My family is extensive. Or non-existent. It's a matter of perspective, and perspective is flexible. You do what you have to do for it, because of it, and you try to keep it whole, even if that means removing parts.
It doesn't matter if they're gone, because they're always still there.
(Sidenote: Variant is one of those stories that I periodically think about redoing, or at least touching up. It's one of my favourite that I've written, but not so much for *how* it was written, you know?)
