Hot Cousin Energy

That flirty, nostalgic, low-key forbidden vibe you get from someone who feels almost like family — but not enough to stop your brain from being horny.
He smells like summer. He plays soccer barefoot. He calls your mom "auntie" and gives long hugs.
You don’t really know him, but your inner teen is like: “Oh no.”

It’s not about actual cousins. It’s about that familiar but off-limits heat.

Created by Matt Colaça — because sometimes the heart wants what the family reunion forbids.
— “Why am I blushing? He’s literally just my friend’s cousin.”
— “Exactly. That’s hot cousin energy, babe.”
