So your Jarvis has siblings, eh? Have they ever visited Jarvis in America? Have they met Stark?
Yes. Yes he does. Jarvis has two siblings who are a lot older than him, a brother named Bertram (Bertie), and a sister who I didn't give a name to, and then Jarvis came along as kind of an afterthought (which is probably a polite way of saying 'accident') and he has a younger sister, Agnes (Aggie), who is only a couple of years younger. I liked the idea of Jarvis, due to the age differences, being sort of the youngest, oldest, and middle sibling at the same time.
I just created them for my First Days fic, so I don't have too much information about them. Bertie was fighting in the war, so I don't even know if he survived (it's me, so he probably did). I suppose they might have visited Jarvis at some point, but Howard didn't meet them while he was in England, so he'd only have met them if they visited.
Howard: So, if you get more than one Jarvis in a room, the efficiency must go up by at least 50%, right? Jarvis: I think Bertram is much more efficient than I am, sir. Howard; Christ, is he on Benzedrine? Jarvis: No, sir, he's just the oldest.
ETA: Nope, I'm wrong about my own headcanon, apparently. I was just rereading 'The Virtues of Being Useful' and it turns out I gave Jarvis two older brothers, and an older sister.
So it goes:
Bertram Unnamed Brother (slight age gap) Unnamed Sister (big age gap) Jarvis Agnes
This is how continuity errors happen. Constant vigilance!
