Cousin
Aunt is Cousin's mother. She treats her daughter very poorly and states that she has always been a constant disappointment. After the argument over the custody of the four siblings was settled and Aunt lost, she gave everything they ever received from them away, had a bonfire in the backyard and didn't let her daughter have contact with the siblings. When Aunt found out that Cousin tried to go see them, she grounded her for months and didn't let her use the phone or have email access. When Aunt finds out that Cousin is pregnant, she finds it scandalous at first and throws the pregnancy test in her direction. She also makes an appointment for an adoption behind Cousin's back. After the shipwreck she tries to apologize since she doesn't want to lose Cousin.

Siblings
Aunt is Brother, Main Character, Party-Girl Sister and Bookish Sister's maternal aunt. The reason she resents them is because she felt Nana always favored Main Character's side of the family. When their parents died, Aunt wanted to have custody of the siblings but Nana was chosen over her, despite Nana's health. Aunt was mad and hurt about it and forbid every contact between her daughter and the siblings. If you were nice to Cousin, it is revealed that Main Character kept writing Cousin and that Aunt kept all letters away from her. Aunt confirms it when Cousin asks her about it.
