That they love their family is the way in which Antigone and Ismene are the same in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban sister princesses Antigone and Ismene both care about the family into which they are born. But Antigone is older and more willing to give physical and verbal proof of her feelings. In contrast is Ismene, who is young, more easily cowed and less willing to express and defend her familial loyalty until she is backed up against the wall and faces the prospect of being alone with her fears and timidity.

Antigone & Ismene
Ismene wouldn't help Antigone bury the body of their brother, but when Antigone is caught she won't let Ismene take any of the blame because she was loyal to the law and not to her family.

That she disdains her sister and dislikes her king is what Antigone respectively conveys in her dialogues with Ismene and Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone appears to disdain Princess Ismene. She in fact calls her basely born even though both share the same genealogy, the same parents and the same royal status. She likewise disparages and dislikes King Creon. She uses the same contradictory, rude language and tone on her uncle as she does on her sister.
Nothing indicates that differences are settled between Antigone and Ismene in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Ismene does not appear in the play after her explosive interaction with her sister Antigone during the latter's trial. Subsequently, Creon indicates that he will release Ismene, as innocent of wrongdoing, and punish Antigone, as the lone perpetrator.
nigah screw you. I aint helpin' antigone she a dumb hoe.
Sisters and cousins is the relationship between Antigone and Ismene in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Antigone and Ismene are the daughters of disgraced Theban monarchs Oedipus and Jocasta. Their parents both are direct descendants of Cadmus, Thebes' founder and first king, but by different grandchildren. Their parents therefore are cousins to each other as are the sisters Antigone and Ismene.
