I asked if you had any hcs for what the kids would like to read, what board games would be their favorite and what kind of movies would they be into if they grew up normally!
Alright, sorry this took a while to answer, I couldn’t decide!
- I think Norman would probably have loved Howl’s Moving Castle, there are times where it’s quiet and charming and times where it’s an adventure and also he’d probably love Howl and Sophie and their entire cute romance cause I mean, Norman would. Plus there’s Calcifer and Markle too.
- Ray’s favourite is Bridge To Terabithia, I know it’s all sad and depressing at the end but it’s also so good. I think he’d also like Goodbye Christopher Robyn and UP, they’re full of cute moments and sad moments and they’ll make you cry but they have such wistful, happy yet melancholic endings and if Ray is going to relate to anyone it’s grumpy old Carl (with Emma as his Russell)
- Emma I can imagine would adore Tangled and Spirited Away for the sense of adventure in them, I bet she’d love the idea of sword fighting with a frying pan and immediately after watching challenge Norman and Ray to swordfight with her whilst brandishing one of Isabella’s or Yuugo’s frying pans. Of course, the two would smartly decline, in which case Emma would duel Don instead, who would excitedly accept until they broke a frying pan or two and then Norman and Ray would have to go shopping for new one’s before they’re all found out (it costs two months’ pocket money in total so neither of them are very happy but it’s better than having their friends grounded for two months instead). Spirited Away, at least, only encouraged her to have ridiculously bubbly baths.
-I don’t actually remember much of which books I read as a kid so I’m sorry this is limited to teen books
-I think Ray would like the Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater, it’s a good book guys
- Norman I think would enjoy the Hunger Games, largely for the political aspects but also I can definitely imagine him as a Katniss/Peeta shipper so there’s that. The political side of it is super interesting though, I really think Norman would love it
-Emma I think would love the Lord of the Rings, it’s driving messages are about love and friendship so I really do think she’d adore them. I also think she’d like Lament and Ballad by Maggie Stiefvater cause I mean fairies, I’m sure she’d love it
-Norman likes chess, it’s a game of strategy and that’s where he excels, it’s always fun for him to play against Emma, who makes good moves but doesn’t plan them far enough ahead, he likes teasing her just a little by pointing out all the places she could have beat him in the hopes she’ll learn from it for their next game (and she always does, every match against her is harder than the last). Ray’s much more difficult to win against and Norman really hates when his strategies go awry because of Ray’s own strategies, but that’s why he thinks it’s so fun
-Ray’s favourite board game is Cluedo, best played with 4-5 players to make it more difficult. Solving who did it is always a great way to sharpen deductive skills and also super fun to be smug about. When he’s clever about it he also manages to figure out more than one piece of information at once, which he loves doing. The best part of Cluedo is winning the big stash of sweets they all put together as their prize and seeing Emma’s pouty face when she loses and doesn’t get any sweets (though he always gives in and gives her just one of her favourite)
-Emma’s favourite is monopoly, she likes the strategy of chess and Cluedo but nothing is better than seeing Norman and Ray get mad when they lose because she wins every single time
Thanks for the ask!! This was fun
