#*about my mcs

GET TO KNOW MY MC’S ASK MEME.   /   APRIL KEMPER.  ( also requested by @rainesclan & @beaumontbash )

how tall are they?

5’8”. taller than both vera & katherine, shorter than both nik & cal. I imagine there’s probably only an inch or so difference between her & vera though, whereas katherine is small but mighty. 

how do they tend to dress?

I’d describe her style as effortlessly cool. she’s all about chunky heeled boots & leather jackets, y'know? I’d say a typical outfit for her would definitely consist of both of those & some black ripped jeans, paired with either a simple tee if she’s going for a casual look or a sleek, button-up shirt if it’s for going out in the evening (though let’s be real, it’s probably only half buttoned). she’ll almost always choose pants over a dress or skirt when given the choice, but on the odd occasion where she will choose to wear a dress, it’ll almost certainly be something short & figure-hugging. she’s not a huge fan of loose, flowy items.

do they like how they look?

yes. she’s by no means vain, but she does know that she’s someone who’d typically be considered conventionally attractive. she’s especially confident in her hair and fashion sense.

are they an only child or do they have any siblings?

besides tialo, no. growing up, it was always just her & her mother.

are they a morning person or night owl?

definitely a night owl.

are they a cat person or a dog person?

dog person! in high school she had a dachshund named rufus who she absolutely doted on.

got any favourite foods?

she loves fruit. bananas, strawberries, mangoes and peaches are her favourites. by extension, she loves literally any food/drink that’s any of those flavours.

how about favourite drinks?

cherry coke definitely ranks highly with her. she’d also never turn down a good, fruity cocktail. 

what are their favourite movies/tv shows?

she loves american horror story. her favourite seasons are probably murder house, asylum and hotel, but she loves them all. moviewise, she’s a total star wars fanatic. once he finds this out, nik starts winding her up by ‘accidentally’ mixing up star wars and star trek just to see if it pisses her off. 

do they have any hidden talents?

she can play the drums! she was actually in a punk rock band in college. unfortunately, the band fell apart after the singer and bassist formed a tumultuous relationship which came to a very messy end. 

do they believe in love at first sight?

no. she believes you can form a connection, but you need to get to know a person before it can be considered love.

who is their love interest?

vera reimonenq.

what are they afraid of?

bloodwraiths.

what are their guilty pleasures?

despite generally listening to rock and punk music, she’s definitely got a few avery wilshere pop numbers on her spotify playlist.

what was their dream job as a kid? is it still their dream?

she cycled through a lot of ‘dream jobs’ as a kid - chef, fashion designer, acrobat, doctor were some of the careers she fantasised about having. heck, there was even a three month long period where she wanted to be a professional wrestler. none of those aspirations ever stuck though. 

have they ever broken a bone?

her right arm and her left pinky finger.

have they ever been in trouble with the law?

no.

+ three other random facts about them!

GET TO KNOW MY MC’S ASK MEME.   /   SUMMER KERSEY.

how tall are they?

she’s 5’7”, about three inches taller than alexis.

how do they tend to dress?

her style summed up in three words would be ‘beachy boho babe’. think lots of floaty dresses, lots of flowy/lacy off the shoulder tops paired with ripped shorts & floral beach kimonos, and lots of sunhats & sandals. tying into this aesthetic, she generally tends to wear more understated, lighter shades such as white, blush pink and baby blue.

do they like how they look?

yes! she especially likes her smile, which she inherited from her father; it’s normally the first thing people compliment her on besides her hair.

are they an only child or do they have any siblings?

alexis is her only sibling.

are they a morning person or night owl?

summer’s more of a morning person. whilst staying in turtle bay for summer break when she was sixteen, she got into the habit of waking up early, whipping up a mango smoothie and going for a morning jog along the promenade. this is a habit that’s stuck with her ever since.

are they a cat person or a dog person?

she likes both but tends to favour dogs more. growing up she had a labrador named skipper who she absolutely adored. summer was devastated when she passed away shortly before high school graduation.

got any favourite foods?

banana chocolate chip ice cream is her ultimate weakness. she can easily eat a pint in one sitting. she also loves snacking on potato chips and popcorn. 

how about favourite drinks?

as I mentioned above, she has a real affinity for mango smoothies. she also likes caramel frappuccino’s.

what are their favourite movies/tv shows?

her favourite show is definitely gossip girl. her and alexis put the first episode on once when they couldn’t find anything else to watch on netflix and got so hooked that they ended up binge-watching the entire series in the span of a few days. for movies, she loves all the cheesy 80’s comedies that her dad made her watch as a kid, if for nothing else than the nostalgia.

do they have any hidden talents?

she can play the ukulele. she owns a teal coloured one adorned with various stickers and it’s her prized possession.

do they believe in love at first sight?

no. she believes in immediate attraction, but insists you can’t truly love someone until you have time to form a meaningful connection with them.

who is their love interest?

currently she’s keeping her options open. she figures that you’re only young once and she’s a natural flirt anyway, so at the moment she just wants to go with the flow and see what happens.

what are they afraid of?

she’s developed a phobia of hospitals since her dad got sick.

what are their guilty pleasures?

she’s secretly a huge harry potter nerd. 

what was their dream job as a kid? is it still their dream?

she wanted to be a pro surfer. while she still enjoys riding the waves, it’s definitely not something she’d want to pursue as a career. her goal is to work in event planning.

have they ever broken a bone?

no, she hasn’t.

have they ever been in trouble with the law?

only when a house party she attended in high school got busted by the cops. her parents weren’t best impressed when an officer knocked on their door at 2am with a tipsy summer in tow.

+ three other random facts about them!

GET TO KNOW MY MC’S ASK MEME.   /   HARPER VANCE.

how tall are they?

roughly 5′7″.

how do they tend to dress?

she generally leans towards more typically ‘girly’ items, favouring wearing skirts over pants and the like. in my playthrough she wore the pink sweater outfit so you could definitely say she’s one of my most clean-cut/preppy mc’s in regards to style.

do they like how they look?

somewhat. she doesn’t tend to talk about it but growing up she definitely struggled with her confidence. she becomes a lot more comfortable in her appearance after her parents die, wearing the fact that she resembles her mom so closely with pride.

are they an only child or do they have any siblings?

she’s got elliot, and she wouldn’t trade him for the world.

are they a morning person or night owl?

a mixture of both tbh.

are they a cat person or a dog person?

she’s had the cats vs dogs debate with elliot more times than she can count; she’s staunchly team cat.

she’s got the biggest sweet tooth! cinnamon rolls, brownies and apple pie are some of her ultimate faves.

anything fruity!

GET TO KNOW MY MC’S ASK MEME.   /   CADENCE DORIAN.

i don’t often keep the default name but this name was too pretty for me to change.

how tall are they?

she’s quite petite! I envision her as being around the 5′3″ mark; she’s definitely shorter than both f!avery and f!raleigh, who I personally headcanon as 5′8″ and 5′5″ respectively. 

how do they tend to dress?

cadence definitely likes to consider herself as being quite fashion savvy, frequently keeping an eye on what’s on trend; shane likes to affectionately tease her over this every time she comes back from the drug store with a stack of magazines, but she insists it’s all a necessary part of cultivating the right image for her music career. unfortunately for her, her trendy tastes don’t always align with her shoestring budget; hence she does a lot of shopping in thrift stores, priding herself on her ability to sniff out hidden gems at a bargain. typically when buying clothes, she’s drawn to floral prints and bright colours. her overall style tends to lean more towards typically feminine items - you’re far more likely to find her wearing a cute dress with a denim jacket than jeans and a hoodie. 

do they like how they look?

for the most part, yes. like anyone, she has her days where she’ll feel a little more insecure or conscious about her appearance, but overall she’s happy with how she looks.

are they an only child or do they have any siblings?

she’s an only child. 

are they a morning person or night owl?

definitely a night owl! she feels at her most creative at night. 

are they a cat person or a dog person?

she tends to lean more towards cats, though she’s a total softie when it comes to animals and loves both.

got any favourite foods?

she loves indian food; the spicier the better! seriously, no meal will ever hit the spot for her like a good curry. she’s also got a crazy addiction to those yogurt covered strawberry fruit snacks. you can guarantee she’s got a packet of them in her purse at all times. 

how about favourite drinks?

working at smoothie star, you’d think she’d be sick of smoothies by now but no. buy her a strawberry & banana smoothie and she’ll love you forever. 

what are their favourite movies/tv shows?

she loves rom-coms. when harry met sally is her absolute all time favourite movie. as for tv shows, she likes lighthearted shows that’ll make her laugh like parks & rec and brooklyn 99. 

do they have any hidden talents?

besides the not-so-hidden talent of singing, she’s also a pretty good artist. whenever she hits a wall whilst songwriting, she’ll start doodling to try to get her creative juices flowing. 

do they believe in love at first sight?

yes, she’s a true romantic at heart. 

who is their love interest?

f!avery wilshere.

what are they afraid of?

besides the obvious fear of failure, she’s petrified of clowns. 

what are their guilty pleasures?

cheesy eighties music, for sure. 

what was their dream job as a kid? is it still their dream? 

unsurprisingly, she wanted to be a singer. it’s been her dream since she was old enough to talk and will be her dream until the day she dies. 

have they ever broken a bone?

nope! 

have they ever been in trouble with the law?

also no.

GET TO KNOW MY MC’S ASK MEME.   /   KAI PARK.

how tall are they?

she’s pretty average in height - about 5′5″.

how do they tend to dress?

she likes to keep a balance between comfortable and cool. her go-to outfit would be black ripped jeans, a cropped tee, a leather or bomber jacket and either converse or vans, both of which she has more pairs than any human could ever possibly need. when it comes to special occasions or hitting the town however, comfort goes out the window; it’s all about looking good. seriously, getting ready is an all day event for her and nadia whenever they’re going out somewhere in the evening.

do they like how they look?

yes! of all my mc’s, she’s definitely one of the most confident in regards to her appearance. 

are they an only child or do they have any siblings?

an only child, however nadia is practically a sister to her.

are they a morning person or night owl?

good luck waking her up before 10am. seriously.

are they a cat person or a dog person?

if she wasn’t already a dog person, dipper definitely swayed things that way.

got any favourite foods?

kai is a serious junk food addict. if she could live off of pizza, burgers and doughnuts, she would. 

how about favourite drinks?

peach iced tea is a fave for her! 

what are their favourite movies/tv shows?

she’s actually a horror movie fanatic! nadia hates it whenever it’s kai’s choice for movie night because she’s totally squeamish and for kai, the gorier the movie is the better. as for tv, she’s a big fan of shows like criminal minds.

she’s extremely flexible - she did gymnastics all the way through from childhood to high school.

do they believe in love at first sight?

definitely!

damien nazario. 

what are they afraid of?

losing the people she loves, especially after the events of perfect match. post-book I headcanon her as struggling with some pretty severe night terrors regarding this. 

what are their guilty pleasures?

trashy reality tv. blame nadia for getting her hooked. 

what was their dream job as a kid? is it still their dream?

as a kid, her and nadia had big plans to become a world famous popstar duo. suffice to say, that’s no longer her dream.

have they ever broken a bone?

have they ever been in trouble with the law?

besides a speeding ticket in college, no.

+ three other random facts about them!

GET TO KNOW MY MC’S ASK MEME.   /   IRIS WHEELER.

how tall are they?

she’s 5’4”. 

how do they tend to dress?

her style is very much relaxed. typically, she likes to wear baggy sweaters and  sweatshirts with leggings or loose fitting tees with denim shorts. pair that with some sneakers and she’s good to go.

do they like how they look?

truthfully, she’s a little insecure about her looks. she considers herself to be quite plain; she isn’t of course, but that’s how she perceives herself. she does eventually grow out of this insecurity whilst at college, the events of the book having helped increase her confidence in herself massively. 

are they an only child or do they have any siblings?

an only child.

are they a morning person or night owl?

a complete and utter morning person, no question. she loves to get up at around 5am and just sit outside on the porch with a mug of a coffee and an orange juice (why choose when you can have both?), watching the sunrise before she starts her day. her friends all think she’s nuts for this.

are they a cat person or a dog person?

she loves both! when she was a kid, she begged her parents for a puppy or kitten but they said no. eventually they came to the compromise that she could have a smaller pet and she’s had hamsters ever since. her current one is named pipsqueak.

got any favourite foods?

this girl loves cereal!!! literally all kinds, she’s obsessed. she would 100% be content just eating cereal for all three meals a day. 

how about favourite drinks?

fresh orange juice.

what are their favourite movies/tv shows?

iris loves nature documentaries, often watching them together with her dad. when she’s studying and doesn’t feel like listening to music, she’ll often put a show like friends or himym on in the background because they’re the kind of lighthearted shows you can idly watch without having to pay much attention. for movies, she loves the magic and nostalgia of disney. her absolute favourite is the hunchback of notre dame.

do they have any hidden talents?

origami! she teaches all of the crew how to fold paper cranes. colt keeps getting frustrated with his until he eventually screws the paper into a ball and declares it an origami rock instead. 

do they believe in love at first sight?

no. she’s far too logical for that.

who is their love interest?

she’s very much conflicted between mona and colt, having formed a strong connection with both of them. she tears herself up with guilt over it every day, no matter how many times they both reassure her that they’re okay with being patient while she figures things out. 

what are they afraid of?

failure/letting people down. despite working her ass off for all of her achievements, she still experiences feelings of imposter syndrome sometimes, as though she’s undeserving.

what are their guilty pleasures?

eating peanut butter straight from the jar.

what was their dream job as a kid? is it still their dream?

prior to taking an interest in science and pursuing a career in that field, she wanted to be a lawyer.

+ three other random facts about them!

GET TO KNOW MY MC’S ASK MEME.   /   ELI RUSSELL.

how tall are they?

6'2", he tol.

how do they tend to dress?

if I were to sum up eli’s style, it’d be casual cool. in my playthrough, he’s pretty much always wearing the ‘denim digs’ free outfit which is the one consisting of a hoodie under a ripped denim jacket and honestly I think that’s a pretty good representation of the kind of outfit he likes to wear. he definitely does have a flashy streak though, albeit a small one. this is especially prominent when it comes to formal attire. whilst he won’t wear anything too outrageous, he’d favour something with a touch more pizzazz than a plain black tux. he insists this is down to shreya’s influence and that before meeting her, he would have been perfectly content with something simple. she just replies ‘thank god you did meet me then’ whenever he says this. 

do they like how they look?

eli can border on slight cockiness sometimes when it comes to his appearance. he’s good looking and he knows it; when you pair that with the fact that he’s a natural flirt, it’s no surprise that he’s the most vain of my male mc’s.

are they an only child or do they have any siblings?

he honestly finds it crazy to think that he grew up believing that he was an only child because he cannot imagine a life without atlas now. 

are they a morning person or night owl?

he’s one of those annoyingly chipper morning people, no matter how little sleep he’s running on. he jokes it’s the sun-att in him.

are they a cat person or a dog person?

he’s a gorgue person.

got any favourite foods?

NACHOS. he’s obsessed with nachos. but they’ve gotta be loaded with a mountain of melted cheese, salsa, sour cream and guac.as for attuned dishes, despite his initial disastrous experience with them where he vastly underestimated their heat, he’s acquired a real addiction to dragon links. whenever they’re available at the buffet, you can guarantee he’ll be piling his plate high with them.

how about favourite drinks?

mountain dew and grape soda.

what are their favourite movies/tv shows?

he loves the crown and the flame and gets all of his friends completely addicted to it, which he soon regrets when zeph starts knocking on his door at 2am to moan ‘but they can’t kill leon! hasn’t kenna lost enough already?’. it’s unclear whether shreya is more pissed over the fact that zeph interrupted her beauty sleep or that he broke the pact the pend pals made not to watch ahead without each other.

do they have any hidden talents?

he’s really good at doing impressions, something which he’ll often use as an icebreaker.

do they believe in love at first sight?

to a degree.

who is their love interest?

when he first arrived at penderghast, he engaged in light flirtation with all of the love interests, but he’s now currently dating beckett harrington.

what are they afraid of?

he fears death big time.

what are their guilty pleasures?

watching cheesy buddy cop movies.

what was their dream job as a kid? is it still their dream?

as a kid he wanted to be a stand up comedian, which is most definitely not his dream any longer. considering how lost he already felt in life at hartfeld, he’s honestly not sure what he wants to do now that a whole new realm of possibilities has been opened up to him since arriving at penderghast.

have they ever broken a bone?

yes, he broke his leg falling off a ladder when he was fourteen.

have they ever been in trouble with the law?

nope!
