What are your head canons regarding Kevin?
Yeah, so I have a few but they’re kinda dumb. Here goes nothing.
1) He’s half Canadian and half American. He was actually born in Canada. His mom is actually Haida and was born on a reservation. She sorta reluctantly became the wife of a candy man because she has no living relatives.
2) His parents are divorced. His mother was sick and admitted herself to a hospital. His dad left his old job in Vancouver when he got a new job at the Jawbreaker Factory in Peach Creek…it paid less than his job in Canada, but he just wanted to get away from his wife.
3) His mom gave him the hat as a parting gift, which is why he always wears it.
4) Kevin doesn’t think his dad will remarry but he brings home countless girlfriends who quickly ditch him once they learn he’s the single parent to a brat. He personally doesn’t want another lady moving in and calling herself ‘’mom’’…if his dad wants toremarry he better do it when Kevin moves out. Otherwise, he’ll go live with his cousin in ‘‘Mountain Country’‘.
5) Kevin has a cousin named Ezeke who lives in Colorado, they’re related through their dads. This OC actually belongs to @kaylaamririffle but I love this OC so much…he’s the complete opposite of Kevin which makes their dynamic all the more interesting.
Original comic can be found here.
6) His mom is eventually discharged from the hospital and his dad wants him to visit her during the spring months. Kevin doesn’t particularly like it…his mom’s house is lonely and dreary, and looking at her makes him depressed.
7) His dad doesn’t want his ex-wife living on her own and proposes for her to move in with his brother in Colorado so she can be closer. Kevin secretly wishes his parents won’t get back together because all they did was argue. He knows deep down it’d be nice to be a family again…buthonestly…he’s fine without her… asmuch as he loves his mom, he kinda got used to her not being around…she was in thehospital so long…he forgot what it was like to have a mom…
8) Kevin’s dad actually really really doesn’t like Rolf. I think if his dad was xenophobic against immigrants, it’d give their relationship a very interesting dynamic. I like forbidden friendship stories so maybe Kev’s dad grounds him all the time for hanging out with Rolf like, ‘‘Why on God’s Green Earth is that wild boy playing with my all-American son?’‘
9) I’d make a backstory between him and Eddy but I don’t really have one, lol. I suppose they’ve hated each other for as long as they can remember and they don’t even know why.
That’s all I can think of for now.
