felixs parents are obviously absent and busy a lot evil justins parents are god knows where, so he seems to stick with felix a lot. no idea where theyre at and ethan has an adopted brother, nolan, but is like TERRIFIED?? i know its as a joke though - hows the parents thing w him anyway?

ok you know since we're on this topic this is actually a great opportunity for me to share this picture; I wanted to wait until I've drawn every single parent but it's going to take 75896 business days so here is a small handful of them.

for all the jocks who aren't here:

felix's family is kind of an Evil™ version of barry's family. I do not know if I've mentioned this but his dad owns a business probably called Wolfe Enterprises or something and his mom is a lawyer. yes his mom was his dad's lawyer before they got married. yes it's weird.

evil justin is uh. still a mystery if I'm being real. though I feel like he might be a youngest brother whose siblings are adults.

ethan's parents are divorced and he and nolan live with their mom.

louis and laurel's parents are together, though an undetermined number of extended family members also live there. their home is like a major family property that's been passed down through the generations since like the late 19th century. everyone in their family has a cloak on standby in case you were wondering.

I could have sworn I posted something ages ago but I can't even find anything in my computer files

the lore reason: self expression through fashion tends to be a more socially accessible concept to young girls and nevin used to be sheltered so he has not fully wrapped his brain around the concept of expressing himself through fashion, because it requires him to do it completely of his own volition. it is a new concept for him and wearing a knee length coat and soft accessories is him taking baby steps. he is also full of stupid opinions on things he hasn't taken the time to learn about

probably! it would be kind of insane if the School King That Everyone In Foxfield Knows Basketball Team actually sucked LMAO that would be really funny though

Can Justin speak or write Korean?

Also, do Niki, Cory, and Justin like East Asian food? (I’m not sure if people who were born and raised in the U.S. and have grown up eating typical American dishes will actually come to like authentic East Asian cuisine…)

I’m also curious if any of them have ever been to Japan, China, or South Korea…

justin only knows a little korean, because only his mom is korean and his family mostly only speaks english at home.

I would say they do like and are accustomed to east asian food; it's common for kids who have parents from those cultures to grow up eating those foods because their parents were cooking them. justin loves food so he will try basically anything, and he would've grown up eating a lot of korean food made by his mom. and niki's parents were both born and raised in japan, so most of the food she'd be eating at home would be east asian. in the US, you don't always have access to the right ingredients unless you live near an asian market, so most meals will be asian-american fusion food lol. for cory, he is also eats predominantly east asian food at home, and he was raised to not be very picky.

when it comes to food in the US, almost all the food here is the result of a specific culture moving here and then trying to recreate their home country's food with local ingredients (which is why we have things like american italian food, american chinese food and texmex). so if you live in a place that has a diverse population and high immigration rate, more kinds of cuisine will have been absorbed into the local culture. so kids who grow up in areas with more cultural variance (and with parents who take the time to introduce them to new kinds of food) tend to be exposed to more kinds of food, as opposed to kids who grow up in heavily white rural areas. most american staple foods are foods that evolved from other cultures that came to live here. so many of us are very used to eating lots of different kinds of food!
