𖦹 His shower routine has too many steps and products.
𖦹 Nash uses 3-in-1s.
𖦹 Xander once tried to find his own shampoo formula.
𖦹 Jameson uses whatever smells good.
𖦹 He is also really picky with the texture of the products he uses.
𖦹 Jameson was a very picky eater as a child. It was a texture thing.
𖦹 Xander was not. He would eat anything that looks edible.
𖦹 He did food combinations that made Grayson cringe and make a face.
𖦹 Grayson hates his food touching.
𖦹 Jameson hated sand on his feet when he was small and had worn swimming slippers whenever they went to the beach.
𖦹 He eventually grew out of it.
𖦹 Grayson is afraid of sunburns. SPF 50 is mandatory.
𖦹 On the other hand, Jameson despises sunscreen and always gets burnt.
𖦹 When they were kids Jamie, Gray and Xander would team up to bury Nash in the sand.
𖦹 Aunt Zara was the closest thing they had to a mother growing up.
𖦹 Xander, being the youngest, had a phase where he kept calling Zara ‘mom’. She would always correct him and sternly tell him not to.
𖦹 Xander was so fascinated with Nash when he was small. Because he was so tall and was the coolest big brother in his eyes.
𖦹 Jameson and Grayson both used to be such crybabies. Every single fight would end in tears.
𖦹 Gray was a silent cryer. He’d pout and look super sad, always would make adults take his side. While Jameson would rage, stomping his feet, sobbing, throwing tantrums.
𖦹 Xander was mostly a happy baby. He almost never cried but could definitely be rage baited. Jameson and Grayson would make him angry on purpose and he would either whine or go tell on them.
𖦹 Xander is a genius, so his grades at school would be impressive. Grayson would also have really good grades, because he would work hard and wouldn’t settle for anything below perfect.
𖦹 Jameson wanted to be good in school like his brothers too. He studied and attended every class. But he never got good enough. He wasn’t Xander or had Grayson’s attention span to study. Sitting in class made him itch just to do something. But there was also the constant nagging of his grandfather’s voice in the back of his head, saying he was the most ordinary brother of the all. And Jameson was just proving right. So he stopped caring. He slacked off and skipped class. Got detention. At least this way, he would be seen, he wouldn’t have to fail even though he was trying. Making a mess of everything was something he was good at.
𖦹 Grayson loved to play pretend. He had a toy kitchen set and loved it. All the other boys found it boring. But when there were times he persuaded Jameson to play, he would always put plushies in the oven to cook them alive and would laugh while Grayson tried to save them.
𖦹 Little Jameson hated to wear socks the way Grayson hated pants.
𖦹 Grayson wore his socks to bed.
𖦹 Nash and Alisa used to play house and made Xander the baby. Jameson was the dog.
𖦹 When Grayson and Jameson were small Gray would insist on carrying baby Jameson everywhere. But because he was barely bigger, it would be mostly him dragging him around.
𖦹 Toddler Gray adored his little brothers. He would call them his babies.
𖦹 Grayson would always tell Jameson he loved her before Emily happened.
𖦹 Grayson and Jameson modeled for expensive children brands when they were small.
𖦹 Nash never modeled.
𖦹 Xander had diaper ads as a baby.
𖦹 Later, Grayson dropped out of modeling because he didn’t like it. But Jameson continued to do occasional shoots.
𖦹 Jameson did runways.
𖦹 Xander loved tea parties as a kid. They always used actual antique tea cups and ate scones.
𖦹 Jameson wears jewelry. Chain necklaces, rings, a couple of ear piercings etc.
𖦹 Grayson doesn’t wear any jewelry up until he gets engaged to Lyra. Then he wears his wedding band.
𖦹 The only kind of jewelry Xander wears are friendship bracelets.
𖦹 Nash wears his wedding band. No other rings or bracelets because he almost always gets his hands dirty doing stuff. But he sometimes wears necklaces under his shirt.
𖦹 Jameson is the brother who is most likely to start a food fight at school cafeteria.
𖦹 Jameson had a group of friends at school and sometimes dragged Grayson to sit with them or play hooky on the roof.
𖦹 All his friends thought Grayson was a killjoy, Jameson shut them all up every time.
𖦹 After Emily starts at their high school though, things change.
𖦹 Jameson starts walking the corridors with his arm around Emily, takes her to sit with his group, where Grayson used to sit. And he just watches, feeling both like Jameson was stealing the girl he liked and Emily was stealing his brother.
𖦹 Nash used to hold baby Gray’s hand, so Grayson would always try to hold Jamie’s hand like his big brother did for him. But baby Jameson would hate the way his fingers felt weird, would never like the hand positioning. He would always wiggle his hand.

𖦹 Nash was the first brother to discover the secret passages in the house and showed them to his brothers.
𖦹 The younger three all had a phase where they tried to copy Nash’s accent and failed miserably.
𖦹 They tried building secret passageways in their treehouse just like they have in the House.
𖦹 They had board game tournaments that lasted for days.
𖦹 Xander was the brother that gave the others random hugs but would immediately start wiggling if someone else hugged him.
𖦹 All the brothers had tried sneaking in pets that are definitely not meant to be indoors at some point. They got caught every time and were forced to return them.
𖦹 Grayson had a pet goldfish. He secretly cried when it died.
