Why was Nico posed facing away from the viewer?
Because he pretty much hates everyone else in the picture, and is not really a part of the team. I mean, he doesn't hate Brendan (yet) because Brendan's under his command. But everyone else has been a pain in his butt since he started patrolling the area, and Sierra's been downright confrontational. Also he can't wield a light-weapon (probably, i mean he probly could with training, but i have yet to decide whether he does in the story)
The colors vaguely correspond to each character's...personality? soul? fighting spirit? that sort of thing. The colors can also vary slightly depending on the emotional state of the wielder.
What are their favorite desserts/treats?
Caden likes pie (apple or blackberry), Erica likes really thick hot chocolate when it's cold and mochi ice cream when it's hot, Sierra likes fruit-flavored popsicles or fruity frozen yogurt, Brendan likes malted milkshakes, and Nico likes german chocolate cake or baked apples.
What does each of their bedtime routine's look like?
Sierra used to be good at going to sleep on time when the team was together, now she stays up late getting into fights online, Erica always winds down with a cup of tea and a book before going to bed (asking Sierra if she wants any is her subtle hint to go to sleep), Caden sometimes gets online real late and checks if Sierra is still online (sometimes to tell her to go to sleep, sometimes to call and wake her up real early the next morning, just to piss her off)
Do they plan meals out ahead of time, or decide what to make for dinner when the time rolls around?
Caden and Sierra make it up as they go along, Erica plans meals sometimes, Brendan and Nico mostly get their meals where they work, but Brendan likes to get takeout in town. The eception is weekends at Sierra and Erica's place, they make a gigantic brunch and invite friends over to watch crappy movies all morning (Caden's the only one who comes over every weekend, but their old captain and some friend from other Light teams show up every once in a while).
Is Erica wearing tights or really tall boots?
tights, with matching shoes, like ya do~ girl's got swanky fashion sense even when fighting the forces of evil
Does anybody here have an exceptionally strong sense? what about an exceptionally weak one? (For example: I have a terrible sense of smell and a great sense of hearing)
hmmm, well, Caden's probly got really good vision, Sierra's got a good sense of hearing, Nico's eyes have been worse since he got his black eyes, and Brendan's have gotten better since he got his second eyes. Erica...probly had really good reflexes and is a good judge of distance since she uses throwing knives and daggers.
