Some of my favorite pieces of muse lore:

Valencia has absolutely shot her husband.

Lyri was Val's maid of honor. Both times.

Chance still has a hoodie of Az's that he stole when he was a child.

One of Ava's biggest cravings when pregnant is always marshmallows.

Britt had a zombie bird named Draven and a zombie dog named Lazarus at one point.

A quick breakdown of how the pups see their familial dynamics.

Cadi: older sister/semi-parent, views Chance more like an owner than anything parental, occasionally acts as a something of a service dog (her choice, mutually beneficial to her and Chance). Legally had custody of Sable, Salem, and Genesis after she turned 21. Chance legally adopted her before she turned 18. Views Chance's kids as almost like cousins

Sable: views Cadi as her older sister (which she is) and Salem and Genesis as her younger siblings (they are biologically her niece and nephew but she grew up with them). Views Chance as more of an uncle and Vaughn as a brother in law. Views Chance's kids more like cousins, similar to Cadi.

Genesis: views Cadi as a mix of mom and older sister, Sable solely as her sister. Salem is her twin and she does view him as such. Vaughn is a weird mix of uncle and dad, Chance is a weird mix of dad and grandfather. She often refers to Chance as her grandfather only because, legally, that's his role in her life. Has a more complicated view of Chance's kids but is also closer to some of them than Cadi, Sable, and Salem. Some of them she views as siblings (Dahmer and Gacy especially), others she views more as cousins (IE Berk who is not as around). Occasionally refers to them as her aunts and uncles for legal reasons.

Salem: views Cadi, Sable, and Vaughn as siblings, Genesis is his twin and he sees her as such. Chance is the only person he recognizes as a parental figure in his life but still refers to him as his grandfather to other people because that's how he's listed on legal documents. Will say Chance's kids are his aunts and uncles but views them more as siblings and treats them as such.

The first time Genesis saw Chance doing Gacy's hair, she asked him to do hers next. She fell asleep before he was even done brushing it and for years after that, he would brush her hair at night to help her sleep.

Chance taught Salem and Genesis how to drive when they were fourteen. He taught Cadi how to drive shortly after taking the pups in and Sable when she was medically cleared in her teens. He wanted to make sure they were able to get themselves places instead of relying on others.

Because Dahmer went through a pretty heavy Phantom of the Opera obsession, Chance knows the words to every song in that musical. Because Genesis has a thing for musicals in general, Chance knows the words to a lot of songs from a lot of different ones.

With his victim type being pretty blondes and the fact that Chance carves detailed, delicate feathers on the bodies of his victims, he was nicknamed The Angel Killer by the media. He is not fond of this nickname.

Due to the injuries she sustained as a child, Sable spent most of her life in and out of the hospital and undergoing multiple surgeries. Chance went to every single appointment with her and, while he doesn't go with her now that she's an adult (unless she asks him to), he does check in on her after every appointment.

Chance is terrible with birthdays and doing nice things for others, but he always tries to do something for the kids for their birthdays. Genesis is the one he finds the easiest because she's so highly food-motivated that he just finds some sort of carnival somewhere and buys her a bunch of greasy food and delivers it to her apartment.
