17 for Kingston 28 for Quinn 32 for Leo

17. how did they spend their summers/free time as a child?

As a kid, Kingston really liked a children's variety tv program that often featured a magician. He spent a lot of his free time learning and practicing illusions. His dad, Charles, taught him some of what he knew and the two would bond by learning new illusions from books and going to magic shops together.

28. how do they show that they care about someone? how do they express that they don't like someone?

Quinn takes care of those she cares about. She's quick to go into helper mom mode and will immediately look for solutions to make people feel better.

Quinn is also very affectionate with her loved ones. She'll take any opportunity to make physical contact, give encouragement, and let people know that she cares about them.

If Quinn doesn't like you, you probably know it because she's not good at masking the anger or disgust on her face. (She might also yell at you, depending on what you did.)

(Quinn when Aries is around)

32. do they have any habits that aren't particularly self-destructive, just maybe odd?

Oh man, Leo has so many self-destructive habits it's hard picking out the mundane ones. But let's see...

Leo is pretty nosy and has a habit of listening in on other people's conversations. He bonds with Cupcake and Daisy over gossip.

Being the kingdom's treasurer, circus producer, and son of two bank CEOs, Leo has a habit he's trying to shake of seeing items and immediately determining their monetary value.

Leo always wants the latest version of technology. Like, his ePhone could be perfectly fine, but he'll toss it as soon as the newest one is released. (Claudette and Charlie have already called dibs on his current phone.)

The full image of the picture King George kept on his desk. It's him and his best friend, Charles, at George's wedding.

Oh wait, that's not the full image...

Ah, here it is!

Just us and your friend Steve Charles!"

👻 GHOST - do they believe in ghosts? what are their "ghostly experiences", if any?

Yeah, Kingston used to believe in ghosts:

Early in his time in Clowny Island, Kingston would see visions of his parents staring at him in the dark. No expression or movement or any indication that they actually saw him. Just standing and staring.

He would see them at night after a flashback or if he was particularly stressed. When Kingston told his preacher grandfather, he said that it must mean that his parents are watching over him. So young Kingston tried to see his 'ghost' parents as good sign, rather than being afraid of them or feeling guilty.

The 'ghosts' started out as a once in while thing, but soon they started visiting every night. And Kingston lost a lot of sleep.

After finally telling his friends about the 'ghosts', Quinn, Penelope, and Leo insisted on spending the night to try and help him sleep.

During their sleepover, his friends noticed that the light from the 'ghosts' were coming from Kingston himself. It turned out that he had inherited his mother's ability to manipulate light and his 'ghosts' were a projection from his own mind.

He hasn't believed in ghosts since then.

I had a nightmare where Kingston was kidnapped and accused of crimes he didn't commit and was tortured for it. Please hug my poor baby ;-;

Why, Anon, what would make you think that could happen?
