Question about the EAM au: Have Sylvie and Zora ever tried to talk about Zora's hatred for epithets? You know, since Sylvie specializes in epithet-related issues and Zora seems to have lot of issues with those things

it takes a whole year of living together before Zora finally agrees to any "therapy" talk but once she finally does, she starts actually. hanging out? with Sylvie???? they walk in the front door with ice cream and an old Wii game and the rest of the family is like "since when do YOU guys hang out????????"

For the EAM true ending, any headcanons for a game night? Either boardgames or Mario Kart, Mario Party, etc. Whichever is easier for you.

Mario Party/Mario Kart! (Their mains are all here!)

Molly isn't huge on competitive games, but she'll happily play anything Giovanni wants to. He always makes it fun.

Giovanni LOVES the "colorful Mario characters commit crimes against each other" series of games. He always picks a villain and role-plays his character out loud while playing.

Sylvie pretends to be nonchalant, but he cares way too much about winning and is trying REALLY hard to beat Giovanni Specifically.

Mera is a sore loser. It's better for everyone if you just let her win.

Indus solely tries to help Mera win! Sometimes his help ends up as more of a hinderance, though...

Ramsey is just playing for fun; he doesn't care if he wins or loses. It might be a little too tempting to go after Mera, though—her reactions are just so good!

Percy is VERY frustrated by the unfair nature of the games and how much Mario Party specifically is about stealing from one another. It takes Molly a while to get her to accept that it's just a game.

Zora is always ready to play, and seems like she'll be a good and fun opponent, but oops! She's Also A Sore Loser. Do not pit her and Mera against each other or it will be a terrible time for the whole house.

Howie is uninterested in games. The kids convinced him to play Mario Kart ONE TIME after months of badgering, at which point he picked a standard kart, absolutely destroyed everyone, and returned to work without a word.

Bonus Guests:

Phoenica loves to play, but she is purely here for the cute aesthetics. She will lose on purpose if you ask her to, but honestly, you don't have to ask her. She's going to lose anyway.

Trixie is competitive in the fun way—the best part of the game is trash-talking each other and deciding who is your Eternal Rival. She's never actually upset when she loses.

Meryl goes into panic mode and screams a lot during minigames. She's... maybe not the best person to play with.

Yoomtah cheats by connecting herself to the TV. Nobody will play with her anymore.

EAM Family wrestling, or going to a professional wrestling show either way would be fun.

EAM going to a pro wrestling show! :)

Giovanni always roots for the heels. In wrestling, sometimes they even win!

Zora hates that the whole sport is fake and thinks they should shed some REAL blood in there. Unless we're going by RSR rules, in which case she thinks wrestling is AWESOME and more people should bring weapons into the ring.

Percy is initially wary of such a violent pastime, but is quickly won over by the valiant heroes and their trials. They are SO BRAVE, even when the opponent is cheating! (Nobody tell her it's all fake.)

Ramsey is just enjoying the multitude of snacks he snuck in. And the shirtless men.

Sylvie is also enjoying Ramsey's snacks and the shirtless men.

Mera is there to cheer on yell at Indus, who's brand-new to the wrestling scene. Despite not understanding the rules, he's doing great.

Molly is just here to support Giovanni, but she got lost on her way to the bathrooms and accidentally ended up in the locker room. A nice wrestler named Cadmus walked her to the bathrooms, so he's her favorite now :)

I have spent the last 3 hours for the past 2 days surfing, and I’m kinda sorta really hyper fixated on EE and I adore your EAM AU, so what its the EAM family’s view on surfing?

Zora - Tried to learn but wasn't immediately good at it and got so mad she broke her surfboard. The others were NOT happy about this

Percy - Dutifully following every instruction perfectly, but doesn't have an intuitive sense of balance in the water, so she just keeps wiping out. She'll never stop trying so long as the kids want her to go with them, though

Ramsey - Probably a surprise pro at surfing. He used to do it a lot back in his younger days, but now he's an old man and prefers sitting by the shore and relaxing. ("Ramsey, you are only 34—")

Howie - Surfing is a waste of time. You should be working instead.

Giovanni - LOOOOOVES surfing, thinks it's so cool and every cool guy oughta know how to surf—he's not very good at it yet but by golly he WILL BE!!!! JUST YOU WAIT AND SEE!!!

Sylvie - Refuses to get on the board until Giovanni mocks him and says he's scared of the water. Now he is wobbling terribly and Molly help Molly how do you do this no I'm not scared AAAH—

Molly - Picks it up faster than Giovanni when they start learning together, probably just because she's young and has that malleable brain advantage. She still MUCH prefers boogie-boarding, because it feels a lot safer, but Gio really wants to learn how to surf so she's doing it for him :)

How would Molly rate everyone's post nightmare cuddles?

Percy - 10/10. Big spoon but not too tight, sleeps perfectly still and quietly.

Giovanni - 9/10. Very affectionate, sings her to sleep, and gives her head kisses while cuddling, but he has to lose a point because he snores so loudly.

Sylvie - 7/10. Super soft and fluffy, smells nice, but he's a little shy about cuddles so Molly has to take the initiative and she doesn't like having to do that.

Ramsey - 6/10. He's not generally a cuddly guy, but he likes to cuddle with his niece. When she sees him after a nightmare, he's usually still awake, so he wraps one arm around her and scrolls his phone with the other.

Indus - 5/10. He's a great hugger, but he cuddles with the same strength as he hugs and that is basically crushing her. Help.

Mera - 4/10. Mera really, really isn't used to cuddling, because she doesn't do it with anyone because of her epithet, so she's very anxious about it even though Molly can dumb down her epithet. They're more likely to sleep next to each other.

Zora - 3/10. Not because she's BAD at cuddling, just because she almost never does it, and she won't let Molly tell anyone on the rare occasion she does. She also doesn't smell very good unless Percy just made her shower.

Howie - N/A. He doesn't cuddle, but he WILL make Molly a hot cup of tea and show her how to build a birdhouse when she doesn't want to go back to sleep.

Type of person eatch parent is at the PTA meatings?

Percy: Listening intently, taking notes, will confront Molly gently if her grades are too low for any reason. The ideal parent, to a teacher.

Giovanni: Also listening intently and taking notes; will start insulting the teacher if they suggest Molly has done anything wrong ever.

Mera: Doesn't show up and the others don't want her to because she will just start cussing out the teacher and the whole school system—

Ramsey: Putting on a pleasant face and nodding along, but internally he's judging how good the teacher is. They are the one on trial here.

Zora: Keeps trying to convince the other parents that Molly should just drop out of school and learn trades; she did, after all, and she turned out fine!

Howie: They only bring him to meetings if Giovanni and Ramsey both report that the teacher is completely incompetent. Then Howie shows up and rakes them over the coals for not doing their GODDAMN JOB.

do you think molly has a spa day with her family?? if so whos getting pampered and with what (nail polish, brushing hair, fancy bath etc)?

Percy is getting a back massage, at Ramsey's insistence that she needs one. He is getting a full-body massage, particularly for the nerves in his arm. They are getting massages together :)

Gio is getting a full mani-pedi with cool nail art that he can't do himself!

Sylvie is having a hot tub soak followed by a facial treatment to keep his skin soft.

Mera is getting her hair washed and styled all nice and fancy. Molly is with her because she needs to be there in order for Mera to be touched safely. Molly is getting her hair treatment and confusing the staff with her hair stars ^_^

Indus is getting callouses removed from walking barefoot everywhere. Howie is holding him to the chair so he doesn't kick someone on accident and send them flying into a wall -_-
