Headcanon ideas about the Green family (separately plz):
1. How Scott’s relationship with his family (mainly his father and brother) would be after he got out of jail.
2. How Scott, Paul, and Oliver would be after the death of Alden (he died in Case 58; The Sting of Death in Pacific Bay).
Well, this is a blast from the past! Let me see what I can come up with after refreshing myself with Family Blood…
How Scott’s relationship with his family (mainly his father and brother) would be after he got out of jail.
Hard to say. Paul didn’t strike me as much of a family man, so it wouldn't surprise me if he and Scott had a non-existent relationship after Scott was imprisoned for 20 years. Then again, if he’s anything like Alden, who was going to build a house for Scott to live in after his release, Paul might put on a convincing act for others to make it seem like he loves his son despite him killing Aileen.
For Oliver, given that he was a baby when Scott was arrested, he wouldn't have a preexisting relationship with his brother. However, I did get the impression that Scott genuinely loves his baby brother, so I can see him trying to maintain a good relationship with Oliver even while in prison. But that depends on whether Paul allows Oliver to visit his brother. There would also be the fact that Scott killed Oliver’s mother, and while Oliver wouldn't remember Aileen due to being a baby at the time of the murder, he could resent his brother for taking away his chance to grow up with Aileen in his life even if she wasn’t the picture-perfect mother.
How Scott, Paul, and Oliver would be after the death of Alden (he died in Case 58; The Sting of Death in Pacific Bay).
Scott: He’d be sad since he would have good memories with Alden from his childhood despite all the bad things Alden did in Grimsborough and Pacific Bay. He would mourn the loss of the grandfather he loved but not of the madman who killed two people for his personal gain. And given that he would still be in prison when Alden died, he probably grieved alone and wasn’t able to attend the funeral.
Paul: He would mourn the loss of his father, but he would try to put on a brave face and seem strong while in the presence of others. But in private, he would let himself let go. I could see Alden having raised Paul to think it's wrong for men to cry, so Paul wouldn't allow himself to be seen crying over his father’s death, not even at the funeral. And while he might hate Alden for what he did when he was still alive (unless Paul was in the Crimson Order too, but that’s just a thought I had), he still looked up to the man for a long time, and it's hard to forget that.
Oliver: Since he would be a toddler at most when Alden died, he wouldn’t truly understand what it meant for his grandfather to be dead. He would be sad, given he would see other people being sad, but he wouldn’t know why. When he gets older, he would wonder what it would have been like to know Alden, but he won't miss him since it's hard to miss someone you never knew… And with the stories he would grow up hearing, like his grandfather being a famous CEO, killing two people, being a member of the Crimson Order and then dying in Pacific Bay, he’d probably have mixed views on Alden.
Thanks for the ask! I never thought about these three after Family Blood, so it was interesting to consider how they would act in these situations.
