Headcanons of what happened after the incident for this poor family. (Sorry, I couldn't find a clearer photo of the three )
-Dino got colourblind and selective mutism after the incident . Also became extra attached to his father and his sister. He uses a notepad to talk. But he and jay made some hand signals. They taught Marvin what those meant.
-Both the match siblings slept in their dads room, for 1 year. Marvin let them.
-The March family is currently learning hand signing. It was so Dino could have an easier time to express himself. And so that Jay and Marvin could understand him.
- Jay and Dino never went out trick or treating ever again. They preferred to stay at home. Their dad would bring in/bake their favourite sweets tho.
- The first thing on Marvin's to do list was to get both of them therapy. But with how absurd both Jay and Dino would sound, he is currently looking back on what he learnt at psychology instead. To be their therapist. He learnt psychology back then, as the subject interested him, as well as criminology.
- Jay suffers intense survivors guilt.
- Both of the match siblings obviously has PTSD.
- Dino became more afraid of dark places. And suffered nightmares. He would wake up crying, while Jay would comfort him, and run her hand through his feathers while hugging him. They both decided to sleep at their dads bedroom for a while. (The 'while' became a whole year). The nightmares started to lessen and...become more bearable.
-Since Marvin technically Jay and Dino's therapist, The March family became more closer. As Marvin believes Jay. And their dad is the only one they can confide in about their problems.
- The whole family got anxiety.
- Marvin knows how to deal with injuries, he was the one who bandaged them.
- Jay became antisocial/introverted and quiet during school. She became focused on studies, her future, and of course. her little brother.
- They left the town during 1986. The memories haunt all of them.
- Jay would buy comics, and some signed dvds of movies to put at a homemade shrine she made to pay respects (It's just a framed photo of them as a group, , with folded letters written by Jay, and Dino, in the frame. ) . Dino would give some sweets. And they would both just sit there and talk to them as if they were there. Jay doesn't think she had the right to visit their actual grave.
- Jay eventually started to have friends again after they moved. She met a cool girl named Sammy. She calls her Sam for short. She, Sammy, and Dino became a trio.
- They started to recover. Slowly, but it was progress. Dino began to speak to Jay and Marvin again. Sammy is also one of the few who Dino could speak around with.
- Jay was 13 when she met Sammy. Who was 17 around the time. Dino was 11.
