I had the plain verse version of this written up already, which meant I had time to find daemons for people! Yay! Well, some people, anyway. Some of Nora's family still needs fleshing out. Daemons are under characters they belong to with a -- to make reading easier.
JJ Rogers + Bertrande ("Betti")
What they smell like: JJ has a clean, outdoorsy scent about him, coming from his cologne, which has notes of cedar, sea salt, coriander and pink pepper in it. Both he and Betti have a tendency to smell faintly of the pool. Thankfully, Tess and Mati both like it.
How they sleep: Tucked into a foetal ball, with his knees up to his chest and his arms out to the side. He's always slept like that, since he was old enough to not have to sleep on his back any more. Betti used to curl around his butt, with her tail hanging off on the bed, and when he was younger, Victor sometimes popped in for a cuddle with them. Now JJ has Tess cuddling from behind, or butt-to-butt with him, and Betti cuddles with Mati at the end of the bed.
What music they enjoy: Electronic, Trance music. He and Betti like the feel of the bass beats, and JJ doesn't feel like he's missing much with his hearing issues. One of the only real conflicts stemming from having a dad who's nearly a hundred years older than him is that Steve just does not get how this is music, but patiently nods along to JJ's enthusiastic discussion of the layers of tracks and the remixing of the vocals. Issie has pointed out to Steve that it could be worse. At least it's not one of those half-naked popstars who dress like very young children and have worrying personal lives.
How much time they spend getting ready every morning: Fifteen minutes? JJ has a pretty basic routine. Shower, shave if needed, clothes on, hair vaguely tossed in a pleasing arrangement, and then off he pops. Betti's fur takes a bit of time to dry, so she tries not to get in the shower. But she does, because she can't help herself. She just really likes water.
Their favourite thing to collect: Animals. Not permanently. JJ collects them and takes them to someplace safe.
Their family: Steve Rogers (dad, super soldier, rescuer of small animals) --(Ishild ["Issie"], a Teddy Roosevelet Terrier) Honor (Phelan) Rogers (mom, bookshop owner, grower of many plants) --(Eventyr ["Tyr"], a northern bluebird)
Joseph 'Spike' Phelan (grandfather, architect, volunteer firefighter) --(Reidara ["Reedy"], a red ovenbird) Annette Phelan (grandmother, window dresser) --(Coyer ["Coy"], an Eastern Grey Squirrel) Joseph 'Fox' Phelan (uncle) Jilly (Alstead) Smythe (adopted aunt) Greyson Smythe (cousin) Sean Phelan (cousin) Some other cousins and significant others of uncle and aunt that I haven't named yet.
Teresa Iver (photographer, video game ass-kicker) --(Mati, a golden marmot)
James Buchanan Barnes (godfather, super soldier, badass) --(Shessida ["Shess"], a sunbear) Amber Delarosa (godmother, personal shopper, also kind of a badass, but in more of a sartorial sense) --(Vivax ("Vix"), a flamingo)
A shitload of superheros who all consider themselves to be family
A weird/obscure fear they have: Falling asleep for a really long time. Like, 70 years long time. Betti especially gets kind of freaked when that thing happens when you wake up and you can't tell what time it is or how long you've been asleep for or if it's day or night for a few seconds.
A secret skill: Winnie has often joked that JJ's hearing aid is tuned to 'animals in distress' because he can hear them when no one else can.
