alistair william kearns — america says we love a chorus, but don’t get complicated and bore us! though meaning might be missin', we need to know the words after just one listen!

— alistair william kearns, what a gem, what a pal, what a friend o' mine
— alistair is an interesting guy. first of all, when you meet him, you'd be shocked at how bright and vivacious his personality is. he's charismatic, intelligent, super funny and witty, and seems to just generally be a nice guy. he's nice to everyone, including fans that could get annoying sometimes. he's interesting, he has lots of talents, and he wanted to be a doctor before he got into music! awww
— alistair is a singer, a solo artist that just happens to always hang out with his touring band. he's insanely popular, after hitting a few number one singles, and selling out every show on a tour of his. he's really living the life, and his music tends to be party-rocking, with a good beat, good lyrics, and just a good vibe. sure, he may have that teeny-bopper fanbase, but his music is loved from adults to teens, to goths to cheerleaders! it's universal, and it brings the world together!
— he's very humble about his music, he doesn't talk about his creative process much. whenever someone asks, he usually just smiles and nods. he directs and edits his own music videos, he has a very strong creative eye for almost anything, and he's even directed a few other people's music videos.
— ah, music's number one eligible bachelor. alistair is very single, and he's never really been seen with a significant other. that of course, hasn't been missed. he's kindly turned down a few people, claiming that he would rather wait until fame dies down, so he can put as much time and effort into a relationship as he can. sometimes, he mentions a girl that he refers to as his "dream girl," but claims he never spoke to her. it drives people insane.
— some of his best buddies are his touring band's bassist, devon fenton, and his "sister from another mister," theodora stoker. devon and alistair have the "bright best friend and grumpy buddy" dynamic, while theo and alistair's relationship is fairly unknown to most people.
— people just adore alistair. and why wouldn't you? he just seems to love life, people, and making music. he just wants to sing to the world, and why shoulnn't we let him do just that?
— alistair is indeed, bright and charismatic, and he makes music alright, but there's definitely something underneath the surface of a clean-cut american singer, something so deep down, that nobody except him (and theodora) know about this one fact: alistair is a wolf among sheep.
— alistair can perfectly fake his expressions, like some kind of fantastic mask that he puts over his real face. if you saw alistair naturally, you could call his face as one of a shark: empty, expressionless, predatory.
— his music is meant to please the masses, buy all his music, and watch his music videos. he purposely puts subliminal messages into his music videos, all messages to buy music, to listen to him, to love him, and scariest of all: do violent things. satanic imagery that's too subtle to catch, the right flash of the light, alistair has the world wrapped around his finger.
— alistair plays with emotions. he plays with people. alistair doesn't care about other people, he doesn't connect with them like most people would. he has antisocial personality disorder, but he's taken it to a new level, beyond just blatant disregard. he doesn't care what others think of him, or what happens to them, but he takes certain steps to inflict it.
— does the best imitations, and he totally mocks people in a way that they don't even know he's mocking them in a mean way!! everyone laughs as he mocks the studio host, the radio announcer. the opening band, anyone!
— calls people "dear, darling" or other affectionate terms a lot.
— he was institutionalized for about three years when he was 17, his mother sent him there after a few mental breakdowns, and a sudden change in behavior that ended with him threatening her, and his father. this all, of course, has been wiped clean off the slate by his record company. his mother tragically died of a heart attack a few months after he came back home.
— alistair has killed. he'll keep killing. nobody expects the pop star, and alistair preys on that fact. his record label will do anything to keep him afloat, if it involves money, they'll do it. even if it means blatantly disregarding laws, they'll do it. alistair is just too important for that.
— if he wanted to, he would've been a surgeon, but he decided to try music instead. which is great, because he still gets to rip bodies apart often, due to his side hobby.
— alistair is a monstrumologist, he studies monsters, making sure they're not terrorizing the public, and making sure they're properly protected. alistair tends to ignore the first role, focusing more on monsters, and if he can rip them to bits. he's really fascinated by anthropophagi (he calls them "poppies" as an affectionate term), and he really loves wendigos, since his friend theodora is one. he likes to use her to study how humans react to fear, losing fingers, or just in general, discovering that wendigos exist.
— alistair is asexual and aromantic, he has no interest in romance in the least. he finds it ridiculous and needless, because he already enough love for things in his life. he can't focus on a person, anyways, he can't form that bond with anyone that well.
— have i said enough?? ? we all know he's a sweetie pie on the surface but down below he's a real awful boy right righto

aidan angel murphy — altered boys, altered boys, we're the things that love destroys

— born in chicago and wiLL NEVER LET ANYONE FORGET IT, THE AMOUNT OF PRIDE YET HATRED FOR HIS CITY IS UNBELIEVABLE HE'D MOCK THE PLACE ALL HE WANTED BUT IF SOMEONE NOT FROM CHIGAGO SAID SOMETHING MEAN HE'D PROBABLY DECK THEM
— also he's a vegan but surprisingly you'd never know if until he was like, eating somewhere and he had to ask if something was vegan, he kinda keeps his mouth shut about his lifestyle choices yannow
— he has a very innocent look to him despite the fact that he's around 25, and that kinda throws people off when he speaks brutally about very mature, scary things so i mean don't judge a book by its cover
— he's asexual and barely romantic yet "bruises on your thighs like my fingerprints" exists
— inhales air exhales respect everyone air
— he has three dogs, a standard poodle named emmy, a pug named patrick, and a pit bull named sunflower, and they're the loves of his life
— snooze and let snooze is his life motto, and unfortunately he's late to every fricking thing in his life
— least favorite things in the world: blue and rabbits
— he's a Intern™ for this weirdo therapist, aidan is trying to finish college and until then he's in Training™ and helping said weirdo scottish therapist but they have fun and have way too many inside jokes and once built a high-quality cardboard fort in nigel's office
— very empathetic, he's very concerned for the welfare of others, he considers himself to be much less important than other people. this of course isn't a good way to live, because aidan rarely sticks up for or takes time off for himself, always focusing on the welfare of others. he doesn't understand that some selfishness is okay.
— he's got a soul voice, according to some. he's been singing since he was little, but he actually didn't start singing stuff that was original until his high school years. then, he started playing around with writing and performing, and it's been actually pretty nice, it's gotten him to meet some really nice people.
— youngest of 3 kids, and they don't let him live it down.
— his parents got divorced a little after he was born, and he spent his early years shuffling back and forth between parents, because nobody could decide where he nelonged. he became the messenger, the therapist, the go-to for his family. the little mediator, if you will.
— his name means "fiery" and you can tell that it fits. there's something fierce about his love, something under the surface of a fairly laid back, mild-mannered dude.
— he gets anxiety about his anxiety, which p much sums up his own personal mental health.
— literally the epitome of dog dad. he loves his lil kids, and whenever he gets nervous or sad or worried, he goes to his dogs and they love him.
— a recent addition to the wild home of Mr. Murphy is a little duckling named jellybean.
— quotes michael scott on the daily, but mostly the "why are you the way you are" part
— besties with leggy's johtroh character and they have fun being Chicago Boys, in fact they've got leather jackets that say "chicago boys" on it
— in some aus he unfortunately does something weird or odd and ends up attracting the attention of a demon named youngblood who decides to use aidan as his personal meat sack
— he's obsessed with fedoras??? and plaid??? and trucker hats??? who is he and what is his agenda

lawliet suki — i'm a champion of the people who don't believe in champions

— lawliet suki doesn't know her parents. she was brought to an orphanage in nikko, japan, and was named whimsically (her last name doesn't even have a meaning, it just sounds like "low light," and some social worker thought it sounded western enough that some humble couple from california would take her away if they saw it). she's unsure even of her birthday, but she likes to think her birthday is october 31st. she's currently the precocious age of seventeen.
— let's talk about how smart she is. when she was little, people thought she was possessed, or some kind of witch because of how observant and smart she was, and how utterly cutting and raw her remarks could be, especially when it came to the ethically-inappropriate affair between her least favorite worker, and the milkman. suki's raw talent for noticing details, understanding advanced concepts in any subject and looking outside the box wasn't unnoticed by anyone. everyone in the orphanage made a point to not make her mad and stayed far from her. suki quickly learned that most people didn't care for her, so she made a point not to care for them.
— when she was six or seven, her talents became almost unbearable, until aizawa eiichi showed up: a genius man, with a plan to hone her skills and turn her into a formidable weapon to crime doers everywhere. he adopted her, and immediately destroyed what little connection she had with her first name (she had hated it originally, she considered herself neither likable or lovable, nor able to reciprocate those affections to anyone) and forged a new connection with her last: lawliet. a name that hadn't been real before she was born. from then on, suki was hidden far, far away from lawliet. any unessential records involving her name were destroyed. from then on, only lawliet (or L, if you wanted to give her a nickname) were acceptable.
— lawliet's education was fast, furious, and incredibly in-depth. from seven to sixteen, lawliet was guided along everything she could possible get her hands on. she learned how to speak eight or nine major languages, how to perfect her accents for each language, how to live like someone who'd existed in an area that had spoken that language easily, and then dabbled in some lesser-known areas. her basic education was gone in a breeze, lawliet's genius was enough for her to finish any important basic courses when she was about nine. then, she started actually learning. criminal justice, evidence, motives, the lives and motives of killers and criminals were her world now, and lawliet thrived.
— when she was fourteen or fifteen, she started helping aizawa with cases. these weren't hard cases, basic criminal investigation. as she began to stretch her wings, her prowess grew. suddenly, lawliet was being called on for more intense, more confusing cases. serial killers, secret organizations, and "big brother" corporations became the norm in their household.
— not to say that her entire life was just crime and justice. aizawa wasn't her father (and never would be, the two of them had decided), but was still her guardian. the two of them did almost anything together, conjoined at the hip. they started playing tennis together, and lawliet got good enough (despite her severe anemia) to start competing on bigger, better teams. and aizawa was always there, if not hidden in the background.
— unfortunately, this open, calmer time was about to change. as lawliet got older, more and more people were interested in the mysterious L that hid behind the screen. she had to become careful, her and aizawa both. aizawa had seen it coming, but the sudden realization that people actually wanted to know about her had shocked lawliet more than anything, even if they wanted to know her so they could kill her.
— from then on, lawliet wasn't a human, she was an entity. she stayed inside, made sure to cover her tracks. her and aizawa were careful from then on, and made a point to start making other people do the easy work. from photographs, descriptions, and live video, lawliet could easily make do.
— and that's her history, onto other stuff woo
— very dry sense of humor. lawliet is incredibly sarcastic, but she's so good at it that few people actually see it. it's confusing to her, just like most social interactions. she has a very low grasp of social norms, she often mixes up what's okay, and what isn't.
— around sixteen, she realized that she has no clue, and no understanding or interest in what gender is. she's confused, but most likely apathetic towards the idea of having a gender. she only uses she/her because it's nice watching the way other detectives react when they realize they've been mansplaining to The L.
— insomniac at heart, lawliet just doesn't sleep a lot. she doesn't feel like she needs it that much, and often has some kind of sugary treat or caffeinated drink on hand, just in case she does feel tired. she only really sleeps when she feels like she needs to sort things out in her brain.
— has no belief in like, anything that can't be explained by science or deduction. she doesn't even like fairy tales that much, she doesn't believe in heroes, just in people that are considered morally "right."
— how do i say that she talks too fast and too much. she talks too fast and too much, and she uses words and terms and expressions that are wayyyyy too overwhelming to deal with.
— falls into a deep depression when she doesn't have something to think about, or when her guess was wrong. especially when she was excited at the prospect of a potential suspect, and especially when she has all her motives lined up in a row.
— has little to no sense of privacy towards anyone, and she's unashamed. she's very scientific, she's good at keeping her emotions separated from her thoughts.
— sits really weird all the time and she claims its to "help her think better" but everyone thinks it's just her being quirky who knows what the truth is
— paints her nails constantly, and is constantly peeling them off. because she says that peeling the nail polish helps her focus, or whatever.
— as a seventeen year old, she's a bottomless pit when it comes to food, and literally you can't leave her alone with any food, because she'll snatch it.
— the kind of drama queen that distorts her voice to the point where it sounds masculine
— she's the top detective in the world, but she's more than that. actually, she's the top 3 detectives, thanks to some careful pseudonyms. safety comes first, especially if someone tries to hire one of her alternate identities to find out who she is.

cato talos marconi — have you ever wanted to disappear?

— cato is a very average looking sixteen year old on the surface. he goes to high school, he tries to make it through classes, and he struggles with making friends. all and all, for someone who doesn't know him, they'd say cato is a rather odd, but well-meaning boy with a odd, but well-meaning father.
— this of course, is all fake. daedalus isn't his father, cato cannot struggle with classes, cato is not human. cato is a robot (cato talos stands for connected artificial intelligence technical offspring talos v16.3, but daedalus only uses that name when he's yelling at cato for knocking over the fishtank), one of the most advanced breakthroughs in technology, ever. and nobody even knows about him. in the making for over twenty years, and sixteen years just getting his a.i. to the point where he could function like a person, cato is the brainchild (and literal, daed argues) of daedalus marconi. cato is his only son.
— daedalus literally poured his life into cato. everything from cato is entirely top-of-the-line, and his software (talos, yes, daedalus does know the greek myth well) is 100% unique. however, daedalus hasn't told cato yet, but a few screws used to connect his left leg and his foot might've been taken from a toaster when daedalus was running out of parts.
— cato is a very... interesting robot. his artificial intelligence gives him emotions that are almost perfectly matched with a humans. he's self-aware, he knows he's a robot who functions on computers and machines, and that leads to at least some existentialism. cato doesn't know if the feelings he feels are even his, or if everything he is is just a computer trying to imitate being human. it's actually quite horrifying to him.
— he feels like it's some kind of glitch in his software that daedalus can't get out, but cato literally has some kind of robot anxiety, complete with racing thoughts and panic attacks that strangely aren't curbed by his firewalls or self-defense tech. there's no reason for him to have an anxiety disorder, because he doesn't have a brain, yet it's there.
— wanna know a secret? cato doesn't need to be in high school, daedalus just put him in there to help him learn how to function as a teenager. memes, current slang, all that. cato literally has all sources of knowledge shoved into his head that he could look up at any time, he doesn't need to worry about history or math.
— cato is really sweet, honestly. he's deeply empathetic, and he worries a lot about other people. they're not as smart, or advanced, or as strong as he is. people need to be protected.
— similarly to the mr fusion unit in the time-traveling delorean in back to the future, cato runs off organic matter. so, he can eat like a regular person and not worry about jamming up his parts.
— his "skin" is incredibly strong, but it can't self-heal if it breaks. so, if he ever got injured, he'd have exposed wires and metal and such, and daedalus would have a lot of explaining to do with other people. luckily, that hasn't really happened.
— cato didn't know he was any different from any kid until he was fourteen, and about to start high school. daedalus finally told him, and cato freaked out. since then, he's had Robot Existentialism™.
— socially, cato is awkward. thanks to his tech copying what other teenagers act like, cato is just... really old memes, a stuttering issue, and sometimes (sometimes) accidentally slipping out some ridiculously smart term, or a hint that he's actually not human. all unintentional, of course.
— as a robot, he has no concept of uhh hlike gender-specific attraction??  also he's very ace i dont even think daedalus equipped him with that stuff
— calls daedalus "daed" because it sounds like dad. that's his only nickname for anyone, otherwise he refers to their full, preferred name. daedalus programmed him to call him daed
— cato loves animals, but mostly he loves this i-dog that daedalus fixed up and made God-Tier for him. it's not even an i-dog at this point, but a robot dog. its name is hacker, and cato would do anything for this weird little robo-dog. hacker functions similarly to how cato works, and (cato hasn't discovered this yet) is capable of intelligent speech. daedalus is waiting for cato to have a really rough day before he reveals it to him.
— "how is your hair literally the same" ",,, ,  ,i cut my hairs every day"
— read his mind, and it's "the best of both worlds" by hannah montana playing 24/7, because he loves hannah montana unironically and considers her music to be the best music of this generation. and he should know, he could bring up any song available to man in his mind and he only accepts hannah
— he's a sweet meme. he's not a happy, or a totally in control emotionally meme, but he's doing his best. a pure cinnamon bun, too good for this world, too pure

thorne grey harkness — i'll stop wearing black when they make a darker color!

— one of the reasons he was named was bc of shakespeare so it makes sense he'd die for all will.i.am's plays (except rom and julie)
— gives darn good advice despite being a meme, supports u in all your life choices unless it's hateful or being a furry
— ace. aggressively ace. hates all pda. will stab you with a knife if you even hold hands near him. i don't know why??
— arrogant, full of it, sassy, snarky, deadpan, annoyed, anti-romance club 2k17, panicky, nervous
— "god, where are your parents you're like 10" he says to the 16 year old two weeks younger than him
— "i hate you, i hate your personality, please exit my life"
— strained noises of pain and suffering
— "have you ever met a guy named hugh jass"
— "and that's how i got evan into uncensored hentai"
— "my eyes just rolled back into my skull and shot out the other way"
— "the day someone aside from me hugs my fox will be the day i launch myself and jeffery into the sun"
— "you know i didn't chose fox's name, so my getting a fox is entirely coincidental i'm thinking of filing a police report to be honest"
— "i have lost control of my life"
— "when will the sweet release of death grace my presence"
— you know that theater kid? you know, that one. who knew all the plays, musicals, and really anything that involved a stage that you could throw at him? that's thorne. he loves. loves. loves. plays and musicals. he's a geek. he could literally sing (badly) for an entire year just involving all the musicals he's memorized. thorne can remember every line from every character he's played. he is the ultimate theater nerd. fear him.
— thorne was born february 19th, and is currently 17 years old, but his age can range from 16-22.
— thorne is such a salty human being. he's ridiculously so.
— he's often seen rolling his eyes, huffing loudly, or making a bad pun. basically, just fufilling the "annoyed brit" stereotype.
— he's what would happen if winnie-the-pooh fuCKED SLENDERMAN
— STEREOTYPICAL STEPFORD SNARKER GOOD  G  O  D
— the name "thorne" was chosen for no apparent reason but from the fact that "thorne" is unique. his middle name was chosen after the thomas grey in shakespeare's richard ii.
— the older of two siblings, there's him and a younger sister named rose. yes, he sees the thorn and rose correlation. it's been noticed.
— thorne was raised in london, but moved to seattle after a housefire burnt up his family's home, as well as killing rose.
— thorne is under the impression that he was responsible for the housefire, and you'll never hear it from him, but he's incredibly guilty about it.
— no, really. he's been diagnosed with ptsd from that event, and even looking at fire will give him really bad flashbacks. he's vegetarian because he can't even look at meat without thinking of his sister, or the idea of meat burning up. he used to like meat, he really did, but he threw up the last time he even tried to eat something cooked. i mean he's safe with sushi, but that's really it
— surprisingly arrogant. most people joke about being arrogant, but thorne is just arrogance in a human body.
— birth wise, he isn't the first harkness. but crownologically (haha pun), thorne is the first harkness. he is the og harkness. he is the blueprint for every harkness to come. you think evan is the epitome of sin? no, thorne is. thorne is the greatest sin, he is the strongest. bow to your leader before it's too late.
— he accidentally makes jokes even though he totally means to make them, and every time he has the same reaction where he just stares into the camera like he's on the office
— he's working as an assistant to travis wright, and they're probably the best friends. they're the only friends the both of them have. thorne is really lonely in case you don't know.
— he's 1/3 of the Sin Cousins, and he finds himself to be the only Emotionally Stable one.
— mocks ppl for liking anime buT GUESS WHAT HE'S A MASSIVE WEEB
— jk he's not stable at all, he's had thirteen existential crisises since you've started reading this
— diagnosed with adhd when he was about thirteen. which is funny, because usually grades end up falling a lot, but shockingly thorne kept them up.
— "wait what"
— thorne is super mega smart. no, he's hella smart. every single harkness is a genius, and thorne is the top dog. totally stokes his ego
— he has a pet grey fox named jeffery. we don't know how he got the fox, how he managed to move the fox across countries, how the fox is living in a house in seattle, but jeffery is doing just great, thanks for asking. thorne loves jeffery so darn much
— don't try to call jeffery jeff. that's thorne's pet name. shut your face
— mumbles a lot. he's a mumbler, and it doesn't help that he uses big words and he has a fancy proper Queen's English accent so basically thorne is #screwed
— he doesn't like being like, the One Brit in his school. it's not his fault his family is too big and spreads across the entire school
— thorne has definitely, positively, 100% attempted to kill his male cousins at least twice in his life.
— smart kid, have we mentioned that? he's here to help you with your homework, if he doesn't lose focus and get impatient, and start yelling at you.
— he can (sorta) play the piano, but he ended up with a teacher who had a horrible patience span (like himself) and thorne and evan ended up mostly yelling while bashing random keys instead of getting stuff done. he can play, but it's nothing big. but he does love it.
— dies in a housefire when he's like twenty eight i mean what ahah
— swears more than you will ever know. open swearer. has a list of favorite swears swearer.
— once made up a song about bananas but you'll never see that
— he is bibibibibibible lover of christ and the lord amen brother hallejuah praise bi
— he has two moods. death darkness and crisis, and gentle pastel flower child. good luck trying to get on pastel side.
— don't call him throne. stop it. thorn isn't cool either. stop. thorne. just. say/type. thorne.
— finds ur human parts disgusting and unappealing. nothing is good enough for him.
— he's just a bitter sad antisocial kid with lots of money and fame and family what else can you expect from og da'rkness
— spends more time on the internet than he does making connections with others
— quit asking him what the fox says. he owns a fox and has a cousin named fox. he's heard enough. he doesn't care.
— filled with memes only 23/6 and the rest of the time is spent in painful feeling and guilt and sadness someone stop him
— dONT TOUCH HIS CEREAL FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
— hates hamsters. hates hats. hates sunburns. don't mention them, he may throw up.
— the thoodernoodle to travis's danger noodle
— him and alois have a thing that's not a thing but it's sorta a thing they're death nut buddies it's gotta be something when you death your nut with someone right
— he's literally the snarkiest human being his entire life is just filled with roasting people and calling people rats

daedalus abbott marconi — you've been hanging with the unloved kids who you never really liked and you never trusted !

— his initials spell out "dam," as in, "DAM THAT MAN IS SMART"
— literally, daedalus was named very correctly. he's an inventor by trade (ceo and head smort guy of daedalus industries), one of the great minds of the century. he's leading the industry in cutting-edge technology, constantly churning out the boldest and the best.
— daedalus has a strong moral code when it comes to his inventions, however. if he finds out anything from daedalus industries has been used in a malicious manner, he releases a virus that he puts into every piece of tech he has, effectively turning something into just a scrap of metal (daedalus doesn't write these codes down anywhere, he's memorized them all).
— he's such a snarky, stubborn human being. he's made quite a few people angry, and he really doesn't care. his home is one of the most secure places in his area, and he has way too many experimental weapons he's all too happy to test out on human beings.
— pokes his nose where it really shouldn't belong. daedalus is a nosy, nosy man. if he hears about a gossip or a scandal, he's probably hacking into someone's social media/home to try and figure out exactly what's going on. is it legal? no. does he do it anyways, and enjoy it? yes.
— he's a super genius who's the ceo of his own company, yet he has like no friends. either he just doesn't socialize easily, or he considers friends to be a waste of time. we haven't quite figured it out yet.
— hates it when things don't go his way, because things should always go his way, because he's figured out every logical reason to do something, and then he does it.
— super geek. not just intelligence wise, this dude is a bookworm. he reads old latin and translates it into greek, then english for fun.
— doesn't care what you think. he's very much a "don't expose me, i won't expose you." and he will expose you. so hard.
— to say that he's a prickly dude would be very accurate. he knows how to talk, he knows how smart and important he is, and he has little to no disregard for other people's rules or opinions. he's got a bit of a complex going on.
— the amount of salt in his body is terrifying tbh
— out of all his projects, daedalus enjoys creating artificial intelligence most of all. he's worked on computers, phones, virtual assistants. but in his opinion, his greatest invention is what he considers to be the best, greatest, and most powerful invention known to man: C.A.T.O, a robot far beyond any other technology or ai to exist. and the best part? only he knows about it.
— daedalus hates his name. he can't do anything with it, there's no nicknames to possibly brush off the name "daedalus." sure, he appreciates the greek mythology and the whole uncommon aspect of it, but did his parents really have to name him daedalus? to combat this, he named his business daedalus industries, to make everyone think daedalus is a cool name, or that he's using some kind of stage name.
— once he met someone who said they named their son after him, and daedalus almost smacked the guy. he told him "why the heck would you name someone that dumb name" and then left
— his parents were scientists, and again, super genius people. he had to deal with a lot on his shoulders from a young age, with having incredibly smart parents, and very large shoes to fill.
— trigger warning: abuse + self harm when he still lived with his family, daedalus dealt with too much in his time. his mother and father were emotionally abusive to him, constantly pressuring him to get his grades up higher, and calling him an idiot or a failure if he couldn't hit that 4.0 grade. a few times during heated debates about his education, his parents abuse could get physical. daedalus took those feelings to heart, feeling angry, impossibly lonely, and like there was no other option for him other than to be the perfect student. his inability to find a healthy way of letting his stress and fears of being imperfect ended with him harming himself frequently throughout high school, until after graduation, when he got help from a therapist and patched together his life. he's fine now.
— daedalus has had two goals in life: take over the world, and be a father. as a kid, he always dreamed of being the perfect father, that could do anything he could to help his children succeed in life. he wanted to break the cycle that his parents had set, and he never quite trusted someone enough to start a family with him (read: he's a freaking lone wolf). finally, he went to a doctor to discuss getting a surrogate mother to father a child. several tests came back, and daedalus realized he was infertile.
— adoption was the next road, but daedalus was informed by his nearest adoption agency that he couldn't because of the threats and dangers of living near advanced technology and weapons. so, daedalus being daedalus, he decided to create something to take the place of a human child.
— enter C.A.T.O (or just plain ol' cato) the closest thing daedalus has to a son. he is his son, actually. daedalus got a birth certificate, citizenship and everything. except, of course, cato is still a robot. daedalus has spent over ten years developing cato, in the hopes of creating artificial intelligence that was far beyond what the technology had been. he succeeded.
— takes the morality of ai very seriously. he would never shut cato down, because cato is alive in his eyes and has intelligence. of course, he's never told anyone about cato, because some people might not see things the way he does. creating life like this comes at a price, and daedalus doesn't want anyone to think about that price aside from himself.
— daedalus loves cato. it's hard to think that someone loves a robot, but he does. cato is his son, his creation, his one purpose in life. to get him working, to get him successful and impassable in a world filled with humans, that's all he wants. he churns out inventions, sure, but his real work, the thing he truly loves, is cato.
— mostly, he's just a tired dad who wants his robot son to do amazing things, and live as long as he lives and always always have him nearby.
— daedalus has been pegged as a ladies man, but in reality, daedalus doesn't care. he has no interest in anyone or anything aside from his work, and his son. sure, if he made a friend or too, that'd be fine, but he's shoved that crippling loneliness deep inside himself, where even he can't feel it anymore.
— the type of guy who breaks his coffee machine, and then fixes it to a point where it's almost extra. nobody needs a laser show whenever their coffee is done, daedalus.
— listens to vinyl records and old swing jazz on repeat, that's all
