7. Did they have lots of friends as a child? Did they keep any of their childhood friends into adulthood? 

No. Ophelia had always been quite the loner type and she never had a childhood per se. Some of her earliest friends she made however have stayed with her for many years and she cherishes those who have gotten close to her in the years however few and far between they may be.

30. Do they exercise? Yes. Seokmin is very proud of his abs. Regularly? Duh. Or only when forced? Nope. I do it on my own. What do they act like pre-work out and post-work out? Seokmin is very happy and energetic before his work-out, but when he finishes he's still energetic but more likely to spout nonsensical things.

5. Do they have any siblings? What’s their names? What is their relationship with them? Has their relationship changed since they were kids to adults?

Biologically no, but she considers all 7 of her brothers and sisters her siblings. Their names are Aureus, Erythreus, Venetus, Argent, Cora, Virindeus, and Aurantia. Malva's relationship with them is quite complicated, they argue and bicker very often but eventually at the end of the day, she would try her best to make up to them. They met each other when they were already adults, but since they've been together for centuries long as family, their relationship have changed gradually as the years passed by.

Cornelia hates showing emotions to people but it's safe to say she's sad internally most of the time. She has had a few breakdowns over losing people like her mother, ex-lovers and her partner Harrison at the hands of her father, but for the most parts she tries not to cry. When sad, Cor closes herself up to everyone and completely buries herself in her work and there's only a handful of people who would be able to see through that and figure out that she's sad.

24. What is their sleeping pattern like? Mindae sleeps very deeply. You can't wake him up unless you twist his pectorals. Don't ask. Do they snore? No. He doesn't snore, because he sleeps with his mouth closed. What do they like to sleep on? A bed, duh. A soft or hard mattress? Soft. Mindae can't stand hard mattresses, they hurt his wings.

33. What underwear do they wear? Boxers or briefs? Lacey? Comfy granny panties?

33. What underwear do they wear? Ambrose usually doesn't wear underwear, preferring to go commando as that is far more comfortable when wearing suits and other business attire. Boxers or briefs? When exercising however, Ambrose will slip on a pair of boxer briefs for support. Lacey? Comfy granny panties? Ambrose probably would put on a pair of ladies panties on a dare, he's quite playful and isn't afraid of a good challenge.

44. What is their favourite season? Type of weather? Are they good in the cold or the heat? What weather do they complain in the most?

Spring would perhaps be Ven's favourite season just because of what it symbolises. He's all for new beginnings and fresh starts and nature is at full bloom during that time. Ven loves sunny mornings and clear, moonlit nights. He doesn't have a preference for cold or heat and likes a moderate temperature, though he'd take a warm sunny morning over a cold and dreary day. There's no weather he really complains about because he's a nature guy who appreciates it in all its forms but if he had to pick, rainy days would probably be the one he likes the least.

23. Do they have a good memory? Short term or long term? Are they good with names? Or faces?

Cecilia has been around for a while and she's highly perceptive, so she does have a good memory. Both short and long term. Although, she might easily forget some of the things she deemed unimportant. She's particularly good with names since she goes around digging into their backgrounds. Same goes for faces.

45: How do other people see them? IS it similar to how they see themselves.

Other people see Erythreus as brooding, impulsive, and an alcoholic, but  they also see him as one of the most softest Ailwards in the bunch as in someone who wears his heart on his sleeve, and expresses his emotions without hesitation. Much like he see's himself, so yes, very similar to how he see's himself.

42. What are their goals? What would they sacrifice anything for? What is their secret ambition?

42. What are their goals? What would they sacrifice anything for? What is their secret ambition?

I think for a long time Cornelia's goal has been to survive and protect. It is well known that her top priority is getting Abraxas Bradford behind bars and she would sacrifice anything for that, even herself.

She used to be ambitious but now the only thing she wants more than anything is to have a normal life where people she cares for don't have to die or hide. Though if that ever happens, she would probably set her eyes on a political role since she loves being a leader to her people. Mayor Adrien watch out

22. What are their favourite insults to use? What do they insult people for? Or do they prefer to bitch behind someone’s back?
