ive actually revamped clarie's backstory a bit and changed a lot abt her recently bc i realized she was kind of a flat character? just like, Grumpy and Edgy. anyway clarie:
-listens exclusively to really bad and overhyped pop music. im talking top charts of 2012 type stuff -at some point in her life she'll probably start like meditating and be one of those scary buddhist ninja dudes -is a true neutral -when she went to school she had headphones in all the time but was never actually playing any music, she just wanted to listen in on conversations w/o being suspected -she likes hanging out with owen more (like 0% chance of conflict as opposed to like 40% w/quinn) but she trusts quinn more -was born in alaska but was moved with her mother to LA at a v young age so that's where she grew up, her adoptive parents still live there, she hasnt been back in years but only really misses the dogs -alongside being deathly allergic to nuts she has stomach issues so she doesn't eat much, that's why she's so skinny -she draws

i actually need to put a lot more thought into quinn tbh love that boy but also Who is He
Actually he and Lilith both sort have irritable stomachs and don't eat as much as a person with normal apetite, so owen's whole life is just trying to get all his friends to eat probably

nah you aren't because im sure quinn and owen have had this conversation:
owen: hey man do you want some of this mac and cheese? quinn: ... only if its not too salty owen: quinn: ........... and, like, no breadcrumbs? actually, I'll take some only if it's like the boxed kind owen: quinn: what owen: quinn: i don't like it when the cheese is stretchy okay

(this is long for no reason)
Najma hesitated as she tried to decide where exactly to hold on to Clarie, and made a face as she realized the whole situation was way more awkward than she imagined. "It's just, like, a healing hymn. It's how the cult of Apollo used to do it, just-" it frustrated her a little bit, because her siblings who were better at this than her could do it without singing at all. Using a hymn was the only way she could really get any anything done, and it annoyed her. "It won't take long."
She stepped closer and gently guided Claire's arm from her pocket, settling on simply holding the her forearm. Najma wasn't prone at all to stage fright, but she didn't meet Clarie’s gaze at all, eyes cast down as took a breath before she started to sing.
Najma’s came in on a note lower than one would expect given her speaking voice - but it was warm, soft, unwavering. As she went on and the notes climbed higher, their quality didn’t thin and her hands began to glow, soft yellow, and it spread from where the girls touched down Clarie’s body to her injury, bathing it in light. The words, they weren’t English or Greek - Urdu actually, and Najma chose it specifically because Clarie wouldn't be able to understand. It wasn’t important, anyway; with a hymn, the words mattered less than the feeling behind them. Najma could have sang Call Me Maybe and it would have worked, had she been able to put real emotion behind it.
And that was always the easy part for her - with healing magic, it was obviously necessary to focus on good things - relief, joy, warmth - what Najma felt when she saw Clarie with her bracelet.
And so that was the instant she channeled now, voice climbing high and staying there, and somehow happiness seemed to radiate from each syllable. There was longing too, a desire for Clarie to heal, not only in the most immediate sense but to sleep and be content as well. The way her voice betrayed emotion was reminiscent of broadway, in a way - if you knew musical theater, you knew she had the pipes for it.
Her song descended more rapidly, growing softer until she stopped, glow fading, injury healed. Clarie’s wound was small, the whole song lasted maybe fifteen seconds.
There was a moment where Najma’s gaze met Claire’s and she just sort of stared, like she didn’t want the moment to pass. Najma was the antithesis of quiet and serious, but it didn’t mean she couldn’t appreciate a moment like that when it came along. She snapped out of it a second later, giving a wide grin and patting Clarie’s hand with her free one, “All better!” she chirped, stepping back and sliding from Clarie’s grasp. “Thank you so much, for finding the bracelet and … and also for letting me return the favor. I really, really hope you feel better!”

clarie never eats anything owen offers. but when he doesn't offer and is really enjoying his food, she'll probably take a bite

burr is definitely favorite character i love hamilton but this musical really valorizes him when he was as much a politician as burr also the lines he has from 'the world was wide enough' im crying 'i will not let this man make an orphan of my daughter' 'when Alexander aimed at the sky, he may have been the first one to die, but I’m the one who paid for it' also 'if there's a reason im still alive when everyone who loves me has died' and just wait for it in general

so i tried to do some quinn facts but it turned into quinn and owen as middle/highschool roommates facts because i love them and its canon - owen has like twenty plants crammed by their tiny lil window and quinn has literally never seen him water them and yet. They thrive. - quinn tries to kill one by dumping coffee in its pot every day but somehow it gets stronger and even more beautiful - all of the wall decorations are owens and when asked about it quinn just shrugs and is like "owen is 70% of my personality anyway so i don't mind" - clarie is the other 30% - generally annoy every person on their floor because they never shut up - Doing cute stuff like:
Owen: singing alone in the room, finishes Quinn: opens the door Owen: “OH! hey i’m sorry if-” Quinn: “Listen owen i just want you to know i was outside listening for like five minutes and also you're incredibly talented and I really, [voice cracks] really love you.”
(it was a weird day)
and:
[doing homework] quinn: plops head on the desk and groans b/c math is upsetting owen: just walks over and hugs him quietly for like two whole minutes straight i just i love owen wht the what the HELL jesus christ
[during finals] “this is the seventh time you’ve listened to seasons of love can we please not for like five seconds?" [owen, bags under his eyes, about to cry] “RENT IS BETTER THAN THE ENTIRE CAREER OF TCHAIKOVSKY I’D RATHER YOU KILL ME THAN LISTEN TO CLASSICAL”
“...do you think dogs love us back?” “owen it is two o'clock in the morning.”
