The Umbrella Academy Preferences

What Kind of Uncle/Aunt They'd Be:

This includes the girls!

Diego:

Even though he's a big tough guy, he's really just a big kid. All in all, he'd be the type to show his niece and nephews how to fight and also annoy their parents. He also never misses a birthday, school function, or game. He's the type to show the kids how to stand up for themselves and show them how to handle being pushed around. This usually ends up with him getting scolded by their parents, but there isn't anything he wouldn't do for them. He's definitely the most protective. Touch them and he'll kill you.

Luther:

Even if he's uptight, at heart he knows how to have a good time. If anything he's the best story teller to his nieces and nephews. He'll tell them stories and facts about space and help them with their science homework. He'll take them to space museums and then out for ice cream afterwards. He'll let them climb all over him and even if it hurts he'll let them just to see them happy. He definitely gives the best hugs and his nieces and nephews love his stories to bits.

Five:

He won't be the most nurturing of uncles, but he'll definitely give them the best life lessons. He'll never admit it but it hurts him to see his nieces and nephews upset. He'll set them down with tea or whatever drink they like and hear them out. Then he'll give advice and pat them on the head when the conversation is over. Secretly, he loves hearing them say "uncle Five." He also will tell them stories but they definitely won't be appropriate. He loves those little shits but won't admit it.

Ben:

He's the type to be the calm place for his nieces and nephews. He's definitely a lot of fun and loves to play with them. He'll play hide and seek, tag, cops and robbers, all the board games, and even dolls. He likes being involved and is the biggest kid. He's also really comforting and is basically his nieces and nephews diary. He's also really good to gossip with. Over all, he's someone who his nieces and nephews can be care free with. He's a safe place for them.

Klaus:

Much like Ben, he's a lot of fun. He's the type to use the infamous line of "don't tell your parents I let you do this" on his nieces and nephews. He lets them eat ice cream for breakfast, stay up after bedtime, eat junk all day, and sleep until whenever. He won't care what they do as long as they won't get hurt. He definitely will gossip with his nieces and nephews all day long and share stories of his life with them. He most definitely told them about Dave and referred to him as "uncle Dave." He's definitely the fun uncle.

Allison:

She's a solid mix of Klaus and Luther. She won't let them stay up late or eat ice cream for breakfast, but she'll let them do what they want. She's snuck them places and did things with her nieces and nephews without their parents knowing. She'll bake with them and take them shopping. They'll have sleepovers and watch movies a lot. She'll tell them embarrassing stories of their parents growing up. She's like the mom aunt but the cool mom aunt.

Vanya:

Her and Ben share a lot of similarities, she's a mix of Ben and Five. She'll play with her nieces and nephews all day long but when they need advice she's there. She knows secrets that no one else knows and is always a shoulder to lean on. She never misses anything the kids are apart of. She also takes them to museums and for ice cream when she babysits them. She's also a safe place for them and they adore her. She's very nurturing and there isn't anything she wouldn't do for them.
