2. What are their houses like?
I think Alex probably took over his parents house after they moved away. It meant a lot to them and although he doesn't care too much about the sentimental value of the place, it definitely invokes Some Feelings. He didn't change too much around, but family photos, artwork, anything that added their flair is replaced with whatever he throws up there, which is usually nothing. The place is relatively clean aside from the coffee tables constant clutter
Claire's house I haven't yet put a lot of thought into, but i think anything she gets from friends are somewhere. A gifted shirt that was the wrong side? On the wall. Probably keeps framed pictures around. Usually Jenny's the one taking pictures for her own photo album, but sometimes she takes an extra pic for claire, which the other one always keeps around.
Jenny's house I also haven't thought of. But I like the idea of her being a photographer. She probably has a lot of art around and her room is incredibly Her. I don't think she likes anything too fancy, but she has plants. A lot. They're all on her front porch and she brings them inside if the weather gets too bad.
Lucas's house at first glance is a wreck. Not messy, but just a wreck. Then if you look a little closer, you realize everything is, in fact, organized. He has a shit ton of posters, polaroids, some of Jenny's art, all covering the walls. Weirdly enough his house is very grandparenty. Im talkin country dish towel and decorative curtains. He definitely keeps some weird shit like a chainsaw in his house. Like, stuff you usually keep in a shed.
