After his first visit to John’s house, Dave meets Jake and learns that he does not have any friends of his own age. He drags Dirk along the next time, insisting it would be good for him to have more than one friend.
Dirk is simultaneously irritated and charmed by Jake, which Dave tells him must run in the family.
Jade finds both of the Striders to be terribly amusing and, much to their chagrin, adorable. She pulls them both into an easy friendship and greatly encourages Dirk and Jake to hang out.
John and Dave meet at a fancy Hollywood party. John has never had much interest in these fancy shindigs and when he runs into Dave, well, he’s the most interesting person John’s had the pleasure of talking too all night.
He also has absolutely no idea who Dave is. His name rings a bell, but John simply can’t place his face. Karkat, a mutual “friend,” has to introduce them.
Dave is both irritated and charmed by this fact and by John. He vows to educate the other man on the finer parts of cinema, refusing to let him go on without knowing about any good movies. John is kind of offended that Dave doesn’t consider his movies to be good. He does not refuse.
Viceroy, meanwhile, is never lacking attention. His parents both adore him; he will spend time writing and reading with Rose and pranking and playing with John. Though Rose and John don’t seem to spend much time together as of late, they always come together for dinner if they can- which John will cook if he has the time- and talk with Viceroy.
Rose and John play music together sometimes and though they tried to show Viceroy both the piano and violin, he seems to be much more interested in the flute that Jade never got the knack of.
Whenever Viceroy sees Kanaya, she lavishes him with attention and happily allows him to look though her collection of fabric swatches, picking out new and… interesting combinations. Never let it be said that Viceroy is not a well-rounded child.
Jade tells him tales of her many travels and Jake plays in the extensive backyard with him, leading him on many an imaginary adventure.
Dave and Dirk have less to do with him, seeming rather awkward around the five-year-old, but he chatters away at them, anyway, and they’re content to listen and only argue a bit with children’s logic.
Viceroy currently aspires to be a writer like his mother, which seems to upset John a little.
Dave Strider: The highly eccentric director of the smashingly successful Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff series. Is rumored to be a playboy. These rumors may or may not be true, though he does tend to flirt with anything with a pulse. He enjoys riling up Karkat whenever he encounters him at a social function. Has met Rose through Roxy, but not her husband or son.
Dirk Strider: The highly eccentric younger brother of Dave Strider. Tends not to make many public appearances and only under pressure will he admit he finds his brother’s movies to be works of “confusing and enthralling genius.” Good friends with Roxy Lalonde, the younger sister of Rose Lalonde.
Jade Harley: Director and star of a popular in-depth documentary series. Older cousin of John Egbert and one of the only people who will put up with him when he gets into a “mood.” Has brought her son, Jake, with her on her travels since he was old enough to walk and recognize something dangerous. Currently taking a break from filming and staying with her cousin and his family at his apparently “haunted” home in Hollywood.
Jake Harley: Rough and tumble adventurer and son of Jade Harley. Has traveled around for most of his life and, though he does enjoy the experience, he is also enjoying being able to take a break from filming and stay in one place for more than a few weeks. Is certainly enjoying exploring his second cousin’s large house and spending time with his amusing and confounding relatives.
Rose Lalonde: The renowned author of the popular fantasy series, Complacency of the Learned. Married to John Egbert. The couple lives in a “creepy-looking” mansion of Rose’s choosing with their five-year-old son, Viceroy Nicolas Lalonde-Egbert. Rose won first-name rights, but John got to pick the middle name.
John Egbert: A very successful comedian and actor. Married to Rose Lalonde. The couple lives in a “creepy-looking” mansion of Rose’s choosing with their five-year-old son, Viceroy Nicolas Lalonde-Egbert. John agreed to move into the mansion upon learning it was possibly haunted. He is still waiting to see a ghost.
Kanaya Maryam: Rose Lalonde’s long-suffering editor, who works tirelessly with Rose to make her novels less verbose and more relatable to the public. She is passionate about clothing and enjoys attending any fashion shows she can get an invitation to. She is having an affair with Rose.
Karkat Vantas: A young, up-and-coming romcom director and Kanaya’s younger brother. Is also a self-proclaimed expert on romance and has extensive conversations with his sister about her affair. He has been to lunch with the Lalonde-Egberts and is a “sort-of” friend of John’s. John does not understand why Karkat has been so awkward around him lately. Karkat has a new project in the works that will soon be unveiled to the public.
Roxy really does have a beautiful singing voice. In elementary and middle school, before she discovered alcohol, she was in choir and always got a solo. Her voice is still good when she’s not drunk, but “singing” and “sober” don’t often coincide with Roxy anymore.
When first years marvel at the school and ask things like “Why do the staircases move?” Dave and John answer in perfect deadpan: Magic. They find themselves to be very funny.
