Five Things
Just a fun way to flesh out characters for the knowledge of others, list five (or more, or less) things about your character someone reasonably close to them would know. They can be important things or trivial things, but just pick a few things you think people who know the character would know.

...has an exaggerated case of the Westermarck effect - he grew up with most of the second generation super heroes, and sees most of them almost more like siblings than co-workers.
...would die in a second to save any of his siblings, and even for strangers.
...wouldn't admit it, but he kind of prefers times of /minor/ crises when he has an excuse to be in action instead of time to think quietly.
...dressed up as lots of super heroes growing up, but never wore the 'S' until he actually had started heroing seriously.
...genuinely has no idea how to be a 'normal teenager', and is really bad at it when his natural charisma and outward confidence can't carry him.

... has, absolutely, made those four trips, with help from Lucas and Moira, that Tehya wanted, and sings and swims often.
... hasn't given up hope that Granny will manage the cure soon, so she can have her own body again, even though she's grateful for what she has.
... keeps up with her studies pretty well
... misses the Forest, but wants to stay on Midgard for now.
... fears losing Moira.

... is quite capable of getting angry when she feels her home has been violated of her family threatened.
... bears no bitterness over the state of her legs, and Alex's adorable attentiveness more than makes up for the pain and inconvenience
... likes Anni-Frid best of all of ABBA, and is quite obviously obvious about it.
... thinks she could use some more training.
... doesn't enjoy melding with certain types of metal. They're uncomfortable.

...really is as nice as he seems.
...loves little kids and cubs.
...may love being outside as much as possible and avoiding most madern conveniences most of the time outside classes... but he still usually has a radio somewhere nearby to listen to baseball and hockey games.
...can be lured inside most easily when the Rockies or Avs are playing on TV
...honestly hasn't 'looked at' any other girl since he started dating Moira.

... enjoys being a Renaissance Girl.
... is sporadically pursuing her degrees in linguistics and anthropology with minors in biology and non-profit business.
... makes a good baseball umpire.
... enjoys jamming along with recorded music; swears she can still tell if she's getting better or not.
... annoys her mother when she practices her Cathtillian accent.

... loves his family (using the term loosely), his homes, his team, and chili chocolate shakes.
... really does want to sculpt something that is to slash-and-burn agriculture what Guernica was to the Spanish-American War
... or at least as good as Kseniya's work on the Second World War; gods, why does she have to be married?
... is going to accumulate a massive collection of legal deeds to rainforest during his lifetime.
... still likes Annette Funicello.

...is still having trouble believing that he's not going to wake up one of these days and find out Mickey dying was just another speed force 'might have been'
...bumps into things all the time, not because he's clumsy, but because fixed objects are still a tricky concept - but not as bad as he was.
...still gets the urge with some movies that have a large enough societal presence, or importance to a member of the Flash family that he's 'seen' them to say 'that's not how it goes' when he remembers some other universe's version better.
...occasionally speed learns languages, though it never sticks, so he can read books in their cultural original before he forgets.
...would die for Nic or Cindy especially - and quite possibly others, but also has only a loose sense of mortality.

... is a Robert Burns fan.
... stinks at imitating Hogun, when you get right down to it.
... like all of his family, supports the Chastening of the Huns, commonly known as 'being a Glasgow Celtic fan,' but it sounds better the other way.
... thinks Hjordis is the Prettiest Shieldmaiden Ever.
... would/knows he will die for his cousins and for Asgard, but would/perhaps will happily point out with said dying breath that the Forest is an autonomous principality.

... is so hardcore UU she almost intimidates the rest of her youth group.
... likes Little Women to insane levels.
... dislikes the song Milkshake because it's about sexual manipulation, and that's an awful thing to associate with the loveliness of milkshakes.
... has been known to sing along with the song "Affirmation" and get very top-of-her-lungs on the "I believe that God does not support TV evangelists!"
... has faith in Jay.

...is possibly the only person in 100 miles of Avengers Mansion who doesn't know Susie has a crush on him.
...truly has no hobbies or 'down time' activities. He can fake it, thanks to momtwo, and hobknob, deal with dignitaries, whatever, but if he's not saving the world, he has trouble not seeing it as wasting time.
...believes utterly in the promise of a better world and is willing to die without hesitation to achieve it.
...has had plenty of offers, appreciates women, and appreciates Momtwo's advice enough to occasionally attend events with someone on his arm, but hasn't pursued any kind of relationship.
...is well above average intelligence, but downplays it out of a general lack of interest in academia (aside from memorizing ballads and appropriate gift lists for practical contacts) and because he appreciates being surrounded by even more brilliant people and just gets out of their way.

...has faith in himself almost solely due to his girlfriend's faith in him... and his faith wavers regularly.
...idolizes the idea of his father, despite never having met the man.
...celebrates Ruth's birthday, not his own, despite the fact it shares a date.
...is actually a pretty good QB, and quickly developing some school spirit at Cal.
...is pretty sure he's strongly disposed to alcoholism because he even likes the beer everyone says is horrible, and can drink sour mash whiskey straight without making a face.

... has considered a pamphlet, Uncle Reed Style, to help Susie face the idea of actually asking Solver on a date someday.
... has had only one boyfriend whose statements she couldn't constantly analyze for deceit. And even he didn't work out in the long run.
... loves her family -- all of them but Nathaniel and Doom -- to pieces.
... hates mystic problems, because she has inherited the Inability To Be Any Good At Magic.
... loves Leslie Fish music, just like Dad.

...still feels horribly guilty about A) being a lesbian and B) coming out of the closet.
...feels even more guilty about falling for Molly, and letting Molly fall for her when she knows the odds of ever seeing her again.
...isn't sure she'd go home even if she could after all she's experienced, as much as she's changed, and as much as she feels like she'd be dooming someone else to Exiles road.
...really wants to get her teammates home.
...is at the point where she considers worlds with an accessible gym, available ice cream, hamburgers or pizza, and an actual bed to be the height of luxury.

... has never really been much for dating. Since neither has Art, they've occasionally joked that they'll date when somebody finds them a set of twins.
... will not be sure what to do if Quinn or Tamara take that as a challenge.
... relishes his cheap taste.
... has very, very few violent bones in his body. You pretty much have to be threatening innocent people and/or talking trash about his Mama.
... enjoys watching/referring many different sports. Some of which don't exist outside Xavier's.
