Personality
"Sometimes it's the world that's wrong, even when we're right. And there's not much we can do about it."

- Mom

Of the two of them, Mom appears more hot-headed or easier to anger. She does not like the injustice or the bullying her daughters face throughout their stands on the environment. Both parents, however, are realists. They understand the reality of what they can do and what power Monteverde has. Mom wants a lot of terrible things to change, but she does not want it to be done at the expense of her daughters.

With Each Other
By Chapter 10, Dad tells you that they have blown through their savings and can't afford to pay for the repairs to their vandalized property. When they realize how much Monteverde has done to their family, they are angry but still don't want you or Charlie to endanger yourselves. They want you two to be safe. Your father, however, had to talk your mom out of leaving a bunch of dead fish on Monteverde's doorstep.

Your Character
Although Dad and Mom support both support you and Charlie, they feel that Charlie needs to prioritize her education first before she tries to voice her stance on climate change and how to help the environment and save the earth. They also look to you to watch over your sister.

Charlie
