midnight train headcanons bc christ i know this game too well

neil has an affinity for animals like apollo but he’s definitely not as good with them as apollo is— he wants to be though! he’s that one guy who tries to pet the cats and they just hiss at him and run away and he is so dejected

when he gets the chance, he buys a bunch of mystery novels and reads them over and over. neil is very talkative, and he’ll sometimes talk about his favorite scenes in the latest novel he read, and luna will draw it for him!

neil also studies the stars a lot; he likes to read up on mythology! he ends up being pretty good with star signs and horoscopes as a hobby!

diana isn’t Emo™ but she does actually have a bit of a penchant for scary things, horror, and other dark fantasy. i like to think she might like gothic lolita!

considering her favorite colors are black and purple, and she thinks about death frequently, she probably is the type who wants to go all-out for halloween and such, but gets too shy to in the end hahaha

(neil might sew her cute clothes sometimes, it makes her super happy <3 and selene will dress up with her for fun!

apollo is a Shitty liar. and he’s so stubborn abt his lies too lmao. like you Have to show him pure proof that he is wrong or he will just not admit it despite everyone knowing that he’s lying lmao

i hc that when he gets the chance to eat as much as he likes he does— he will eat anything but meat, he’s a vegetarian! he practically inhales food

when he gets the chance he also spends a lot of time going to alleys of different cities and collecting the stray animals— he brings them to shelters, and volunteers at them often!

selene is actually really smart, she just hasn’t had the chance to learn or finish her studies. when she gets her hands on research materials on any subject she’s passionate about, she can learn about it really quickly!

((she learns a lot from diana and neil as well <3
considering her general knowledge of machinery, she probably studies that more when she gets the chance, and she makes a bunch of stuff to assist in everyday life!

she also learns about flower language from neil, and makes flower arrangements for everyone on their birthdays! in general she likes flowers and would totally make a huge garden! <3

(ch4 spoilers after this)
post-canon, luna tries out a bunch of different new things. she’s still trying to find herself, and she thinks that hobbies are a good way to start. she finds solace in art-related things, like photography! she likely enjoys flower arrangement too

when she gets better with using her hands, she tries to cook and bake as well and make her creations look aesthetically satisfying. (especially with the sweets she makes for neil!) at the beginning this is hit-or-miss but as time goes on she gets better!!

she also picks up dancing, as she has good balance and endurance! she finds this to be a good way both to express herself and to keep up her physical abilities!

because of copycat, luna has an affinity for cats, and she sometimes likes to help apollo on his missions to save them and give them new homes! she’s pretty good with them, considering her gentle nature, and when apollo teaches her more abt them, they like her more than him!

luna gets better at deducting with experience. i like to imagine her deductions together with neil similar to the deductions in dgs, in which the base is generally correct, but the conclusion is not, and neil helps her with that!

god what even i love this game sm??

anyway if you haven’t played it you should
