Alrighty so Iunno what took me so long to post these but HERE THEY ARE THE BIRDS THAT ARE IN THE TITLE I SHALL EXPLAIN THEM FOR EVERYONE NOW.
The Griffs here are step brothers! The white headed one is Chuck, and the black sorta angsty looking guy is Seth.
They live together in an apartment that Chuck rents, and in exchange for letting Seth live there, Seth plays guitar in Chuck’s band, XO1989 (Which is just Hugs and Kisses 1989).
Chuck runs and operates that band as his own. Seth was introduced into the band when XO1989 lost their vocalist and guitar player due to a creative dispute. Since then, the band has regained new members, but has failed to regain the same amount of popularity it had with its prior members. Chuck constantly battles with creative doubt and frustration over his band’s once prominent spot in the local pop punk scene.
Chuck is otherwise a very out going bird. He’s super confident, and strives for the best in what he does. He carries out his will with confidence and tries to make the best with what he’s got.
Seth on the other hand is a character that’s experiencing a very lost chapter of his life, wondering what it is that he’s really meant to do, and not being particularly confident that any of his skills will bring him very far in life. He’s very internal and thinks a lot to himself. If you ask him where you both want to eat, he’ll take 10 minutes to really think out that kind of decision. He processes every causality.
That helps Seth sometimes in life, however, and it’s what Chuck needs to balance out his willingness to jump into something that could potentially burn him. Seth trusts Chuck, but the two otherwise have a very brother like relationship. Seth and Chuck constantly disagree, Seth is a bird of few words, and Chuck seems to be the one talking most of the time.
Seth is also a very blunt character. He’s not afraid to tell people whenever he thinks something isn’t going to work. He’ll very easily tell Chuck to his face whether or not he thinks something is out of place in his logic.
And Seth never much likes to hear Chuck’s lectures on life, since Chuck has been around more than Seth has. Seth does always take Chuck’s words to heart though, and he does truly trust him.
A good example of this would be the Punk Bird hoodie that he’s wearing here.
The story behind that is one Seth got moved into the apartment with Chuck, that Chuck had some left over band merch from a previous tour he’s done. Chuck in his excitement to see another bird wearing his merch, gave Seth the hoodie and told him to try it on.
Seth kinda grits his teeth a tiny bit and puts it on.
Chuck thought it looked pretty nice, but Seth pointed him out on how tacky it was to wear your own band’s merch.
Chuck kinda just was just like, “Well, I think it looks cool so. Keep it or not. I got more.”
And so Seth wears it mostly because he does love Chuck, so out of sorta this brotherly love kinda thing does he wear it.
ANYWAY yea there’s a lot to these characters.
Enjoy them!
