What do you think about the theory(?) that Kevin's dad works for the mafia?
I think it's a pretty interesting theory!! I have heard of the theory either making Kevin's dad a mob boss, or another one that theorizes that Kevin's dad is a mob lawyer. The movies never delved into what type of job Peter McCallister has and I have seen how expensive that house is so the McCallisters have to be loaded to afford not only the freaking house, but also the vacations.
I also agree with the idea that Kevin's mom is a fashion designer since she had a bunch of mannequins in the house, and that she has some really nice fashion sense, but I can't see her being the main breadwinner of the family off of designing clothes. So Kevin's father definitely needs to be providing a good chunk of the cash they need to afford not only the house but also feeding and clothing 4 kids, paying for plane tickets for 7 minimum people around the holidays, and having to pay for normal expenses (gas, electricity, phone plan, ect.)
*I thought about tying in the mafia theory to be a part of Kevin's backstory in my fic, albeit with him not knowing about his father working for the mafia/mobsters, and I might add it in a different story instead of this one if I can't figure out how to organically place it into the current storyline.*

Chicago, Homes, and Crime
As always at this time of year I've seen some discussion about what Kevin's parents did in Home Alone(1990), and of course the dumb theory that they're mobbed-up.
They're not the mob. Chicago's economy has changed somewhat since the 1920s and, while The Outfit lasted for a long time, there is a far more likely class of criminal for the McCallisters to belong to.
It doesn't get as much press for it as Manhattan, but Chicago is a pretty significant city for Business. There's also, of course, The University of Chicago, which is a public Ivy(ie: a public uni at the level of an ivy league school), though neither McCallister really has an Academic vibe to me and there's NO WAY a university professor in 1990, or even TWO professors, could afford that house unless it was inherited(and even then I think the property taxes would have pushed them out). Winnetka, the suburb the McCallister house is in irl, is like 20 miles from downtown Chicago, just a short jump down 94 and 90. Idk where it's supposed to be canonically; the locations are from all over northern Illinois. I think we can be pretty sure they don't live IN Chicago since Kevin's so wowed by tall buildings in the second one(also wtf kinda parents live that close to a major metro and NEVER take one of their kids into town????).
tl;dr: The McCallister parents probably work in Chicago, PROBABLY in finance, business admin, or law(Kate, in particular, strikes me as a lawyer). The reason Peter(the dad)'s brother Frank is paying for their trip even though they're both Probably Loaded is because 1)Frank is EVEN RICHER Than them(probably corporate admin in retail or logistics given his faux-homesy demeanor, foregoing of a private jet, and second home in France) and 2)Rich People are Cheap Jerks.

Peter McCallister is too laid back after the previous year's fuck up. Kate at least is uneasy but Peter left Kavin with his bag. You would think that he would be trying to be sure that Kevin entered the plane - both because they left him home alone once and because he was in charge of Peter's bag.
And you know, many people pointed out that Kate McCallister didn't learn from that time she forgot about her son, but there were hints that she tried to prevent it form happening again by talking to Kevin after his outburst and checking if he's with them in the van, but after they get to the airport, they lose him and are still convinced that Kevin is with them.
Their only excuse - in both movies! - is that they were late for the plane. And yeah, it's kind of valid, but when they're in the plane, Peter just assumes everything is fine, while in fact, his wife's uneasiness should at least give him a moment to wonder if she's onto something.
The plot could be retained by him standing up to check the kids, but then being sotpped by stewardess, becuase hey, they're going to start soon, so nobody should move from their seat.

Summer’s headcanons: Faves sexualities! ✨
I realised I’ve never actually confirmed my headcanons for my faves and their sexualities! Of course I know with the Glee kids most of their sexualities are confirmed, but I still wanted to include them in this list. I also just want to clarify I’m only including my absolute FAVES on this list, I do have HCs for other characters who may not make that list. (IE: Quinn Fabray is a lesbian and in this essay I will-)

SHC: Kevin McCallister, Home Alone
So, I've not posted anything in years. But I am alive and well, thanks for asking :) Merry Christmas to those who celebrate! I recently rewatched Home Alone and have been thinking about my favorite blonde home security system's sorting. See TLDR below if you want a summary.
Kevin starts the movie as a very immature Snake primary. He wants what he wants-- a plain cheese pizza and a room to himself-- and doesn't seem overly concerned with the feelings of others. When he wakes up and discovers his entire family has disappeared, his first response is jubilation. I personally think that a Badger primary would have been pretty disturbed by this sudden lack of community, and a Bird would have questioned a bit more exactly what happened. Kevin, as a Snake primary, goes about living his best life. He jumps on the bed, raids his brother's room, eats a massive ice cream sundae, and watches the movie he was excluded from viewing.
The more time he spends alone, though, the more he realizes that he loves and misses his people. He sleeps with the family picture under his pillow. When making his request to Santa, he says, "I just want my family back. No toys, no presents, nothing but Peter, Kate, Buzz, Megan, Linnie, and Jeff. And my Aunt and my cousins. And, if he has time, my Uncle Frank." Frank, it seems, hasn't made it into Kevin's tiered Snake primary loyalty system.
Another hint at his primary is his conversation with Old Man Marley. He says, "I don't care how mad I was, I'd talk to my dad. Especially around the holidays." His dad is important than being right in whatever disagreement separated Marley and his son. I think a Lion wouldn't have that same sentiment, even if they missed their parent.
Lastly, after he runs home from that chat with Marley at the church, Kevin says, "This is my house. I have to defend it." What makes it worth defending is that it's his.
I think that Kevin has an impressive Bird secondary, though an argument could be made for Snake. The way I see it, Kevin is a planner. In his post-shower monologue, he lists all the things he's done til that point, and then discusses what he plans to do later in the day. He makes grocery lists and clips coupons. He draws up a master plan for the defense of his house, using tools that he's collected up to that point in the movie (micro machines, Christmas ornaments, etc.). He utilizes the mannequins in the basement for the fake Christmas party.
While he's pretty good at pivoting, it doesn't seem to be where he's at his best. At the grocery store, he manages to avoid the cashier's questions (Actor Bird?), but he doesn't appear to take any pleasure in being sly. He uses the movie the trick Marv, but it leads to further suspicion from Harry, which spells trouble for Kevin. When he's caught at the end, he doesn't try to run or talk his way out of it-- he's just stunned. His plan, which had been going so well, failed! Thankfully, his Snake primary saves the day. The connection he forged with Old Man Marley pays off. (The ending scene where he and Marley wave at each other always makes me cry.)
TL;DR
Kevin McCallister is a Snake primary who is alone in his inner circle in the beginning, but realizes how much his family means to him and brings them into his value system. His Snakey connection with Old Man Marley saves him in the end. His Bird secondary enjoys laying plans, clipping coupons, and making lists. He can pivot when he needs to, but that's not the first tool that falls to his hand.
(@wisteria-lodge what's your archetype name for the Snake Bird again? :))

I love drawing! I usually will draw on request for free, unless it makes me uncomfortable or I'm really busy.
about art trades!
I will do art trades with (almost) anyone. [quick how it works, in case you don't know: one of us asks the other about the trade and we agree to do it. then we each draw a character(s) of the other's choice. this doesn't have to be anything fancy; it can just be a little doodle. then we post the art and @ each other on the post. sorry if I'm not explaining it well ;-;] I mostly like doing Wordgirl- or FNaF-related trades since I'm familiar with the characters, but anything else on my fandom hyperfixation list works ;p
also I really like when people comment on + reblog my posts, it shows me you're interested and motivates me to create more content we both like ;D
my favorite characters to draw: Tobey McCallister, Violet Heaslip, Mangle and all the other Foxys, Glamrock Chica, Sun the daycare attendant, Fruit Bat, Penelope Barnes, Becky Botsford, the No-Face, Amari Peters, Dylan Van Helsing, Coraline Jones, Nobody Owens, Circus Baby/Elizabeth Afton, Michael Afton, fnaf crossover au glitchtrapped Terrance Maybeck
general favorites:
color: red and pink
band: The Living Tombstone
artist: TobyMac
video game: Fall Guys
food: curry chicken
drink: water
song: I Got No Time by The Living Tombstone
movie: Wreck-It Ralph
