Warmer weather is rolling in for a lot of places; what do your OC's tend to do during the hot/summer months, and are they grateful or annoyed at the increase in temp?
You would think that someone with a name that LITERALLY MEANS "Sun" would appreciate hot weather, but nah. Elio hates stupidly hot and humid (especially humid) weather, because of how much it fucks with his hair and skin while making him sweat more than usual. Just because he learns to deal with it via Molesurya, being stuck in locations with either naturally or artificially high temperatures, and frequenting tropical locales situated near the equator, while filtering most of the heat through a naturally-produced Aura-coated epidermal layer once he reached a certain level of Aura mastery at an early age, doesn't mean he likes it nonetheless. Especially since he's prone to wear black, which typically absorbs an abundance of heat.
Regardless, it doesn't mean that summer doesn't have perks that he loves to exploit. When he was still in school, he would participate in mandated camping trips - usually related to Aura/survival training, family vacations, or summer outings in Undella Town or other parts of Unova. Now, he would like to either visit tropical islands or other summer-based cities or towns - going sightseeing, enjoying the beaches and resorts, and doing other touristy activities (that's if he's not being hounded by either paparazzi or his rabid fans).
Estella is Bri*ish so she doesn't tan so well, but she does actually like the sun a lot! When summer comes around she buys up a bunch of fashionable swim wear and takes to the beach for some ego stroking.
She likes swimming, and is a solid swimmer. She likes surfing, but she sucks at it.
Avian spends most of his time working that grind so he's mostly sweltering and hating the fact that he doesn't have air conditioning in his workplace. It's one of the times he prays he gets assigned gym matches in order to get out and feel the sunlight. That said the nights can get a bit uncomfortable with the stuffiness and need for fans to keep things cool. He enjoys driving up to Wyndon & Hulbury beaches and going on costal walks.
Arryn THRIVES in the heat and will spend any time not working sunbathing instead. She is very much a summertime gal. In addition to some gardening she'll still be rocking up the Battle Tower and wrecking people who think that getting in the Hall of Fame means they're tough.
Stahl is working almost as much as Avian but he has air conditioning so it ain't no problem, upside of questionable connections to the Eternatus Project. He spends a lot of time with the wife but will also chill out in the shade from time to time with a beer and watch the matches.
