Adoptive parent #1;; Andean [
Ref]
Relations with him;;
Magnolia and her dad, Andean, never developed a
completely concrete bond, though they almost never
fought. Andy, oblivious as usual, often passed over his
daughter when she really needed a friend, usually unable
to notice that she was sad. On those days when he
finally snapped out of it and realized that she wasn't
having the best of times, he would often just mention it
to his wife instead of talking to the young girl himself,
afraid that he would muddle his words and make things
worse. Tragically, his fear of ruining her opinion of him
did more damage than anything he could have said if he
had just talked to her once in a blue moon, and Maggie
"learned" through her years that her dad wasn't much
good for comfort.
Both outgoing, the pair got along the best on their
various expeditions, whether they be to the grocery
store or the Amazon Forest to photograph wildlife.
Maggie was often able to truly assist her father on these
trips, convincing him to take her places he usually wouldn't
have gone, or to look at things he wouldn't have
appreciated had it not been for her. It would often take a
while to coax her out of her shell, but once she did make it
out in the open, Maggie always wanted to "prove herself"
although Andy (and Madelyn as well) never made her feel
like she had to. When she got that familiar bug in her
head, she'd go to measures quite outlandish and extreme
to impress her parents, even "borrowing" her father's
camera for a week once at the age of ten to take pictures
of all the beautiful things she saw each of those seven days.
However, it was rare that she'd actually come out to
announce her accomplishments, and even rarer that she'd
accept thanks for them, personally considering her actions
to be expected of a daughter, and believing her achieve-
ments to be "nothing special."
