DW: Alice Marian (Shields) Frost [45]
DH: Oliver Idris Frost [45]
AD: Adele Ophelia Frost [21]
DS: Everard James Frost [17]
DD: Morwenna Lucy Frost [16]
AS: Perseus Roan "Percy" (Cain) Frost [13]
AD: Caitriona Niamh Frost [7]
About a year after adopting Caitriona, Alice and Oliver decided their family was complete. They had dropped Adele off at university and they realized that the kids were growing up so fast. Alice and Oliver wanted to devote their remaining time to the kids they already had. However, as Robert Burns said, "the best laid schemes of mice and men often go awry." Three years after that decision was made the tragic death of Oliver's best friend and his wife left their thirteen-year-old son orphaned and in the Frosts' care.
Perseus Cain, called exclusively by the nickname Percy, has known the Frosts since birth. Because his father was Oliver's best friend, the two families often got together for dinner and they even spent many holidays together. Despite the close connections, Percy's naturally shy nature prevented him from bonding with Everard and Morwenna during their childhood and he had barely spoken to either Adele or Caitriona before his parents' death. He was staying with his grandparents while his parents celebrated their twentieth anniversary on a cruise and was therefore not present when the boat crashed and sank, taking them with it. He stayed with his grandparents until the will was all sorted out, sharing his grief with those close family members. By the time he moved in with Alice and Oliver, he was past the shock of his parents' deaths and, although he was devastated, he was able to see the move as an opportunity to start afresh at a new school (he had been bullied at his old school) and make friends. He tried to open up with the other kids, and has become quite close friends with two boys who share his passion for science and math. He tends to be tongue-tied around girls, but he is working to alter that with his new sisters. Adele is getting pretty far along in her engineering degree and can share all she has learned with her studious new brother. Morwenna, never one for studying much, likes to take Percy to her favorite natural spots and show him what she calls "real science." Percy hasn't made much of an effort to bond with either Dev or Caitriona, who remain close friends. Alice and Oliver hope that the siblings will get closer with age. In the meantime, the death of his best friend has hit Oliver hard and he is struggling to continue with life as normal after the event. He tries to spend as much time as possible with his new son, who finds the attention partially gratifying, partially suffocating. Caitriona feels slightly neglected because Oliver spends so much time with Percy.
