Upbringing[]
Origins and Family Dynamics[]
August Fooze and February Snooze, the eccentric parents of the Fooze family, initially bonded over the fact that their names were months. This quirk led them to name all of their children after the remaining months of the year. According to April, their parents were "crazy proud" and "a little psycho," as they timed their pregnancies to ensure their children were born in the corresponding months.
Despite their shared enthusiasm for their unique naming tradition, August and February’s marriage was far from harmonious. By the time January was born, the couple had started living in separate rooms. Their eventual divorce caused a deep rift between the siblings, splitting them into two groups. June, July, and September went to live in the suburbs with their mother, February, while January, March, April, May, October, and December stayed with their father, August.
Parenting Styles and Favoritism[]
August Fooze was known for his generosity—particularly with money. April, for example, received a staggering $50,000 weekly allowance before moving to Los Santos. In contrast, February Snooze was described by both January and April as a neglectful mother, which contributed to their deep-seated mommy issues. However, September disagrees with this perception, believing that her siblings' harsh views stemmed from the fallout of their parents' divorce rather than February’s actions.
September, having grown up with her mother in the suburbs, was not spoiled like her sisters. She developed a different perspective of their mother and maintains that their father, August, was the truly toxic parent. September also noted that her mother became accustomed to suburban life after the divorce and that they frequently drank together, hinting at a possible shared alcohol addiction.
Sibling Relationships and Tensions[]
April took on a maternal role in January’s life, effectively raising her younger sister and becoming her primary role model. January idolized April as her true mother figure. However, this close bond with April also exposed January to her sister’s less-than-ideal influences. January read April’s smut books at a young age and even accompanied her to high school parties, sometimes being left behind with April’s intoxicated friends.
April and March had a complex relationship. Despite frequent arguments and clashing personalities, they were extremely close growing up. One notable incident occurred when April was five years old—March gave her a hand-drawn birthday card, but she threw it back at him because it wasn’t money. Deep down, April appreciated the gesture but didn’t want to set a precedent for receiving simple gifts, especially in front of their father.
March’s antics extended beyond innocent sibling disputes. On January’s 13th birthday, March orchestrated a prank by hiring clowns to “kidnap” her for content. He never returned to pick her up, forcing August to pay the clowns to bring her back. This traumatic experience left January with a lifelong fear of clowns.
The Twins and Birth Timing[]
June and July, the twins, were born just minutes apart between June 30 and July 1. April claimed that this timing was no coincidence—their parents planned the births meticulously and used a C-section to ensure they were born across two different months.
September’s Perspective and Trauma[]
Growing up in the suburbs, September had a different childhood than her siblings. She often played with her neighbors in the cul-de-sac but mentioned that her early interactions with boys instilled a fear of men, as they always seemed to hurt her. September also revealed that her nickname, “Emi,” originated from January’s mispronunciation of “September” as a baby. April later tried to teach her to say “Ember,” but “Emi” was all she could manage, and the name stuck.
December: The Protective Older Brother[]
December, the eldest Fooze sibling, is adored by his younger sisters, especially April and January. He was a constant source of support for January—giving her shoulder rides, chocolates, and money. Described by January as a “lady-magnet” and a sporty jock, December often accompanied their father on business trips abroad. His social circle consists of shirtless frat boys with massive trust funds, whom August tolerates solely for their wealth, despite considering them poor conversationalists.
May: The Enigma[]
May is a wildcard in the family. When Mickey Sinclaire remarked that she wasn’t a “complete fuck-up,” May admitted that her parents had said the same thing. However, given her psychotic tendencies and penchant for violence, this assessment remains debatable.
Lasting Impact[]
The Fooze upbringing left lasting emotional scars on many of the siblings, with each having a unique perspective on their family’s dysfunction. While some view their parents as neglectful or toxic, others see misunderstood individuals trapped by circumstance. The contrasting views have kept the siblings divided, reflecting the complexity of their upbringing and the different paths they each took.
2021-2023 (3.0)[]
In March 26, 2021, April moved to Los Santos after a car crash led her to leave her medical practice. Without the guidance of her family, she joined a gang and replaced her plans of becoming a doctor with becoming the richest most-successful musician and vlogger.
Connie, April's cousin, moved to Los Santos to join the LSPD as a Police Cadet. During her time in Los Santos, Connie never intended to meet or interact with April, who subtly insulted her.
11 months after April's first arrival in the city, her younger brother March visited and set up a prank by pretending to kidnap her. This attempt to boost the views on his channel angered April, and the two's sibling rivalry flared back up. However, the two eventually rekindled their bond and began to brainstorm future schemes together. A prank gone wrong landed March in the ICU, with his fate unknown. Soon after this their father, August, visited to check on March after the incident. Calling April from the airport to get a pickup, he turned his attention onto how her life was going and making sure she was getting enough funds from her sugar daddies.
While in the ICU, March was captured and impersonated by Joe Goldberg who donned his likeness to deceive his sister. In April, 2022, Joe revealed this to April after tricking and kidnapping her. He then threatened to kill March if April did not follow his orders, which involved helping him tie up loose ends. Left with no other choice, April complied and helped Joe hunt down his previous victims, involving her own friends. In the end, March escaped captivity and was reunited with his sister.
March continued his occasional visits to the city, and he and April were arrested by the police the following year following a car chase, with March taking the fall and spending a year in jail, losing his lifestime Sprunk sponsorship. Meanwhile, April became one of the most prominent singers in the city, winning several awards for her music.
Present Day (4.0)[]
April left the city to embark on her first headlining tour but quickly lost most of her fanbase after being cancelled twice online. She then lost $2 million after her younger brother March got her involved in a Cryptocurrency scam, causing a rift between the two. After eventually losing all her money, April returned to the city to re-chase her dreams and start over. April soon found March crawling around outside after an appendectomy, begging for money until she relented and gave him $200.
A few weeks later, May visited at the behest of April who wanted to push her out of her comfort zone. May Young struggled with social anxiety but perked up at the prospect of being able to purchase a gaming PC. After a trauamatic day in Los Santos, including trying to stab a dog and getting bitten by it, a terrorized May locked herself in the Apartments and hasn't been seen since.
January moved to Los Santos because she missed her older sister, April, and wanted to follow in her footsteps. In the weeks that followed, three of the ten Fooze siblings (January, March, & April) had a mini reunion and marked the first time three Foozes met in the city. January quickly made waves around Los Santos and with her impeccable charm, she won 1st place on the Rizz Rivals chart. March and April won 3rd and 4th place, respectively. This detail irked April but she later accepted it given their bloodline's innate beauty.
Meanwhile, March was up to his usual hijinks. He reunited with his Runescape "boyfriend" Alexander whom he had catfished for money back in the day, and subsequently introduced him to April. This attempted prank backfired, however, leading to both April and Alexander flaming him outside Senior Buns where his existence was a called an "L".
Early in March 2024, March revealed to his sisters January & April that their father August and their older brother December were planning to visit Los Santos. In the same month, September moved to Los Santos after spending most of her childhood estranged from her other siblings after opting to live with their mother February Snooze following their parents divorce.
On March 22, 2024, January was adopted by Ellis Pinzon and Lukas Lavender. During this time, her new adoptive parents vowed to pay for her tuition fees and weekly allowance of $5,000. Though it may seem like a scam, January is genuine about her admiration and love for her new gay dads.
On March 28, 2024, during the My Criminal Academia class within Bolingbroke Penitentiary, March was attacked by Vingle Dan who proceeded to cut off both of March's arms for his own use. March was brought to ICU, and January left class to go see him with April. His sisters swore to retaliate against Vingle, and get the arms back. March was later put in a full-body cast and attended the Academia prom.
On April 3, 2024, after April's 29th birthday party, August revealed on the phone that both October and December are arriving with him for a planned family camping trip in Los Santos.
