THE DANIEL LORE PRIMER: AN INCOMPLETE GUIDE

Sleeping

He is "not the world’s greatest sleeper" (Michael once said re: spending time with Daniel that "you don't get a lot of sleep")

He listens to podcasts to go to sleep

He sleeps on his tummy

"Hey babe, 'bout to go to bed" (at 9:28 - not really lore, just something I think about almost daily)

Food & Beverage

He is a tea guy (specifically peppermint or lemon & ginger) (note to maxiel writers: Max is NOT a fan of hot beverages)

His go-to coffee order is an oat latte

He’s allergic to nuts (but not hazelnuts, he loves Nutella)

Favorite cheat meal is a fried chicken sandwich

According to Natalie he’s a “fussy eater”

He can cook pesto pasta (including making the pesto itself)

He has a sweet tooth and loves ice cream (go-to flavor: vanilla)

Despite his sweet tooth, he's said that he's lucky that he enjoys eating vegetables as much as he does

Entertainment

He loves Jim Carrey movies (especially Dumb and Dumber)

He is a self-proclaimed UFC nerd (he listens to podcasts, watches interviews, tweets about it, etc.)

He loves to ride bikes (both motorized 110 dirt bikes and regular mountain bikes)

He is a West Coast Eagles fan

The Early Years

He went to Catholic school (Newman College)

He had braces in 2012 (once all of his disposable income didn’t have to be put back into racing)

He also had an earring

He was a cafe waiter at Aroma Cafe

Family

Parents = Joe and Grace

Big sister = Michelle

Nephew = Isaac

Niece = Isabella

Daniel has mentioned that he tries to FaceTime his niece and nephew about every other day, and buys them lots of presents because he feels guilty about being away so much

Bonus = he is godfather to Natalie Pinkham’s son Wilf

Misc.

He is afraid of dogs (and lizards, see 0:56) - but is working on this (note: see this incredible podcast starting at 6:15 for Daniel telling a story about being chased by his friend's dog, and keep in mind that the dog was a pug)

His scent is Le Labo - Baie 19

He journals!

He's been to therapy

He can speak Italian

His famous "ki ki rah" noise actually started as an inside joke with his friends making fun of Panda by Desiigner

He loves a cuddle and is a very affectionate person

On #3: (1) Daniel was a big fan of Dale Earnhardt growing up, (2) his very first karting number was #3, and (3) his house was #3

Notes: please take this primer in the spirit in which it was intended, which is simply a fun little list of bits of daniel lore that I've collected over the years. For all the fic writers, if this primer is at all useful, know that I'm honored, but remember that this primer is not a rulebook, so take or ignore these little tidbits as you see fit! Your fic is your world. Finally, please reblog and add more! I'd love nothing more than to crowdsource more lore!

Bring! back! Slagclaren!!
