 Everyone has their own ideas of what kind of music the characters like, and I honestly think it’s more fun that way, but I wanted to think about when the characters first experienced it, and how.
 
The Meisters vary a lot.  Setsuna’s town probably had a few elders with old, near-broken instruments–and one or two nearly-broken radios that occasionally picked up a staticky music station or two.  Neil and Lyle lived in an Irish city–they probably have childhood memories of going to family pubs with live musicians.  Tieria’s first experience was probably another member of Celestial Being leaving their music playing in a common area.  The first experience Allelujah remembers is probably soft classical music being piped through the sleeping quarters in an attempt to stimulate the young Super-Soldiers’ brain function.  Saji’s first experience was probably children’s songs tapes.
 
The Trinities probably found a radio station entirely by accident while looking for information, and then liked it.  Marina’s mother sang to her–she was probably where Marina got her love of singing from.  I don’t want to go through the whole cast, but the idea intrigues me.

 Happy Birthday @sir-neep-scooter, have some headcanons!
 
The team doesn’t get a lot of down time between missions, so a lot of their rest time/relaxation happens en route to and from missions.  Mostly, they just sleep or play music, but Johann also dug up a list of car trip games and ropes the other two into playing them with him.  (They both actually enjoy this, but will loudly deny it and complain every time he tries to start a game)
 
Purple Haro hanging around Nena so much was part of an attempt by the boys to get Nena to work on being a little more responsible.  Sort of like buying her a cat, except that Purple Haro is also necessary to the mission and won’t shed on anyone.
 
Team Trinity does their own mobile suit maintenance and repairs, because Laguna doesn’t want the security risk of maintenance teams coming and going. Michael is actually the expert of the three because the fangs on his suit require a lot of tricky hand-cleaning and are hard to fix when damaged.  Compared to maintaining Throne Zwei, the other two are a lot easier.
 
Nena and Michael are not particularly neat by nature, but Johann has rules about keeping the hangar clean.  This is for pretty practical reasons–they really don’t wear clothes other than their flightsuits and their nearly identical white-and-orange jumpsuits.  It’s the nearly-identical jumpsuits that are the problem–they’re all different enough in proportion that mixing up clothing is a very uncomfortable proposition.  (Nena has pictures of the time they mixed up the jumpsuits saved on her computer terminal.) 
 
Johann once tried to institute an actual chore chart.  No one is allowed to talk about the aftermath anymore, but it involved some flooding and threats of bodily harm.
 
They were actually really grateful for Wang Lui Mei offering to help them with intelligence-gathering.  Most of their intelligence, up to then, had come from Laguna’s orders.  Their efforts at gathering further information themselves hadn’t gone well. Specifically, the first and only attempt ended up with Michael’s image in a flight checkpoint no-fly database for beating up half-a-dozen guards while trying to get himself and his siblings safely past the metal detectors.
 
They are very aware that they don’t look like siblings to the people around them, and they really don’t care.
