Avril Eggleston is the mother of Alex and Allison Eggleston. Avril fell in love with Antonio at an unspecified date, watching Kaiju Mechajaw Returns on their first date.

She is a talented programmer who (presumably) worked for Pacific Chime, leading an unknown project. This job often leaves her away from home, forcing her to use e-mail or letters to communicate with Alex. However, she gets laid off from her job, leaving her out of work. She asks Alex to get a job to help with the bills, but he never applies himself enough to get one. Despite Avril seeming to have a lot of free time in this period, she interestingly isn't seen around the house again until November 1999, where she gets hired to work at Moon Macrosystems to fix the Y2K bug in their programs.

Personality

In Alex's story, she is portrayed as caring for Alex and having great faith in him, such trusting him to do the groceries or get a job, but perhaps her trust is misplaced as her son often fails her. In Nameless' story, Avril appears to be verbally abusive to Allison, swearing at her and treating her extremely poorly. This is almost certainly because Allison is the product of an affair her boyfriend Antonio had. When it comes to Alex, she babies him and is overly protective.

She may uphold more "traditional values", as she freaks out that Alex is hanging out with The Essentia 2000 specifically because her green hair. She may also dislike breaking the "rules" or going against authority figures, as it is mentioned by a Junctioned Self that Antonio made fun of Alex for being "too much like Mom" when he refused to enter the mall when his Dad told him not to.
