The All-Mighty Sunshine Girls (Series)

This series, the longest running one in my Gleekathon, tells the story of Rachel and Quinn rediscovering their childhood friendship through a picture of them in the guise of their invented characters, "the All-Mighty Sunshine Girls." As the story progresses, the old friendship comes to be rekindled. [Note: this is Rachel and Quinn linked as friends, not romantically]

Rachel & Quinn
This series, unless specifically reasoned to, will solely follow Rachel and Quinn's perspective. In their respective romances, while they may be mentioned, they will remain in the background, leaving the foreground to the two of them.

In the context of the Sunshine Girls of their childhood, they have defined characters: Their 'mascot' was a glass turtle called Sunny.
 * Rachel takes on the persona of "Beams," and her costume is all of red.
 * Quinn takes on the persona of "Rays," and her costume is all of blue.

Parents
Quinn's parents, Russell and Judy, appear, as does her sister, here called Alice.

Rachel's fathers appear as well, referred to as Pop (Al) and Dad (David).

Spouses & Children
In the future we are primarily introduced to Hailey and Hannah, daughters to Quinn and Rachel respectively. The following information is presently available as to their families:

Rachel's family
Rachel is married to Puck. They have one daughter together, Hannah (6 years old) as well as sons so far only referred to as 'the boys.' Puck also has one daughter with Quinn and they share custody. They primarily live in New York, but also have a house in Lima.

Quinn's family
Quinn is married to Finn. They have one daughter together, Hailey (6 years old) and are presently expecting another child. Quinn also has one daughter with Puck and they share custody. They live in Lima.

Sunshine Girls 2.0
Hannah Puckerman and Hailey Hudson have begun to learn of their mothers' story as the Sunshine Girls and since then started their own version of the former sunshine-spreading superheroes.
