Alec wakes up with slightly more variation than Viola, usually either 5am or 6am depending on the activities of the night before. Alec runs with Belladonna, lifts weights, sometimes swims, and showers before he joins Viola for 7am breakfast. Over breakfast he and Viola discuss current events and what the day will bring, and then Alec attends to his correspondence - both encoded and otherwise - and holds a few morning meetings before his elevenses at 10.30am. Isabelle joins him at this time to have breakfast. After morning tea his schedule is much less predictable, but usually involves either meetings within Aldwycke or travelling to London for business. If Alec chooses to stay out past dinnertime at 8pm he'll have his dinner at a club or restaurant in the city, and then sometimes stay out overnight to indulge in any of his usual vices or simply to socialize. However, half the time he comes home in time for dinner and indulges with Isabelle instead. His bedtime can be anywhere from 11pm to the wee hours of the morning; he's always been able to function well on little sleep, and can wedge naps in if need be.

Viola wakes up early, usually 5am, and begins the day with exercise (calisthenics and light weight training) and a shower. At 7am she and Alec take their breakfast in the morning room. After breakfast she attends to the household, either meeting with the butler and housekeeper or doing the household accounting, and then takes her bird for a walk before lunch, when she begins her day-drinking. Over lunch she indulges in some hobby or another, whether it's crossword, blackout poetry, or simply listening to music. She keeps her afternoons open for social calls and events related to the Underwood family business, Alec's personal business, the many committees she's on, and her work as a philanthropist and patron of the arts. Teatime, usually around 4pm, is a social affair. After having 8pm dinner with Alec and Isabelle, she usually finds someone or another to fuck. Then she showers, attends to her plants and prayers, and goes to bed at 10pm.

Isabelle's day is less structured and routine than either of her parents'. She wakes up the latest, usually around 8am or 9am, and has breakfast with Alec while he has his elevenses at 10.30am. At some point before evening Isabelle will see up to four tutors a day for an hour each on a variety of subjects depending on the day: literature, French, German, mathematics, science, etiquette, art, and music. At 1pm she breaks for lunch, and again at 3.30pm for tea. The time before and after tutoring but before dinner is open to her, and occupied with any of her hobbies ranging from piano to swimming to painting to cooking, although she always spends at least two hours a day playing piano. At 8pm she joins her parents for dinner, and then has some relaxing time before her 9.30pm bath playing dolls, enjoying the garden, or watching television. If Alec doesn't pay her a visit, she goes to bed at 10pm; if he does, it can be 11pm or later.
