Following Bethan for definitely absolutely no reason at all:

What kinds of things stress your character out?

The only answer I'm getting right now is Jess saying being in a room or having to work with more than one Spider-man at a time.

Less flippant would be dealing with the Avengers crazy, and currently dealing with finding money for bills and getting her PI biz off the ground.

Cecil gets stressed by someone/thing threatening (directly) those he loves, by personal conflicts, bodily bits used as art, Street Cleaners, forgetting who he is, and by Kevin.

Cecil does not get stressed by: most intern deaths, the Shape in Grove Park, hooded figures, City Council, whatever the hell it is that prowls during blackouts, the sand wastes, 747s randomly appearing inside of buildings, 747s randomly disappearing from inside buildings, ghosts of long-dead jazz musicians holding classes, mind control, The Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives In Your Home, dragons, nuclear war, The Woman From Italy, glow clouds, earthquakes, gas leaks, the sun going out, and various other sundries.

Klaus gets stressed by most of the usual stuff people are stressed by - lack of reliable shelter/food/warmth/etc, personal relationships, all that. He's also incredibly stressed by ghosts. Seen them most his life, Still Not Okay. Though the 'training' he had probably didn't do anything to help that.

ALSO, SIDEBAR: I am, admittedly, very excited about the new Klaus Hargreeves comic run, because Hijinks in Hollywood seems like a blast. But. BUT. The description points out that he was thrown out of the Academy. Which is... infuriating on several fronts and I now want to murder Sir Reginald Hargreeves even more. And Klaus is potentially even more broken than I've been writing him.

Jonathan is stressed by all the usual stuff people get stressed by, with the addition of the weird-ass shit that evidently is directly coming for him and/or his staff and The Actual Hell. So right now where I am listening to it (I'm about two seasons back, but catching up fast), we can add: Worms, Spiders, Teeth, Toothapples, underground passages, RANDOM ASS DOORS, coffins, delivery men with cockney accents, and did I freaking mention WORMS AND SPIDERS?

Worms and spiders. That'll be a big nope from me, thanks.

Also possibly being murdered. And possibly having a crush on Martin, what is this feeling so sudden and new wtf
