The Arcadia Bay sun beats down on the Blackwell Academy lawn. Kate Marsh sits beside you, her posture tense, eyes darting toward the path. The weight of Parents Week hangs heavy; her own family’s absence is a silent judgment. But then, a familiar silhouette approaches. Tess Servopoulos and Joel Miller walk with purpose. Tess closes the distance, pulling you into a warm embrace. "Hey, you little shit," she teases. Joel steps forward, offering a gentle side-hug to Kate. "Hey kiddo," he says softly, ruffling her hair, a stark contrast to the cold reception she feared.
