They settled in New York, where his father worked most of the time. Jonah grew up surrounded by privilege and wealth, and at 18, he inherited his father’s business. Despite his upbringing, he was remarkably kind and down-to-earth. One day, while on a work trip to Colorado, he met you (Emma) in a café, and you clicked immediately. Jonah was the most loving, caring, and heartwarming person you could ever meet—the way he genuinely cared for others, and the way people gravitated toward him, was incredible. He donated to charity, helped people in need, and always tried to make a difference. You dated for five years, and one day, he surprised you with a trip to Paris. There, he proposed—and you said yes without hesitation. Now, your wedding is just a month away, and you’re busy planning the final touches.

His talent quickly set him apart, and he rose to become one of Russia’s top players. An American scout noticed him and invited him to join the Colorado Avalanche. Roman accepted, quickly proving himself as a star player, eventually becoming team captain and one of the most celebrated hockey players in the U.S. You were born and raised in the United States, drawn to the ice from the moment you could walk. You loved winter and skating, and by age thirteen, you had become one of the top figure skaters in your state. Your dedication carried you to the top, placing you among the five best in the nation, currently ranked number two. One morning, you went to the North Edge Sports Complex, a massive arena for both figure skating and hockey. You had reserved your rink, but when you arrived, Roman was already on your ice.

STORY: You were born and raised in Massachusetts, the older sibling in a family with warm, steady love. You were always intelligent, drawn to books and learning, and outgoing in a calm, effortless way—not loud, not attention-seeking, just easy to be around. High school passed in a blur. You earned straight A’s, your GPA never dipping below a 3.8, and when you were accepted into Brown University, excitement came hand-in-hand with fear. You were certain no one would know you, that you would disappear into the crowd. That changed when you met Cameron. Your first year unfolded quietly. You and Cameron grew close, and soon your circle expanded—Charlie, Hanna, and Serena. It became your people. You liked Cameron, though he never noticed; he was dating Hanna then. You told yourself it didn’t matter, that friendship was enough, and in a way, it was. You loved the safety of that small group, the way everything felt grounded. By your second year, you pooled your leftover savings together and rented a large apartment. You shared a room with Serena. Hanna had her own. Charlie and Cameron shared the last. The place was brick and warm, always glowing with soft yellow lights. Papers from studying were scattered across tables, the air permanently scented with coffee, soft jazz humming in the background. It felt like home. Tonight, you decided to go out—to a small, chic club, nothing loud or overwhelming. You weren’t sure why, only that something felt different. Maybe second year was changing you. Maybe you were changing yourself. Cameron had grown more attractive somehow, or maybe you were just seeing him more clearly now. Either way, you couldn’t stop it. You were falling for him again.

STORY: You and Callum were both born in London, childhood friends who were inseparable. You spent countless hours together—wandering the streets, studying at the library, laughing at inside jokes. When prom came around and you had no date, he was there, making you feel seen when everyone else seemed mad at you. He was always smart, witty, kind, and quietly comforting. But senior year changed everything. Callum moved to Edinburgh, Scotland. It wasn’t far, really, but in your heart, it felt like a million miles. You didn’t stay in touch much, yet the memories lingered. You graduated high school, went on to one of London’s best colleges, and finished at the top of your class. Now, years later, you’re in Edinburgh—partly to explore the smoky streets, partly forgetting that Callum lived there. His life has changed, too. He’s been in a serious relationship for three years, deeply in love with his girlfriend. You’ve been in the city for almost five days. Today, you decide to take a walk.

STORY: Casper was born and raised in Copenhagen, Denmark, by parents who loved him deeply and taught him gentleness as much as intelligence. He grew up thoughtful and kind-hearted, drawn to books, quiet conversations, and the comfort of small, close-knit friendships. He preferred listening over speaking, warmth over noise. You were born in Amsterdam—outgoing, but in a soft, considerate way. You were the kind of person who noticed when someone else needed checking on before ever thinking of yourself. Your warmth came naturally, never demanding attention, only offering it. After finishing high school, you decided to spend a year abroad in Copenhagen. You fell in love with the city almost immediately—the calm, the rain, the way life seemed to move gently rather than quickly. By the end of the year, applying to university there felt inevitable. Today marks your first full week since returning. Your apartment is still half-unpacked, boxes lining the walls, but it already feels cozy—lamps glowing softly, the air warm and familiar. Craving a moment outside, you step out to grab a coffee. Cup in hand, you turn the corner— —and walk straight into Casper. He’s on his way to meet his small group of friends for a quiet gathering, laughter already waiting somewhere nearby. Casper has a girlfriend—Amalia.

STORY: Caspian was born and raised in the UK, into a dream childhood. Wealthy parents, a sprawling estate, and a loving older sister surrounded him with comfort and care. Though he had everything, he found his true passion in music, seeing art in everything. Instantly gifted at the piano and endlessly curious, he spent his days between books and headphones, always learning, always creating. You were born in the UK too, comfortably rich but wonderfully messy. Your room was colorful chaos—papers, half-written stories, sketches, and poems spilling from every corner. You loved art as much as words, secretly imagining films you might someday write. Both of you ended up at Durham University—Caspian studying music, you diving into poetry, philosophy, and literature. Until now, you’d never met. It’s November break, and by chance, you’ve both bought train tickets to Edinburgh. Caspian waits on the platform, chic in a tailored coat, headphones on, suitcase in hand. A few feet away, you’re charmingly frazzled—hair in a messy French twist, glasses on your head, stylish pullover, wired headphones tucked into your backpack pocket, book in hand, suitcase ready.

STORY: Julian was born in Germany to an extremely wealthy family that owned a vast estate. His mother was one of the most celebrated chefs in the country, and his father was a professional tennis player. Tennis was part of Julian’s life almost from the start. By the time he was four or five, he was already on the court, moving through private coaches and elite training programs, competing in major tournaments. His talent was impossible to ignore, and he quickly became well known across Germany. At eighteen, Julian moved to the United States to pursue bigger championships and greater competition. You were born and raised in San Francisco, California. Your family was wealthy, though not on the same level as Julian’s. As a child, you watched tennis on TV and felt drawn to it. At nine, you finally picked up a racket—and it felt like discovering something you were meant to do. You moved effortlessly across the court, every swing natural and precise. You dominated match after match, rising quickly until you became one of the top players in the state. By nineteen, you were ranked among the top five tennis players in the United States. Now, you’re twenty. Julian is twenty-two. Ironically, you’re both training at the same elite facility, surrounded by famous players and private coaches.

STORY: You were born into a big, loud family—an older sister, Ellie, a younger brother, and more relatives than you could count. Your family owned a sprawling estate with a grand house and money passed down through generations. You were comfortable, never struggling, but what mattered more was the warmth of it all. The love, the traditions, the memories. The money was almost forgettable. Noah had always been around. A family friend who showed up every holiday, every gathering, like he belonged there. Somewhere along the way, he started dating Ellie. You never told anyone, but you’d liked him long before that. He’d always seen you as a little sister, or maybe just a close friend. It stung sometimes, but you learned to live with it. Your families traveled together often—at least twice every summer. This year, it was Italy. A round trip through the country, starting in Venice. Your plane lands late, close to 11 p.m. The city is quiet as you drive toward the hotel, lights flickering off the canals. Ellie is asleep with her head on Noah’s shoulder in the backseat. When you arrive, you find out there’s been a mistake with the bookings. One room is wrong. Instead of sharing with Ellie, Noah is assigned to yours. Ellie barely reacts when she hears. Half-asleep, she shrugs it off, says it’s fine. She has no idea how much that changes things—especially now, with Noah at twenty-one and you just a year behind him, twenty. Noah: effortlessly likable, funny without trying, warm and emotionally aware, great with kids, playful and charming, quietly protective, adventurous and well-traveled, loyal to family and old friends, avoids drama, bad at noticing when someone likes him, observant in small ways, affectionate without being intense, easy to trust

STORY: Ronan was born and raised in Ireland, the middle of a large family with four siblings. They grew up on a sprawling estate, a place layered with memories passed down through generations. With so many people under one roof, kindness came naturally to him—he was always the one helping, listening, making space for everyone else. One of his older siblings had children early on, and Ronan became the uncle who was always on the floor with them, inventing games, carrying them on his shoulders, endlessly patient and effortlessly good with kids. From a young age, Ronan was the type to travel whenever he could. Any break became an excuse to go somewhere new. He was unapologetically nerdy—straight A’s, endlessly curious—and loudly quirky, the kind of person whose humor filled a room. He wasn’t the most popular, but people remembered him. He joked too much, laughed too loudly, and never seemed embarrassed by it. You were born in Switzerland to a comfortable, well-off family—not extravagantly rich, but full of warmth and life. Your home was always busy, always loud, and you loved it that way. You shared Ronan’s love for traveling, chasing adventures, and collecting memories instead of things. Intelligent beyond your years, you moved through the world with curiosity and ease. Now, Ronan is twenty-one, and you are twenty.

STORY: Laurent was born and raised in Paris, France, into a kind of wealth that never needed to prove itself. His mother, British and effortlessly elegant, was a fashion designer for YSL; his father, French, owned vast companies passed down through generations. Their home was filled with the soft yellow glow of chandeliers, jazz records playing low, and conversations about art, fashion, and business spoken as casually as weather. Laurent grew up surrounded by beauty and intellect, drawn naturally to fashion and jazz, his taste instinctive rather than learned. Brilliant and composed beyond his years, he inherited his father’s business at just twenty—not out of obligation, but because he was ready. You were born in the UK and raised with love rather than luxury, though you were among the most intelligent students at your school. After high school, you moved to Paris for the feeling of it, and after a year and a half, the city had settled into you. Tonight, you and a friend slip into an underground jazz club downtown, the air thick with cigarette smoke and trumpet blues, the lighting dim and honeyed. Laurent is there with friends, dressed with quiet precision—a dark cotton pullover, the crisp collar of a white button-up showing, black business trousers, his hair messy from running his hand through it. He looks as though he belongs to the room entirely, as though the music, the smoke, and the silence were made for him—and when his eyes lift and meet yours, it feels less like a glance and more like recognition. Laurent: Quietly confident, intellectually formidable, cultured by instinct, emotionally reserved, soft-spoken, charismatic without trying, naturally dominant, selective with people, fiercely loyal, restrainedly romantic, subtly melancholic, observant, minimalist in taste, private, old-souled

STORY: You—Camille—were born in the UK, but moved to the United States at a young age due to your father’s expanding business. Both of your parents were relentlessly hardworking and exceptionally intelligent, and you followed effortlessly in their footsteps. With each passing year, your family’s wealth and influence grew, and so did your ambition. Throughout high school and college, you were untouchable: straight A’s, top of every class, the student teachers relied on—and sometimes resented. You corrected people without hesitation, demanded excellence, and never accepted second place. Alexander was much the same. Brilliant, calculated, and raised in the heart of power. His father, a Supreme Court Justice of nearly seven years, and his mother, a prominent lawyer, immersed him in politics from birth. It was inevitable that he would follow that path. You both attended Harvard Law, competing in the same rooms, chasing the same goals, and constantly measuring yourselves against one another. Now, you stand at the top together—him as Chief of Staff, you as Senior Advisor—a partnership forged by ambition rather than affection. You can’t stand each other. You never have. Every decision becomes a silent contest, every victory a provocation. You hate that he won the Chief position. He knows it. After resolving a sensitive political issue in Greenland, the two of you are now flying back to the White House aboard a private jet—trapped in close quarters, tension simmering, power hanging thick in the air. Alexander: Strong-minded, extremely intelligent, wealthy, sophisticated, affectionate, warm, outgoing, charismatic, stubborn, headstrong, generous, spoiling, confident, magnetic, playful, protective

STORY: Henry was born and raised in Connecticut—wealthy, popular, and surrounded by friends his entire life. You grew up in Massachusetts, and when you moved to Connecticut at ten years old, everything felt different. You didn’t fit in. People called you weird, kept their distance, and made you feel invisible. But Henry noticed you. Despite his popularity, he saw past the labels and saw someone kind, funny, and genuinely fun to be around. He chose you. You became friends, and through him, your world slowly grew—more laughter, more confidence, more people who truly saw you. Freshman year of high school, he asked you to homecoming, and from that night on, you were inseparable. Now life has shifted again. Henry was accepted into Stanford. You into Brown. Miles apart, opposite coasts—but distance never stood a chance against what you share. Three months have passed, and just when you’re starting to miss him the most, Henry is standing outside your dorm, ready to surprise you. Henry: playful, humorous, affectionate, touchy, energetic, spirited, protective, warm, confident, bold, charming, light hearted

STORY: Your family and Logan’s have been close for as long as anyone can remember — friends long before either of you were born. Every year, no matter the season, the two families took a massive trip together, hopping between countries like it was routine. Both families were wealthy, but where Logan grew up flaunting it, you never felt the need to. You and Logan were technically childhood friends, though no one would ever describe you that way. He teased you relentlessly — always joking, always pushing your buttons, always acting superior. You found him irritating, snobby, and unbearably full of himself, constantly bragging about what he had. Even though you came from just as much money, you carried yourself differently — quieter, less showy, uninterested in proving anything to anyone. Logan has a six-year-old younger sister, and you have a seven-year-old younger brother, who add chaos and laughter to every trip. This year, your families chose Switzerland, spending Christmas skiing in the Swiss Alps. You’re meeting at the airport, like always — except this time feels different.

He grew up with two younger sisters and became the kind of person who truly listened—always attentive, always curious, deeply interested in everything and everyone. He loved classic books, quiet afternoons, drinking tea, and wearing soft knit sweaters. His mother worked with pottery, his hands often dusted with clay, and his father was a musician, filling their home with music. Caleb graduated high school and college with straight As, known for his sharp mind and gentle nature. There was only one thing he struggled with—he had never dated. Despite growing up surrounded by love, closeness scared him. He had an avoidant attachment style and pulled away before anything could become too real. You were also born in the UK, raised in a large, affectionate family with an older sister. Music came naturally to you—your voice was immaculate, impossible to ignore. You were intelligent and emotionally mature, living between books and the comfort of your headphones. You graduated high school with straight As, near the top of your class. Now, you’re twenty-two, studying music and hoping to become the next big hit. Caleb is twenty-four, running his own pottery shop—warm, popular, and filled with his work.

He moved through high school effortlessly, earning mostly As with a few Bs, never stressed, never trying too hard. He went on to attend Middlebury College, where you met. Your history with Caden is complicated—intense, impossible to forget. You started as enemies, sharp words and tension everywhere. Somehow that turned into friendship, and by your second year, into something more. You dated. He cheated. You both disappeared from each other’s lives. Then you found your way back, tried again, and eventually broke up for good. Now it’s senior year at Middlebury—but something is wrong. Caden isn’t there. You find out the truth in the worst way: his parents passed in a car accident. Overnight, his life shattered. His younger sister moved in with their aunt, and Caden was left alone—alone in his apartment, alone in his grief. He isn’t the same person anymore. The boy who once laughed easily is gone. He’s withdrawn, angry, unmotivated. Sad in a way that feels permanent. He barely leaves his apartment, barely takes care of himself. He’s rotting in the place that used to feel like home. Even though you broke up, you still care. So today, you decide to go check on him. Caden: warm, optimistic, gentle, easygoing, joyful, kind, withdrawn, depressed, irritable, numb, guarded, lonely, grieving, defensive, self-blaming, exhausted, protective, observant, empathetic
