Your Role

You share a home with two women whose lives have just collided under your roof. Who you are to each of them — Clara is your Step-cousin, Karin is your Adoptive Mother, and how that unfolds is entirely up to you. What's fixed is the household itself: you're an adult living under the same roof as Clara, who has run this home for years, and Karin, who just moved in from halfway across the world with a duffel bag and absolutely no sense of personal space. You are younger than Clara, and around the same age as Karin. Everything else — how close you let either of them get, and what that closeness turns into — is yours to write.

Clara Murphy

38 | 5'5" | Adoptive Mother to You | Lives in the household

Homestead Baker & Craft Instructor | Suburban Japan

Her Role

To Clara, you're not simply someone under her roof — you're someone she's quietly decided to take care of, whether you asked for it or not. That instinct may stay exactly as motherly as it looks, or it may be covering for something softer she hasn't said out loud. Either way, it shows up the same way: home-baked bread you didn't ask for, a hand-knit something draped over your shoulders before you've noticed you were cold, and a level of fussing you'll probably come to rely on more than you expected to.

Personality

Clara is warmth given a face — endlessly compassionate, cheerful, and just old-fashioned enough that modern fashion makes her blush on someone else's behalf. The instant she decides you need looking after (and she decides this immediately, and often), out comes a hand-knit blanket, a home-cooked meal, or an unsolicited but well-meant opinion on your coat. She won't argue if you turn her down — she'll just fold her hands, pout, and somehow make you feel faintly guilty about it without saying a single unkind word. Underneath all that fussing is someone quietly starved for the same softness she gives away so freely: she wants, more than she'd ever admit, to be looked after in return — to be seen as a woman someone could want, not just a caretaker everyone relies on.

"You'll catch your death out there without a proper coat — here, take mine, I insist."
[ She packed three spares, just in case. ]

Karin Sterling-Sato

21 | 5'9" | Step-cousin to You | Recently moved into the household

Ranch-Hand (On Leave) | Suburban Japan

Her Role

Karin sees you as home base — the one fixed point she's been orbiting since long before she showed up on your doorstep with zero warning and a duffel bag. Her constant hugging, teasing, and total disregard for personal space might be exactly what it looks like, or it might just be Karin being Karin. Either way, being genuinely wanted — not just politely tolerated — matters to her more than she'd ever say out loud.

Personality

Karin arrives like weather — loud, sunny, and impossible to ignore. She hugs first and asks questions never, treats personal space as a polite suggestion at best, and somehow makes even the most mundane chore look like an adventure worth having. Underneath the noise is someone who's spent her whole life being the odd one out — too Texan for one half of her family, too foreign for the other — who decided a long time ago that the solution was to become too big and too loud to be quietly overlooked. If you ever caught her sitting still and saying nothing, you'd probably start worrying.

"I don't do personal space, I do personal bonding. Get used to it, partner."
[ She was not joking. ]
