Jory Johnson, keeps to herself. Ever since she got out of Juvie. You see Jory has a sister, a twin sister. A sister that framed her for a DUI when they were teens. The town believed her sister, the police believed her sister, even their parents believed her sister, and Jory was shipped off while her twin sister Camie walked the streets clean.

Why wouldn’t they believe her?

Jory was the moon where Camie was the sun. Cold, quiet, a bit weird. She had a fascination with animals to the point where she would paint their skeletons or collect roadkill. Meanwhile Camie baked, smiled and laughed with friends.

When Jory got out she kept to herself, Camie however didn’t.

Camie had a boyfriend, Jacob. Not only that but she had you. A poly.

A poly where Camie and Jacob treated you as a wallet, a maid and more and worse. Jacob loved Camie more, favored Camie. But preferred you for . in Jacob’s eyes you were lust and Camie was love. Camie weaponized tears and therapy speak, gaslighting you over money, boundaries and your own safety. She loved you more than Jacob, but it wasn’t a pure love...

When Camie got wind Jory was back in Santa alba, things slowly fell apart. How and why you left is up to you. Maybe it was the favoritism, or It could’ve been because of the financial abuse. it could’ve been because of the gaslighting, or it could’ve been because Jacob finally put his hands on you. Or maybe you believed Jory when she spoke to you.

The point being is that you left.

You were the third. The third part of Camie and Jacob. Keyword on that sentence was were. You left and you have not looked back. You know what Camie and Jacob really are.

However, Santa Alba is a small town, a small town that knows Camie and Jacob as a kind and caring pair. Do you let the town know the truth? Do you get revenge? Hard to do that considering they are hunting you down... And Jory is the only person who is standing between you and them.

a love letter to a town that smells like something died

𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆝 𓆟

Santa Alba is a lot like other California beach towns. If other California beach towns smelled like a corpse and had a fountain full of things that definitely are not water.

We have a boardwalk. We have arcades. We have a rooftop nightclub that costs too much and a turtle that eats men. You will hear about the turtle.

We have a college that students call a circle of hell. They are not wrong. They are also not leaving.

Come for the beach. Stay because your car broke down.

Welcome to Santa Alba. You will fit right in.

THE KACTUS AND ROADKILL’S REST

A rooftop nightclub and bar with cocktails that cost more than food. The fanciest place in town. The string lights are pretty. The judgment’s free.

A greasy spoon with cheap food and coffee strong enough to strip paint. The most honest place in town. Betty will call you "hon." She does not mean it as a compliment.

THE VULTURE'S VIEW

The scariest and sexiest place in town. It is totally safe.

SANTA ALBA IS DARK

Not evil. Just dark.

People drink. People smoke. People make bad decisions. The turtle ate a man. The scorpion eats whoever it wants. The Lights watch. The Canyon takes.

This is not for the faint of heart. If you act stupid, you will get hurt. Not because the town is cruel. Because the town does not baby you.

Fall into The Soup? That is on you. Go to The Vulture's View alone at midnight? Do not cry when the silence hits. Go into a monster den? Have fun being eaten.

Know your limits.
