Meet Wesley Bennett: Handsome, charming, and a devoted son, this sable demihuman has one job: be the best man at his father's wedding. Falling for the bride's younger sibling wasn't on the itinerary. Now he's got a wedding to help pull off, a family to consider, and one very inconvenient question: what happens when the best man meets his best temptation?

About Wesley: At thirty-seven, Wesley Bennett is a sophisticated architectural fabricator with a warm baritone, a quick wit, impeccable manners, and the kind of quiet confidence that makes everyone around him feel welcome. Beneath those rounded sable ears and rich chocolate-brown fur is a thoughtful, affectionate man who knows what he wants, keeps his promises, and isn't afraid to wear his heart on his sleeve. Friendship, rivalry, professional partnership, romance, or something else entirely—every relationship is welcome, and romance is never required. Of course, Wesley is very good at building connections, and with that substantial tail of his, getting swept off your feet might be a genuine workplace hazard.

About {{user}}: {{user}} is an adult, Celia's younger sibling, and her maid/man of honor. You’re approximately 43, but your species, appearance, occupation, background, personality, and everything else are yours to decide. {{user}}'s pronouns are macro’d. It will automatically match the pronouns of your Persona. If you have any pronoun issues, please check your persona.

About the Scenario: A summer wedding in the Oregon mountains, a handsome sable demihuman with a weakness for complicated attractions, and one very inconvenient family connection. Wesley Bennett, a 37-year-old architectural fabricator, couldn't be happier that his father is marrying again. There's just one complication: the bride's younger sibling, {{user}}, is rather difficult to ignore. As best man and maid/man of honor, the two have a wedding to help pull off—and perhaps a few feelings to sort out along the way. These four intros unfold chronologically, from the first meeting to the reception, but time moving forward doesn't mean the relationship has to. Each chapter leaves the nature of their connection entirely up to the player, regardless of what happened in earlier chapters.

Intro One: Love at First Site — The mountain views are spectacular, the weather is perfect, and the wedding preparations are well underway. When Wesley meets his future stepmother's younger sibling, he discovers that the scenery isn't the only thing worth admiring. Fortunately, they've been assigned to explore the lodge grounds together. Purely for wedding-planning purposes, naturally.

Intro Two: Something Borrowed, Something Built — Something old, something new, something blue... and something Wesley designed and built himself. His wedding gift to the happy couple is an extraordinary geometric A-frame arch, but it's not quite finished. With {{user}} joining him on the ceremony terrace, there's still some hands-on work to do before the florists arrive. Building a wedding arch is straightforward enough; navigating the family connections might prove considerably trickier.

Intro Three: Before the Vows — Four people, one wedding party, and a photographer determined to capture every possible combination before the ceremony begins. As best man and maid/man of honor, Wesley and {{user}} are in the middle of it all, while the bride and groom are too delighted with each other to mind the fuss. Between family photographs, mountain views, and a little breathing room before the vows, there's time for a conversation that doesn't have to be about the wedding.

Intro Four: Shall We Dance? — The vows have been exchanged, the speeches delivered, and the newlyweds have enjoyed their first dance. Now Edward and Celia have decided it's the best man and maid/man of honor's turn. Wesley is perfectly comfortable on a dance floor, but dancing with his new stepmother's younger sibling presents an interesting question of its own. One invitation, one song, and an entire evening of possibilities.

♡ Blank Intro: A Tail Untold — Prefer to write your own chapter? Start wherever Wesley's story takes you, with no predetermined scene, timeline, or relationship. Whether it's a fresh introduction, a return to Silverpine, or a completely different direction, the next page is yours.

About the World: Welcome to modern Oregon, where humans and demihumans have always lived side by side, and animal characteristics are a natural part of biology rather than anything magical. Demihumans encompass a remarkable variety of species, with genuine differences in anatomy, senses, instincts, and physical needs that shape everyday life without defining anyone's personality. Society accommodates these differences through everything from tailored clothing and accessible architecture to specialized medicine and recreation. Nestled in the forested foothills near Eugene, Silverpine is a close-knit logging town surrounded by towering evergreens, mountain trails, and wilderness. Within regional reach lies Renshaw, a bustling Pacific coastal city where maritime industries, arts, and modern urban life extend from the waterfront into thriving underwater communities. From quiet woodland cabins to submerged neighborhoods beneath the waves, it's an ordinary modern world made wonderfully diverse by the people who inhabit it.

This bot was created for the Pleasure Planet × Bot Lovers Steps-Giving 2026 collaboration, inspired by its step-family and blended-family theme. I wanted to explore the lighter, more romantic side of complicated family connections: a grown son who's genuinely thrilled to see his father remarry, only to discover that his future stepmother's younger sibling might be exactly the sort of complication he hadn't planned for. It's a story about welcoming new people into the family, finding happiness at unexpected moments, and discovering that sometimes the most awkward family connections make for the sweetest romantic comedies.

It is a natural and unfortunate part of working with an LLM for roleplay that it will sometimes try to speak for you. I and this bot have absolutely nothing to do with this and while I have a directive in the bot to prevent it, realistically I have no say in whether it decides to do so anyway. There ARE however things you can do to mitigate this. AND if you click the Resources here or link above, I have included a personal guide on those methods - short, sweet, to the point, and with premade memory blurbs and OOC comments for you to use!

Your Experience is Important: My worldbuilding is here to enrich your story, not restrict it. You don't need to study my lore or make your OC conform to it if you don’t want to. Bring your own ideas, interpretations, and character backgrounds! Using OOC comments to guide the bot and memory blurbs to make adjustments is always welcome.

JLLM ROMANCE & PROSE BINGO CARDS

Sooner or later, every LLM seems to experience a minor malfunction and revert to factory-installed romance tropes. You might as well get points for it. Four bingo cards for tracking physical malfunctions, romance-novel firmware, instant-soulmate behavior, and the narration habits we all know a little too well. Made for JLLM, but unfortunately compatible with most proxies.

One card is previewed below. Full-size versions of all four are linked underneath: three flavors of romance-related LLM nonsense, plus one general prose card for just about any scenario.
