for dempsie or gilgun, maybe a cousin who stops by to visit for the weekend and then just never leaves. or a friend of some sort! through one of his past jobs, or one of the billion little go-nowhere bands he's been in. i'm open to anything, though, if you wanted to figure out something else! for sophie, an unlikely friendship. where he's kind of ended up looking out for her even though he claims he's not the type to do that. could even be a cousin, thing, too.
