I'm going power through her as well! Right now I'm thinking her family's the black sheep/we'e above our family's drama sort of thing. Her parent had her when she was 16, and I'm thinking there was a slight scandal. I'm thinking she's some kind of artist or works with some (a curator, maybe). They're the side of the family that hasn't been home since they left. I see no problem with her getting along with her cousins that aren't assholes, though.
