i LOVE this. we could absolutely do childhood best friends because i love the ebb and flow of a long arc like that, and it would especially work considering they're kind of an opposites attract coupling in general? we can scratch the childhood babysitting thing (cause tbh what parent in their right mind would ask QUEN) or just have it be a funny aside she still holds over his head like "oh hey remember that time you 'babysat' me and smoked weed the whole time? YEAH ME TOO" kind of thing. quen has never been good in school though he's not stupid, he was just happy riding the slacker train and partying too much and making music and that didn't really stop until he got signed? so he's still a big man child who is finally starting to work on being more of an adult now that 30's on the horizon. if his cousin still comes into game, i believe she's going to be a teacher too, so maybe that could be a point of reconnection for them if you wanna say they've been drifting a bit for a few years on those opposite tracks so we can pull them back together in game for an organic build, maybe? i'm so easy. let me actually get you a custom to throw some ideas around 🤠
