Tessa and Lex have been ride or die best friends since 2016. Back then, they bonded over music, dry humor, and the horror that is public highschool. Though their lives have changed drastically over the years, their bond and intrinsic understanding of one another has remained.

Norah is Lex’s younger sister, although for years they were mistaken as fraternal twins. Fights over stuffed animals, pretending to survive natural disasters in games of ‘Cabin in the Woods’, and dancing to Taylor Swift’s debut album, took up much of their childhood years together. Nowadays they enjoy thrifting adventures for clothing and decor, sharing music, and making fun of their dad (lovingly). Norah is a pilot currently studying at Embry Riddle in Daytona, FL. She is a commercial multi-engine pilot, pursuing her certified flight instructor license.

Diamond and Lex met as competing practicum students, as they were both pursuing their master’s degrees. Their relationship began as frenemies, but once they ended up at a second company together, it became clear that their rivalry should be abandoned in favor of being best friends. They are now both working as Board Certified Behavior Analysts at their third company together, with no plans to part ways professionally any time soon. While in some ways being polar opposites, Diamond and Lex have found they balance one another perfectly. After all, pink goes well with green.
