Jess Mahler
Jess' weird fish-out-of-water life has left them with an enduring love/hate affair with common tropes. The relationship counselor recommended they break it off, but they just keep coming back to play with tropes (and fuck them up) some more.
In between their tropic indulgences, they write queer fantasy with queer, aromantic, neurodivergent, and generally 'weird' characters, take care of their family, argue halakha, and try to do a bit of educational activism on the side.
Seven strangers. One chance to make a family.
Reimund thinks he has it made. Mildthryth isn’t having any of it.
