Akira Merlyn McWeldon-Shiratori (they/fae; 24) - Cat's best friend
Akira and Cat didn't meet until Cat moved into the area, although Akira grew up there. Their family being firmly middle class, Akira was raised by their two dads and grew up attending pride parades. Having always been a bit of a "tomboyish" child, it came as no surprise to anyone, least of all faer dads, when fae came out as nonbinary a few years ago. Akira owns and runs their own dance studio, making sure that all of their students have a safe place to be themselves. Instead of a traditional Thanksgiving food, fae brought a dish that faer Japanese dad loves: cabbage pancakes.

Ayoub Zaman (19) is Karam's younger brother. He traveled from Michigan to stay with his sister specifically for Thanksgiving, as he hasn't met her in the past year. He's currently running a vintage shop in Flint, Michigan, with his girlfriend. He's bringing the dessert: his girlfriend's Pistacchio Tiramisu

Tirzah "Titi" Abbatiani (19), Ayoub's girlfriend, considers herself a bit of a fashionista with a major passion for all things vintage (hence the shop she runs with Ayoub) and/or bright and colorful. An only child raised by her grandmother, Titi's grandma spoils her with all the financial help she could ask for, including with the shop when they have a slow month and need a little help with the rent. Titi met Ayoub in one of their shared classes at their local community college. In addition to her Pistacchio Tiramisu (a recipe she altered from her grandma's traditional tiramisu for her purposes), Titi brought a carafe of her grandma's special espresso and some homemade biscotti that she had Ayoub help her make.

Karla is Titi's therapist. A kind woman, Karla went to school for psychology in the 1990's. During the Vietnamese War, Karla's father escaped draft by becoming a teacher.

For thanksgiving, Karla is making a sweet potato pie with her family.
