Meet the Wedding Party
Bridesmaids
Kathy LaTourrette:
Maid of Honor, Virology Genius and Acclaimed Published Scientist.
Kathy and Amanda met in College, and were inseparable until college ended and they had to move to different states. The only roommate Amanda ever liked, their nights were filled with gossip, studying, cheap wine, and worse horror movies. Nowadays, Kathy is getting her PhD in Plant Virology, which means that she teeters on the edge of saving humanity or destroying it by releasing the Secret Zombie Plant Virus she's been sworn to keep contained. Her days and nights are filled with the unending battle between man and plant. The mutations of the earth are rapid, and each day it becomes clearer that nature is the everlasting, and one day it will reclaim what humanity has stolen. But that day will not come while Kathy lives and breathes. Luckily, a bargain was struck and Kathy was able to take a few days off to attend the wedding.
Elena Asofsky:
Middle Sister, Artist Extraordinaire, and Chaos Embodied.
Be not fooled by Elena's smaller stature, for in her tiny frame she contains the capabilities of 10+ men. The world is blessed that she is benevolent, otherwise it would be trembling beneath her hand. Amanda's first memory is of Elena--specifically hearing that she would be going to the hospital to meet her new baby sister. The earth shuddered that day, for this was the first time in eons it had birthed a creature so passionate and tenacious. Warriors of Old turned in their graves, relieved that they died before her birth and would not have to face her on the battlefield. The devil himself prays she lives a long life to delay their meeting. Her fierceness is outshined by only one thing; her generosity and openness with those she loves.
Sarah Asofsky:
Youngest Sister, Cottagecore Incarnate, Meek Yet Mighty.
It is a tough lot to have in life, growing up in Amanda and Elena's shadow. Even Amanda and Elena themselves made the mistake of thinking nothing in their wake could match them. Enter Sarah. The youngest. The underdog. The one with the most allergies. She burst forth, unashamed of her Warrior Cats fanimations and anthropomorphic OC's. From her sisters' footsteps she followed, and now has carved her own path as someone fascinated by science, capable of making her own (incredible) clothing and cosplays, and being able to sing operatically. She has a strong voice and a stronger creative hand. Where is she now? Attending college, picking a major, and exploring her passions. Where will she be in 5 years? Only time will tell.
Amilia St John:
Cousin and Cousin To-Be, Greatest Graphic Novelist, and Monster Slayer.
When Amanda first met Amilia, she knew that this was the woman she wanted to spend the rest of her life with. But she was already dating (and in love with) Zack, so she has to settle for just having Amilia as a beloved family member. Amilia is a true Renaissance woman, versed in the arts of programming, prose, drawing, and breaking hearts. All of these skills combine to make the perfect chaotic energy to slaying monsters. When Amilia isn't busy hunting down and destroying the most vile beasts in the universe, she can be found being the funniest person alive and making viral tik toks about Digimon.
LCI Iarroci:
Unmatched Game Designer, Home Owner, and Sonic Enthusiast
Amanda and LCI met at their first mutual Big Girl Job in the games industry. Together they faced trials of late nights, weird deadlines, and weirder game pitches. Though their jobs have diverged, they remain close by sending each other as much cursed content as they can on a regular basis. It's a fight that LCI is winning. By a lot.
As if changing the landscape of gaming wasn't enough, LCI is also mother to one cat, Meg. She is raising Meg to be a true connoisseur of culture, indulging in only the finest animes. In LCI's spare time, she enjoys repainting dolls, reading Sonic comics, and making her own plum wine.
Groomsmen
William Shook
He's everything anyone would want in one tightly packed muscular packaged. And he's single. Ladies...? 😏
Elijah Fernandez
If Zack is an interdimensional chaos-being sent here to study our universe, then Elijah is the being that opened the door. Like mixing peanut butter and tequila, there's no telling what amazing and horrific concoctions will be revealed when they're left alone together.
Jon Kershner
Zack has never known a more genuine man. During the cold winter nights, when the wind howled and the clouds blocked out any stars in the sky, Zack could find warmth and light in Jons barber chair. Through his gentle but firm hands, Zack felt his hair be molded into a reliable and professional cut. Every. Time. They could talk about anything. Barbeque. Politics. Dark Souls. It was in that chair that Zack realized Jon wasn't just shaping his hair--he was shaping his soul into that of a better man.
Dylan St. John
He's here.
Wallace Brown
Wallace was Zacks roommate in Baltimore. They are very close, sharing a bond over bad movies and good rap.
Mother and Father of the Bride
Emily Asofsky
Mother. Gardener. Educator. Dog Lover.
David Asofsky
Father. Architect. Leader of Men.
