We met teaching English in rural Yamagata, Japan; two nerds from California who bonded over superheroes, anime, music, and food. Even in a small prefecture, we made life feel big as we explored tiny towns, took endless road trips, and flew across countries whenever we could. We came home to two bratty babies, Beowulf and Ace, who completely run our lives in the best way. Now it’s us, our little chaos crew, sharing laughs, playlists, and quests every day and always choosing each other in every game.
