If first impressions are important, then they really hit it off. At SUNY Potsdam, during a rehearsal for their improv comedy group, Sammie walked into a room while everyone was going over stage combat. Cooper was straddling a close friend, punching them in the face. They then went on to do several comedy shows together, and their friendship grew stronger. Everything started picking up when Sammie joined the Dungeons & Dragons group. An in-game romance turned into a real-life one. Months together turned to years. Silly antics, funny jokes, and hard days came and went. Cooper took an arrow to the knee at the couple's favorite renfair, and now we are here.
