The Chosen Family

When River was in high school, they yearned for other queer teens to connect with and befriend, so they took to the Internet. There, on a little LGBTQ chat room, they met Georgie, and the rest is history. Once River landed in London the year after, they met the other two and the four became fast friends, each other's chosen family.

 * Due to her lifestyle in high school, Rhona developed a drinking problem which cost her her high school sweetheart. Once she moved to London, she decided to sober up and has since been attending a group to help her keep on the straight and narrow.
