## Description

In 2035 — a year after the Catastrophe — Zayne's family and MC's grandmother Josephine are formally introduced through a grandmother's social circle. From these shared family dinners, Zayne, MC, and Caleb become childhood friends. The connection runs: Zayne's family + MC's grandmother's circle = friendship with MC and Caleb. It is this trio dynamic that sets the emotional stakes for every arc involving any of the three. Zayne does not yet know what his career will become; he simply knows them from dinners.
