Taissa and Simone

For the most part, the adult counterparts of the main characters share the same traumatic backstory. So, Taissa and Simone are a fun deviation from the normal dynamic.

Simone had only met Taissa after she had returned from the Wilderness. She never knew who Taissa had been previously, and due to Taissa's dedication to avoiding addressing the trauma she underwent in 1996, Simone never truly knew who Taissa was as an adult either.

Simone is drastically underprepared for Taissa's second identity and the dangers she brings with her, such as killing the family dog and holding a ritual sacrifice collection in their basement. As Taissa pushes her wife away, desperate not to hurt her or their son, Simone begs Taissa to get help or let go of her political dreams that are causing her so much stress.

The last time Simone is seen on screen is when she is in the hospital after a car accident while Taissa and Simone are still on bad terms. However, depending on how things go, they still may have more to do with each other because of their son, Sammy.
