Marriage

Kennedy is married. This came as a surprise to many of the Crabs, who did not even realize that he was married to the person he kept bringing over to their gatherings, until the very day of ascension when he brought up in conversation, "I am going to miss my husband."

Territory Loser. Terry is not a person, but rather a place; a demesne that spans roughly the area of Highlandtown and Patterson Park. It is unconfirmed if Terry is a spirit who haunts the expanse of a Baltimore neighborhood rather than passing on, or if they are a manifestation of the neighborhood's gestalt. They take on many shapes, whether they show themselves a figure elfin and moonlit, a rowhouse that wasn't there before, or a gentle half-drowned song wafting from a pothole. But wherever they may show themselves, they are everywhere in the neighborhood, they are the neighborhood.

Terry emerged sometime in the vacuum of influence that followed the Olde One's death, where she'd have likely squashed any emerging being encroaching on the greater Chesapeake domain. Kennedy was sent in to check in on the neighborhood and ensure that Terry's presence and influence continued on the terms of the people living there, rather than the other way around, and helped establish means of communication between the neighborhood and the neighborhood, and established the usual checks and balances put in place within the city. He would regularly perform check-ins on the neighborhood, and walked with Terry through the wooded parts of the park for a long time discussing how to best ensure that things are copacetic and everyone, Terry included, is cared for.

Over time, those walks got longer, and once things were settled down in Highlandtown, the walks continued. It seemed like one thing led to another.
