You hated visiting New York City.

You had a new life, away from your family in California, living it up in Los Angeles. Going home was the last thing you wanted to do.

But, it was your father, Logan Roy’s birthday, and your older brother Kendall’s apparent Coronation Day, where he would be moving up the corporate ladder and taking your father’s position at Waystar RoyCo.

You’re escorted up the elevator by some security guards, stepping into your father’s new apartment.

Kendall is on the phone, as usual, ignoring his ex-wife and his two kids. Your father’s new wife Marcia is running around handling the last minute touches. Your eldest brother Connor is there with his girlfriend, Willa, your other older brother Roman is sprawled on the sofa on his phone, while your older sister Siobhan is talking to her husband Tom, a frown on her face. Your cousin, Greg Hirsch, is standing awkwardly in the corner, trying to make conversation.

You hated being back home.
