Hello guys, gals, nonbinary pals, and every other lovely person in this community! The time has come once again for pride challenge, now in a time where we need pride in our LGBTQIA+ communities more than ever.
Rules
This challenge is for LGBTQ+ ocs only… hence why it’s called the pride challenge.

DON’T steal edits. If you feel your edit or someone else’s has been stolen, report it to our submission box by following these guidelines.
If you want to make a crossover edit with somebody else’s oc, make sure the other person is okay with crossovers.

I am here for the lore behind Tanner and Kelsey *folds hands and sits down*
There isn't really much to say that hasn't been talked about when I talked about Tanner! Basically, Kelsey thinks he's pathetic for abandoning medicine for acting, thinks he couldn't "handle the pressure" because that's what people who knew him as a doctor have always said. And she hates that because her father did it, people assume she will one day give up on being a doctor and become an actress.
The reason Tanner isn't really a good dad though is because he wasn't totally around and invested, often very preoccupied and dedicated to "The Oath," and sometimes he would even try to solve problems by thinking "what would Dr. Stoddard do?" and even quoting the show sometimes when he felt something was relevant. He and her mother also made her do some acting as a child.
