here for the B's

kk harvey. i feel like if you're reading this, you don't really need me to explain who kk is nor what her relationship to laila is, because you already know that they are Brothers, who are girls, but of course also "bestfriends" who [infinity emoji] [heart emoji] [interracial handshake emoji] each other.

is she normal about laila? obviously not.

chloe baker. chloe was the university of wisconsin's third-string goaltender for the same four years that laila was there. she and laila and kk are really close friends. because she was clearly never pursuing hockey professionally, she had a more normal life at wisco than many of her her teammates, and she made a lot of non-athlete friends, including one who would eventually become laila's girlfriend.

is she normal about laila? no, not even a little bit. i think she's straight but she and laila had something extremely weird and gay and fake-flirty going on for a minute there. they made a heated rivalry reenactment tiktok and laila used to carry chloe all the time and then she posted a video of laila picking her up captioned "who needs a boy when i have laila" and the thigh grab.

chloe's best friend clara, who is now laila's girlfriend, knew laila casually through chloe for a while. based on insta, they seem to have gotten closer or started dating during or right after they both went on chloe's birthday trip to chicago last summer. kk either wasn't invited or didn't come on the trip. there's something very compelling about everything changing when kk wasn't there, and there's something very compelling about laila wrapping up her dumb fake gay bullshit with chloe to actually date her best friend instead, and there's something very compelling about that one tiktok live where laila and chloe are whispering to each other in the backseat of kk's car and kk is pretending to joke about being excluded but is actually clearly for real upset at being left out. what is laila doing with these three!!

clara. laila's gf, chloe's best friend, and bandit edwards-harvey the cat's stepmommy. she does not play hockey and met chloe in class (they share a major). she went to to olympics to support laila.

is she normal about laila? no, but she's not normal in a normal way, because she is dating laila. she is perhaps the only one who is allowed to act the way she does.

kirsten simms. laila's long-time teammate who went to boarding school with her (and kk), and then also played on the badgers for all four years with her and the olympics in 2026 with her. she will play in the PWHL next year. i am also legally obligated to report that she is the most clutch player of all time and has a very hot girlfriend.

is she normal about laila? yes, she loves laila down but is probably more or less the most normal of laila's blondes, using phrases such as "like a sister to me" instead of "brooooooo [gif of a fox doing the scuba] you're pretty good at hockey ig." laila has repaid simms for these many years of sisterly love and support by sometimes posting pics of herself and kk to insta with simms cropped out.
