**Terry Brook** is a character in Our Life: Beginnings & Always. He first appears in Step 3.

## Appearance

He has amber eyes, brown hair and brown skin.

During Step 3, his hair is in a bun. He wears a patterned overalls and a white undershirt. He also wears a black wetsuit with pink sleeves during "*Hang*".

During Step 4, he wears a extra-long length white T-shirt, with palm trees and the ocean emblazoned on the front, along with short blue shorts.

## Personality

Terry is an outgoing and sociable person. He loves interacting with other people even if they are not someone he is close with yet like how he immediately started conversing with Baxter in "*Hang*". He also manages to be friends with the main character, regardless if they are close with Cove or not. He has a tendency to be loud at times, startling Baxter on several occasions though this is often harmless.

He also had a knack for making and arranging schedules. When Cove returned to Sunset Bird for the first time in Step 3, he asked Cove's schedule presumably to see if they have coinciding free time and to plan hangout sessions in advance. It is also shown that he can get overwhelmed when things do not go as planned, as mentioned in "*Talks*" when he ends up staying late in Miranda's house and is unable to answer her questions properly. He stated that when he made the mistake of not being aware of the time, he wanted to deal with it by himself. Nonetheless, he is still open for impromptu hangout sessions like the squad's visit to the park and fireworks viewing during "*Hang*" as well as being able to go when he was invited to the beach by the end of Step 3.

He is also described at the transition scene between Step 2 and 3 as someone who is obsessed with the ocean, something both he and Cove have in common.

## Background

During the events between Step 2 and Step 3, it was stated that Terry visited Sunset Bird during his second year of high school. The main character describes where he lives as a "decent-sized city" in "*Hang*", relatively larger than the town of Sunset Bird.

## Relationships

### Miranda

Miranda is Terry's best friend and they're often shown in the game together. Miranda and Terry don't have many fights, but in "*Talks*" it was discovered that the two have a misunderstanding of Terry's need to get home and Miranda's constant bombarding of questions made tensions high. Terry affectionately calls Miranda, "Randy Mandy". He knew Miranda longer than Cove and the main character, but that stopped neither of them in forming their own small friend circle.

In Step 4, Miranda becomes his girlfriend.

### Cove

Cove and Terry first met in between Step 2 and 3 and became friends with each other due their mutual love for the ocean. It is shown how comfortable Terry is with Cove by the way he envelopes him in a bone-crushing hug. He was glad to befriend the main character as well, knowing that someone close to Cove had to be good company. With Miranda, Cove, and the main character, the four of them were able to create a small friend circle.

Cove may be fond of the antics that Terry and Miranda do together, as seen in "*Hang*" where Miranda continues to bury him in the sand as Cove and the main character tag along in helping with the sand tomb. Although he does not feel comfortable with Baxter during "*Hang*", Cove will still hang out with Terry unless the main character gives him an excuse to go back with him to their neighborhood. Cove is also shown to be afraid of the duo's friendship to fall apart, as shown in "*Talks*" where he and the main character have heard from Miranda that she had a misunderstanding with Terry. He showed concerned for Terry by texting him to know what happened between the two of them. He becomes agitated when Terry does not immediately respond and would constantly check his phone to see if he contacted him back. While waiting, Cove would try to think of how he and the main character can help Terry and Miranda make up.

### Main Character

The main character met Terry through Cove, and was pleased to consider him as a friend as it was mentioned that they were considered as good company by him since they were close with Cove. With Miranda, Cove, and the main character, the four of them were able to create a small friend circle.

The player generally enjoys his presence along with Miranda's, seeing as that they're the closest within the group. They can also show their worry towards the duo's friendship being tainted due to a misunderstanding that happened in between them during "*Talks*", along with the main character and Cove thinking of ways to help Terry and Miranda sort things out.

## Trivia

* Terry is the first transgender character introduced by Our Life. He identified as female in Step 3 and has transitioned by Step 4.
* His Step 3 and 4 voice actor is NiKo Vargas.
* The main character can have a unique awkward turkey greeting with him. Putting numerous toppings when ordering a crepe during *Hang* in Step 3 will make Terry go for a high-five which the main character has the option of meeting with a fist-bump. He will remember this in Step 4.
* Based on him being 18 when Step 3 took place in the summer of 2016, it can be surmised he was born in late 1997 or early 1998.
