Mrs. Graves/Relationships
Family[edit]
Mr. Graves[edit]
Her lover and husband. According to Mr. Graves, through Andrew's memories, Mrs. Graves is supportive of him and even comforting. They are sexually active and seems to prefer a quiet lifestyle away from their children.
Andrew Graves[edit]
Her eldest child and only son. Mrs. Graves acknowledges that she was wrong to put Andrew up to the task of caring for Ashley primarily. She also believes that Andrew is either blackmailed or 'brainwashed' by Ashley for him to be such a pushover for his sister. In contrast to her opinion of Ashley, Mrs. Graves is considerate of Andrew as she offers to house him and help him find a job despite previously insisting he and Ashley should learn to be independent.
If Andrew declines her offer, Mrs. Graves is stumped as to what motivates her son to be a pushover despite being literally separated from Ashley at that moment. She also explicitly says that she 'should have known' that her children were in an incestuous relationship as she believes this is the only way Andrew would freely choose to stay by Ashley's side.
Ashley Graves[edit]
Her youngest child and only daughter. Mrs. Graves acknowledges that she should not have neglected Ashley so that Andrew could raise her daughter in her stead. Although she has historically been neglectful of Ashley, the relationship between mother and daughter strained after Nina's death. She suspected that not only did Ashley kill Nina, but Ashley must have forced Andrew to be her accomplice.
Despite this, she allegedly loved Ashley enough not to report either child to local authorities as she was worried what would happen if they were taken in and imprisoned. This love did not extend to refusing Ashley's calls and being terse with her daughter upon their reunion in Episode 2.
