Rachel/Chloe/Max, also known as Amberpricefield, is a femslash threesome pairing in the Life is Strange fandom between Rachel Amber, Chloe Price and Max Caulfield.
Canon
Rachel and Max are Chloe’s two canonical romantic interests and best friends. Rachel and Chloe meet as teenagers and dream of running away together, while Chloe and Max are childhood friends who reconnect when they investigate Rachel’s mysterious disappearance. Max and Rachel never meet, although Chloe speculates they would get along due to their shared love of art.
Fandom
Max Caulfield/Chloe Price and Rachel Amber/Chloe Price are the fandom’s most popular pairings; Amberpricefield is the result of fans combining the two. Some fanfics focus mainly on Chloe’s relationship with Max and Rachel, and on her finding happiness with the both of them. However, many fans enjoy exploring the blank space left by Rachel’s absence in the main game; ‘what would Max and Rachel’s interactions be like?’ is a common question upon playing the game, and many fans enjoy reading or writing the answer in Amberpricefield fic.
Common tropes include:
- Everyone Lives, no powers, no storm - Rachel’s death, in canon, prevents Max and Rachel from ever meeting; as such Amberpricefield fics often take place in an AU where Rachel lives. This is frequently accompanied by removing other key elements of the original game’s plot, including Max’s powers, the storm and Mark Jefferson.
- Time travel fix-it - Instead of an AU, fans will alternately allow Max and Rachel to interact by using Max’s time powers. Fics will often have Max create an alternate timeline where Rachel is saved, or will have her interact with Rachel and Chloe in the past before her death.
