Personality: [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] is the first child of [name_u]Tommy[/name_u] and [name_u]Hunter[/name_u]. She is loud and outgoing with a creative mind, enjoying making up her own songs and dances and performing them in wild outfits. She’s quite a drama queen and can be temperamental when the attention is not on her, but she’s so affectionate that it’s hard to stay mad at her for long. She’s also very brave and enjoys climbing trees and riding her bike down hills, which can get her into scrapes sometimes. Although she was jealous when her little brother was born, thinking he took attention away from her, she’s since warmed up to him. She can clash with [name_m]Kaden[/name_m] sometimes due to her bossy nature, but she looks up to him and asks him to draw her pictures of giraffes wearing tutus.
Description: [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] is average size for her age, with shoulder-length dirty blonde hair, blue eyes, and a few freckles. When her parents let her dress herself, she favours colourful, girly clothes, including a lot of sparkles and tutus.

He likes the look of his father’s tattoos, so much that he will often draw on himself with washable Crayola markers in an attempt to have the “cool drawings” on his arms.

family #43, parent #1

name: davis newton alweiss
birthdate: august 24th, 1971 (51)
location :round_pushpin:: bridgeport, connecticut
gender/pronouns: he/him (male)
sexuality: demisexual
personality: davis is a very laissez-faire person, whose ability to handle pressure is legendary amidst his family, and remains a corner-store where his partner and children are concerned. he’s a very approachable man, in spite of seeming aloof to strangers at first glance - never rude, just someone who isn’t putting himself out there - and is dedicated to ensuring his children know they can always confide in and rely on him. working in the environmental sector - specifically conducting research on natural bodies of water - being conscious of pollution and appreciating the natural world are things he’s more openly passionate about; having actually been a noted protester in his youth, something that amuses his colleagues greatly thanks to how easygoing he is. davis can be a little stubborn, especially where his kids well-being is concerned [such as when asher was conceived and he made it clear that, under no circumstances, would his grandson be let down or overlooked] but he’s always wiling to listen, even when it’s obvious his mind has been firmly made up.
description: at 6’0", davis is a stout man, with broad shoulders and large hands, being naturally strong. he has the famed curly alweiss hair, albeit cropped quite short, and a thick beard, to complete his lumberjack qualities [as he jokes with his partner]; his beard being a little lighter shade of brown than his hair. his eyes are hazel and he’s naturally very pale, not tanning in spite of working outdoors; with some freckles on his arms and the bridge of his nose. when not at work, davis prefers long sleeved tees and the comfiest jeans, having no sense of style unless one of his kids insists on stepping in. at least once a day he takes the family dog - irish setter marmalade - out for a long walk near their place, either to clear his head or have a catch up with his partner or one of their three children, depending on if they’re up for a mini hike. davis is also fairly skilled at carpentry, and helped build the crib for asher that’s at the alweiss family home; having been taught this by his own father, and his older brother’s still working in the industry. he admits his extended family aren’t as intertwined as some, but given they’re made up of introverts, he never takes issue and loves his siblings no matter what.

yes this is asher’s maternal family i had to complete the picture :rainbow:

Wait a minute…isn’t it [name_u]Finn[/name_u] who has a child, and not Taylor?? I fixed Finn’s bio so that [name_u]Asher[/name_u] was his son, but I believe it said [name_u]Taylor[/name_u] didn’t have a kid…

Ohh I think it was a misread because of the teen pregnancy thing coming up with [name_u]Taylor[/name_u] as well? So we can proceed with that and I’ll message kkc so they can edit when they’re back on!

Taylor is not a father. He thought he was but it turned out to not be the case.

Welcome to the mind of CherryBomb50. The weird person who likes to throw in fake pregnancy scares with completely unprepared every once in a while and then makes it super relieving when it’s negative. I remember Sawyer being my first.

However if Taylor does end up causing some pregnancy then I wouldn’t care because I have a whole club of (more prepared) characters who didn’t mention a pregnancy in their bio but later turn out to be pregnant/cause a pregnancy later on in someone else’s bio. In fact, sometimes I laugh whenever one of my characters joins this apparent club, but it’s totally welcome and I love the way you wholesome individuals implement these pregnancy plots. I still question how my characters get so fertile, the explanation will never be known. Taylor is quite young though only being 16, although my youngest club member is 17. There is very little prerequisite to which characters get in because it’s so unexpected but males in their 20s/were in their 20s at the time tend to be the vast majority for club members. Sometimes I have tempted these NGL.

Family #43, Parent #2

Name: [name_f]Chantelle[/name_f] ’ [name_u]Shell[/name_u] ’ [name_f]Katrina[/name_f] (Branson) Alweiss
Birthdate: 18th of [name_u]January[/name_u], 1972 (50)
Location :round_pushpin:: Bridgeport, Connecticut
Gender/pronouns: She/her (Female)
Sexuality: Pansexual
Personality: Shell’s a much more outgoing person than her husband, although no-one can blame her, given she grew up as one of 6 kids and needed her voice to be heard. She’s loud in everything she does, but most of all when offering praise, affection and words of affirmation to her loved one’s, being an incredibly devoted mother who runs her dog grooming and walking business from home, in order to be there for her 3 children. For how she can overreact sometimes at the smallest of instances, [name_u]Shell[/name_u] has an excellent temperament for actually serious situations, emphasising when others need space and being the first shoulder to cry on when it’s asked of her.
Description: At 5’5", [name_u]Shell[/name_u] has bottom heavy figure, with wide hips, and is stronger than people assume at first glance, which helps when she’s handling excitable dogs. Her hair’s naturally a sweet strawberry blonde - cut just at her shoulders and with a curtain fringe - but she dyes it a rich burgundy with the help of her sister closest in age, who’s a hairdresser, as the colour compliments her stormy blue eyes perfectly. She dresses in a tomboyish cottagecore style: overalls are her absolute favourite piece of clothing - comfy and practical for work - which she pairs with shawls, lace and embroidered shirts; or otherwise opts for a flowing skirt or patterned trousers, paired up with her favourite vintage walking boots. Shell’s nose is pierced - she usually opts for a simple silver ring - and she’s often mistaken as being younger than she actually is, having a round face, full cheeks and dimpled grin that her child’s made no secret they hope [name_u]Ash[/name_u] inherits.

Family #43, Child #1

Name: [name_u]Kieran[/name_u] [name_u]River[/name_u] Alweiss
Birthdate: [name_u]January[/name_u] 20, 1999 (23)
Location :round_pushpin:: [name_u]New[/name_u] [name_u]Haven[/name_u], Connecticut
Gender/pronouns: They/she (Demigirl)
Sexuality: Bisexual
Personality: [name_u]Kieran[/name_u] is the oldest child of [name_u]Davis[/name_u] and [name_u]Shell[/name_u], the partner of [name_u]Finn[/name_u], and the parent of [name_u]Ash[/name_u]. They are reserved around new people, but very loyal and attentive to their loved ones. Being a computer science student, she has a curious and inventive mind, always thinking of new ways to solve problems. They have a witty sense of humour and can come off as blunt and snarky, as they don’t back down from their opinions. Though she tends to procrastinate and scramble at the last minute to get things done, she doesn’t like asking for help, being fiercely independent. Besides computer science, they enjoy video games, soccer, and karate. She loves her family deeply, never having thought of herself as the parental type until [name_u]Ash[/name_u] was born. Her parents are very supportive of her, and she is close with them.
Description: Unlike their parents, [name_u]Kieran[/name_u] is small and skinny. She has a round, freckled face with hazel eyes and curly brown hair that she usually pulls back into a ponytail. They dress casually and can usually be seen in a large sweater with ripped jeans and beat-up sneakers, as well as sharing their mother’s fondness for overalls.

Family #43, Child #1

Name: [name_u]Logan[/name_u] [name_f]Grace[/name_f] Alweiss
Birthdate: [name_u]September[/name_u] 8, 2004 (Age 18)
Location :round_pushpin:: Bridgeport, Connecticut
Gender/pronouns: She/her (female)
Sexuality: Bisexual
Personality: [name_u]Logan[/name_u] is the second child of [name_u]Davis[/name_u] and [name_u]Shell[/name_u], and the younger sister of [name_u]Kieran[/name_u]. [name_u]Logan[/name_u] was a “happy surprise,” which her parents are open about, but they also let her know that they cherish and adore her, as well as her younger sibling (the youngest). [name_u]Logan[/name_u] attends the same high school as [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] [name_m]Phillips[/name_m], and the two are good friends in school though the pair seldom ever hangs out outside of school. [name_u]Logan[/name_u] does know Daisy’s girlfriend and thinks she’s cool, despite only being acquainted. Logan’s closer friend group is a bit more grungy, and less popular. They often hang out at the skate park downtown, or go get ice cream together, and are like a tight-knit little family. [name_u]Logan[/name_u] loves them dearly and doesn’t know what she’d do without her friends. She also loves her sister, and her beautiful nephew [name_u]Ash[/name_u] who she loves babysitting and taking for “adventures”- e.g. walks in a stroller, and playing in the sun outside the Alweiss’ house.
Description: [name_u]Logan[/name_u] is 5’6” and skinny for her age. Her slender figure paired with her exaggerated facial features make her look like a doll. She’s got significantly less freckles than [name_u]Kieran[/name_u] but she still has a few light dots, and the same light hazel eyes that are much more gold than hazel. Her hair is very light brown and very curly, which she’ll often pull back into a ponytail similarly to her sister. Her style could be described as “laid-back skater girl,” and she’ll often wear graphic tees and hoodies, her favorite one being a black one with a white cartoony skull design on the front. She’s also got some chunky white [name_f]Air[/name_f] Forces, which she likes because they make her look tall. She often carries around her skateboard, which is checkered- she named it [name_f]Luna[/name_f]. [name_u]Logan[/name_u] got [name_f]Luna[/name_f] from her boyfriend. She’d been good friends with him for a while before they started dating- the pair are going steady and often do skate dates together.

family #43, child #3

name: larkin " lace " sophie alweiss
birthdate: october 10th, 2007 (15)
location :round_pushpin:: bridgeport, connecticut
gender/pronouns: she/her (female)
sexuality: bisexual
personality: lace’s the quiet one, which some might say’s a product of being the youngest, but it’s never something she has an issue with. being soft-spoken, easygoing and hard to get a rise out of, typically just getting on with things quietly. she does have kieran’s tendency to operate in a personal form of organised chaos, not really making sense to anyone outside of her own head - never mind her propensity for procrastination - but she just about manages to keep on top of things. in spite of their differences, lace’s extremely close with her mom and values her advice greatly, with shell encouraging her to never feel inferior because she’s not got the loudest voice. sometimes she seems a little spacey, but lace makes up for it with her loyalty and dedication where her bonds are concerned, always having time for her friends, who are the main people to see her wry sense of humour.
description: lace is 5’3" and takes after her mom in figure, having wide hips, but otherwise is of the same slender build as kieran and logan. her eyes are the same dark blue as her mom’s - usually being outlined in white liner, to help pop the colour and stand out - while she shares the rich brown curly hair of her father, which rests at the midpoint of her back, and is usually tied into bunches or plaits. this is to compliment her coquette-academia aesthetic: pastel colours, vintage artwork [deer, cats, cherubs], lace skirts and shorts, babydoll dresses, knit vests, boleros & cropped cardigans, plaid skirts [both mini and midi length] and mary jane shoes. she’s become more experimental with her makeup recently, with gems and bright eyeshadow, and for her sixteenth birthday, her parents have agreed lace can get her septum pierced, something she’s incredibly excited about. you can always find her in her trusty baby blue wellies while walking marmalade about the neighbourhood, and she focuses her polaroid camera experiments around the dog.

name: [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] Pinault
birthdate: [name_u]June[/name_u] 8, 1973 [Age 49]
location :round_pushpin:: Fredericton, [name_u]New[/name_u] Brunswick, [name_f]Canada[/name_f] :canada:
gender/pronouns: he/him [male]
sexuality: pansexual
personality: Dominic’s a very kind and sweet person, albeit a little naive at times. His partner’s much more serious and reserved, and the pair often joke that “opposites attract.” [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] often does lots of romantic things for his partner, like giving gifts, which his kids find cheesy but adorable, as does his partner. He’s also a huge cat person, and has one cat- [name_f]Lilou[/name_f]. Lilou’s a gray cat who’s a little overweight and loves roaming around in Dominic’s backyard, or doing stroller rides. Two of Dominic’s children also have a cat, but [name_f]Lilou[/name_f] is Dominic’s and the two obviously love each other- you’ll often catch [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] cuddling [name_f]Lilou[/name_f] and speaking [name_u]French[/name_u] to her- he’s a proud French-Canadian who’s originally from [name_m]Quebec[/name_m]. He moved out for his job- he’s an architect, and a freelance writer on the side. [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] enjoys being an architect and getting to design homes but feels like his true calling is writing. He’s actually gotten a book published- and on the dedication page are his family’s names. [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] does make a lot of money as an architect, and he’s grateful that he does have that job, but he wants to retire soon and pursue writing as his main focus.
Appearance: Dominic’s pretty tall at 6’3”, and a little heavier for his height and age but definitely not fat- he’s just muscular, which his partner says is nice for cuddles. His hair is cut in a shaggy sort of wolf cut, which he got because his oldest said it would look good, and it’s very dark brown in color (almost black). His eyes are a light shade of seafoam, that is sometimes green and sometimes blue depending on the weather, the lighting, what he wears and his mood. [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] also has his ears pierced (he got it done in his 20s after losing a bet), and often wears black or gold studs. He’s got a tattoo on his left lower back, that’s a picture of his cat [name_f]Lilou[/name_f]. He’s also got his kids’ names inked onto his wrist. [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] usually prefers comfortable clothes around his house such as t-shirts and pajama pants, but he wears suits to work most of the time.

name: Jorge Stefan Martinez-Kellit
birthdate: 3rd of February, 1973 (49)
location :round_pushpin:: Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada :canada:
gender/pronouns: He/him (male)
sexuality: Demisexual
personality: As mentioned, Jorge’s an introvert, who tends to seem a little stern to outsiders. This is well-suited to his job, he’s a university professor in the anthropology department, having an obvious love of learning and education, putting his all in for his students while ensuring they take his classes seriously. He’s always the parent you can turn to if facing or anticipating a crisis, being a pillar of strength for his husband and children, something he takes pride in. Jorge can be prone to hiding his own fears and concerns because of this though, not wanting to worry those he cares about, which is something Dominic’s helped him move away from throughout their relationship, and Jorge always works to ensure their children feel able to be open.
description: Jorge’s an inch smaller than Dominic at 5’2" and a pretty slender guy, although he has broad shoulders and a triangular build, something echoed in his features: having a slightly pointed nose, sharp tipped chin and high cheekbones. He cuts his black hair short and it curls across his forehead, with his sister having taught him how to gel the curls to look nice. His eyes are a deep shade of brown, a little lighter than Dominic’s hair, and compliment the light olive glow of his skin. Jorge tends to dress in an academia style, even when he’s not at work, joking about how his studious nature follows him everywhere. He also has his eyebrow pierced - opting for a ring - which he did consider removing following the birth of the eldest, but his two kids insist he keeps it, and if they’re happy, Jorge certainly is.

Name: [name_f]Perla[/name_f] [name_f]Romane[/name_f] Pinault [name_f]Perl[/name_f]
Birthdate: [name_u]October[/name_u] 30, 2007 (Age 15)
Location📍: Fredericton, [name_u]New[/name_u] Brunswick, [name_f]Canada[/name_f]
Pronouns/Gender: she/her [female]
Sexuality: Lesbian
Personality: [name_f]Perla[/name_f] is a friendly and charismatic extrovert, who’s very well liked. She’s very kind and outgoing, and has many friends in her high school. [name_f]Perla[/name_f] just entered freshman year, and enjoys high school a lot. Her dads are very proud of her for getting good grades and making lots of friends in high school- she’s not necessarily popular, but she has a big group of friends who are all very nice people. [name_f]Perla[/name_f] isn’t very interested in dating, but when she meets the right girl she’d be open to going on a date sometime. [name_f]Perl[/name_f] is a good student, while not the best in her class she manages to get good grades and her parents are very proud of her for that. [name_f]Perla[/name_f] is technically a surrogate child- Jorge’s sister was the egg donor and surrogate mom while [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] is the biological father of [name_f]Perla[/name_f], while her younger sibling was domestically adopted- however this has no impact on the kids’ views of their parents and they still love them and know that they’re their real parents no matter what.
Description: [name_f]Perla[/name_f] is tall for her age at 5’7”, and has a wide, bottom-heavy figure with most of her weight being in her thighs, which she used to be insecure about but now is fine with for the most part. Her hair is long, thick and curly, and black in color- she’ll often tie it into buns, ponytails or braids. [name_f]Perla[/name_f] loves styling her hair in different ways and is considering dying it blonde. Her skin is olive like [name_m]Jorge[/name_m] and his sister’s, but she has Dominic’s seafoam blue-green eyes. [name_f]Perla[/name_f] enjoys wearing lots of chunky jewelry, along with sweaters, leggings and mini skirts. [name_f]Perla[/name_f] has a thick gold choker from [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] that she wears every day. [name_f]Perla[/name_f] and [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] are very close, and [name_f]Perla[/name_f] likes talking to him about everything from school to life to random subjects. [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] taught [name_f]Perl[/name_f] [name_u]French[/name_u] when she was a baby along with [name_f]English[/name_f], which she appreciates because they can speak in code. [name_f]Perl[/name_f] likes playing with [name_f]Lilou[/name_f] and taking her for stroller rides. [name_f]Perl[/name_f] has her own cat, an orange male kitten named [name_u]Jules[/name_u] who she adores.

Family #44, Child #2

Name: [name_f]Viola[/name_f] [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_u]Everly[/name_u] Pinault
Age: 12
Pronouns/Gender: Female, she/her
Sexuality: Uncertain, probably bi with a preference for males
Personality: [name_f]Viola[/name_f] is much more reserved than [name_f]Perla[/name_f], with correspondingly fewer friends, but she has one very close friend, [name_f]Winona[/name_f] Pidgeon, who she’s known since kindergarten and is so close to that [name_m]Jorge[/name_m] and [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] are almost like another set of parents for [name_f]Winona[/name_f], and vice versa. She loves art, and she’ll make a charcoal sketch of almost anything, especially wildlife. Next year, [name_f]Viola[/name_f] and [name_f]Winona[/name_f] want to transfer to a prestigious art-focused boarding school in [name_f]Maple[/name_f] Tree, [name_u]North[/name_u] [name_f]Carolina[/name_f], and although it’ll be harder not having [name_f]Viola[/name_f] around, her dads and sister are excited for her to go. [name_f]Viola[/name_f] spends a lot of her time staring off into space, which sometimes gets her into trouble at school, but while her distant tendencies mean that her grades usually aren’t quite as good as Perla’s, she’s an overall good student, and many teachers have praised her ability to see the world in entirely new ways. [name_f]Viola[/name_f] was
adopted, because her birth mother, named [name_u]Maria[/name_u] Luelle [name_u]Everly[/name_u], was much too young to have a child, but they have some contact. She doesn’t know who her biological father is, and she’s okay with that, because she has two amazing adopted dads. She also has a cat, a black cat with yellow eyes named [name_f]Amelie[/name_f], who is the tiniest, cuddliest cat you will ever meet.
Description: [name_f]Viola[/name_f] is slight and short, with light brown skin and wide blue-violet eyes. Her features are delicate, almost elfish in nature. Her hair is the color of coffee with milk, and she usually wears it in a braid over her shoulder. She wears comfortable clothes in soft colors, and her favorite outfit consists of dark purple leggings with a faint black cat design, a light purple top, a sky-blue knit sweater, and a black cat clip in her hair. She doesn’t usually wear makeup or jewelry, except for the silver leaf-shaped pendant that [name_u]Maria[/name_u] gave her.

[name_f]Maple[/name_f] Tree, [name_u]North[/name_u] [name_f]Carolina[/name_f] is not a real place, it’s where I tend to set stories based in the real world, but it’s very loosely based off of Asheville. Also, her middle name is [name_u]Celeste[/name_u] [name_u]Everly[/name_u] and her last name is Pinault, because [name_m]Dominic[/name_m] and [name_m]Jorge[/name_m] thought that would be easier than a triple-hyphenated last name, and then she would have the same last name as [name_f]Perla[/name_f].

name: Meredith Avani Pidgeon [née Sutton]
birthdate: 12 January, 1973 (50 as of today)
location :round_pushpin:: Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada :canada:
gender/pronouns: She/her (female)
sexuality: Bi with a lean for males
personality: Meredith is a kind and gentle yet headstrong woman, and is the mother of Winona- Winona’s her youngest child. She’s very graceful as well, which she attributes to her profession as an ice skating coach at the rink downtown. She’s been skating since she was two and is extremely good at it, her childhood dream being to play in the Winter Olympics and represent Canada. Unfortunately she did not achieve this dream, but she has become a very good ice skater and LOVES her job. She’s a very caring mother and while she will miss Winona if she ends up going to art school in Maple Tree, North Carolina, she will always support her and visit her once every month. Her and her husband are both “madly in love”, which their older children gently teasing them about this. About a year ago, Meredith made a shocking revelation- she’s attracted to both women and men. Six months ago she told her husband this, and he has supported her completely and let her know that she’s loved and appreciated no matter what, or who she likes. He knows that she loves him, and that’s all that matters to the couple.
Appearance: Meredith is tall at 5’9”, with wide, muscular hips and legs from ice skating and being athletic in general. She’s proudly mixed, and has skin the color of caramel. Her hair is brown, very curly and cascades down her back unless she chooses to pull it up for skating. She’s got hazel green eyes that are catlike and angled slightly upward. She has a long face, high cheekbones and full features, including her lips. She always wears a gold necklace she got from her husband exactly a year ago for her 49th birthday- today she’s turning 50!! She likes wearing heels to accentuate her height and make her look even taller. Apart from caring for her children, Meredith also cares for her mother, who’s witty and outgoing and lives with her and her family. Her dad died when she was ten, and as unfortunate as it is Meredith chooses to honor his memory instead of simply be sad about it and keeps a positive outlook on life.

[name_m]Just[/name_m] so everyone knows, the Pidgeon family is actually something I’ve been working on for a while, so, while feel free to have fun making totally random awesomeness, note that I may use some aspects of the people you create and turn them into different people xD. Canonically, one of the Pidgeon children is [name_f]Valerie[/name_f], but you don’t have to use that name. [name_m]Just[/name_m] thought I’d mention it!

Family #45, parent #2
Name: [name_u]Miles[/name_u] [name_u]Penn[/name_u] Pidgeon
Age: 48
Gender/pronouns: Male, he/him
Sexuality: Straight
Personality: [name_u]Miles[/name_u] can best be described as a ‘goofy geek dad’, which was apt even before he had children. He just gives off dad vibes, right down to his paper-like jokes, which are tear-able. [name_u]Miles[/name_u] is an introvert, a computer whiz, and Meredith’s opposite in many ways–the clumsiness to her grace, the dad jokes to her dry humor, and the background to her wild rides, occasionally chiming in with a “Mare, that might not be such a good–never mind.” He likes to say he works in computers, but moonlights as a computer worker, which is more accurate than he’d like it to be, since he tends to be slightly sleep-deprived most of the time. He loves his wife and kids so, so much, to the point where he’s probably a little embarrassing, but hey, what are dads for?
Appearance: [name_u]Miles[/name_u] is very short, slightly overweight, and has somewhat bad posture due to spending much of his life hunched over various computer screens. [name_u]Meredith[/name_u] keeps trying to get him to exercise more, but he rarely complies. He has pale skin with the occasional freckle, ocean-blue eyes, and a strong face that could be construed as handsome (by [name_u]Meredith[/name_u], at least) and was probably more so when he was younger. His hair is dark and wavy, cut in a sort of swooshy hipster ‘middle-aged man trying to be cool’ style, and receding in such a way that it looks a bit as though he has cat ears. He has a large and bushy beard, which is much grayer than his hair. He usually wears a black or gray button-down shirt, dark jeans, and an outrageous tie, even when the occasion bears no need for a tie.
Extra: [name_u]Miles[/name_u] has a much-younger sister, [name_u]Misha[/name_u] [name_u]River[/name_u] Pidgeon Nair, who has a five-year-old daughter, [name_f]Lilah[/name_f]. (He doesn’t have a brother, although within my story, there was a copious amount of confusion involving Uncle [name_m]Aaron[/name_m] [name_u]York[/name_u] Pidgeon, Miles’s nonexistent brother and a thoroughly existent evil mastermind, actually named Bobert Spatula Cavatappi. There is also no such person as [name_u]Austen[/name_u] [name_m]Santiago[/name_m] Pidgeon, Uncle Aaron’s entirely fabricated son. Apologies all around for this useless and confusing piece of non-information.)

i figured i’d do the grandmother who lives with them just to tie up some loose ends- the next person can feel free to do the eldest child!

family #45, grandparent #1

name: Lucy Evelyn Sutton [née Davies]
birthdate: 8 May, 1943 (Age 79)
location :round_pushpin:: Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada :canada:
gender/pronouns: she/her (female)
sexuality: straight (ally, of course)
personality: Lucy is the quippy, witty grandmother of the Pidgeon family, who lives with them on account of not being able to care for herself to the fullest anymore, and not wanting to be sent to a nursing home as “such a threat to her freedom would kill her spirit.” Lucy can be a bit unorthodox at times, but her chaos comes with its perks- in her youth she used to be an infamous sleuth. Lucy has always been a very astute, inquisitive person and quickly rose from amateur sleuth to legitimate detective- being a woman of color in the 1960s came with its setbacks, but Lucy didn’t care about what anybody else said about her- instead she continued solving cases with ease and even outsmarting experienced criminals. She traveled from Quebec to Vancouver to Toronto and even to the US on some occasions, and once even to Europe. Many experienced detectives disagreed with her rather chaotic method of solving cases but she didn’t care and completely disregarded their complaints. Unfortunately, Lucy had to retire from her detective career because of a back injury and just aging in general. She met her husband through her job- both were clever young detectives tasked with the case of finding a missing diamond from a museum. Eventually they both found it with the security guard, and befriended each other soon after. They married in 1969 and had three daughters soon after, including her youngest daughter Meredith who she now resides with. She’s always got a story to tell to her grandchildren, who she absolutely adores- especially the oldest, who she’s very close with and is her favorite grandkid out of all the grandchildren- including grandkids from her other daughters. When her daughter came out, she was immensely supportive and proud of her for making that decision. She wishes her husband had never died- he was the only man she ever truly loved and while she’s heartbroken, she is glad she got to spend time with him and knows she’ll see him in heaven.
Appearance: Like her daughter, Lucy is tall (though shorter than her) at 5’8”, and not as muscular as her but still slightly muscular in her legs. She’s in remarkably good health for her age, though the key markers of old age are beginning to show up on her face- her once black hair is now gray, and her skin is creased with slight wrinkles. However, shes still sharp as a tack and often states that “youth is a state of mind.” Her skin is chestnut brown with warm undertones, and she has soft, coily dark gray hair that has some silver streaks. Her eyes are wide and dark brown, and she likes to wear t-shirts and comfortable clothing- Lucy has always been a tomboy with an appreciation for softer outfits. However, she does have a jewelry box- she got it for her husband as a clumsy yet sweet Valentine’s Day present (an attempt to flirt with her) and she’s kept it forever, but is planning to give it to Meredith and Miles’ oldest child when she passes away. However, that doesn’t look like it’ll happen too soon, because Lucy’s in great health for her age. Lucy gets on well with Miles, and enjoys his “dad jokes”- she’s glad her daughter married a good person and that the pair has such a wonderful life and family.
