Clementine and Fletcher have a lovely childhood, and Hank has a secret

I got so many cute family pics when both the kids were toddlers.

You will notice that Beckett is reading Clementine a book, rather than teaching her to talk or walk. That's because they've taught her everything! Yay. Even potty training was taken care of, and I think she was read two books, possibly on art or something. So she was all ready to age up successfully.

Get your ass out of the way Henri

No that's not better

Tim just saw these and was like, is that guy farting?

Clemmie rolled the Athletic trait, which gives her life some direction. Always good. I checked her out in CAS and discovered she has inherited her grandmother's nose.

That nose will be the bane of my legacy

Apart from that she's a pretty cute kid though. 

For her birthday Henri threw a party, which was supposed to be a pool party but then the weather did this:

It's like Moonlight Falls is actually New Zealand

So everyone just hung out wearing togs inside instead. Beckett gave Clemmie the camera that Mike gave him when he aged up to a child, which was quite sweet. 

I have even more cute pictures of Clementine and Fletcher together now.

ARGH IT'S SO CUTE  I WANNA STAB MY EYES OUT

Fletcher aged up a couple of days after Clementine, by which time they were BEST FRIENDS from all the peek a boo. You only have to play it for ten minutes and the relationship bar is maxed out. I wish that worked in real life, I'd have so many friends.

Cool overalls

Now the kids are the same age again, and they look SO ALIKE that they might as well be twins. Fletcher has also inherited Alice's nose, and pretty much looks exactly like Clemmie with short hair.

The gene pool, it is small

Eveline's old room is now Clementine's room, and Fletcher is sleeping in Mike and Alice's bedroom. Beckett has taken their urns out so they don't scare Fletcher with their ghosts, and when they get a chance the whole family is going to go to the cemetery and bury them properly. 

Clementine and Fletcher are having an excellent childhood. I've bought them some playground equipment, and since it's still summer they've been swimming in the pool. It looks fun.

Playing blocks like when they were toddlers aww

I've been so focused on the kids I may have been neglecting the adults just a little. Mostly they've just been going to work, sleeping and gardening. That garden takes A LOT of work! I really need that tractor thingy, but I can't be bothered downloading it. Anyway. Both Beckett and Eveline aged up, and they are both having midlife crises. They want a car worth $10,000 and Beckett wants facial hair.

God, look at those wrinkles. You're getting so old.

Henri is not having a midlife crisis, but his relationship drama continues. Since Hank's cruel rejection, their romance cooled somewhat, dwindling into the occasional phone call and promise to hang out. But Henri couldn't seem to forget Hank, so he decided to give him one more chance at meet him at the festival grounds again.

The same place his heart was crushed into little pieces last time. So dramatic.

The date went well, so well in fact that Henri rushed right back in and asked Hank to go steady again. Hank's reaction was...the same as last time.

Only ten years of dating and you want a commitment. So. Needy.

He left, and Henri was heartbroken. But god damn if that man is not persistent, because the very next evening he invited Hank over and continued his quest for true love. And that's when he discovered the secret Hank has been hiding from him all this time...

THIS IS WHY I CAN'T LET YOU LOVE ME

Hank is a werewolf. The full moon exposed him and his commitment issues for what they really are. After all, it's hard to maintain a relationship with a human when your love turns into bestiality once a month. But either Henri's love is so pure it transcends such trifles, or he secretly has a thing for dogs, because he wasn't bothered at all.

Your body hair may block our drains, but never our happiness!

Hank was so overcome by this unconditional acceptance that he committed to Henri straight away, and agreed to move in with the family and become their pet dog.

In the heat of the moment I had them try for a baby and lo and behold IT WORKED.

How? Who - THERE IS NO UTERUS

I have no idea how this pregnancy is going to carry out. Or how the child will come out. But I am thrilled that two men can conceive on their own, even when one is a werewolf, as now there will NO restrictions on who any of my heirs fall in love with. They are totally free! Also I can't wait to see if this baby will be a werewolf. Werewolf baby! I've never had one before.
