Fanon:Tiffany Curious

Tiffany Curious (née Riley) was the wife of Joshua Curious and mother of Vin and Harper Curious.

Before joining the family
Tiffany does not like to talk much about her family. It is not sure what happened, but it is clear that she is not in touch with her parents or potential siblings anymore. She met Camryn McGaw in high school and considers her her first real friend. Tiffany would often convince Camryn to skip class and spend time with her in the park. She disliked school as she didn't feel like she was particularly good at it and enjoyed gossiping with Camryn as well as checking out the other boys that were skipping school as well. Whenever Tiffany would find a cute boy that wanted to talk to her, she bought Camryn a grilled cheese sandwich to keep her occupied, while they would make out behind some public bathroom stall, tree or rock.

It was one time when Tiffany came back, she saw that Camryn had struck up a conversation with Lucas Curious. She thought he was incredibly cute and when he had left she asked Camryn if she could introduce him sometime. Camryn was uncomfortable at first but after persisting she agreed to ask next time she would see him. As it turned out, Lucas had a twin brother named Joshua, who looked exactly like Lucas. When she noticed that Joshua was not easily tempted to come meet her behind a rock or a tree, she became even more interested and invested all her time to make Joshua hers. The four hang out a lot, and Tiffany starts to enjoy the Curious twins as friends as well, something she hadn't experienced with men before.

When Joshua and Lucas tell Tiffany and Camryn about their college plans and in return ask about theirs, Tiffany laughs at first. She has no interest in high school, let alone college. She sees that Camryn is a lot more hesitant and when the two are alone together Camryn tells her that she would like to go to college. This would also mean that they can't escape to the park during school hours anymore and should step up their game at school. Although Tiffany still doesn't really care for university, she sees how important this is for Camryn and agrees to help her out, but doesn't promise anything for herself. It is only when she applies for La Fiesta Tech and gets in, she starts to consider going. When she finds out about the different sororities and many parties she is sold.

Young Adulthood
Arriving at La Fiesta Tech, Tiffany is excited to find out where the good parties are. She moves into a dormitory together with Camryn, Joshua and Lucas and is undecided on her major. It is only after a while that she chooses drama, as that seems the most fun to her. Although Camryn and Lucas seem to be growing closer towards each other, Tiffany is oblivious of the crush that Joshua has on her. Like she planned to do, Tiffany went to this sorority party where she met Abhijeet Cho and took things a little further than making out behind a tree.

Having tasted the fruits, Tiffany spends most of her time at social gatherings, parties or get togethers, while Joshua tries his best to keep up with her and pass all his tests as well. She's doing the bare minimum for school and only does as much to make sure she doesn't get kicked out. After parting ways with Abhijeet, she dated Armando Parker for a while during her freshman year and Armando Sicat and Grant Downie at the same time during her sophomore year. It is only when Camryn starts to gush about her engagement to Lucas and her joking that she should start date Joshua so the two can be sister-in-laws that Tiffany realizes she perhaps has been playing around a little too much. She looked deep inside herself and with a little help, she came to the conclusion that she would rather have lots of friends than lots of romance. In her junior year she decides to focus on Joshua, and see if she has any romantic feelings for him. The two become great friends and incredibly close and started dating.

Somehow Tiffany manages it to graduate, although she is the only one of the four to do so without any honors. After graduation Joshua proposes to her and at first she is too surprised to even answer, as they had never discussed marriage before. Hearing Camryn in the back of her mind mention them becoming sisters-in-law, and not really sure what else she would be doing with her life otherwise, she says yes.

Adulthood
Back in Strangetown, Tiffany moves in with Joshua and his family. Not completely happy living in a full house of children and elders, she insist that they find a place on their own, rather sooner than later. When Joshua asks her how they are planning on paying for all that, she suggest that Camryn and Lucas move with them, so they can split the costs. Joshua agrees and he asks his brother how he would feel about this. Lucas and Camryn think that this is a great idea and move all together to 4 Cover Up Road, a small but lovely home next to where the original Curious household lives.

Once settled into their new homes, and all the other members quickly getting jobs in the fields they studied for, Tiffany is hesitant on starting a job and actually prefers to stay home. When Joshua explains to her that financially they can't really afford for her to stay home right now, she protest but finally gives in as she doesn't want to get in trouble with Camryn and Lucas. She gets a job in politics and it seems that her drama major is coming in handy as she is doing quite well. Not really wanting to climb up the ladder so fast, she is often not given a chance as people just assume she wants to do all these things. It is when Camryn announces her pregnancy, that his might be a (temporarily) way out for Tiffany as well. She talks to Joshua about her desire for a little one herself and they start trying.

It doesn't take long for Tiffany to become pregnant as well, and while glowing -because of her successful plan, not the pregnancy- she enjoys her time wasted at home. It is only when Camryn gives birth to her daughter Deena Curious, that Tiffany realizes her plan had one flaw; she would have to actually give birth to this baby! When her due date starts coming closer and the freshly well-meaning mother Camryn starts quizzing her on different baby trivia, Tiffany is close to losing it and politely but firmly tells Camryn that she has it handled and does not need to help her for now. Many painful hours during delivery later, a baby boy named Vin Curious is born.

Although she is very attached to Vin, she doesn't mind the fact that Camryn loves to take the cousins and let them play together, so that Tiffany can rest or not be involved with any kid-stuff. Surprisingly she is excited to go to work again and even seems to be doing her best on purpose. As part of one of the campaigns she is involved in, she gets to travel to neighboring towns close to Strangetown, where she runs into old flame Abhijeet Cho. They chat and laugh about their past in La Fiesta Tech. Abhijeet also voices his surprise when he learns that Tiffany is married with a son, as he would have never pictured her a family type of Sim. Tiffany laughs at him and agrees, but tells him that somehow something has changed within her. The two end up meeting at the hotel bar after work, have a little too much to drink and somehow end up practicing old habits with each other. The next day Tiffany wakes up and realizes what she has done. Devastated she tells Abhijeet that all of this was a mistake and he should never contact her again.

Back in Strangetown, she tells her work that she does not want to travel ever again, but gives as an excuse that she does not want to be too far away from her son Vin. She thinks long and hard if she needs to tell Joshua about her little misstep, but decides not to do it as she does not want to lose him. Things get even worse when Tiffany finds out that she is pregnant again, with a high probability that the child could be Abhijeet. Again Tiffany thinks long and hard, looking back at her timeline and thinks that it possibly also could be Joshua's. She decides to take the gamble and announces her pregnancy with the confidence that it is Joshua's.

As Tiffany is growing bigger, she teaches Vin how to use the potty while Joshua teaches him his other toddler skills. As the due date gets closer, Tiffany grows more and more nervous and agitated, while Joshua keeps expressing his excitement for their second child. When Tiffany survives another very painful birth, she is excited to meet Harper Curious, a gray-eyed, blond baby girl. Looking a lot like herself, Tiffany is sure that the baby must be Joshua's. It is only when Camryn takes her aside and asks her if there is something she should tell her. Tiffany, stressed and tired snaps at her and asks her what in the heck she means and that she should keep her accusations to herself.

As both her children grow older, Tiffany keeps anxiously compare the two to see if they could pass for siblings, or if perhaps other people would think the same like Camryn. Although she still lives with Camryn and Lucas, she ignores them most of the time. Whenever Joshua asks her what is wrong and why she is acting this way, she always gives vague answers and tells him that Camryn has given her some parental advice she thought was incredibly unjust. When Joshua suggests to get the two into private school she agrees. Around this time she also fulfills her Lifetime want as she -again somehow- becomes the major of Strangetown. She hears through the grapevine that Abhijeet has retired, which calms her a bit in the hopes that she would never have to see him again.

Elderhood
As Tiffany got older and her children started to blossom into adults themselves, she realized that she might have been selfish keeping the possibility of Harper being the daughter of Abhijeet a secret. Tiffany contemplates if she should talk to Harper about it, before things are too late or contact Abhijeet to see if he would be willing to meet his daughter. She decides to write him an email explaining it all, hoping that this will give him and herself some time to react before taking next steps. In her horror she meets Abhijeet on her doorstep the next day, with Harper just coming back from school. Tiffany seeing how much the two are alike realizes she made a big mistake and tells Abhijeet that he needs to go and if he ever comes back she will call the police. Abhijeet just stares Harper down, while she stares back at him as he leaves the house quietly. When Harper asks about the situation Tiffany tells her that he was just an old flame that can't let go of her.

Tiffany decides to retire, and tries to focus on her son Vin and daughter-in-law Jessica Grunt's marriage. She has a hard time not fearing that Abhijeet will show up somewhere again and even though she tries to enjoy her last few years with Joshua, she is always torn between guilt and fear. It seems like the birth of her grandson Sander Curious and her son Vin becoming a father might have helped her get rid of some guilt, but this was quickly overthrown with the death of her husband Joshua. Fate had decided for her and her loving, amazingly supporting husband would never know that Harper isn't his daughter.

It is only on her death bed that Tiffany confesses to truth to Harper. Harper does not take the news well and leaves, refusing to come back and talk to Tiffany. Although Camryn is there and tries to support her in her final days, she can feel the joy Camryn has inside of her because she was right. Tiffany cries herself into her death.
