Fanon:The Genesis Project/Chapter 6

Falling into a Different Habit
I don't know when I will have my next (first?) birthday, but I can really feel myself slowing down. I know that I am only 26 days old. Or am I? In any case, I have decided that it would be best to have each household write a quarterly report, which I can then place into one larger report. It will also be good to have some of their thoughts, not just mine. I promise that I won't edit their writings.

The Harper Household
So I will go ahead am report about what has happened with my household. I told you that last quarter I would set up a Real Estate. I have done that and sold lots to everyone. We now have some businesses that will serve to expand and grow the community for many years to come.

My painting has also gotten better. I am quite please with myself. David has be taking lessons from me. Not as good as me yet, but he is getting there quite fast. He has also been learning some of the trades of the business from me as well. Jim, however, is a different story. He will paint sometimes, but he seems more content to freestyle than anything else. Getting him to learn a few trade secretes is a different story. Maybe David can pass them along to him later.

Oh, I forgot to mention that Jim is now a teen. Kind of explains why he is so rebellious, don't it? I don't remember David being that way, but it might have been because he wasn't able to due to having no older sibling. Speaking of, David is now a young adult. Soon he will be starting his own family. I'm actually looking forward to seeing the Harper Family grow.

The Carpenter Household
I see that Tyler didn't tell you that he caught Kyle and Mike being a little friendly while at the new recreational center. It's actually quite a common occurrence to see something like that around here. I honestly don't know why Tyler got so upset. I mean, he has done the same thing as well. I somehow think there was something else going on because we all know everyone has had children with almost everyone else because we all agreed to do so. It's almost as if Tyler was mad about something else, but I can't quite place my finger on it.

In any case, I'm sure that you guessed that the community lot that I got from Tyler was built, or rather is building, into a fitness center. It isn't much right now with only a small pool, a diving board, and a couple of weight machines, but I know that since I have taught my boys the trade secrets that it will be around for a long while. I know that the first thing I'm going to have to do is build some shelter if I'm going to have it running during the winter. If we don't have a bad one, that is, because I doubt anyone is going to want to walk in a blizzard to get anywhere. Much less a fitness center.

And speaking of the boys, both Alex and Drew have grown up to be young adults at 19 days old. Seems like only yesterday that I held them in my arms. I know that they're growing up because Alex had his first kiss with Lance, and Drew had his with Nick a couple days later. It might just be that biological clock ticking, but I have a feeling that this community that we have built will continue to grow into a good one after we are gone. Well, no one honestly knows how long we will be around, or even if we will always be around forever. You never know though, so I'm just saying.

The Fisher Household
As you saw from Sean's report, Nick and Drew had their first kiss with each other. It's so hard to believe that they are growing up. I still see them in their little diapers; the stinky little turds. I'm honestly glad they are out of that now. I can focus on my fishing.

I guess that you can tell that I have been doing well with the fish market. (Of course there are some who think I am doing too well and need to be played like a villain in Robin Hood. Water under the bridge.) Nick has been helping me a lot as well. I have decided that I will expand the fishing industry by building up a meat market. I have also been teaching Nick everything I know, since you never know when he will have to take over for me.

If you can't tell, I am very proud of my son. Not only was he quick on his feet when someone was stealing my stuff — water under the bridge — he is also growing up to be quite the young man like his. I admit, I don't like the long hair and facial hair, but it works for him. I guess I'll just have to live with it.

The Baker Household
We sure do have a colorful little community, don't we? I think that is what makes it so great, such diversity. I mean I wouldn't be able to make the food that I do without everyone's input. Those basses and trouts make for some really good meals, and so do the produces that Mike grows.

Just when you think that the community couldn't get any better, it is growing. Connor is now a young adult, and Zack is a teen. Connor has been such a help with the business that I have opened up a bakery. It isn't much now with a few meals for sell, a couple of tables and chairs, a podium, and a stove for the beginnings of a restaurant, but it will eventually become the dining center of this community.

I have also been teaching the boys the trades that I have learned in the few days that I have been running a business. Hopefully when the time comes for them to take over, they will be able to take it even farther than I have. They had better not ruin everything because I WILL find a way to let them know that I am not happy.

On a more lighter note, Connor had his first kiss with Eric on the last day of Fall. I am kind of excited to see where this will take him. He just might follow is old dam in that manner as well. It actually makes Zack want to find his first kiss as well, but I told him that he has to get to know the guy a little bit before he can go ahead and kiss him. And he can't be his half brother. You will not believe how distraught Zack was when I told him that the Carpenter twins are his half brothers.
