Fanon:Archibald Perez-Garvouis
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Archibald Garvouis (previously, Perez) is an elderly Sim, who lived his life in Riverview. Born out of the wedlock or any official union, he would only later in life learn the truth about his father. Growing up, he was described by his neighbors as an unusual Sim, who has such way with words, he could easily manipulate them to give him what he wanted, he would need to remind them of his mother's misery. Nevertheless, he never amounted to anything in life, unware that he could have had much more than he actually did.
Biography
Birth to Childhood Years
Archibald was born at home, a cottage next to the Broke family, to the beautiful Marissa Perez, an unsucessful stylist and image consultant. He is the illegitimate son of the married Isaac Garvouis who lived happily with his family in the Remington manor, a fact that he would learn much later in life. Even though people are inclined to believe his background led him to be the way he is, he was actually born evil.
His mother neglected him in most obvious fashion one could ever do, never buying a crib or any toys for that matter. She was much more invested in her own emotional turmoil and drama, which he would despise but use to his advantage. As a toddler, he wasn't taught any toddlers skills and grew up badly as a result, getting the Mooch.
As a child, he had no friends and instead became the school's bully, and would actually bully the younger nerdy Alfred for a short time, unaware that they were half-brothers. He was a C- student most of the time, and would rarely do his homework, asking (read: bullying) someone else to do it for him. There were times he would even miss school, pretending to be sick. He learned no skills, except for two points in the fishing skil and one in charisma. He also did not enjoy reading and didn't ever play with toys, preferring to collect bugs he would then try to cook, to his mother's horror.
In order to call his mother's attention, he would also pull various pranks on his mother and the rich man she was trying to woo, the much older Doctor Wilson. Archibald would ridicule their relationships and his mother's vain attemps at seduction. Her emotional outbursts combined with his mean spirit, would condemn the romantic bond, and Doctor Wilson would refuse to have her and little Archibald move in with him, fearing for his reputation and afraid of the devious little kid. Marissa would learn she was pregnant but before the child was born, Dr. Wilson died of Old Age, and the Perez wouldn't inherit a single penny from his death.
His brother Caio was born at home, and while Archibald never grew a particular dislike for him as he did for his mother, he resented having to take care of him while his mother was out. This time a crib was bought and placed in the small room. Marissa began dating again. Alfred, once more, grew up badly into a teen, and became technophobic, while Caio into a toddler.
Although his mother was in relationship with another Sim, Archibald always had a lingering feeling she longed for someone else and he exploited her feeling of inadequacy.
Teenage Years to Young Adulthood
Archibald grew more enemies as time went by, but had a love-hate relationship with a younger girl, named Rebecca Broke-Elliot, daughter of Ruby Broke and they on and off many times.
Archibald would once again take pleasure in seeing his mother being involved with someone, but never leading to anything serious. She would also become pregnant, well into her late adulthood. She gave birth to a beautiful daughter, named Mariana.
Unlike how he used to be with his little brother, he enjoyed seeing Mariana's needs bottom out when Marissa left the children at his care. Caio never asked to for help in his homework, as Archibald had become a D+ student.
Rebbeca would break up with Archibald, learning of his evil trait, being good herself. However, Archibald was still infatuated with her and continued pursuing her.
Archibald would grow the odd habbit of sneaking into the Cemetery at night, instead of going out like other kids. He even asked Rebecca on a date to the Masoleum, invitation that was refused. He got a part-time job there as a Burial Specialist but quit, believing it was not his job to provide for the family. Mariana never grew fond of her brother, being Friendly herself.
