Caspian No Story DecaDynasty

[KRae]

As the subject line states, this is not a story merely a log of my progress in my DecaDynasty attempt. As much as I love reading stories, writing them is just not for me.

I began my dynasty in Riverview with Billy Caspian. He married Elaine Joy moving her into his home at 45 Lost Willow Road. On week one day six, their first child and heir, Klickitat, was born. Their second child, Addie, was born 10 days later. Klickitat easily (no Seasons installed) got on the honor roll both as a child and a teen.

Good Luck On The Story

Happy you're doing this in Riverview! Klickitat looks a little like Elaine.

[PeregrineTook]

Fantastic!  You've commented on my stories multiple times and now I get to see your take on stories.  Just curious, are you planning to post all of them in their sleepwear?  It's unique.  I wondered if it was reflective of the Caspian name concept and the view of Narnia as a dream-like world.  Maybe I'm reading too much into it.  Probably.

[KRae]

Well, whatever they happen to be wearing. Actually, the first is her swimwear. I think I took that photo second. Between photos she switched clothes to go play on the slip n slide...as usual.

Good luck with this!  Given the speed you did the 4x4, I expect to see generation 10's stats in a week or two 

Where does Klickitat's name come from?

[KRae]

I used towns in Washington as a naming theme for my 4x4. This time I'm using county names. Some will be normal, others rather unusual. I started with Klickitat as a tribute to my daughter. She's deputy prosecutor/deputy coroner of that county. Also, I'm not influencing gender at all.

[hazelnut]

I remembered your 4x4 naming theme and wondered whether this one was related.

[KRae]

Klickitat Caspian married her long-time boyfriend, Dimitri Ivanov, and moved into his home at 13 Lost Willow Rd. His sister Tatiana helpfully joined the business career to help encourage new families to move into town. On the fifth day after moving, the second heir, Clark, was born, followed six days later by his brother, Ben, who went on to befriend most of the town.

Good work! I can see I'm going to have to hurry if I want to be the next in the Hall of Fame.

[PeregrineTook]

Nice work!  I have tried and failed at the decadynasty three times (the last time because I just got bored and prioritized other stories), so I always admire those who stick with it.

[KRae]

Being stubborn and OCD helps. Heir three has actually completed his requirements and moved. I'll post his stats in a few days. He was tough - seven days to elder and falsely accused of peeing himself in public on the last day.

[KRae]

Clark Caspian married his very patient girlfriend, Mia Gann, and moved to 550 Riverview Road. Her parents had passed on, and she was living alone. On the 5th day after the move, a new heir, Pierce Caspian, was born. Three days later (someone was hoping for twins) his brother, Brock, was born. Both boys easily made the honor roll both in grade school and high school despite the lack of tutoring.

Just a couple of notes: Elaine Joy's genes are very strong - the nose, the eyes, the cheekbones. The blond hair persists even though all heirs have married dark haired spouses. I'm having the founder/former heirs be responsible for the 10 items to take some pressure off the younger generations and to give them something to do other than water toys.

[PeregrineTook]

Loved the shots with the casual porch setting and all these gargoyle and griffin presences all around him.  Nice touch!  Congrats on another generation.
