Author's Note: Okay so we are a full one generation out at Barnacle Bay. So to amuse myself and hopefully you readers I thought I would have Nadia's kids sitting together and gossiping about the town and each other. You guys don't talk much so I might as well confuse the heck out of you! Just kidding moving on.
Also, this town has gotten weird...really weird. Story Progression has outdone itself. If I could take a picture of the kids sitting on the porchsteps I would. So be patient with me as I try yet another story format.
From the Stoop
Wesley walks up and joins Raquelle sitting on the back porch watching the sea.
Wesley: Did you hear?
Raquelle: No what?
Wesley: Aunt Hannah and Jude Cross-Inkbeard just got married.
Raquelle: Really? They have six kids and they just now get married?
Wesley: Apparently the time was right. How's Dad coping?
Raquelle: Not good. He stays out at the grave most days. He finally came in to eat today. Antony says Jerry joined his class at school today.
Wesley: Yeah, he's growing like a weed. Looks like his mother.
Raquelle: Poor child
Wesley: That's my wife you know!
Raquelle That's why you are laughing about it! You know as well as I do this town's gene pool is shrinking. The Cross-Inkbeards are the founders of most families and in some indirect way effect the genetics of most townies and their traits.
Wesley: Yep a town full of commitment issues and flirts...how weird is that. Sup Dianne.
Dianne sits down and watches the kids play with the other two.
Dianne: Did you guys read the social column of the paper today?
Wesley: Yeah we heard about Aunt Hannah good for them.
Dianne: Nooo the other couple. Grandma Lai got married to..to...Roldofo
Wesley & Raquelle: NO WAY!? I thought that was impossible!
Dianne: Think again.
Raquelle: Well that explains why he laughed when Grandpa died.
All three shudder with disgust.
Raquelle: I feel dirty
Dianne: I got married
Raquelle: Who got married?
Dianne: I got married
Wesley: You did what?
Dianne: I got married
Raquelle: To whom and when and where was I?
Dianne: The maid Ashley today and you were asleep in your bed
Wesley: The dude with the girly name?
Raquelle: Flirty maid horrible taste in clothes cute butt you married him? Why did you wake me up!!!!
Dianne: I wanted it to be quiet. With Mom passing away last week and all.
Wesley: You still could have gotten us
Raquelle looks at the pictures: She still could have changed out of the booty shorts! Who are you trying to mimic the Inkbeards?
Dianne: Noo but I am pregnant and I didn't feel like wearing that dress
Wesley falls off the steps. Raquelle stares jaw dropped. Dianne takes off her coat.
Dianne: Someone has to improve the gene pool of this town. Besides Dad is very excited
Raquelle: Well we are too. We are just shocked you leave for what you told us is a medical conference and come back like that?!
Dianne: Ashley and I bought the house next to Wesley and Rosie
Wesley: So that's you guys...can you hear us uh
Dianne: Fighting? Yes everynight
Wesley: Greeeaaattt
Jonah walks out and pulls up a chair: How's my little girl and her nooboo?
Dianne: We are doing fine Dad how's grandma?
Jonah: Dead
Wesley falls off the porch again: Medic
Raquelle: What happened
Jonah sighs in shock still: I rang the doorbell she answered and then poof Grim was there and she was gone.
Wesley: That has to be the shortest marriage in Barnacle Bay yet
Raquelle: No Serena Abe and Moe Pesce were together for about three hours before that fistfight at founder's park
Dianne: Who knew ol' Serena could fight like that?
Jonah: So that's why that young man was there...Dianne isn't he your ex sweetheart?
Dianne: Yeah Dad he was we broke up after high school. Sorry about Grandma
Jonah: Yeah me too she had a really long life of Crime. I never arrested her though didn't seem right. Outlived all the old elders.
Raquelle: Let's go in and get some dinner. Kids dinner!!
Jonah: Raquelle you are looking a bit poochy are you sure you aren't eating to much
Raquelle acts secretive and rushes everyone inside.
