The Davenport Dynasty ---Ended. Mods please move to Graveyard
« on: December 07, 2011, 05:09:59 PM »
Thirteen (days) years ago, a meteor crashed in my hometown. I was the only survivor.



Some say the power of all 4 death flowers found in my tiny pockets, was what kept the Grim away from me. Others say I could have just been very lucky.
Till this day I have no idea who my past family were and what they were like.The only thing my mother ever left me was a folded envelope with "Finnegan" scribbled on the front and inside, a letter addressed to a person named Charlotte.
The note explained something about "Immortal Dynasty" and how it was a very special gift only bestowed to those worthy of it's power. I scoured every library for any link and the only thing I found was a tiny obscure journal explaining the phenomenon of immortality. Then all of a sudden I felt a surge of something unexpected. I immediately had an incessant urge to cook, fish and make a meal called Ambrosia.
The recesses of my mind were opened I felt the power within my fingertips and I knew instantly that this was my destiny. I was to continue on with Immortal Dynasty..
And besides, what else do I have going for me except my love of French music?

So, I began to travel West towards Appaloosa Plains.




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Authors Note: How'd you like my new storyline? ;)

Okay, I figured I would explain a little bit about what happened with Finnegan and his connection to Charlotte. I had started the Radcliff Dynasty in SV a couple months back and couldn't continue due to some bugs and then I lost the file. Charlotte (whom the letter above was addressed too) was the founder of the R. Dynasty. So, I liked to continue their story vicariously through Finnegan and his new life if that's okay with you guys. And I really hope that made sense!

And for those who are still thoroughly confused. Read here. :)
Enjoy!

First of all it is great to see you back and secondly this is an amazing start to your new dynasty. I will just have a moments silence for the loss of Thornton though.

Well, I made it to Appaloosa.
I spent a fortune on the land, so I barely had enough money for a decent bed. Let alone a nice stove to begin cooking on!
But regardless, I had to get to work!


After earning a few cooking skill points, I decided I should go out and meet some of my neighbors. After all, I will be here for awhile I should get to know who I'm sharing the road with.

As I was walking down one of the streets, I came across a pretty blue house.
Then I met her.


Gracie: " Hi.. are you lost?"
Finn: " Err. Just in your eyes. Um I mean no.. I uhh just walking down street."


I wanted to run away right there. What was I thinking?? I mean I obviously haven't had any "real" experience with women. But how hard can it be to answer a simple question!??!

Gracie: " Um.. okay then? What are you doing all the way out here? I don't think I've see you around here before.."
Finn: " Well.. I was just walking to meet neighbors and you are my neighbor so I was coming down to meet you because your my neighbor and I live down over there by the pole and stuff."


Gracie looked at me funny and then busted out in a laughter. I just stood there for a couple seconds registering exactly what I had just said to her. I chuckled a few times just to ease my own awkwardness and then she spoke to me again.

Gracie: " Gosh, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have laughed that much. But I've never really had a boy act nervous around me.."
Finn: " It's okay. And I'm not nervous.. I just tend to ramble on occasion when I'm not nervous walking down the street like an idiot who doesn't know how to talk to girls and stuff. Okay, crap. I'm sorry I really need to just stop talking."
Gracie: " No, please don't its cute! Oh and by the way.. My name is Gracie"
Finn: " Well, it's nice to meet you Gracie, I'm Finn."




My nerves eventually did calmed down, and Gracie and I had conversation after conversation until we realized it was almost midnight.

Finn: " Well Gracie, I really should probably be getting home. But I would really love to see you again."
Gracie:" Oh goodness, it is getting late! I would love to see you again too.. How about I stop by tomorrow?"
Finn: " Wonderful. I'll be waiting.."


Wow, she was all I had ever hoped for. If I could marry her tomorrow I would.



Next Day

I decide I needed to get a job and found one. Sure, being a kitchen scullion wasn't a glamorous job but it was all I needed to get started.


I also managed to accumulate enough funds to build myself somewhat of a house.


Later that night after work, Gracie stopped by.
I made her some of my famous grilled cheese and then asked her if she wanted to join me out on the front lawn to watch the stars.
I wanted to show her that I had feelings for her. So I took a leap of faith and placed my hand on hers.


As you can see I managed to succeed in wooing her with my (no so) suave moves. We sat there looking up at the stars and while she was convincing me that I was wrong about one constellation being the little dipper, I realized I loved her.

I know it's crazy right? I mean I met her yesterday for crying out loud! But there's something about her, I mean she still wanted to be with me after all the weird stuff I said. That had to count for something right?
 
When I had finally had the courage to tell her how I felt. I realized she was sound asleep on my shoulder. So I took her in, and laid her gently on my bed, while I took the couch.

Thanks Rachel! I'm glad to be back finally! I know I am missing my Thornypoo.. :(

I'm sorry for the loss of the Radcliffs but this is amazing! I love Finnegan and he and Gracie are really cute together!
Yeah me too. And I'm glad you think so! I wasn't sure if it was going to be good or not because I put soo much effort in to the Radcliff's story I didn't want this one to just look dumb compared to them :P

Ah! I love this already! Finn is really good looking, and he and Gracie will make cute kids!
I KNOW RIGHT?!?! I can't wait to see what their kids look like!

A delightful new Dynasty, kattiq! It's great to have you back.
Thanks lily :) I'm glad to be back!

The Next Morning

I awoke to the sounds of someone in the kitchen..Only to find Gracie making breakfast.

Finn: " Hey, good morning.."
Gracie: " Oh, hey I hope you don't mind me using your kitchen.. I just wanted to thank you for taking care of me last night."
Finn: " No problem, I mean I wasn't going to leave you outside all night. Mind if I help you?"




We spent most of the morning up to our eyeballs in pancake batter, until I finally managed to summon up what little courage I had to make things more serious between us..

So I pulled her close and looked into her eyes and asked.. Will you marry me?


I got down on one knee and pulled out a ring. But what she said next broke my heart.

(I apologize for looking like such a creeper. I had to go to work right after.)

Gracie: " Finn, I'm sorry. It's not that I don't love you. It's just you don't know who I was before I met you. I don't have a good reputation around here. If they even saw you with me... I just can't..I'm sorry.."
Finn: " But Gracie.. I don't care about who you were before I met you.. All I care about is who you will become when you're with me..Forever"
Gracie: "I have to go. There's something I need to do.. I.. I'm so sorry.."


With that she just left. I couldn't even imagine life without her.. And now..I guess I'll have to manage. So I got a puppy and named him Reeko.
 
(Isn't he ADORABLE?!?! The dog that is..)

Even with the love of a new puppy.. My heart was still at an all time low. But I still knew she was the one for me.. I just had to work harder at getting her to trust me.


A Couple Days Later

*Telephone Rings*

Gracie: " Hello?"
Finn: " Hey..uhh Gracie. It's me..Finn.. I was wondering if you wanted to come over and just talk"
Gracie: " Look Finn, I'm not sure that's a good idea.."
Finn: " Gracie please.. Just hear me out.. Please I need to see you.."
Gracie: " Okay.. I'll be over in a few"


Little did she know the plans I had for her.

When she arrived I led her to a quite secluded area and had a romantic picnic set up for us.


Gracie: " Oh wow Finn.. This.. This is the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me.."
Finn: " well maybe you should stick around me a little while longer and see just how sweet I can be.."


She looked at me with those baby blue eyes, and gave me a kiss.

Gracie: " I'm sorry about the other night. I just got scared.. I shouldn't have hurt you like that. But I just want to let you know.. That if at any moment you want to ask again. I'll say yes."

So guess what I did next.. Yes, I asked her AGAIN!

Proposal Take Two.

So, I got down on one knee and told her how much she meant to me. And asked her to marry me once again.. And she said yes.
We hugged, and I became the happiest man alive.







---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, I'm not really sure why the first three pictures are bigger than the last ones. But photobucket told me they are all the same size! So I apologize for the weirdness.

Oh and I hope you guys don't mind. But I didn't add the actual "proposal moment" because I thought it took away from the dialogue. And besides I figured since you guys probably see that same scene all the time I'd switch it up a bit. I hope you guys liked this update!
