Last update/ Next Update
Jacob Ellison is 43, Lorelai is 37, Kiara is 5, and AJ is 2 (Slade Willis is 28, Lyria Nott is 5)

Baby it's you
You're the one I love, You're the I need
You're the only one I see
Baby it's you
 You're the one that gives your all, you're the one I can always call
When I need you make everything stop
Finally you put my love on top

Summer was Kiara Ellison's favorite time of year. Nothing but fun in the sun with her friends! She and Lyria Nott had gotten to be good friends and played together a lot. Kiara's dad managed Lyria's uncle's band, Mellow Metal.



She liked playing with Lyria, but sometimes she through the ball a little too hard. Kiara could toss the ball back even harder if she wanted to, but her mom told her that she had to be careful. Her elven powers were beginning to show themselves and she was actually much more stronger than the average 5 year old. She had more fun playing with Vanya de Muse and Arwen Vasan because they understood what was going on. They had the same secret to keep so it was okay to talk to them about all the weird feelings she had. Sometimes she even thought she could hear what people were really thinking.........


But that didn't mean she didn't appreciate Lyria. Her mom told her that it was very important for her to have fully human friends too. After all, her daddy was human and she loved him very much!


Jake was a little concerned about how the kids were going to develop. While there were elves that mated with humans, there weren't exactly handbooks on how all the dna combined or what to really expect. Kiara was beginning to show signs of her elven half, but AJ seemed to still be relatively normal. Normal.........that was a word that would never be used to describe his family!


Lorelai had been spending quite a bit of time in Vasadori. Since it had been confirmed that Arwen Vasan was in fact the heir to the throne, preparations were being made to welcome the new queen. Arwen would be required to attend Paerolia once she turned 12 years old so that she could be prepped for her reign as queen. Lorelai was helping the elders set things in place and decide the best course of action. There were some things that she very much disagreed with and could imagine that Gurth would be pissed about. But she supposed they would cross that bridge when they got there........Kiara's powers grew everyday and Lorelai often transported back into her private room to find her asleep on the couch. There were no doors to the room and Lorelai knew that Kiara had to be transporting through the wall........raising two half elves was going to be quite the adventure..........


"Do you regret marrying me? I mean this can't be easy for you," Lorelai said to Jake later.
"No! Lorelai, I love you. I don't even really remember life before you. It wasn't any kind of life. Does it get aggravating that you've gotten entangled in this whole mess? Well yea, of course. But I get it. Vasadori is your home, you have to do what you can to save it. And our kids should be able to see the other side of their heritage in the best possible light. It's going to be crazy raising them, and I wouldn't have it any other way," he said.
"Oh, Jake........"
"Never question my love for you. There is no one I would rather be with, Lorelai, no kids I want more than Kiara and AJ."
"I love you Jacob Ellison," she said with a smile.
"And I you............."


Jake was spending less and less time at The Hub. With Lorelai spending so much of her time in Vasadori, he had to step up his daddy duties. Besides, Mellow Metal was getting ready to go on tour to promote their new album, Sky Will Fall.


Touring was really hard on the body and all the guys were taking it easy and enjoying their families before leaving them for the road. Well, in Slade's case, spending time with the ladies! So Jake was quite surprised when he stopped by randomly.
"What are you doing here? I thought you'd either be under or on top of some poor star struck girl," Jake said laughing.
"Hey man, that's not all I do," Slade said with a frown.
"It was a joke......what's up with you?"


"I don't know......I did something......something unimaginable........."
"Dammit Slade, what did you do? Is this going to require our lawyers?" Jake asked.
"No! It's nothing like that......I........I asked Giovanna to move in with me," Slade said with a frown.
"Wait, what? You asked a woman to move into the bachelor pad? Whoa............"
"I know! What the hell is wrong with me?"


"Let me make sure I have this right. You, well known bachelor, asked a woman to share your home with you?" Jake asked.
"That's what I said isn't it?"
"Well are you in l---"
"Don't you DARE Jake! Don't even use that word," Slade said disgusted.
"Well what other explanation is there?"
"Look, she lives in a crap part of town because she's trying to save up to open this restaurant. She's beautiful. She doesn't need to be walking the streets late at night alone. Or going home to an empty house. I was trying to be a good dude for once," Slade said.
"Then why does it bother you so much?"


"I don't do that. She's not the only chick I've messed around with that had a sad story. It just came out my mouth, man. Like just tumbled out. Hell, even she was surprised," Slade said.
"I'm sure she was. You're pretty straight forward about your intentions with women."
"Exactly. I don't know, maybe it's just the sex. It's like........she's like......totally uninhibited. And spontaneous......she's like the chick version of me."


"Look, before Lorelai, I enjoyed my fair share of groupies. They're backstage of every show, a few even slip up to your hotel room. But I never gave two craps about any of them. It was rare that I even saw them more than once. But then Lorelai showed up to one of my shows. And as soon those blue eyes locked on me, I knew I was done. I guess what I'm saying is that if she made this much of an impression on you, it might be for a reason other than just good sex," Jake said.
"You sound like Brian and Kenny. All of you are wrapped up in these women and you just think that everyone's story ends like yours. I LIKE being single. I like getting with groupies. It's freaking awesome!" Slade said.
"Then what's the problem? Just chop it up to sex brain and move on," Jake said.


"There's more.......I didn't say this to Brian or Kenny because I knew they would bust my balls about it. She turned me down," Slade said.
"Why would they care about that?"
"No, that's not it. She turned me down........and........I felt.........bad. Like I was pissed, ya know? Like how dare she turn down my offer. Women would give their left boob to get an invitation like that! And she just turns me down?"
"Did she say why?"
"Yea. Said I looked like I didn't mean to say it. That I didn't really want her in my house," Slade said shaking his head.


"You realize you sound crazy right? You DIDN'T really want her in the house. You said you regretted it shortly after. So once again, what is the problem?"
"I don't know! This shit is confusing, I don't like it. She said if I still wanted her to move in after the tour, she would consider it," Slade said.
"Are you going to ask her again?"
"Hell no! She had her chance and she blew it. I gotta get outta here. Got a date. Only one way to forget all this craziness. Gotta get occupy my mind," Slade said with a smile.
"If you say so............."


If someone had told Jake that he would see this before he was old and gray, he would have called them a liar. Whether he knew it or not, whether he wanted to accept it or not, Jake would bet a million dollars that Slade Willis was on the verge of falling head over heels in love. Jake had to meet this Giovanna girl..........performing this miracle should make her eligible for sainthood!

* Finally got it done! I've had these pictures sitting for months smh. I'm going to try to get some kind of a schedule going.....may posting every other week. And on the off week, I can play the game. Still trying to work all that out.

* I love seeing a confused Slade lol. His wants are very much centered around Giovanna. I don't want anyone to get excited though. I can't see Slade going down quietly. I imagine this is about to be quite a bumpy and dramatic ride for Mr. Willis lol

* I'm still ironing out what all I'm going to allow my half elves to do. I think I'm going to give them all the transportation ability and then maybe they will each have one thing unique to them. I've already talked about Vanya's ability to sense the feelings of others and how she can manipulate them a little. Kiara here will be able to read minds I think. I haven't decided what AJ will be able to do yet. Arwen of course will have access to the whole spectrum of witch powers that the game allows. I'm still working on building the sets for her story and I still plan to do it.

  1. Ha, I love seeing Slade with his head all muddled up over a woman! It's certainly a new state of affairs for him and I'm very interested to see where it goes. Giovanna doesn't seem very much like Meadow.

    1. Yea there are some distinct differences between Giovanna and Meadow. Meadow was all about the prestige of being with a wealthy, well known man. Giovanna has a bit of her own fame being a model, so she doesn't really care about that part of Slade. She doesn't NEED him for anything really. She likes Slade just because he's Slade. Even if they don't end up together (I hope they do, but I'm going to try not to interfere too much), I think she will be good for him.

  3. Oh man, Slade is definitely growing up some, Giovanna is different than Meadow, and I think they have a better chance of making it work. Meadow wasn't on equal ground with Slade, and used him more than she enjoyed him I think.

    Kiara and Lyria are really cute together, as is little AJ.
