Though the rumors hurt (yet were coincidentally also true), the young couple were merely glad that their daughter was born healthy. *** YEAR 2France

DD(1): Lionne de Grieu - frizzy dark brown hair, hazel eyesOne day while Geneviève was at work with her family, a tired looking woman entered the inn, two little girls, her granddaughters, in tow. The grandmother told Geneviève their story, while the twins played with Lionne. Their parents had passed away due to illness and she had fetched the girls in order to care for them. But she was old and tired, she said, and knew she wouldn't have the energy to raise them the way the girls deserved. Noticing how well the twins got on with Lionne, Geneviève offered to take the girls in. *** YEAR 3France

While her sister traipsed about the country, Fleurie took to writing. Mostly, she penned the stories she told her younger siblings, but she kept a secret booklet full of her poetry, verses and verses about things she wished to keep secret. Fleurie also grew close to Bertrand's younger sister, Lysbette who came to live with them after her new husband died a sudden and tragic death. Lysbette and Fleurie would spend their days playing with the children and their nights talking late into the night. *** YEAR 18France

Bird(12): Georges - roosterGeneviève gave birth to another baby, a little girl. This one nearly killed her, the birth was so difficult. Bertrand promised her that this would be the last child. They would find a way to ensure they would have no more. The toll was simply too much for Geneviève. In Collette's most recent letters home, she wrote about the unrest growing in many of the small border towns that she and the troupe visited. She wrote how she hated to see them suffer so, many of them poor and starving. She mentioned that they met a group who were wanted to force the government's hand to change, a group, she said, that she and Marquis willingly joined. Both Lionne and Lysbette got married this year, Lionne to the town carpenter, Lysbette to an apothecary. Fleurie took Lysbette's leaving rather hard. When Geneviève approached her about it, Fleurie confided in her mother that she and Lysbette had grown very close, close enough that they both confided certain secrets in each other, including a shared one. Upon gently pressing Fleurie further, Geneviève learned exactly what that secret was: an attraction to women. *** YEAR 19France

Bertrand rushed to push the child out of the way, nearly getting hit himself. Lysbette and her husband, Zacarie, welcomed their first children this year. Taking after her older brother, Lysbette had twins, a pair of girls. Despite having very similar features, Lysbette could tell them apart immediately.

Fleurie confided in her mother that she secretly started seeing someone this year, a woman by the name of Theophaine. Around polite company, when asked if she had someone special in her life, Fleurie would talk about someone named Theo, allowing everyone to assume she was seeing a man. She told her mother that she and Theophaine are making plans to spend their lives together, perhaps opening an orphanage. *** YEAR 20France

Bird(14): Georges - roosterThe town bulletin shocked Bertrand. When he checked it in passing, he spotted a gossip column, listing all the different scandals. Among them, he saw Fleurie's relationship with Theophaine and a rumor that Thierry was running wild with the girls of the city. He advised Fleurie to leave town if she wanted to stay safe and he gave Thierry a stern talking to. Lysbette and Zacarie welcomed their third daughter this year, a little girl they named Rapine after one of Zacarie's sisters. The sister had passed away recently and Zacarie figured it was a good way to honor her. As Fleurie and Theophaine planned to leave the town, Theo found a baby abandoned on her doorsteps. In addition to the rumors about her relationship with Fleurie, word had gotten around the town that Theo would care for any child in need of a home. Theo and Fleurie chose to raise the boy as theirs. Collette and Marquis also welcomed a little girl to their growing family. Augustine didn't seem to appreciate having another kid in the house, but fortunately for him, he had the whole troupe to play with instead. Lionne and Joachim took Alfonce to a local miracle worker when he got dreadfully sick. The miracle worker used to be their neighbor, the poorest of the poor, before he started performing miracles and proclaiming to have contact with God himself. Lionne believed him, considering Alfonce inexplicably became better.
