Re: Years of your life Game- Part 1(first 10 years)
YEAR 1
H (35): Tycho Cornelius Radclyffe – curly, brown hair and blue eyes
W (35): Amina Jale (Olsen) Radclyffe – curly, black hair and green eyesS (5): Ender Jude Radclyffe - curly, black hair and green eyes
D (3): Villette Miranda - curly, black hair and green eyes
D (2): Willow Suzan - curly, black hair and green eyes
S (nb): Justus Aslan Radclyffe – curly, brown hair and blue eyes
Ender is diagnosed with near total hearing loss following an illness. The family starts to learn sign language (helpful with new baby Justus too!) in case he doesn’t care to continue using hearing aids later on, or decide to get a cochlear implant, which his parents will let him choose to do or not when he is older.
YEAR 2 Tycho and Amina are having marital problems. Tycho has been working a lot, and traveling for work frequently, and this among other things including arguing, have caused a lot of stress sand disconnection, and the couple decides to separate. The children are living with Amina and visit Tycho weekly when he is not away on business.YEAR 3
Foster 1 (sister) (8): Maeve Blanche Bennett - straight, red hair and brown eyes
Foster 2 (brother) (5): Alex Callan Bennett - straight, brown hair and blue eyes
Amina decides to begin fostering children after discussing it with the children (and Tycho even though they are separated since it affects their children and overall family life). They had discussed wanting to foster someday previously and Amina decided she wanted to even if things aren’t turning out as planned in other areas. The first to arrive are an 8 year old girl, Maeve and her 5 year old brother, Alex. Ender isn’t thrilled at not being the oldest kid in the family anymore, but has to admit that Maeve (and her red hair) are pretty cool. He thinks Alex is pretty annoying, but Alex gets along well with Villette and Willow, so Ender is tolerating him. Amina isn’t if she’ll be fostering to adopt at this point, they’ll see how things go with the siblings’ family and then if they want things to be permanent.YEAR 4 Ender’s hidden talent for art is discovered! He really enjoys sculpting things and drawing, especially in pastels.YEAR 5 The Radclyffes adopt a pet they name named Jellypuff (because Justus got to name her). Jelly is a panda ferret who was found wandering around a public place. She loves to be chased, chew clothing, lick fabric, always darts through doors when they are opened, and will throw her empty food bowl around if she’s hungry.

There’s other adoption news this year as well. After two years, Amina will be pursuing adoption for Maeve and Alex, who unfortunately can’t be placed back with the Bennetts. The two siblings have bonded with their new family, even Tycho who they visit with the other children and get along great with, and everyone is excited to make it official.YEAR 6 D (dec at 8): Villette Miranda - curly, black hair and green eyesFD (11): Maeve Blanche [Bennett] Radclyffe - straight, red hair and brown eyes
FS (7): Alex Callan [Bennett] Radclyffe - straight, brown hair and blue eyes
Tragically, 8 year old Villette passes away after being hit by a car while riding her bike with friends. Her parents are devastated to lose their first daughter. To add to the suddenness of it all, this was right after the adoption of Maeve and Alex was confirmed and Alex, who bonded strongly with Villette when he first came into the family due to her calming presence, has become very withdrawn. Villette was a creative, loving member of the family whom everyone adored. She and Ender were close, being the first two kids, and she and Willow were best friends. All of the Radclyffes are leaning on each other to make it through their grief.YEAR 7 Looking for the small things that bring him joy, Ender has been focusing on his favorite class, Art. He’s developing his talents, getting into watercolors and trying out photography, in addition to sculpture and drawing which he still loves, and hopes to make art part of his career some day.YEAR 8 - Bf (35): Gabriel Gianluigi Bello - curly, brown hair and brown eyesThough still only separated, our original couple have begun moving on with their lives romantically. Tycho met and clicked with a charming, single Italian man, Gabriel, while traveling for work. They are currently seeing each other long-distance, but there is talk about one of them moving if things keep going well in their relationship.Note: rolled die for partner’s gender and physical attributes, sort of rolled for age, and used random renamer for nameYEAR 9 D (nb): Nova Violetta Bello-Radclyffe - Wavy, brown hair and green eyesTycho announces that he is transferring at work and moving to Italy to live with his partner, Gabriel (this was somewhat expected), but he surprises everyone by announcing that they are also becoming parents via surrogate within the year. Everyone’s happy that things have stayed good in their relationship (they’ve all met him on video chats, and he’s friendly and loves kids, Maeve and Ender were even planning to visit on vacation the next time Tycho went) but are shocked and hurt that they didn’t reveal they were planning to have a child, especially given the move and that Amina and Tycho aren’t technically divorced yet. Nevertheless, little Nova is born (she mostly favors their donor in looks) and Tycho and Gabriel are thrilled at the arrival of their healthy and precious daughter.YEAR 10
The past year had its ups and downs, but the whole family is going on vacation to Italy to meet baby Nova and of course to see the sights.H (44) (separated): Tycho Cornelius Radclyffe – curly, brown hair and blue eyesW (44) (separated): Amina Jale (Olsen) Radclyffe – curly, black hair and green eyes
