╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
XXXXXXXX Yoakim Jr. spent the last two years being generally a kid. There wasn't a local psychologist or therapy office for him and Theresa didn't want to have to move him to a completely new environment to get some either. Not only because he would lose any friendships he had, but because she had only just finished paying for the house they were constructing on their land! ..But, Junior was appreciative of this decision as he much preferred staying around Angelina than anything. The two kids bonded pretty quick as a result of the kidnapping and are often caught hanging around each other during school hours, considering that's the only time of the day that they can see each other. Outside of school, he either stays at home alone to do his homework, study, or play video games – ah, until late Summer of Year 3 when Theresa kicked him out of the house to do something more active. He ended up going for a walk to the park so he could sit on the swing and stare at his feet for a few hours, when he met Molly Boyer. Well, met her again. Junior would like to say he was 'friends' with her now, but, really, she just tells him to do stuff she doesn't feel like doing and yells at him. Which he doesn't mind so much because, well, at least he has someone to be with, right?
XXXXXXXXDuring his eleventh birthday, Theresa had decided to give him an actual replacement for his missing pet rock, which was, lo and behold, a little chick from the Hipp's personal coop! They were probably going to end up selling it anyway, so, of course, the rejected chick was easy pickings for a quick gift to the boy. He actually was pretty excited to have the chicken, which he named Gatling, and happily let live in his room for a season or two until the chick got too big and was forced into a pin and the modified rabbit hutch outside. Now, the Waldroups officially have a hen to give them a fresh egg a day! After his father came back home, there was some talk about changing his name to something less, well, Yoakim, but he spoke up for once during the year to protest, being firm on liking the name and not wanting to have to tell everyone a new one. Kade consented easily enough and the topic hasn't been brought up since. Outside of that, the boy still heads to church weekly with Theresa and Kade to both see his uncle and worship the Goddess. He observes more than he did before, but he still seems to be the same quiet child he was two years previous.╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

⑯  XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXмao xiqui XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
XXXXXXXXWas anyone expecting anything to happen with Mao? ..Well, congratulations, you get a fortune cookie for that! Mao certainly didn't do much for the first part of the last two years. Simply continue living life, experimenting with new drugs and cures on his employees, torture Mei, fight with Freja, and admire Judith from afar every chance he got while cursing the fact that he didn't have a child to have a reason to be at the school anymore since Zhi graduated. Of course, that stewed an idea that any onlooker would have been able to guess by now! Yes, Mao decided he needed a child~! So, off the man went to hole himself up in his office and home to study on the fastest means to have a child without the annoying bothers of dealing with a woman that wasn't Judith. ..In fact, Judith having a baby would probably make her even more attractive on account of the hormones, so the man would have gladly jumped on board with that. But, Judith's ovaries were probably a little past their expiration date, so he would have to make due with a quick child.
XXXXXXXXThe moment he discovered a method to do so, he had went off to gloat to Freja. Why? Because that was just what Mao did. He gloated happily – until she decided to mock him for believing the Peruvian Hadagaar Lichen mixture wouldn't possibly work! She even went on to point out some stupid ritual of hers that he couldn't care to remember because it was just that outrageous of a belief! The argument that ensued lasted the whole day and then half a night before they decided that they would just have to try both out to see which would work. Freja was the most available woman, so it began with her silly ritual on account that it was her body. Mao would love to say that it was his sperm, but it wasn't like he would be carrying the infant, so he had to shrug it off. ..Much to his pleasure, she didn't end up pregnant and then it was his turn. She drank his concoction, they waited a day to impregnate her, but.. nothing came of it. Of course, it was all due to Freja being useless even for a woman. A few weeks later, Mao was just about to force Mei to go through his method when Freja came storming in to tell him that it was a success! Ah, of course, it was.. well, they weren't sure which method it was that worked, but Mao likes to believe it was his own work. How else could she have gotten pregnant?
XXXXXXXXThen went a full nine month wait of watching and monitoring Freja going through pregnancy. The man, being the traditionalist that he was, had forced Freja into marrying him before the infant came out, but the marriage lasted a total of twenty-four hours before the divorced and decided that it would be better for both their sanity that they simply stay where they were when they first met – at eachother's throats. Eventually, their child was born and dubbed as Xochiquetzal, with Mao taking the girl during the Summer and Winter and Freja having the child in Spring and Fall. Of course, Mao does get to go to the school on occasion to see JudithXochiquetzal all year round anyway~ ..Oh, right, also, Newt was apparently catnapped after a run in with some crazed child. If the cat doesn't escape soon, he'll likely disown it and get a bird instead. ╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

⑰  XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXɀhi ӽiqui XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
XXXXXXXX As we all remember, Zhi Xiqui was busy being head over heels in love with River Park, fawning after every little detail the woman had – and totally taking everything she said to heart! Completely! Which meant when Zhi was told she would have to repeat the school year if she wanted to graduate at the end of Spring in Year 3, she dropped out that second and headed off to Mao to borrow some money. Some bartering between the two later and Zhi took a boat ride to the closest airport so she could go to none other than Japan. Why? Well, Mao hated the Japanese and Zhi figured if she was going to be an idol anywhere, she may as well kill two birds with one stone and impress River while pissing Mao off. Zhi really didn't know what she was doing in the country as she spent most of her time just surviving in cheap hotels and lurking around busy areas dressed in her best clothing, because, really, how else would an agent pick her up if she didn't look her very best? She lived off of the chunk Mao had loaned her for a few weeks, money that should have lasted her at least a couple of seasons.. Oh, but, Zhi was so bored and there were so many shops! She couldn't help buying some things while she was waiting for someone to pick her up!
XXXXXXXXAt least she was a little more productive than that and spent some time learning a few phrases in Japanese to get by, but she still stuck out as a big old foreign thumb wherever she went, however cute she thought she looked. It was when she was looking at living on the streets as some cheap whore that she decided to call her favorite aunt to come rescue her! Really, if Zhi ever did get to talking to the Waldroups, they could probably gab about their awesome uncle and aunt's that ended up more successful than their actual parents.. Oh, well, like that would ever happen. Min-Ya just so happened to have been going to Japan for some sightseeing and, when her nephew called, she decided she may as well pay her a visit too. And what a lovely visit that was! The argument that ensued had both of them kicked out for being a disturbance and Min-Ya dragging her nephew over to her own, much better hotel. There, the woman proceeded to straighten things out. In Fall of Year 3, she flew Zhi back to China and finally arranged for her to finish her sex reassignment surgery. During Winter, they came back to Japan so Min-Ya could talk to a friend who knew a friend who had a cousin who knew a friend who knew a girl who's uncle was a talent scout for some large agency in the States.
XXXXXXXXThe man contacted Min-Ya to arrange for her new niece to have an audition in an up and coming agency in need of a handful of youths. Zhi's Japanese was a little better, but it was still below average at best and her singing wasn't extraordinary, but she still looked pretty cute bouncing around in short skirts and having no qualms with showing off her body. It took almost a year before Zhi's name was even out on the vine, but within that time she had managed to bang a model or two in hopes to better experience herself as River said. Yes, she still thought of the woman even then! Finally, in Winter of Year 4, her first single was released! And it was a hit! People were talking about here all across town and praising her crappy singing and choreography~! ...For about a week.. Min-Ya had shrugged at Zhi's confusion and concluded with, “That's showbiz.” before leaving back to her own thing. Zhi decided that being the idol of a week was enough of an idol for River and returned back to Nirvani with whatever money she had made. Ah, but, don't worry! Zhi still kept in contact with Elliot Park as penpals, while Alanis LeBlanc got a letter every season or so to keep somewhat in touch.. She was a little surprised to find a baby with Mao when she got back, even a little pissed when she found out she was left out of the name, but, oh, well, she shoved her one, pathetic little CD in Japanese at Mao to make it even.╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
XXXXXXXX ..is pretty damn short. Or, at least, in Talna Hipp's case, it was. The woman hardly accomplished much the entire two years outside of being the calm, happy vegetable farmer's housewife she was. She went around town and met with all of the townsfolk, tended to the chickens, gave birth to four children with the fifth on the way~! Tucker, Tully, Turnip, and Tunde Hipp can now be seen running (or crawling) around the farmhouse, happy as can be with a ma and pa like the Hipps! Of course, they're only NPC children, so no one seems to notice them very well, but, oh, well, it wasn't like the parents thought they would be of any use until there were only male or female bachelors left in town – they couldn't have the population falling under! So, Tucker & Tully both are being trained in the ways of wooing, while Turnip Hipp is normally taught how to be the best darn chicken farmer she can be and Tunde talks to the cucumbers come Summer. What role will their next baby fill? Who knows! That's for the NPC gods to figure out!╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
XXXXXXXX The Triggs would be a small family consisting of one son, Ed Triggs, one daughter, Vi Triggs, and previously acquainted with by a few – the father, Kip Triggs. They have yet to do much outside of enroll Ed into school in the Winter of Year 4 when they first came to the island, but it was solely the man and the boy at that time. There wasn't a home to live in, so they just as quickly left. However, they are likely to return sometime in early Spring if the apartment the man has rented out just recently is of any indication to his intentions. Although, he hasn't said any word of greeting to an actual resident of the island, only going shopping once at the General Store, but it wasn't like he was treated as anything but an NPC, so it's hardly to say that anyone would remember him when he comes back.╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

⑳  XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXαt ȶhe Ϲircus XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
XXXXXXXX The Circus arrived in Nirvani sometime in late Winter of Year 3 or early Spring of Year 4, it's not entirely certain as no one but Romane seems to really care for exact dates and.. who would ask Romane, really? You'd probably end up shot or arrested as a result of the question! ..Anyway, the circus came in and never really opened when it did. Instead, it cleared off the plot of land with the two owners and their trusted employees to help get the word out of the fun and games each Summer would bring at the circus~! Ah, but it was such hard work at the field! The Church continued to bug them about being too close, then too loud, and then just too.. there, causing a silent feud between the carnies and the priest – all until Piera, one of the owners, cursed them out and just left the island in favor of doing her act in some other circus location of theirs! They still owned the circus (until someone feels like buying it off of their hands, that is), but they were little more than NPCs to the people of Nirvani, making the few employees left the current 'owners'. ..Ah, there is a unique man who joined them shortly after with his young cohort, but he does little more than a few acrobatic tricks and fwoosh his way around the circus..╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
