It’s a new day, and Tambara and I are reaching our next life stages. Tambara will become school-aged, and I’ll officially be starting the second part of adulthood. What better way to celebrate getting older than to get in a great workout? I slowly climb out of bed to avoid waking Maia and head downstairs…
I can tell there’s something on Maia’s mind when we arrive home. Wade: Everything okay? Maia: Yes and no Wade: No? Maia: I’m worried about my father. Maia fills me in on what she saw around Clyde’s house that concerns her. Wade: Yeah, I picked up on a few things too. But I knew something…
I’m exhausted when we arrive in San Sequoia a few hours later. But rather than going straight home where I can nap, Maia insists on stopping by and checking on her father first. Maia: We won’t stay long. I just want to make sure he’s okay. Wade: What makes you think he wouldn’t be? Maia:…
We have a few more hours before it’s time to check out of the rental, so I head downstairs to check on Dray to make sure he’s not sleeping in. I knock on the door, surprised to hear his nondrowsy voice respond. Drake: Come in I see him sitting on the bed, looking deep in…
Note: Aside from most of Drake and Damon’s dialogue, this part of the collab was written by Maria, also known as igglemouse. The link takes you to her Tumblr page! Tonight is the night, date night, and for me, it’s never too early to start preparing. I like to give myself time and space to make…
I return to the rental as a married man, which, honestly, I never would have predicted would be the case when we first arrived yesterday morning. The place seems different, almost brighter somehow. It’s incredible what happens to one’s entire outlook when the things you wish so hard for suddenly come true. I feel like…
Maia calls her father to tell him about the engagement, and that she and Wade are eloping. Unlike Me-Me, Clyde doesn’t care about weddings and big formal affairs. But it matters that Dub has the money to care for his daughter. Clyde: *on the phone* So he’s finally putting a ring on it? Good. *brief…
The house is quiet, and everyone else is asleep when we return to the rental. It’s officially the morning of our wedding, but we don’t wait until after exchanging vows to begin our honeymoon. We are in the world’s most romantic city and are drunk on its effects, so we take full advantage of the…
Drake swims a few laps in the pool. He’s glad that Dub invited him on this trip. Traveling and seeing more of the Sim world has always been on his to-do list, but a big part of him wishes he had more time to prepare. Drake steps out of the pool to take a new…
At six on the dot, Maia and I make our way to the top of Torres Amanecer, to the restaurant of the same name. I approach the host, who greets us in English. I’m glad–otherwise, I’d be in trouble. Host: How may I help you? Wade: We have a six o’clock reservation under the name…
