Thank you for returning to Area 62 after our short hiatus do to the recent wave of insanity that is sweeping the SimWorld. We come this week to the home of Nervous and Circe Subject. If you will remember from last time Nervous was abducted by aliens and gave birth to an alien daughter, Omega. Circe gave birth to her and Nervous' first child, a son Odysseus, soon after Omega's birth. Also, Circe was involved in a bit of a custody battle with Loki over their son Mitchell. Let us go to Circe now and see how things are coming along for them.
Subject Family - Chapter 2
Hi there, Circe here. Well our family has grown since your last visit. First of all, after how long it took Nervous and I to concieve Odysseus I had come to the conclusion that I was starting to get too old to have children. Nervous was feeling a little disappointed about all that because he wants to have three children graduate from college. I told him that unless we get custody of Mitchell he better be hoping those aliens take him one more time because I didn't think it would happen...me getting pregnant again. So we weren't careful I had abandoned birth control and we were just letting things be. I didn't really want another baby, I am getting on in years. Well, another baby was apparently in our future because not long before Odysseus's first birthday I was puking my guts out again.
I was pretty certain I was pregnant. I had already had two babies so I knew what it felt like to be pregnant but I didn't want to tell Nervous because if I was wrong I knew it would crush him. So when we celebrated Odysseus's birthday I had yet to tell Nervous my news.
We had a great time at the party but Nervous and I were a little, well, nervous about having two toddlers in the house. How in the world were we going to cope with TWO. Oh yeah, here is a picture of Odysseus after he grow up. You can't tell a lot in the picture but he looks a lot like his daddy.
Pretty soon I was entering my second trimester and so I knew I had to tell Nervous I was pregnant. He was estatic and could hardly contain his excitment when my belly "popped."
Our kids were growing up fast so I guess it was okay that we had another little one on the way. It would be my last child and Nervous's too unless he got himself abducted again which he doesn't seem to keen to do. I can't say that I blame him. His alien spawn had her birthday shortly before Odysseus had his.
You know at first I thought Omega looked kind of strange but her looks are starting to grow on me and I think she is a cute kid.
Shortly before Odysseus was to start school I went into labor for my third child. As I went through the contractions and prepared to push out number three I couldn't help but think of when I had Mitchell. Loki hadn't been around and Nervous was the one who helped me deliver my first son. I was glad Nervous was there now but Mitchell should be as well.
It was fitting that my third and final child should be a daughter. We named her Olivia after Nervous's mother.
Olivia wasn't very old when it was time for Odysseus to start school. We didn't have a big party, just the family.
Now that Odysseus is a child I can really see how much he looks like Nervous. Nervous loves that he son looks so much like him and the two of them are really close.
Odysseus and Omega get along well enough but I think they both wish the other was the same gender as them. Sometimes Odysseus teases Omega because she is green but I think deep down they do really love each other. She has been a big help preparing for Olivia's first birthday. Sometimes I think that Omega is trying desparately to get my approval. I don't have a problem with her but she just isn't my daughter, you know.
But anyway, with Omega's help Olivia had a great birthday. She took looks a lot like Nervous.
Omega is thrilled to have a sister and I quite often see her sitting and playing with Olivia. I'm glad that Olivia will have an older sister and an older brother.
Now that my kids are all out of diapers and Olivia is less and less dependent on me I decided that I would open my own business. Nervous thought that this was great and he said he would help in whatever way he could and then we could pass the business on to Odysseus when he grows up. I thought it was a great idea so I opened Circe's Karoke Bar.
It isn't much right now but I hope to really have it hopping before long.
Right now Nervous and I do everything. He greets our guests and I tend the bar. When the kids get older they will help out too. Nervous and I are really looking forward to our business doing well.
But life hasn't been all birthdays and businesses. After a long, long struggle we lost our custody battle over Mitchell. I don't know how any judge could have agreed that Mitchell was better off with crazy Loki than with Nervous and I. I am concerned for my son's well being. I have gotten weekend visitation rights and he does come over on the weekends. That is good for Odysseus because he has wanted a brother. They play and get along great.
But I just can't get over this feeling that Mitchell doesn't want to speak to me or to Nervous. Doesn't he remember that it was Nervous who acted as his father during those early years. I can't imagine what Loki is telling my son about me. But whatever it is, it seems to be working. I am so afraid that will lose him and never get him back. I don't know what to do.
Oh, Circe, I'm so sorry. We had all really been pulling for you to get Mitchell.
Thanks. That means a lot.
And all you can do is love him. Sooner or later he will realize the truth.
At least, I hope so.
So thank you for visiting with us once again. While the insanity continues to sweep the area we here at Area 62 will do are best to stay sane.
