The Virtual Family Tree

This is the thread to come to for RP in this land of ours that proves we have no life but I just wanted to explain to onlookers what the fuss was about.

I couldn't be bothered explaining this screwed up family in MS paint, it looked way too confusing to me.

So it's like the Brady Bunch really (but renamed the Bourdon Bunch), but really really dysfunctional.

Please correct me if I'm wrong Ma.

So when Rav and Rob were teenagers, (I grimace even thinking about this fictional moment) they played a game, that I never knew existed until I heard about this, at a party, chuck two randoms in a closet and let them go nuts with each other. Oh boy did these two teenagers go nuts to the point where a month or so later, Rob got a phone call from that one night stand at that party (I believe both parties were teenagers as I recall from All About The Music, 16?) saying that she was pregnant with their first child Viking. They got hitched and a year and a half later she fell pregnant again, but with oh, twin girls! Sarah and Melissa (ironic thing is we're two months apart in age so that was a real long labour). So who's the next Bourdon child to be born to Rob? A child that isn't his! bleh

Oh no someone got a bit mischievous and slept with his best friend, Chester, and oh no! The pregnancy test the next month turned out positive! So Rob had to live with the fact that his child wasn't biologically his, so really Meaghan "Fox" Bourdon wasn't his and he threw this in his wife's face consistently. Fox rebels against Rob and goes on a mayhem expedition with her biological father. Sarah's a toughed up Goth who (I quote this directly "wears more black eyeliner than a catwalk supermodel" - Oh sounds like me in real life!), Viking hates his father, while Mel is the suck up and punk of the family, while Rav runs the resturant she co-owns with her husband.

So there are many tangents to the following events, so I'll stick to one that I'm most comfortable with. Ravyn left Rob, who was barely to seen because of his tour commitments and wasn't home a lot (one of the justifications she used for sleeping with Chester) and moved on to a &^%%$$ man named David Draiman, where they lived happily with his other two children (technically but one went somewhere else) Josipa and Jess. Apparently, Jess is Rav's but I fail to see the secret pregnancy because no story has told so.

There are many tangents to the above. Like Sarah falling pregnant to her ex-bf (why does this sound so familiar?) while Rob was around, at the same age as her dear old mother fell pregnant to her brother. Sarah marrying Jack White (ok that's a tangent I like!) and having kids with him, basically, even in MS, Sarah does have a kid to Matt (Ava - remember Rav?! You killed her off! You b*tch!), so either way Sarah learns to eventually keep her legs shut (like her mother, takes ages though).

And I'm just waiting to 'meet' my new stepfather who proves my virtual mother IS a cougar.

Okay. While I'm amused to see we've again made it to the fore of yet another random thread I do have to wonder at what instigated it. That stroll down memory lane was fun but I have to tell you my dear on a few key facts you were off. Let me set the record straight ;)



Rob was a teenager, I wasn't, there's a 3 years age gap here remember? And he wasn't 16, he was in college before you were born, studying of a day, working at the cafe when he could and playing gigs on the weekends and... more than he should have, actually.


Yes I left him. He left once and I took him back then I left him if memory serves me - he did after all serve me with divorce papers, not the other way around. Yes I moved on to David. David and I lasted a total of 13 months before we decided to end it. Contrary to popular belief we're still friends. Sorry Sarah ;) To end speculation as far as I'm concerned Jess is my daughter but technically no not biologically. I wish. Sorry about that Jess. Jess is lucky in that she has the benefit of 2 parents (even if one is a step parent = me) that were actually happy together for the most part - until recently, when I left - But David and I aren't at each other's throats as Rob and I were. Lucky Jess. But Jess I still keep in touch with and am closer to than most of my other "biological" offspring, so is she mine? Yes. And that's all that matters as far as I'm concerned - and for th erecord David doesn't seem to mind that we stay friends, so that's nice of him *lol* (Like Jess would listen to him anyway I think ;) She's as stubborn as the rest of us). There was talk David had another child, a son named Jon(tu?) but we didn't associate much. I'm not 100 percent sure on this point, not that it matters anymore now we're officially separated.


Now, Jared.Yes it's true there's 10 years between us. I am a cougar. No we are not married. No I doubt we'll ever be married. There's no kids and no plans for kids. Sorry to ruin your fun there, we're just good friends. Even if he is almost the same age as my eldest. But I've had about as much fun as I can stand with (virtual) husbands for one lifetime. The good part is he's not a musician. And he doesn't know Rob. And he doesn't know David. It's a clean slate. So Rav is happy at last.


We'll see how long that lasts wink.gif


Hope that answers your questions, daught, and... any one else who happens to be reading this.

Well that was amusing *lol* My two cents would be to add that yes, there was a son, because I have a brother. Apparently. Unless maybe I adopted him? I'm not sure how that worked out exactly, okay? Hahah. But he's there in some capacity; I claim him.

Highly unlikely. I didn't know I had a twin sister until she came to me and called me her twin. Then I got told I had MORE siblings and it hasn't stopped.

And what brought it on? My new stepsibling and how half of Quills (actually a majority) doesn't know what was written in MS and AATM etc.

^ Then post them here, I don't care. I'm just too lazy to copy them across, knowing one day LPF will completely go under and the links will be useless *shrugs*

LOL @ the stories it triggered amongst all of us. OMG... memories huh? *nostalgic smile*

*shakes head* I'm not sure I wish I was around back then or not. The only problem is that if I had been, I wouldn't be David's, and then how would I justify J2K's existence? Oh - same way I am now, half-*ssedly *lol* For the record let's just say he was staying with his\our mother (whoever the hell that is) and that's why Rav didn't know about him until recently. Now, if a story is required to make it all official, you's just outta luck.

Wait actually maybe over Thanksgiving break ... no, no, that's filling up too quicky already and it's only a week. Shut up, voices.

*whistles*

You think I have the energy/time to copy the stories over? You don't know me that well. Gotta love the lazy Bourdon genes.

isn't this why we named ourselves and the thread that mum wrote the "discombobulated family" thread?

^ This would be true - but that was not the name I gave it. I think that was actually you Foxxy, who called it that, wasn't it? You or Mel - after the sessions of attacking each other and Vi (and Rob) in the spam room with copius amounts of duct tape...?


And agreed Jess (regarding Lupe's post). If there's a family out there in reality that's like ours was in the virtual realms then that's just plain old scary!!
