#ignacio robles

sooooo… Maritza was at dinner with a friend in the Spice District. When dinner ended and the friends parted ways, Maritza decided to hit up the bar in front.

Who was bartending? Ignacio Robles, the patriarch of the San Sequoia Robles family.

MIND YOU this was initiated on their own. So, she chats it up with Mr. Robles and they hit it off immediately!

NEXT DAY Ignacio calls to invite my girl out to hang out but really it was a lunch date disguised as a “friends hangout”. THEN, thru decide to make it a date date and stay out til damn near 3 in the morning!

I have Ignacio take her home and they share a kiss.

I’m not against their age difference but I was not expecting this kind of pair AT ALL. Now, they are engaged to marry!

Robles - Ruano Household & family

Okay - I am thoroughly confused.

It starts with Ignacio Robles - the Patriarch. He lives with his daughter Bernice, her husband Ian, their son Aurelio and soon a new bundle of joy on the way.

If there’s one thing about Bernie, she’s tough. So tough, she hasn’t missed a beat - fished her way though this whole pregnancy.

Fishing gives you a lot of time to think; lately she’s been thinking about mending things with her sibling Jay. She’s just not sure how. 

Her sister-in-law Doli tries to keep the lines of communication open between their households, but she doesn’t want to get too involved. She’s loyal to Jay first and foremost, after all.

Which brings us to Bernie’s husband.

I BEG YOU’RE FINEST PARDON - Robles??

If anyone can explain how Bernice‘s husband has the same last name as her family, I would love to hear it.

In the meantime, let’s continue.

Ian doesn’t want to get involved in the drama between Bernie and her sibling - he doesn’t understand that kind of thing, anyway.

Ignacio says ‘family is family’ and leaves it at that.

His sister-in-law Doli makes him slightly uncomfortable due to her past (more on that later), so he keeps his distance. Has he snuck a peek at her OnlySims? No comment.

As for their son Aurelio, he loves Jay and Doli - probably because they’re the most accepting of him and supported him when he came out as ACE.

✏️ When I tell you, their lore is juicy?? I barely had to flesh out anything. 

It’s not that the family didn’t know Jay was different. When they transitioned, however, things got strange.

Not because of that, but the news of Jay marrying a very pregnant Doli was confusing and awkward. When they asked who the father was, Jay simply said, “I am”, and left it at that.

Her niece took that personally; after all, they’re Siblings – she never expected Jay to keep anything that big from her.

They’re cordial when they get together for family dinner, but there’s still some tension there. But Bernie loves them and adores her little niece. 

Okay, maybe it’s some of these things. Maybe it’s all of these things. But… is it ?

Bernie was intrigued by how confident she was - and the way she bought her own house in a sleepy little town and made it home with no apologies? Impressive.

But she just wished Doli would tell her who little Tala’s bio-dad is.

Baby Tala loves all things spooky like her mama - people say babies shouldn’t wear black, but she detests pink and pastels. She loves her stuffed smelly bear and she can’t wait to put out the pumpkins for spooky season. If she’s lucky, maybe her mama and papa will keep the up all year.

✏️ We are SO keeping them around to see how this all pans out.

Ignacio Robles

The beginning of the 1610s brought with it a surprise visit in the form of Samuel arriving in Tartosa. Though Adrian had left for a few towns over in hopes of finding a good match for his granddaughter.

In Mt. Komorebi, Satoshi and Tess welcomed their daughter Mayu as Terric and Deborah learned they were once again expecting.

After many trips and conversations with the head of the Robles household, Adrian and Ignacio agreed that Ignacio's grandson Aurelio and Grace would be wed when they became adults.

When Adrian told Grace of her future husband, Grace was excited. She trusted that her grandfather would find her a suitable match but more importantly she was grateful that she wouldn't be too far from home when she did move. The Robles family lived far enough that travel would be bothersome but not a rare event like attempting to visit family in Windenburg or Henford-on-Bagley.

Frideswide was enjoying her acting troupe which made sure to blow into town every few months or so. When she was home she could be herself rather than fake her identity just to do what she loved. Her brothers also appreciated her arrival since it wouldn't be too long before the family would be separated with Grace's wedding. They felt as if they were counting the days but until then they tried their best to keep up with the extended family through Talia's tome which is how they learned that Parnell had become a grandmother to a little girl and Adrian's niece, Sarah, had remarried that July.
