Thread: The New Kid-Hareem/Moon

Alexei chuckled a little. you should be glad of that at least. he pointed out. imagine not being able to do anything by yourself, not even go to the bathroom, walking into town, eat dinner in a restaurant without having some whiny slut draping herself across some part of your body, usually your arm or your lap. he stated. it's infuriating is what it is! i don't mind them being attracted to me, as annoying as THAT is considering they don't even KNOW me... it's when they start interfering with everything i do that gets frustrating. Alexei admitted with a sigh. i wonder if they'll still like me when they realize i don't even own a TV? he muttered with a sly grin. yep! the Clan. we uphold old traditions, as i said. he stated with a chuckle. we have certain rules, and... abilities, that are only passed from father to son. he admitted. even the 'outsiders' we Marry don't often get the skills that we practice so hard at. he admitted. not to mention the recipes we cook with and the abilities that we are born with. he admitted with a nod offering the other a grin. we have to protect our Family after all. he admitted before laughing a little. it doesn't get THAT cold you know. just during the winter. the summer months are chilly, but they do warm up to the fifties and such. green things even grow. he admitted with a nod. oh yeah! have to hunt to survive. the more meat we can get during the hunting seasons, the better chances we have at surviving all year around. not to mention gathering wild foods like berries, roots, tubers, seafood, and other such things. that's one of the things we're trained at since we're very young, is how to provide for the Clan. we start with gathering, and we're taught how to hunt as we grow older. we go on our first hunt at the age of thirteen, and from that point on, you are no longer a child. you are a full member of the clan, and this have the responsibility of one. he grinned. and then at seventeen, sometimes eighteen, you go out to make your mark on the world and decide what you want to do with your life. for example, if i decide my Life Path is away from the Clan, then the duty as Eldest, or Heir, will fall to my brother, the second eldest. of all of my brothers decide that they do not want to rule the Clan, then it falls to the Eldest nephew of the second eldest Nephew... it's, complicated really. he admitted before grinning at Reno. i think you'd hate staying with the Clan if i'm being honest. he admitted with a chuckle. for one thing we all bathe together. for another thing even a guest is expected to work for their meals. he admitted with a small chuckle. you would probobly end up working with the women because you don't know whats safe to eat and what isn't. so you'd be doing house chores and such. Women can become hunters and gatherers of course, but most of them prefer to do the household things, like cooking, cleaning, sewing, bossing the men about and the like. he snickered. as much as Father denies it, Mother is just as much in charge of the Clan as he is. he admitted with a laugh. she can beat him up with nothing more than her sharp tongue and a stick! he's so whipped! Alexei grinned with a mischievous twinkle in his eyes. it's funny to watch them fight, because mother always wins... and you always know when they got into a fight, because he's always sleeping on the couch.
