Fanon:Jacob Tinsley

Jacob Andrew Tinsley is a sim attending college at Académie Le Tour. He is the son of Christina Holland and Adrian Tinsley, and the twin brother of Kevin Tinsley. He is also Eileen Tinsley’s cousin.

He is in a relationship with Kendra Aubrey.

Early Life
Jacob was born in Desiderata Valley to his parents Adrian Tinsley and Christina Holland, along with his twin brother, Kevin. Jacob was described as an intelligent kid although he was really shy. Jacob’s parents married a few months prior to his birth, although they had an unstable relationship. They thought constantly and subsequently divorced when Jacob and Kevin were around 7 years old.

Teen Years
Christina and Adrian continued to argue over custody of their two children. Jacob and his mother began to grow more distant. He also never pursued any relationships in high school, being too scared from his parents’ divorce to do so.

Jacob decided to attend Sim State University with his brother Kevin.

College Years
Jacob arrived at college with Kevin, and soon declared the physics major.

He reached out to his cousin, Eileen, for advice about college. This prompted the two to become close, almost like brother and sister. That also caused him to reexamine his views towards relationships; Auntie Bev and uncle George were still going strong. Eileen and her boyfriend were happy together, and were still good friends after they split. About halfway through sophomore year, Jacob took the hour-long cab ride to Académie Le Tour to visit Eileen. It was during that visit he met Kendra Aubrey. The two hit it off and soon began a long-distance relationship. Although this was new to him, he knew then that he found the woman of his dreams.

As his relationship with Kendra progressed, the two learned their lives were more intermingled than they first thought. She dated a man named Dalton Chandler, who just so happened to be Eileen’s ex as well. Kendra figured this, due to Jacob and Eileen having the same last name and a similar appearance. When junior year came, Jacob later found out that Dalton and Eileen got back together. While this made his relationship with Kendra slightly awkward at first, they continued seeing each other. Now that she was completely over Dalton, all the drama with her and Eileen was ancient history.
