73 Flying toddler

Screenshot-x2129

Shaoran has a lot of fun playing with Randolph with the dollhouse.

Screenshot-x2130

It´s actually kind of sad, that only childish sims can do that.

Screenshot-x2132

Shaoran really loves his little… very distant relative.

Screenshot-x2133

Gabby: Whyyyyy do I feel so bad?

It´s a secret. But you will know soon.

Screenshot-x2134

Gabby: You´re mean. ´scuse me, gotta barf.

Screenshot-x2135

Gabby: Oh, this is why!

Screenshot-x2136

Pauline visits Jovan and spends the night.

Screenshot-x2137

And Star is still alive.

Screenshot-x2138

Randolph: This OK? It´s a ghostie.

He won´t drop you.

Screenshot-x2139

Randolph: Really?

Promise.

Screenshot-x2140

Randolph: OK, then.

Screenshot-x2141

Randolph: Wheeeeeeeee! I´m flying!

Star: Hello, dear!

Screenshot-x2142

Randolph: Again!

He is the first toddler who ever was picked up by a ghost.

Screenshot-x2143

Child-gnome grew up to a grumpy teenager!

Screenshot-x2144

Uhm, Miles, I think you are doing it wrong.

Screenshot-x2145

Miles: What? I repaired it, didn´t I?

See all this ghosts out at daytime? I ended up reseting them one by one.

Screenshot-x2146

Gabby is a very happy pregnant sim.

Screenshot-x2147

The kitchen counter seems to be hungry today.

Screenshot-x2148

And Gabby is also the most stylish pregnant sim I ever had.

I alway let them choose their preggo clothes themselves, because I think, it´s funny.

Screenshot-x2149

I love her!

Screenshot-x2150

The party is for this little boy.

Screenshot-x2151

This toddler suit is adorable.

Screenshot-x2152

The moment I click on the cake, Gabby goes into labour.

Screenshot-x2153

So I sit and hold my breath, while my game tries to handle two major events at the same time.

Screenshot-x2155

I didn´t dare to move the camera so there´s no shot of Randolph growing up. He did so very well, I think. He rolled computer whizz.

I also missed the shot of little Catherine being born, which is a shame.

Because she´s not only a vampire, brave and loves the heat…

Screenshot-x2156

… she´s also GREEN! A nearly fluorescent neon-green.

*Glares at parents*

*Drags Miles into CAS*

Turns out, Miles skintone is on the blue scale. Combined with Gabby´s tone and the vampire glow she´s… well, neon-green.

Screenshot-x2157

Pauline: She´s adorable, that´s what she is!

Yeah, okay, that as well.

72 Birthdays and sauna fail

Screenshot-x2086

Oh, hey, Fiona, feeling sick?

Fiona: Yeah, must´ve been something I ate.

Screenshot-x2087

Fiona: Oh, no, actually I´m totally knocked up. How nice!

Congratulations.

Screenshot-x2088

I don´t care much for military men, but Miles looks pretty snazzy in his uniform.

Screenshot-x2089

Gabby has an open vendetta with the science machine and sabotages it every opportunity she gets. Then she wishes to repair it. Sigh.

Screenshot-x2090

Oh, hi Steven!

Screenshot-x2091

I staged this, but isn´t it totally cute??

Screenshot-x2092

It´s Miles adult birthday.

And the ghosts are out at daytime. Yay.

Screenshot-x2094

I didn´t take a picture, but he pretty much looks the same. Midlife-crisis, though.

Screenshot-x2095

This good boy doesn´t have one.

Screenshot-x2096

But this is what he does, when I send him to the gym.

Screenshot-x2097

Something wrong, Fi?

Fiona: This is very annoying!

Screenshot-x2098

And here we have little Randolph. He rolls heavy sleeper and insane. Actually, he´s my first insane sim! How exciting!

He´s also a witch.

Screenshot-x2099

Miles wishes for a makeover. I thought, it would be cool if Kym would do it, but he´s already retired.

Screenshot-x2100

But this guy also does a good job.

Screenshot-x2101

I don´t know, if this is cute or terrifying.

Screenshot-x2105

I have gnome spawn! Never happened before, even if there are tons of gnomes creeping around.

Screenshot-x2106

Pauline and Steven still jam together.

Screenshot-x2107

Fiona beats up Miles. Those two really love to hate each other.

Screenshot-x2108

Little Randolph has his first birthday!

Screenshot-x2109

Uhm, yes. That´s Teagan´s hair and… Eddy´s eyes? Perhaps?

His face is… interesting. Like his mom´s was.

Screenshot-x2110

Randolph: She dozzn´ like me!

Jaron: There, there! You´re a beautiful little boy!

Screenshot-x2111

Randolph: Zis man is nize!

He is! And I do like you!

Screenshot-x2112

Randolph: Uncle Jawon, zere are loz of ghosties!

Yeah. The ghosts are getting a bit annoying.

Screenshot-x2113

Rowan´s elderly wife dies, while he is at the party.

Rowan: My heart is broken! Lovely party, though!

Screenshot-x2114

I made Eddy put his son into bed. This guy doesn´t do anything with him.

Screenshot-x2115

Oh, and Fiona als has a birthday.

Screenshot-x2116

Nice eyeroll, dear.

Screenshot-x2119

Oh, come on, I didn´t mean it like that. Show your pretty face!

Fiona: No. You can look at my tatoo that I got ages ago.

Screenshot-x2118

Pauline gets kidnapped again. The aliens sure like her.

Pauline: But I don´t like THEM!

Screenshot-x2120

Joe and Nathan! Hi there!

Screenshot-x2121

Kym visites for one reason or other and Gabby tries her vampire hypnotism on him.

Screenshot-x2122

He then flirts with her, which Miles totally gets the wrong way.

Screenshot-x2123

Gabby: It´s not my fault! I didn´t even accept his flirt!

Screenshot-x2124

Miles: I´m not sure about that.

Oh, he wished for facial hair. I think, it suits him.

Screenshot-x2125

They made up and I let them try the sauna, because I wanted to test the try for boy/girl option.

Screenshot-x2126

AND IT TOTALLY DIDN´T WORK!

Screenshot-x2127

It was such a pain to even make them sit at the same time to start the interaction, because the kept jumping up to do random stuff. Also, it was daytime, so Gabby started to sizzle.

Screenshot-x2128

And she didn´t even get pregnant! I tried six times in total, and it just didn´t work.

They had shower wohoo the next day and there were chimes.

Otherwise the sauna works just fine. Hmph.

71 Training a ghost

Screenshot-x2046

Everyone loves the sleeping bag.

Screenshot-x2048

Jaron is still pretty flexible in his old age. Although I´m a bit confused, that my fairies are actually skating and not just flying round the rink.

Screenshot-x2050

Pauline meets Rowan Orange at the festival and decides to watch the stars with him.

Screenshot-x2051

Rowan is a berry fairy from one of my other saves, whom I plopped in town long ago as a potential spouse for Kisa. They didn´t get along and he kinda hovers at the back of most of the relationship panels since then. He also refuses to produce offspring, by always marrying old women. As a matter of fact, he has a wife at the moment.

Screenshot-x2052

And Pauline has Javon.

Screenshot-x2054

Who just reaches his lifetimewish of golden tongue, golden fingers in some tiny bathroom.

Screenshot-x2055

I clicked on Miles stressed moodlet. I guess, he still carries a torch for Shaoran. In any case, he wants some risky shower-wohoo.

Miles: Hey, how about some fun in the shower?

Screenshot-x2056

Shaoran: Uuhh…. you know, I have a girlfriend? And what about that nice vampire girl you met at university?

Star: *totally ignores the not-quite-incest in front of her.*

Anyway, I cancelled the action.

Miles: Rude!

Go play some videogames or something.

Screenshot-x2057

Steven argues with the rooster.

Screenshot-x2058

It´s snowflake day! And look, Teagan is glowing, meaning she reached her lifetime wish of being empress of evil, all on her own. You go, Teagan!

Teagan: Well, I would go, but that cat is in my way!

Screenshot-x2059

Kisa and Liang only come for the comfy beds.

Screenshot-x2060

 

Screenshot-x2061

Don´t you like your present, Teagan?

Teagan: As if I need a chess table!

Screenshot-x2062

And here´s Rowan again.

Screenshot-x2063

And Jaron!

Screenshot-x2064

And Kym!

Screenshot-x2065

This girl is cute. Too bad, I have no children her age right now.

Screenshot-x2066

And after the last guest leaves, Steven decides to go as well.

Screenshot-x2067

 

Screenshot-x2068

While Shaoran has is birthday in the next room. Forgot about that one.

Screenshot-x2069

Eddy: This is like, totally uncool!

Screenshot-x2070

Steven changes his mind (probably wants to celebrate Shaoran´s birthday), so Grimmy has to use some force.

Screenshot-x2071

And Shaoran reaches middle age.

Shaoran: Wow. Are those wrinkles?

Screenshot-x2072

Grimmy decides to join the party.

Screenshot-x2073

Grimmy: FELICITATION!

Shaoran: Dude, really? Someone just died.

Screenshot-x2074

Grimy: MY BAD. DOES IT HELP IF I CLEAN THE DISHES?

Shaoran: NO!

Screenshot-x2075

Grimy: GOOD THING, I´M MY OWN BOSS. KINDA MESSED THIS ONE UP.

Screenshot-x2076

So, Star is the last one of the old gang.

Screenshot-x2077

Look, who´s here! (Well, she kinda already photobombed Steven´s passing). Moving Gabby Ahmed in gave me a bit of a headache. She left, right after she arrived and I couldn´t invite her back , because the game insisted, she was still there. So I quit without saving and kidnapped her the moment she set foot on the lot.

Anyway. Gabby Ahmed is a natural cook, absent-minded, has a green thumb, is a technophob and family oriented. Her LTW is the culinary librarian. A absent-minded vampire, that should be fun…

Screenshot-x2078

She´s also adorable and totally smitten with Miles.

Screenshot-x2079

 

Screenshot-x2080

And hungry.

Screenshot-x2081

 

Screenshot-x2082

I like vampires. As long as they don´t insist on staying in the sun all the time.

Screenshot-x2083

Pauline tries to comfort Star.

Screenshot-x2084

Miles is angry.

Screenshot-x2085

And this made me laugh out loud.

70 Frozen

Screenshot-x2018

Last time Joe died and everyone is sad.

Screenshot-x2019

He was friends with nearly everyone.

Screenshot-x2020

 

Screenshot-x2021

But we have to think of the next generation, so Fiona invited Eddy Mullis from university. I really tried working with the game mechanics, and everything went fine, until Fiona asked him to move in. He totally agreed and then Fiona threw a script error and we were back to step one. So I added him with mastercontroler. I don´t think, I would be playing this game anymore, if not for those modders.

Screenshot-x2023

So, Eddy is a loner, a virtuoso, a perfectionist, artistic and a vegetarian. His lifetime wish is Hit Movie Composer. Time to get a job.

Screenshot-x2024

Shaoran meets his mum at the library and has a sparring match.

Screenshot-x2025

I think, Kiso goes easy on him.

Screenshot-x2026

She still wins.

Screenshot-x2027

Miles is there as well. I don´t know, why he´s wearing his pyjamas. He´s not insane.

Miles: It´s comfy.

It´s winter and you are not wearing shoes. Just saying.

Screenshot-x2028

Oh, hi, Joe! You look really good there.

Joe: Why, thank you!

Screenshot-x2029

Miles thinks a lot about vampires lately. We will invite her soon…ish.

Screenshot-x2030

Shaoran doesn´t have a work related LTW, and he wished to become an author. So he´s now a self-employed author and starts his first book.

Screenshot-x2031

Kym became old as well. He´s a sweet old man.

Screenshot-x2032

Pauline has still a high relationship with him.

Screenshot-x2033

So she can take a dna-sample. I don´t think, I will do anything with it, but the option was there, so…

Screenshot-x2035

Shaoran manages to get frozen outside. Star has to warm him up.

Screenshot-x2036

He´s still blue. What were you thinking, young man??

Shaoran: Uhm…

Screenshot-x2039

The aliens kidnap Pauline.

Screenshot-x2041

Makes for a cool picture, though.

Screenshot-x2044

Pauline: I really don´t like her!

Understandable.

Screenshot-x2045

Pauline: Dad! The aliens did THINGS to me!

Steven: There, there! It happens to most of us.

Being a sim must be really weird sometimes.

69 More university

Screenshot-x1989

And we are back at university. Miles and Fiona continue studying technology and business, Shaoran starts his second degree, science and medicine. And Jovan trails along to study some fine arts.

Screenshot-x1990

Also, it would be nice, if Miles were to find his significant other at university, so he tests his irresistable trait. She isn´t interested, though.

Screenshot-x1991

Shaoran on the other hand is thinking of his girlfriend, which is cute.

Screenshot-x1992

How about a fairy? No?

Screenshot-x1993

Miles prefers to use the megaphone, that somehow appeared in his inventory and rant about something.

Fellow student: Dude, can you shut up? I´m dead on my feet here!

Screenshot-x1994

Shaoran and Fiona both wanted to go bowling, so here we are!

Screenshot-x1995

Yeah, really good idea. This whole generation is clumsy.

But I found someone. Miles, come here, quick!

Screenshot-x1996

Miles: What? I was working out! This athletic skill won´t grow on his own!

Talk to this nice young woman, please.

Screenshot-x1997

Her name is Gabby Ahmed and she´s a vampire in my game. They danced until they were friends, then she had to leave in a hurry. But we´ll see her again, I think.

Screenshot-x1998

And it´s graduation day!

Screenshot-x1999

Everyone got their degree!

Screenshot-x2000

Not everyone chose the right attire, though.

Screenshot-x2001

Two down, one to go! But it may take a while.

Screenshot-x2003

And we are back! Where people play baseball in the snow in their swimwear. Home, sweet home.

Screenshot-x2004

Joe and Star are stir-crazy, so they visit the park. And awwww… There´s Jaron, all old!

Screenshot-x2005

Have a winter jacket, dear! It´s cold.

Screenshot-x2006

Amber is there as well.

Screenshot-x2007

Joe dies the moment he comes home.

Screenshot-x2008

Joe: This is kind of awkward. Where is he?

Stuck at the door, I think.

Screenshot-x2009

Ah, found a way. Stupid routing.

Screenshot-x2013

And Joe´s so ready to go. It seems longer, with university and all, but he outlived his husband for about 10 sim-days, and never really recovered from his death. That was a sad bundle of pixles moping around.

Screenshot-x2016

Grimmy hangs around for a while to diss some gnomes. They are indeed numerous and creepy.

Screenshot-x2017

After chatting with Pauline, he leaves.

Screenshot-p91

I honestly couldn´t find a picture of Joe alone. It´s just as well, I think.

Goodbye, friendly Joe with the brightest eyes I´ve ever seen on a sim.

68 Gotta be quick to get some cake!

Screenshot-x1957

We are back from university! Shaoran visits his grandparents.

Shaoran: Did I interrupt something?

Screenshot-x1956

Amber: Kids these days!

Screenshot-x1958

They then have a sparring match. Shaoran loses.

Screenshot-x1959

I bought this hair with the hat just for Fiona. You look fabulous, dear!

Fiona: I do!

Screenshot-x1960

It´s Pauline´s elder birthday. Time flies.

Screenshot-x1961

 

Screenshot-x1962

 

Screenshot-x1963

Pauline: Eh, I´m all wrinkly!

Your boyfriend doesn´t seem to mind.

Screenshot-x1964

Pauline and her boys secure some cake and the couch while the others route-fail.

Screenshot-x1965

Pauline: Good thing, we were quick, huh?

Jovan and Miles: Jep!

Screenshot-x1967

Shaoran catches himself a girlfriend.

Screenshot-x1969

Macella Gallgher-Sackholme-Mithrilen is a perfectionist, a loser, excitable, eccentric and athletic. She managed to get involved with a Landgraab while we were at university, but is happy to let him go. She also has a teenage son, who was imported with her from Dragon Valley. His father seems to be lost in the void.

Screenshot-x1971

She won´t move in for now (gotta raise that son), but they can have some fun.

Screenshot-x1968a

Oh. Yes, I miss him, too.

Screenshot-x1966

Jovan was due to age up that day, so Pauline asked him to stay the night. When I checked him out before make-over, I discovered that he was homeless at the moment. Can´t imagine, why, but we have a free spot at the house…

Screenshot-x1972

We have a lot of gnomes. And look! It´s a graduation gnome!

Screenshot-x1974

Fiona and Shaoran go to a costume party at Liang and Kisa´s house. They meet Teagan.

Screenshot-x1975

Like mother, like daughter, or something.

Screenshot-x1976

I don´t know, why they are living in this dump. I surely didn´t put them there. And why all these dragons?

Screenshot-x1977

Pauline rolled a wish to retire.

Screenshot-x1978

OK, why not?

Screenshot-x1980

Impromptu party!

Screenshot-x1982

Fiona uses the opportunity to brain Joe with her sign. I saw that, young lady!

Screenshot-x1983

Fiona: And again!

Stop it!

Screenshot-x1984

Nathan is out this night and I nudged Joe a bit.

Screenshot-x1985

 

Screenshot-x1986

 

Screenshot-x1987

 

Screenshot-x1988

And a cute shot of Miles and Susan, before we are off, to study some more.

67 University

Screenshot-x1910

Pauline isn´t tired, so she tries the science machine.

Screenshot-x1911

It´s pretty cool.

Screenshot-x1912

It´s the elusive professor Wade Anthony. He doesn´t like to be photographed.

Screenshot-x1913

Shaoran meets Che Justice in his class.

Why the long face, sweetie?

Shaoran: Studying is hard!

Well, chin up, you need three degrees for your LTW.

Shaoran: Meh.

Screenshot-x1914

Pauline is having fun. I sent her to have the very expensive spa-treating (the one for 7500,-), and now the relaxed moodlet prevents her from getting stressed. Gonna do that for all of them next time.

Screenshot-x1915

Personally, I wouldn´t trust that machine.

Screenshot-x1919

Shaoran draws, while his classmates are chatting in the bushes.

Screenshot-x1920

Shaoran: It´s a kitten!

… I`M VERY PROUD OF YOU, KEEP GOING!

Screenshot-x1921

Fiona´s presentation seems a bit manic.

Screenshot-x1922

Do you hate studying as well, Miles?

Miles: No, but I can´t concentrate with that snoring behind me!

Screenshot-x1923

Pauline scans a pomgranate.

Screenshot-x1924

Pauline: This is making no sense whatsoever!

Uhm… I´m sorry?

Screenshot-x1925

There´s a swimming pool with a barista bar right next to the dorm. Fiona tests the food.

Screenshot-x1926

Then she meets Eddy Mullis in the gym. We like.

Screenshot-x1927

I then let her alone for a minute.

Screenshot-x1928

OK, we have no time for this.

Screenshot-x1929

This is better.

Screenshot-x1930

And this is supposed to be a dip kiss. Something went wrong.

Guy-in-undies: Mh-mh, very interesting technique.

Screenshot-x1931

Fiona: So, we just met, but wanna be my boyfriend?

Eddy: Of course!

Guy-in-undies: I don´t approve.

Screenshot-x1932

Guy-in-undies: Microscope! The best thing ever!

Screenshot-x1933

They then watch the stars.

Screenshot-x1935

Pauline is pulling the lever of doom!

Screenshot-x1936

I thought my monitor was broken.

Screenshot-x1937

Pauline?

Screenshot-x1938

Uhm… Pauline?

Screenshot-x1939

Pauline: Bzzzzzzt!

Ah. Hive mind. Do go on.

Screenshot-x1940

She has a very productive afternoon.

Screenshot-x1941

I gave Shaoran a play chest to help with the stress.

Screenshot-x1942

Fiona prefers to play pool. Or not.

Screenshot-x1943

And Miles reads.

Screenshot-x1944

It´s Liz Tarry. Do you want to meet a nice sim named Miles?

Liz: No time. Busy.

And I never saw her again.

Screenshot-x1945

The employees at the comic shop are slacking a bit.

Screenshot-x1946

Fiona was playing with Minty when I called her home. Apparantly, dragons and brooms don´t mix.

Screenshot-x1947

This doesn´t look much better.

Screenshot-x1948

It´s graduation day! Pauline gets her major in science and the additional trait handy.

Screenshot-x1949

Fiona gets good grades, but has to do another term.

Screenshot-x1950

Shaoran gets his major in arts and the additional trait artistic.

Screenshot-x1951

And Miles gets also good grades and has to do a second term, like Fiona.

Screenshot-x1952

Pauline: That was fun, huh?

Miles: Yes, but we didn´t see a single plant-sim.

Screenshot-x1953

There is one! On the last day, when no one can interact with her. Sigh.

Screenshot-x1954

Pauline: HAH!

Screenshot-x1955

Shaoran: I have to do two more…

Oh, but you love university!

(He does. And for a childish sim, he really has a lot of discipline, always learning on his own. I, on the other hand do not love university. It´s boring as hell. The things I do for my sims…)

66 Don´t diss the rooster

Screenshot-x1873

The house is still in a tizzy about Nathan´s death.

*sniffle*

Screenshot-x1874

I saw Joe taking a lot of selfies and began pulling out photos out of people´s cameras and inventories. I think, they are neat!

Screenshot-x1876

Pauline is now a mad scientist and can do experiments.

Screenshot-x1877

It gives that pouf some kind of nice moodlet. Well, it gives the sim, that sits on it the moodlet. I think. Perhaps the pouf is now a very happy pouf all the time.

Screenshot-x1889

Miles has a fight with the rooster.

Screenshot-x1890

He wins for a change! He loses most of his fights.

Screenshot-x1891

Miles: And stay inside!

Don´t harass the poultry, please.

Screenshot-x1892

Shaoran has a deluxe foot massage.

Screenshot-x1893

And promptly falls asleep.

Screenshot-x1894

I missed having a witch in the house, so…

Screenshot-x1895

… Fiona is our new one. It´s cute, that she chose this spot for tranformation.

Screenshot-x1896

Fiona: This is cool…

Screenshot-x1897

Poisoned apple. She´ll be a menace!

Fiona: Oh, yes!

Screenshot-x1898

Poor Joe gets a bit loopy with grieve and old age. He inherited Paul´s walking stick with Nathan´s inventory, and now often just stands around and „rants at world“ or something.

Screenshot-x1899

Oh, hi Nathan! I missed you!

Sadly, they don´t interact on their own.

Screenshot-x1901

Fiona wished for a tatoo. She is much more relaxed than Violetta was.

And I did not take a picture. It´s on her lower back, so it will take a while until it is revealed.

Screenshot-x1902

In the meantime we´ll go to university!

Screenshot-x1904

I chose a dorm. More fun with uncontrollable sims running around.

Screenshot-x1905

Everyone heartfarted everyone. Even my guys each other. Sigh.

Screenshot-x1906

Group conversation.

Screenshot-x1907

Miles says something stupid. His mom is embarassed.

Screenshot-x1908

The family gathers at the tv. I think it´s cute.

Screenshot-x1909

Shaoran, who needs three diplomas for his LTW, starts with fine art. Fiona with business, because she wants to become the empress of evil, and Miles with technology, so he can become an astronaut. Pauline studies science and medicine. She´s already done with her LTW and near elder stage, I wanted to do some more with her.

So, let´s study hard!
