Chapter Ten – Realistic Fear

Right so Serafina’s girls are teenagers, Cassie is pregnant, Lydia and Isadora should finish up their LTW, Gabi and Searfina are dead and Ty is annoying me.

From L>R we have Raya, Lydia, Cassie (pregnant) and Ty, Isadora and Sitting is Chloe. They are all 3rd Generations. All 5 Grandchildren of Hayden.

Right so my household elders are dead. I am sad but glad. Cassie actually took the master bedroom without me telling her. The ghosts must have been in her bed some night. I have yet to change the colour. I did put I an en-suite in, but all I did at the time was take a chunk out of their bedroom, instead of putting it on the side. The bedroom is stuck inbetween the nursery and the children room (the only room with single beds) I am going to have to have a good look at the house and change it around a bit. So I said in my opening that Ty might die. The reason being that he keeps fighting with Cassie. I never get there quick enough to see what’s going on. Also he rolled the “have a boy” wish, which is just soo not going to happen.
I don’t think this post is going to be very exciting, not that mine are terribly excititng anyway, it’s just going to be about skills and promotions. It’s all about finishing up their LTW.

1. Raya will bring up her handiness in preperation for her Career.
2. Chloe will focus on athletic in prep for her career.
3. Isadora will just keep playing matches and going to work.
4. Lydia will be playing her guitar and read charisma books.

Well it’s still Sunday and Chloe brought her athletic from 1 to 2 then from 2 to 3 and then from 3 to 4. Raya brought her handiness up to 4 and then to 5.So I guess my plan is going well. It’s always easy when I just start. Raya also brings her charisma up to 2.

 I know how important charisma is in the hunt for a husband. I realised by sending Lydia to the park and playing the guitar that she would build relationships with the people watching her.

She became best friends with two strangers this way, if I had known this I would have practiced everyday in the park. It would have made the charisma skill easier. This was proberly the whole point of the combination for the LTW. She brought her guitar up to 9. She will have this mastered real quick. Once that she can have her pick from her lovely new friends and move out after she finishes up the charisma.

Isadora earned a promotion to “Starter” with a bonus of 936.

Which means that game season will start. Next day actually she has her first match, the score was “Home 9, Away 2″ that’s means we won. Monday morning and Ty brings his writing up to 8, well he did get up early. This should help his career. At 2.44pm, I am told that the baby is coming.

(I got told twice as my power went, some idiot cut a hard line and the whole of my home town was without electricty. So I got to do Monday twice.)

Anyway, she has a baby girl, I send her away from everyone to have her baby in peace. I call her “River”, after River from the series “Firefly”. The character was able to see glimpse’s of terrible things that happened and were going to happen. So she was a future version of the Iliad’s Cassandra, who Cassie is named after, so therefore Cassandra’s daughter should be called it. Shouldn’t she? She is “artistic” and “excitable“. Her favourites are kids music, pancakes, and the colour Aqua. Next out, yes two, is “Phoneix”, ok ok I can give you tonnes of reason (excuses) why I choose this, but after I named River, only one name popped into my head. Phoneix is “insane” like her father and “loves the outdoors“. Her favourites are Latin music, cookies and Sea-foam (White). Phoneix is appropiate anyway as she is red skined, they are my first set of red twins.

One is bound to be pretty enough to be my heir. Though Malcolms fat cheeks could come through. Just incase, I am going to make sure Isadora Meets a nice good looking boy. She should be engaed, ready and waiting. Anyway, Cassie has 2 daughters, red skinned, with not so bad traits, all is going the right way.
That day Lydia invites over Horace, he is the one that I have picked for her. They are already best friends, even though she has never talked to him. He is “artistic, excitable, slob, and absent minded“. Again I don’t find out the 5th. She asked him to go steady. He’s a lovely fella.
That night Hayden looked after a crying River. She was family orientated, I will remember to keep all ghosts with that trait. If they are going to look after children during the night.

Ty doesn’t pay her new daughters any attention. Improving his writing skill has paid off though, as Ty has been Promoted to “Weather Man” no reports for this one. Wahey! Looking at his career page, he needs charisma.

Computer lets me know its Isadoras birthday in a few days.

Lydia mastered her guitar today.

She “wanted” to have 6 people watch her, so I sent her to the park and once the girls were finished school and Ty was finished work, I sent them all to the park to watch her too. So between the randoms and her family she more than managed it. They all saw her master it.

• Lydia brings her charisma up to 8 and later onto 9.
• Cassie brings her cooking up to 5
• Ty brings his painting up to 8 paintig a fabulous lady in a red dress. I liked it so much, I hang it over my master bed.
• Ty also brings his writing up to 9.
• Cassie mastered her gardening skill.

I will have Raya take over the garden now that cassie is done with it. (As soon as she finishes her handiness) Speaking of which it’s now at 6 and then 7. Raya also brings up her charisma up to 3 then 4 just from having a chat on the phone.

Lana died today, I don’t know when it happened. I got rid of the house phone when there were 5 calls a night telling me people were dying. I know it happened today as I tryed to invite her over yesterday and she was busy.

It’s going to be Lydia’s, Chloe’s, and Raya’s birthday in a few days. Lydia invites Horace over again. Lydia and Horace woohoo and chat.

The chat that they had helped Lydia master her Charisma which completed her LTW.

My plan of having her marry and move out are not so plesent to me anymore. Her LTP is at 97,962. She needs to get another 2000 LTP’s. She brings her athletic up to 7 as per her wishes.

Isadora was promoted to Team captain.

She had a match today, she won, Home 14 / Away 0. Still on athletic, Chloe gets her athletic up to 5.

Ty gets promoted to Lead Reporter, which is number 8 and a nice little bonus of 3248.

This lets me fix the master bedroom ensuite. Ty also brings his charisma up to 6 at home after work.

Lydia falls into the pool and is very distressed. Especially since she is a hyrophophic.

Opps. She drowned, and before she could even become an adult in two days.

Doesnt she make a very pretty blue ghost. Blue was her favourite colour and being a hydophobic, it was too good to pass up. She reached her LTW, she reached 100,000 LTP, she got her portraits. What was left? Live fast, die young and leave a good looking corps behind.

Despite Lydia dieing at 1am this morning, we threw a party for River and Phoneix for 5pm tonight. Making it formal.
Chloe’s handiness is now at 2. Since Raya and Chloe are aging up tomo, I let them skip school and bring up some skills. ( I won’t waste the day)
Raya and Chloe’s athletic are both up at 6.
Raya also bring her handiness up to 9. She won’t have mastered it before she becomes an adult, but we are pretty darn close. So despite the death this morning, we had the party for River and Phoneix. Isadora brings her cooking up to 5 getting food ready for the party. River has her birthday first.

I ended up missing Phoneix age-up as no1 would go get her. (Missing it as in no1 brought her to the cake)

Raya also brought her charisma up to 5 talking to Lyle Condon who is green thumped like her and handy, he might be end up working in the science career with her. Friday and it’s Chloes and Raya birthday to young adults and Isadoras birthday to adult. The toddlers need to be taught everything and no1 is “family orienatated”. So it will be slow. Cassie starts by teaching phoneix to walk while River learns from the Peg Box.

After Phoneix learns to walk, Isadora reads her a book and ends up being 2 hours late for work.

 It’s ok though as she was still promoted to League MVP.

River brings her peg box to 3.

Next day we throw another party, for the older twins birthday.

Raya ages up and gets the “Dare Devil” trait.

I then accidently age up Eileen Bakshi into elder.

Chloe ages-up and gets the Hopeless-Romantic trait.

Lastly Isadora ages-up to Adult.

Ty brings his charisma up to 7 at the party. Chloe reads to Phoneix and everyone is off to bed.
Weekend arrives and it’s all about teaching the toddlers. Cassie thought River to talk.

Ty thought Phoneix to walk. 

I thought I had done this the first day. Cassie must have walked off before she finished it.

Raya reads to River.

 Isadora charisma is brought up to 2. I have no idea how it’s so low. Chloe’s handiness is at 3.

Cassie thought River to walk.

Computer a bit glitchy…

Computer tells me it’s going to be Cassie’s and Ty’s birthday in a few days. That’s their birthday to elders. If Cassie wants another baby now is the time. I am not sure. I don’t think I need another one.

Isadora had her Sunday match and won (Home 8, Away 5)

Chapter Nine – Death Becomes her

Where did we leave off? Gabi and Serafina are over the 90 days. Serafina’s twins, Raya and Chloe are teenager. Cassie got her LTW.

From l > r we have Lydia, Serafina, Cassie and Ty, Gabi, that is Chloe with the purple hair, Raya sitting in front of her, and Isadora sitting off to the side.

Monday morning and I give Raya a new look ( well me and my 4 year old. He choose Isadoras too, as this is my hair colour. Maybe that is why she is still around, as apart from the red skin, I look alot like her,Isadora that is, including the fat cheeks)

I like the colour, its differnt to all the reds and blonds. Her Fav colour is aqua, so thats why she has the eyeliner.

 
Anyway, Cassie needs to start baby making. I have run outa time and i don’t think I am going to be lucky enough to pick and choose. Their is always Isadora if Cassie doesn’t produce a good looking red heir. Those cheeks were a problem on her though. Lydia who seems to want to do everything except her charisma and guitar skill, brings both her athletic and painting up to 6. Cassie who has nothing better to do , brings up her gardening up to 8. Isadora meets a friend outside work, Jamie Vatos, and invites him home. (on a side note, all the McKenna’s that moved out have all found a house) Isadora also invites him to stay the night. I think she can do much better though. Tuesday and Ty has been promoted to “Annonymous Source Handler“

Isadora was promoted to the “Minor Leagues“.

Sadly today Gabi died of old age. She was painting a portrait of twins, Raya and Chloe. Since I gave her (Raya) a make over. It was shapping up to be lovely. Everyone is obviously terribly upset.

Then I invites over Lulu after her work to well basicly kill her too and manage to lock her in a room with a fire and hay-stack. I wait and wait and the minute she dies of starvation the room goes on fire. I really wanted a red/orange ghost. Now she’s pink, yuk! I at least have her ghost.

• Raya’s athletic is now at 3
• Isadoras cooking is at 4.

Day 94 for Serafina and two of her sisters have died. I read somewhere that sims that have mastered athletic can live up to 115 days. Well Cassandra doesn’t have that long to have twins. I know she could have one, but what if it’s not a red skinned girl. On a side note Raya, who was using a spare room, gets Gabi’s old room. As both their favourite colours were aqua.
Next day and Serafina dies of starvation at 8am. I did have a change of heart at the last minute but I was too late. Grim came to get her.

On happier news, Ty got promoted to “Investigative Reporter“, with a bonus of 1,888.

Ty and Cassie celebrated his  promotion by trying for a baby. It all must have been too much for Cassie after the death of her aunts and mother as they had a blazing row afterwards.

He might not live to see his daughter if he keeps this up. Despite not completing his LTW. Raya improved her writing to 4, really must focus on her handiness and gardening. Isadora invited over Jamie Vatos and he asked her to move in with him, first time that’s happened. It’s a really shame too, coz it would have been real easy too. She is my spare and since I won’t be aloud move her back in, I can’t let he go. Plus she has to finish her LTW, which I have already put alot of work into. I decide on a compremise and ask him to go steady. They woohoo to seal the deal. I learned that he is “athletic, ambitious, clumsy and loves the outdoors” not a bad fella. I wounder what the 5th trait is.
Weekend arrives and it is all about bringing their skills up. Serafina’s twins will be outa school soon and will have to join the workplace as I am running out of money, the money that Cassie and Ty bring in won’t pay the bills anymore. I built (well i downloaded; i just cant build, Pinstar said this was against the rules; but i hated the box house i had. I had enough cash to buy the one i wanted)  a fabulous house when I had Connors money coming in. Since then I havn’t been making that much and each week I get lower and lower.

• Chloe’s writing is up at 3 and then 4
• Raya’s handiness goes from 1 to 2, and from 2 to 3.
• Ty painting is at 7.

Cassie also finds out what I knew already, which is that she is pregnant, that was at 5pm.
Isadora earned a promotion to “Rookie“

That is it for this week. Cassie’s twins should be born on Monday. It will take two to raise them. None of the them are “Family Orientated” so it won’t be as quick as it was with Raya and Chloe. Also I plan on finishing up Lydia’s LTW next week, and get her moved on out. Maybe I will be lucky and someone will offer to take her away.

Cassie – 109,628

Chapter Eight – I woke up Near the Sea

From l>r we have Lydia, elder Serafina, Cassie and Ty, elder Gabi, sitting we have Isadora (red skin), then we have Serafina’s twin girls Raya and Chloe.

Monday morning and Ty gets up at 3am, he manages to bring his painting up to 4 before going to work. Gabi and Serafina are 84 days old, they might make it to next Monday. Also it’s Cassie’s and Ty’s birthday today, to adults. I think it’s cute that they have the same birthday. Serafina now has time for other things since her girls are off at school. She manages to bring her cooking up to 8. Lydia, (the one who looks like a young Serafina) who should be practising her guitar, brings her painting up to 4. The girls come home and do their homework.

Cassie and Ty have their birthdays minutes apart.

Ty “Hey, I’m no Edward Cullen, why do i sparkle“

Cassie “agh your contagious, get away from me you fool“

They are adults now, they really should get on with the kids soon. Once there is room of course. She actually rolled the wish as soon as she married Ty, I accepted it. But there has obviously hasn’t been any room. Anyway next day I told that it’s going to be the girls birthday in a few days. Also Ty has been promoted to “freelance writter“. The interviews, reports and reviews will start soon.

Lydia went off to play for tips, just because she wanted too. Thought going to the park would be a good place to find friends too. Isadora earned herself a promotion to “snack hawker“.

• Also Cassie athletic is at 9 now.
• Lydia guitar is at 6 and
• Ty’s logic is at 7.

Wednesday morning and Serafina’s girls are up chatting at 4am. Talking about the weather it seems..

Serafina herself also upgrades enough to have completed the “plumber skill challange“. Lydia also brings her charisma up to 7. Next day is Chloe’s and Raya’s birthday to the teenage years. Where we will finally get too see what they look like.

I also take some time out to re-do my portraits area.

Starting with the left we have Lydia on a workout machine, can barly see Lulu next to her, then on the main wall we have, Malcolm, then Connor, then a blury Cassie, then Jude, then you cant really see, Serafinas and anther blury Cassie

Heres a better look at them. (this is 2 screen shots in one picture, the wall is straight)

I have Gabi do some portraits. I will have a page for them. I don’t want the portraits littered throughout the posts. I want them all on one page. I do get two I want to share here, one of the elder Serafina and one of Isadora napping, which is appopriate as she is a “heavy sleeper”.

Ty was promoted to a “professional blogger” I don’t know which number he is on.

Raya and Chloe have their birthday. Searfina throws it for them and invites family and friends. Chloe gets the “ambitious” trait. Raya gets the “green-thump” this is very good for her career, she will need to master her gardening, handiness and fishing. Alot of work!?!

Chloe - “Can we stop the fat man from eatting me please.. or my cake….”

I bring both of them to the mirror and Raya has horrible fat cheek. I should never have used Malcolm.

I will pick so much better the next time.

Chloe gets herself some cool purple hair and I love it. Well of course I do, I picked it.

Purple is her favourite colour….. “purple is a fruit..” Simpsons

• Lydia athletic is up at 5.

Friday and Saturday and Gabi and Serafina are still alive. Cassie mastered her athletic, which is great news. It also means she will live longer when I want her to die. So don’t get too attached to her. Incase you may not have remember, completing her athletic means that she has finished her LTW.

That is 8 of them done. She won’t be around long, she don’t paint, cook or write.

Raya needs the gardening for her career, Ty needs the writing for his and I can get anyone to cook. The only way she will stick around is to find gems.

I Have Gabi do a portraits of the sistes, Cassie, Lydia and Chloe, Chloe is only a half sister. There was only room for 3 on the couch. So that’s why Raya isn’t there. Apart from the fact that she is ugly.

It comes out all blury and i am very disapointed with it. Does she not have any idea how dificult it is to get all 3 to sit there so that i can take a shot of them, bah !

• Cassie gardening is at 7
• Chloe’s logic is at 5.
• Lydia’s painting is now at 5.
• Serafina’s cooking is up to 9.

Saturday morning, Gabi does Chloe’s portait.

Serafina completes her cooking skill, that is 4 skills she has mastered. Ty’s painting is at 5, just in time as Gabi is 90 tomorrow. His paintings won’t be as good, but I don’t even know if he has the time to paint, his writing is more important. Raya who should be bringing up her handiness has improved her writing instead as her “wishes” want to.
Sunday and my elders still aren’t dead.

• Cassie brings her cooking up to 4.
• Isadora gets tutored in cooking by Searfina and brings it up to 3.
• Chloe improved her logic to 3

So it’s Sunday night and neither if them are dead. No doubt they will die at thee most annoying time.
That’s it then, a very uneventful week. Next week they WILL die.

Chapter Seven – The Galvatrons

Right last week Serafinas twin girls aged up to toddlers. Aging them up will be my focus this week.

I notice at breakfast that my house is full of twins. Raya and Chloe, Serafina’s twins. Isadora and Lydia, Lulus twin girls. Serafina and Gabriella, Haydens twin girls. As fun as the triplets are, none are left, 2 completed their LTW.

Lydia who is still at school brings her athletic to 3. She did this on her own. Must be copying her sister. Speaking of Isadora, it’s her birthday in 2 days.

Also lots of skills up today -

• Gabi brings her cooking up to 4 and her gardening up to 5.
• Cassie athletic is now at 5 and her cooking at 3.
• Ty charisma is up to 4 and his logic at 6.

So onto Serafina’s twins, Raya and Chloe, Raya learned how to talk yesterday, today Chloe learned to talk.

While Chloe learned how to talk, Raya learned all she could from the xylophone. Raya also learned how to walk today. That only leaves potty training for Raya. While Serafina was teaching Raya, their daddy Malcolm died. He was a McKenna, as he was married to Lulu and Malcolm had 5 daughters, 2 which he never meet. From 2 different sisters. Hayden and Connor did end up getting the 5 grandchildren they wants. They just had to die to make room for them. All 5 of them were born into the legacy house.

Here is Malcolm’s family tree

Serafina is heart broken (at least he didn’t die in the house) I was very surprised that she was happy enough to teach Raya to talk, put at least she did. Next day I send Serafina to the pool, as she was going a bit stir crazy from teaching the kids all day. Cassie also brings her athletic up to 6.

Wednesday, I have Gabi weed my garden, just thought she needed a break from her norm. She ends up brings her gardening up to 6. We have life fruit and death flowers, but Gabi can’t plant them as she is not skilled enough. Ty finally joined the journalism career. I don’t know why I was waiting. He has joined now, so that is all that matters. I will focus on his writing skills. Computers tell me it’s Isadoras birthday today and Lydia, Raya and Chloe’s birthday in a few days.

Serafina has always been a single mother , as Malcolm didn’t live here with Raya and Chloe. The most annoying thing is that Serafina has tonnes of time, she is on maternity leave, but trying to get the others to stop helping when I don’t need it, is quite difficult. They have more important things to be doing. She is quite capable of looking after her own children. It’s always nice when I am in trouble with them. But when I have it on my list to feed them and they waste their time,grr It bugs me. It’s because I have a “high free will” I do like it like that. Sure Lulu learned the guitar all on free will. anyway she managed to teach Chloe to walk before lunch and finally Raya was potty trained. That is now all 3 requirements. I have them both sit at the peg boxes an they learn all they can from it.
Ty brought his writing from 1 to 2 then from 2 to 3 when he came home from work today. He is a computer whiz, so he should get it fast. Cassie needs to bring up her gardening. So I have her learn it from a book, she all 3 of them in her inventory. She can’t plant the good stuff until she reaches level 7. She is only at 2.

Isadora aged up to young adult, she rolled the “heavy sleeper” trait, what a waste. Can’t see anything good about it. Even the neurotic one comes with some perks. (ugly hair is back)

Chloe learned all she can from the xylophone, that’s it, there is nothing left for them to learn. By the end of the night,

• Lydia athletic is up to 4.
• Ty’s painting is at 2.
  His wishes keep express in painting, if he has time to keep it up then he will be my portrait painter when Gabi is gone. He has got 3 more points to go, til he can paint a still-life.

Thursday arrives and Isadora athletic is at 9, she is only a young adult and she “wants” to join the sports career but I will wait til she has completed it. Nepotism is rife in Riverview, Lulu wants to commission a small painting from Gabi ( I will forget this one, I know I will)
I decide since Serafina’s twins are completely trained that there is no point in waiting for the computer to do it tomorrow, i will age them up tonight during Lydia’s party, she wont mind. It is the first time I have aged up any sim a day early. It’s not against the rules as I have been notified about their birthday. I had it at 6pm and I had it for all 3, Lydia, Chloe, and Raya.

Lydia got “clumsy“. Raya got “mooch” and Chloe got “loves the out-doors“.

Chloe gets to have her in the party room.

Lydia all by herself… ?

No there are tonnes of pople there. I feel like I should go through them. Starting on the far/top left, we have Loki as an elder, with the pic-tails and red ribbon. Standing in front of her is her niece Cassie. Lana is sitting at the table in the beigh dress. Isadora is stading to her right with the red long hair. Lulu is standing beside her, with the longer grey hair thinking of malcolm, i think. Gabi is behing her. If you can pick out Jude amoungst the crowd then go you, but he is standing in over-auls, still with black hair with his hands on his hips, i really did hope he would findhimself a nice boyfriend. Then we have Serafina coming in the door with Raya in her arms.

agh, she is all excited that friends came to her party.

Here is Raya aging up.
Just another freaky thing, January lemienx, who I didn’t invite, I invited her son or brother or someone with the same last name. Anyway she died at my party. This is now the second person to die at my party. Could this be a really curse, or a game glitch. Maybe the Grim Reaper fancies one of my girls and is forcing people to die in my house?!? The party was epic despite the death.

The next day I notice that Jude is finally an elder, which means that all of Haydens Kids are elders. Ty got his first promotion to Spell Checker. A little bonus of 608. I also learned how to fix Cassie’s lost trait problem. I really needed to, as 2 other sims had things stuck to their hands. So I had to look up the cheats. It was also a day of skill improving.

• Ty writing goes from 3 to 4 and from 4 to 5, he’s a computer whiz.
• Cassie’s gardening goes from 3 to 4 and from 4 to 5 from a book.
• Lydia’s charisma is up from 3 to 4 and from 4 to 5.

Bit weird eh?

Cassie and Serafina also mastered their logic.

Lydia now doesn’t have enough friends to bring her charisma up anymore, so I change her hair and clothes.

“I think she looks the spit of Serafina“

I finally get around to changing Isadoras clothes too. It warms me to her.

Raya rolls the “creatur robot cross breaded” LTW. I accept it. Ty’s writing is at 6.

Finally the weekend, I pay most of my attention to their wishes, as most of them are home and I can complete them all easier. Always try get them down for breakfast on a Saturday morning.

Right so onto wish fulfillment. Lydia improves her guitar, up to 5.

Isadora masters the athletic skill, which means she can join her career now and advance as quick as her moods will let her.

Serafina wanted to learn some new recipies, well she learned “eggs machiavellan” and “cobbler”. Ty brings his painting to 3 and Cassies athleic is now at 8. Lydia needs alot of friends to go higher in her charisma skill. So I check out who are her highest aquideances, I invite them over. They were Bradford French, Lyle condon & Jeanine Jolina. She spent the day (Sunday) talking to them. Only managed to make two of them friends. I will buy her the “distant friends” as soon as I have enough LTP. Lydia brings her charisma up to 6 talking to her friends. Gabi learns that Bradford is “mean spirited” , “mooch” and “innapropiate“. She likes him, no one else does. I get Isadora to join her career, so she can start on Monday. Also -

• Ty’s charisma is up to 6
• Cassie’s gardening is now at 6.

Next week will proberly be Gabriella’s and Serafina’s last week. The last of my 2nd generation in the house. Serafina has upgraded everything in the house to unbreakable and Gabi has painted everyone portaits. So now it’s just a waiting game.

the post name The Galvatrons, is the name of a song by Cassandra, an australian band, i “you tubed” cassandra and that was the first song. i dont know why i picked cassandra. Maybe coz she is my heir and now the head of the house, who knows. This is proberly how i am going to name then from now on, totally randomally.

LTP

Serafina – 196,784
Gabriella’s – 200,862
Cassandra – 54,171
Ty – 11,971
Isadora – 40,649
Lydia – 24,400
Raya – 4175
Chloe – 3170

Chapter Six – Moving on out

Right so where are we? Lydia and Isadora are teenagers, Gabi’s latest boyfriend died and Loki completed her LTW and I bought her a house and moved her out.

Monday morning and Loki was mentioned in the news paper as having mastered her career. Which is pretty cool. I don’t read the paper much. Takes alot of time out of everyday.

Lulu invites over Wilfred, she asked him to go steady. She is so close to her LTW, I might move her out with him. I know she’s my heir and I didn’t think it through when I thought of it first. But I went with it. Cassie improved her logic to 6 , more than half way now. Tuesday at 12:15am I am told that Serafina’s baby is coming. I send her to the nursery. Out comes Raya, pale like her mammy, I did wounder if the red skin from nanny might turn up, like skip a generation. Guess not. Raya is excitable and athletic. Last one like her mother. Second is Chloe, absent minded (like her granddad) grumpy.

All I get get done the rest of the day was to bring up Cassie logic to 7 , dont get me wrong this is a good thing, as it’s to do with her LTW.
Wednesday and it’s Gabriellas and Serafinas last birthday. Haydens first children are elders. I am quite sad about this. I realize that Gabi hasn’t reached her LTW, I will have to crack the whip. They age up and I cut Serafinas hair. Long hair didn’t suit her, she looked weird. I give her back colour on her hair, as she still has two babies, she can’t be grey. I will keep her and make her upgrade everything in the house to unbreakable. I don’t need things to be self cleaning, as I like having a new maid as a new friend every few days. Gabi gets to keep her grey hair. They both keep their elder warobe, I can’t stand the elder clothes and I just won’t be happy with any of them.
So Lulu is just taking up space. I don’t need the money, I could kill her off. But that will upset everyone.

So she asked Wilfred to marry her, (can ya see that stupid plate of glasses… grrr) he accepts, but when I go to move him into his house, I see that he is homeless. I just kick her out. Later I realize that I should have moved him in and then moved both out into a house that I bought. Also that plate stuck to her hand was annoying me. It’s too late now, hignssight is a great thing. She is the leader of the free world, she should find a house.

 Heres the house as it stand now.

We have L>R Lydia (fat cheeked one) , Gabi (my painter) , Ty, Cassie, Serafina with her twins, Raya and Chloe and Sitting is Lydia.

I am going to try my best to get her (lulus) urn, i will have a good idea when she is going to die, as she will die two days after Gabi, or the day after Loki, as Loki was her triplet but was born before 12 at night an she was born after midnight.
Lydia brings her guitar up to 4 and rolls the “golden finger, golden tongue” which means , full guitar and full charisma.

Thursday and
Cassie brings logic up to 8
Isadora brings her athletic up to 8
Gabi gardening is now at 4.

Cassie and Ty get married, all the trouble I have had with couples not marrying or moving in with each other. When I saw my chance, I took it. They were just standing in the porch in the garden. Not even In formal wear. He moves in . So as soon as Gabi and Serafina pass on, she can have babies , she will have to be my heir. Just checking out things while they are sleeping and I get a shock at Serafina’s career. She gets 4 days off from work, 4 working days for maternity leave and since she is an Astronaut, and only works one day a week, she has gotten 21 days off work after the babies were born. So since Serafina is 75 days old, she will proberly never return to work. So I really made the right choice waiting to have the babies until she was finished her ltw, as she would never have made it back (bit of a moot point, as she would have been working a 5 day week if she wasn’t an astronaut)

The next day, Chloe and Raya age up to toddlers, too dificult to see which one is better looking. I am not even sure I will keep either of them. ( I dont even know which one is which there) They look really plain to me, but I am so used to the red skin. I also get a chance to check out Ty’s traits. He is “insane, excitable, hydophobic, artistic and a computer whiz”. His favorite colour is, ahem, pink. His LTW is to be a “star news anchor” I hate this one. I hate doing reviews and reports and interviews. It all takes so much attention that I wouldn’t normally give to a husband. Being that he was married-in as a young adult, he obviously doesn’t have as much LTP as his wife, well nearly none since he has just moved in. So he still has to use toilet and keep in regular contact with all his friends to keep em. Blagh.

Serafina brings her cooking 7. Not bad for a girl who has only ever made pancakes and waffles. Isadora runs home from school most days and has brought her athletic up to 6. Cassie has brought up her logic up to 9, this all from a book. Also today Gabi mastered her writing , which means she has completes her LTW.

So I think that is 7 now, I must make a chart or something to keep a record of what is done and who did it. Stick it down in statistic and summery. Saturday morning as I call the whole house to breakfast I realize that Bradford French didn’t leave. He said he was going home. But never left. He has been sleeping in one of the spare beds. I hope he is not stuck here. Lydia brings her charisma up to 2 and isadora brings her athletic up to 7 and Ty brings his charisma up to 2. Wilfred gets trained by isadora , he seems to not have married Lulu, she must be an elder now. Sunday and Cassie wants to visit the graveyard and go for a jog. So I have her jog to the graveyard. 2 birds 1 stone. I have her pick up some seeds while she is there. Since Cassie won’t be working, I might have her do the gardening too. It’s been Gabi’s job since her mother died, but I havnt planted anything new.

So I have Ty (since his wishes wanted to ) run down to the bookstore and buy all 3 gardening books for Cassie, nice husband. Gabi wrote all day today. She earned 1954 from her novels a far cry from Connor’s 100,000 at this point. It is more important that she paints.
Since Serafina is on a permanent maternity leave and she is family orientated, it makes sence that she trains up the girls as she has all the time she needs. Also she wants to anyway, or at least her wishes do. Just doing it in the order that the wishes came up, she thought Raya how to talk

 Teaching her the important things its seems, like about robbing things…

Potty trained chloe.

Also by the end of the day
Lydia athletic is up to 2
Ty charisma is at 3
Isadora brought her athletic up to 8
Cassie mastered her logic.

So that’s it for another week. I did forget to get the LTP again this week. I only have next Fridays. I was just so into playing it one night that I played through two and a half weeks, played til 5.30am. I normally turn it off when Sunday hits and take the necessary notes. So sorry.

Chapter Five – Gabi’s Curse

Right where did we leave off? Connors death and the toddlers grew up into children.

 I know connor is here; but i forgot to get one after he died…

No decent royalty payment for me this week. I have accumalated about 600,000, 550,000 of that was from Connor alone. I took a screen shot of this. (in the last post)  As I would think that was a fib. He wasnt even artistic or anything. He was a loner who wrote all on own. Cassie and Gabi got payments but nowhere near 100,000. We’re still on Sunday.  Serafina got engaged this morning and I didn’t just want to have Cassie’s birthday as a side note at the end of the last post. She won’t be my heir as one of her traits didn’t stick. It was genius. Before the celebrations.

• Isadora brought her logic up to 4
• Lydia brought her painting up to 2
• Cassie brought her writing up to 3

Cassie had her birthday before I could get her to blow out her candles. Oops. She had never rolled a LTW up to this point. So I had to pick one. The last trait she rolled was “perfectionist“. So her ltw is the “Perfect mind, Perfect body” with this trait it means she can stay home all the time, i don’t need the money right now. So she will need to complete logic and athletic. That will be easy enough. I also “grew” out her hair and gave her her adult wardrope. I very rarely go to the bother of changing kids or toddlers clothes as they are barely in them.

Purple is her favourite colour… love the Hot Pink boots.

Serafina also brings her cooking up to 6. By the time she will bring it up to 10 she will be dead. I should make Cassie cook. Since she will stay at home and she will be having babies. Makes sence.

Monday morning at 1am,

• Loki earned a promtion to Cat Burglar.
• Serafina was promoted to Top Gun.
• Lulu was promoted to Govneror.

I think this is pretty good going, Loki at 1am, Sera at 1pm and Lulu at 3pm. Not bad going for a Monday. Loki got a bonus of 3696, sera 2956, and Lulu 1716. So both Loki and Sera are at 9, Lulu is 8.
While Lydia is at school she is asked to clean the bug cage. Never had this one before. While Lydia was cleaning the cage, Bradford French came home with Isadora. They do their homework together. By the end of the day,

• Cassie athletic is up to level 2.
• Lydia painting is at 3.
• Lulu’s masters her charisma.

Tuesday and the strangest thing happens, the computer tells me it’s isadora’s birthday in a few days. What’s strange about that? Well why isn’t it Lydia’s. Twins with different birthdays. Cassie goes for a jog and brings her athletic to up to 3.
All of Gabi’s wishes are to do with Bruce, guess shes’s over “what’s his name” things like hug him, first kiss, massage him. So after I made them best friends, Gabi asked him to go steady with her. He stayed the night, she painted his portrait too. I also finally do her room. All she had was a bed and dresser. I did it in her favourite colour, aqua, or at least what I thought was aqua.

Loki also mastered her logic skill and athletic skill

Wednesday and now it’s Lydias turn to get the reminder of her birthday in two days. Bloody neusence. Cassie reaches level 4 or writing. Which has nothing to do with her LTW; that’s logic and athletic. She also brings her athletic up to 4. Isadora has her birthday party at 9pm. I invite over family and friends, aunties, uncles, boyfriends and fiancée.

So Isadora finally grows up, I go to change her hair…

Look at her, big fat cheeks. There is no way she can be my heir looking like that. Those cheeks can’t live on. Right so Cassandra is my heir. I havn,t been paying her much attention. So next day, Cassie goes from logic 1 to 2 , from 2 to 3. This was from a book. Also

• Isadora brings her athletic up to 2
• Loki charisma is up to 5 now.

She brought her charisma up talking to rusty. She spent ages talking to him. She ends up asking him to marry her. There was nothing else worth doing. I was bored.

Lulu throws a fundraiser; this will be her second to last one that I will need to throw. As usual it was awsome, earning the “man” 54,471. I should be getting 10% or something. At least she waited for the day inbetween the girls birthday this time. She cares a little. Today, Friday, its Lydia’s birthday. If I had had been thinking I would have aged up Lydia the night before with Isadora, but I was so horrified by her cheeks that I was too upset. Serafina gets home from work that day, she has been promoted, which means, trumpts please, she is an Astronaunt. Got a bonus of 3732 and completes her LTW. She is still an adult, so I have achieved a mini-goal.

Isadora had to fix that bloody boiler. Lulu comes home and has also gotten a promotion. To vice president, with a bonus of 2076. One more promotion to go.

Cassie who is now my heir, only recently has been paid alot of attention by me. She invites over Ty, her boyfriend and proposes to him. She will need to be married to be my heir. I know its not in the rules. I just want her to be married.

So if memory serves me right, Loki is engaged to rusty, Cassie to Ty, Serafina to malcolm. Back to Cassie, she learns that Ty is insane.

Since Lulu got promoted today, I do have to throw a fundraiser. It’s just bad luck for Lydia, since it’s her birthday. Nothing out of the ordinary happened during the party. I could use a screen shot from any other party and not even I would notice.

Lydia ages up and rolls the “hydrophopic ” trait. At least it gives her something to talk about it.

I go change her hair and I notice she has lovely violet eyes. You cant really tell from this pic.I never took a look at malcolms. During the night Gabi proposed to Bruce. Of course he accepted.

Also Serafina and malcome try for a baby. ( i have a screen shot but you dont really need it .. ) I know he has three other children in the house, but that’s what her wishes told me she wanted. Lulus party was awsome, she earned the “man” 82,287. Saturday I had isadora bring her athletic from 2 to 3 and then from 3 to 4 in a very long jog. She rolled the “Super Star Athletic” as her LTW. I accept it, I don’t know if she will be around long enough to complete it. Though I said that about lulu and she was my heir. Something could happen to Cassie. Lydia starts her guitar at 3 due to the xylephone.
Gabi’s writing is up to 9, just one more. I didn’t get her write many novels. It’s the painting she is best at. Speaking of portraits. I must get Cassie and the twins now that they are teenagers. On other business, Loki got a raise and Serafina’s promotion was on the paper.
Cassie improved her writing to level 6 while writing “Time Spy”
Sunday morning at 1am, Loki came home and has been promoted to Master Thief.

That came with a nice bonus of 6960. Which also means that she has completed her life wish.

Also at 2am Serafona finds out that she is pregnant. So I take that as a sign that Loki must go. Especially that she has her LTW done.
The computer tells me that it is Gabi’s birthday in a few days. So she will be an elder. So Serafina got pregnant in the nick of time. As it will be her birthday too. I decide that I will throw Loki a wedding party. It’s the least I can do for her.
Cassie brings her logic from 3 to 4 and from 4 to 5 in one sittting. She is doing well now that I am paying her attention. So I get Loki and Rusty ready for the wedding, I have them flirt, kiss, make-out but “have wedding” never comes up anywhere in their lists. I make her talk to Rusty so much that it brings her charisma up to 6. The guest leave without seeing a wedding and are disapointed. So I just buy Loki a house and have her move out. Since she didn’t get married, it was the least I could do. She mastered her Logic and Athletic.

She also earned me 114,000 LTP, so thats one more point.

After the non-wedding party, Bruce ups and dies on Gabi. This is now her second partner that has died and she is heart broken again. It never said Bruce was old or anything. I don’t know if he died of an accident in the house. You could see in the proposal pic that he didnt look elder. (also if you see here Lulu has a tray of glasses stuck to her hand and I dont know how to use cheats)

 She (Gabi) is an elder tomorrow so that is it for Gabi, she will die alone and childless having never moved out of home. Staying in all the time and painting.

So that is it for the week, I forgot to get all the LTP this week. There is no point in telling you where they are now, as its a week ahead and just confuse the situ. Sorry.

Chapter Four – Soak up the Sun

We left our house after tonnes of birthdays . The Twins became toddlers, Gabi, Sera, Loki and Lulu became adults.

From L>R we have Loki, Connor holding Lydia, Serafina, Gabi, Lulu, below is Cassie and Isadora. The thing that will dominate this week will be Connors death. He is 87 days old. So that gives him about 3 – 6 days (I’m sure) I will leave him to do it by old age. Haydens urn is still in the family inventory. I havent decided if I will go ahead and have a grave yard at home. Everyone is always complaining how ghosts can be annoying. Taking their beds, turning on music and generally waking up Sims. Sunday was quite enough.

Cassie thought Isadora to talk (on the left) and Lulu thought Lydia (on the right) . The twins have two days to their next birthday. Both still need to be potty trained. Lulu brought her gardening up to 6 (dont need a photo for that ) She has gotten up pretty quick. Monday and Lulu and Serafina head off to work, and Cassie off to school. Also

• Isadora learns all she can from the Xylephone.
• Connor completes the “read 50 books” wish.

Tuesday is Connors 89th day. I have him write 3 fiction novels. They are only 90 pages long.

Lulu gets promoted to Local Rep, which is number 6. She is finally back to where she was before she got fired. It has taken two weeks to get back in here. She needs to throw another fundraiser. They are quite easy now, Serve a buffet, serve drinks, turn on radio and Lulu preform on her guitar. I invite who i think is rich, the Cassindine family are very rich and live next door. But sims are dropping like flies. Sometimes 5 die of old age in one night. Lulu invited Rusty over, and Loki finally had the time to talk to him and ask him to go steady. She immediatly wasnted to move out with him. She will get her wish soon. For the minute boyfriend and girlfriend will do. Party was awsome

While Connor sat out yet another party; he finally wrote his 40th novel.

Home at 3am, Loki earned a promotion to Bank Robber and a bonus of 2640. I am going to build the twins new bedrooms with this, i bought some new furniture in the Sim Store, that i am dying to put somewhere. Back to Loki, i think she is at level 8 career. (if i turn on the game to check right now i will never finish the post)

Next day its Connors 90th birthday

• Loki reaches Athletic 8
• Isadora reach level 3 of the peg box
• Gabi reaches gardening 6

Cassie, unlike all of her aunties before has been allowed to go over to someones house after school (they never do their homework unless you stalk them) I only let her do it as it was Ty Golden, the one who i want her to marry. They are best friends at the moment, and Loki is going steady with his older brother. But if i marry off both Loki and Cassie into the family, i wont be able to marry off anymore, as i will be related to all future generations. Thursday it’s Isadoras and Lydias birthday.

Lydia learns all she can from the xylephone; so that’s now both of them to do that. Both have learned to walk,talk and potty trained. Not that I get to pick the traits,but I like them to be taken care of.

Lulu gets home from work and she has finally been promoted major. So that’s number 7 now. I am quite happy with her progress. I know I am going to need it without even having to check it, so I throw a fundraiser for 6pm that nights. Yes yes I know it’s the twins birthday and their mother is throwing a fundraiser yet again the night of their birthday. That’s the kind of mother she is. Career first. Also I don’t know if anyone noticed but I never threw a funeral for Hayden. I think I will wait til I have Connor too and throw a 2 for 1. Gabi brings her writing up to 8, and considering her daddy is on day 91 we are very close to my target.

The girls age up during the fundraiser. Isadora I get told that due to “bad upbringing” I can’t choose it. I don’t know how that happened, she was trained on everything and never in a bad mood. I get to choose Lydias ironiclly I paid her no attention and she was always in a bad mood as she’s insane and would sleep all day and awake all night while the rest of the house is asleep.

Lydia got “excitable” and isadora got “hates the outdoors”.

I also did their bedrooms. Well bedroom. I like it, Isadora favourite colour is lime green and lydias is navy blue. Serafina broght her logic up to 9. Just like Lulu with the guitar she brought this up herself. Lydia is a virtuoso but her wishes are for painting, is this because she is insane? Computer let me know that it will be Cassandra birthday in two days, that’s Sunday. Serafina goes to work today, Friday and I check her progress and I see that she has a new boss. I “suck up to superior” But that barely helps. She needs to do her career as quick as posible ( I have a plan; you will find out if it works ) I will invite her over after work. She comes over but she has to leave very soon after. I am making Connor write another masterpiece, I don’t think he will finish it but I think it is worth a try, it gives the death watch a bit more excitment to it instead of just having him do his normal day. It’s called the “longest shadow” which I think is ironic as he will die writing it and be a shadow himself.

At 4pm today, Friday, Connor dies of old age.

Everyone in the house comes running up to see. On last count his LTP were 265,173.

He mastered the writing, ( do we see how much money that man earned me … over half a million ) got his ltw and portrait. Charisma 5, cooking 4, garden 2 and guitar 2. Gabi didn’t reach level 9 of writing and I was really really hoping to get to Sunday and get one more royalty payment out of him. It would have been 100,000 or even more. So now everyone will be Ina bad mood all weekend. Connors family tree below.

Right so back to the game. Isadora wishes say that she wants to buy books so I have her buy 3 logic and 3 charisma books. On her way home she decides she has to brush her teeth 3 times. This is because she is neurotic. First time having this. Seems quite a funny one. Saturday morning and Gabriella who is morning her father and quite upset, but the game decides to kick her while she’s down and kill off her boyfriend. So now Gabi is heart broken too. Nearly all the first generation sims are dead now I would say. As she also loses a friend. This might be from daddy dieing too as she was quite close to him as they both wrote. So even though all her hygiene and hunger are all up she is still in a bad mood. So I have her leave the house as stir crazy is the only moodlet I can do anything about.

Isadora reads one of the logic books that her sister bought and gets to start at logic 3 due to the peg box. Wish there was a toy for every skill.
This morning is the first one I have missed Hayden, I think it’s because all her left over food is finally gone. So I check who the best chef is in the house at the moment. It’s Serafina, so much for her Saturday lie in, I make her get up early to cook pancakes for everyone. I call the whole house for a meal. Think I am going to need two dinning room tables.

Serafina invites over Malcolm and her boss Jenna for the day. Gabi invites over Bruce the maid. So Serafina has two guest for the day. Upon close look at my full house I realize that all I have is girls. With the house this full I find it quite hard and I actually have to pause the game to que everyones tasks for the day.

Malcome talks to his 3 kids while serafina talks to her boss, Jenna. This is the first time I have invited over a “boss” just to get their relationship up. I can generally be one “good friends” with someone in one go, I just ignore all other things and stay at it. I see the ask for raise thingy, I will wait til we are best friends to ask for that. So we are good friends now so she can go off and do watever she wants in the house. I talk to malcolm I see “try for baby” so I know now what
my plan for her is. I told you I would tell you. I will wait for her to complete her career and then I will try for a baby. I won’t have her marry Malcolm and move out. She’ll have her baby and stay. So now I have another deadline for her career, before she becomes an elder. Which isn’t far away. I will do the same with Loki, but I will move her out. I will miss the things she steals. They are both at level 8. Anyway back to serafina.

She asks malcolm to marry her and goes and “entuses about wedding” to everyone. Its no big deal, i am very sure that she isnt going to actaully get married, but its nice to be engaged. Lulu gardening is up at 6 now. Gabi also wants to flirt with Bruce, I though this would make her feel better. But she won’t “go steady” with him because she is heart broken. He just becomes a romantic interest. I will just have to wait til she is “feeling” better

Chapter Three – Spoils of War

We left them all morning Hayden. From l>r we have Loki, Connor, Searfina, Gabi, a pregnant Lulu, and Cassie as a tennager. I keep mixing up Gabi and Cassie with the red skin and short hair. Another monday morning and (in order to get some focus with the posts, i am going from Sunday to Sunday) or more accuratly, from Royalty payment to royalty payment. Connor gets up at a mind boggling 2am. Today finally everyone gets over Haydens death, god that was slowing down everyones progress. Connor being the absent-minded fool, keeps forgetting the things i tell him to. I finally get him to finish his latest book by 8am that morning. I make him go have some fun, coz he will be writing the rest of the day away. I didnt realize with Connor getting up at 2am , that i have left Loki up all night “working from home” opps! She’s now hungry, stinky and tired. Sent her off to bed, she can shower before work, they might feed her there. Gabi reaches level 6 of writing, she hasnt written many books, buts thats not part of her LTW. Just master it. If i can get her to level 9 before Daddy dies then i will be happy. Next Gabi’s wished tell me that she wants to “improve cooking ” and “improve gardening“. Guess she wants to take up Haydens hold position in the house.

Everything in the garden is wilting. So i have Lulu put her guitar down (which i never told her to pick up ) and come help her sisiter. They both get themselves 1 point at gardening before i give up and buy 4 sprinklers. I leave Lulu to weed. The morning was waisted watering those plant and now Gabi wants to have her daily bath. Bloody neat sims. Speaking of Neat sims, the new maid is not bad looking. Gabi might be leaving Steafon. Connor starts Scrapbook 4, i always use the games titles.

Serafina gets a promotion to Wingwoman and a nice bonus of 1296, which i use to build a new upstairs bathroom. As the que was getting long in the morning. Speaking of upstairs, i think its time for Connor to move out the Master Bedroom and Lulu to move in. It doesnt have an ensuite. This is the next plan for the house. On a sad note, Connors brother Jared (love the name) dies. Monday at 5.53, i get notified that the baby is coming. I thought it would be tuesday. I send her up to the Nursery.

There are still 6 cots here. Must sell them. In the middle of this Connor wants to “see Jude get married” Jude isnt part of my active house. I wounder if I invite him over and some good looking girl and let them game fill in the blanks…. Back to the nursery, Lulu has Lydia, an insane & Virtuose, skin like her daddy, who favourite colour is blue. The she has Isadora,(whom she is actaully holding in the old nursery) who is Neurotic and Athletic, has red skin and her favourite colour is Green. All this was just on monday. Loki working through the night earned a promotion at 3am to Con-Artist and earned me a bonus of 1248. I use this to re-decorate the girls nursery. When i had six toddlers. I has all the cots off one side of the master bedroom and all the highchairs, toys and pottys off the other side. I sold all un-needed items and made a lovely room for two. The computer lets me know that its Searfinas and Gabi’s birthday today; and Loki’s in a few days ( 2 days) Lulu gets her gardening skill up to 3.

I have Connor start his Masterpiece. I am too worried that he will never reach his “40 novels” my plan was to have him reach the 40 and them start his materpiece. At least this way I am certainthat he will get at least one. I could have him write the shorter novels once her has (if he gets to ) finish it. His last book “the scrapbook 4” got him 8025 in royalties, he would get 6 of them but he wont live that long. Serafina and Gabi both have their birthdays and that ugly hair is back. they are finally adults. Its also Lulu’s birthday in two days. (Loki being born before midnight and lulu and lana being born after midnight) remember Loki and Lulu are two of my triplets. Cassies gets that “fix the boiler” that bloody thing is never fixed. It has been fixed with everyone in my house.

Loki has the next two days off, and since all i care about is her Career, i have her run all day. Its the only thing holding back her Career. I wish i had realised this before she had started it. I would have done the same as Serafina. Connor continues his masterpiece. I make his mood as high as it will go, he is only at 15% after one day. Gabi takes a fancy to the maid, but she does to them all, this one is nice though. Loki finsihes up the day by working from home, through the night. Another day arrives and the computer tells me that its the twins birthday today. I know it wont be until after 8, so ill wait until everyone is home. Also today …

• Connor reaches 38% of his masterpiece
• Gabi reached Level 7 of Writing
• Serafina improves her Logic to 8

That was all that happened that day.

At 8 that night the twins grow into toddlers. Both get white blonde hair like Malcome, Izzy with the Red skin looks quite odd, i will leave her like that until she’s a teenager. Lydia looks very ghostly wth very blonde hair and very light skin. Next day its Loki’s birthday. I am sick of them now. Too many birthdays this week, and i let the computer do Loki, i know it will very late tonight. Searfina gets home from work and has gotten promoted to Fighter Pilot and a nice bonus of 1992. I get her a double bed and move her out of her kiddies bedroom to the “grown-up” floor, i get her a dresser too. Lulu is also up to Political Career 5, she needs to throw a fund rasier now, (ill do it on sunday) I notice that Serafina’s wishes are changing to “mushy” stuff, like “fall in love” and “have a baby” I accept them; but i will have to have a think about them. Theres no room for a baby anyway. I get her to teach Isadora to walk, since she’s “family orientated” she can teach then quicker. So i plan on leaving all the teaching to Searfina and Gabi. They are the ones with the most time on their hands. Plus lulu has never had any teaching come up as wish yet. A very differnt mother to her own. Loki has her birthday at 3am on the side walk, right after work; she gets that horrible hair too. Also she gets the choice of which criminal career she wants. She picks the Thief Branch; as per her LTW. Weekend arrives and its all very boring, Connor starts his day at 74% of his materpiece. Lulu masters his Guitar then brings up her gardening to 5. Loki brings her Athletic up to 7.

Serafina becomes best friends with Malcome, and while lulu is off having her birthday, Serafina goes after Malcome. She flirts a little, he pays her a compliment; so she goes in for the first kiss and asks him to stay the night. No1 cares at all. So much for adding a bit of drama, Lulu has obviously well gotten over him. This my my title idea, i thought Malcome was the spoils and the two sisters would fight. He is her boss anyway. Connor ignores the birthday celebrations and writes til he sleeps. he goes off to bed and i check his progress, he had stopped at 99%, bloody idiot. He wont finish it as he’s too tired, i make him take a nap and finish the book. I get 10,655 for this book. I send him off to bed for much needed rest. Sunday 12pm; Connors Royalties are 109,569. Not bad eh?

Chapter Two – Disco Inferno

We start off our monday morning with breakfast. I did have more than one table, but i deleted them all and just have this one now. I manage to get most of them here at the table. Connor is off writing.

Starting from the left we have Serafina (thinking about a bookshelf) She is blocking Malcome. Then we have Gabi, Hayden and Lulu, the 3 red skinned. Lulu and Malcome both head off to work leaving the other members of the family to look after Cassie and teach her. These busy working parents dont have time. They start by both stealing from the Political fund. Malcome takes 301, Lulu take 5000, woopsie. Go lulu. On Tuesday Serafina gets married to Abhrame. I then see thats he is 75 days old. Serafina isnt even an adult. I cant stand him. I get divorced. Plus he had a child with someone else. He brought 2000 with him. i donate it to charity, (1000 a time) He was there for such little time that i didnt even notice his LTW. Just as the day is ending, Lulu gets another chance to steal some money, this time she gets caught and fired. DAM IT! Dont think shes going to make her LTW (with time to spare) I made her re-join; but i am already realizing that i am going to have to do all the fundraisers again. In a fit of rage and jealousy, she breaks up with Malcome. We did try for a baby before i did that (but i didnt hear the jingle). Hayden and Connor both get ” want a grandchild” So maybe Lulu is pregnant. Hayden also wants to see Loki gets married, Loki is just waiting for Rusty to finish highschool to marry her off. Connor wants to “write 40 novels” He is only at 28, but Connor is 78 days old; that gives him about 12 days to write 12 more books. This all forces me to realise that i will get 2 more royalties out of him before he dies. He has earned me 300, 000 +. I am thinking i will get two more payments, about 150,000 more. I go check Hayden and see that she has 4 days left. Lulu trys for a baby again (just to make sure) and since i dont think she going to make her LTW, since she got fired; i have no idea what to do with her now. I am thinking that Hayden has really outlived her usefullness. I might kill her off. I might gets twins from Lulu then.

Here she is standing by the fire, with a hay bale. I was still undecided. But then i got off that

Well i did kill her; obviously. Did it by fire, obvously. Hence the title, Considering she was superhuman, it would have taken weeks to starve her, she would have died of olf age first. I was hoping she would die before the computer announced Lulus pregnancy and she did. This is the first Sim i have ever killed. it was quite fun. Connor called the fire brigade. (all girls btw) but the fire was out before they came.

Grim arrived to take her ghost. Such a pretty ghost. She had gotten 250,000 LP, her LTW, her portrait, completed cooking and gardening. Not bad going for the founder. Gabi’s and Sera’s birthdays is coming up, i will let the computer do it. just to give them a few more days. I also have to gets Gabi’s self portrait. I have everyone elses, apart from Cassie who is too young.

It also lets me know that its her (Cassie’s) birthday too soon. I didnt even realise it was Saturday morning, unitl i see Cassie playing video games, i set out on her wishes. She wants to be “best friends with lulu“, “play tag with lulu” and “write a book“

Lulu and Cassie bond over Hayden’s death and talk about the fire. Gabi (who is going stir-crazy) wants to paint 3 master-pieces, but i want her to finish her LTW, which means she has to focus on her writing now. She is about 5 or 6 i cant remember (and if i turn on the game to chek i will never finish this post) So i make her sit and write. Lulu gets out at 8pm on sat night (why she was in bed that early i dont know) to find out what we all knew, that she was pregnant. (she will be eating watermellons for breakfast) So now that Hayden is gone, there is room for twims. I will marry Loki out, as long as Rusty finshes Highschool in time. Hopfully gone before the babies arrive. Otherwise i might keep her to help out. Loki earned a Promotion (maybe she wants to stay) to Bagwoman, earning 52 an hour now. I notice that Lulu has reached level 9 guitar without ever been “told” to by me. It was of no use to me; so i never bothered forcing her. She got that skill all on her own sim self. Connor didnt finish his book that day; proberly due to him mood from his wife dying, Sims write quiker when they are happier. (dont they?) I decided since its Sunday, that i will throw Cassie her birthday.

Have a quick look at her family tree and see that she only has 1 grandparent left. I notice that they boy who i have ear-marked for her hubby as become a teenager too. I throw the party, invite over her aunt and uncle. Blows out the candles, shes get genuis, and it doenst come up because of that glitch. Since i hadnt saved it since I burned Hayden alive, i am not resetting the game. Connor earned me 90,000+ in Royalties. Go connor!

Chapter One – Its all about the Children …

Its a Family Matter

 

Since this is your first time meeting them. I shall go though them all. First we have Searfina, my Handy one, who is athletic and has joined the Military Career. Next we have Hayden (as an elder) and Connor. Next we have Lulu and Malcome (Both in the Political Careers) with the New Baby that i have yet to even mention. Thats Cassie. Below we have Gabriella (red skined) Shes my painter and my neat one. And next to her is Loki, my Criminal. Not here anymore; are Jude and Lana, pictured below in the family tree.

Family Tree

As you can see there towards the end are Lana (red skinned ) and Jude. I was sorry to see them go , but here was no room in the house with them all there.

So now that you have meet everyone, Back to the game at hand. I warn; i might take too many screen shots this time. Right so Hayden and Connor both want Grandchildren, so thanks to Lulu and her impending baby. Theres only room for one and malcome wants a gilr too. We just might keep them. Malcome already got his LTW which was to have 96ooo simoney, so when i bulldosed the house; he got it. As soon as she drops the baby; that point is mine. Must remember to get his portait. No point in wasting it. (pun not intended) Searfina has finally joined the Military Career and meets all her co-workers and who is there, but Jude her brother. Glad to see he got a job. I figuered its good to have her LTW as her job as it helps generate money for the family fortune. Her twin Gabriella, (red Skin) wants to paint and write. She does my portraits, i have Haydens, Connors, Judes and Lana’s. Loki my blonde (and pink) Haired bombshell (whos names means God of Mischief) is off to do the Criminal Career. Lulu is a Politician. Her charisma is through the roof fom husband hunting but i have never done it before (the career) and her husband is in it too. This wish came up for malcome and since he already had his LTW and i thought i was getting rid of them; i didnt care. Lulu goes into labour and had a little Red Skinned Girl called Cassandra, Cassie for short. I am thinking more and more that i should keep her and make her my next heiress, Gabi doesnt even have a boyfriend.

Well onto wishfulfillment. Connor and Hayden both want 5 grandchildren. which there wont be room for until they die or move out I am afraid. But if Loki and Serafina both get theit LTW; we might get another 2. I wounder if Sims outside the active household can count towards the grandchildren. Maybe Lana and Jude will have kids (not together obviusly) Connor also wants to write 10 Best Sellers and 25 Books in total. We have written 7 Best Sellers and 21 Book in Total.

As you can see from Connors Skill Journal, Connor has Earned me nearly 150,000 and tomorrow is Sunday. So another 47,000 added to that. So that should be 2 of his wished fulfilled in 5(ish) Sim days.

A few things about Connor while were talking about him; he is a Loner, so i have him write on his own in his own little study. Hes good, bookworm, unflirty, and Absent Minded. His Favourite Colour is Grey. Just to hammer in how very borning he really is. But the poor fella is surounded by girls. Id be a loner in house full of the opposite sex.

Nexted onto Meeting Hayden a bit more indept. She was quite good looking as a adult but now a bit pudgy around the edges as an elder. He wish right now is  to see Serafine get married, she has a Boyfriend, who she meet while a teenager. Who went into the Military career too. But i cant move him in As there is no more room with the new baby. Hayden is a great Character, esp with her Kids, she was family orinatated and just wanted to always play with them and talk to them and teach them things and get them on the honour rolls. She also mastered the cooking skill early on and use to cook the house meals and leave them in the fridge for when everyone was hungry. Here it is below.

Shes Knows all the recipies and has prepared nearly 100 meals. As she has a green thump, we grow most of our ingredients. If one of the girls was a Anglier, then i would rarely have to buy food at all. Its quite a money saver. None of the other sims know how to cook, so i better pick someone to take on the role soon, or we will be left with “nice food” I will go more into her gardening when i get a chance to really get stuck into it. She barely has 30% of things planted.

Next onto Serafnia, remember my military Career woman

She got family Orientated and Hopeless Romantic like her mother but got Handy and Athletic hence the Career. All her wishes are for fixing stuff or working out for hours on end. She has very few friends as a result of all the working out. I did manage to get her a boyfriend, which when i went to work; i found him there. Another couple sharing a careers, this one not by my doing. As an added surprise i find that jude, her baby brother, is also there. Thank god he found a job. Her last trait is genius, which she used to pracitce chess with Lana, but it doesnt come up for any wishes anymore. Here are the proofs of the Skills. =)

I will have her Marry the boyfriend and move out hopefully having finished her LTW. Lulu quickly becoming my concrete heir (but i am still a little undecided ) I Changed her hair to something that might help me warm to her. We will have to see what Cassie Looks like; Malcome is a bit tub around the face. But just in case i finally find Gabi a boyfriend, he had a wife, but i made them bestfiends and then asked him to break it iff and then asked him to go steady. Now he has to go home to his ex-wife, as i have no room to move him in.

Here is Gabriella. I think she is the nicest looking red skinned. But shes my painter and writter, so she stays in mostly.

Serafina and Loki’s only mission is to fulfill their LTW which is their Careers. Sera is going in the right direction. Loki on the other hand (who is my criminal) got arrested and since shes a workaholic, was in the red mood by the time she left jail. I was hoping she would be the first to complete her LTW and move out, as i could marry off Searfina and move out the Newleweds (hopfully i wont feel the need to impregnant her too )

 Back to Loki, she can work from home which is a huge plus ,but from being in jail all day, she is in the red in work too and now i have to bring up the red and then the green. Criminal Career is harder than i thought.

Lulu wanted to throw a party, a clitch while Haydens kids were well kids, meant that they couldnt throw a party. She would make the call and them Jump a few feet away. Anyway, planned the party for 6pm, made some food and drinks. Lulu wanted to ” play the guitar at party” and “have a great party” all were easily done. Everyone  “had a blast” Here is her new do.

I quite like the hair

Malcome Wanted to throw  ” Fundraiser Campagine” I invited who i thought was rice, this being the first one i have ever thrown i didnt know to make the sure i got donations. I just went around and asked everyone for Donations, at the end of the party after ” everyone had a blast” it said that i recieved 61, 730 simoleons, pity it doesnt go into my pocket. I think that was just from the people leaving the pasrty, not all the donations i asked for. Cassie became a toddler, and got the “Heavy Sleeper” trait. She has red skin like her mother and blond hair like her father. Needless to say i need to change it before i take a screeen shot of her.  Connor became an elder (having not written the 25 books)

Malcome also earned a promotion, he is a Major now. He is ahead of Lulu because she had to take Maternity leave. Loki becomes good friends with Rusty Golden, the off-spring of the golden couple i put in. Lulu has her own fundraiser and earns 71,603, a couple thousand more than her husband. Finally this week. Connor Earns me 68,642 in royalities.
