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.

Having to Start all over again.

This is now my second attemppt at my Legacy. As my new laptop’s hard drive has been fried. Biter bitter disapointment followed when they told me that everythign in “program files” was uncoverable. So like losing an original draft of a novel, the second attempt will never be the same or as good. So apart from my original character, i am not going to try re-create anything “though some things are bound to be the same with the the same first character”

So i have re-created Hayden, all her characterists, and in my hast to get to the same point i was in my origianl, i havent taken any screen shots or taken any notes of when they got something exactly. Right up to the day that Hayden has become an elder (this was where my hard drive crashed; 37 hours of game play gone)

To start with I am not going to keep saying “like the last time” everthing I do something the same as the last game. So Hayden ,on her plot, want to be a celebrated Five Star Chef, but not joining yet (though i could use the money) Going to work up her skill as much as possible in order to progres faster (while she has nothing better to be doing ) All terribly boring, going gym for shower, liberary for skills and toilet. I stalk the Journalism centre, as i want her to Marry Connor Frio, very nice unassuming husband to be. Build up the friendship right there outside his work. The next day I ask him to go steady, get engaged and have a private wedding. Connor wants to be an Professional Author, so i make him quit his job and get writing. Also every wisk they want i fulfill and i mean everyone of them ( this gets me in alot of trouble later on)

So Hayden working her way up fast (i forgot to ad that i had to make her join the working classes) and Connor just writing as many book as it will let him, all was easy enough. Time to shake it up a little. Babies… it came up as a wish for both and both wanted girls too. SO watermeloned her all the way. She gets the time off work and i have her learn all the recipies that she can for her skill. As we always need spares and i want red skinned heiresses all the way (Hayden has Red Skin). I Have the fertility treatment. She goes into labour. Twin Girls. Searfina is first, she has light skin like her Dad and electric blue eyes like her Mom. Gabriella second; Red Skin (Wahoo) and green eyes like her father. ONly the one red though. So just like she was reading my mind, Hayden wants another baby already, thinking that i would take advantage of my current maternity leave by blending the two, i though this was going to be a good idea. Pregant again, while i am looking after the twin girls, finally their birthday day arrives, Hayden goes into Labour. I let her stay at home this time. Loki is born at 11pm, pale like her dad, next one better be red. Next is Lana , Red, Wahey. I have my spare. Omg; out came another, Lulu, Red skined. I now have 5 babies, 2 of which are about to be toddlers. Hayden hasnt even hugged all 3 when her wish tells me she wants anther. I go again. Knowing that there can only be one, as my house is up to 7 already. Whats the point in denying her now. Since i wasnt pushed about anther girl, i let her eat as she wanted. She has a boy, i call him Jude (Patron saint of lost causes) Jude was my favourite baby. I called him Jude as he was the only boy of 5 older sisters, but what i found even funnier was that her favourite colour is pink. I think he’ll end up being gay. hehe.

So now i have 2 toddlers and 5 babies. I had to hire a nanny, there was no money left but there wasnt anything else to do; but with all the wishes being the things like pick up Jude and teach Gabi to Walk (things i had to do any way) i racked up the Wish Points. I manager to get them all to toddlers and manage to teach them all to walk, talk and poop. I cant tell you how relieved i was when all 6 of them went off to school for the first time.

School was easy enough, no-one was allowed to go over to anyone elses house. they all did their homework together and in pairs; did one wish or progress towards tone, ate their dinner then bed, then washed in the morning.

Serafina and Gabriella my first twins were finally young adults. Gabi got “Neat” which means with one click, i get a clean house. Serafina got “Handy” and having not gotten her LTW before i choose a “Milatary Career” .Gabi got “Illustious Author” but that came up the minute i got her painting for me. So i keep both of them at home full time to bring up their skills in their choosen fields. (it worked well with Hayden) The triplet follow soon after, Loki wants to be a Criminal, her parents wanted a doctor. oh well. Lana wants to be a “Chess Legend” Cant see me having time for that. Lulu Wants to be a Poletician. right so. I am not bothered what she wans, as shes my second spare. Two of my Triplets are Red Skins, and even though they are triplets, Loki’s birhtday is on a differnt day, becasue of the time she was born at. So i got the other two triplets (the red skinned ones ) the Fugly twins, as Loki is stunning.

To round up what i did next as quickly as i can, i kick out jude the minute he is a Young Adult ( i never find him a Boyfriend) Lana wont play her Ranked chess matches, some clictch, so i get her a job in the Medical Career and kick her out the minute she walks out of the building. Lulu (who has a boyfriend) gets married to him now that i have the space, i was going to move her out as a newlywed into Malcomes place, but she wants a baby, so i decide to keep her until i get both their portraits. Then ill move all 3 out ( i think … ) Hayden and Connor both got their LTW before they are Elders and connor can churn out a romance novel a day. His royalisties are 50, ooo this week. He will write til her dies. Hayden wanted to retire but i need the money, she can focus on her garden (she has a green-thump) Now that her kids are grown and her LTW is done, she has over 200,000 wish points and is basicly superhuma; there is nothing to be done with her, time to focus on the next gen.

So i know that the first Gen Heiress gets alot of attention and posts but i have growen Hayden up to Elder in one Post. I am terribly sorry is this is boring, i just wanted to focus on the Game and not the Screen Shots. I know its Said that if “you dont screen shot it, then it didnt happen”

I will screen shot my fingers off for the next post. I promish. But you can see all my old post and all the old screen shots from the last game in my older posts.
