#also these are definitely not his kids but Katrina Caliente had two kids?

[intomybubble]

I’m still playing Sims 4 and so I made a household with a Sim of myself so I can try doing a bunch of different careers (for the items lol)

I ended up romancing Don Lothario and accidentally had his kid after downloading and trying out the WW mod (we had 1 date prior, and I asked for him to live in with me afterwards).

I wasn’t paying too much attention to his name (since this was my first time playing Sims 4 since mid 2010s and I don’t know characters or lore), and used the random name generator and named our daughter, Dawn. I did not realize I basically named her after him lol.

As things are now

We’re partners and “soulmates”

I go out to work (currently doing the spy career), while he’s basically my househusband

He was a creative freelancer when he was added to my household so he makes A LOT from paintings, and sometimes music

I gave him an variation of his default everyday outfit to give him glasses (bc I’m into glasses, but “lorewise” he spends more time at a screen for work so he started to need them)

I used a mod to change his “non-committal” trait into being a family man, and bc he’d still get tense from being “non-committal” (despite trying to get rid of it) I got a “carefree” potion from the rewards store RIP

I don’t 100% remember before changing it, but he was a decent dad beforehand. Now, its super cute seeing him chat and play with our daughter

My Sim wants to marry him, but I’ve been worried about him potentially refusing so I’ve just stuck with being “partners”

I did do a wedding on a different household (OC marrying Liberty) and that was a mess especially since I have no idea what I’m doing

I do now have actual venues to use in the future instead of the ugly base game park 👍

I did give my Sim the same necklace that he wears as a sorta “promise ring” in her outfits (I think its cute lol)

Bc I’m stuck on leveling stats, we don’t leave the house that often. But the WW mod has kept things… spicy without actual dates lmao

I think I’m going to try proposing and just having an incredibly long engagement soon…

Livingsim Legacy

I just kind of want to keep info about them on here as I rediscover them. lol

1. This legacy is descended from the very first sim that I made in Sims 4. That is why the last name is so on the nose lol. She was just supposed to be my tester sim to explore the game. I had this family before I got anything other than Get to Work

2. I actually recently madeover the founder--and her twin. Somehow she was in my library, just not her descendants. 

3. I will probably never change the name because it helps me remember they’re the OG sim family. 

4. Each generation has a letter in the alphabet that everyone has to have in their names. So gen 1 was Artemis and Athena. Gen 2 had Bia and Batia. And Gen 3 has names like Circe and Calliope. Looking at the names made me realize that I was exclusively naming my sims names from Greek mythology mostly because it makes it easier to pick names. Though Batia is Hebrew which is fine. 

5. In gen 3, there are 4 kids, 3 girls and 1 boy (technically five if you include Bia’s son). One of the girls is a product of alien abduction because she is definitely an alien and is not actually related to Batia. She’s the other gen 3 kids’ half sister because they all have the same dad. That kid’s name is Circe which I love since she can change her appearance similar to a sorceress. 

6. Bia died before I changed computers, but she has a son with some C name and he also counts as a part of gen 3. Weirdly enough, he also has blond hair. That branch has such random hair colors.  

7. Bia and Batia are not twins. Bia was older which is why she died of old age and why Batia is very clearly, even before the makeover, a middle aged adult and not quite an elder.  

8. Gen 2 are mixed. Athena married a white man whose name I have to look at again. So Bia had red hair--which no one else has--and dark skin like her mother and Batia is the lighter skinned one of the two with brown hair like her father. Back when I was playing I didn’t have CC and so for Batia’s makeover, I made her darker, but still lighter than what Bia’s skintone would have been. 

9. Gen 3 are multiethnic because Batia married a light eyed Latino man who is older than her. That makes them Afro-Latinx with some European--I’m going to go with Greek--on the side. 

10. As of Gen 3 when I opened the save for the first time in years, each age group is accounted for and so it’s been fun making them over and really trying to express the differences in age. 

11. When I play legacies, I apparently prefer a multigenerational house instead of them living in different houses. Though Bia’s son does live in Oasis Springs away from the rest of the family at the moment; however, I might move him back in. Because of that, I also prefer to not really have an heir; we’ll just follow that whole generation. But I might move them out so they can have their own lives and I would just do a rotational play like @allisas does it. SN: When I loaded up the save, Bia’s son was on the porch visiting so apparently I wanted him to still be close with his family. 

12. Speaking of Bia’s son, I think I’m going to make him an off the grid kind of sim because I really really want to play off the grid since they did the update. It’s going to be awhile until I can get eco lifestyle, but there’s still so much off the grid stuff. I might keep him in Oasis Springs or even move him to Sulani in order to explore those places more. 

13. Because I only had one pack at the time, it has really made it so that the make up of the worlds has been interesting. The Goths were probably culled. Katrina of the Caliente’s remains as a ghost but the other members of the household are gone. It is just my legacy family in that world now other than that. Oasis Springs has different people too. But the other neighborhoods have the usual people at the usual ages because they didn’t exist in that save before.
