Sims In Bloom: Generation 2 Pt. 72 (BIG News!)

Weeks after their adventurous night at the lighthouse, Heather started to suspect she might be pregnant again. A bundle of nerves at the prospect less than a year after her miscarriage, an appointment with Dr. Serra confirmed she was, indeed, expecting.

When Conrad came home from work, she was modding one of her computer games, trying to keep her mind off how he might react. He walked in the door having picked up Ash from daycare on his way home, and she turned off her game before he came out of the bathroom.

"Hey, I'm pregnant," she blurted nonchalantly. Conrad stopped in his tracks.

"Are you really?"

After the work they'd done together to help him through his grief, fear was the furthest thing from his mind. As he processed the news, he smiled. Conrad trusted he was ready to be a father, and the thought of expanding his family with Heather filled him with excitement. "I'm so happy," he said, pulling her in for an embrace.

Once Ash was in his pajamas and they cleaned up after dinner, they sat him down. It was still early in Heather's pregnancy, but this time they were more than ready to share their news. "Ash, sweetie, mommy and Conrad are going to have a baby. That means you're going to be a big brother!"

Four-year-old Ash smiled up at them cluelessly. "Will baby have fur like the baby kitties?"

They laughed. "I hope not, buddy. We're not that hairy!" said Conrad.

The next time they were in San Myshuno to deliver Ash to the Landgraabs, they all stopped in at Uncle Karl and Mortimer's penthouse before returning home.

Holly brought out her calm, dark-haired daughter Tetra to greet her Aunt Heather. Ash babbled away to his new cousin, who watched him curiously from her mother's arms.

"She's the sweetest, and she's getting so big," Heather cooed. "I'm glad I only need to wait about seven more months before I'll be able to have baby cuddles at home again."

Holly grinned. "Are you pregnant?" Heather nodded. "Oh my Watcher! I'm pregnant again, too! About eight weeks."

The sisters were due just weeks apart, and they celebrated their shared big news with Mortimer and Uncle Karl until Heather was due to drop off Ash across town. When they arrived at Spire Tower, they were greeted by Malcolm.

"Hey, so...some news. Miko's pregnant," he said.

Heather laughed. "Who isn't pregnant, Malcolm? Conrad and I are expecting, too."

As fate would have it, Ash was due to welcome two new siblings - and a new cousin - in the span of a few weeks, but for now he still wasn't sure why everyone around him was so excited. ->

Billie's Midsummer Picnic

Preparing a blueberry pie for the picnic 🥧

Too bad it was raining in the Magnolia Blossom Park :(

The weather was so much better at the campus so Billie and her friends went there, BUT for some reason her friends wanted to spend the Midsummer inside the University Commons even though the weather would have been perfect to spend it outside.

And the cafeteria person apparently thought it's perfectly fine to work naked???

So here's the midsummer picnic, it doesn't look like a midsummer, nor does it look like a picnic, and Billie hated the blueberry pie, because she apparently has the health food nut lifestyle.

yawl i just murdered Oasis Springs...

[lunetaj]

There's nothing Khloe, Bella and Gia would rather do than partying.

Their behavior certainly doesn't add to their reputation. Literally throwing money in the air has outraged people.

Of course, pictures from that day immediately appeared in the tabloids.

Alex and Samantha don't know what to do with Bella anymore. Yes, she's a teenager and they do stupid things sometimes, but their daughter's behavior is starting to get out of hand.

Sims In Bloom: Generation 2 Pt. 102 (More Winterfest in San Myshuno)

Early in the morning after Winterfest, Ray, the Landgraabs' driver, picked up Ash from Brindleton Bay. Heather was distracted on his arrival, because Lavender had woken and pulled herself up to sit for the first time. The family excitedly celebrated the milestone, but she dressed Ash as an afterthought, rushing to get him in clothes nicer than he ever wore in Brindleton Bay.

Nancy had rearranged her family's holiday celebration to ensure Ash was included, but she rolled her eyes in annoyance when he showed up in a grey and black suit. "I told Heather red or green for the portrait. Even John managed to find a red bow tie!"

Malcolm groaned while his infant daughter, Bridgette, fussed in Miko's arms. "He looks fine, Mom. Just take the photo so we can change."

Controlling Nancy was very particular, and she spent the timer countdown trying to get Johnny and Eva's twin daughters to pivot from their positions on the floor. Nonetheless, this was the best photo Nancy was going to get, because her family was anxious to change into more comfortable clothes and move on to gifts, eating food, and yes, even hanging out with each other.

Miko played songs on piano and practiced tummy time with Bridgette before her nap. Johnny introduced his sister to his youngest son with wife Eva, who was roughly the same age as Bridgette. "Deven Zest? You won't use your real name professionally, but you can't even give it to your children?"

"I didn't think you gave a crap what my kids were called, Nancy. You didn't say a word after the birth of Cristal and Noemi, and now you've got Ash and Bridgette to focus on."

Nancy scowled. "You've made a nice family for yourself, John. I'd say I'm proud of you but for that to happen you'd have to apologize for trying to take me down more than once."

"And you'd have to apologize for punishing me every day of my life for our mother's death."

Nancy pursed her lips. "Well...Happy Winterfest, John. Maybe this year you'll finally get that headline comedy special you've always dreamed about."

Ash hung out with his second cousins - Johnny and Eva's five-year-old twin daughters, Noemi (the blonde) and Cristal (with black hair). "What's it like to go to school in a big city?"

"We take the subway to school every morning," said Noemi. "And there are lots of basketball courts on the pavement outside."

"I go to school on a boat every day," said Ash. "To an island with a cemetery for dead pets!"

The girls thought this was weird and fascinating, and they swapped stories of what life was like in their respective hometowns. They knew little of their family drama and kept to themselves, uninterested in the conversations being had by all the boring grown-ups.

Geoffrey gave his wife a copy of Layla Delarosa's latest bestseller, Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang: Origins. The outgoing CEO made no secret of her appreciation for smutty fiction, and she flirted shamelessly with Geoffrey by their giant windows. "The last time you read a Layla Delarosa book, we learned to do that," Geoffrey recollected with a smile.

Malcolm cuddled his sleepy daughter, rolling his eyes at his parents, and Miko pulled a gift from under the tree for Ash. "It's a little something extra from your dad and me. I found it when I was going through some boxes in storage."

Ash opened the gift and glanced at the photograph inside with confusion. "Who are these kids?"

Malcolm turned from the sofa. "That's a picture of Conrad and me when we were kids. We thought you might want to hang it up in you and Bridgette's room now that it's finished."

Ash could hardly comprehend the idea that his father and stepfather had ever been so young, and he studied the photo in detail. "Were you two friends?"

"We were friends, and we're still close now because we both care about you."

"Are you hang out friends like me and Arron Kalani or Scotti Holiday?"

"Not really. We live too far away from each other to be hang out friends."

Ash nodded. "Like me and Pearl Richards," he said cheerily.

Heather and Conrad arrived soon after with Lavender, and Eva greeted her excitedly. "Please don't take this the wrong way, but it's nice to have someone else here who Nancy loves to insult."

Heather laughed. "As fun as it sounds to listen to Nancy all night, we're not staying long. We've got to get to my sister's place across town before she puts her girls to bed."

In the kitchen, Malcolm caught up with Conrad. Though his every promotion to investigative reporter had been the result of nepotism and not hard work (really true, I cheated it up every time), somewhere along the way he'd learned how to do his job. "So there haven't been many updates about the body that was found by the pier in Brindleton Bay."

"I can't talk about an active case file, Malcolm."

"I'm not asking as a reporter. I'm asking whether Brindleton Bay is safe enough for my son."

"Of course it is. It's not descending into lawlessness because a body turned up at the docks."

Conrad's stomach twisted. It seemed he was always lying to someone, but his captain would fire him without a second thought if he revealed a word of the case to a reporter for a news organization as biased and unprincipled as Simlandia National.

"What are you guys talking about?" Ash interrupted, and Conrad was grateful Malcolm had no interest in discussing a murder investigation in front of his son. "Are you being hang out friends?"

"We are," said Malcolm. "We were just talking about work. Boring stuff that grown up friends like to talk about."

"You should do jobs you think are more fun. Like running a bouncy castle! Can you imagine?"

He laughed excitedly at his idea and they left the Landgraabs in good spirits. They arrived at Uncle Karl and Mortimer's penthouse in the Arts Quarter when Lavender was ready for a bottle and her afternoon nap.

Infant Betta

vs.

Infant Holly

Heather marveled at how much little Betta looked like her mother as a baby, pulling up an old photo on mom Daisy's Social Bunny account of Holly in her crib with a dirty diaper at the same age.

Ash shared silly conversation with his cousin, Tetra, who was only three and still learning to speak. Conrad chatted with Karl and Mortimer, finding true crime-loving Karl just as curious about the murder investigation in Brindleton Bay as Malcolm had been. "No arrests yet. But maybe one day they'll make a doc about the case - hopefully after we've solved it."

"Please do solve it soon," Mortimer pleaded gently. "I'd hate to see Brindleton Bay step back into its more lawless times of the past. Especially with most of my family still in town."

Lavender woke then from her nap, buoyant and giddy as usual, and Heather's Uncle Karl took the chance to cuddle her. Sometimes, he regretted missing out on having children of his own, but sharing such a close bond with his nieces, nephew, and their children was a fitting consolation.

"Brindleton Bay is in good hands," Conrad said assuredly. "Not just me, but we've got a great team. We'll get to the bottom of the case."

Back Uptown, Malcolm put Bridgette to bed. He was still thinking about the body in Brindleton Bay, and Miko could tell it was bothering him. "Maybe you should start making calls," she suggested.

"Simlandia National only wants me investigating political activists."

"So what? If you follow your instincts and find a story, they'll run with it. Simlandia National loves an unsolved murder case."

Malcolm considered his wife's advice with a smile, leaving to do some research on the computer as their daughter slept peacefully in her crib. Malcolm wasn't supposed to work independently, but he had a feeling there was more to the investigation at the pier than anyone was letting on.

For the sake of his son and the story, Malcolm decided to follow his hunch. ->

<- Previous Chapter | Gen 2 Start | Gen 1 Summary | Gen 1 Start

NOTE: The awkward placement of the family portrait (not centred, Nancy holding nothing where a toddler should be but there are none) is due to me making a first attempt at combining poses to make a full portrait. Ash, Nancy, Geoffrey, Noemi, and Cristal are posed using the Imperial Dynasty posepack by @beto-ae0, and I used @rebouks Infant Insanity Family Photos posepack twice (same pose as the one I used for Heather, Conrad, Ash and Lavender in their holiday pj's) for Malcolm, Miko, Bridgette, Deven, Eva, and Johnny.

Also! I dressed up everyone in the Landgraab and Zest households for the photo and completely forgot about Ash before I set the poses and didn't want to set it up again, so I am once again blaming one of my sims for my own failings. 😂

NOTE 2: As for the clothing changes kind of going back and forth, I filmed events in one order and wrote events in a different order and when I realized it, I just kinda shrugged it off because I was already laser-focusing on getting later posts queued up. It all happened the same day, at least!

"Why is everyone wearing like a headband or tiara? Is it some kind of holiday just in San Myshuno? Should *I* be wearing a hat?" Sometimes the neighborhood was weird, but damn if the samosa weren't incredible.
