Generation 1 Week 11 Part 2

There was a SimFest being held at the park and, naturally, I had to join in the festivities.

Zeferino and Gudlaug used this opportunity to be all lovey-dovey.

Gudlaug later tried to show off her drum skills, but no one was listening.

Aww, Ezequiel is super close with his mom.

Tambudzai visited the Marquez household. She and Zeferino chatted for a long time, which earned some side-eye from Gudlaug.

Eventually Zeferino got the two women to get along by telling scary scories.

Gulnara was hanging out at the pub but left quickly as she saw Narcissus approaching (wonder what that is all about?)

Django came by to visit his girlfriend Kirke, and one thing led to another.

The "newlyweds" took their pets to the park for the first time as a family (Though it doesn't look like Oydis gets along well with her cat.)

Hardimos (Oydis's cat) did enjoy her tunes later.

Little Nimrod interrupted Valeria and Kostas's private movie viewing.

"Shouldn't you be in school?"

Gudlaug found out she is pregnant!

Maria and Yuuki have been rekindling their relationship.

Pratik (Eadburga and Aeneas's kid) is now a toddler!

Maria also found out she is pregnant!

Nazli came over to Valeria and Ayaz's place set up a playdate between Gerold and Mohammad.

X-Men Sims 3 Adventures, Volume 12

Bastet is a Cat Person and has the LTW where she needs to make friends with 15 cats. This is going to take awhile.

Above with have her with the cats owned by the other households here: Maya & Kawaii, and Hardimos Smith, Maggie Allerdyce, and Fluffer Baptiste.

[emmelfish]

Alright team, we’re in this mess together. 

So last time on The Only Way is Pleasantview, we found out that Darren had impregnated Brandi with her fifth and sixth bebs around the 20 second mark of entering her trailer (NOT A EUPHEMISM), and they hadn’t even spoken yet, let alone kissed or anything. Any number of things may have happened – they’re that attracted to one another, they both lost their respective spouses to pretty awful deaths as deaths go and that kind of raw grief makes you hella horny, they’re not getting any younger and don’t want to die alone, the LTW of 6 married children fills Brandi with determination, or any and all of the above.

And now they dance in their underwear, which, I’m not gonna lie, is toothachey sweet. I think I like these two.

Beau: Hello. I thought you hated painting.

Dustin: Can you not tell by my face that I do? I need a stupid creativity skill point to get a stupid promotion in my stupid career.

Huh, what on earth is that in their bedroom?

Why, it’s teenage townie royalty Sophie Miguel and Princess of Strangetown Erin Beaker in her gardening gear having a dance-off! I don’t even remember anyone inviting them in. Probably because I was too busy fixing pasties for Brandi’s nekkid bewbs.

Beau: Yippity hoooo, now THIS is what I call a party! Come on Dusty, you know you want to!

Dustin: I don’t want to want to, but I sure do! It goes against every fibre of my being, and yet that smustle is infectious!

Suse has that Worried Broke Eyebrows thing down to a tee, yet she somehow manages to make even that look menacing.

Susie: Hello, Mother. Where have you been? Finding me a new stepfather I hope?

Susie: TELL ME WOMAN! Don’t sugarcoat it! Is he pretty? Rich? It’s Armand DeBateau isn’t it, OH I CAN’T TAKE IT!

Brandi: Armand DeBateau? Yeah in a parallel universe seven years ago maybe, Watcher’s long over that ship.

Brandi: Presenting Queen Susie, as she gracefully glides through the ornate castle arches to greet her grateful subjects!

Darren: And what a beautiful sight she is to behold, some say her face has launched ships and triggered wars!

Susie: ... Yes. Yes.

Skip Jr. on the other hand couldn’t give a shit less about Operation Stepdaddy and proceeds to throw blocks all over the activity table.

Skip Jr: CHAOS! ANARCHY! YAAAAEEEERRRGGHHHH!

(Seriously Bran, are you sure you and Loki Beaker didn’t meet in a club one night and make the beast with two backs in a toilet cubicle? Because I’d wholly rename your twins Atom and Ceres if so. Oh who am I kidding. Loki in a club?)

Susie: YOU! What do you do for a living? How much money do you have? How many days until you become an elder? What are your prospects? Are your intentions with my mother honorable?

I learned something today, and it’s that if Dustin sits on the floor and does his homework in the doorway of the bathroom, Brandi has to hold in her vomit and it never actually comes out. 

(Note to self: use this trick on Circe Beaker, the most morning sickness prone sim I’ve ever encountered. Seriously, at one point I thought she’d glitched because every time she sat down she ran to the toilet again.)

Oh they look so happy. They have not yet spoken a single word to one another, but the couple that does autonomous romantic interactions together every three seconds, stays together. Just look at the Burbs!

Beau: You. What do you do for a living? How much mo –

Susie already covered all that, Beau. The answer to said questions was... inconclusive.

Oh hey! Whatcha doing, Suse?

Susie: Being Godzilla. I eatin all th’people.

Sure, that’s normal completely standard dollhouse behavior. Good. Do carry on. *Calls child psychologist*

Darren you’re about five hours late for the bedroom dance-off.

Darren: And I’m furious about it too!

Dustin rolled a want to purchase an mp3 player, and so took Beau out of what had become a somewhat unwholesome environment dominated by Darren walking around in his boxers. However, there were no mp3 players to be found on this particular lot. TRAVESTY

There was townie Komei Tellerman of Extreme Jawdom judging Veronaville’s Cornwall Capp though, so not a totally pointless experience.

Komei: I have a glandular problem. What’s your excuse?

Cornwall: Excuse for what? Existing? I’ve never been sure, really.

More importantly, why the hell is the cash register outdoors?

Beau: Achhh Dustin! This car smells of booze, dashed hopes and crime.

Dustin: Be grateful that I took you anywhere at all – hopefully by now he’s put some pants on. Speaking of which, did you not get the memo about switching into your summer getup?

Beau: ON IT LIKE GIN AND TONIC

Beau: You there! Random fellow kid! That shirt... where did you get it? I must have it, despite it being outside my limited wardrobe boundaries of white, beige and blue.

(Beau’s cassette tape T-shirt to represent his love of music & dance FOR THE WIN)

Benedick: Oh, I must be in a place where nobody knows who I am. Not my choice actually – I’m from Veronaville, and we’re going with the whole Baz Luhrmann aesthetic. Quite frankly I kind of envy the Capps with their sharp suits.

Beau: Wow, I’m sure what you’re talking about is super interesting but DO YOU LIKE TOMATO SOUP?

Benedick: I DO like tomato soup!

Beau: Frieeeeeeend!

Brandi: Lookin’ good Dusty! Hey the family that creates art together stays togeth –

Dustin: Chill out, I am so sick of telling people I just need a creativity point before work and am loathing every minute of this.

Brandi: Son, when you and I open our art gallery together, you do all the economics, ’kay?

Dustin: Mom, did you not hear – *sigh*. Can you at least get him to put some pants on?

Darren: Lovely leaffffffs 🍃

Beau: See, when the truth walks away, everybody stays ’cause the truth about the world is that crime does pay. Our bills at least. But that’s what’s wrong with the universe, right?

Beau: Oh hey Dustin I wasn’t talking about you I was talking about a totally different criminal have a lovely time at work make sure you eat healthy snacks like almonds and dates love you byeeeee

Dustin: Pfft.

Beau: HEY BENNY LOOK WHAT I CAN DO!

Benedick: That’s impressive! I mean I live in the same town as actual fairies, and my family’s mortal enemies are friends with like a clan of vampires or something, NBD... but aw yis!

Benedick: You do you, Beau!

The walk-bys are getting better all the time here. It’s Cassandra Goth’s parallel universe Riverblossom Hills opposite, Sandra Roth, in her speed-racing suit!

Sandra: ... I’ve never experienced summer. It’s new. It’s interesting. It’s different. My polyester is chafing me suddenly.

Oh my good grief autonomous child huggling. I can’t take it. It’s so pure. They’ve known each other for like three minutes. Beau, is it inappropriate to start shipping you off yet?

Beau: Never!

Whatever on Watcher’s green sim earth is going on here, I’m all for it.

Benedick’s face! Protect these boys. PROTECT THEM

Like from supernatural wolves that might savage them.

Hardimos: This house has many children and foliage, my pack will do well here.

Dustin: What the hell is going on here? Why are you still out on the sidewalk after three hours? Why is there a wolf here? Who’s the enthusiastic chick in the nylon suit? Where is our mother?

Beau: Never mind all that, did your creativity point get you a promotion?

Dustin: It did! Bestowed upon me now is the honor of lifting people’s belongings directly from their person.

Meanwhile inside, Skip Jr. is finally getting on the Find a New Stepdad train. And he didn’t even have to do anything, he didn’t ask for attention, Darren simply picked him up autonomously. Hey Daz, you have a hidden Family aspiration token?

Darren: Nope!

Family secondary?

Darren: Possibly? Seemingly you can never remember what you give us.

Enough of the sass mister, I remembered giving Nina Caliente a freaking grilled (Daiya or Violife) cheese secondary didn’t I?

Well you’re great with kids... let’s hope you don’t have a nervous breakdown at the prospect of dealing with baby twins just when you thought you’d be settling down to focus on your art with your firstborn off to college soon.

Darren: Well, I was all set to try to steal Cassandra away and she’s got baby fever so I’ve been preparing myself for my second fatherhood for years. Plus they’re easy aren’t they, they just fall right asleep.

Yes but firstly, Cassie wasn’t already saddled with four. Secondly, I’m not sure you’re remembering early parenthood correctly. Or maybe you are, Dirk’s pretty much the perfect sim all-round, he was probably a dreamy baby.

C’mon Brandi, right all those wrongs you did Beau and get your toddlers all trained up long before their childhood transition! Although frankly, the prospect of a kid with Susie’s personality up on her feet is terrifying.

Susie: It’s okay Mommy, I’d never murder YOU in your sleep. You’re my best friend.

I want still that paternity test because I’m pretty sure that’s what Loki Beaker said to Vidcund Curious before he metaphorically stabbed him in the back by stealing Circe Beaker. Never have those green smileys looked creepier.

Next time, we’ll head to the Dreamers’ pad for a little look at how Darren – thanks to time standing still when you’re not on a lot – essentially woke up with two kids on the way. Imagine that!

[annegirl13]

To begin with, here is your official Hardimos the Cat post for the round.  He is a Good Kitty and Gilbert likes him as much as his mom does. 

[snugsims]

Viola and Lev have adopted a new kitten! For some reason Lev chose the name Hardimos and Viola went along with it <3 

[simcerely-blog]

HAHA, Aoife gathered around for Hardimos’s birthday. What a crazy cat lady.

H: I’m a sexy cat now. Lookit this tail.

Generation 1 Week 7 Part 4

Gwenith and Hilding finally caught some alone time away from the twins while doing some shopping.

It was a nice summer day (as it always is in Foxbrook) and everyone was enjoying the weather.

Yuuki tried to flirt with Yana but she didn't quite pick up on his advances.

Filip tried to get into an exclusive lounge but was promptly denied.

"Don't you know who I am?" "I've never seen you before in my life, sir"

Angeline took her boys to the park (aww, they are wearing matching outfits)

Yana and Eadburga got into an argument.

"I don't like the way you're behaving around my man!"

Gudlaug is making friends with the local raccoon population.

Eadburga and Aeneas visited the local dog park and were so engrossed with each other they completely ignored their son playing in the corner.

Aww, Hilding is teaching Nadiyya how to walk.

"Hey guys, we were supposed to go hang out at the club together, are you almost done?"

Liborius keeps coming to hang out at the majong parlour (seriously, who keeps letting him in?)

Poor Turtle is now an elder.

And Oydis adopted a kitten named Hardimos.

There's nothing creepy about a late night date behind an elementary school playground, right?

Evgenia is now a child! She inherited the Slob trait from her mother. (Also, that hairstyle seems to be popular with the kiddos)

And Porir and Netta's relationship continues to be complicated...

[lemontreesims]

Let there be kittens! I missed the excitement of a pet in the house, and decided to adopt another one. All the cats in the shelter looked cute, so... meet the gang! There are four kittens and one adult cat.

Top left: Marko (boy) Top right: Peaches (girl) Middle: Hardimos (boy) Bottom left: EvilGenius (girl) Bottom right: Nugget (boy)

[annegirl13]

Previously at the Jacquet household:

Denise decided that her grief for Yves wasn’t going to keep her from living life. She went back to the bakery with Gilbert. 

Denise noticed that Breanna seemed to have a crush on Gilbert and encouraged her to ask him out.

Gilbert and Breanna went on a date and had a very good time. 

Denise adopted a cat named Hardimos.

[annegirl13]

“Bye, Mom!  Have a great time.”

“I will.  Take care of Hardimos for me. And the house.  And the flowers.”

“I will, Mom.”

“I love you, Gilbert.”

“Love you too, Mom.” 

[chellerbelles]

More pages from Volume 7

Tabitha adopts a cat named Hardimos. Hardimos and Remy’s cat, Puddy, have kittens.

[annegirl13]

Denise had to say goodbye to Hardimos before her trip, of course.  

[emmelfish]

Hardimos, what the hell are you doing here, hellhound?

Hardimos: There’s gonna be like five small kids here in a matter of days, combine that with the good foliage here and you got yourself a werewolf pardy.

Urgh – aside from the fact that this werewolf is genuinely following the Brokes around Pleasantview all the way to the Dreamers’ residence (really not that far), Dirk is doing well in Science, and somebody may have left Darren a dream date bouquet.

Welcome to a series I like to call ‘Darren Standing Stiffly At Things’. Exhibition coming soon at the Broke Dreamers Art Gallery... whenever they can afford to buy an art gallery.

Motionless when it’s great news, or...

... terrible news. Wow, so that scuppers the idea of a nice wedding at a community lot then huh. I guess we could take this ragtag group of the few people who ‘like him enough’ on... some kind of outing?

To the Pleasantview Fishing Pond!

Even vampires like Jennail Tricou like to get in some late-night fishing.

Jennail: I do a bleh and scare all the fish out of the pond.

You do indeed, Jen!

Jennail: It’s not like I even need to eat them, it’s just the satis –

Hold it. This isn’t about you Tricou, you’ll get your turn. Onto Daz’s Dream Outing:

Oh John Burb. In earning that silver gardening badge with all your Nature simming you totally neglected fishing, and are legitimately terrible at it.

John: This’ll never do when I’m trying to impress my wife, dog, cat and three kids on our camping trip to Three Lakes.

I never okayed that, John. Taking Jennifer ‘High Heels’ Burb and a feline animal that can’t live without her Anthropologie pillows camping is tantamount to spousal abuse and animal cruelty.

I do love taking sims to community lots just to see who the hell rocks up. As well as Dreamer’s gang of ‘friends’, we ran into none other than my boy Viddy Curious, Everyone’s Favorite Grandma Isabella Monty...

... and motherfreaking John Mole of all people!

John Mole: I’m gathering intel on everybody at this pond.

And doing an excellent job of being inconspicuous you are, John Mole. You just look so very, very normal.

Darren: I’m gonna hang this on my wall and call it art.

Dirk: Could you please make sure you cover it in formaldehyde and vacuum seal it first?

Cowboy Peter Ottomas, you’re everywhere!

Peter: Ah like fishin’! And after witnessing that proposal in TGI Fri – uh in Oresha Family Dining, wanna see how things go with these crazy kids.

Well, for that you’d have to be back at the Dreamer residence where Darren unceremoniously left his fiancée. And on that note...

🎵 Celebrate good times, come on!

Dirk: *retches* Does this nightmare EVER END.

Not when there’s so much dancing to be done! Also, are you retching because of the parental public display of affection? Or is it because Natasha Una has headbutted you in the chest and winded you.

Natasha: IT’S HOW I MAKE FRIENDS.

It’s sweet really. Darren’s little group of friends have made quite the little party for him. But when, pray tell, have you ever seen a group of real-life humans randomly dance around a makeshift art studio without the involvement of drugs or alcohol?

Even Natasha Una is joining the dance-off... awkward as she looks about that.

I knew it! There’s the culprit. Clearly they’ve all been at the Simslice Beer. Enjoy savoring that cold one while you can, Darren, because – 

– your new family have arrived, more specifically, The Twins from Hades (dang, now I can’t call Loki and Circe’s kids that).

Skip Jr: The road is a most adrenaline-inducing place to sing myself a nursery rhyme.

Somebody had the patience to teach you the whole thing without punting you over the Pleasantview bridge, SJ? I’m amazed.

Susie: I’m so excited! And I just can’t hide it! I’m about to lose control –

PLEASE DON’T lose control, with a personality like yours this building will be on fire within seconds.

BRANDI!!!

Brandi: What? It’s just one beer, besides, the yeast is good for the babies.

On what planet – hey, if it was Guinness you might have a point when it comes to iron and nutritional value and whatnot but...

... look what it’s doing to your poor betrothed, he’s drinking it through his fucking eye for pity’s sake.

Dirk’s a braver man than most, actively engaging these nightmare children in play with zero prompting. Hey I wonder if somewhere Skip Broke’s ghost is laughing its translucent ass off because his parting gift to the family was a pair of literal demons in embryo form.

All you Dirk stans out there, I hear your hearts fluttering at this display of adorable. Don’t worry, while I don’t know whether he’ll end up with Lilith or some complete random, he will be blessed with sprogs. We gotta spread those awesome Dreamer genes far and wide.

Fair play Beau, you got the glow! Spiky haired music man is impressed! Max enthusiasm as a child, where on earth does he go from here?

Beau: Rockstardom!

Steady on, let’s just see how things go. You’re gonna grow into a Pleasure sim so it’s either the Slacker career for you or... dates. Millions of dates. Ever feel like the Pleasure aspiration got massively sidelined when it came to LTWs? Why not throw the Gamer or Entertainment career in there or something? ‘Hey you can reach the top of this lazy career or, essentially be a watered down Romance sim. THAT’S WHAT YOU GET for wanting to play on the couch and take bubblebaths.’

Is Skip Jr. laughing at Daz’s newly hairy legs because I done a overlay? You’ll want your own someday, sunshine. Meanwhile I have a huffing pregnant Brandi jumping rope somewhere in the background because during her last pregnancy she ate when she wasn’t hungry (probably because she was carrying insatiable hellspawn) and her fat token has only just kicked in. I like my sims curvy, but girl rolled the want, gotta give girl what she wants!

(I hope to heavens Marla Biggs, Monica Bratford or Jane Stacks never roll that want. I’ll just ignore them if they do.)

The father and son that carpool together, get promoted together! Dirk’s getting that Medicine career LTW on track nice and early, and Darren’s paintings take too bloody long to paint so he went straight into the Art career. Did I ever tell you he rolled a want to ‘Quit Job’ before his first day?! I nearly falcon punched the computer screen.

And the next day, we get Dirkles promoted again because teenage careers are easy as crap to reach the top of. There ya go Dirk, at least now you get another scholarship, moneylover!

Dirk: I’m just happy to be helping people.

Stop being so perfect.

It’s another Veronaville drive-by! Living for Beau’s casual glance while taking out the trash like a boss.

Here you get a little peep at what I’ve done with my Puck. The version I’m opting for is a whiny ‘I JUST WANT TO BE NORMAL’ fairy teen who covers up all traces of his supernatural loveliness, much to his parents’ chagrin. I picture his little sis as the total opposite, rocking up to school with her wings and ears all out giving no shits whatsoever.

What the deuce?! Beau, do you have some kind of sonar for Veronaville residents? It’s like Lucy being Pied Piper to Viper Canyon boys all over again.

Rain concerns Hal. Heck, life concerns Hal. And it’d concern you if you had to live under the same roof as Albany Capp.

What in the world – Hal THIS ISN’T YOUR HOUSE, have some dignity!

Hal: 🎵Clean up clean up Everybody everywhere Clean up clean up Everybody do your share

Whawhawha – wait – DON’T LISTEN TO HIM! I had that all set up for the long-awaited backyard wedding, Puck what are you doing!?

Puck: Takin’ out the trash, V-Ville style!

THE CAKE HADN’T EVEN GONE BAD PUCK, GTF home.

Puck: I don’t want to go home, Hermia and Mercutio will make me lie between them while they do weird stuff to each other again.

I care not. It’s good character-building for the future story I have in mind for you.

Darren looks so stoked about being sick with the flu. Oh no wait! He got promoted again in one of the easiest careers in christendom. Hahaha, oh Ophelia. ‘Things have been pretty hectic for me’ – like two babies, a wedding and another two babies in a matter of days hectic? Or Johnny bringing you the soda with the caffeine instead of the decaf like you asked hectic. I love your old soul lady, but also, go hang with your age appropriate pals. 

Darren taking the not-standing-up advice pretty literally there while surrounded by gaming Veronavillians. Well, at least they’re doing something relatively normal right now.

You see what stupidity Darren’s sickness has brought? Brandi’s now having to make Grandma’s comfort soup in her wedding finery, with Beau providing the soundtrack.

‘Well at least you didn’t rent yours at a store called It’s Not Too Late!’

Darren: So in my Nature hobby explorations, I’ve really been getting into fish lately as well as leafs –

Brandi: Darren, I love you, but if you don’t hurry up and finish that soup so we can get married without you technicolor yawning everywhere and sneezing on the cake I’m gonna go full Hormonal Bridezilla.

Next time, I promise, the knot will be tied, the toddlers will age, and maybe, just maybe, the Broke-Dreamer twins will drop. Ciao for now!

[emmelfish]

Hello! Your blog is such a joy to read and your writing/humour is spot on

You’re so sweet, thank you! 💞 So glad you’re enjoying the nonsense here. You can find dat six pack o’ beer right here, under ‘simslice-ts2-beer-sixpack.zip’. As far as I’m aware I’ve not seen any issues caused by it… except that sims won’t leave it alone! It’s gonna be interesting at the universities. 

Also unlike traditional drink objects in-game it actually runs out, and pops up with a little message saying that someone needs to buy more beer which is fun! Enjoy 🍺

End of Year Tag 

@anotherplumbob and @beaella9 both tagged me to do the End of the Year tag, and since I’m home with my computer now, I guess I’d better get on it.  

I started Bluewater Challenge Round 2 in January 2017, so I’m going to start in those folders and pick one picture from each household for Round 2 and 3 (what we’ve seen so far, anyways). There’s a lot of them, so look under the cut. Thanks for the tag!  It’s fun to reminisce about how far I’ve come in a year!

Landgraab Round 2 - Abby Slater becomes a backstabbing bitch and Malcolm gets his heart broken

Delarosa Round 2 - Gilbert and Breanna are cute on the beach, and Florence thinks Herb is adorable

Tinker Round 2 - Stephen and Wanda both getting pregnant, and Melody being a great big sister

Ramirez Round 2 - The best family photo I’ve taken to date, Checo and Lisa looking snazzy at the fancy party they went to, and finishing eating 20 grilled cheese sandwiches! 

Larson Round 2 - Random townies making out at the store, Jodie’s reaction to finding Jason making out with his girlfriend, and the twins actually getting along for once. 

Jacquet Round 2 - Eek, a glitch!, Gilbert and Breanna being cute again, and Denise finally being happy with Hardimos the cat. 

Supernatural Roommates Round 2 - A beautiful picture of Cyd in Takemizu Village and the boys meeting the Wise Old Man in the Hidden Pagoda.

Kat Round 2 - The difficulties of posing cats for a picture, Faline jumping at the snore zzzz’s, and Samantha keeping one eye on Tara just in case she sets something else on fire. 

Kim Round 2 - Cynthia peeing herself after Bob’s bad dirty joke, Justin with the robot his dad made for him, and Malcolm freaking out in the bathroom at the baby shower.

Melody at Uni - Stephen saying goodbye to his baby girl, Brittany’s adorable sad face, and Melody being gorgeous while calling home

Malcolm’s Bachelor Challenge - The title shot, Malcolm kissing Charlotte on the balcony, and Malcolm’s face as Cynthia and Sylvia finished their pitch.

Landgraab Round 3 - Abby wondering what will happen to her after Malcolm rejected her, Malcolm and Charlotte on the swings, and Lillian looking through the window while Malcolm and Charlotte hug.

Delarosa Round 3 - Florence’s face while calling about the burglar, Flo and Herb’s staged wedding, and their real wedding in the greenhouse

And that’s it for 2017!  I played a little bit of the Tinker round before Christmas, but none of those pictures are all that great.  We’ll have to see what happens with them, and the rest of the residents of Bluewater, in 2018. I can hardly wait!
