Episode 13: Two stubborns under one roof

Looong Part, sorry in advance 😬😅

Tuesday, 10:34 am. Most people are at work at this time of day. The sun is blazing and the air conditioning systems in the buildings are running at full blast. This is also the case in the fitness center, where hardly anyone is at this time of day, let alone wants to exercise. But there are definitely people who need a little more exercise every now and then, so their inner urge often draws them here.

Detlef has also taken a liking to going to the gym. Now that he has more flexibility at work, he definitely has more time to do something for his own fitness. Meanwhile, his wife has a little more to do in the office today than usual, as Victoria had taken the day off. It was no long-kept secret that the Andrews' wanted to adopt a child.

And you're never alone for long in a gym *heavy groan* “hh, how long are you going to run around on that thing, Michael?”/ “H-hh, until my energy levels are low enough and my calves are pulling”/ “better not overdo it, you already look like a beanpole”./ “haha, h-h, so Peter hasn't complained yet… Besides, we've had a few culinary escapades lately… I can't see any more hamburgers or pizza for now…"/ ”hehe. You can treat yourself to something like that now and again, but you shouldn't eat it all the time…"/ ‘Yeah, right..’.

“And how is my son?"/ ‘Oh, pretty good, he likes the new sports club much better than the old one’/ ‘I thought so, I know the coach there from my youth, we went to a sports camp together once.’/ ‘Oh, cool… Well, he's really getting into it anyway…’/ ”I'm glad. It would be nice if he told me more about it”. Michael looked over at Detlef and nodded. “I'll tell him.”

While Detlef is working his muscles at the gym, Liane has had enough of her day at work. “Oh man, there are so many incompetent people in there… What have they learned? 'Can you please help me, Mrs. Landgraf? I don't understand this and that'. And my boss is a real beast… I'd really prefer Fiona. God rest her soul”.

“What was I even thinking when Victoria asked me if I wanted to help out on the editorial team? Sure, I like to work a lot, but writing articles where you have to make up nonsense is not my style. And they said at the bank that I was overqualified. That's nonsense, nobody is better with numbers than me.“.

Liane took a few steps towards the parking lot. “I didn't think the adoption would work out. But apparently they were lucky… I wouldn't be surprised if their decision suddenly resulted in unexpected offspring. There are always stories like that. The desire to have children remains unfulfilled for years and as soon as you adopt one, it suddenly works out. Hn, wait and see. Now I'm going to see if my child is at home. She said something about a job the other day.

As suspected, Katharina was home before her mother. “How were your lessons today?"/ ”Same as always, mom. Why do you ask me that every day?"/ ‘Sorry, I just want you to get good grades.’/ ‘The school has good teachers and I got good grades, what more do you want, mom?’. Katharina was often annoyed by her mother, who would like to see her daughter become a successful businesswoman one day.

Liane took her laptop and sat down at the kitchen table. She also had some 'homework' to do. “I just don't want you to miss anything“/”What do you want me to miss, mom? I go to school, come home, do my homework and you give me some extra tasks so that I hardly have time to do anything with friends here“/”you have time for that at the weekends”.

“Oh wow, the weekends, great. But that's not enough. And the breaks at school are also too short to chat about important things.” Liane looked at her daughter for a moment and raised an eyebrow. “What are important things with you, make-up tips or any stars?"/ ‘Oh man, mom, no!’ Katharina exclaimed loudly.

Katharina tried to calm herself down again. Then she continued. “We talk about the future, about what we want to do later… And occasionally about boys. Most people here already have a boyfriend or girlfriend"/ ‘You can wait for that, I only met your father when I was 20’/ ‘Great, so now I'm waiting until I'm old to finally be allowed to have a boyfriend?’ Katharina asked her mother with a horrified face. “20 is not old!”.

“Oh man, mom! The boys in our class are really okay,”./ “Ph, You say that and then they turn out to be bastards who have one girl after another. Like I said, you can wait. In exchange, you can study French for an hour after dinner.” Katharina gave her mother a pained look and whined. “But I hate French, it's so super hard”.

Just a few seconds later Detlef came home and noticed the tense mood. “OK, what's going on?"/ ‘Oh, nothing…’ said Liane in a dismissive voice. “Mam is forcing me learn French again and won't let me have a boyfriend.” When he heard that, he rolled his eyes with a slight grin. “Hn, Liane…"/ ‘What? After she graduates, she can do what she wants, but not now’/ ‘Yes, but why learn French?’.

“Because she should know the language reasonably well for our next vacation in Paris…"/ ”I don't want to go to Paris at all, Mam! I'm not interested in the Eiffel Tower or the people there"/ ‘Oh Katharina, please, don't make a fuss now’/ ”hnhn. So there are still a few months to go before the Paris vacation, something will certainly change by then,” said Detlef with a slight wink. “My husband don't support me, how nice,” his wife replied with a cheerfully ironic undertone.

“I'm not stabbing you in the back. I just think Kati should have more time for herself. She's old enough and I think that when we're in Paris, she'll manage here without us"/ ”Thanks, Dad. I know how to cook, how to clean the house or I could sleep over at a classmate's house for a while. That would be so cool”.

Liane looked at her daughter with a brief look of suspicion. “I don't doubt that you know how to cook and keep the house clean. But I know what other girls your age are like…"/ ‘Liane, don't exaggerate now, okay?’ Detlef said in a serious voice. Then Katharina looked at her mother with a broad smile. “Hnn, mom. I'd really like to know what YOU were like back then”. Liane closed her laptop, annoyed. “hh, I'm not saying anything about that"/ ‘hnhn, why not?’

Liane saw her husband grin a little again. He knew his wife's youthful sins, even if he hadn't been there for most of them. “Do you notice how curious she is again? There are just things that don't need to be put on the table here.” Detlef tilted his head slightly and nodded in agreement, “That's fine. But at least give it a thought, Liane. I'm sure we can trust our daughter”.

Katharina looked at her mother silently, with a pouty expression on her face. Then Liane rolled her eyes with a sigh. “I'll think about it, all right? What…what about that job you were talking about the other day, huh?”. Katharina wasn't very happy that her mother changed the subject, but now she finally had the opportunity to talk about this important matter for her. “Oh, that! I'd like to work at the wellness center after school"/ ‘at the wellness center?’.

“Yes, Mortimer works there too and has made really good money in a few months"/ ”Mortimer - at the wellness center? I don't believe that,” said Liane, extremely surprised. “Yes, you can believe me, and…um, mom, there's something wrong with the fridge”. Liane thought her daughter was just trying to distract her from the conversation. But after Katharina pointed out to her a second time that there was a strange hissing and smell coming from the fridge, the conversation had to wait until later.

I created the Langerak Family too and took som Sunset Valley liberties. Parker and Zelda Mae will join Kaylynn in ts4... Dustin and Iliana didn't make the transfer. You can't have that many living relatives in a TS2 remake 😉

[aprilgoth]

Langerak - Round 2 pt.2 Life for the Langerak family has been wholesome so far. Kaylynn published two bestselling novels. Kaydeen has an interest in nature, so he and Kaylynn went fishing at the park. Daniel met Dina at the supermarket and felt an instant connection, but he has remained faithful to his wife (so far.)

[parfumdefraise]

so i was sending teens to college and saw that parker langerak from ts3 was in my game (as a teen?) 😭 no i did not make him nor is he related to the kaylynn in the game but ???

[teaandcinnamonsims]

The episode where everything is horrible for everyone. Kaylynn finally becomes an adult, her father Dustin makes a confession and Zelda... Well, Zelda is just being Zelda.

[softdefault]

while out on a solo bar trip...

???: nova? nova: omg... casey? casey langerak??

casey: yeah! hey! sorry, I know we weren't really close but I feel like I haven't seen anyone from school for forever. nova: don't tell me you've outgrown the whole lone wolf thing. you used to be so shy! casey: ah, yeah, haha.. it wasn't really by choice though. nova: oh god, I'm sorry. I totally forgot, listen- casey: nah it's alright. everyone believed those rumours about my mom. it's alright if you did too, we were kids back then. nova: not at all, I never did. I was the weird kid with the wacky uncles and green cousin everyone liked to laugh about. I knew the struggle. casey: damn, that's right. I guess we were both quiet for similar reasons. nova: too bad, we should've been friends. maybe we could've struggled together.

[akatsukink]

two incredibly niche references but these two characters are very similar to me… first of all bc they have the same kind of relationship with men in their lives (nurse bendy has an incredibly sad story) and second, their hair color; kaylynn has natural blonde hair while nurse bendy has natural dark hair…much to think about

[simnationlifebefore]

"Cassandra? I need to talk to you"

"What is it Father?"

"The day your grandfather died, you said you dreamed of a fire"

"I see you've finally come out of your disassociated state, I'm surprised it took you half a year to ask"

"I'm your father, don't talk to me like that"

"I am equal to all, I will speak how I please"

"Your mother has a lot to answer for"

"You both have been lacking in parental care recently, I think you both should take some snark on the chin"

"This conversation isn't going how I intended"

"What do you expect? Yes Father, I'm secretly psychic?"

"Not at all, but here's my question. Have you spoken to your grandmother or aunts about it?"

"Yes in fact, they informed me I'm descended from a magical line of witches"

"No need to be sarcastic with me, Cassandra"

"How much longer?"

"Only two more minutes, and once uncle Michael is off the phone we can taste them"

"Maybe Daddy can taste first?"

"Nope"

"Bella, I'm moving to the Bay anyway. So why does it matter?"

"You just didn't warn me you'd move out during the holiday season"

"You know we've been having issues, I guess it all just boiled over"

"I'll call back in the morning, we have to sort out what we're going to do about the 25th now"

"What are you going to do, Mortimer?"

"Nothing"

"We keep quiet, you put your ring back on, and we behave so no one utters a word about what you did in the 1970s"

"I didn't take my ring off to hurt you, I took it off because I still haven't lost the pregnancy weight and it was tight"

"Please don't tell me this is our breaking point when you've been ignoring me in the attic for months"

"Just talk to me"

"I'm going to bed"

"Fine, we can just pretend our marriage isn't on the rocks"

"Oh stop over reacting, Bella"

"Be careful, Father. You'll wake the baby"

"It's time for bed, Cassandra"

"For all of us"

[nachoxpsi]

My old pleasantview file it's not that.. pleasant XD

Casandra have a happy good life with Dreamer and everything was nice.. but that took away the sauce and I started to mix everything up. And yes, I used to abuse the elixir of life a lot XD

I especially love playing as Dreamers, Lilith and Dirk deserve a very good long life together.

Everything is good now Kaylynn is living a happy married life with one my billionaire Sims.

and Don Lothario... XD

I love this neighborhood.

[lodgersims]

Jennifer is opening a salon today, with Lilith as her alternative stylist, and of course she asks Dirk to help out.

But things don't go super smoothly on day one and Dirk cracks under the pressure.

But Lucy's doing great in school apparently!

And Lilith buys a few instruments with her earnings. This is the first time she's really bonded with Uncle John.

[alishysimmy]

Not much to note this round.

[beebeesiims]

look familiar? griffin & eddie have been talking about leaving tomarang for a long time - and with myah having a second baby and felix needing a hand, they finally decided it was the perfect time to buy kaylynn & pj's house from griffin's cousin holden.

[aprilgoth]

Langerak - Round 2 pt.3 The Langerak family has welcomed a new baby - Sophia! Also, Daniel aged up to elder and threw a great party to celebrate.

[ecofinisher]

Ecofinisher's crediting list for "Ecofinisher's Sims 4 BASE GAME file"

This is my game file with the ideas and dramas I have put up together to make it more…..interesting.

I’ve seen various Simmer do them, some created every little thing on their own, others did use gallery stuff or edit existing buildings and I did somewhat both. I’m not very talented with buildings and tend to download other places or just use the existing ones and change it up.

I am also quite used to play with the existing Sims or ones from the gallery and from hearing about this with the sharing of game files I thought about making one too. I don’t expect it to be perfect, but I could put my ideas on it. Normal and crazy ones (I’m pretty sure in-laws crushing on each other is crazy, right?)

This save was actually started back, when I had three other packs active and would use anything. Youtuber "savythatsimmer" mentioned something about, the lack of base game files, so I changed my mind and tried to use only base game stuff, but it was challenging to me to not accidentally pick them. Sometimes I read how to “deactivate them” and did so to facilitate my job to use base game content only. It might contain something from the Christmas pack, which I ACTUALLY did remove, but it keeps showing me, that I’m using an object from there when I’m not. It was either a glitch here or I couldn’t really find it, which is weird, cause most of the time it was about a bracelet. If anyone gets a notification about that pack missing, it won’t be a big chance like a shirt or something.

Here’s the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1k2foELAi1NENgrd4Y3yHG_f672OVBv-9/view?usp=drive_link

or

The difference between version 1 and 2 is only, that in the first I forgot to complete the summaries of the existing buildings.

If anything doesn’t work, feel free to tell.

The following listed buildings I used were created by other users and I will list them down here in case you’re interested to look for their original creator.

I do have also Sims I used from the gallery, mostly the ones based on Sims 2/3 characters. Mainly, because they looked better, than my own creations. (Althought the River McIrish one I made once was hot for a Sims 4 character xD But I wanted her to look closer to her, you know…..)

Other Sims I made by myself are newer creation, others are based by my old sims or foreign media. (Cartoons and all)
