Villareal: Chapter 6, Part 3
Afternoon tea then Devin and Luna head out on a date.
For ease of reading if the toddlers are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian. Amore (Italian) Love Che cavolo (Italian) What the hell/F Schatz (German) Treasure Zia/Zio (Italian) Aunt/Uncle
It’s not healthy for Joey to spend a whole day at his desk so mid afternoon he gets up and does a brief workout. He doesn’t like fitness one bit, unfortunately for him the watcher does. And though Joey wouldn’t admit it he does like the results. He would never want to be built but a little muscle definition never killed anyone, and makes picking up women easier.
When Devin gets back from her run she goes to find Luna who is waiting for toddlers.
Luna: Good run?
Devin: It was. Are you still okay to go out for dinner
Luna: Absolutely! I trust Joey enough to believe he wont let the twins get hurt. Hyped on sugar maybe but not hurt
Devin: *laughs* Did you invite your brothers for family brunch
Luna: Hugo is a yes, Max is all “wait and see”
Alfred: Mama back! Back for potty time
Rilian: I want help!
Luna: Rilian? What do we say?
Rilian: I want help please
The women shepherd the twins into the bathroom. Both boys are able to attempt to go potty alone but things will be easier for Devin and Luna if they will actively seek to use the potties instead of their diapers. The twins are less spooked by the process now but Devin and Luna continue to give encouragement and reassurance to them. After both of them are finished Devin and Luna carry them to the kitchen for some afternoon tea.
Rilian: *grumpy* Why carry mama, I walk
Devin: Mama and Mummy have a dinner date
Luna: And carrying is quicker
Rilian pulls a face and the women chuckle. Each twin gets a peanut butter and jelly sandwich along with some orange juice.
Devin: Eat what you can Rilian, no hiding food
Luna: Zio Joey needs you to have all your energy
Alfred: Why
Devin: He’ll be looking after you while we’re out
Devin and Luna go to the hall to practice one of Devin’s upcoming scenes that has slightly stronger language than they want their sons using just now. The twins eat and chat.
Rilian: *blows kiss*
Alfred: *giggles* Yay!
Devin: *from other room* Che cavolo!
Alfred: *spooked* She find?
Rilian: *also spooked* Me think
Devin and Luna walk back in and the twins do their best to look innocent. Devin looks at them and sighs. After kissing each of their heads she walks back out and Luna sits down.
Luna: Who can guess what Mama just found
Alfred: *sadly* Smash
Luna: Yes. A smashed dollhouse
Devin surveys the damage. It’s hard to believe a toddler could have reached high enough to smash it that much but none of the grown ups in the house are responsible.
Luna: Who did it
Rilian: We?
Luna: Both of you? Are you sure?
Alfred: *sadly* Me Mummy
Luna: thank you for telling the truth Alfred
Alfred: I… in trouble?
Luna: Mama and I will talk about it but it’s always good to tell the truth, remember that Rilian
The twins look downcast but as Luna gets them out of their high chairs they waddle towards each other for a big hug. Sighing Luna cleans us their dishes.
Devin: 10 minute call, we’ll be off
Joey: Have fun, I’ll go find the twins
Devin and Luna make it to the Del Sol Eatery at 5pm sharp. Better take a quick selfie for posterity. They have always kept time for the two of them in their schedules and Joey living with them has allowed them a lot more of it recently. They don’t regret becoming mothers but they still enjoy being a couple and doing couple things. Couple things such as going out to eat on a Saturday night.
Devin: Hello, do you have a reservation for-
Bonnie: *in monotone* Welcome to Del Sol Eatery, the best little gem in the valley
Devin: Thank you. If we could-
Bonnie: *monotone continues* We offer our customers a range of dining experiences from experimental food to classic ice cream with a Del Sol flair. We have seating options at both bar height and regular height so you are sure to be satisfied
Devin: Lovely. Our reservation is for two-
Bonnie: *monotone continues* In the event of emergency please vacate the restaurant through the front exit in an orderly fashion. Please do not call the fire brigade if you see the chefs brandishing fire, it is part of their process
Devin: I know all about having a process
Bonnie: Hmm
Devin: We’re Mrs and Mrs Villareal, table for two
Bonnie: *in monotone* Our smaller tables have been overbooked this evening. If you wish to file a complaint please see management
She then turns and gestures towards a table the pair assume she wants them to go to. Deciding not to chance further the conversation with the host they walk up the stairs past the fountains to a table overlooking the chef stations.
Waiter: Here are your menus
Devin: Grazie. Can we have a placemat please
Luna: And crayons!
The waiter doesn’t take long to get them and Luna sets about filling hers in while Devin reads the menu to her.
Waiter: Hello again, have you made your choice ladies?
Devin: Simsmapolitan for me please, Luna wants…
Luna: *busy colouring* Whichever looks the prettiest
Waiter: Okay. And for meals?
Devin: Artisan fish trio sounds appetising, one of those please
Luna: And I’ll have the leprechaun one
Waiter: Leprechaun one?
Luna: *humming* The clover salad thing please
The waiter takes their menus back and a bemused Devin grins at Luna.
Devin: You having fun reveling in your childish trait amore mio
Luna: *smiling* Absolutely schatz. I love our boys but I do enjoy colouring without anyone trying to snatch the crayons

simshaderoom #SSRBreakups #DeangeloBolton has filed for divorce from #LunaVillareal, his wife of just over a year. Infidelity is listed as the reason for the split, but no word on who was doing the cheating. D-Lo wants full custody of their two children together and we are told a prenup was signed. Single D-Lo was a menace in these sim streetz 😏. Do you think he is a changed sim? Will Mizuki get her man back? We miss both of them. Please come back to simshaderoom.
dizzydes Wow. Another marriage over because these wives don't want to be faithful anymore. See what you started Queen... Y'all can keep knocking on my door though. I'm happily single and have enough love to share. Good for you with that prenup bro!
skyeisthelimit Bye ashy!
rubberbandshan Ooop! Skye! Is that for dumbass Dizzy or your step mom?
skyeisthelimit EX step never my mom 😉
kingb Dizziot. Sirrr. It’s giving BK is paying you dust and you're sick over it. Saying anything at this point. Just admit you fucked up including the Queen in your stay relevant by any means necessary actions. And then please keep her name out your mouth.
anon Not to be messy but who do you think D-Lo cheated with? You think him and his “business partner” were making beautiful music in the studio?? 👀😏😅
b&qforever Absolutely not Anon. Ain’t no BK cheating or divorce happening. Ever. And I think Luna cheated. How you get them is how you lose them…
wildbutterfly I don’t care who’s cheating. Someone tell me when they’re casting for D-Lo’s bachelor challenge. I would cut a bish to find out how does it feel.
soheaux Ha! The way I too would be a heaux on national tv for my man D-Lo…. Sign me up.
kingb I’m here for this reality show. For the Love of D-Lo! I need BK to be the host. You think he would accept a male contestant? Asking for a friend…
c.spiracy Hmm. I would like to see this. If I could reveal my identity, I might even apply. Unfortunately we all know D-Lo’s one true love is Bailey Kay. He’ll never be happy with anyone else. Maybe he'll settle for a clone version so Lo and B can finally live their happy ever after.
rubberbandshan I caaaan’t with y’all or this idea. Ok I’m lying. I might could tune in if this became real. I like a little mess from time to time. d-lo i know you’re off simshaderoom shenanigans right now but would you be down????
d-lo 👀
#d-lo is back on the market#hide your wives hide your simselves#or not 😏😉😅#you think d-lo would do a show?#who in your game would sign up?#bklegacy#bklgen2#simshaderoom#deangelo bolton#luna villareal#dizzy des#bailey kay#rubberbandshan#skye bolton

Keeping it Real with The Villareal’s
The VanHaunts and the Villareals were enemies for decades…generations actually. When Jacques and Astrid VanHaunt became involved it was hell on earth for the two of them, until the families finally decided this may be the answer to their ongoing feud. Jacques knew it would be, it would just be a matter of time.
Jacques was the oldest of four of Xavier and Lorna Villareal children. He was always thinking ahead of the game from the time he could make decisions. His family was slowly loosing their power throughout Windenburg, and when he met Astrid he knew what needed to be done. So he married her.
Astrid was the only child of Lionel and Margaret VanHaunt, a shy and timid young girl, but not naive, except when it came to Jacques. She excelled in school and stayed to herself and studied hard. At first she was not impressed with Jacques, and tried to avoid him, but soon he won her over by his charm. That charm was a guise, and after their youngest child Max was born, she has been trying to find a way out of the marriage.
The oldest of the Villareal’s children, Hugo Villareal is a junior in High School and loves history and food, but not in that order. His dream is to go to culinary school in Windenburg and become a Master Chef. A loner, and quiet, he is more like his mother.
Luna Villareal, however is the complete opposite of her older brother. She is outgoing, friendly and wants to be the leader of every club or organization she is involved in, which is many. She continues to tell her mother that she wants to move to Del Sol Valley when she grows up and be the next Oprah Winfrisims.
Max, who is just a toddler is already a handful. Astrid knows when he gets older he is going to be their problem child for sure.

Nishidake: Chapter 6, Part 2
Guess who's coming to dinner?
The doorbell was Luna!
Charlie: Luna! Hey, what are you doing here?
Luna: We agreed that we would move flat fam catch ups to your Monday so your work shift didn’t get in the way
Charlie: We did?
Luna: Sorry, I keep forgetting you’re not a phone person. Kaori responded that it was fine
Charlie: Well come in, I guess I better find something to cook
Luna: Where’s Kaori?
Charlie: Did she not put in the… what do you call it
Luna: Group chat
Charlie: Right, that, she’s at work. She’s an astronaut now
Luna and Charlie head inside and Charlie shows Luna their new set up. Sensing it may be a while until food is ready Clover goes and has a nap on the dog bed. Rahul and Cassandra get here only slightly late. Lavina is still refusing to babysit Mercedes, Savannah and Viola at the same time since the three don’t get along so they had to drop Viola with Uncle Alexander. Devin of course was here fashionably early and is super happy about… something. I’m going to guess she’s super happy about her look because I still am.
Charlie: But why get your nails painted if they’re just going to be skin colour?
Luna: It’s about the experience Charlie, some of us prefer pampering to peddling
Charlie: I actually can’t ride a bike
Devin: *sing song voice* I’m here! Please, please, hold your applause
Clover: *barks* Shinny
Devin: Thank you Clover, you’re too kind. Hey Char, love what the watcher has done with the place
Charlie: It was rebate day so I guess Kaori ordered some stuff
Luna: Don’t mind her, she’s on a “let’s all believe in the watcher” crusade
Devin: I just think it’ll be easier for the bambinos if we’re on the same page
Charlie: Wait, did I add that spice already?
Devin: Please tell me this is going to be good, all they had on set today was chocolate cake so I starved
Luna: Schatz! Why didn’t you eat the cake
Devin: *sighs dramatically* If you eat the cake then you get frosting on your face and have to go back to make up and Rudolphus gets mad and gives you a lecture and then you have to recentre to get back into confident “I can totally kick bugs butt” mode. The whole thing is exhausting, far easier to get your sugar from leftover toddler dessert
Luna: I knew it wasn’t Joey who raided the cupboard
Devin: I was just trying some method acting for my pirate role in case this one gets good reviews. Clover gets it, sometime you just have to steal some good food right?
Clover: *barks* Right!
Kaori: How is the pregnancy going
Cassandra: It’s going slowly. I am getting more nauseous than normal though
Kaori: Do you think that could mean a boy? Or maybe triplets?
Rahul: *sighs* Triplets would be great
Cassandra: And how would I feed three babies with two breasts
Rahul: You always get engorged easy, you’d have plenty of milk
Kaori: Engorgement sounds painful
Cassandra: It is for a bit but so long as I don’t stop pumping cold turkey I seem to survive the pain
Devin: So this is… what
Luna: Tajine. Coming from North Africa the word itself comes from Arabic and further back Ancient Greece. Although some scholars believe the word itself is of Persian origin. It’s normally cooked in special pottery with a hat type piece that keeps the moisture in
Devin: *blinks* So this is… what? Cheat tajine?
Charlie: I resent that accusation
Devin: But Char you’ve got no hat piece
Charlie: Our matching hats are enough, trust the process. It’s a simple dish, I promise, it’ll be excellent. Totally befitting your hoity toity taste buds
Devin: *fake coughs* Refined *fake cough*
Charlie: That was the worst acting I have ever seen
Devin: Grazie
Charlie: Done! Now out of my kitchen
Charlie shepherds Devin and Luna to the table where everyone grabs a plate of food and sits down to catch up. They all saw each other recently at the Villareals but there are some topics you can talk about with children around, and others that you can’t talk about.
Rahul: I mean we already have some name ideas from the last pregnancies but we’re waiting for the ultrasound to tell us how many to expect
Devin: Luna and I have news actually. We’re going to look into getting a science baby
Charlie: Yeah? I think my sister is thinking of that to, but she’s not sure how safe it is yet
Devin: Well we can’t exactly use a plain old surrogate, the papers would lampoon me. And news would be bound to get out about Luna’s postpartum being the reason she wasn’t carrying
Cassandra: It wouldn’t get out from us
Devin: Emisia would probably leak it
Luna: You say that but you know if it got out she and Max would likely commit murder
Charlie: I forgot evil runs in both your families, you two are such a match. So Devin, how’d I do
Devin: With the cheat tajine?
Kaori: Cheat tajine?
Rahul: How do you cheat tajine?
Devin: You deny it its hat. But Char I will concede, this does taste excellent
When the meal is finished Kaori clears the plates.
Cassandra: I hope you don’t mind that I didn’t finish
Charlie: Don’t worry about it, I made far too much
Kaori: You’re pregnant so you’re allowed to be weird about food
The group laughs and begins to get up and sort out heading to their own homes. Cassandra is a bit wobbly though so Rahul makes sure to check on her.
Rahul: Are you okay my darling?
Cassandra: I think it was a bit spicy for me at the moment
Rahul: If you want on the way back to Henford we could swing by the donut place with Viola
Cassandra: If we go without them the twins will sulk for days
Rahul: I’m willing to suffer their pouting to keep you well, remember, you’re meant to be eating for at least two
Rahul goes to take another look at the indoor garden and Luna checks in with Cassandra.
Luna: Will you find out the sex of this one
Cassandra: We don’t usually, we like the surprise. Whoever is in here should find no pushback from Viola for sharing a room either
Luna: I mean… were your girls really that bothered by a third kid?
Cassandra: Yes. They hated the idea of her and disliked her when she arrived. Truth be told I'm still not sure if they like her. But that doesn’t mean your twins will be mad! Please don’t change your mind on my account, I couldn’t stand the scolding from Devin
Luna: *laughs* Don’t worry, I think Alfred and Rilian would like a baby sibling, they seem more independent than your girls were
Cassandra: I think I still have bruises on my leg from Mercedes holding on so tight
The women laugh and Charlie and Kaori see everyone out. All in all, a good catch up.

Villareal: Chapter 6, Part 5
Joey's night concludes and preparation for family brunch begins.
CW: Moderate sim spice. Content Warning Guide
Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian. Bambino/s (Italian) Male child/children Buongiorno (Italian) Good morning Caro (Italian) Dear Nonna/Nonno (Italian) Grandfather/Grandmother Piccolo (Italian) Little one Zia/Zio (Italian) Aunt/Uncle
Joey wakes up with a start. He’s lying on his bedroom floor?
Marianna: Are you okay?
Joey: Marianna? What happened? We were just…
Joey pushes himself up feeling very confused. He was just at the nightclub. He’s used to the quickness of loading screens but this was something different. His genius mind is telling him to remain calm and gather facts but his paranoid trait is panicking.
Marianna: See I’ve never actually teleported someone with me before, I think I had the calibration off so you kind of passed out
Joey: Passed out? Yeah but- did you say teleport?
Marianna: Yes, I hope you’re okay. I was just reading your mind and I saw your photos and I hoped you might want one of real me
Joey: Reading... my... mind?
Marianna: It’s a thing we can do
Joey: Who is we?
Marianna: Oh you know… aliens
Joey is taken aback. Aliens? He always knew they were real but the research on their abilities was spotty at best. Unsurprisingly they didn’t exactly offer themselves up for tests. And he’d just…
Joey: Oh please tell me I’m not pregnant. I can’t be pregnant
Marianna: What? No! I’m not one of those ones. I was left in a carrier myself, I wouldn’t do that to a kid. I just… I know I’m a bit older than the other women in the photos…
She looks at the wall and folds in on herself a bit.
Joey: You’re saying… you read my mind, and know that me and the watcher need to keep track of my numbers with photos… and you teleported us here… because you were nervous that I wouldn’t want a photo of you
Marianna: I thought… you seemed to enjoy our time together so… you might want a photo of what I actually look like
Joey: I’ve never seen an alien before, at least not that I know of. But if you felt enough of a connection when we were woohooing, I’d be honoured to see the real you
Marianna: *smiling* Don’t freak out
Joey tries his best to keep his face straight as Marianna stretches. She changes from the human outfit into a cozy sleepwear number in alien form. It happened so fast Joey isn’t sure he actually saw the change happen. He has so many questions! But he has to remember this is stressful for her to.
Joey: You look amazing. Your eyes are spectacular. Your skin… you were glowing earlier right?
Marianna: *giggles* yes. When our emotions get strong it can be hard to hide and you just… made me feel all kinds of things
Joey: Likewise
He grabs his camera out and gets a shot of her to join the others.
Joey: I’m glad you didn’t mind read about my photos and decide to teleport me into an incinerator
Marianna: *giggles* No! Your mind… You make love but you respect the ones you’re with. Not incinerator worthy
Joey smiles and moves towards her, taking one of her hands and sliding her closer to him.
Joey: I don’t suppose you in any way used your alien powers on the dating app
Marianna: *blushing* Maybe. But I swear I didn’t coerce you in person, and I double checked your mind before-
Joey cuts her off with a kiss. She puts her arms around his neck and relaxes into him. She may not have been his typical type but seeing her, talking to her, everything that happened in that nightclub was what he wanted. Heck, he was glad she thought him worth messing with an app for.
Marianna: Why
Joey: Hmm?
Marianna: Why are you glad about that
Joey: Oh, mind reading. I guess I’m flattered my profile was attractive enough to warrant your effort. Can I give you a proper thanks?
Marianna: You did in the club
Joey: *whispers* Read my mind. You’ll see I can do better if you'd like to go again
Smiling Marianna uncurls herself from him and lets him unbutton her shirt and slide her pants off.
Joey: How did you change outfits anyway
Marianna: Oh that outfit was connected to my disguise. Remove the disguise and I can be wearing something else entirely
On his knees now Joey looks up at her.
Joey: Call me biased but I think you look breathtaking wearing nothing at all
Before she can reply Joey pulls her close and lets his mouth go to work. He is intrigued with the noises she makes. He thought he’d heard most of what women could sound like but the alien tone of her voice was something new. When she seems wet enough he stands up and she helps him out of his clothes. He thinks about what they could do next…
Marianna: The third option sounds good
Joey: *laughs* Try to stop reading my mind and just be in the moment
Joey hadn’t thought he’d be interested in woohoo with an alien but his time with Marianna was making him rethink his stance. A woman is a woman after all, and Marianna certainly had experience. He tried to hold out but with those alien vocals she got him to release even quicker than the last time.
Marianna: *softly* don’t worry, I take it as a compliment
Giving him a final kiss Marianna begins to redress while Joey cleans up. Unfortunately his paranoid brain still hasn’t settled down.
Marianna: Joey, I haven’t impregnated you. Relax
Joey: Is it okay if I like, tell people…
Marianna: *laughs* You’ll have a photo of me on your wall, I’m fairly sure they’ll believe you woohoo’d an alien
Joey walks her to the front door and watches her go, again somehow missing her changing back into her human disguise even though he never took his eyes off her. Pondering the events of the night he locks up and heads to bed, hoping he’ll be able to get enough sleep to put in an appearance at family brunch.
The sun rises alongside Luna and Devin. In the room next to theirs two toddlers yawn and greet the day, racing each other to their potties.
While Luna tackles some chores that need doing Devin and Joey pull together to prepare brunch. While Joey works on bagels Devin sorts out place settings.
Devin: Did you have a good night
Joey: I did! I woohoo’d an alien
Devin: *dubiously* How much did you drink
Joey: I’m serious! I’ll show you the photo later
Devin: It’s not an in action shot is it? Because I love you but there are limits
Joey: No! But it’s got me thinking, there must be other occults out there
Devin: Focus on the *Joey spills stuff* food…
Joey: Don’t panic, I’ll clean it up
Devin: I’ll give you a hand when I’m finished this
Joey: But like I was saying, since aliens do exist on earth some of the other stories must be true
Devin: What stories? Some of us spent our time learning Shakespeare not becoming cryptozoologists
Joey: I wouldn’t woohoo bigfoot! Unless you know bigfoot had a hot human woman form... But if I could land a mermaid, a vampire and say… a werewolf, then I could be the most experienced sim in game! Like how many other sims could claim that achievement?
Devin: Dream big little brother. How’s your game coming
Joey: Slowly, I’ve put the beta out and I’m waiting for reports from play testers. Should be ready for a final polish after brunch though
Devin: If you need someone who doesn’t understand video games to test I’m happy to help
Joey: *laughs* That’s not a terrible idea sis
Devin: It’s my idea, of course it’s great
The sound of wobbly footsteps can be heard in the corridor, the twins are up.
Joey: Uh oh, here comes trouble
Devin: Buongiorno bambinos! Did you not feel like sleeping in
Alfred: No mama. We be awake for family
Rilian: Yes. Nonno and Nonna coming?
Devin: Absolutely. Did you two get dressed all by yourselves
The twins beam and chatter over each other excitedly before sitting down by the counters and spending time on their tablets.
Devin: That’s the table set. I’ve pushed the high chairs into the hall so we can all fit. Alfred, Rilian, are you okay with sitting on the bench?
Twins: *too engrossed in screens to reply*
Devin: I’ll take that as yes. Are your bagels finished yet
Joey: Not just yet. Trust the process, they’ll be good
Devin walks over to her sons hoping that they’ll listen more the closer she is to them.
Devin: Any requests for breakfast?
Alfred: Cereal!
Devin: Caro we have cereal when we don’t have guests. On Sundays we get nice breakfasts. Rilian?
But Devin’s picky eater is ignoring the question about food.
Devin: Mama could make… omelettes, French toast, pancakes-
Alfred: Yes!
Devin: Pancakes, si? Oh looks like Zio Joey has finished making bagels for us. What do we say?
Alfred: Thank you Zio Joey
Rilian: Thanks Zio
Devin: That’s my bambinos. Mama is so proud of you remembering your manners
Rilian: Mama tell Mummy?
Devin: Si, I will tell Mummy
Joey: When did this stereo break? I swear it was working when I left last night
Devin: I figured you’d probably be the best one to fix it
Joey: *starts fixing* And what if I get electrocuted?
Devin: You know tech, you’ll be fine
Rilian: Go Zio Joey!
Alfred: Zio can do!
Joey: I suppose. Gosh I hope Deanna is getting better at her robots, she got fried last time I visited
Devin: She enjoys tinkering, I guess some zaps are the price to pay. Okay bambinos, mama’s going to make the pancakes

Villareal: Chapter 6, Part 13
Next season of ZBB begins filming
CW: Low level sim spice. Content Warning Guide
For ease of reading if the toddlers are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian. Amore (Italian) Love Buongiorno (Italian) Good morning Ciao (Italian) Hello/Bye Schnucki (German) Sweetie but doesn’t have an exact translation
Devin wakes up and kisses her yawning wife. After checking that the boys are still sleeping she ducks in the shower so she can have breakfast with Luna. On her way to the breakfast table she runs into a madly grinning Joey who is scoffing his food.
Devin: Ciao
Joey: Buongiorno. Tuesday is coming over before work so… don’t barge into the gym okay sis?
Devin: *laughs* someone woke up in the mood
Joey: Having a spin before work stops me flirting with interns so everyone wins
He rushes out as Luna comes in smiling. She bends down to grab far back in the fridge and Devin realises her own needs are bubbling up.
Devin: Buongiorno amore mio. Te amo
Luna: Are you trying to seduce me Mrs Villareal
Devin: I know, I know *sighs* you’re married and you love her
Luna: Well I do
Devin: You know… today is your day off
Luna: Maybe but you’re needed at set at 9
Devin: That gives us at least an hour by my calculation. If you wanted to have a little… breakfast in bed
Luna laughs as the toddlers potter around the couple getting their plates of food. Seeing the toddlers are happy she stands and grabs Devin’s hand, pulling her back to their bedroom. They were too exhausted after trying to bolster Max and Miriam to have any fun last night but now they have time together.
Luna: Schatz… promise me we won’t end up like my brother and his wife
Devin: I can promise I’ll love you forever amore mio, how’s that
Luna: Deal
Luckily Devin gets her satisfaction in before set time. Once again actors from all productions are on lot and she has large doubts about the management that schedule the use of the lot. Before she heads in however she takes care to take a selfie for simstagram and update her followers with “ZBB Season 3, let’s go!!!”
First stop, as always, hair/makeup and wardrobe.
Devin: Damn Emily, this jacket is nice
Emily: It may not be post-apocalyptic authentic but who are they to say your character didn’t pillage a mall after the bugs wiped out the humans inside
Devin: Thanks Em
Then she pops back to show Rudolphus the finished look.
Rudolphus: Oh I do good work, look at you! Thank the watcher you didn’t smudge getting into that
Devin: Selfie for the album?
Costume sorted Devin goes to practice her monologue. When she had a small role in the first season the prevalence of monologues worried her a little. It’s not often in TV nowdays that the protagonist talks to no one, normally there’s some kind of animatronic or ball you’re meant to treat like a cgi creature. But Norah knows her stuff and it really sells the medium as sole survivors amongst the fallen.
She’s interrupted by a producer who lets her know Norah wants a word with her before shooting begins s she heads to the main stage to find her old friend.
Norah: Thank goodness you’re here, I think some of the other stars are going to riot
Devin: What do you mean
Norah: You know how we have to film a death scene for everyone so that word can’t get out about who is really getting killed off
Devin: Yeah…
Norah: Some are considering themselves above such “cheap stunts” and are refusing to do it. Apparently they object to being treated as "dispensable"
Devin: *gasps* but… we can’t risk it getting spoiled
Norah: I know, I know, this season is banking on "no one is safe". Could you do your death scene first? I’m thinking if the artists see one of the fan favourites is on board with the plan we can bring them around
Devin assures her friend that she’s happy to go first and will treat it as seriously as if her character were actually dying. Honestly, Norah faced this kind of pushback too much. It’s so hard for women to break into directing. Walking the set to get a feel of it she’s glad to see Connor isn’t here, she’d have been disappointed if he was one of the ones pushing back.
Norah: Villareal death scene, QUIET on set
A hush descends as the regulars and guest stars notice their most famous face has taken the stage. If Norah was using her real name instead of the character name she was making a point. Devin wouldn’t let her make it alone.
ACTION
Devin: Oh… oh I feel… I can’t be pregnant… wait…
She pauses and looks directly into camera.
Devin: It’s the bugs… they’ve woken up inside me…
She freezes in place, contorting her face in a vision of pain. She pretends the bugs are winning and spasms to her knees. She acts as though she is trying to speak, trying to get a last message out, but it’s too late. She buckles sideways and lays motionless.
CUT
Devin: Was that good? Did we get it
Norah: Perfect Mrs Villareal! Now… who’s up next?
Devin shuffles off stage as one by one the actors put on their game faces and play through their own death scenes. The grumbling on set ends, the point has been made. No one is indispensable in TV.
The rest of the shoot goes well. Devin is used to the set now, it’s becoming a familiar playground for her. She does fight scenes and flirting scenes alongside the guest stars, and the shoot wouldn’t be complete without a guitar solo.
Back home Devin hangs outside with Luna and the twins. While Luna is in charge of teaching numbers Devin is in charge of playing pirate! Alfred is first on the ship while Rilian focuses on the flashcards.
Luna: This number is first…
Rilian: One?
Luna: That’s it schnucki
After Alfred finishes playing he gives Devin a big hug before going to ask Luna for his turn at flashcards. Rilian waddles over to the ship and gets busy steering!
Rilian: Mama
Devin: Yes Rilian
Rilian: Did you think about me pool
Devin: *laughs* I did. You better thank your Mummy as well
Rilian: *smiling* you mean…
Devin: One kiddie pool coming up!
Devin grabs the plastic pool from inside and fills it up while an excited Rilian dances. When it’s deep enough Devin helps him in and he goes to sit down.
Rilian: MAMA *splashes*
Devin: Are you happy caro
Rilian: YES *splashes*
Devin and the toddler play around splashing each other while a studious Alfred works on his numbers with Luna. It’s a warm autumn day and Devin has ever seen her son smile so wide.

Villareal: Chapter 6, Part 12
Can we mend the bond between Max and Miriam?
More importantly can I get these indoor water features to work?
For ease of reading if the toddlers are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian. Amore (Italian) Love Arrivederci (Italian) Goodbye Bambino/s (Italian) Male child/children Buongiorno (Italian) Good morning Caro (Italian) Dear Ciao (Italian) Hello/Bye Grazie (Italian) Thank you Piccolo (Italian) Little one Schatz (German) Treasure Zia/Zio (Italian) Aunt/Uncle
Devin: *hums to self*
Alfred: Mama! Bon gee no (Buongiorno), what you doing Mama
Devin: Waiting for my bambinos to wake up
Alfred: I early riser
Devin: I know. Do you want your bath first while we wait for your brother to wake up
Alfred: Yes please Mama
While he doesn’t have the loving water quirk like his brother Alfred still enjoys a good splash about in the tub.
Rilian: MAMA! Mama I want bath please. Why Alfred bath
Devin: You were sleeping caro, give Mama a second then you can climb in
PHONE RINGS
Devin: Ciao, Devin Villareal here. Oh hey De! No it’s just a chill day, feel free to come around. Arrivederci
Alfred: Zia De?
Devin: Zia Deanna is going to come by and see us, how lucky are we. I think we best be in the gym this morning
Rilian: I can walk
Alfred: I race
Devin: Alright, let me get these dishes and I’ll see you there
The toddler take off down the long hallways, bobbling along with Alfred in the lead. Deanna lets herself in and passes the waddlers, giving them a brief squeeze as they complain about being in a race.
Deanna: Wanna spar? We’ve seen ma do it enough
Devin: Three more reps then I’m on it
In the background Rilian and Alfred play with some of the more active toys.
Deanna: Why do you pull faces when we spar
Devin: I have to practice my battle face for ZBB. Met any cute girls yet
Deanna: *sighs* Not yet. Tamika’s idea of going to a singles night is sounding more and more appealing though
Devin: Just don’t say you’re my sister or they’ll want to date me instead
Deanna: *laughs* More like they’ll get my number just to collect an autograph long term
Devin: Like I’d give them an autograph if they’re stringing you along. And…. End scene!
Deanna: *laughs* I guess that’s actor for “end spar”
Devin: Grazi for coming by. Give my love to ma and pa... and Emisia or she’ll feel left out
Following early lunch and naps the twins have convinced Devin they should watch Melodies of the City again. With each rewatch they get closer to remembering the words to the songs, not that not knowing ever stops their sing along.
Rilian: *blows kiss* Mama a screen star
Devin: *laughs* Grazie piccolo
Rilian: Next time we watch, hope Mama has red dress
Alfred: Me to!
Devin: Bambino’s, that’s not quite how it works. Mama had a yellow dress when she was filming so every time we watch Mama will have a yellow dress
Rilian: *sadly* Why?
Alfred: *sadly* Does Mama not like red?
Before Devin can figure out how to respond she’s saved by the bell, Luna has arrived home.
Alfred: Mummy! I love Mummy! Hug?
Luna: Oh course. Mummy missed you. And Mummy missed you
Rilian: *laughs* Snuggles with Mummy
Luna: Did we have a good day
Alfred: Yes. Zia De came and we play
Rilian: After nap we watch Mama sing on screen
The boys are soon distracted by some kids show and Luna takes the opportunity to pull Devin into her arms.
Luna: *kisses* I missed you today to
Devin: *giggles* Same here
Luna: So I’ve had an idea. Since we didn’t see Miriam at brunch I’ve invited her and Max for dinner
Devin: That’s a great idea! Although I don’t know that our house screams romantic atmosphere
Luna: I thought we could try Del Sol eatery again, maybe they just need a nice romantic dinner to get back on track
Devin: You have such a good heart amore mio
Luna: So do you schatz. Do you think Joey will be able to watch the twins on short notice
Devin: I think so, he doesn’t normally go... fishing on weekdays
Rilian: Zio Joey fish?
Alfred: He never show us fish
Rilian: We ask Zio Joey to see fish
Alfred: YES
Max: This is a swanky place, wonder if I could nick that guys wallet
Luna: Max, behave! This is meant to be a nice relaxing dinner for you and Miriam
Max: If you say so. Don’t be surprised that she looks different though. Rocked back in with a new do and wardrobe
Luna: Different? Wait-back?
Max: I don’t know, she said something about wanting to look edgy, I wasn’t really listening
Luna: *sighs* Max, step number one is listen when your wife is talking
Max: I thought step number one was… you know… in bed
Luna: Apologising in clothes can be more important than apologising in bed you know
Bonnie: *in monotone* Welcome to Del Sol Eatery, the best little gem in the valley
Devin: Yes hi, me again. Reservation for four under Villareal
Bonnie: *monotone continues* We offer our customers a range of dining experiences-
Devin: Not to be rude but we have heard your speech, know where the exits are and will continue to tip generously. Can you pretty please skip to the part where you show us our table?
Bonnie: *scoffs*
Devin worries she’s overstepped for a minute. It’s not as if she told her to get charisma lessons though, just to show them to a table. After an extra-long sigh Bonnie points to a table and Devin goes to grab it before the speech can start again.
Devin: Wow… that’s a nice dress
Miriam: Thanks! I’m trying to go more gothic to bind with Max more
Devin: That’s… cute, but remember even if you’re in a relationship you still have to be yourself
Miriam: I just don’t think pastels were the right way to gel with him, too bright
Devin: How are you and Max? We missed you at brunch
Miriam: Yes I- I’m back for now at least. Oh here they come. Honey pie, we’re over here!
Max: Yes sugar, my eyes do work
Luna: I grabbed a placemat!
Luna: I just realised you’ve never told me how you two met
Max: Oh look, a waiter, let’s order
The group peruses the menu and eventually settles on something to order. Again the conversation shifts back to romance.
Devin: Oh me and Lu met in high school
Max: Not this story again
Luna: Then tell us your story to pass the time. How did you meet? Who said I love you first
Max: Luna you know I’m not a sap
Luna: It’s not about being a sap, it’s about being able to say nice things about your partner
Max: Fine. Miriam, you have nice boobs
Miriam: And you have a nice butt
Max: There, compliments done
Devin: Oh come on, I’m sure there’s more you like about each other
Max: Yeah Miriam, I’m sure there was a reason you came back that wasn’t another fake pregnancy or more money
Luna: *fake laughter* Such a unique sense of humour my brother has
Miriam: Why yes Max. I came back because I figured you needed someone to sleep with you
Devin: *quickly* What do you think about these pools? Didn’t the watcher fix things up in here? And I see no one in swimwear
Max: Swimwear?
Luna: Let us tell you all about it
Eventually the food arrives and the talk can move to a more neutral territory. The tension never completely disappears but Max and Miriam stop taking bites out of each other and tuck into the food. Luna is worried about her brother and wonders if he’s keeping his hurt hidden or if he really thinks so little of Miriam now. When she and Devin meet each other’s eyes over the table she can feel her wife’s love without any words. She wants that for Max, even if he can be prickly as a hedgehog.
Miriam: Thank you for treating us Luna, it was good to get out
Luna: You’re welcome but this one will technically be from Devin’s paycheck
Fan: OMG Devin Villareal! Can I have an autograph
Devin: I’m sorry, I’m actually eating with my family right now. But if you want to shoot a quick video…
Luna: Uh oh
Devin: That’s right, serenade time!
Devin bursts into song and Luna beams proudly. She used to get flustered when Devin would break into song in front of strangers but as her wife has gotten more famous she’s found it reassuring. Max may be having trouble, but her marriage gives her nothing but joy.

Villareal: Chapter 6, Part 11
The library of Windenburg won't know what hit it!
For ease of reading if the toddlers are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian. Amore (Italian) Love Bambino/s (Italian) Male child/children Ciao (Italian) Hello/Bye Grazie (Italian) Thank you Schatz (German) Treasure Tante/Onkel (German) Aunt/Uncle
In the library in Windenburg Max and Hugo Villareal are keeping toddlers Alfred and Rilian busy. Max is working on needs flashcards with Rilian while Hugo has decided to play with Alfred for a bit.
In a side room Luna has found the archive machine and begins to pull together some research for her next paper. She hasn’t used one in a while so she has to ask the librarian about the more fiddly tasks that she has forgotten how to do. Lucky for us the librarian is friendly and happy to help.
Max: And what is this one
Rilian: For hungry!
Max: Good job! We can cook lots of nice things in pans to fill up our hunger
Alfred: I birdie, flap flap
Hugo: Uh oh, storm is coming
Alfred laughs and giggles as Hugo spins him around. When he gets back on solid ground though he wants some flashcard time to! If his brother can learn then so will he.
Following streaming her jog around the rainy heart of Windenburg Devin returns to the library to find some fans have gathered.
Fan: OMG it’s you! In person!
Devin: Ciao! Nice to see you despite this rain
Fan: I couldn’t miss this chance. Can I… please may I have your autograph
Devin: Of course. I keep some headshots on me in case of autograph emergencies. Now who shall I make it out to?
After signing some autographs, taking some selfies and posing for the paparazzi Devin breaks out her guitar to give an impromptu performance for those that braved the weather.
Inside Rilian has finished with flashcards and has gotten Onkel Max to play with him. Unfortunately as great as Max and Hugo are they do manage to get confused about which twin they’re responsible for. Seizing his chance Alfred heads to the dollhouse.
Alfred: Birdie SMASH
He lets loose on the dollhouse, trashing what he can. A nearby child is horrified at the display and bursts into tears. Luna comes in just as he’s finished and grinning to himself.
Luna: ALFRED! I thought you two were going to watch him
Luna’s brothers mutter their apologies while Luna scoops up Alfred and apologises to the librarian. Devin comes in and although she doesn’t have her tools is happy to pay for the cost of repair. The Del Sol Villareal’s head home.
When they get back the toddlers need naps and Luna heads to host her last online office hours for the day.
Luna: Class, I am here to help. But some of these submitted questions are answered in the final chapters of the books. I’m not here to read the books for you. Reframe your question after you’ve finished the text and we can discuss
Next student group
Luna: You want me to define that word during office hours? Let me help you. Open a tab and go to dictionary.com, everyone make note of that
Next student group
Luna: You all sound on track for your essays, I’m looking forward to reading them. Remember, include all references! We quote or we paraphrase, we do not plagiarise
Norah: I know it’s a bit more wordy than normal
Devin: I can do science jargon, can’t be more tongue twisty than The Jabberwocky
Norah: You’ve recited that?
Devin: It was a test in my first university course, showing pronunciation and ability to memorise. I passed with flying colours
Norah: Nice. See you on set, oh we’re giving your character a new look as well
Devin waves her friend goodbye and heads to the kitchen where Joey is baking something else.
Devin: Still fighting the burnout?
Joey: Trying. Work was intense today but I scored a promotion!
Devin: Look at you go! I’m so proud of you bro
Joey: The feeling is mutual, I hope you know that
Devin: Grazie
Joey pulls the fish pie from the oven and Devin can’t stop herself laughing.
Devin: *through laughter* Oh if you ever wanted proof for your “we’re in a simulation” argument that’s got to be it! Like why would you choose to make pie like that? Look at the tails!
Joey: I take it you won’t be eating any
Devin: Me and my bambinos will be eating excellent meatballs, my palate is refined after all, but... grazie for trying?
When the toddlers are up they also laugh at the fish tails sticking out of the pastry. Joey responds by pulling some of his best faces making the boys laugh even harder. When they’re finished Joey helps Devin get them to bed as Luna’s online office hours seem to have run overtime.
Devin goes to tidy up dinner while Joey starts on some knitting.
Devin: Grazie for the help, Luna does get so generous with her students
Joey: You don’t mind?
Devin: She has work that makes her feel fulfilled. I get the same feeling from my filming, and watcher knows that can take just as long. End of the day I know regardless she and I will always put our family first. A night a week of missed bedtimes at this age won’t harm the twins relationship with either of us. Now scooch over, let the knitting pro show you how it’s done
Devin continues her own project, giving Joey advice as he navigates his latest plant holder. He finishes and declares he’s inviting Alexander over for a bake off catch up. Devin laughs and finishes her own work. Spotting Luna in the garden spraying some errant bugs she steps outside.
Devin: Ciao amore mio
Luna: Oh schatz, I’m sorry I missed dinner. One of my bilingual kids was having a crisis about syntax and I-
Devin silences her with a kiss and lifts her up gently spinning her around.
Devin: Have I told you I love how you call your students your kids
Luna: *laughs* You know what I mean
Devin: I do. You care about them and their futures, knowing they have someone like that in their corner is worth a few missed dinners
She sets Luna back on the ground gently.
Luna: Can we go kiss our bambinos goodnight? I know they'll be asleep and won't know but still
Devin: Of course we can. Then you and I have a date between our sheets. Workaholics deserve treats
Luna: They look so sweet like this. Our babies
Devin: Yep. You’d never know they are the same ones that busted public property and made grown kids cry
Luna: *laughs* Thank goodness you had some simoleons on hand, and the paparazzi had already left. Now I believe you promised me a bedroom treat
Devin: *coyly* Did I? Would I do that?
Luna: Do you want me to launch a tickle attack because I will
Devin: Come on then amore, to bed we go

Villareal: Chapter 6, Part 10
Devin in her starring role, Mama.
For ease of reading if the toddlers are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian. Buongiorno (Italian) Good morning Caro (Italian) Dear Schnucki (German) Sweetie but doesn’t have an exact translation Tante/Onkel (German) Aunt/Uncle
What do you know, potty time with two over tired toddlers does not go smoothly. The twins are more distracted than normal and poor Alfred looks downright horrified at what is going on. It’s a miracle that neither winds up having an accident I swear.
Despite their tiredness the twins insist on a bedtime story so Luna and Devin put on their best pirate accents to reread one of the boys favourite tales. At last Alfred and Rilian fall asleep and peace descends over the house again.
Luna and Devin go the library and Luna begins on grading papers while Devin continues to polish her guitar and singing skills. When Luna is finished she sweeps Devin up and carries her to bed.
Between filming the movie and her recurring TV role Devin has time to live an almost normal life. She’s sorting out cleaning up the potties when her sons wake up.
Alfred: *yawns* Bon gee no (Buongiorno) Mama
Devin: Buongiorno Alfred. Did you have some good dreams?
Alfred: *nodding* Ice cream
Rilian: *untucking himself* Bon gee no (Buongiorno) Mama
Devin helps her sons get dressed and together they move to the kitchen.
Joey: This dazed moodlet is no joke, it’s messing with my eyes! But I trust the watcher won’t let me get burnout, she loves me I know it
Luna: Still not convinced a watcher exists
At that point Devin and the twins make it to the kitchen and Luna gets up to hug them both. Helping them into their high chairs she also gives Devin a kiss.
Luna: Now darlings Mummy will be working from home today so we might not see much of each other. But Mama is going to stay with you and later we’re going to go to Windenburg and you’ll get to see your Onkel Max and Onkel Hugo
Luna does a quick harvest of the garden then it’s straight into online tutoring. Joey finishes producing another batch of bagels while Devin does her best to cheer up a moody Alfred who is annoyed they’re not allowed to wander into Luna’s online lectures.
Devin: Fair dues Joey, these bagels are pretty good
Joey: Thanks! I need to get Alexander over to catch up on Bake Off soon
Rilian: Mama, why apple juice not spill
Devin: Let’s not tempt fate by putting it over our eyes caro
After everyone is finished Joey gets the boys out while Devin takes care of the dishes. The boys are upset Joey has to go to work rather than play but he gives them snuggles as payment.
Alfred goes to bob to the music while Rilian is the first who must go through some flash cards.
Devin: What is this caro
Rilian: Bed!
Devin: Very good. And what do we use bed for
Rilian: Story time!
Devin: Yes but what else
Rilian: Night night?
Devin: Can you say sleep?
Rilian: NIGHT NIGHT
Devin: *sighs* Let’s try the next one
Devin: We have food when we are…. Rilian stop trying to see behind the card
Rilian: But I want know
Devin: You already know, and I know you can say this one. It starts with a huh sound
Alfred uses his Mama being distracted to waddle past innocently.
Rilian: Oh! I – Hungry! Have food when HUNGRY
Devin: Great job bambino, you’re doing good
In the hall Alfred again meets his nemesis. Say goodbye dollhouse!
Devin hears crashing and races out into the hall to find a sobbing toddler.
Alfred: *crying* Mama, dollhouse broke
Devin: The dollhouse just broke did it?
Alfred: *crying* it all smash
Devin: Mama can fix it. Do you know how it got broken
Alfred: *sniffles*
Devin: *sighs* Alfred. How did the dollhouse get broken
Alfred: *sniffling* A bird… smash it
Devin: A bird broke into our home to smash the dollhouse? Did this bird happen to have a blue top and green pants?
Alfred: *sadly* Yes
Devin: Is the bird sorry
Alfred: *sniffing* yes
Devin: It’s okay caro, Mama will fix it. Try to be careful next time, Mama won’t be able to fix everything that can break
Grabbing some tools Devin sets about trying to fix the dollhouse. While she’s doing this Alfred happily shows her the rock he cooked on the toddler stove for Rilian to sell. When she’s finished Devin gives Alfred a big hug and tries to remind him not to smash things.
Devin kisses Alfred then pulls a funny face as he’s still sad about being told off. Settling down to do flashcards with him the pair are passed by Rilian.
Devin: Rilian caro, where are you going
Rilian: Play tablet
Devin: Why don’t you play here where Mama can see you
Alfred: It bed! Bed for… night night
Devin: Can you say sleep? Hmm? Bed is for sleep
Alfred: Bed is for sleepy sleep
With her morning classes sorted Luna joins her family for some potty practice before they go in search of an archive machine. The twins are not in tandem today. Alfred manages to potty without incident but Rilian has a spill which sends him into a crying fit. Luna takes him out and they have a proper snuggle while Devin cleans up the mess.
Rilian: I love you mummy
Luna: I love you to schnucki

Villareal: Chapter 6, Part 9
Camera time!!!
Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian. Schnucki (German) Sweetie but doesn’t have an exact translation
Devin: Here we are! Pirates of the Aegean 1
Rudolphus: Have they still not settled on a title
Devin: If they have it wasn’t on my latest script
Rudolphus: Come on, best get to make up, it’s going to be a big one
Devin: What do you mean
Rudolphus: *chuckles* I’m not going to ruin the surprise
Devin heads in, drafting up a quick simstagram post using film emojis followed by a pirate flag. Her followers know she’s doing a film that involves pirates but they’ve been able to keep the plot under wraps. Hopefully people can be surprised in the theatre.
Rudolphus: Now make sure you hold still
Devin: When do I not hold still
Rudolphus: Anytime your phone buzzes
Devin: I promise, I’ll be a statue
Rudolphus: Good because these scars are finicky
Devin goes to respond but Rudolphus shushes her. There’s nothing to do but sit still and let him work his magic. When he finishes he steps back and smiles
Rudolphus: Perfect if I do say so myself. Now where did they put that wig
Devin looks in the mirror as he moves away and is amazed at how he’s blended the scars into the rest of her make up, making her look like she has indeed been in swordfights before. When Rudolphus is finished she thanks him and heads to wardrobe.
Emily: Woah, were you attacked by a dire chinchilla
Devin: Nope, looks convincing right
Emily: Maybe but they wouldn’t be able to sell it without my costume. Come, you know the drill
Devin stands on the podium and hold still while Emily rechecks all her measurements and confirms the costume will still fit. Then it’s off with the sunglasses and on with the dress
Devin: I like this, the corset is cute
Emily: It’s a waspie
Devin: Oh okay, waspie. Selfie for luck?
Emily: You are incorrigible
Heading out Devin spots a familiar face milling amongst the actors, her friend and ZBB director Norah.
Devin: Norah! What ae you doing here? I thought you’d be busy penning next season
Norah: Devin darling! I’m already finished, the scripts are at the printers, you should get yours tomorrow. For now, focus on this. Levi may be directing but I’m going to be in the editing suite
Devin: So keep up standards, got it
As Norah hustles off to check in with some producers Devin and Tadelech take a final chance to run their lines. Accents check, we’re good to go!
Looking around Devin spots Levi in his normal spot, the directors chair.
Devin: Do we actually have a title
Levi: Still workshopping. I’m thinking Pirates of the Aegean: Treasures of Aarbyville. Let them know right from the off we have plans for sequels
Devin: I can’t lie, a regular movie would be great
Levi: For all of us. Go up there and give it your best
Devin: Sir yes sir!
Levi: Remember, you’re the captain!
Finding her way on to the stage Devin wonders whose idea it was to shoot in fake rain. Why couldn’t it just be added in post? Nevermind, no time to worry, get in character. Captain Jane Swallow, in charge of the Dire Chinchilla, pirate extraordinaire.
Devin finishes her vocal warm ups just as Tadelech gets in position. Time to rock and roll!
ACTION
Devin: Biggs, me loyal first mate, where’s the rum
Tadelech: No rum captain
Devin: Why is the rum gone? Nevermind, we don’t need it
Tadelech: Captain?
Devin: Come, let us toast to new adventures
Tadelech: With what captain?
Devin: We have goat’s milk here do we not? To the crew of the Dire Chinchilla
Tadelech: To the-
Devin: Wait, cannon fire!
CUT
Devin takes another quick selfie, she is loving this hat!
Devin: She sells seashells by the seashore
Tadelech: Splish, splash, splosh went the dog in the wash
ACTION
Devin: Biggs! Why are you not at your post
Tadelech: The place for a first mate is by her captain’s side
Devin: I have to tell you Biggs, there’s no guarantee we will survive this
Tadelech: I have yet to see Captain Jane Swallow fail
Devin: This is not the time to flirt
Tadelech: But if I don’t say it now-
Devin: We will get through this, I’ll make sure
Tadelech: There’s the captain I love
Devin dips Tadelech into a kiss and congratulates herself on not dropping the taller woman.
CUT
Devin: Nailed it
Tadelech: I hope so. This rain is not doing my hair any favours
Devin makes her way to the wheel and checks how easily it turns to get an idea of how to make it look realistic.
ACTION
Devin throws herself into the scene. It’s always strange doing a scene without a partner, just you alone to sell it. Luckily behind the camera Levi is yelling instructions of where to look and how to look. Before long Devin feels like her movements have become more natural and she has fun with it visualising holding the ship steady in turbulent waters.
CUT
Devin: Mina, you look…
Mina: How did they wear these wigs honestly
ACTION
Devin: I know this is not the trip you booked, but you are not who you pretended to be
Mina: I – of course I am! I… I forgot my line
The pair burst into giggles.
Levi: CUT! Focus actors, focus!
Mina: *through laughter* sorry Levi
Levi: *sighs* let’s do the fight scene, maybe that will clear up the giggles
Devin: *giggling* Yep, yep. Deep breath, focus
ACTION
Mina and Devin perform the perfectly chorepgraphed fight without any hiccups or giggles. Filming continues but when Levi shouts the final CUT the cast and crew feel like they’re given a star performance.
Devin returns home with her surprise, costumes! She convinced Emily to let her have some original test outfits that were ultimately abandoned, and she picked up some stuff for the toddlers to. While the grown ups get to be pirates Alfred is a crocodile and Rilian is a sea monster. The lounge is full of laughter and chaos as the pirates try to move from couch to couch, or safe ship to safe ship, without getting eaten by the water creatures. In the end the pirates launch a tickle attack on the toddlers and a tie is declared. As they set up for a photo Luna whispers a thank you to her wife, Devin always seems to have a plan to life her spirits. Next step, dinner.
Devin: We have classic Italian Meatballs for your eating pleasure tonight
Alfred: YAY
Luna: Rilian, you’re going to eat them aren’t you
Rilian sticks his tongue out and Joey laughs.
Devin: Come on caro, I made them extra excellent. Try a bite
Rilian: Hmm, Mama help me eat?
Devin: You can pick up your food but how about I sit beside and help cut
Rilian nods and the family sit down. Things are quiet for a while as they all eat but before long the grown ups are catching up on each others days and the toddlers are saying nonsense to each other.
Joey: And that’s when I said- Rilian I saw that
All eyes turn to the youngest toddler who is shifting nervously in his seat. He doesn’t seem keen to talk. Luna and Devin look around for what happened.
Joey: Don’t you want to say what happened
Rilian shakes his head but it’s too late, Luna has spotted the problem.
Luna: Schnucki, did you push some of your dinner on the floor
Rilian: NO
Devin: It got on the floor all by itself
Rilian: *blubbering* Not me
Luna: Rilian, your Mama worked hard to make dinner. We don’t just toss excellent food on the floor
Rilian continues to pout but doesn’t offer any explanation.
Devin: Bedtime I think
The women get the toddlers out of their seats but their moods don’t improve on the ground.
Luna: Did you two have naps today
Alfred: No Mummy, daycare was busy
The grown ups sigh collectively.
Devin: So we’ve been awake for 14 hours without naps, brilliant
Rilian: Mama help me potty?
Devin: I guess I shouldn’t push for please in these conditions
Luna: *scooping up Alfred* nope, they won’t take it in
Devin: Come bambinos, potty then bed

Villareal: Chapter 6, Part 8
Joey gets a call from a friend in need and Devin prepares for set.
CW: Moderate sim spice. Content Warning Guide
Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian. Bambino/s (Italian) Male child/children Caro (Italian) Dear Grazie (Italian) Thank you Piccolo (Italian) Little one Zia/Zio (Italian) Aunt/Uncle
Joey is catching another nap when he’s woken by his buzzing phone.
Joey: Hmm, yeah bro
Tuesday: Oh my gosh, have I reached Joey York? The JOEY YORK
Joey: *sleepily* Tuesday?
Tuesday: Yes the best woohoo buddy around. You down to push it?
Joey: Watcher needs me to stay on lot tonight but if you can come over… and then come over and over
Tuesday: Shut up dork I’ll be there, I need to unwind
Joey gets up and after checking the twins are certainly asleep he goes to let Tuesday in. He knows if Devin or Luna hear weird noises they won’t investigate and just assume he’s doing something, but he doesn’t need toddlers interrupting anything. The pair make their way into the kitchen and Tuesday continues her performance of fawning all over him.
Joey: Not that I don’t love some attention for one as hot as yourself but is there a reason for this performance?
Tuesday: *jokingly* I’m in the presence of greatness
Joey: What?
Tuesday: *sighs* Dude have you been asleep all afternoon? Memorandum is all over simstagram
Joey: You’re kidding!
Tuesday: Nope hot stuff. The gamers are flocking to it like wildfire. Congrats man
Joey pulls her into a bro hug while she laughs.
Tuesday: I’m friends with woohoo benefits with a celebrity!
Joey: 1 star maybe
Tuesday: Come on genius, you won’t stay 1 star forever. You work hard and play hard, you’ll get rewarded. You think the watcher exists right? If they do they've got plans for you
Joey: Holy watcher, I am trending! Well Memorandum is
Tuesday: But you’re the cute face behind it. So what do you want to do to me to celebrate
Joey: Tuesday… you normally come to me with a plan in mind, not that I don’t like being creative but I don’t like to over step
Tuesday smirks and pulls him in for a kiss. Her hands snake under his shirt and caress his chest while she whispers her plan in his ear.
Joey: You serious? I thought you didn’t want to try it
Tuesday: One of my flings wants to and I would rather know what to expect. He is smaller than you so he shouldn’t hurt as much but the point of our arrangement is practice. So… want to help me?
Joey: You are just giving me all your woohoo debuts now aren’t you
Tuesday smirks and pulls him in for another deep kiss. While he’s distracted she unloops his belt, works his pants down and checks he’s ready
Tuesday: *whispering* Stop being a smart ass. Kneel down and use your mouth for better things
Joey: Ma'am yes ma'am
Joey did and when Tuesday was ready he stood back up, whispering to her that this will be good. Tuesday nods and Joey starts. He enjoys woohoo with Tuesday, they’ve been woohoo buddies since he finished high school. She’s got a great body, a creative mind and she’s normally down to get it on whenever. Beyond that she’s aromantic just like him so he never has to worry she’s going to catch feelings. When they’re finished she kisses him on the cheek and takes off while he heads straight to the shower. He knows the watcher hasn’t put any WTD’s in game but he always likes to keep clean. Satisfied he dries off and climbs in bed to sleep, and dream of how many women his new celebrity status could give him access to.
A new day dawns and Devin has time to give the twins baths before she’s needed on set. First up is Alfred.
Alfred: Where’s Mummy
Devin: Mummy is in the pool trying to not be afraid of water any more
Rilian: I want be in water
Devin: You are next caro, but you need to have potty practice
Alfred: I went potty in my diaper *giggles*
Devin: Oh I know
Alfred: *quacks* Duckie happy *splashes*
Devin: Careful, you’ll get Mama’s sunglasses wet
Devin lifts Alfred up and dries him off. Getting him in his day clothes she sends him off while an impatient Rilian pulls at her leg.
Rilian: Mama, Mama, me! Me now
Devin: What should we say? You remember caro
Rilian: PLEASE
Devin: Your wish is my command, one bath coming up
In the kitchen Luna walks in from her swim to see a nervous Joey looking around.
Luna: You alright?
Joey: I’ve had such a busy weekend, I’m sure I’ve forgotten something for work
Luna: I doubt it, you worry to much. Look at me, I thought I was going to drown in our pool but after some solid laps I can now confidently say I was overreacting. Besides, your coworkers will probably be to busy asking about your game to do real work
Joey: Maybe. Hey, apparently it’s exploding over simstagram
Alfred: What splode (explode)
Luna: Morning schnucki. Zio Joey was just saying people like his game
Alfred: Game? Can we play game? Please?
Joey: I suppose since you used your manners… do you want to be… a bird?
Alfred jumps up and down excitedly. Luna laughs as Joey begins lifting him up and down and spinning the toddler around. When he’s got Alfred on his back he pauses.
Joey: Remember, to fly you have to flap. Can you flap
Alfred: *flaps arms* Caw caw! Caw caw!
Luna: Very good bird Alfred
Devin: Remember caro, we try keep the water in the bath
Rilian: Mama, you play pirate today
Devin: Yes I will
Rilian: Pirate get to be in water?
Devin: Not for this film, maybe if we get another one. Would you like to be a pirate
Rilian: Not if no water. I be… mon star! (monster)
Devin: A sea monster? Very scary. Come on, bath is over, we need to do breakfast
Rilian sighs sadly and refuses to leave the bath until all the water has drained out. When he’s dry he lets Devin carry him to the kitchen and gets excited seeing Joey and Alfred playing.
Rilian: Mama I want to play with Zio Joey
Devin: Eat your breakfast, your whole breakfast, then we’ll see
Rilian: Yes Mama
Devin: Have you seen where Lu went
Joey: I think she said she was going to check if that genealogy place has the sample yet
Rilian: Mama can I has milk please
Alfred: Me to please
Devin: Sure, oh wow you two just demolished your breakfasts. You must be growing! Joey will you have some time after work free before dinner
Joey: Probably, why
Devin: No reason, now turn around and left me check the size tag on your jacket
Rilian: Mama I done! Can I play with Zio Joey now please
Devin: Zio Joey will get you out, Mama's just going to wish Mummy luck for her lecture today
Joey gets the twins out of the high chairs Joey entertains them while Devin kisses Luna then has the chance to have breakfast. While Joey spins Rilian around Alfred bobs like a bird to the music and makes quacking noises.
Devin: Rilian piccolo, let Zio Joey get to work
Rilian pulls a face as Joey lowers him carefully to the floor.
Joey: See you all later. Good luck on set sis, knock em dead
Devin: Grazie
Devin: Where are you going
Rilian: Dollhouse Mama
Devin: Be careful playing with it bambinos
Alfred: Yes Mama
Devin: And if you break it come tell me!
While the boys enjoy playing together Devin sets about her chores for the day. She tries to set up a regular maid and gardening service but apparently there’s a small waitlist. A least the daycare is helpful, assuring her they will look after her toddlers while she’s on set.
Final task before she leaves, meal prep. She enjoys making meatballs, remembering when she was young and her ma would teach her how to ball them up. And the many discussions with her pa about getting the balance of the sauce right. She can cook them almost on autopilot now, allowing her a final chance to run lines in her head.

Villareal: Chapter 6, Part 7
What to do after brunch?
For ease of reading if the toddlers are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian. Caro (Italian) Dear Grazie (Italian) Thank you Piccolo (Italian) Little one Schnucki (German) Sweetie but doesn’t have an exact translation
With brunch winding up Rilian has had enough pretending to eat and leaves his plate on the table.
Calista: What’s wrong caro?
Rilian: I not want pancake
Devin: I thought you liked pancakes
Rilian: *tearfully* Yuck
Alfred: I like?
Rilian: Mama I sad
Devin: Well we can’t have that, come hug it out piccolo
Rilian: Mama snuggle?
Devin: Just try and stop me
Luna: Thanks for coming everyone, we’ll see you all next Sunday
The guests say goodbye and stream out while Devin hugs Rilian tight. He doesn’t like to be held but it seems that when he’s sad he finds hugs comforting. Devin puts him back down and they both say goodbye to her parents.
Rilian: Mama?
Devin: Yes caro
Rilian: Can I has snack please
Devin: *sighs* Since you didn’t finish breakfast I’d say you need it. Lu, I’ll do the dishes once he’s sorted
Luna: Thanks, I’ve got to do the vacuuming and Joey’s disappeared
Devin: Probably working on his game. Rilian what snack would you like
Rilian: Crackers please
Devin: *already picturing the sugar rage* Are you sure
Rilian: Yes thanks Mama
Devin: Okay, but you’ll have to run off the energy afterwards
Devin: *loudly* I think I’ll invite my co-stars over
Luna: *finishes vacuuming* Sounds good! I have some work to do before classes tomorrow, and I haven’t finished the garden yet
Devin: You going to try follow up with the genealogy site
Luna: Best do it while I have time. Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on the twins
Rilian: Mama I done! Can I go play please
Devin turns and lets Rilian out. He races outside to where Alfred is already playing.
Alfred: *grunts* Bounce, bounce, up…
He shoots for the toddler basketball hoop but the ball bounces off the rim, bouncing into his stomach and knocking him over.
Alfred: OWWW
Luna: Alfred? Schnucki? What happened
Alfred: Mummy ball hit me
Luna: Oh dear
Alfred: It put me on grass
Luna: Can you stand up all right?
Alfred: I try mummy, I try
Luna: Slow and steady
Alfred: I want hoop Mummy
Luna: Well have you tried putting it into the hoop without throwing it
Alfred: I can?
Luna: You’re practicing schnucki, you can play how you want
Alfred: *smiling* Look Mummy I get hoop
Luna: Good job!
Alfred: *giggling* I star like Mama
After a few more throws and placing through the net Alfred toddles over near Rilian and the twins play together while Luna finishes in the garden.
Meanwhile inside Devin is busy chatting with her co-stars.
Natalia: I was admiring your accolade
Devin: Yeah, it’s nice but my wedding photos are my favourite thing in this hall
Natalia: Oh you are a gem. Let’s go and find the others
In the kitchen Connor and Tadelech have been relaxing but with the arrival of the other women work can begin. They pair up and Devin and Tadelech go over some scenes to practice their accents for tomorrow’s shoot.
When the crew are prepared Devin sees them off and goes outside to find Luna.
Devin: Did you have time to check the website
Luna: They don’t have Max’s sample yet
Devin: Post can be slow, they’ll get it
Luna: They already have mine and Hugo but no matches, not now and probably not ever
Devin: Lu… people are joining those sites all the time
Luna: I’m glad you can be cheerful schatz but you might have to hold on to the hope for both of us for a while
Joey feels like he might he coming down with something, or at least a wicked headache. He does his best to ignore it and successfully finishes his first videogame entitled, Memorandum. To reward himself he downs some orange juice and takes a power nap. In the office Luna is writing her latest scholarly paper while the twins play with blocks and Devin gets her jog in.
Rilian: I make… queer (square)
Alfred: I make queer to!
Luna: Square darlings. Final reference and… done! We should get to the dining room, Mama should be back soon
Indeed Devin arrives home just in time to help move the twins.
Alfred: Mama I make… sca- square
Devin: That’s wonderful
Rilian: I did to!
Devin: You both are learning so much
Rilian: Mummy helped
Alfred: Mummy said square
When the family get to the kitchen Rilian is hit with a wave of sadness.
Rilian: I not like blocks
Devin: Piccolo we’re not paying with them anymore
Rilian: *sniffles* They make me sad
Luna: Hold on Rilian, do you want to see something…. STRANGE
Luna pulls the silliest face she can and waves her hands about madly causing Rilian to burst into laughter.
Devin: Watch out, Mummy is possessed
Alfred: *laughs* You funny Mummy
Rilian: Again! Again!
Luna: Food first
Alfred: Sandwich!
The family are eating away when Joey wakes up and drags himself to the kitchen. Not feeling like a proper meal he grabs a leftover bagel and sits down.
Joey: I need to sleep for like a week but it’s out!
Rilian: What out?
Joey: My video game
Devin: Congratulations! Oh you have to tell ma and pa, they’ll be over the moon
Joey: I’m pretty happy about it to
Rilian: Mama I not happy, food ick *pulls face*
Devin: *sighs* Well grazie for finishing even though you didn’t like it
Devin scoops Rilian up and cuddles him close while Luna takes Alfred to bed. Despite Rilian’s protests Devin carries him to the nursery to.
Luna: The land was dangerous
Rilian: *sadly* Mummy read without me?
Alfred: No Ri, Mummy read old bit
Luna: We’re rereading so you don’t miss anything. Once you’re in bed we’ll read some new story
Rilian happily changes into his night clothes and clambers into bed while Luna and Devin take turns reading pages until the boys fall asleep. When they are snoring soundly Devin tucks them both in and Luna kisses them goodnight.
