If we talkin about ugly sims we got talk about the sims 3 twinbrook cause what was going on there 😭 the bayless family still haunts me and tay bayless looks British ngl
I never got into Sims 3, so I don't know any of the townies/worlds that don't relate to premades from the earlier games. Let me look them up! Gimme one sec...
Tumblr media
... Oh 😬. Oh my. Well that's ummm a choice! But let me just read their wiki description real qui-
Tumblr media
OH?! What the fuck?!
The absolute crime of excessive camo... the incestual implications...I am... lmfao I am just... WOW! There really are just no words. I feel like their description is a wild ride from beginning to end.
I added a Graphic with up-close pics of the family below for those who, much like myself, might have been blissfully unaware of this monstrosity of a family's existence before this cursed day.
Tumblr media
Skeet and Gwayne... that's ummmm another choice! I have never heard the name Gwayne in my life and have no idea where they pulled that from! You're right about Tay though, he does look British! He's very out of place with his little sweater vest: a little sickly Victorian boy in the midst of what looks to be a trailer park family.
But listen... I have to admit that I hate the way all the sims in TS3 look, so I'm not super impartial. The animation just weirded me out for some unknown reason, but I've thought of giving it another chance in recent years as it is so beloved on here. My younger sister, however, loves The Sims 3 - I need to ask her how she felt about this family as they are indeed especially rough, you're right!!!
All that being said... I'm not gonna lie I'd play this family and have a grand old time. This kind of wackity-tackity cuckoo banana shit is right up my alley. Now they're on my townie makeover list! 😂

Еще пара переделанных персонажей из Твинбрука Гвейн Бэйлесс и Скит Бэйлесс. По моему они получились довольно милыми:) ____________________________________________________________ A couple more recast characters from Twinbrook are Gwayne Bayless and Skeet Bayless. I think they turned out pretty cute :)

OF COURSE! Of course when Skeet and the kids are gone scrapping, and Gwaynes phone is missing, of course THAT’S when she goes into labor! She was on her own!
Wait, What?? There’s another one?! But the ultrasound showed TWINS!
Mack Bayless is an absent-minded klutz.
Coy Bayless is a brave couch potato.
Baz Bayless is a disciplined genius.

Dear David...
If you’ve kept up with The Krazy Crazy Life of Kassiopeia Fullbright, you’ll know about the appearance of the Bayless family from Twinbrook. If not, then, ***minor spoiler alert!***
Davis Lamar is related to them... a.k.a. David Bayless. Arc 34, Remembering, briefly features the Bayless family. I decided to share some stills from my gameplay for fun. 
Tumblr media
Avery Bayless (14)  is rather angry that the soda machine ate her simoleons. She really hoped for a refreshing drink after school.
Dear David, I really hate this blasted machine! I wish you were here to reach up with your long arms and grab the cola. 
Tumblr media
Frustrated, Avery gives up and comes home to play ball with her brother, Taye on their Bayuck swamp farm.
The days and nights kinda blend together, but every night, Taye and I play ball. It’s kinda nice. I know he wouldn’t admit it but he’s grown to be handsome while you’ve been gone... er... except for those ears! 
Tumblr media
Taye Bayless (17) tosses a baseball with his sister, Avery near the swamp. He’s taking a break from studying for exams, and he adores his kid sister. 
At least I can wear my hair long to cover mine. The girls at school still make fun of me. I don’t know if I can ever show my face again there after falling flat on my pimply nose while trying to get that blasted cola!
Tumblr media
Avery and Taye play ball in the yard near the water tower that provides fresh water for the Bayless family. Also Avery’s sporting her rainboots since the ground can be quite mushy in the swamps. Avery shares a special relationship with Taye as they both love the outdoors and are active. 
But here on the farm, I can just be goofy self and laugh and play in the yard. No one’s gonna see me with all this swamp grass ‘round. Don’t feel like you gotta write back. It’s just stupid stuff here, really. Don’t even know howta end so bye, I guess. ~ Aves
Tumblr media
Skye Bayless (16) plays the bass much like their older half-brother, Davis. They also have a flamboyant style. In game, when Skye aged up from toddler to child, they had a feminine hairstyle, and when they aged up to teen, Skye was actually wearing a dress. I decided Skye is gender fluid as the game encouraged me, preferring they/their as pronouns. Look at the pure joy on their face! 
Evening hangs in sultry skies; the heat of sweetgrass swaying in the sweaty breeze. The scent of sun-soaked tea tickles my nose and tempts me away from practice. I ponder little and then I play the love song only Bayucks know and beat my foot upon the porch wood. I strum the notes you taught me b’fore and think of the soft twangs on a sweltering night that barely scratch the sky for which I’m named.
Tumblr media
Skye shares a room with their older brother, Taye. Taye is a studious kid and is looking forward to university and getting out of the backwater swamp. Here he practicing writing his speech. 
How do I start? I miss you sounds trite. I love you sounds stupid. But I do, mmkay? Uni apps are due soon and M’as breathi’n down’em my neck, but ya know...what she dont’ realize is I really wanna go and be out there in the world. And somehow I know its tough for ya’s now, but you make it seem okay... that the world aint so scary if you can face everythin’g that’s you have and still come out okay. So hang on... oh and um... when you get home... I still need help with apos’trophes. - Love, Taye (and yeah, Im cool with mushyness but dont’cha tell Ma). 
Tumblr media
Little River (5) Bayless is sad. She misses her big brother very much. She also lost her doll somewhere and fears the dog took off and buried it somewhere in the swamp. 
Dear David, I miss you. I love you. My dolly is gone. I think the dog took it. I think the dog put it in the yard in the ground. I wish you was here. We could dig it up to...to...too...(it’s a big word - Chase helped me). together. ~ River 
Tumblr media
Shepherd Skeet Bayless may live in the Bayuck swamp, but he’s far from backward. True, he prefers the simple life, but he takes pride in his swamp farming skills. Here he tends to the sweetgrass his family has grown for generations and practices his sermons. After all, plants are very good listeners.
 Son, I miss you. We can’t wait for you to be home. I think it would be good to spend time in the garden together. Plants have a healing nature to them. After all, the Good Lord gave us a garden to tend to give us purpose and a place. Enclosed are my notes from my latest sermon, some psalms, and a few of your favorite hymns. I’ve taken to preaching to the plants. I know it’s dumb, probably, but they listen. I hope you’ll listen and know that you just get well and get home soon, okay? 
Tumblr media
At twilight, Chase Bayless (19), all grown up, and capturing the land she calls home on the canvas. It’s a cooler evening than most, the mists of the swamp rising up to provide some low haze. She’s home on break from uni, an Education major, and she took up painting to unwind.
Dear David, I don’t want you to worry about me. Shark Racket broke my heart all those years ago and I know how angry you were. But today he brought me a cake. He dropped it off on the porch and ran away like a sissy, but I saw him through the curtains. I think he heard about your situation somehow. Townsfolk talk. The parishoners whisper among themselves on Sundays and I don’t like it. But you don’t need to worry about it. I’ll bop any of ‘em on the nose if they speak badly about you. 
Tumblr media
Ma Bayless... Gwayne, that is, has enchantress abilities. She hoped at least one of her children would inherit her supernatural genes, but alas! No matter how many kids she popped out, not one of them is “special.” She takes out her frustrations by crafting potions (legal and illegal) in the attic of the Bayless Manor. 
Ma’am’s spendin’ most nights in the attic. I don’t think she’d admit it, but she feels guilty. She’s working on the perfect stress potion. She says it’s for her, but I don’t think so. I hear her mumblin’ to herself, hissing at herself, and she says your name a lot and that she’s uh... failed you. Don’t tell her I said that. She’d probably wring my neck like a spring chicken. 
Tumblr media
Avery, like her siblings, Davis and Skye, loves music. It brings a smile to her face every time she can tickle the ivories in the evenings. What southern home is complete without a family music room? 
The armless statue of the goddess Veni offends Pa Bayless, but Chase brought the beauty back from her studies abroad in Sim Union. After three days of arguing, Gwayne finally convinced her husband to keep the peace and allow the lady to be on display. 
Did I tell you I got to study abroad? You aren’t the only Bayless to travel now, big brother. I betcha can see my smile. I can still try and one up you, ya know? I spent some time in Championne, in the City of Lights. Oh it was beautiful! I wish you could’ve seen all the art and culture and that you could taste the scones. I’ll make you some when you return.You still like blueberries, right?
I’ve enclosed some of my silly scribblings from the trip. I hope you don’t mind. Tonight I’m painting on the porch. I can hear Skye and Avery both play different songs, and yet somehow they blend so beautifully. I think you’ve inspired them. 
Tumblr media
When she isn’t enchanting, Gwayne likes to feel the earth between her fingers. After all, an enchantress has a special relationship with nature. It’s the only time she can be “free” and doesn’t feel the pressures of motherhood and her business management career. 
And Ma’am too. You know she loves you in her own way. She spends more time in the garden now than she ever did, in the section we used to call yours. She’s trying to cut back on her hours at city hall. I think she misses you. But yeah, don’t tell her I said it. This is our secret. 
Tumblr media
Taye gets in a late night workout in a dark corner of the attic. He really wants to grow out of the “skinny boy” stereotype. Alas! I don’t think he’ll grow into those ears! 
Taye’s upstairs now fighting on the weight machine like you always did. He’s determined not to be so scrawny anymore. 
Tumblr media
In the backyard, River plays pirate in the treehouse. Land Ho! 
And River... I caught her in the treehouse you built with her and Pa tonight. She sleeps out there most nights, playing pirate into the wee morning hours. She says she’s lookin’ out for you over the Gulf. You’ve got a guardian angel you know that? Well, I should sleep. I’ve got an online class in the morning and I need my beauty rest. I hope you’re hanging in there. Hurry home. ~ Yours, Chase 
Hope you enjoyed! 
(The arc itself is NSFW, but if you want to read the chapters featuring the Bayless family directly/indirectly, you can read Unyielding and Unexpected.)

Trying to fiddle around a bit with families from worlds other than Sunset Valley, and naturally I had to start with the Bayless family. Skeet (What an... interesting name.) Is a self-employed fisherman, while his wife works on her writing career. The kids are SUFFERING hardcore, every day from exhaustion. Chase wanted a part-time job and she’s paying for it now. Also, meet another beautiful Bayless spawn, River!

The Bayless Family
Tumblr media
Howdy! My name is Chase Bayless, and this is my family. (My mom, Gwayne hates having her picture taken, which is why she won’t look into the camera. She says cameras “are the Devil’s workshop.” Whatever that means.) Anyway, as you mighta noticed, our clothes ain’t exactly the best. Gwayne says “they’re a fashion statement.” But me? I think it’s ‘cause the rich sims what puts their old clothes in the donation box, just use it to get rid of their junk. And poor sims like us, gotta take what we can. Ain’t nothin’ fashionable ‘bout it.
Anyways, that’s me standin in front, with my pa, Skeet, to my left and my brother, Tay, back by our sorta new truck. Our old one, which was newer than this’un, was repo’d by that lowdown, stinkin Clark Peddler. But luckily, we found this’un down in the junkyard and me and my pa fixed it. Well fixed it ‘nuff to get it runnin – sorta.
Tumblr media
And this is where we live. It’s not the bestest house, but the roof only leaks when it rains, so that’s good. We used to have a dog and some chickens, but those no-good gators, what moved into our pond ate all of ‘um – the dog included. 
Tumblr media
And now they won’t leave, ‘cause Gwayne keeps throwin’ our trash out for ‘um to eat, ‘cause she says it’s cheaper than payin’ the county garbage truck guy. “And they ain’t hurtin’ nobody.” Well, they ate our dog! If that ain’t hurtin somebody, I don’t know what is. But you can’t argue with my parents. Not if you know what’s good fer ya.
Tumblr media
So, this is the inside of our house. Not real fancy, but we do have a TV, so that’s good. No electric though, so we have to pretend there’s a picture on it. Which ain’t always easy, ‘cause Tay – that’s my brother – likes that Spongebob Squardeypants dude and I don’t. So when I’m pretendin that the Next Top Bridgeport Idol is on, he keeps yellin at me to change the channel. And he usually gets his way, ‘cause he goes tattlin’ on me to Skeet. And Skeet likes him best, ‘cause he’s a boy and “heir to the kingdom”. Whatever that means.
Tumblr media
You’re probably wonderin why we’ve got that fancy, ice box when we ain’t got no electric to keep it cold inside. Well, it’s another find from the junkyard, and Skeet says, iffn we ever gets the ‘lectricity, we’ll be ahead of the game. Don’t quite reckon I know what game it is, he’s talkin about, but there ain’t no point askin’ ‘cause it’ll just make him mad, and you don’t want to see my pa when he gets mad. Trust me on that one.
Tumblr media
So this is me and my mom. She’s havin’ one of those “mother-daughter binding moments”, pretendin’ she can read, which we all know she can’t. Fact is, neither one of my parents can read. And Tay ain’t much better. He mostly just argues with his teachers. But I plan on gettin’ out of here one day, and the only way to do that is by gettin’ educated. And that’s a fact.
Tumblr media
Anyway, I have to visit the outhouse before I go to bed. We used to have buckets we kept by our beds, but that just draws the skeeders, and those bloodsuckers can really bite.
So, you’re probably wonderin why I’m tellin you all this stuff. I know I would be. I mean, it’s not like I’m all that important. ‘Cause I ain’t. Or even interestin’. But last night I got this visitating dream, featurin’ a mangy cat. Called itself the Great and Mighty samkat, Simgoddess Extraordinaire! No lie! And this crazy cat told me to start keepin a journal, ‘cause it’s got “great plans” for me, and other sims need to know how marvelous he?….she?…..it is. Personally? I think I ate one too many crawdads and got me some of that indigestion. But, no point arguin’ with a dream cat, especially when I woke up this mornin’ and found this here book by my bed and a note that said, “Start writing, cupcake! I’m watching you!”
So, that’s what I’m gonna do. At least for a bit.

Aisaka Legacy: Family Overview
[DISCLAIMER] This is a repost of what used to be the “Family Overview” window in my blog. It was first written about a year ago, perhaps more, when I started the Aisaka Legacy.

#NewBeginningsChallenge - Twinbrook (Part 3)
In this part, the wild stuff begins. I switch control to the Bayless family. While Skeet is at work I attempt to start my killing routine for another time. But not for the rest of the family! Little Tay gets taken away by the social worker, tried to starve him twice. On the first try he ate something from the fridge. And I killed Gwayne and teen Chase. A set of Sims, namely Jasmine and Adrian, get married. Their (adopted) dog Peanut ages up, and its thumbnail appears black. I decide to put it up for adoption. Through MasterController, I attempt to turn Jasmine into a fairy. And I did, with great success. Tay cancels his action of eating food before it's too late and the pet adoption social worker comes at home. We let the rest watch TV until the social worker came at their place and took away Tay. The funny thing was that BOTH social workers came at the same time!!
Skeet finally becomes widowed. He tries to escape from his widow life and find love through Bobby Sargeant's eyes. His wife Scout died in game. And Bobby was a widow, too. They finally fall in love, and since Bobby rejected Skeet's proposal, we got him to move in. Jasmine and Adrian move houses, and they move to Bobby's old house.
...Back to my current household! Howard, Nate & their cat Hazel. Strange as it may seem, Hazel mastered the Hunting skill and the boys had an unexpected visitor at home. A random man who is not  associated with neither Howard nor Nate, they're friends with one of them. Evening time, and Nate goes out with this guy. They witness an old age death at The Red Rendezvous, Nate tries to flirt with this guy, he changed his mind of leaving but in the end they played foosball together. They headed home.
Sunday morning and Howard decides to do the laundry. He even messed with the washing machine and repaired it so it does not become unbreakable! Nate rakes the leaves, increases his nerd influence, attends a meet & greet at the bookstore, and watches TV with Howard.
For this post AND/OR every #NewBeginningsChallenge I curate which pics I want to share to avoid errors and censorship. They are clean and LGBTQ+ friendly!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The story goes on... I hope you enjoy! :)
Until next time, Joanne :)

These kids could say a lot of things, but they could never say they ain’t loved. Skeet would bend over backwards and walk on all fours to keep these guys laughing. In fact, he’s often late for work because he forgets how to say no-- Ends up teaching Chase about driving until sundown, fishing with Tay before the sun starts coming up. He’s happy to let Gwayne lay down the law, she’s the one that’s good at it!

The first trimester where some of the most stressful times of Mrs. And Mr. Bayless’s lives-- and, you know, they got evicted once. Skeet got a second job like he promised, but not even that was enough. He had to start hauling the kids to the junkyard on the weekends to help sell scrap metal. And of course they weren’t happy to help. He had to spend time he didn’t have buttering the things up so they wouldn’t revolt. It was more like he has three jobs instead of two.
And just when things where going good on the money side, BLAM! House fire! You know how much a damn stove cost? Ain’t that just the way? Gotta have money to keep money in this nasty world.
And Gwayne didn’t exactly have her feet up, neither. No, no, no. This pregnancy wasn’t like that last two. She never felt more sick, more hungry, and more tired in her entire life. She used up all her sick and vacation days because it was so hard on her body.
Somehow they made it, though. They got through this rut! Skeet got in touch with an old buddy of his who worked construction. They got the new room built for the little guy, and Skeet thought it’d be safe to quit those extra jobs. Then they found out they where having twins...boy did that dream die fast!

But when Skeet leaves the law up to Gwayne...She has no choice in the matter. She doesn’t get to be the fun one, ‘cause the jobs been taken. So when Tay decides to sleep in his tree house instead of sleep on the bus to school, that’s on Gwayne. And when the kids and the man make a mess, that’s on Gwayne. Gwayne’s tired. She works all day, she comes home to more work. She’s very tired. Too tired to cuddle...or anything else.

"Skeet, stop fishing.”
“AH!” Skeet jumped and started slipping on the bank, nearly falling into the river. He thought he was all alone out here!
“Jesus Mary Joseph, Gwayne!” He barked out as he scrambled back up to the path(and unassisted, he’d like to add). When he got his bearings, he looked up at her, a little upset. “What you trying to do now, kill me?”
“I got to tell you something...” She said, looking away from him. Gwayne never dropped eye contact with anyone, not even a rabid dog. Sensing the scale of things, skeet stepped closer to her. She grabbed his arm and pulled him closer still.
“Well, go on now, spit it out.” He said gently.
“There’s another one on the way.” She blurted out.
“Another what? Repo? isn’t it only the 5th-”
Gwayne grabbed his hand with both of hers and slapped it onto her stomach. “Another baby, Skeet.”
Skeet pulled her into a big hug, his eyes already welling up.
“Now hold on, hold on, don’t go crying yet.” She pleaded, “We gotta talk money. We don’t have any space; we’re behind on electricity-- We got to figure this out!”
“And we will!” Skeet promised. “ we always do! You got your promotions on the way, and I’ll pick up a second job. I’ll do everything I can, and then some, sugar.”
Gwayne really needed to hear that. She’d had been scared ever sense she first started to suspect, but he gave her peace of mind. They would figure it out. They really do always do.
