    hamburgerfaye: Those two are gorgeous! I definitely love Starla's eyes and Scarlet is too cute as a werewolf. :)

    Zabeth0: Thanks for the comment. :) Yes, Jake will make a perfect heir. I love his dazzling green eyes. :D Dexter hasn't grown on me yet. I find him more annoying than anything, so I don't know yet. Harmony will most likely be their last kid for a long long while. Olivia needs to focus on her career.

    Nik24X7: Thanks for the comments. I guess I didn't notice that, lol. I love that show. :D Thank you. :)

    Puddinroy: Thanks for the comments. :)

    Colorist40: Thanks for the comments. :D I'm sorry, but I like every family to have at least one girl. To me, sims are like my Barbie dolls. The girls are so fun to dress up and give make-overs to.

    The reason I wanted to cry is because I had her eat watermelons and she still got a boy. That doesn't make me love Jake any less though. :)

    I don't know how she's always so gorgeous. Maybe I'm just lucky when it comes to my sims?

    I'm sorry you don't like James's make-over. But those jeans are what he's been wearing and the hoodie is the only cooler weather type top I could find that didn't make him look like a total nerd and didn't look weird against his body shape since he is pretty buff. I don't really have any male custom content since I don't really like what they have out there. I'm very picky when it comes to my male sims.

    Lol, I guess there was something in that drink. I'm going to turn their skilling room into a bedroom for her. I don't want her sharing a room with the butler, lol.

    TadOlson[/b]: Thanks for the comments. :)

    LunBeauty I've had two households adopting pets in Winfield and they all look very cute when they're little,but they are in the households for life unless the Sims honestly had to give them up for a very good reason.
    Here's my Oak Leaf update.
    Eli and Ami Jankowsky were both getting up and getting ready for the day while there was a rainbow in the sky outside.They spent most of the morning tending to the plants in the planter boxes.
    13570326894_2d93be3f21.jpg
    Eli started getting ready for work while Ami was still working on the planters.
    13569964685_44a33737c1.jpg
    They both left for work by 3:30 and weren't home until 7PM.They both had to stop to eat before going to bed.
    13570335094_0e5ae8440f.jpg
    Eli and Ami both were getting into bed by 8PM and went to sleep quickly.

    LunBeauty: I think LuckyPalms is absolutely gorgeous and has the most amazing
    sunsets ever. It is a fun town to play in. Olivia is preggers again? I love
    having little girls for the very same reason you do, but I do cheat with
    watermelons because it is that important...in RL you can't do that.
    Dexter is doo-doo on toast? Hehehehe, funny. He's cute and kinda looks like a
    way miniature bear cub. Please notice I said, Kinda.
    Robin is a tiny adorable who has a wee issue with the shapes box. Don't worry
    sweetie, I have a feeling I did too at your age.
    ewwww, I see Olivia has found the potty "package" it is a nose wrinkler.
    oh it would put such a smile on Jame's face if Olivia showed up in a skimpy
    cheerleader outfit..till he notices he isn't the only one oogling her show of
    fine skin...hehehe then he might not like it so much.
    The Butler seems typical...I personally do not like them. 1. They make way too
    much food. 2. you can't stop them from making too much food. Then they do get
    in the way, take up space and they are annoying.
    The watermelon flavored prenant diet better not be broken. It is all my sim eats
    while she is preggers...nothing else touches her lips the whole time. So far, it
    has always worked. I think little Jake is proof that it has a fail rate. um, better
    luck next time? He does have those intensely gorgeous eyes. He will be a handsome
    gent no doubt. LOL, he already has been crowned next heir.
    Olivia looks sharp in her fall wardrobe. I like the hoodie James is wearing, it is
    a favorite of mine, acually. Maybe because it does have the worn look, like a saved
    favorite someone might really have hanging in their closet...one piece you never
    shed even if it looks like something Good Will tossed out. Robin is quite handsome.
    I hope Jake doesn't know he is the heir...hehehe, he will tell Robin and hurt his
    feelings.
    You can always take Dexter into CAS and perform a little magic. Isn't it odd how
    puppies are so cute and they age up and it's like....ewwwwwwm, really?
    Then I just fix mine...pets have to look right.
    Adopting hardly works out well...the kids are always chubby and you can't fix
    that even in CAS...they still plump out no matter what you do....sooooo wrong.
    I just love the restaurant...my town is gonna get one too...did you use the venue
    or build...it doesn't look like the venue and I like the colors. I've not used
    the venue much so I forget what it looks like.
    Maybe in Olivia's pg state she just feels better reaching out and "touching" someone.
    Even random strangers? It could happen, I guess. The only thing she might get the
    butler to do is share cocktails..pickle cake...naw, it doesn't sound good.
    Harmony is cute...I like it. Congratulations on getting your baby girl.

    TadOlson: Great update. :)

    wickichick: Lucky Palms is probably my favorite store world. It's just so big and vibrant. There's just so much room for expansion. I kinda want Olivia to get her kids out of the way at once, that way she can focus on other things.

    Olivia definitely inherited her mother's body. I don't use custom sliders because I don't trust them. So I'm proud of how she turned out.

    I don't think the watermelons work 100% of the time. It's supposed to just raise your chances of getting a girl. When she was pregnant with Harmony, all she ate was watermelons. Harmony will probably be her last kid. If she wants another one, I'll have her adopt.

    I personally love the clothes that EA has for the men. To me, a lot of the male custom content is basically just recolors or edits of items that are already in the game. So I don't bother downloading them.

    My only beef with adoption is that 80% of the time, the kids end up with that pudding face that I hate so much. The only adopted sim that I really really loved was Brandon and Felicia's daughter, Camellia.

    Here's the thing. The items from the store venues that I have show up in my game, but the venues themselves aren't in my Community Lots library at all. I've tried uninstalling reinstalling, deleting, downloading again, reinstalling. So...I don't know. So, what I did was I turned one of the nicer bars in that world into a restaurant. I just put the menus on the tables, made a small kitchen area, added in a few professional bars and called it good. I think upstairs I'm going to put in a few casino items next time.

    Deedee: "Non profit organization, works on charities, donations, charity auctions, helping artists market their artwork online and taking a small fee, only like 2%. Most classes will be free, though there will be occasionally a class with a fee for special guests or fundraising days. Also, movers and shakers around town support this place so that they can try to attract outside talent. Basically, the coffee is in the advertising budget. That means free coffee for a long time to come...no actual food, though. They've got a lot of donations and a lot of volunteers. Oh, wait, I should have pretended I don't know, or I'll be too smart and it'll kill the attraction, huh?"

So, yeah, this place is open twenty four hours a day, you could literally sleep on one of the couches but you'll still have to leave for food...that being the case, want to come back to my place? I can totally cook. Also, I've got this shower... I'd love to see what you look like under all that make up."

    LunBeauty- You had her watch and listen to the kids channel throughout her whole pregnancy and you still didn't get twins or triplets?! That's unlucky or lucky I guess, depends how you look at it :P
    Thankyou :D They get it from Bianca.
    Aw Dexter may be loud and destructive but look how little and cute he is :D
    Robin is like :D:D :x lol how cute.
    Olivia's face actually looks like she's in pain, well she does have her arm in a wall so fair enough :P
    James looks happy about the pregnancy. I'm glad Olivia is a wonderful mum, it's nice when you get a sim who is great with their kids.
    I know you didn't want a boy but he is cute! Robin does make a cute little boy. I'm so glad she had a little girl :D I like the name too, it's not off the wall to me. I give my sims some pretty strange names :lol:

    Colorist40- Yep I've thought about firing that maid a couple of times, but she usually does a good job and if I fire her I could get someone worse.
    Haha I don't get snow where I live so, yay snowman building!! :lol:
    Thanks :D
    Poor Betty, being second wife to Waheed will definitely make her unhappy. And Elisia has to tell her, that would be a hard conversation to have. I couldn't imagine being in a relationship like that, I would never be able to talk like that or put up with a man like Anson.

    Wickichick- Of course :wink: and it's easier for them to become boyfriend/girlfriend if they have known each other since they were kids.
    Haha spooky hey, it's a décor wardrobe with shadows. I thought it was cool :P
    Thanks, I like doing the side by side photos to compare them easily. I can't wait to see them all as young adults.
    I love hearing about the vampuric ways, it's so interesting. It's good they had solitude, it would have made it easier just being able to focus on themselves.

    Nik24X7- Thankyou :D Yeah I have thought about firing that maid many times :lol:
    Thanks I think Kandee's gorgeous too, makes me wish I didn't stop playing her family.
    That's good that you saw the hairstyles you were looking at, it's always easier to decide if you like them when you see them in game first.
    Thankyou I do spend time composing my photos, it's nice that you can tell :D
    Veronica and Zhiang officially being together makes me so happy! I love them together :D
    Twins?! :D Jason and Stella are so cute! Love that they have different hair colours.

    Zabeth0- Haha that's true and the town could use a few more beautiful sims. Lol yes! I should get the cowplant on to her if she messes up again :lol:
    :shock: there is, yep it's a décor wardrobe.
    That's great! I bet that's what he was thinking (he loves that hat :lol: )
    Ooh they would make a great band :D
    Go Deedee, come on Rafael you know you want to :wink: I like Deedee, she's really pretty :D

    hamburgerfaye- Yep Starla and Scarlet are pretty as well :D I love how the producers found her dancing on a bar :lol: that's a good way to get noticed. They are going to make things interesting, especially because they are so close just like Meredith and Mandy. Mykale will love it though :wink:

    @MayaRose1138 - Which Exchange World are you playing in, might I ask? It's always nice to know which ones people like. As for your sims, I don't watch a whole lot of TV so I have no idea.

    I've got Blue Rivers, which had no occupants and that's why I wanted to use it for the male pregnancy experiment (more details on that later). It's okay but there's nothing there and I can't put any civic hall or military base on there, and one of the grocery shops didn't work properly.

    The other one is Hidden Valley, which my Beatrice character is in but I haven't done anything with yet. Except for the fact that there is no gate around her new house (pre-loaded), everything is okay so far.

    @wickichick Don't forget to vote for the mother. I see you haven't done that yet. Wanted to remind you in case you thought you did and didn't. Winner posted tomorrow as normal lol.

    Good morning all. I will be back later to post comments and cry if the bakery venue isn't up lol. I am thinking it might not be, because that photo blog in simgurutatertots write up isn't out yet, but some people in the store are reminding us the Bohemian Garden blog came out the same day the Garden was released. We shall see, but I am so excited, yet I have a sinking feeling I am doomed to be disappointed today :(

    Well there is more to life than pixelated content, so if it doesn't come out, I will cry, kick, scream, rail at the fates and move on. :lol: It would help if I could have some bakery in real life, but had to give that up. sigh. Ah well if I can't have any my sims will have to wait at least they will eventually get them :lol:

    It was a dark dark night in Lucky Palms when Starla and Scarlet had gotten the call to grab their bags, that a limo was waiting outside for them to whisk them away to the house and meet Mykale. The girls drank champagne and giggled on the ride over, devouring the star treatment, and Starla went right into the house when they arrived without so much as ringing the doorbell. Mykale had just finished showering as Starla made her way through the house, checking out each room to the fullest.

    Of course he heard her, as he has sonic vampire hearing, but as far as he knew it could have been one of the crew members setting up. He was quite surprised when he came out to the living room and found this lovely aqua haired beauty standing before him.

    Screenshot-13283_zps774f868c.jpg


    "Well, hello there STUD! My, my, my," Starla said as he undressed Mykale with her eyes. "Arent you just a pile of sugar!"

    Mykale wasnt certain what that meant, but he had to admit, the woman was attractive. "Im guessing youre a new housemate? Hi. My name is Mykale." He extended his hand to her.

    "Oh, I know who you are, baby. My name is Starla and I am definitely your new roommate."

    Screenshot-13288_zps43633400.jpg


    "Starla... Starla... why does that name sound so familiar to me?" Starla didnt answer, only gave a wicked smile. Lost in thought, Mykale somehow missed her coming for his face until she was upon her, pressing her lips firmly against his. He didnt protest. She tasted like strawberries and he willingly kissed her back.

    Screenshot-13339_zps5d739fc9.jpg


    "Wow... um, you move so fast."

    "I couldnt help it. I just wanna touch you so badly. And you know you wanted it, too!"

    Screenshot-13325_zps829c6ce3.jpg


    "I did, but... something... I cant place my finger on it. Something just isnt.. it isnt adding up," Mykale stuttered. Suddenly, it came to him. "Starla! Starla is a very odd name, I knew I had heard it before. Dont tell me youre Mandys Starla. Her ex-best friend who "stole" her boyfriend?"

    Screenshot-13290_zpsd8cbf0b3.jpg


    The smile never left her face. "Yep, thats me! Knowing Mandy, you know shes a drama queen so take whatever crapp she said about me and just throw it away. She is a two faced liar, through and through."

    Screenshot-13298_zps6034271b.jpg


    Mykale was starting to not like this new girl as much as he thought he would. He loved Mandy and she was talking crapp about her. Not to mention, she was the one who had hurt her so badly. Why would the producers pick THIS girl to come on the show? Oh, yeah. Drama ratings. They had warned him they were going after drama. He knew this wasnt going to be pretty. He had to try his best to head it off now, if he could.

    "Perhaps you have both hurt one another in the past, but maybe what we can all learn from this is how to heal and move past these thing... tend these old wounds finally and come out better than before. Look, we just had a bunch of crazy drama in this house with Ophelia and I dont... we.. we dont want a repeat of that. I need you to promise me youre going to try to connect with EVERYONE here and make amends with Mandy. Can we do this?"

    Starla looked wide eyed and Mykale wasnt sure what that meant.

    Screenshot-13316_zpsc0dbcfbc.jpg

    But what she said was "Um, okay. We can, like, try, I guess."

    Obviously, neither of them were too pleased with how this was going, so Mykale decided to take it upon himself to take a break and go get some fresh night air.

    Screenshot-13308_zpse74faf13.jpg



    Outside, he found Scarlet sitting under the stars, gazing up with a serene look dancing on her face.

    "Hi," Mykale said, but the beautiful woman did not answer. The cameras were all on her, two to be exact, so he thought surely she was a new housemate also? "Are yuo one of the new girls?"

    "OH! I didnt even see you there! Im sorry," she giggled. "Have a seat!"

    Mykale did what she asked. She seemed to have a better vibe than Starla, so he settled right into her as she gazed dreamily at the night sky.

    Screenshot-13395_zps6e151d19.jpg

    "So... um... whatcha lookin' at?"

    "The moon," she said with a sigh, a hint of longing in her voice.

    "Yeah, its really pretty tonight. Its still really bright because the full moon was just a couple of nights ago."

    "I know," she said, that dreamy quality still in her voice.

    "Well, Im Mykale..."

    "I know that, too."

    "Okay, well tell me something I dont know. Whats your name? Tell me about yourself."

    She giggled again and stood up, playfully tugging at Mykales arm. Settling in at the little table and chairs on the patio, she gave Mykale a nod and he joined her.

    "Im Scarlet and I was asked to come here. Id watched your show before. I mean," she giggled again, " youre really cute. I thought it would be fun. Well, they actually asked my best friend Starla to come and they said she should bring me with her, so, I guess thats whats up with me. What about you? Why are they bringing in new people? Did something happen with Ophelia, Mandy, and Meredith?"

    "I guess I forget that the show is a couple of weeks behind from real life. Ophelia moved out and shes pregnant with my child. Meredith and Mandy are still here, but because we now have Kale, we were dropped from the last network and picked up by Coyote, who wanted to bring you girls in.

    Screenshot-13346_zps39995e45.jpg


    "You do know about Mandy and Starla, right? Thats got to be why they asked you girls to come here. Mandy is not going to like this one bit, I can tell you that. Starla slept with her fiance and then when Mandy tried to say they could all be together, Starla and the man ran off together."

    "Starla tells a different story," Scarlet said.

    "Well?"

    "Oh, thats so not my place. This is something the two of you need to discuss."

    Mykale sighed. "I guess youre right." He knew she was right, but now he really wanted the answer to that question. What was the truth there? How had it really went down? Granted, he could have went into the house and found Starla right that instant and asked her about it himself, but the truth was, he was really liking being outside under the moon with Scarlet. She was pretty and she smelled nice, like vanilla and sandalwood and underneath that the sweet sweet scent of cooper; the thick blood coursing through her veins.

    Screenshot-13363_zps7eec749e.jpg


    He blew her a kiss

    Screenshot-13376_zps68b520a5.jpg

    and he thought she was just the cutest thing. Her expressions were exaggerated and he could already tell she took an extra joy in life and the simple things. She seemed to like to laugh and be cheerful, much like his wonderful Meredith.

    "You know, we have a hot tub just right over there in the corner," Mykale said with a wink.

    Scarlet was quick to jump in and start splashing around, her playful nature showing through.

    Screenshot-13449_zpsbcdd130f.jpg

    Mykale was totally at ease with this chick.. and this fast? Was it pure love or did he just fall too easy? At this moment, he didnt really care.

    He invited Scarlet for a little snuggle

    Screenshot-13457_zps842e824b.jpg

    and though she was hesitant, she did oblige.

    Screenshot-13460_zpsd1b07747.jpg


    True to Mykales style, he was soon feeling head over heels in love with this wonderful smelling woman, wrapped in one anothers arms and locking lips oh so softly.

    Screenshot-13473_zpsdf8264d3.jpg


    One thing led to another (Oh Mykale... but doesnt it always with you!!!)

    Screenshot-13489_zps8829d429.jpg


    and they did the vertical woohoo under the hot steamy waters of the Jacuzzi. Oh, they are going to want to clean that thing!

    Screenshot-13492_zpsdaa2fb69.jpg


    And though it was obvious that neither of them regretted their hasty decision

    Screenshot-13496_zps818b91a3.jpg


    Scarlet still asked Mykale if he could keep it a secret. She didnt want her best friend mad at her and she didnt want the others girls to judge her like that right off the bat before they had a chance to get to know her.

    Screenshot-13428_zps414e11ee.jpg


    The night had been long, and as the sun began to sneak out from behind the earth once more, Mykale drifted off towards bed while Starla and Scarlet did the same.

    Screenshot-13254_zps266b7781.jpg


    Scarlet tucked herself in near her friend

    Screenshot-13253_zps372ae588.jpg

    and was glad that she couldnt tell she had been really intimate with Mykale. She told Starla she had kissed him, but said that was all, and Starla fell for it. She hoped keeping this from her didnt come around to bite her in the bootiecheeks...

    Hello thread, real life update. I didn't get Diablo but have been too busy to get on my computer lately. Then last night, one of my axolotls turned out to be 'pregnant'. (They can lay up to 1000 eggs) So I won't be able to play for a while but I can try and get through 30 pages of updates for today.

    Starting from page 159

    hamburgerfaye - Your twins are pretty, I love the accessories you use. Can you really get hybrids though? I may have to download their mother.
    Didn't they have white and black witches in TS2? Ah, nostalgia. I can't help but like Ophelia despite her troublemaking. Meredith sure is thin for being so far gone. :-o I had a glitch when Elisif was pregnant with Lydia and didn't have a bump.

    Baker9793 - Nice little story, I've never seen an alien baby yet. Though the only sims I've ever had abducted were Elisif and Kyle oddly enough.

    Zabeth - I loved your comment about their date. :P Some of your pictures aren't showing either, still a great story though.

    TadOlson - Great update, I like the style of your houses.

    and-it-is-on - I love that chair too, and that's a really cute family photo.

    GBA91101 - Great updates. Poor Marty, but that's karma for him. :P

    Nik24X7 - Great updates.

    rednenemon - Aw, some of your pics aren't showing now. That's such a cute little family, cat included. I was going to use your sim in my next family but I realised they would be too alike. :oops:

    wickichick - Your updates are very intriguing.

    Mikezumi - How cute, Nutmeg is an interesting name.

    Edit 2, from page 165. (Unless I have a specific comment I won't repeat people)

    Mayarose - Cute triplets and twins, I like the way sims get an automatic interaction to feed fish in the room. And that glitch. :D

    justin5812 - That sounds interesting, I love little houses.

    Lunbeauty - I love your plantsim. I want one.


    Dragonrose - Your story is very well written and interesting. Makes me wanna play now

    Colorist40 - The castle looks amazing :)

    hamburgerfaye - I like the dream (nightmare?) update, a nice touch to the story. It's a premade in Midnight Hollow that I made some changes to, it's also a bit cluttered up but I don't mind uploading it. Your dogs are adorable. <3
    Starla is very pretty, things should get (even more) interesting.

    Dreamerz - Great update, Blake getting arrested and his protest. :lol:

    -I'm rushing it a little now. I want to get through all the pages by tonight but little things keep popping up.

    and-it-is-on - The photo's on the wall are a nice touch, I mean to but never use them. Again, you're sims are very pretty.

    -Just noticed the bakery on the store. It looks very good but I'm done spending money on the store.

    TristanandPiper - I can imagine half the forum raging if they had that glitch. :mrgreen:

    Lunbeauty - Such cute kids

    I made it! Apologies if I missed anyone off, I did read every story. Great updates everyone. :)

    Hello thread, real life update. I didn't get Diablo but have been too busy to get on my computer lately. Then last night, one of my axolotls turned out to be 'pregnant'. (They can lay up to 1000 eggs) So I won't be able to play for a while but I can try and get through 30 pages of updates for today.

    :shock: Wow that is ambitious. Good luck, but if you can't do it all just comment on those you want. I know how it is to be 5 pages behind lol.

    Nice to see you again. Hope you can come back regular soon.

    hamburgerfaye: Those two are gorgeous! I definitely love Starla's eyes and Scarlet is too cute as a werewolf. :)

    Zabeth0: Thanks for the comment. :) Yes, Jake will make a perfect heir. I love his dazzling green eyes. :D Dexter hasn't grown on me yet. I find him more annoying than anything, so I don't know yet. Harmony will most likely be their last kid for a long long while. Olivia needs to focus on her career.

    Nik24X7: Thanks for the comments. I guess I didn't notice that, lol. I love that show. :D Thank you. :)

    Puddinroy: Thanks for the comments. :)

    Colorist40: Thanks for the comments. :D I'm sorry, but I like every family to have at least one girl. To me, sims are like my Barbie dolls. The girls are so fun to dress up and give make-overs to.

    The reason I wanted to cry is because I had her eat watermelons and she still got a boy. That doesn't make me love Jake any less though. :)

    I don't know how she's always so gorgeous. Maybe I'm just lucky when it comes to my sims?

    I'm sorry you don't like James's make-over. But those jeans are what he's been wearing and the hoodie is the only cooler weather type top I could find that didn't make him look like a total nerd and didn't look weird against his body shape since he is pretty buff. I don't really have any male custom content since I don't really like what they have out there. I'm very picky when it comes to my male sims.

    Lol, I guess there was something in that drink. I'm going to turn their skilling room into a bedroom for her. I don't want her sharing a room with the butler, lol.

    TadOlson[/b]: Thanks for the comments. :)

    I was being tongue in cheek about the outfit of James. I don't mind it. I just was thinking being a guy typical, sloppy. He is handsome in whatever he wears soooo lol.

    BTW I do agree about having girls. I love girls so much more to customize them with clothes, jewelry, makeup etc. I find boys boring to dress. Just like me in rl I wanted a girl, got a boy, but wasn't willing to go through that again just in the hopes of having a girl lol.

    hamburgerfaye: Ya know I never ask anyone to divulge personal information
    because I am aware there are children in the threads and as a mom and grand-

    of their lack of life experience...but it's fun, I have to say, when someone
    offers something about themselves...three kids is really nice.

    That is what my
    plan was. Once my third child was born, I had an incident that resulted in twins.
    My third born arrived in Sept. and my twins arrived in Aug. the following year.
    My little trio have always liked that for awhile they are all the same age.

    You are one busy lady! How do you manage it all? I am completely wowed over.

    That is exactly why I want everyone to know that to comment on what you can is
    all I care about. Otherwise, simmers like yourself couldn't be here and I very
    much get that.

    LOL, I can do more because I am a little old lady living alone. My kids are
    scattered and in the winter I don't travel.

    I want this thread to thrive and grow. It is better to have lots of people
    who comment on what they can than having no-one or a few.

    I'm really glad you joined this thread and perhaps you can be the reason why
    more people will stop lurking and start joining.

    Not necessary to comment on everything....and a person should have fun commenting
    on what they choose to. It's better than coming here stressed out and dreading
    the many pages to catch up on.
    Instead, look forward to those you connect to and have fun.

    Twins! So lucky ♥ Are they identical? Thats super cool!

    Thank you! Its busy and not always easy to fit in everything that needs to be done AND keep my house clean LMAO!

    Oh I def look forward to this thread. I am trying to stay caught up and coment on everything I find interesting, but I find dont have the time I want to devote. Regardless, it doesnt stress me out one bit! I like it, and I like the new friends I am making here ♥ Its always cool to have friends that share your passions :D

    hamburgerfaye- I'm so glad Meredith figured out that Mykale was under a spell. Things could have gone so much worse. Man Ophelia is evil, but she sure makes things interesting :P

    I love Dana! she is super pretty and has great style. And Maxx, what a cutie :D Their dates looked like fun. I'd love to see what their mum looks like.
    I love all your sims omg <3

    Thank you, thank you! I love them too :mrgreen: hahahaha

    Wow, this thread really took off in one night. :shock: I guess I'd better get started on the comments. :lol:

    hamburgerfaye: At least MyKale seems happy about the baby. But he's still horrible for not really listening to them about Ophelia. I guess he only sees her beauty and is blind to everything else, especially Mandy's feelings. Either that, or he doesn't really care.

    I think he has a selfish nature and doesnt stop to consider anyone elses feelings for quite a bit, at first anyways. He also falls in love SUPER friggin quickly :lol: He is a romantic at heart, but not one much for monogamy hahahaha ;)

    Hi!

    @hamburgerfaye - All of your Sims are lovely! You must spend a lot of time in CAS creating them. Mykale continues to be quite the player! How he manages to romance so many women under the same roof and also maintain the peace astounds me. He must have the No Jealousy LTR. As for Mykale, I'm wondering whether he really does want to settle down with one woman some day or whether he's just telling each of them what they want to hear. I guess I'll find out as your story progresses. Mandy and Mykale's hot air balloon ride looked fun! Their sunrise engagement was interesting, albeit brief. Good for her for speaking her mind about Ophelia! As for Ophelia, Heaven hath no fury like a dark witch scorned! Interesting how Ophelia channeled her rage through Mandy towards Mykale! Very creative! I must say, I'm finding Ophelia to be a delicously delightful character! Ah, so Meredith is now pregnant and Mandy is thinking of leaving. Such drama! As for your second family, the single mom with two sets of twins, they're once again quite stunningly beautiful! How do you have supernatural hybrids? Are you using mods for that? Must be. I'm definitely liking Meredith, too. She's interesting while not being evil. Well done!

    Phew! I just spent four hours going through about a dozen pages and making comments! It feels good to be caught up!

    Best Regards,
    Nik

    Yes, yes, I do spend a lot of time in CAS. I really lobe custom content as well as spending a lot of time crafting unique faces. My passion for that began in sims 2, I LOVED the body shop program and created a lot of sims on modthesims2 back then. With custom sliders in sims 3 as well as slider increase mods, its possible to get such a wide awesome range of unique simmys. My fave thing tho is mixing those genes Ive cretaed in game for BIG sims ♥

    Mykale got the no jealousy reward first, followed by Meredith and eventually Mandy. It makes things run a lot smoother. If you ever try a poly household, I highly recommend it lol :D I dont think Mykale is the right sim for monogomy. If he tried it, I have a feeling he would cheat, even if I left them alone for story progression, I would probably come back to find some new romantic interests hahaha ;)

    Ophelia is a LOT of fun, but she def made the household more chaotic. Which was kinda fun and funny for a while but I thought it best to give them peace and have her leave. I knew the other girls certainly wanted it ;)

    I use Nraas mods for my hybrids. You can either create them adding another occult state with the master controller mod or set your story progression pregnancy options to naturally have multiple occult states of the parents applied to the offspring. You use the hybrid nraas mod to ensure when traveling that the occult states arent lost. You can add them with just MC and SP, but sometimes wont have full effects of both OS and will lose them when traveling to anywhere but your home world. I love the occults so much that its a great add on for me :D

    Oh and Meredith is probably one of my all time fave sims ♥ I just love her. Shes such a pleasure and so pretty too

    I decided it might be fun as each child is featured and the contest ends it would be nice to have me post the child as a child along with a pic of dad and mom so you can see how much he/she looks. As a toddler it is kind of hard, but you all did great.

    screenshot_original.jpg

    James the father of course.

    Antonina the mother

    Tio as a child.



    So far I think Tio is my fave. Id love to continue to see photos of all the babes as they grow! How is the polyhousehold working though? Id love to see/hear more about that personally!!!!! :D

    H!

    I finally have another update for you all. Let me recap, since it's been quite a few pages since my last update.

    Screenshot-3900a_zpsb425e899.jpg

    Veronica Landgraab and Zhiang-Lian Kim are attending their first semester at Sims University. The Landgraabs invited Zhiang to stay with them during breaks, holidays, and weekends. Zhiang and Veronica spent part of the summer together in Roaring Heights prior to attending university. Veronica initially developed a bit of a crush on Zhiang, but he seemed unaware of her feelings. Since starting at University, Veronica met Chaz Kasrin, the son of a ranching family from Appaloosa Plains. She now seems smitten with him. So what will she do now? It was time for Veronica and Zhiang to have a heart-to-heart talk. It's now Saturday morning, the morning after Veronica met Chaz at the Luminous Bar.

    Screenshot-3876a_zps8dd14190.jpg

    Veronica: Zhiang, I've been meaning to talk with you. We're friends, right?

    Zhiang: Yes, Veronica, we're friends. Our families have known one another for many years now. I'd say we're very good friends.

    Veronica: Okay. But I . . . er . . . . um . . . .

    Zhiang: It's okay, Veronica. You can say anything to me. No need to be tongue tied.

    Veronica: But have you ever given any thought as to who you would marry some day?

    Zhiang: Oh, I see where this is going. [No, he doesn't] My father and my stepmother will choose a suitable bride for me once I complete my studies. The dowry will be negotiated. That is how it is done in Shang SimLa. Of course, it won't be decided without my input. If I'm lucky, they'll let me find my own bride and introduce her to them. But that will be many years off. They instructed me to focus on my studies. It is imporant that I do well at University. I do not want to disappoint them.

    Veronica: No, Zhiang, that's not what I meant. What I meant was . . . um . . . have you ever considered a western girl? Someone not from China?

    Zhiang: Maybe. I might be most fortunate to find a suitable bride here at Sims University. But my studies must come first.

    Screenshot-3882a_zpsea4343e3.jpg

    Veronica [sensing that this conversation wasn't going the way she thought it would go]: Alright then. I'll guess I'll leave you. leave you to your studies.

    Screenshot-3883a_zps9a4f36c5.jpg

    Veronica: Zhiang, I just thought of something I've gotta do. Something that can't wait. I'll see you later.

    Zhiang: Thank you, Veronica. Good luck with your task.

    Screenshot-3884a_zps355af056.jpg

    Zhiang thinks to himself that that was a very unusual conversation. He's not sure if he fathomed what it was all about. He hoped that Veronica wasn't somehow disappointed in him. He wondered whether he should have told her that she's very special to him. She held a very special place in his heart. He had feelings for her. [Duh!] He missed his chance.

    Screenshot-3885a_zps09479993.jpg

    Meanwhile, Veronica was thinking to herself: that didn't go well. I was hoping he would share his heart with me. Let me know that he returns my affection. Guess he's too focused on his studies.

    Veronica was more confused than ever.

    * * *


    It broke his heart seeing Veronica with the cowboy, but he was resolved to move on.

    Screenshot-4002a_zps3d122541.jpg

    But the fire brought little comfort to him.

    Screenshot-3959a_zps75dd9f8a.jpg

    But what's this?

    Screenshot-4051a_zps486a81d0.jpg

    As morning approached, the sun rose above the horizon. So much had changed. And it would appear that Veronica and the cowboy had decided to go steady.

    Screenshot-4048a_zpsaec1baa9.jpg

    The cowboy seemed to be quite pleased with her decision.


    That's it for now. We'll see what happens next in my next update.

    Best Regards,
    Nik








    I always love your town screenies! Theyre so beautiful ♥

    Your sims are so cool, too. Theyre so classy and well put together. I think their romance is precious and love that they are at Uni together. Sometimes hearts have to be broken for true love to be found! Regardless, so cute!

    @hamburgerfaye I don't really have a story of the polyfamily you guys are voting on for the contest. I just played them for fun. I don't think it would be very interesting just posting pics, and I have two stories on here I write and a blog of another family, so if I wrote a story for this family I think it would be too much for me and for everyone else who are following my other two lol. My blog is full of drama and a sort of extended poly family in a way. Here is the link if you want to start following http://hulinlegacy.weebly.com Not saying you have to, but if you decide to you have to start at the bottom and each newer post is at the top. I don't know why Weebly has it this way, but oh well.
