    Jake: After the party, he'd run around playing tag with Abby for a while, then wondered around town watching people play and playing random games of chess, fishing, grilling the fish up for the people in the park, and basically just waiting until it was morning so he could call Paul. When he did he found out that Paul and Keli were at the gym, and had come right over, as he'd met Paul before, but not Keli. Of course, he did want Sunny to meet them as well, but he went first to meet them since he was right there, and of course, he wanted to make sure he wasn't running into something like Keli being a witch he didn't know about before he would bring Sunny into the matter.

    Jake: Hey, I got one!
    Why did the bodybuilder storm off from the italian bistro?

    Paul: Don't know, why did the bodybuilder storm off from the italian bistro?

    2irw4za.jpg
    Jake: He couldn't handle the wait! (Weight)

    scevz7.jpg

    Jake: He briefly met Keli downstairs on his way out. She seemed fun enough, and was not a witch, and no witch had altered her, though she was infused with fairy magic, from years of Paul and his magic.

    24cs7s9.jpg

    Jake: They seemed fun enough. Yes, he'd definitely be happy if they were in laws, but Sunny would be harder to convince.

    LunBeauty: Thanks. :D That's very helpful information. :D

    Lol- Rudy's having a blast while he's being scolded lol. Well, actually, Lola, we do pee in the house...in the bathroom...lol. :D Lola's casual look is quite pretty. :D The twins are adorable. :D I do see what you mean about Cadence's hair. Lol@Lola's weave comment. (Considering the whole thing with Cherry and her weave and all). :D Hadley does look a bit bonkers in that cooking picture! :D The twins look so cute playing with the blocks. :D (And what are these white useless things? Placemats!)

    Very nice Wedding. :D They look so good as bride and groom. :D Lol- it just figures the dating calls would start thirty seconds later...they were late in interrupting the wedding itself! :D What a lovely get away...yeah, I think that's a great use for Isla Paradiso, rather than as a starting location. :D It's lovely. :D That way you can visit the diving and so forth, and not have to live with the lag! :D

    Hey everyone, sorry to do this but there is going to be a slight change of plans. Rather than doing the story on Mackenzie and Alyson I have a different story I want to do (being my normal obnoxiously fickle self :? ). However it has some planning and set up I need to sort out first. In the meantime I am going to be starting a normal sims playthrough, basically I am going to play normally (something I haven't really done in ages) and will write the story along with what happens). The story will follow my new sim as she heads to college.

    So here she is

    kris.jpg

    Meet Kris Rose (full name Kristina)

    And she isn't just some random created sim. Many of you may recall my...

    *glances around nervously*

    okay whew she's not here at the moment. My violent tempered sim Celiria Rose. Well Kris is her daughter, and just as a side note if you think Celiria Rose can be mean normally you should see her hormonal :shock:

    Luckily for me, while Kris takes after her mother appearance wise she is very different personality wise. In contrast to her mothers exuberant shall we say personality Kris is more quiet. While not necessarily a loner she tends to avoid large groups and prefers to stick around people she knows rather than being upfront and socializing. She is very intelligent and was named valedictorian of her high school class. She's also tends to be clumsy.

    But she won't be going to college alone.

    friends1.jpg

    Since childhood Kris has been best friends with Gabby Dunn (full name Gabriella though she hates to be called it). But Gabby has changed a touch since they were children.


    gabby.jpg

    Personality wise Gabby is energetic and cheerful. She loves sports and loves to be doing something frequently dragging Kris along with her sometimes to Kris' dismay. Gabby also opposite of Kris is much more comfortable around other people and enjoys socializing and flirting.


    Also going along is Gabby's brother.

    Now many of you may have noticed my tendency to play female characters. Well I decided to rectify that slightly and give the ladies of the thread some eye candy for a change.


    ben.jpg

    Meet Ben Dunn. Similar personality wise to his fraternal twin sister he enjoys sports though he tends to be more reserved and down to earth when it comes to socializing. He has no issue being around others and socializing but he doesn't have the party mentality his sister does.

    So there are the sims I will be sending to university. Just to be clear I have no idea how long this will last but I intend to play it at least as long as I am planning out my next story (which anyone who remembers the gap between the end of my previous stories and the start of Black Rose can attest may take a while).

    Once again sorry to be fickle and change my mind like I do, I don't mean for it to happen it just kind of does.

    Hope everyone has been having a good weekend. And happy simming.

    Okay, guys, this is one of the rare times when I have a fair bit of time and am not wiped out, so I can update fairly close together...that being said this next update for Rafael is going to be a little picture heavy. (Well, for me, you know I usually range between 1 and 8 pictures.) There is a point to it being all included together, so please humor me.

    Baker: Wow, you have a whirlwind of travel and stress lined up. I wish you well! You too! :D

    Celiria: Sounds cool- I think it will be an interesting set up. I have yet to ever seend a sim to university, so all I've seen of it are from other's stories. (It's on my to do list...but it doesn't really fit anyone I've made, so probably in my next game). :D

    Ebony never thought she would see the day when her boyfriend Avery of three years finally popped the question!

    Screenshot-68-3.jpg

    They weren't all that keen on a traditional white wedding in a big church so they opted for their back garden with Ebony wearing a little black number.

    A slow dance.

    Screenshot-74-2.jpg

    Not long after the wedding, they found out they were expecting their first child.

    Screenshot-75-2.jpg

    And after a few months, baby Finley was born!

    Cuddles with daddy.

    So cute. They are now expecting their second child.

    Rafael: He had not expected this amount of failure. What was a thug doing acting like an acrobat anyway? Was this what he did with his spare time or was there some other reason for his entry? Was this the thug Mr. Ponce dealt with regularly, and therefore his participation in this contest made the idea that another thug would be along to do business instead plausible? Or was there a group of criminals in here somewhere that was waiting to talk to him, who would confront Rafael for moving in on their turf? He really wanted to find them first, it was more professional.

    2djdumx.jpg

    Rafael: Rafael couldn't help but smirk as the man failed in trick after trick. He half wondered if the man was failing on purpose as comedy or as a distraction while someone was robbing the place. He looked back at the women he suspected might be involved, but the cook had left.

    2lusahg.jpg

    Rafael: The acrobat was looking highly amused, however. He couldn't decide whether it looked like she felt amused he failed or was happy that he was pulling off the plan, whatever it was. He looked to see but no one was robbing the place or sneaking back somewhere while no one was looking.

    2elh9cp.jpg

    Rafael: He dropped one of the knives. Rafael half expected the others to go flying towards the audience in precision that no one would expect from an 'acrobat' that couldn't juggle them. But none did.

    zimuip.jpg

    Rafael: When juggling the torches, one of them hit him in the head. There was something strange about it, he couldn't figure out if the man was really good at faking it or was genuinely failing. He suspected the acrobat lady was in on it, whatever it was...either she was happy he was doing a bad job because that would make her performance appear better, or she was happy he was distracting the audience, but he was doing badly and she seemed to be loving it.

    a4ci.jpg

    Rafael: He managed to do one flip off a ball at the end of the performance.

    syxyrb.jpg

    Rafael: He was hoping this was the end of the show, but of course it wasn't, just the thug's part of the show.

    2jbo1p2.jpg

    Rafael: There was also a throaty singer who wasn't half bad.

    25ti4ow.jpg

    Rafael: Then there was an acrobat/mime act that was very well done, the acrobat only fell on one trick in the whole show.

    scbe4n.jpg

    Rafael: Rafael decided he was going to talk to the thug after the show instead of Mr. Ponce. Yes, it was dangerous, but at the moment, the most dangerous thing he could do was give them time to decide he was a threat without him having made his intentions clear.

    xqdl3.jpg

    Rafael: But the show was wrapping up, and the female acrobat was not performing. Was this the thug's boss? Or was she just too sick to perform so she had him stand in?

    fjkh8x.jpg

    Ramiro Ponce: And the winner is....

    n650zl.jpg

    Ramiro Ponce: ...Peter Svalanovich! You have won, and don't forget your name will be in the papers tomorrow!

    1zd6kqw.jpg

    Rafael: For a moment, before he saw the man's face, he thought they'd thrown it- that the criminals had won the contest not by skill but by a 'he'll win or else' talk with Mr. Ponce. Then he saw the winners's fake smile.

    He laughed to himself. The sound of the applause covered it, of course. There weren't a lot of people, but the people here were loud, as some of them were quite juiced. Rafael knew pained smiles. That man was smiling to cover humiliation- because for whatever reason, he was being forced to humiliate himself. Rafael both felt sorry for him, and felt he deserved it, and felt relief that 'at least it happens to someone else besides me' all at the same time. If he was going to die tonight, at least he had a good time. On the other hand, if things worked in his favor this man might end up being a co worker, so it would probably be a good idea not to antagonize him too much.

    2wqdhy0.jpg

    Rafael: "Nyice show, Tigyer. Vhy arre you beink forrced to do this?"

    Count Snypes: "I'm being disciplined."

    Rafael: "Nothink to do vith me, I hope." Only because that would likely lead to a grudge. Grudges among coworkers lead to many unpleasant run ins with the law or death as they waited for the perfect time to betray you.

    Count Snypes: "You told Mr. Ponce you'd talk to him after the show. He's out front now."

    Rafael: He'd said that as if Mr. Ponce was the boss, but he'd specifically tailored the response to give that impression without saying so. Hmm. Interesting. He had a feeling he'd be talking to the sickly acrobat soon, but he might as well give them their game first.

    Zabeth0-Great update!This looks like it could be dangerous.
    Here's my update on Glen harbor.
    Here's my pool I uploaded to the Exchange earlier being altered for my own game use.I added CC baby swings,baby beds,toddler beds,playpens,baby mats and changing tables to the lot as well as a few starter fridges upstairs which are also CC.I saved it to my library and exported it as a back up for my own use.
    14485662184_0c0394e67c.jpg
    Here's where the CC fridges went.

    I also added the beehives from Supernatural in the back.
    14300306640_f55bb26b40.jpg
    Here's the outside view of the lot showing the rooftop and it still looks like the shared version which is also the CC-free one.

    Zabeth0- Yeah, she's good like that. Thanks. Yep gotta love those freckles :mrgreen: Hope fully he won't be a clone but I'm not very hopeful. I still love him though.

    I wonder what Peter Svalanovich's deal is, it will be interesting to see what Rafael does.

    MayaRose1138- Thankyou. Yep you read that correctly, he has black hair like his grandfather.

    That house is so colourful and fun. I like the theatre and living rooms :D

    LunBeauty- Yeah you were lucky. Aw thanks heaps :mrgreen:

    KatieTerrorFace- Thankyou :D Yeah I like it too.

    Amj1995- Thankyou :mrgreen:

    Prada is cute. Great shot of the teens before prom.

    FluorescentSoap- Your sims are so unique, I really like them.

    @lunbeauty: Grats to Nathan & Hadley on the wedding. Their trip after seemed great! ^^

    Loved your updates! I really enjoy watching SimFests and should definitely implement more performance Sims into my towns so I get to see them (I dislike EA has it in a way where proprietors still announce Sim Fests even though there's no one to perform in them!). ^^

    That feeling where you just want to repeatedly smash your face into your desk in frustration and anger... I have that feeling right now :evil:
    Every time, every **** time I make a preview of sims I am looking forward to playing something goes wrong, you would think I would learn but I never seem to, so I **** post a preview and of course something goes wrong. In this case my computer won't turn on, at all. I push the button it lights up the screen comes on shows the windows logo and then the button light blinks and the computer shuts off. It's not a battery issue as the laptop is plugged in. And I have no clue what could be **** wrong with it. How do I always get so many **** computer issues.

    If you haven't noticed I am a touch angry right now :evil:

    Just wanted to let people know why I will be vanishing again for a bit and can't do comments (this post is from my tablet and I'm sorry but I'm not doing comments with a touch screen).

    Hope everyone has a nice day.

    Sorry about the previous font size! didn't realise it was that small, my monitor is pretty big so it kinda magnifies text.

    @and-it-is-on thank you! :D I try my best lol

    @Celiria :cry: that sucks, I know once my power button broke on my PC, had to take it to techs.

    @AiHaou Your pics are so cute! how did you get the baby with legs though?

    @Amj1995 Thank you! :DD Raahi is a makeover I did of one of my old sims. Charlie is from my legacy family. Aw thanks, I mix and matched using CC and EA content.

    @Zabeth0 Hah, I didn't notice that when I took them XD I just couldn't find a pose to match Raahi were he wasn't constantly grinning. looked kinda weird.

    @LunBeauty Thank you!!! :D

    @TadOlson Thanks :mrgreen:

    Ramiro Ponce: "Hey, man, how you doin'? Name's Ramiro Ponce, I run this joint, what'll you have, juice? Only five simoleans a glass?"

    Rafael: "I vould like to talk to you, Mrrr. Ponce...about yourr businyess."

    Ramiro: "Ah. Those kinds of talk, ain't got time for right now. Maybe after the show. I gotta sell drinks if I can afford that kind of talk."

    Rafael: "Verrry vell, aftyer the show, then." This conversation, as short as it was told him two things; one, Mr. Ponce dealt with thugs, and could recognize the body language and tone instantly, and two, he wasn't in charge of them- he was the lower one on the ladder when dealing with thugs. On the surface, he might seem to be the one in power by rescheduling when this talk took place, but the ones in power didn't need to reschedule, they could end a talk like that in all of a minute, and they didn't have to worry about affording it.

    2im6jao.jpg

    Rafael: He looked over at the others watching the performance. He was really watching Mr. Ponce out of the corner of his eye, he was waiting for the man to pull out a cell phone, but he didn't. He seemed to just accept the idea that a thug had come and seen him out of the blue. Either that, or the person he would want to ask about it was close enough to not bother with cell phones. But there was hardly anyone here.

    2gy2aug.jpg

    Rafael: The closest woman to him looked like some form of chef, she had a soft sort of smile that at first glance looked disappointed. There was nothing menacing in her manner at all. She looked tired and a little dazed. He could see sweat had dried on her neckline, it wasn't just a costume, she'd been working in those clothes recently, and perhaps had stopped in for a break.

    2w7lr9z.jpg

    Rafael: The further woman looked like an acrobat, with a red eye-catching costume that wasn't dirty, and had no sweat anywhere on it, so he guessed she would be performing tonight. Though she looked a bit sickly, and had a lot more dignity to her than he'd expect anyone wearing that. He suspected she as an older woman perhaps in her thirties or forties, by no means a grandma, but her bearing was that of his grandmother's generation.

    mip1zc.jpg

    Rafael: But there was an upper floor, as there were railings he could see up there, so perhaps whoever he would be looking for would be found up there. He was about to go up there and look when he suddenly looked at the stage as Mr. Ponce annouced the next contestant, 'Peter Svalanovich'. The ridiculous tiger make up didn't fool Rafael, this was the same thug that had been waiting across the street from his 'cursed house' only yesterday.

    Well seems Rafael is on the right track as if his business was just running the bar he wouldn't have said what he did about those kind of talks. Rafael is a good judge of character and can see through people yet I find it funny he can't see about supernaturals, of course Rafael is one of those people he has to see to believe. Rafael it is obvious knows his way around the criminal element.

    Oh wow a twist. The man who was watching his house is performing at the club. I wonder if he knew Rafael was going to be there somehow and this is some way of trying to contact him or a subtle threat.

    Great update.

    Okay, so I have just about finished the remodel (it wasn't until I was taking pictures that I realised that I had forgotten about decorating the ceilings. I'll have to figure that out in the next few days. Some of the floors need redoing too.

    Thank you to ddsims3world for creating such a useful building; it's been a challenge redecorating it for a family to live in :)

    I'll do the overview first, and then some close-ups. Not all the pics uploaded so there will be some gaps in the overview.

    screenshot_original.jpg
    The entryway and kitchen, with Athena's room to the left. I took out the half-walls and put full walls in to create a kitchen space.

    screenshot_original.jpg
    Athena's room (the yellow one) with the bathroom next to it. The main area between the two sets of rooms acts as a study area for each group of kids.

    screenshot_original.jpg
    Blossom's room (purple) and Charity's room (blue)

    The front right-hand side is missing but it has a study and bathroom. There is also a workshop that I have added on to the side of the house which has the sculpting area, alchemy table, potion table and inventing workbench.

    screenshot_original.jpg
    The boys' bedrooms. I haven't decided which one Hawk will be in yet.
    Also, a second study area. You can see the dining room off to the left; the pic for it didn't upload either.

    screenshot_original.jpg
    Upstairs, left-hand side front. Ivory's bedroom and a bathroom, with common study area.

    screenshot_original.jpg
    Left-hand back. Freya and 🐸🐸🐸🐸's room (pink), Daisy's and Easter's room (green)

    screenshot_original.jpg
    Above the entryway. Small theatre room for the kids.

    screenshot_original.jpg
    Living room (which I'm still organising).

    screenshot_original.jpg
    Upstairs, right-hand side, front. Autumn's bedroom and exercise room. The common area is going to be used as a playroom for toddlers.

    screenshot_original.jpg
    Right-hand side, back. Nursery and Autumn's bathroom.

    I didn't take any pictures of the outside because it's the middle of winter and everything is buried :)

    Here are some close-ups:
    Entry:

    Athena's room:

    Kids' bathroom:

    Autumn's bedroom: (don't ask me why Charity is reading in here!)
    screenshot_original.jpg

    Girl's study area:
    screenshot_original.jpg

    Workshop: (or part thereof, with Blossom studying intently)
    screenshot_original.jpg

    Study: (with Athena and Autumn painting)
    screenshot_original.jpg

    Daisy's and Easter's room: (which needs new carpet to make it less bright :))
    screenshot_original.jpg

    Boys' study area: (with Easter)
    screenshot_original.jpg

    Freya and 🐸🐸🐸🐸's room:
    screenshot_original.jpg

    Ivory's room: (which isn't quite finished either)
    screenshot_original.jpg

    Having a look at the pics makes me realise that I forgot to change the floor type before doing the redecorating. Looks like I'll have to that too then! Better check the walls as well while I'm at it.

    I've had a wonderful time redecorating the house this weekend, and I've barely had any actual game time :) I hope this is okay that I have done this; it isn't an offence to redo someone's lot, is it? I have no plans to upload this to the Exchange since the original design is not my work.


    I really like the purple room well I am a purple freak after all lol.

    That red table with multi colored chairs is awesome.

    What a good idea a theater for kids. Way to keep them occupied lol.

    What an elegant entry. Those colors work so well together. I wish my real life living room looked so good lol.

    That flowered wall is neat. I like Athena's room. You have a good eye for color combinations.

    How do your sim kids rate? That big bathroom. My bathroom in rl half the size lol.

    Autumn reading in there as she thinks red is a brainy color and feels comfortable there lol.

    Good idea to have a play oven in the study room so they can get a snack whenever they want lol.

    That carpet sure is eye bending and bright for sure, but it fits the room beautifully.

    Awww that hello kitty room is precious I think I would love a room like that lol.

    That tree bookshelf in the bedroom looks awesome. It seems to make the room more nature like.

    It looks like you had fun redecorating and did a great job.

    Pax: "You don't gotta call me 'Uncle.' It sounds weird! So you wanna build this snowman or not?"

    It's Prada's birthday!

    You can barely tell she aged.

    I don't understand why everyone always wants to bathe Makki. She's not even smelly! Kostas got the wrath of her frustration.

    Kostas: "Who wanted a freakin cat!?"

    Kostas gave Keyan his stuffed bear that he had when he was a child.

    Kostas: "This was my bear that my dad gave me. It helped me feel safe during the scary nights. And when you have a child you can give it them."
    <img src="https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5034/14330014172_9737ac904b_c.jpg&quot; width="800" height="452" alt="Screenshot-189"></a>

    Keyan: "I will take good care of it dad!"

    It was prom night for Kinerly. She went with her date, Robbie Pineda, her friends, Latoya Armstrong and Robbie's sister, Valeri Pineda.
    <img src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3908/14145130200_e3aeb60a78_c.jpg&quot; width="800" height="452" alt="Screenshot-187"></a>

    On the way to prom. I don't know where Latoya went.

    She had a nice night. She was crowned prom queen. She and Robert started dating and had a slow dance together.

    I love Prada. She is so cute. I go "daw" every time I see her.

    Typical kids say whatever comes to mind and to the other kid although it might offend an adult, the kid is like thanks that is the nicest thing you ever said to me lol.

    Yeah calling a kid a little older than you uncle does sound weird lol.

    I would howl too if I was aging into an elder lol.

    Maybe it is because Makki is such a challenge to bathe.

    You should know Kostas cats hate water.

    I love when parents pass things down that meant something to them to the kids.

    He loves it already.

    Good looking group of kids there.

    Great update.

    @Puddinroy, Pretty neat looking sim there since he is certainly looking good in purple.

    @Celiria, Thanks for the comment!

    @LunBeauty, Your welcome & thanks for the comments! Great update & Rudy looks like a cute dog & same goes for Jinx!

    @IreneSwift, Hmm...I would be wary of having to use that cheat if it means to draw down sims funds. Thats would be helpful for sure though when I do need it. Thanks for the comments! I made my sims earn hard w/o the use of cheats since they would spend time at University to get some cash as well earn a degree. Plus their job would be very crucial as well add in celebrity perks if they are popular. I would say that if they were to earn money through cheats kinda defeats the purpose which I stop doing that long time ago.

    @TadOlson, Your welcome & thanks for the comment! Very nice pics of your pool lot! I should consider making another pool lot!

    @and-it-is-on, Thanks for the comment! Very nice update!

    Hudson Update:

    14481369381_c91faf36d6_z.jpg

    Geez lady that's quite the perfect spot to do dumpster diving right at the junkyard.

    Then of course to break down doors w/ an ax!

    14481365751_29a0199559_z.jpg

    Also making sure sims get out of the scene!

    14483493242_9c53e84046_z.jpg

    14298113650_e8e7d21285_z.jpg

    Tyrone needed to head to the city hall to receive an award for saving sims. While still dress in firefighter outfit.

    14298311427_9048113394_z.jpg

    As well on the chopper in same fashion.

    14298112810_d55d2a5167_z.jpg

    There is the trophy sitting on the floor.

    14298310697_81062ec14d_z.jpg

    Oh look a genie lamp for the first time.

    14484740145_8307eb0270_z.jpg

    Time to rub the lamp to get the genie out!

    14504868673_ee373329f1_z.jpg

    14483510264_bb6a033aaa_z.jpg

    Then there is the genie & it's a guy.

    14461637096_28bf21fe39_z.jpg

    Tyrone first wish is to get money.

    14298161928_366fe0d7cb_z.jpg

    Well the genie is getting ready to make the wish comes true.

    14481361161_def17b2330_z.jpg

    Would this freak you out?

    14461635816_10bedd0313_z.jpg

    14298122289_3c50af662c_z.jpg

    His wish came true to get 100k which is a whole lot better than Inheritance LTR.

    14483484972_c499815cb6_z.jpg

    The genie would go back to the lamp shortly after.

    14461631266_50b7e923b4_z.jpg

    Tyrone was having issues w/ the washing machine making quite a bit of racket.

    14483484162_fb245f25f2_z.jpg

    Which he would try to suppress it!

    14298160198_df1bd55abe_z.jpg

    Well he did it & won the battle unlike Bob.

    14298306797_cf1019d6fc_z.jpg

    The washing machine still made noise.

    14483507134_c09be956c4_z.jpg

    it was time for Tyrone to move out!

    14504864463_2786ed138b_z.jpg

    14504864033_4f6bf91e93_z.jpg

    To that house in front of him! He will stay there until he gets to be in a different house.

    14484734815_bfe6b61d1d_z.jpg

    The first thing he did while being inside is to make the stove prepare better quality.

    14298105800_50aa63115e_z.jpg

    Well the burglar didn't waste anytime showing up for the first time in the game + plus in the new home. As well lost to the cop no less.

    All I can do is roll my eyes at the first pic lol.

    Might as well go through the junk piles it would probably be less stinky lol.

    Hudson good job on making those baskets.

    I not a soccer fan, but the computer game is fun I imagine.

    Some moves you have there Hudson.

    Yep back to work. I love that they let the firefighters use an axe to break down the doors.

    Well if sims would stop freaking out and just walk to the door lol.

    Nice trophy.

    He got a genie lamp hooray. I forget outside of ltr how do you get it?

    A genie hooray.

    I am freaked out just looking at the pic. lol

    What is Hudson is going to do with all those simoleans?

    I see what he did with the money now. That is a nice house.

    My burglars always win it seems.

    Zabeth0: Cute update. I love Jake's quirkiness. :) Thanks for the comments as well. :D Sims are so rude, calling thirty seconds after someone gets married to ask them out on a date. They really have no morals. I'm surprised you remember about Cherry's weave, lol. I miss Cherry. :( She was such a beautiful sim and really had it rough. I think those white things are pieces of paper. I believe children sims can practice drawing on them. Don't quote me on that though. The wedding didn't go as planned. See, I have some wedding poses that I wanted to use such as the father walking the daughter down the aisle, the throwing of the bouquet, etc. But for some reason, the photoshooting add-on mod that I have for my poses wasn't working, and then most of the family except for Olivia left before the wedding even started. So I just had to make do with what I had. Isla Pardiso is just a huge lagfest. I agree that it's good for a vacation spot, but not to live in. I couldn't deal with the bad routing and lag on a regular basis.

    Celiria: I like the looks of this. :) I really hope you go through with this story.

    simlish1: Very nice update! :D

    Zabeth0: Sometimes I think these simfests are fixed because the worst person always wins. But nice update. :)

    TadOlson: Great update!

    and-it-is-on: Thanks for the comments. :)

    AiHaou: Nice update! :D

    KatieTerrorFace: Thanks for the comments. :D

    Celiria: I'm so sorry that you're having troubles right now. It does seem like each time you get excited for a new story, something bad always happens. I hope you get everything sorted out soon. :(

    Colorist40: I'm really not trying to be rude, so if I am, I'm sorry. But I was wondering if you're skipping over my updates, or if you just haven't gotten to them yet because I've posted a few that you haven't commented to. So I'm just wondering if you're doing it on purpose or if it's accidentally. :)

    A lot happened in this update. It'll probably be the longest update I've ever posted.
    The twins grew into toddlers and are quite the handful. They're cute though, so we can forgive them. :)
    Harmony had her baby, which is a girl named Tomika. Not the name I would have chosen, but Harmony has always been a bit eccentric.
    Hadley and Nathan get married. The wedding doesn't really go how I planned it, but it still went fairly well.
    Hadley and Nathan went on vacation to Isla Paradiso.
    More stuff happened, which I can't really remember without looking at the pictures. So...here they are!

    ediBXUG.jpg
    It's the day of the twins birthday. Lola is forced to get up early in order to scold Rudy for peeing in the house.
    Lola: Bad dog! Very bad! We don't pee in the house!
    (As you can tell, I'm sure you noticed it in the last update, I gave Lola a make-over. She has a bit of a casual laidback look with a simple off-one shoulder t-shirt and some cute base game capris with flats from University life. I wanted something she could wear all the time and still be comfortable in.)

    9mNP9Gl.jpg
    Harmony shows up for the party with a plate full of grilled cheese and her belly out to Hong Kong. I was surprised when she didn't have the baby at the party. I was also surprised when she didn't have twins or triplets. Just look how big she is. Lola didn't get that big.

    SNlOEQM.jpg
    Harmony: Ooh, it kicked. You know, this pregancy stuff isn't so bad.
    Olivia: Hmph...you say that now, but just wait until you start going into labor.
    Harmony: Oh...I'm sure it's not as painful as people say.
    Olivia: Hon, you forget, I did this five times. There are certain parts of my body that will never be the same.

    PcroZPK.jpg
    Since Tristan is the oldest by about seven minutes, he is brought down first.

    c3EL3I7.jpg
    Harmony and Ethan chat it up, practically ignoring the fact that their nephew is about to turn a year old.
    Olivia: Oh, dear God, that dog smells horrid. When was the last time they gave it a bath?

    BtBTnng.jpg
    Just out of nowhere, Harmony and Ethan start to slow dance. Olivia forgets about the foul smelling poochie and admires the cute couple.

    uSP3jHP.jpg
    Hadley: Hello in there! Hello!
    Harmony: So, I bet you can't wait to have a few.
    Hadley: No, I can't. But it'll be a good while.
    Harmony: You'd better hurry up. You won't be young forever.

    nxITWlu.jpg
    After the guests ate some cake and mingled a bit, it was time for Cadence to turn one next.
    Harmony: Hadley, hon, I love you and all. But could you please get your face out of my tatas?

    DcMWgte.jpg
    zDipdVf.jpg
    Everyone agrees that Cadence and Tristan are as cute as can be. (Also, see what I mean about the hair? Cadence's hair is all glitchy looking, but in CAS it looks fine. I'm going to spend the next few days weeding out some of my CC hair.)

    LVKU0Sn.jpg
    Cadence immediately is about to **** her pants, so she is taken to the potty chair. There's no time like the present to be potty trained.

    tHhazU5.jpg
    After a long day, the twins are put to bed.
    Lola: Sleep tight, my little man.
    Tristan: *Tugs lightly on Lola's red locks.
    Lola: No no, don't pull Mommy's hair. Mommy doesn't want to go bald and have to get a weave.

    5nsHnEi.jpg
    After the twins are settled, Lola and Jake go skinny dipping.

    fWcrabN.jpg
    Lola sits at her desk in her room playing one of her many app games. She's probably playing something like Candy Crush.

    ThvMdNh.jpg
    The twins are fed mushed up waffles. They'll be eating the same thing the family eats.

    o0THMsW.jpg
    There is no time like the present to start learning how to talk. :)

    K7XDloW.jpg
    Hadley finds that having twins in the house keeps her busy.
    Hadley: Ugh, how can one little girl make such a big mess?

    vEMW7d7.jpg
    She keeps herself sane by being the designated cook for the family.

    yya0YQy.jpg
    Tristan hates being left in his crib for too long after he wakes up and lets the whole world know that he wants to be let out.

    CDaBuvV.jpg
    Lola: There you go, little man.
    Tristan: *Thinking* Yay! Something I can smear all over my face!

    NsCqqM4.jpg
    Hadley: I'm gonna getcha! I'm gonna getcha!
    Tristan: *Giggles uncontrollably.

    mXnW3bs.jpg
    Cadence: *Bangs her tiny fists against the tray* Cereal! I want cereal!

    TSOCnew.jpg
    There are quiet times when they do play together and are quite content, like right here.

    32LqNcQ.jpg
    Nathan usually gets home by the time the rest of the adults go to work, so he is stuck sitting for them most of the time. He doesn't really mind though, especially if they're quiet.

    DWOJCEf.jpg
    3v1Spuq.jpg
    All Nathan has to do is put down a few toys for them and they're as happy as can be. Until they get hungry or need a diaper change that is.

    Z5BIege.jpg
    Lola is eager to get her children potty trained. She has grown tired of changing diapers.
    Lola: Okay, my big strong little man, it's time for you to learn how to potty like a big boy.
    Tristan: I big boy!
    Lola: Yes, you are!

    0wuYtNs.jpg
    I don't have anything creative to say here. I just thought it was cute. :)

    cy9nrL1.jpg
    T7UIF1Q.jpg
    Hadley: *Sigh* Oh, Tristan. What are we going to do with you?
    Tristan: *Looks up at Hadley and giggles innocently*
    Hadley: Come on, up you get.
    Lola: It's Jake's turn to clean that up. I swear, he always does that.

    QF3bO4s.jpg
    Jake: *Grumbling to himself* How one little boy can make such a big mess is beyond me.
    Cadence: *Begins pushing her bowl closer to the edge.
    Jake: Don't even think about it, young lady.
    Cadence: *Looks up at her dad innocently and blinks her big blue-green eyes* Who, me?

    so6ZKP0.jpg
    Poor Nathan is often caught cleaning up the twins messes, especially when their potty ends up overflowing.
    Nathan: You would think the parents would learn to clean up a little more. This is ridiculous.

    T2FvuEg.jpg
    Being a bit of a handyman, he is also chosen to fix broken appliances around the house.

    AoTWWTJ.jpg
    It's very surprising that Jake and Lola still have time for romance in their lives, especially with the twins taking up nearly all of their time.
    The next pictures are of Nathan and Hadley's wedding.

    txBelI8.jpg
    Hadley: So, we finally made it up here. *Smiles softly*
    Nathan: Yes, we did. It was a long time in coming, but we're finally here. I hope you're not getting cold feet.
    Hadley: Sorry, babe. But you're stuck with me for life.

    R7bXkr7.jpg
    Lola: Aww, isn't that sweet? But will you two please get on with the wedding? I want some of that cake in the next room.

    mOkhFON.jpg
    Everyone else is much more polite. Then again, they've all eaten. Lola did not get to eat this morning. She was busy feeding the twins and cleaning up after them.

    8MYHTHB.jpg
    tX3jtUd.jpg
    569HpKs.jpg
    CIr64Ib.jpg
    Nathan: I promise to love, honor, and cherish you for the rest of my days
    Hadley: I also promise to love, honor, and cherish you.
    Jake: Oh, that's so beautiful. *Begins to bawl quite loudly*
    Lola: Oh, for God's sake, Jake. Can someone get him something to calm him down? A horse tranquilizer would be nice.

    vKhocBW.jpg
    zXfwKCW.jpg
    Despite Lola's contempt for her husband's bawling like a big baby, she is still happy for her sister in law and her new husband.

    qNvG4Gr.jpg
    It's soon time to cut the cake. Almost thirty seconds after Nathan and Hadley got married, people kept calling them asking them out on dates. Rude, much!

    Despite the wedding not going how I wanted it to, it was still a beautiful wedding and I can't wait for the next one. :)

    EAwG9HF.jpg
    Harmony is just so pretty. :)

    oxI6FnT.jpg
    The next afternoon, Hadley and Nathan arrive at their small beachhouse in Isla Paradiso. They'll be taking a five day vacation there.

    Cg11VDi.jpg
    Nathan: So, are you happy? *Wraps his arms around Hadley as she stares out at the ocean*
    Hadley: Mmm, very happy. It's so nice and quiet without the twins.
    Nathan: Mmhm, tell me about it. I hope these five days go by slow because I don't think I'll want to go home.
    Here's a small montage of their vacation. :)

    That's it for now! I hope you all enjoy. :D

    Tomika is a cute name. I really like it. I might name one of my sim girls that.

    Lola wanted to contribute to the wedding :lol:

    Maybe her cravings were part of the reason her stomach was so big.

    Almost makes you want Harmony to scream until her eyeballs pop out of her head lol.

    Your nephew is growing up and all you can do is chat together. Olivia can only comment on the stinky dog? lol

    Cadence another nice name.

    You funny get your face out of my tatas lol.

    Awww Cadence sitting on the potty is just adorbs.

    They are too cute. I can't believe your sims never have ugly babies lol.

    Tristan is like hmmm mushed up waffles? Not sure I like these. I want those square things on mommy's plate.

    Hadley is like I can do this without looking. This is too easy lol.

    You can have anything you want Cadence.

    Watch out when they are quiet you better turn off that tv and get checking on them.

    I would leave the house just the way it is lol. Let the parents clean it up.

    The only reason they have time is because Nathan is always babysitting and being a free maid and handyman.

    Where is that wedding dress from. It is stunning.

    That wedding venue is over the top and romantic. Did you make that yourself?

    Lola you too funny. Ha ha ha. Wanting the cake? You had the twins it was your fault you had to go to the wedding hungry lol.

    Jake crying is funny and Lola's reaction is :lol::lol::lol: I don't think a horse tranquilizer would do it.

    Well they just want to make sure they are in this marriage for the long haul :lol::lol::lol:

    That is a great plan to go to isla paradiso for the honey moon.

    Jake: After the party, he'd run around playing tag with Abby for a while, then wondered around town watching people play and playing random games of chess, fishing, grilling the fish up for the people in the park, and basically just waiting until it was morning so he could call Paul. When he did he found out that Paul and Keli were at the gym, and had come right over, as he'd met Paul before, but not Keli. Of course, he did want Sunny to meet them as well, but he went first to meet them since he was right there, and of course, he wanted to make sure he wasn't running into something like Keli being a witch he didn't know about before he would bring Sunny into the matter.

    29b2i6e.jpg

    Jake: Hey, I got one!
    Why did the bodybuilder storm off from the italian bistro?

    2nqqhys.jpg

    Paul: Don't know, why did the bodybuilder storm off from the italian bistro?

    2irw4za.jpg
    Jake: He couldn't handle the wait! (Weight)

    scevz7.jpg

    Jake: He briefly met Keli downstairs on his way out. She seemed fun enough, and was not a witch, and no witch had altered her, though she was infused with fairy magic, from years of Paul and his magic.

    24cs7s9.jpg

    Jake: They seemed fun enough. Yes, he'd definitely be happy if they were in laws, but Sunny would be harder to convince.

    That Jake is a card. He is funny lol. Jake is very protective of his children and knows what would be good for his son. Sunny should trust Jake's opinion even though they are fairies, they aren't witches. You can have good and bad in any race of people. Jake has years to hone his ability to read people and I think Sunny should realize this.

    Can't wait to see how this turns out.

    @Celiria: Aww. Hope your situation improves. :[


    Update:

    Marina was closing up George's Tavern when she found one of the townies' kids still there. "You should head home, we're closing!" "But... Ghosts!" Marina comforted him and told him the ghost hunters in town will take care of the situation.

    TcXcaTM.jpg

    Marina had been working hard at the workbench on her time. Despite how much Marc and friends liked her gizmos, she really wanted to invent something much more useful.

    luFCbOV.jpg

    "You've already done so much, Marina. You don't have to work this hard." Marc told her.

    Marina was really stubborn though.

    "I can... I can keep going!"

    tToJILd.jpg

    When Marc came home from teaching a handiness skill lesson at a local school, he found Marina asleep in the workshop. "Oh Marina, you really need a break!"

    Hours later!

    Marina awoke in the co-pilot seat of what appeared to be a small jet in a pilot's outfit. "Morning!" She panicked as she had no idea to fly and saw Marc playing around with buttons on the jet's dashboard. "DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW TO FLY?!?!?!?" "Nope. But we're almost there!"

    Marina looked out the window. "WHAT?!"

    1fKI2ei.jpg

    Upon landing in one of the farmers' fields, the couple got out and began planning the rest of their trip. Marina was still in disbelief at where they were and how they got there.

    Great, Champs les Sims! But the wi-fi here is... non-existent. Marc sensed his wife stressing out and calmed her down. "I called the video game firm and all our friends. We're here for nine days. Relax!" He gave her a kiss and hugged her amorously.

    First on their agenda after settling into the base camp was to visit the local art museum. Marina, seeing how crazily Marc flew the plane, insisted on driving.

    cHqzn4g.jpg

    "I painted something that looked just like that before, remember?"

    FUfy3Uy.jpg

    The two had fun going through what the museum had to offer. Things got quite romantic in the Asian section of the galleries, as it reminded them of their honeymoon in Shang Simla.

    Marina got a bit lost when looking for a restroom to fix up her makeup.

    Hmmm, I got a feeling I may have taken a wrong turn...
    KMgM6jd.jpg

    She ended up going on a nifty little adventure in the tunnels underneath the museum, ending up with some nice relics and whatnot.

    yRcTtJS.jpg

    Marc was still browsing when she met up with him again. "I just made a wrong turn, haha."

    When they were done browsing, it was already dark out. Marc drove this time but the GPS went berserk and the two ended up at what appeared to be a very large, but old home. "Chateau du Landgraab," Marina read off the sign at the entrance. "I wonder if anyone is inside?"

    nG8JHNQ.jpg

    Generations ago, Marina's ancestors, the Goldleafs had also lived in Champs les Sims. They had played a role in helping the peasants during the Great Famine years, inviting the struggling Sims into their home, Champs les Sims Castle. During this period, the Landgraabs had amassed their wealth and food supplies to themselves, and a rivalry between the two families was born and lasted for several generations until it ended in Sunset Valley.

    Marc noticed there was a trap at the entrance, but Marina disarmed it by pressing a button in a whole under a lamp nearby. "Why are you putting your hand in random holes, Marina?"

    When Marc attempted to knock on the door, it simply opened. "Hello, anyone here?" Only echoes of his greet followed. The pair explored the abandoned chateau, but many traps and doors needing keystones kept their exploration limited.

    At least the bathroom didn't have a trap!
    sgWY2yP.jpg

    Fortunately, Marc and Marina were only looking for a palce to sleep and found one of the lavishly adorned bedrooms.

    QNITZNV.jpg

    The next morning, they ate some fruit Marc had in his bag and got ready to leave. But Marina heard a rumbling noises from elsewhere in the large home. The two carefully sought the source of the noise.

    e9HucyR.jpg

    "Hmmm, the Landgraabs must have been making their own nectar down here for centuries!" exclaimed Marina. Marc was disappointed that there wasn't any nectar bottles laying around for him to taste.

    Apparently one of the watering system's pipes in the ceiling broke and had drenched the floor. So Marina decided to use her Harvester to gather up the harvestables so the soaked ground wouldn't ruin them (While Marc fooled around in front of the fireplace).

    WJnXhY9.jpg

    But Marc was in luck, as the nectar making machine was still functional. Marina messed around with a few of the buttons and added some of the picked grapes. Voila!

    The couple then decided to head back to town and make preparations for the day coming ahead. ^^

    Hey everyone, sorry to do this but there is going to be a slight change of plans. Rather than doing the story on Mackenzie and Alyson I have a different story I want to do (being my normal obnoxiously fickle self :? ). However it has some planning and set up I need to sort out first. In the meantime I am going to be starting a normal sims playthrough, basically I am going to play normally (something I haven't really done in ages) and will write the story along with what happens). The story will follow my new sim as she heads to college.

    So here she is

    kris.jpg

    Meet Kris Rose (full name Kristina)

    And she isn't just some random created sim. Many of you may recall my...

    *glances around nervously*

    okay whew she's not here at the moment. My violent tempered sim Celiria Rose. Well Kris is her daughter, and just as a side note if you think Celiria Rose can be mean normally you should see her hormonal :shock:

    Luckily for me, while Kris takes after her mother appearance wise she is very different personality wise. In contrast to her mothers exuberant shall we say personality Kris is more quiet. While not necessarily a loner she tends to avoid large groups and prefers to stick around people she knows rather than being upfront and socializing. She is very intelligent and was named valedictorian of her high school class. She's also tends to be clumsy.

    But she won't be going to college alone.

    friends1.jpg

    Since childhood Kris has been best friends with Gabby Dunn (full name Gabriella though she hates to be called it). But Gabby has changed a touch since they were children.


    gabby.jpg

    Personality wise Gabby is energetic and cheerful. She loves sports and loves to be doing something frequently dragging Kris along with her sometimes to Kris' dismay. Gabby also opposite of Kris is much more comfortable around other people and enjoys socializing and flirting.


    Also going along is Gabby's brother.

    Now many of you may have noticed my tendency to play female characters. Well I decided to rectify that slightly and give the ladies of the thread some eye candy for a change.


    ben.jpg

    Meet Ben Dunn. Similar personality wise to his fraternal twin sister he enjoys sports though he tends to be more reserved and down to earth when it comes to socializing. He has no issue being around others and socializing but he doesn't have the party mentality his sister does.

    So there are the sims I will be sending to university. Just to be clear I have no idea how long this will last but I intend to play it at least as long as I am planning out my next story (which anyone who remembers the gap between the end of my previous stories and the start of Black Rose can attest may take a while).

    Once again sorry to be fickle and change my mind like I do, I don't mean for it to happen it just kind of does.

    Hope everyone has been having a good weekend. And happy simming.

    Someone bred with Celiria Rose? Hmm dangerous at best lol. Well her daughter is cute, but glad she doesn't take after her mother. You know I shudder to think how her childhood had to have been. Celiria Rose I am sure was disappointed to have such a quiet good girl for a daughter.

    They do say opposites attract in love and friendship and this is true in Gabby and Kris's case. I had a friend like Gabby and I liked her a lot, but got too overwhelming and the friendship ended on a sour note as there were other issues besides her being so energetic and social.

    Ben sure is eye candy. Hope that maybe Kris ends up with him, but knowing you that won't happen lol. Oh well this promises to be entertaining and if "ahem" you know who, "looks around expectantly while holding a bat", would make an appearance that would be even better.

    Rafael: He had not expected this amount of failure. What was a thug doing acting like an acrobat anyway? Was this what he did with his spare time or was there some other reason for his entry? Was this the thug Mr. Ponce dealt with regularly, and therefore his participation in this contest made the idea that another thug would be along to do business instead plausible? Or was there a group of criminals in here somewhere that was waiting to talk to him, who would confront Rafael for moving in on their turf? He really wanted to find them first, it was more professional.

    2djdumx.jpg

    Rafael: Rafael couldn't help but smirk as the man failed in trick after trick. He half wondered if the man was failing on purpose as comedy or as a distraction while someone was robbing the place. He looked back at the women he suspected might be involved, but the cook had left.

    2lusahg.jpg

    Rafael: The acrobat was looking highly amused, however. He couldn't decide whether it looked like she felt amused he failed or was happy that he was pulling off the plan, whatever it was. He looked to see but no one was robbing the place or sneaking back somewhere while no one was looking.

    2elh9cp.jpg

    Rafael: He dropped one of the knives. Rafael half expected the others to go flying towards the audience in precision that no one would expect from an 'acrobat' that couldn't juggle them. But none did.

    zimuip.jpg

    Rafael: When juggling the torches, one of them hit him in the head. There was something strange about it, he couldn't figure out if the man was really good at faking it or was genuinely failing. He suspected the acrobat lady was in on it, whatever it was...either she was happy he was doing a bad job because that would make her performance appear better, or she was happy he was distracting the audience, but he was doing badly and she seemed to be loving it.

    a4ci.jpg

    Rafael: He managed to do one flip off a ball at the end of the performance.

    syxyrb.jpg

    Rafael: He was hoping this was the end of the show, but of course it wasn't, just the thug's part of the show.

    2jbo1p2.jpg

    Rafael: There was also a throaty singer who wasn't half bad.

    25ti4ow.jpg

    Rafael: Then there was an acrobat/mime act that was very well done, the acrobat only fell on one trick in the whole show.

    scbe4n.jpg

    Rafael: Rafael decided he was going to talk to the thug after the show instead of Mr. Ponce. Yes, it was dangerous, but at the moment, the most dangerous thing he could do was give them time to decide he was a threat without him having made his intentions clear.

    xqdl3.jpg

    Rafael: But the show was wrapping up, and the female acrobat was not performing. Was this the thug's boss? Or was she just too sick to perform so she had him stand in?

    fjkh8x.jpg

    Ramiro Ponce: And the winner is....

    n650zl.jpg

    Ramiro Ponce: ...Peter Svalanovich! You have won, and don't forget your name will be in the papers tomorrow!

    1zd6kqw.jpg

    Rafael: For a moment, before he saw the man's face, he thought they'd thrown it- that the criminals had won the contest not by skill but by a 'he'll win or else' talk with Mr. Ponce. Then he saw the winners's fake smile.

    He laughed to himself. The sound of the applause covered it, of course. There weren't a lot of people, but the people here were loud, as some of them were quite juiced. Rafael knew pained smiles. That man was smiling to cover humiliation- because for whatever reason, he was being forced to humiliate himself. Rafael both felt sorry for him, and felt he deserved it, and felt relief that 'at least it happens to someone else besides me' all at the same time. If he was going to die tonight, at least he had a good time. On the other hand, if things worked in his favor this man might end up being a co worker, so it would probably be a good idea not to antagonize him too much.

    2wqdhy0.jpg

    Rafael: "Nyice show, Tigyer. Vhy arre you beink forrced to do this?"

    Count Snypes: "I'm being disciplined."

    Rafael: "Nothink to do vith me, I hope." Only because that would likely lead to a grudge. Grudges among coworkers lead to many unpleasant run ins with the law or death as they waited for the perfect time to betray you.

    Count Snypes: "You told Mr. Ponce you'd talk to him after the show. He's out front now."

    Rafael: He'd said that as if Mr. Ponce was the boss, but he'd specifically tailored the response to give that impression without saying so. Hmm. Interesting. He had a feeling he'd be talking to the sickly acrobat soon, but he might as well give them their game first.

    I would feel sorry for the tiger, but being part of a criminal organization you get what you deserve and this is all a criminal deserves in my book. Peculiar way to discipline though. Humiliation can lead to resentment and the man could be turned against his boss.

    I am surprised that the tiger was so forthcoming. I wouldn't admit to anything. I would just shoo him to Mr. Ponce and leave it at that. Opening your mouth too much can shorten your life considerably in that lifestyle.

    That woman acrobat sure is mysterious. She is dressed to perform, amused at the tiger's inability to perform and then disappears. I wonder what she was or is up to? Is she part of the plan?

    Well good luck on playing the game Rafael, I just hope they don't trump you.

    I also added the beehives from Supernatural in the back.
    14300306640_f55bb26b40.jpg
    Here's the outside view of the lot showing the rooftop and it still looks like the shared version which is also the CC-free one.
