Did Melinda and April just kiss?

Also, what is Caleb gonna say about that?

SnuffyBucket

@Sims4MagicalTales

They did indeed kiss.

I'm sure Caleb will be just fine about it. He's repeatedly showed himself to be calm and mature and... nope, I'm thinking of someone else.

SnuffyBucket

I've been away for a little while, soaking up sun and feeding mosquitoes, but now I am back, as you can see.
We are so close to the book 3 finale now, I can almost taste it. How does it taste? It tastes like metal and regret with a hint of something sweet...

Eighty percent sugar and twenty percent artificial colours and flavourings.



Chapter 3.50 - Apes Harper

SnuffyBucket

Weren’t you listening to me?!



Chapter 3.51 - Super Magic

SnuffyBucket

Ah... it's been a bit longer than I anticipated, but the finale of book three is here! I shall now be taking a break to gather my thoughts and fix a few things that are broken before resuming AE in the Autumn. Thanks to everyone for sticking with this delightful cesspool of misery. Hopefully your favourite character survives to fight another day...

Excuse me, I think I’m having some sort of episode




Chapter 3.52 - Botched Bloodline Pt. 1
Chapter 3.53 - Botched Bloodline Pt. 2

SnuffyBucket

It's the moment you've all been waiting for: Book 3's bloopers are here!

Sims4MagicalTales

The bloopers made me chuckle.

SnuffyBucket

I am briefly back with a little something to bridge the gap between the where I left you and where I will next pick you up.

And on that note, I expect to start dropping chapters again from 2nd September. Here, have a banner. Hey, look, it has colours! People are (sort of) smiling!

SnuffyBucket

So you want to read Almost Eternal but you don’t have time / are too lazy to wade through three whole books? Want a refresher before Book Four lands? Can’t remember what happened at the start and having sleepless nights about it but can’t bear to load it up and look at the awful newbie screenshots again?

Story summaries are now available for Book One, Book Two and Book Three on the story index.

SnuffyBucket

It's back...

A nicer place, a better crowd



Chapter 4.01 - A Great Witch

_sims_Yimi

WOO! Welcome back! You'll get a novel on the chapter on wordpress later as always. In the meantime, oh my gods, April has gone full slob in her new bedroom, hasn't she? 😆

SnuffyBucket

@_sims_Yimi has she? Can't say I noticed anything amiss in the apartment at all. Nope.

hellohannah2

just read the prologue & am obsessed. slightly overwhelmed with how much i have to catch up on but very excited to have found this story! Followed

SnuffyBucket

@hellohannah2 Overwhelming, yep, I understand that. This thing started as an activity to fill my furlough with and now it is a way of life. Hope you enjoy. 😁

SnuffyBucket

There is no need to panic. I repeat, there is no need to panic.



Chapter 4.02 - Like Flies

Sims4MagicalTales

I caught up on the updates!

SnuffyBucket

Nope, I'm still not dead, just dead slow.

One breath from being banished.



Chapter 4.03 - Domestic Bliss

SnuffyBucket

The horror of wearing saggy, beige knitwear.



Chapter 4.04 - Puffy

SnuffyBucket

Woah, it has been a small while longer than I'd planned, but here I have returned with your healthy dose of pixel misery.

This has been a huge misjudgement and I’m really sorry.



Chapter 4.05 - Skinny Punk Junkie

Thanks to everyone who reached out to me while I've been off hunting clowns.

SnuffyBucket

An evening stroll along a peaceful country road



Chapter 4.06 - Night Camouflage

GlacierSnow

I was just going to check out your story real quick and bookmark it before heading to bed. Now here I am 13 chapters in and two hours past my bed time. Guess this is going to have to be my next binge and catch-up read.

I will be back.

SnuffyBucket

@GlacierSnow Hey, welcome! Binge responsibly (if that's such a thing) as a) sleep is important and b) the story is aptly named.

SnuffyBucket

"Oh my gosh! It’s wriggling!"



Chapter 4.07 - Sleeping Beauty

GlacierSnow

And once again, I have irresponsibly stayed up way past my bedtime (I was only faking when I earned my "responsible adult" license). I am now on Chapter 22.

This is a grippingly good story. I love the dark humor, all the drama, and the delightful clash of characters. Almost impossible to stop reading once I start.

SnuffyBucket

@GlacierSnow
I see that you, like our hapless trio, are becoming one with the night. And, as you're surely learning on these nocturnal binges, nothing can possibly go wrong with that.

Thanks for reading!
