Justice: "Alright kiddos, don't destroy the house when I'm gone."
Harley: "Hey, if we can't destroy the house we should go destroy the city instead."
Scarlet: "Totally."
Hey, a potential girl for Harley to date. He is the kind of guy that's looking out for potential girlfriends.
Wowie, two potential girlfriends in the same park! The odds of either one of them going out with Harley.......slim to none.
Then the twins went out to the local lounge when they discovered something..........anyone can just use these instruments here.
While Scarlet might've had some practice doing karaoke with her mother, Harley has never picked up a guitar in his life. And it shows. Is he going to give up? Probably not.
Wait wait wait, hold the phone. Is that an Indian teenage girl that spawned in the city AFTER the Pets expansion pack was released? Indian Sims have been an endangered species since that expansion pack came out!..............AND she's wearing actual Indian clothing so for once I'd be able to actually use those clothes in game and not just having them sitting there gathering dust while I contemplate cultural appropriation by putting literally ANYONE in those clothes?
Sim: "Hi, I'm Akshara Srinivasan. Nice to meet you."
Harley: "I uhh.............out of respect for your culture I will not attempt to pronounce that last name."
Later after going home Harley begged his parents to buy him a guitar. He's not giving up on this yet! Also, might impress Akshara.
Kane: "Ha ha, you kids and your rock and roll. I'm glad you're picking up a hobby and not being a street rat."
Kane: "Scarlet, come look at your brother's 1 skill in the guitar skill! He doesn't suck as bad as you'd think."
Scarlet: "Food."
Then finally the entire family came to listen to Harley sucking.
Scarlet: "Moooom, I want to play the guitar too! Make Harley let me play the guitar too!"
And that's when Justice had a choice to make. After years of hard work and parenting she has the opportunity to settle a sibling problem like this. What kind of conflict resolution will she go with?
Meh, just buy Scarlet her own guitar. She can afford it, doesn't have to turn one of her kids against her and doesn't have to make decisions. Parenting done right.
Now they can suck together!
Speaking of parenting done right....
Harley: "Alright so I gotta talk about the girl I met today."
Harley: "She's pretty cool, I tried to show her the general direction of where our Alien ancestors home planet is in and she actually showed interest! No one shows interest when I do that!"
Harley: "Though, she might just be a little insane or 'erratic' as we call it now as she just had an argument with herself while we were hanging out."
Harley: "Though I'm not much better, I just started singing to myself out of nowhere as well."
Harley: "However, I think my Harley charm was working out on her. I think she's a keeper."
Harley: "Were you guys even listening to me?"
Kane: "I was having war flashbacks."
Justice: "And I went to go get out of my uniform while you were yapping away."
@DoodlyDoofus "...He's the kind of guy who..."
You mean he's straight and single?
...I have to revise my harch criticism of Jungle Adventures.
The Jungle part still sucks Llama, but the actual temple was kinda fun. And profitable. Agathe and Benny actually quintroupled their savings by selling the treasures they found.
(Easy to do when you start with a mere 4000 though).
...
Agathe and Benny had to go back to their rented cottage several times before finally making it to the legendary temple of legends.
Benny dived headfirst into more excavations while Agathe made a... an... acquaintance of sorts
Unfortunately this interesting person(?) decides he needs to go home and sleep(!) and so they don't have time to talk to him a lot and have to delve deeper by themselves.
For some reason the screenshot I took of them finding the final treasure didn't register. Weird.
After finding a golden frog and a ton of vases, they head back to town to celebrate. Agathe, who loves dancing, quickly adopted the local customs.
After coming back home to Newcrest, the couple celebrates in a different way, before Agathe has to rush to work and Benny starts investigating the last of the treasures he found.
Gameplay has been a bit slow with me ^_^ since I've been spending more time building my Sims website rather than playing the actual game. But I did got to play for a bit.
Trevor and Kyra are very much enjoying their time as husband and wife since their recent marriage.
He's bonding really well with his step-daughter Thalia.
Thalia is getting good at playing chess, she manages to beat all her friends at it.
Even Landgraab kids have to finish their school projects in time.
Trevor also stays in touch as much as he can with the rest of his family since he moved in with Kyra.
Victor and Annie hired a nanny for their toddler Andrew. Her name is Eva Castle.
Daniel has been practicing his painting skill.
I had him take his girlfriend on another date and he took this picture of her:

Since Maxis in their enormous wisdom decided to make adventure gear for sale randomized, and I lost my machete in the first doorway...This second trip is proving far less romantic than the first. Benny has to spend 3-4 full sim hours to clear ONE DOORWAY because somebody at Maxis made a very very annoying design decision (I wasted 36 hours of my 4 day vacation hoping someone should sell a Machete. Never happened. But then vendors seems bugged, there are never more than two at a time (despite 3 tables) so a random table is always empty. More often than not there's just a single vendor selling bug spray). *GRRRR*
....
Agathe and Benny decides to go back over the weekend for a second trip.
It starts
well enough... With wine, song, dance and a proposal!
Then Agathe lost her machete in the first doorway...
So the rest of the vacation is spent like this:
....
Random interlude a few evenings earlier:
Agathe decided to bring out her own DJ booth at a party at the Bluffs... and every single sim abandoned the "official" DJ to dance at her station instead
Why don't you guys (who share massive picture posts) start a story thread dedicated to your Sims and their family in the story section of the forum? Just wondering

My sim Danielle, now a young adult, is ready to move into an apartment of her own. This is her face as she waits for her parents to finish getting ready so they can head to San Myshuno.
They made it! She will never get tired of this veiw...
After helping her unpack everything, of course mom and dad have to say their goodbyes...
Hi, Arun Bheeda here. Or should I say Aaron. I'm deeply undercover as a cop, and learning about the sims mafia. A full-time job while adding to my husband and recent fatherly duties. This is what I've found out so far:
1) Nancy Landgraab aka the Brains Married: Geoffrey who seems to not have any idea what his wife is up to
2) Jacques Villareal aka the Boss Questions: Is he actually retired? marital status: widowed twice and currently married to Katrina Calliente. Believe that Katrina killed his second wife, Mila Munch to marry this rich sim.
3) Malcolm Landgraab aka The Kiss Up marital status: stole Summer Holiday from his older brother, Johnny. Has gotten her pregnant and living with her.
4) Hugo Villareal aka the Muscle. A sweet guy, he's also the glue that keeps the mafia together. Enjoys throwing dinner parties and cooking for the group. Engaged to boyfriend Raj and lives together with Raj's mom, Geeta. Question: They are buying a resterant. Is this legit or a way for the family to launder money?
My goal is to infiltrate the group by getting close to Katrina. She's hot headed, jealous, and unfortunately, I'm falling in love with her... uh oh, is that a baby bump?
Started a new game as I want to wait until Seasons to continue my other games. My sim Bryce King took on a new look and new traits and I added some old sims from Sims 2. Many of them immediately married into the others. Bella left Mortimer for Daniel Pleasant Lazlo Curious married Eva Capricciosa, Mary Sue married General Buzz Grunt, Cassandra Goth then married Ulrike Faust, and Miko Ojo married Nervous Subject
Lucas, Hope McConnell-Adler's husband, started an almost deadly house fire while making a cake for the four parents' birthdays. Lucas, Henry, Hope and Haley are now adults and their sons are three days away from becoming teenagers!
PS: I said 'almost deadly' because little Aidan McConnell, their nephew, got caught in the flames, but he's okay!

Here are a couple of shots from my game just now.
Random townie: You've got the looks, lady. I should be so lucky. Good thing my cupcake doesn't judge me.

Fifth gen heiress Demira Pohl is a mother of four (and counting). With her eldest children Ernesto (right) and Edgar (left).
The boys took off to the park on a Sunday to get away from their hectic household.
Edgar took on the Grim Reaper in a game of chess - and won!
Ernesto tried to hit on teenage girls - and failed.
Finn Pohl is Level 7 of the criminal career track. He spends his days off spoiling his only daughter Elsa.
The youngest, little Emmott, grew-up into a tot and I adore him already. Potential heir material!
Elsa, however, has her doubts.
how are you finding the pack? I'm new to it too and I love it!
"wahoo" - aquaman

"There's no way you're going out of this house dressed like that !!"

So I've been playing a new household lately. Danny and Hailey were roommates that ended up falling in love.
They're both outdoor enthusiasts so what better way to pop the question than go on a vacation to Granite Falls?
Also... of course this would happen. (Featuring the dogs, Bella & Timber)
