“Really?” Thorne asked “You think we should go? You want to go to the hospital?”
“Yes, really,” Don answered. “Something feels different. The pain changed, and the doctor said to go to the hospital right away if that happened.”
“And you’re ok with me taking you?” Thorne asked. “After what I did earlier?”
“Well I’m not gonna walk there,” Don told him.
“And who’s going to feed me pizza when the doctor says I can’t have any?” Don asked him.
Spoiler - At Home
“Thank you,” Thorne said. “Thank you for letting me take you.”
“And I’ll give you pizza right in front of that doctor. Let him try to stop me,” Thorne promised.
“You know I’ll get you anything you want, right? No matter what, I’ll get it for you, ok?” Thorne said.
“Yes,” Don answered, “I know, and I already told you, you can’t buy my trust Thorne. You have to earn it.”
“And I’m going to do it this time, no matter how long it takes. I’m not going to hurt you again,” Thorne answered.
“Hold on! I have to change my clothes,” Thorne told Don. “I’ll be as fast as I can, Ok?” And Thorne ran down to the laundry room.
“Yeah yeah,” Don said. “Be quick.”
How long can this take? Don thought to himself. Anytime Thorne…..
Thorne changed his clothes … Ok, let’s pick up the pace there Thorne, be ecstatic later, your boyfriend is waiting!
“Are you ready?” Thorne asked.
“Yeah, I’ve been ready,” Don said.
20 minutes later Don stepped out of the car in front of the hospital….“Ok, wait here for one minute, ok? You’ll be ok! I’m going to park the car,” Thorne yelled to Don as he sped away.
“Don? Is that the doctor? Shouldn’t he be inside? Washing his hands or something?” Thorne asked Don.
“Yes, good afternoon,” Thorne said, pleasantly. “My boyfriend is in labor, and he needs to be admitted right away.”
“There will be a short wait,” the receptionist answered. “The nurse stepped away for a moment.”
“She’ll have to check his vitals before we know if it’s an emergency or not,” she told Thorne.
“Maybe you didn’t hear me correctly,” Thorne said to her. “I said my Boyfriend is in labor, as in, he’s a male. We need a doctor immediately!”
“Thorne? Thorne it hurts, and I already have my hospital gown on. Obviously it’s an emergency.” Don told Thorne.
“I’ll find the nurse myself!” Thorne shouted, and off he ran!
The nurse has to be somewhere! Thorne was exasperated.
Maybe down this way? Thorne kept searching.
“Oh my God Thorne,” Don said. “Let’s go.”
“Oh! You’re here! They let you in!” Thorne noticed Don.
“Thorne? I don’t like this,” Don was sad.
(And look here! The doctor is @RedDestiny92 ‘s Richard!) “He better have washed his hands,” Thorne muttered.
“Thorne?” Don said. “It’s cold, I don’t like it.”
“Don! Don, are you ok?”
“No, of course I’m not ok,” Don answered. “I’m a man, and I’m having a baby, it’s not really an ok-ish kind of thing.”
Spoiler - In the birthing room
“Doc! Hey Doc! Don’s not ok!” Thorne yelled, pointlessly.
Don is uncomfortable. Don breaks the 4th wall. “Hey, peeps,” he says. “I hope you’re enjoying this, ‘cause I’m not.”
“I’m still watching you,” says Thorne.
Then …. through the miracle that is Sim’s technology, Dr. Richard Coleman transfers the baby to the bassinet, while the baby is already in the bassinet! No, it's not twins!
And Thorne is happy …. Very happy.
Is Don happy? Well, he’s happy to be out of that monstrosity of a machine.
But is he truly happy? ….. “Thorne? Didn’t we just talk about this? You know, page 622 in the Forum, the ‘What happened in your game today?’ thread. Remember? It’s My baby. Does that ring any bells?”
“Oh never mind, now I’m in my athletic wear, I’m going to go walk on the medical testing treadmill for a while. Calm my nerves, and walk off this baby bump.”
“Check please? We’d like to go.”
“Well, the baby's gone, that’s kinda trippy.”
“Don, Sweetheart, you did it! It’s over. I love you, I really do. Let’s go home, ok?”
“Oh look Thorne! She’s already here! Awesome!”
“I’ve been waiting for you for such a long time, my little angel. You just can’t even imagine.”
Spoiler - Home Again
“And you’re finally here.”
“Everything’s going to be fine now. Don’t worry, Papa's’s got ya.”
“Hi my darling baby. You’re doing fine, aren’t you?”
“Your papa thinks I’m gonna mess this up. He doesn’t trust Daddy at all, no, not a bit.”
“But we’ll show him, ok? You, me, and your Papa, we’re going to be great together.”
“Daddy is gonna take care of both of you, ok? I’m gonna be so careful. I’ll never hurt you two, I promise.”
Daddy Thorne and Papa Don are proud to introduce you to their little sunshine! Kalila Aria Lothario-Bailey (kah-LEE-lah -Beloved) (AR r ee uh -Song)
LOL "There are slots? I've been playing this game all wrong." Trust me, that's exactly how I felt when somebody in this thread told me about it LOL. I think CAS should do a better job of telling people they exist 😅
The story was great and when I have time I will comment on it much better. It was cute to see her flirting a little. It's not something she normally does LOL.
And I saw where you said you're having trouble doing updates, I guess you can only do what you can do right? It always amazes me when people say that they are tired of playing Sims. I would seriously play/build/screenshot/write Simlit 16 hours a day if I could get away with it, sadly I can't.
I just love this Bob and Don update. Eliza sure gives him a hard time about all of his exes, 🤣 sounds like he deserves it though. 😅
I'm glad that Bob finally talked things out with Don
And yes handsome Hanson is handsome 😂 Wanted on a galactic scale!
However, when you are through skilling up those kids in those houses I want to see a wedding! I want to hear a promise from you! 😂
This new story with Caleb and the roommate is super cute. How fun to have them bond over designer clothing that is related to a show they both love. Wow did they have a good conversation topic. It's good that he realized he needed to do stuff with her or he would just end up sitting alone in his room. Good job to Lilith on that one!
Poor Brant and Brent. When it rains it pours right?
What a cute update this is! So much Rainbow everywhere. I love really getting to know her personality as a little girl and not a toddler. Despite hardships in her life she is completely and utterly positive and that is amazing to see.
I'm glad everybody is doing so well with their jobs and their schooling. I hope things continue like this, and yes it's pretty ironic that they were eating pizza and McKenna was out delivering it LOL.
I don't know if I'm going to catch all of your little notes but I will try. I just love this one with Karla and Don at your nightclub. That's crazy, how did they get that green bar up so quickly? Had they known each other before this?
Oh! I loved this one when you show the picture of Baby after she just caught a frog. I'm amazed that she was even willing to do it with the squeamish trait 😅
And okay, I did not know there was a ghost cheat LOL but apparently it's not foolproof if she can't get the discount at ghost night 😂😉
Oh okay, I have always wished we had more of the larger lots also.
I saw where you said you uploaded the lot. I have to go in my game and see if I can download it, my gallery wasn't working at all yesterday, it was quite annoying.
the picture of the wife doing the facepalm is the best. I don't get those very often 😅
I love your J Huntington family. His son really looks like him, and he himself looks wonderful! Well, he always does LOL April is just beautiful, and it's nice to see that J and Zoe have gotten back together! they are very cute together
Not sure if I'll catch all of your updates either, but right now I'm looking at the hundred babies. I see Darrel Charm's son Freddy is a young adult now, right? And he still has those beautiful purple eyes. Looks like he has Darrel's nose too.
LOL bye Colton!
And Geri is a beautiful teenage girl! It will be fun to see if those freckles keep going in this challenge
Oh! okay, that's really cool that you're going to make a club with Dash's kids and your kids! what a great idea!
And yeah, I can see the resemblance between Benedict and his daughter.
I understand why Patrick and Juniper don't have a lot of money. I hope that they are high-level in gardening and painting if that's their only way to get money lol. And my goodness, Who would know that MCCC would decide to pull that triplet thing just because a space opened up in the household? 😂 Evil MCCC
LMAO I'm glad your hubs was there to talk you out of doing all the evil bad nasties to your little cast.
Looks like you had fun in your other saves anyway.
And I see Gordon is in this save also, watching his wife decide that Devin is the one for her LOL, maybe he deserved it for being such a you know what in the other save and tricking his brother like that 😅
Okay, I'm going to talk about that last post that was so amazing! I hadn't realized that it was Trinity that had come back, I missed the fact that she had left Atlas's body. I'm not surprised, I knew he would have been fighting back internally!
But she bit off more than she could chew in trying to challenge him.
What would you have done if she had won the duel? I'm so glad that he did. And what a weird thing that she dissolved/combusted like that 😳 I love it, but it's still weird. 😂
LOL at Grim, "that's not in my job description"
Well it needs to be in your job description this time Mr. Grim! 🤣
I sure was hoping that one of them was a strong enough spellcaster to at least bring Don back for poor Caleb. I mean, I love Don, so I wanted him back anyway but Caleb was pregnant and that was awful 🥺
And it was really nice of Dylan to insist that Atlas try to bring Logan back too. I see he feels strongly about promises.
And what a cute ending, Sophia give him a big hug, and then yells at him LOL
Anyway, it was all wonderful, so dramatic and all the pictures were soooo beautiful. Your Sims always look amazing with all their custom content. You do such a great job with them!
I love how everybody tried to comfort Caleb, but then Don was there and everything was fine.
There are still good people that have died, but I guess you can't bring everybody back. I'm just glad he could do the two people that he did, and now Ivy and Trinity are both gone for good, I hope! 😅
The pictures of Halloween are just adorable! ❤️ And that's exactly how their kids would act 🤣
I'll have to go and check out the Simsta update, that sounds fun! 😊
And Hugo looks pretty cool like that! I've not seen him exploring that aspect of his life.
That's cool that Geoffrey Landgraab has taken over care of Max!
The girl's apartment is still super cute! Even with the addition of another bed, it's still darling, and doesn't look cramped at all. I'm glad that Luna has a nice place to live and good friends to be with 😊
Happy Anniversary! I'm so glad that you were brave and took that big step a year ago!
It has always been wonderful watching your stories develop, and reading the amazing updates with your awesome sense of humor. So thank you to you for being the wonderful person that you are calling us ❤️😊
I was in Williamsburg about 12 years ago, and happened to see the jail where Blackbeard was imprisoned for quite a while.
I can't remember the story completely clearly, but it is possible that he was executed right from that jail. Don't quote me though, LOL I'm just trying to remember something from 12 years ago
Have you ever heard the story about how his body supposedly swam around the boat three times without its head? 😯
LOL I like all of your inspirations for your pirates, but I especially like "Bones is just a skeleton"
Don't you know that Bones is much more than a skeleton? "I'm a doctor Jim! Not a skeleton!" 😅
Okay, sorry, I didn't quite get to everybody but at least I made a dent. I will be back tomorrow to try to completely catch up 😊
I have Fernando Veleta stuck for ages on the "witness a death of a sim" part of the Public Enemy aspiration. I've had him host house parties and invite elders. Nothing.
Then I rotated to the squeamish Rohan Elderberry and, as he was enjoying lunch in Larry's Lagoon, guess what happened? An elder nearby croaked it!
@Ellupelluellu next time tell them to install an antivirus on their phones... I wouldn't be surprised if people like that just believed it. People are strange!
@Svineprutter thank you! The Villareal kids are really interesting, given their upbringing with Jacques. I do need to have Bjorn give Sofia the update on what happened earlier (short version, villains vs secret agents), or at least have it mentioned behind the scenes.
@Nushnushganay that's really neat. And yeah, organic relationships are fun - I do engineer a lot of mine based on storytelling, but when Caleb and Johnny first got together they would do so many autonomous romantic interactions their pink bar just skyrocketed.
@DeafSimmer uh oh, the villains are close behind them. The kids better watch out, they seem pretty distracted!
@AlwaysAsking yeah, seriously. There are still a lot of cultures (particularly conservative/religious ones) where it's still super frowned upon, unfortunately, but I would rather a society where divorce is common instead of a society where unhappy marriages and abuse is common!
No more interactions between those two, alas ...Plenty of other interactions, but not between those two! And yeah, uh, the small house with the level 9 flirty painting, um, isn't actually necessary XD Enjoy the update below! And yeah, the apartment is a pretty decent size. Plenty of breathing room for the three of them, and time for Luna to stay somewhere supportive!
Poor Don, that looked distinctly uncomfortable! I did laugh out loud at the breaking the fourth wall, though! "Thorne? Didn't we just talk about this? You know, page 622 in the Forum, the 'What happened in your game today?' thread. Remember? It’s My baby. Does that ring any bells?" Welcome to the world, Kalila Aria!
@Ellupelluellu ooh, that'd certainly make things interesting XD But yeah, there are plenty other things to keep the housemates miserable without adding thirst / being drank from! And Sims are rubbish at self-care, really. Morgyn almost starved today, seriously.
A lovely wedding! I really dig the whole goth aesthetic. Okay, do those gloves come with the mixologist outfit or is that just Caleb being extra? XD Aww, I love all the 'where are they now?' kind of shots! W o w, Darling needs to chill XD Double red with Morgan, man! For the traits, yeah, can confirm Wolfgang got the family one, Malcolm got loner, Darling got hot-headed, Sofia - Sofia got evil?! Cass got geek, Hugo got klepto oh jeez, and Morgan got glutton (and married to a foodie, that's lowkey hilarious)!
@RedDestiny92 thanks! I want to add some more clutter for Luna, but for now, she's got a comfortable place to stay.
Man, Caleb looks deeply unimpressed at the attempted matchmaking XD Bonding over fashion and media, that's pretty sweet. Ohh, Lilith Pleasant? Thought I recognised her face! Heh, she's going to get a surprise when she finds out his teeth aren't filed! Oh wow, good luck, Heckings XD
@Dust_Bunny2010 *hastily shoves giant list of carb-heavy recipes* Cold fruit stuff, huh... it's mostly smoothies and sorbets coming to mind. I can send you some favourite smoothie combos, if you want!
And the theorising is pretty fun ;D I look forward to it all developing!
Time for Big Brother 2020 - Get Together edition! Week 1, days 3-5!
So clearly I need to tweak certain mods because really now. (Actually I need to tweak it anyway because it's literally only showing M-F interactions and attraction and like. Come on. This is me playing, of course they're all queer.)
Anyway. Back to the house! Since the Vatores going on their slight rampage wasn't actually meant to be happen, I cancelled out Diego and Cass's negative moodlets from being attacked. Caleb rides out the last of his tension on his favourite pool float.
Cass is A-OK again!
And Lilith is full of energy, as usual.
Morgyn honey I can't help but feel this is an act of supreme futility.
Caleb is still in the pool, but at least he's not sulking any more!
Lilith chooses a spectacularly inappropriate area to do sit-ups. Just be glad that towel texture is like that!
Everyone goes to bed. Well, most people go to bed. Cass goes to pool float.
Bit more direction. I prompted Morgyn to plant an apple (no one had touched the seeds), and, very obligingly, they planted everything else too!
Don takes the opportunity to come over and flirt.
Astonishingly, Morgyn happily flirts back! I imagine Don is surprised but pretty pleased?
What a good boy
Caleb looks unsure about his sister chatting with the evil dude.
Morgyn, having stayed up literally all night, finally gets into the low reds with their energy. Do they go to bed? Nope! They climb into the hot tub and fall asleep there!
It's okay, he doesn't bite now.
Caleb discovers the Diary Room. I actually thought he was talking to the camera but it turned out Lilith was just offscreen.
So I got this alert and... um... well, I can't actually share caps, so here are some caps of the aftermath. Despite the fact that she got a positive moodlet off it, I'm not sure how impressed Cass was.
Crying it out in the closet. I think it's fair to say she has regrets?
So this conversation between Johnny and Malcolm actually started pleasant but before I could grab a cap of it they started yelling at each other.
Morgyn has discovered the bed! Alas, they have yet to discover this thing called 'sleeping under the blankets'.
Good boy continues to be good
I have no idea what Malcolm and Don were talking about but they were doing it VERY ENTHUSIASTICALLY!
Morgyn this is still not a bed.
Adorable sibling interactions. Lilith naturally gets Energised from her Active trait, and Caleb got Energised just by chatting with her!
They're super cute and put Johnny and Malcolm to shame.
"Are you kidding. Why do so many people think this is a bed. This is a hot tub, it is not a bed!"
"Oh wait you're hot. Carry on."
Cass is like, "Aww, you're sweet! I'm going to bed. Alone."
Another good boy.
Morgyn has discovered sleeping in a bed!!!!
It's 3 AM and the vampires are out and about and... playing basketball. Totally normal creature-of-the-night activities.
Speaking of creature-of-the-night activities... Cass looks like she enjoyed this one a bit more than her earlier, uh, activities with Don! The hot tub: still not a bed, but pretty fun nonetheless.
Johnny is like, "Okay look you of all people actually have no room to judge what constitutes a normal breakfast okay?!"
Popcorn: breakfast of champions.
"HECC."
Okay, here starts this chain of everyone's hygiene dropping around the same time and a chain of embarrassment. Diego walks in on Malcolm. Diego is amused. Morgyn walks in to wash the dishes, because what is a kitchen sink.
Sink breaks. Morgyn looks like they're considering forbidden words again.
Diego decides to shower. Lilith immediately walks in. Diego looks like he tried to salvage things with a, "Like what you see? ;D" and Lilith has just laughed.
Diego walks out. Morgyn walks back in. Lilith and Morgyn go off into one of the toilet stalls. Johnny and Cass walk in. Johnny and Cass start showering. "So are you aggressively ignoring the noises coming from that stall?" "Yes. Yes I am."
Morgyn cheerfully washes up after their activities with Lilith...
...and Lilith wanders out, looking extraordinarily pleased with herself.
Meanwhile, at the pool...
...Caleb attempts to deathglare whoever just splashed him into submission.
Diego doesn't think Malcolm is looking too good.
He's actually not doing so crash-hot himself! Malcolm is dazed and dizzy, Diego is now running a fever, and Morgyn is all stuffed up...
...although that still doesn't stop Lilith giving them the eye as they cross each other's paths in the kitchen ;D What is social distancing?
Johnny continues to eat popcorn and be quietly pleased he's not part of the Disaster Squad so far. Drama-free life, baby!
@DeafSimmer Well, that was a curious twist of events. Didn't see that coming. Totally expect that the two baddies will come along and really mess things up.
@DeafSimmer I see that the follow-up is just what I was anticipating. Can't wait to see which side wins.
@Svineprutter - I used the Pose Player for the poses and tried to find the right ones for their reaction.
@ryttu3k - There wasn't that much costume choices, especially for the kids.
Simba will always be the star...
...until the queen herself finally comes back from the grave.
@AlwaysAsking - Her death was quite...something. Never happened to any of my spellcasters before, so it's kinda funny that she's the first to die like that. Though I think you have a 50/50 chance of surviving it???
I had Atlas practice Untamed magic (I think it was) to learn a new spell, and luckily he learned the Dedeathify spell. I know how it is used, but never tried it out.
Thank you so much!
Don't worry, Ivy and Trinity won't be coming back. That'll be the last time you'll be seeing them.
[The Aftermath]
Everything went back to normal after the Red Blood Moon.
Although many lives had been lost, they were not forgotten. Well...some of them.
Andromeda visited a house in Brindleton Bay to speak with Vladislaus' daughter, Ioana. No one never knew Vladialaus actually had a kid, but the reason was that she was born a human and, fearing that his daughter would end up like the others, Vladislaus sent her away to a human family where she would live a normal life.
Andromeda told Ioana what happened to her father and stood by as Ioana was comforted by her husband as she wept.
Since there was no one to take the role as the leader of Forgotten Hollow, Vlad Bloodvein became the leader with his wife by side. He was saddened by the loss of his good friend, but knew that Vladislaus' death wasn't in vain.
Once the time comes, Lilith will soon be the next leader of Forgotten Hollow. Their daughter, Lilith, and her wife, Inna, moved in.
Morgyn came back home to Glimmerbrook, not before visiting to the doctor for a check-up and getting good news, and was greeted by their and Seth's daughter, Elan.
Morgyn told Seth the good news he got at the doctors: they are expecting another child! How after what happened to them when Trinity/Atlas punched them in the stomach? Not sure.
Morgyn isn't the only one who's expecting.
L. received good news that she is pregnant, and Simeon was excited to be the father of their lil' witch/wizard.
Don and Caleb finally got back together after escaping death many times before. It wasn't the first time they nearly lost each other. Don almost lost Caleb when he was murdered by a lady at the karaoke bar, thankfully the Grim Reaper listened at that time.
Now, with the baby on the way, they can finally relax with nothing to worry about.
I haven´t been in a mood or shape to post lately, but I live. Most recent statistics in my country are 715 diagnosed cases of covid-19 and 3 deaths. As all my real-life plans have been postponed indefinitely, I am living vivaciously through my sims.
@sarabeth2984
Lorelai´s dress is a cc recolor of a dress from Get Together. I don´t know if you have heard of this website maxismatchccworld.tumblr.com , but it´s a heavensent when it comes to non-alpha cc. Lorelai is a lot like her mom (they literally have 2 traits in common: loves outdoors and stoic), though she is friendlier and more outgoing than Evita. But not friendly and outgoing enough to put up with the twins, their moods and endless chatter 24/7.
Loved your Christmas update! I can never get holidays right myself, everyone always ends up wandering off to different direction, try to take good screenshots like this. Maybe I should start building smaller houses
@ryttu3k
I have noticed that vampires would autonomously use the plasma packs you can buy with the computer, but not plasma fruits or the packs made from fish and frogs. Another feature the developers failed to tune properly. Some time ago, I wanted one of my sims to have a vampire roommate, but had to abandon the thought and make him playable because of that, as I did not want him to accidentally drain anyone.
I can´t express how much I love your BB updates! You may have given me an idea what to do to fix the lack of romance in Luna´s life.
Out of curiosity - how many different saves have you going on?
@AlwaysAsking
A hint: Laena´s second passion is a "who", not "what".
You are not the only one who would love to see the dynamics between Joaquin, L and Sergio in action. Why I avoid taking a look at it is mainly because I am a little afraid of what I may find. Enraged vampires havwe a bad habit of drinking uncontrollably, which, with mods, is deadly. So yeah, my main concern is that were I to load their household, someone would walk in on someone and people will die. And who would then end up raising baby Tiana? Her soon-to-be teenage sister Mariana.
I have a confession to make: it took me a minute or two to recall who the heck Nico is (I named all of Don´s 100+ kids myself, I remember the older ones but I gave up after 70 or so) But now that I do, I am going to add him too. Lets just hope that he won´t end up marrrying one of his brothers or sisters he is no longer related to. So far, I have added Nadia (Nancy Landgraab´s daughter, in this save she is her sister), Parker (Pierce Delgarato´s son, this save´s Pierce is still a child and has no relation to him), Emmanuel (Don´s grandson) and Christine (Cassandra Goth´s daughter, has no relation to her in this save), but I will be adding more. They are dear to me, so I take the time to give everyone a home and a job.
I am about 90% sure that the guy in the last screenshot is Sergio´s son, but I can´t recall his name either. I used to have notes about everyone, but now I can´t find those either.
Concerning Don and Thorne: I still think Thorne is an illegitimate son of a rat fit to feed the sharks, though you are doing good job with portraying him as somewhat redeemable. Please freshen my memory - is Don aware of the hormone theraphy Thorne made him go through without his consent in order to make him able to concieve? Because for me, messing with your partner´s health is a huge red flag ands a potentioal court case.
There will be an actual update soon, I promise! Stay sane and safe!
No pictures yet. Alejandra is back from Uni, and has bought a super-modern trailer and parked it on the lot next to the trailer park. She had some leverage on the mayor when some people in Strangerville complained that it was not matching the buildings around it; after all she IS the hero of Strangerville and got a permit to put her trailer there.
Trailer is based on someone else's build but I am modifying it completely on the inside and quite heavily on the outside.
Speaking of, btw... where are those Air Condition pieces used outside Zest's trailer in the build menu? I can't find them...
Anna Behr Munch
Behr Munch family
We brought Karl & Lisbeth to the romance festival to have some fun.
What an outfit aunt Elina Vera Lothario wore tonight!
Lucas & I wanted to celebrate our love for each other by renewing our weddingvows.
At that moment we discovered we are expecting our 3rd child at the end our first term in uni.
Lucas teached Karl basic needs.
While Lisbeth & ! talked about colors in the living room.
Behr Munch family spent time on the library, so Lucas & Anna could improve skills for their degree.
It was a nice and sunny playtime on the beach for Karl & Lisbeth.
Lucas & I discussed what we need to buy for our family right now. Since we are both students, we have to be careful with what we spend our money on.
Lucas started to write on his first book on the new computer.
I started to read the new book about photography.
We are excited to go to our first classes tomorrow at Ubrite.

The life of my sims. Elina & Don.
My sim is a vampire, but his boyfriend was human. The bf died a long time ago, and unfortunately, I wasn't on the lot at the time, so there was no urn to collect. I've been waiting for the bf's ghost to call my sim to ask him to hang out somewhere, and it finally happened! I was able to ask the bf to join the household again. My sim and his bf can finally move out of the house they're sharing with my vamp's sister and start over! I can't wait for them to get married (they weren't able to last time) and adopt a bunch of kids.
@ryttu3k I love what you did to Hugo. they look fantastic.
Playtesting - not just tabletop games and card games any more. Really that should have been playtested in Beta and not [img]just with accounting and marketing but actual players. https://i.imgur.com/t48COW6.jpg[/img]
@AlwaysAsking Just noticed your Don and Thorne update! Haha poor Don and Thorne dealing with a typical The Sims 4 weird hospital delivery LOL "He should wash his hands" LOL Very much so with the Covid-19 right now though hopefully that's not a thing in TS4. I love the name of his daughter. I'm looking forward to more chapters hopefully some with Danni and Mary-Alice and more of Don and Thorne trying to raise a baby.
Well nothing the other day due to a problem with a new mod I added it and sent most of my time trying to fix that; but I just started a new game with a new family.
Not much happened so far.The mom is a free lance photographer and the for the dad I am using a new custom career I found on MTS (ninja career. I wanted to try it out). I mainly spend most of my time setting everything up and testing out new cc. I want my sims to look perfect lol. I gave some premades a make over. It takes time so I decided to save the world so I don't have to keep starting over each time I start a new game.
Edit-Oh, I just remembered a few things. The grandma living with the family died and I changed Darling Walsh to be Miko's sister as it honestly made no sense for a random teen living with two adults that are unrelated and not together even. I gave the backstory that their parents moved to another town (wanting to retire) and (I can't remember the new name I gave to Darling) didn't want to leave the city and Miko invited her sister to move in so she could still stay in the city with her friends. The parents were a bit hesitant at first; but decided it was o.k. since Miko can care for herself and would be a good influence.
Normally I don't make huge changes to premade sims; but it just bothered me as it made no sense. If Darling was an adult, I would of just mostly left her as she is beside give a different hairstyle and outfit.
So I've sent Elric to Foxbury. First week was largely uneventful with the exception of Secret Society paying him a visit and couple of shenanigans related to NSFW mods.
Comes second week and my roommate dies laughing in the restroom.
Elric being a generous vampire he is saves her with a death flower, everything is dandy.
Not one minute later...yep, you guessed it. My roommate perishes AGAIN.
Grim and the girl proceed to watch some TV...
...as MCCC informs me that Bella Goth has gotten a second divorce.
I can’t wait to see what happens between Peter and Dwayne. Poor Peter, his crush is heading off to college. Although, congrats to Dwayne for getting into college!
It's sad to read more about his terrible childhood. I guess it's good that he went the route he went, becoming a "seen but not heard" child. So many kids in those situations develop Oppositional Defiance Disorder, and continue acting out, because even though it's negative attention, it's the only attention they get. 😔
Yes, it could've all ended very badly
Gee, I wish he'd had a doting grandma that cared about him.
That would've been wonderful! He'd be just like my dad then. Sadly, not the case
And of course Iron Man would be his favorite sweatshirt 😂
Obviously
If you run out of folks to age down, or want to do even more you could have them tell us a story about something fun they did while they are a toddler, and write it in toddler terms! Lol
That could be fun! Maybe in forms of flashbacks. You probably know how much I love flashbacks
Thank you!
GOOD NEWS! My Mac is fixed. Yay So maybe I'll finish the next update by the end of the week! Anyway, I didn't have any access to the internet this past week so I couldn't post anything But I created a few toddlers I'll be uploading them every single day! Today's toddler is... Steve!
Life and personality: Steve grew up in a little village near Windenburg. There were no cars, no cellphones, sometimes even no electricity. The people were kind and simple, grew crops and caught fish. But they were very closed off. They had a strong bond in their community but didn't accept any outsiders.
Steve was an only child. He lived with his parents and their parents in a small house. He grew up in a very safe and happy environment. He could wander anywhere he wanted, take anything he wanted and talk to anyone he wanted. Little Steve knew everyone and everyone knew him.
Every day for Stevie was the same. He woke up, went to school, helped his parents with the farm, played with friends till supper time, went to bed and did the same thing the very next day. On Sundays they visited the church, on Wednesdays they invited over guests. Nothing exciting or special ever happened in the village and Steve barely knew anything outside of it. He grew up sheltered, but loved and cared for. And thanks to that, even though life hit Steve pretty hard on the head later on, he managed to adjust to the drastic changes his life made rather quickly.
I gave him the charmer trait because he was such a sweet toddler Facial features: I mean... it's Steve. He's always adorable! Toddler, child, adults - doesn't matter, he'll always be my smol bean who rocks any haircut Besides the eyebrows which I always adjust, I haven't changed a thing in him. Clothes: Steve was pretty much a doll for his parents. He had a ton of cute outfits and his grandma would constantly knit or sew him something new For his everyday outfit I gave him a cute little floral outfit because Steve went floral ever since the day he was born
More under the cut:
For his cold everyday outfit I gave him a cute sweater his gran probably made for him. I also gave him some knitted tights... And okay, I don't know how many people here can relate but little kids wearing tights and no pants was an actual thing. Still is in some countries. And he looks super cute in them.
For the formal outfit, Steve wears a cute traditional outfit with a bowtie. I also couldn't resist giving him a hat because for some reason it just looked so good on him
A basic shirt for sleep wear...
Some warm wool tights for winter nights...
A cute sailor outfit for party wear...
Swimwear...
Hot weather outfit! Happens to also be the first outfit I made for him too
Rainy weather outfit...
And finally, this very very cute and my absolute favourite cold weather outfit That is all!
(P.S If the photos are too big or too small please let me know The originals are about 1000x700 pixels but I thought it'd be a bit uncomfortable to scroll down if I didn't size them down since they're vertical.)
@DeafSimmer I love it when good overcomes evil! When will these guys realize they're no match for Hilda and Zelda. Love the screenshots, too.
The second posting on this same page (646) almost seems like more than the end of a chapter. As if it's the end of the story, for now? I enjoyed it even so. This story has been amazing and very creative.

“Really?” Thorne asked “You think we should go? You want to go to the hospital?”
“Yes, really,” Don answered. “Something feels different. The pain changed, and the doctor said to go to the hospital right away if that happened.”
“And you’re ok with me taking you?” Thorne asked. “After what I did earlier?”
“Well I’m not gonna walk there,” Don told him.
“And who’s going to feed me pizza when the doctor says I can’t have any?” Don asked him.
Spoiler - At Home
“And I’ll give you pizza right in front of that doctor. Let him try to stop me,” Thorne promised.
“You know I’ll get you anything you want, right? No matter what, I’ll get it for you, ok?” Thorne said.
“Yes,” Don answered, “I know, and I already told you, you can’t buy my trust Thorne. You have to earn it.”
“And I’m going to do it this time, no matter how long it takes. I’m not going to hurt you again,” Thorne answered.
“Hold on! I have to change my clothes,” Thorne told Don. “I’ll be as fast as I can, Ok?” And Thorne ran down to the laundry room.
“Yeah yeah,” Don said. “Be quick.”
How long can this take? Don thought to himself. Anytime Thorne…..
Thorne changed his clothes … Ok, let’s pick up the pace there Thorne, be ecstatic later, your boyfriend is waiting!
“Are you ready?” Thorne asked.
“Yeah, I’ve been ready,” Don said.
20 minutes later Don stepped out of the car in front of the hospital….“Ok, wait here for one minute, ok? You’ll be ok! I’m going to park the car,” Thorne yelled to Don as he sped away.
“Don? Is that the doctor? Shouldn’t he be inside? Washing his hands or something?” Thorne asked Don.
“Yes, good afternoon,” Thorne said, pleasantly. “My boyfriend is in labor, and he needs to be admitted right away.”
“There will be a short wait,” the receptionist answered. “The nurse stepped away for a moment.”
“She’ll have to check his vitals before we know if it’s an emergency or not,” she told Thorne.
“Maybe you didn’t hear me correctly,” Thorne said to her. “I said my Boyfriend is in labor, as in, he’s a male. We need a doctor immediately!”
“Thorne? Thorne it hurts, and I already have my hospital gown on. Obviously it’s an emergency.” Don told Thorne.
“I’ll find the nurse myself!” Thorne shouted, and off he ran!
The nurse has to be somewhere! Thorne was exasperated.
Maybe down this way? Thorne kept searching.
“Oh my God Thorne,” Don said. “Let’s go.”
“Oh! You’re here! They let you in!” Thorne noticed Don.
“Thorne? I don’t like this,” Don was sad.
(And look here! The doctor is @RedDestiny92 ‘s Richard!) “He better have washed his hands,” Thorne muttered.
“Thorne?” Don said. “It’s cold, I don’t like it.”
“Don! Don, are you ok?”
“No, of course I’m not ok,” Don answered. “I’m a man, and I’m having a baby, it’s not really an ok-ish kind of thing.”
Spoiler - In the birthing room
Well, Thorne may have been right about that …..
“I saw that,” Thorne said. “You know I saw that, right?”
Don …. is more dazed than usual
“I’m watching you ….”
Don is uncomfortable. Don breaks the 4th wall. “Hey, peeps,” he says. “I hope you’re enjoying this, ‘cause I’m not.”
“I’m still watching you,” says Thorne.
Then …. through the miracle that is Sim’s technology, Dr. Richard Coleman transfers the baby to the bassinet, while the baby is already in the bassinet! No, it's not twins!
And Thorne is happy …. Very happy.
Is Don happy? Well, he’s happy to be out of that monstrosity of a machine.
But is he truly happy? ….. “Thorne? Didn’t we just talk about this? You know, page 622 in the Forum, the ‘What happened in your game today?’ thread. Remember? It’s My baby. Does that ring any bells?”
“Oh never mind, now I’m in my athletic wear, I’m going to go walk on the medical testing treadmill for a while. Calm my nerves, and walk off this baby bump.”
“Check please? We’d like to go.”
“Well, the baby's gone, that’s kinda trippy.”
“Don, Sweetheart, you did it! It’s over. I love you, I really do. Let’s go home, ok?”
“Oh look Thorne! She’s already here! Awesome!”
“I’ve been waiting for you for such a long time, my little angel. You just can’t even imagine.”
Spoiler - Home Again
“Everything’s going to be fine now. Don’t worry, Papa's’s got ya.”
“Hi my darling baby. You’re doing fine, aren’t you?”
“Your papa thinks I’m gonna mess this up. He doesn’t trust Daddy at all, no, not a bit.”
“But we’ll show him, ok? You, me, and your Papa, we’re going to be great together.”
“Daddy is gonna take care of both of you, ok? I’m gonna be so careful. I’ll never hurt you two, I promise.”
Daddy Thorne and Papa Don are proud to introduce you to their little sunshine! Kalila Aria Lothario-Bailey (kah-LEE-lah -Beloved) (AR r ee uh -Song)

@Dust_Bunny2010
LOL "There are slots? I've been playing this game all wrong." Trust me, that's exactly how I felt when somebody in this thread told me about it LOL. I think CAS should do a better job of telling people they exist 😅
The story was great and when I have time I will comment on it much better. It was cute to see her flirting a little. It's not something she normally does LOL.
And I saw where you said you're having trouble doing updates, I guess you can only do what you can do right? It always amazes me when people say that they are tired of playing Sims. I would seriously play/build/screenshot/write Simlit 16 hours a day if I could get away with it, sadly I can't.
@RedDestiny92
I just love this Bob and Don update. Eliza sure gives him a hard time about all of his exes, 🤣 sounds like he deserves it though. 😅
I'm glad that Bob finally talked things out with Don
And yes handsome Hanson is handsome 😂 Wanted on a galactic scale!
However, when you are through skilling up those kids in those houses I want to see a wedding! I want to hear a promise from you! 😂
This new story with Caleb and the roommate is super cute. How fun to have them bond over designer clothing that is related to a show they both love. Wow did they have a good conversation topic. It's good that he realized he needed to do stuff with her or he would just end up sitting alone in his room. Good job to Lilith on that one!
Poor Brant and Brent. When it rains it pours right?
@Tixyen
What a cute update this is! So much Rainbow everywhere. I love really getting to know her personality as a little girl and not a toddler. Despite hardships in her life she is completely and utterly positive and that is amazing to see.
I'm glad everybody is doing so well with their jobs and their schooling. I hope things continue like this, and yes it's pretty ironic that they were eating pizza and McKenna was out delivering it LOL.
@Svineprutter
I don't know if I'm going to catch all of your little notes but I will try. I just love this one with Karla and Don at your nightclub. That's crazy, how did they get that green bar up so quickly? Had they known each other before this?
Oh! I loved this one when you show the picture of Baby after she just caught a frog. I'm amazed that she was even willing to do it with the squeamish trait 😅
And okay, I did not know there was a ghost cheat LOL but apparently it's not foolproof if she can't get the discount at ghost night 😂😉
@Daravi
Oh okay, I have always wished we had more of the larger lots also.
I saw where you said you uploaded the lot. I have to go in my game and see if I can download it, my gallery wasn't working at all yesterday, it was quite annoying.
the picture of the wife doing the facepalm is the best. I don't get those very often 😅
@sims_premade
I love your J Huntington family. His son really looks like him, and he himself looks wonderful! Well, he always does LOL April is just beautiful, and it's nice to see that J and Zoe have gotten back together! they are very cute together
@March306
Not sure if I'll catch all of your updates either, but right now I'm looking at the hundred babies. I see Darrel Charm's son Freddy is a young adult now, right? And he still has those beautiful purple eyes. Looks like he has Darrel's nose too.
LOL bye Colton!
And Geri is a beautiful teenage girl! It will be fun to see if those freckles keep going in this challenge
Oh! okay, that's really cool that you're going to make a club with Dash's kids and your kids! what a great idea!
And yeah, I can see the resemblance between Benedict and his daughter.
I understand why Patrick and Juniper don't have a lot of money. I hope that they are high-level in gardening and painting if that's their only way to get money lol. And my goodness, Who would know that MCCC would decide to pull that triplet thing just because a space opened up in the household? 😂 Evil MCCC
@Nushnushganay
LMAO I'm glad your hubs was there to talk you out of doing all the evil bad nasties to your little cast.
Looks like you had fun in your other saves anyway.
And I see Gordon is in this save also, watching his wife decide that Devin is the one for her LOL, maybe he deserved it for being such a you know what in the other save and tricking his brother like that 😅
@DarkAngel1994
Okay, I'm going to talk about that last post that was so amazing! I hadn't realized that it was Trinity that had come back, I missed the fact that she had left Atlas's body. I'm not surprised, I knew he would have been fighting back internally!
But she bit off more than she could chew in trying to challenge him.
What would you have done if she had won the duel? I'm so glad that he did. And what a weird thing that she dissolved/combusted like that 😳 I love it, but it's still weird. 😂
LOL at Grim, "that's not in my job description"
Well it needs to be in your job description this time Mr. Grim! 🤣
I sure was hoping that one of them was a strong enough spellcaster to at least bring Don back for poor Caleb. I mean, I love Don, so I wanted him back anyway but Caleb was pregnant and that was awful 🥺
And it was really nice of Dylan to insist that Atlas try to bring Logan back too. I see he feels strongly about promises.
And what a cute ending, Sophia give him a big hug, and then yells at him LOL
Anyway, it was all wonderful, so dramatic and all the pictures were soooo beautiful. Your Sims always look amazing with all their custom content. You do such a great job with them!
I love how everybody tried to comfort Caleb, but then Don was there and everything was fine.
There are still good people that have died, but I guess you can't bring everybody back. I'm just glad he could do the two people that he did, and now Ivy and Trinity are both gone for good, I hope! 😅
The pictures of Halloween are just adorable! ❤️ And that's exactly how their kids would act 🤣
@ryttu3k
I'll have to go and check out the Simsta update, that sounds fun! 😊
And Hugo looks pretty cool like that! I've not seen him exploring that aspect of his life.
That's cool that Geoffrey Landgraab has taken over care of Max!
The girl's apartment is still super cute! Even with the addition of another bed, it's still darling, and doesn't look cramped at all. I'm glad that Luna has a nice place to live and good friends to be with 😊
@Becka28
Happy Anniversary! I'm so glad that you were brave and took that big step a year ago!
It has always been wonderful watching your stories develop, and reading the amazing updates with your awesome sense of humor. So thank you to you for being the wonderful person that you are calling us ❤️😊
@ParmaViolet87
Oh my gosh, if that happened in my game I think I would not be able to stop laughing either 😅🤣
@paigepurple
It's really nice when there are things on the gallery that are fully base game. I will try to remember to check your stuff out!
@kwanzaabot
I was in Williamsburg about 12 years ago, and happened to see the jail where Blackbeard was imprisoned for quite a while.
I can't remember the story completely clearly, but it is possible that he was executed right from that jail. Don't quote me though, LOL I'm just trying to remember something from 12 years ago
Have you ever heard the story about how his body supposedly swam around the boat three times without its head? 😯
LOL I like all of your inspirations for your pirates, but I especially like "Bones is just a skeleton"
Don't you know that Bones is much more than a skeleton? "I'm a doctor Jim! Not a skeleton!" 😅
Okay, sorry, I didn't quite get to everybody but at least I made a dent. I will be back tomorrow to try to completely catch up 😊

Then I rotated to the squeamish Rohan Elderberry and, as he was enjoying lunch in Larry's Lagoon, guess what happened? An elder nearby croaked it!
Poor Rohan dashed to the toilet to be sick!
Wait, Don was pregant? In which chapter was this happened? I have to read this again.
@Svineprutter thank you! The Villareal kids are really interesting, given their upbringing with Jacques. I do need to have Bjorn give Sofia the update on what happened earlier (short version, villains vs secret agents), or at least have it mentioned behind the scenes.
@Nushnushganay that's really neat. And yeah, organic relationships are fun - I do engineer a lot of mine based on storytelling, but when Caleb and Johnny first got together they would do so many autonomous romantic interactions their pink bar just skyrocketed.
@DeafSimmer uh oh, the villains are close behind them. The kids better watch out, they seem pretty distracted!
@AlwaysAsking yeah, seriously. There are still a lot of cultures (particularly conservative/religious ones) where it's still super frowned upon, unfortunately, but I would rather a society where divorce is common instead of a society where unhappy marriages and abuse is common!
No more interactions between those two, alas ...Plenty of other interactions, but not between those two! And yeah, uh, the small house with the level 9 flirty painting, um, isn't actually necessary XD Enjoy the update below! And yeah, the apartment is a pretty decent size. Plenty of breathing room for the three of them, and time for Luna to stay somewhere supportive!
Poor Don, that looked distinctly uncomfortable! I did laugh out loud at the breaking the fourth wall, though! "Thorne? Didn't we just talk about this? You know, page 622 in the Forum, the 'What happened in your game today?' thread. Remember? It’s My baby. Does that ring any bells?" Welcome to the world, Kalila Aria!
@Ellupelluellu ooh, that'd certainly make things interesting XD But yeah, there are plenty other things to keep the housemates miserable without adding thirst / being drank from! And Sims are rubbish at self-care, really. Morgyn almost starved today, seriously.
A lovely wedding! I really dig the whole goth aesthetic. Okay, do those gloves come with the mixologist outfit or is that just Caleb being extra? XD Aww, I love all the 'where are they now?' kind of shots! W o w, Darling needs to chill XD Double red with Morgan, man! For the traits, yeah, can confirm Wolfgang got the family one, Malcolm got loner, Darling got hot-headed, Sofia - Sofia got evil?! Cass got geek, Hugo got klepto oh jeez, and Morgan got glutton (and married to a foodie, that's lowkey hilarious)!
@RedDestiny92 thanks! I want to add some more clutter for Luna, but for now, she's got a comfortable place to stay.
Man, Caleb looks deeply unimpressed at the attempted matchmaking XD Bonding over fashion and media, that's pretty sweet. Ohh, Lilith Pleasant? Thought I recognised her face! Heh, she's going to get a surprise when she finds out his teeth aren't filed! Oh wow, good luck, Heckings XD
@Dust_Bunny2010 *hastily shoves giant list of carb-heavy recipes* Cold fruit stuff, huh... it's mostly smoothies and sorbets coming to mind. I can send you some favourite smoothie combos, if you want!
And the theorising is pretty fun ;D I look forward to it all developing!
Time for Big Brother 2020 - Get Together edition! Week 1, days 3-5!
Anyway. Back to the house! Since the Vatores going on their slight rampage wasn't actually meant to be happen, I cancelled out Diego and Cass's negative moodlets from being attacked. Caleb rides out the last of his tension on his favourite pool float.
Cass is A-OK again!
And Lilith is full of energy, as usual.
Morgyn honey I can't help but feel this is an act of supreme futility.
Caleb is still in the pool, but at least he's not sulking any more!
Lilith chooses a spectacularly inappropriate area to do sit-ups. Just be glad that towel texture is like that!
Everyone goes to bed. Well, most people go to bed. Cass goes to pool float.
Bit more direction. I prompted Morgyn to plant an apple (no one had touched the seeds), and, very obligingly, they planted everything else too!
Don takes the opportunity to come over and flirt.
Astonishingly, Morgyn happily flirts back! I imagine Don is surprised but pretty pleased?
What a good boy
Caleb looks unsure about his sister chatting with the evil dude.
Morgyn, having stayed up literally all night, finally gets into the low reds with their energy. Do they go to bed? Nope! They climb into the hot tub and fall asleep there!
It's okay, he doesn't bite now.
Caleb discovers the Diary Room. I actually thought he was talking to the camera but it turned out Lilith was just offscreen.
So I got this alert and... um... well, I can't actually share caps, so here are some caps of the aftermath. Despite the fact that she got a positive moodlet off it, I'm not sure how impressed Cass was.
Crying it out in the closet. I think it's fair to say she has regrets?
So this conversation between Johnny and Malcolm actually started pleasant but before I could grab a cap of it they started yelling at each other.
Morgyn has discovered the bed! Alas, they have yet to discover this thing called 'sleeping under the blankets'.
Good boy continues to be good
I have no idea what Malcolm and Don were talking about but they were doing it VERY ENTHUSIASTICALLY!
Morgyn this is still not a bed.
Adorable sibling interactions. Lilith naturally gets Energised from her Active trait, and Caleb got Energised just by chatting with her!
They're super cute and put Johnny and Malcolm to shame.
"Are you kidding. Why do so many people think this is a bed. This is a hot tub, it is not a bed!"
"Oh wait you're hot. Carry on."
Cass is like, "Aww, you're sweet! I'm going to bed. Alone."
Another good boy.
Morgyn has discovered sleeping in a bed!!!!
It's 3 AM and the vampires are out and about and... playing basketball. Totally normal creature-of-the-night activities.
Speaking of creature-of-the-night activities... Cass looks like she enjoyed this one a bit more than her earlier, uh, activities with Don! The hot tub: still not a bed, but pretty fun nonetheless.
Johnny is like, "Okay look you of all people actually have no room to judge what constitutes a normal breakfast okay?!"
Popcorn: breakfast of champions.
"HECC."
Okay, here starts this chain of everyone's hygiene dropping around the same time and a chain of embarrassment. Diego walks in on Malcolm. Diego is amused. Morgyn walks in to wash the dishes, because what is a kitchen sink.
Sink breaks. Morgyn looks like they're considering forbidden words again.
Diego decides to shower. Lilith immediately walks in. Diego looks like he tried to salvage things with a, "Like what you see? ;D" and Lilith has just laughed.
Diego walks out. Morgyn walks back in. Lilith and Morgyn go off into one of the toilet stalls. Johnny and Cass walk in. Johnny and Cass start showering. "So are you aggressively ignoring the noises coming from that stall?" "Yes. Yes I am."
Morgyn cheerfully washes up after their activities with Lilith...
...and Lilith wanders out, looking extraordinarily pleased with herself.
Meanwhile, at the pool...
...Caleb attempts to deathglare whoever just splashed him into submission.
Diego doesn't think Malcolm is looking too good.
He's actually not doing so crash-hot himself! Malcolm is dazed and dizzy, Diego is now running a fever, and Morgyn is all stuffed up...
...although that still doesn't stop Lilith giving them the eye as they cross each other's paths in the kitchen ;D What is social distancing?
Johnny continues to eat popcorn and be quietly pleased he's not part of the Disaster Squad so far. Drama-free life, baby!
Ahhh, drama.
@DeafSimmer I see that the follow-up is just what I was anticipating. Can't wait to see which side wins.
http://www.getfreeebooks.com/star-trek-original-series-fan-fiction-trilogy/
I hope so too.
So, apparently, Blogger has a limit to how many images you can post on a blog post. Hooray(!)
I have loved the stars too truly to be fearful of the night.
Ha'aheo, e hoʻomau i kō kāua aloha, kau a kau.
@Svineprutter - I used the Pose Player for the poses and tried to find the right ones for their reaction.
@ryttu3k - There wasn't that much costume choices, especially for the kids.
Simba will always be the star...
@AlwaysAsking - Her death was quite...something. Never happened to any of my spellcasters before, so it's kinda funny that she's the first to die like that. Though I think you have a 50/50 chance of surviving it???
I had Atlas practice Untamed magic (I think it was) to learn a new spell, and luckily he learned the Dedeathify spell. I know how it is used, but never tried it out.
Thank you so much!
Don't worry, Ivy and Trinity won't be coming back. That'll be the last time you'll be seeing them.
[The Aftermath]
Everything went back to normal after the Red Blood Moon.
Although many lives had been lost, they were not forgotten. Well...some of them.
Andromeda told Ioana what happened to her father and stood by as Ioana was comforted by her husband as she wept.
Since there was no one to take the role as the leader of Forgotten Hollow, Vlad Bloodvein became the leader with his wife by side. He was saddened by the loss of his good friend, but knew that Vladislaus' death wasn't in vain.
Once the time comes, Lilith will soon be the next leader of Forgotten Hollow. Their daughter, Lilith, and her wife, Inna, moved in.
Morgyn came back home to Glimmerbrook, not before visiting to the doctor for a check-up and getting good news, and was greeted by their and Seth's daughter, Elan.
Morgyn told Seth the good news he got at the doctors: they are expecting another child! How after what happened to them when Trinity/Atlas punched them in the stomach? Not sure.
Morgyn isn't the only one who's expecting.
L. received good news that she is pregnant, and Simeon was excited to be the father of their lil' witch/wizard.
Don and Caleb finally got back together after escaping death many times before. It wasn't the first time they nearly lost each other. Don almost lost Caleb when he was murdered by a lady at the karaoke bar, thankfully the Grim Reaper listened at that time.
Now, with the baby on the way, they can finally relax with nothing to worry about.

Lorelai´s dress is a cc recolor of a dress from Get Together. I don´t know if you have heard of this website maxismatchccworld.tumblr.com , but it´s a heavensent when it comes to non-alpha cc. Lorelai is a lot like her mom (they literally have 2 traits in common: loves outdoors and stoic), though she is friendlier and more outgoing than Evita. But not friendly and outgoing enough to put up with the twins, their moods and endless chatter 24/7.
Loved your Christmas update! I can never get holidays right myself, everyone always ends up wandering off to different direction, try to take good screenshots like this. Maybe I should start building smaller houses
@ryttu3k
I have noticed that vampires would autonomously use the plasma packs you can buy with the computer, but not plasma fruits or the packs made from fish and frogs. Another feature the developers failed to tune properly. Some time ago, I wanted one of my sims to have a vampire roommate, but had to abandon the thought and make him playable because of that, as I did not want him to accidentally drain anyone.
I can´t express how much I love your BB updates! You may have given me an idea what to do to fix the lack of romance in Luna´s life.
Out of curiosity - how many different saves have you going on?
@AlwaysAsking
A hint: Laena´s second passion is a "who", not "what".
You are not the only one who would love to see the dynamics between Joaquin, L and Sergio in action. Why I avoid taking a look at it is mainly because I am a little afraid of what I may find. Enraged vampires havwe a bad habit of drinking uncontrollably, which, with mods, is deadly. So yeah, my main concern is that were I to load their household, someone would walk in on someone and people will die. And who would then end up raising baby Tiana? Her soon-to-be teenage sister Mariana.
I have a confession to make: it took me a minute or two to recall who the heck Nico is (I named all of Don´s 100+ kids myself, I remember the older ones but I gave up after 70 or so) But now that I do, I am going to add him too. Lets just hope that he won´t end up marrrying one of his brothers or sisters he is no longer related to. So far, I have added Nadia (Nancy Landgraab´s daughter, in this save she is her sister), Parker (Pierce Delgarato´s son, this save´s Pierce is still a child and has no relation to him), Emmanuel (Don´s grandson) and Christine (Cassandra Goth´s daughter, has no relation to her in this save), but I will be adding more. They are dear to me, so I take the time to give everyone a home and a job.
I am about 90% sure that the guy in the last screenshot is Sergio´s son, but I can´t recall his name either. I used to have notes about everyone, but now I can´t find those either.
Concerning Don and Thorne: I still think Thorne is an illegitimate son of a rat fit to feed the sharks, though you are doing good job with portraying him as somewhat redeemable. Please freshen my memory - is Don aware of the hormone theraphy Thorne made him go through without his consent in order to make him able to concieve? Because for me, messing with your partner´s health is a huge red flag ands a potentioal court case.
There will be an actual update soon, I promise! Stay sane and safe!
Trailer is based on someone else's build but I am modifying it completely on the inside and quite heavily on the outside.
Speaking of, btw... where are those Air Condition pieces used outside Zest's trailer in the build menu? I can't find them...
Behr Munch family
We brought Karl & Lisbeth to the romance festival to have some fun.
What an outfit aunt Elina Vera Lothario wore tonight!
Lucas & I wanted to celebrate our love for each other by renewing our weddingvows.
At that moment we discovered we are expecting our 3rd child at the end our first term in uni.
Lucas teached Karl basic needs.
While Lisbeth & ! talked about colors in the living room.
Behr Munch family spent time on the library, so Lucas & Anna could improve skills for their degree.
It was a nice and sunny playtime on the beach for Karl & Lisbeth.
Lucas & I discussed what we need to buy for our family right now. Since we are both students, we have to be careful with what we spend our money on.
Lucas started to write on his first book on the new computer.
I started to read the new book about photography.
We are excited to go to our first classes tomorrow at Ubrite.

@AlwaysAsking Just noticed your Don and Thorne update! Haha poor Don and Thorne dealing with a typical The Sims 4 weird hospital delivery LOL "He should wash his hands" LOL Very much so with the Covid-19 right now though hopefully that's not a thing in TS4. I love the name of his daughter. I'm looking forward to more chapters hopefully some with Danni and Mary-Alice and more of Don and Thorne trying to raise a baby.
Not much happened so far.The mom is a free lance photographer and the for the dad I am using a new custom career I found on MTS (ninja career. I wanted to try it out). I mainly spend most of my time setting everything up and testing out new cc. I want my sims to look perfect lol. I gave some premades a make over. It takes time so I decided to save the world so I don't have to keep starting over each time I start a new game.
Edit-Oh, I just remembered a few things. The grandma living with the family died and I changed Darling Walsh to be Miko's sister as it honestly made no sense for a random teen living with two adults that are unrelated and not together even. I gave the backstory that their parents moved to another town (wanting to retire) and (I can't remember the new name I gave to Darling) didn't want to leave the city and Miko invited her sister to move in so she could still stay in the city with her friends. The parents were a bit hesitant at first; but decided it was o.k. since Miko can care for herself and would be a good influence.
Normally I don't make huge changes to premade sims; but it just bothered me as it made no sense. If Darling was an adult, I would of just mostly left her as she is beside give a different hairstyle and outfit.
Lets make this a reality!
Comes second week and my roommate dies laughing in the restroom.
Elric being a generous vampire he is saves her with a death flower, everything is dandy.
Not one minute later...yep, you guessed it. My roommate perishes AGAIN.
Grim and the girl proceed to watch some TV...
...as MCCC informs me that Bella Goth has gotten a second divorce.
The Sims.
Thank you!
@ryttu3k Yeah... But he always ends up happy nonetheless I realised I don't have that much main characters so it'll probably go by quickly XD Still very fun!
Thank you!
@ChuChuExpress @RedDestiny92 thank you for the lovely comments!
@AlwaysAsking He absolutely is! Yes, it could've all ended very badly That would've been wonderful! He'd be just like my dad then. Sadly, not the case Obviously That could be fun! Maybe in forms of flashbacks. You probably know how much I love flashbacks
Thank you!
GOOD NEWS! My Mac is fixed. Yay So maybe I'll finish the next update by the end of the week! Anyway, I didn't have any access to the internet this past week so I couldn't post anything But I created a few toddlers I'll be uploading them every single day! Today's toddler is... Steve!
Life and personality: Steve grew up in a little village near Windenburg. There were no cars, no cellphones, sometimes even no electricity. The people were kind and simple, grew crops and caught fish. But they were very closed off. They had a strong bond in their community but didn't accept any outsiders.
Steve was an only child. He lived with his parents and their parents in a small house. He grew up in a very safe and happy environment. He could wander anywhere he wanted, take anything he wanted and talk to anyone he wanted. Little Steve knew everyone and everyone knew him.
Every day for Stevie was the same. He woke up, went to school, helped his parents with the farm, played with friends till supper time, went to bed and did the same thing the very next day. On Sundays they visited the church, on Wednesdays they invited over guests. Nothing exciting or special ever happened in the village and Steve barely knew anything outside of it. He grew up sheltered, but loved and cared for. And thanks to that, even though life hit Steve pretty hard on the head later on, he managed to adjust to the drastic changes his life made rather quickly.
I gave him the charmer trait because he was such a sweet toddler
Facial features: I mean... it's Steve. He's always adorable! Toddler, child, adults - doesn't matter, he'll always be my smol bean who rocks any haircut Besides the eyebrows which I always adjust, I haven't changed a thing in him.
Clothes: Steve was pretty much a doll for his parents. He had a ton of cute outfits and his grandma would constantly knit or sew him something new For his everyday outfit I gave him a cute little floral outfit because Steve went floral ever since the day he was born
More under the cut:
For the formal outfit, Steve wears a cute traditional outfit with a bowtie. I also couldn't resist giving him a hat because for some reason it just looked so good on him
A basic shirt for sleep wear...
Some warm wool tights for winter nights...
A cute sailor outfit for party wear...
Swimwear...
Hot weather outfit! Happens to also be the first outfit I made for him too
Rainy weather outfit...
And finally, this very very cute and my absolute favourite cold weather outfit That is all!
(P.S If the photos are too big or too small please let me know The originals are about 1000x700 pixels but I thought it'd be a bit uncomfortable to scroll down if I didn't size them down since they're vertical.)
Roddy went collecting:
And then he, Wendy and Benjamin went into the portal:
Oh my....
Roddy's doing some more collecting:
RoddyCam, ACTIVE!
A gorgeous sunset!
Roddy's also been collecting posters:
He met up with Jessica Lacey, and they gave each other a big hug and a kiss on the cheek:
And Roddy had a chat with his sweetheart:
After a while of chatting, Roddy said goodbye to Jessica Lacey and took in the view:
Roddy then set off for his next destination.
She then gave Roddy a big loving smooch on his cheek:
Then Carol changed into one of her cold weather outfits and gave Roddy several big smooches on his face:
Roddy went bright red and giggled. Carol had covered his face in big, shiny, bright pink lipstick smooches:
Roddy used one of his makeup removal wipes:
Carol then smiled and gave Roddy a big loving hug:
After a while of chatting, Roddy went to his next destination, in which he did some collecting:
Afterwards, Roddy went back home. Benjamin tended to his bees:
Shine fed her cowplant:
And then she gave it some attention:
What the!?
@Koteyka, page 646.
Looking dapper, Lil' Steve!
Currently, I'm listening to Heart UK. It's actually helping me to keep happy. And Blogger's behaving now!
The second posting on this same page (646) almost seems like more than the end of a chapter. As if it's the end of the story, for now? I enjoyed it even so. This story has been amazing and very creative.
