The title always makes me laugh, remembering Peter Sellers, in the movie 'Being There', say to Shirley MacLaine "I like to watch" ! :D Well I must admit I Do like watching my sims, just to see what they do! I usually only direct them to help fulfill wishes, although sometimes I admit to doing this creatively! haha
So my family, how did it begin? Starting in Moonlight Falls with Dante, Violet, and Argus, it was plain so see that Violet and Argus were getting to be an item. Dante was best friends with Belinda Crumplebottom, and they decided to move in together to my favorite house. (actually, the only house I like here!)
Belinda wanted a child with Dante, and it pained him to let her down as he felt he was too young, and he wanted a more traditional family when he matured. He loved Belinda as friend, and even though she was so kind and lovely personality, she was not 'the One' for him.
Belinda was swept off her feet by Don Lothario, they fell in love and married. When ever he would scare her she would retaliate by casting a spell on him! :D They enjoyed each other immensely! She has not had a child with Don so far though, she thinks an evil father would be, well, evil!
Moving Forward : Dante
Dante met a beautiful Faery named Tulip. https://i.imgur.com/ohy9LdF.jpg https://i.imgur.com/DbwX0n2.jpg The attraction was instant, and soon they fell in love. The more he was with her, the more he became convinced she was the One! And so, he convinced her to marry him. I say 'convinced' because She was a bit afraid that he was a Vampire. But, she did love him and she did say Yes! Dante was in heaven! He never drank from her, he only drank plasma orange juice. Their marriage was loving and solid, and then Dante wanted a child.
Tulip always dreamed of babies, but would never get the wish for it. The Watcher (me) became convinced she was worried that Dante might bite the baby! :o One day as they were on a date, Dante started spamming me with wishes to turn Tulip! Even though I usually fulfill wishes, I kept clicking his wishes off. He Spammed me 7 times in half an hour! He wanted desperately to turn her! mmm maybe Dante knows something the Watcher does not! I decided to let him fulfill this wish! I wanted to know! For Science!
"Are you sure, my love?" And Dante slips her a Potent Cure Potion, in case she wants to change her mind. "Yes, Dante, I'm sure." her voice was so enchanting, sounding like Elvan wind chimes to his ear. https://i.imgur.com/UjXBOBp.jpg https://i.imgur.com/QWYWqC9.jpg https://i.imgur.com/TY0g9G7.jpg https://i.imgur.com/jInS2mv.jpg and it was done! https://i.imgur.com/gueIUV4.jpg
A few days later, Tulip went through the transformation! https://i.imgur.com/8L08Zbs.jpg https://i.imgur.com/l6bKgDp.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ceIkxDR.jpg https://i.imgur.com/XaB1tvk.jpg
And she got the wish to have a baby with Dante only a few minutes later! In fact she got many baby wishes! How did Dante know this would happen? I am so glad he told me with his thought bubbles and spammed wishes!
They are marvelous parents, there isn't a more devoted father, in fact Dante loves all babies & kids! 1st child Tula then and now https://i.imgur.com/NJgOfIF.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ATwmLul.jpg https://i.imgur.com/iHYfaJT.jpg https://i.imgur.com/8yUWYdD.jpg
Tula's boyfriend Tristan--they live across the street in the family's other property, a 'Teen house', with a Chaperone https://i.imgur.com/ThqGhiA.jpg https://i.imgur.com/HmRZ4H7.jpg
@bekkasan Right! I was wondering if the kids might want to be Fae too, to be more like Hanae! I will have to see! Or they might even watch Joe, playing with magic, and want to become a witch!
LOL those burlap clothes are the Worse! Now wonder if those uncomfortable itchy were the reason all the sims in the political career ran away! :D
I'm so glad you like Youngman without glasses! oh well! your Victor has the sexy glasses, like Billy Caspian, so I don't know if you want them off, makes them look so sexy and smart! I have Billy keep glasses for everyday and career and formal but not for sleep, sports or swimming (I think! I meant to, but my follow through is many times lacking!)
No I aged the correct teens! They got the immediate wish to marry too! Henny and Faith were already acting like adults! So are Joe and Mary, btw! the only ones who still seem youngish acting are Patty and Zack! And OMG Fabian and Jed are wayyyyy too immature and out of line to be YA! If the height thing is a problem I have another plan! ;) But I tell ya, I do Not want to go to Cabana's house and see the jealous and accusatory Look ? that Fawn will give me, when she finds out she was again overlooked for her turn at aging up! LOL
Yes Now I have room in Youngman's house finally! I hope I remember this, and that I really Don't like so many in a house and Stop doing it! :D If you see me try it again please send the guys in white uniforms with the straight jackets!---Right! I don't really have that many needed helpful mods for such a thing! so I need to Stop it! :D
Thank you! and ?? I Again forgot to save each household! I am going to have to put a sticky note right on my Eye I guess!
Thank you! I am so glad you enjoyed the update! I hope I put in enough spoilers to not make the page lag! It was even longer but when I had to start over I could delete a bunch of shenanigans I was so mad that had happened the first time! LOL But now that it didn't happen so I am going with that! :D
@Silverofdreams30 Thank you! It was a nice aging up for cutie pie Henny, I had seen him for so long as a classmate of other teens, so it is great for me to see him as a resident in the town and get to age him up!
Also it makes me extra happy for you to say he is handsome because you are the master of making handsome guys! :) Faith and Henny are cute together!
Haha I like the beginning dating stages too! lots of smooching and all their cute expression are my favorite!
Oh hahaha yes I can see how it can old! That is one of the reasons I left Dante's house when I did, because that is ALL they ever wanted to do and it got boring! I hope when I go back it will be a little bit different, I do see them and they now do different activities so that is GOOD!
@divadoodle You could always turn some of the kids fae with a potion. Hanae might like that. She might prefer to stay a fairy rather than be a vampire like Youngman.
Your sims get promoted so fast! Congrats to both couples on their promotions. I hope Sunny and Rocky get new outfits! Those burlap jackets make me itch!
um, yummy! Youngman without his glasses! :love: Maybe I should consider removing my Victor's! Bye bye Nadia. Yep the adults are too busy adulting to take care of their children properly, and see that the maid is working and not boinking one of the teens!
omg...I'm on the floor in shock. You aged a teen and not the right ones!! Silly watcher! :smiley:
I love Youngman's new look. :heart: Did I already tell you that? I hope you took his dorky socks off too! Henny is so handsome!
Yeah, definitely in shock. You aged not one, but two teens! Faith is beautiful. lol, I know you got to make room but throwing the new YA out? LOL I was expecting a car too. Cute big, bungalow!
I move folks around all the time with my overstuffed households. Perhaps you don't have all the mods needed to move them. Sounds way to complicated and time consuming your way. Um, don't forget to save as after birthdays! They got a beautiful house! I enjoyed the update. It was very long but full of happenings!
Congrats to henry for aging up, he turned out looking similar to his cute teen self but now handsome. Faith and Henry are also cute, I have too few couples in my saves so don't see these smooches that much haha. I usually like the dating stages, but when they get more serious then I get bored and just let them be most of the time haha. Great update.
259 The Watcher Watches: Pendragon's ~~ Teen dates, age up and Move! Oh My!~~
Youngman and Hanae get out of work and both get a promotion! Hanae decides to go into the spy branch! She likes the different outfits! haha She also gets a baby wish! :o Sims never think! I have no clue how I am going to fanagle this at This time! so I write it her and Youngman's bio, for later! The house has 14 people right now! And Who knows if she even wants to be turned, But Youngman has that wish to turn her! hahaha They are happy with the promotions and Youngman wants to celebrate! Naturally! ;) https://i.imgur.com/DJ5FG39.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ahX8POT.jpg
Hang on! Glasses! "Oh yeah!" he says, realizing he doesn't need them any longer! Ahhh! that's better! https://i.imgur.com/yXybKB4.jpg
The kids are out of school and the popup tells me Mara is coming over with Henny! this will be great for Fabian, But it's almost like the game is pushing them together! Mama Watcher isn't ready for this! LOL Although she IS awfully cute sitting there in the school bus, next to Zack! Oh sorry Mara, you weren't quite materialized yet! "That's ok Watcher! Just try to be more careful next time!" https://i.imgur.com/pMJKM95.jpg https://i.imgur.com/05ruaDd.jpg
Mary, Zack, Mara. Henny and Patty. https://i.imgur.com/UaPxeyf.jpg
Rocky and Sunny also get promotions! The household is super rich now! Hanae (apparently having trouble to find the bed where Youngman is calling to her) is Very glad and proud of her baby sister! https://i.imgur.com/mtuA6Rr.jpg https://i.imgur.com/h2XlRgt.jpg https://i.imgur.com/UVQVIcC.jpg
Jed kisses his sweet crush, Nadia goodbye because it is time for his brother Fabian, to see if he can get a date with Mara for his wish fulfillment! "Bye Naida! that was a fun date today!" says Jed, kissing her little nose. " I hope we can go on another date sometime!" https://i.imgur.com/JWq8QJs.jpg https://i.imgur.com/wknKzuq.jpg https://i.imgur.com/KHJYUhM.jpg https://i.imgur.com/VmErsso.jpg
And Nadia is gone in a flash! uh-huh! Still no adults around when she is actually working, to be able to fire her, for goofing off having fun! :D https://i.imgur.com/fpBmHTn.jpg
"Oh boy! Look who is over at my house! Mara!" thinks Fabian! Maybe his day will start looking better after being rebuked by that cute control room worker! https://i.imgur.com/rQJFzwL.jpg
Mara tells him he is so smart! she heard about it at school that he had been interning as an Astronaut! https://i.imgur.com/E6ForLC.jpg
This puts Fabian over the moon and He asks her for a date immediately! Well you have to strike when the iron is hot! https://i.imgur.com/PHvilBQ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Mp8UUFJ.jpg
Mara says Yes and now Fabian is melted butter and has to stand there staring at her for the longest time! https://i.imgur.com/x2LL2Lk.jpg https://i.imgur.com/7eJfeb1.jpg
Mara closes her eyes to prepare for a great kiss. but... LOL https://i.imgur.com/GGbQxXr.jpg https://i.imgur.com/zIXMfuJ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/PKnHlgV.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Eyv6Twz.jpg https://i.imgur.com/baSfEfD.jpg https://i.imgur.com/gIjFCTD.jpg
LOL the big goof ball! https://i.imgur.com/HLcsSKl.jpg
"oh no, she is walking away! Why?" thinks Fabian. "Oh to talk to Patty, now I'll never get her attention back to me! Patty talks way too much!" thinks Fabian. https://i.imgur.com/bs85Q0m.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ZxOS2oz.jpg https://i.imgur.com/FPG57IA.jpg
LOL but Fabian seems to have a good interrupting type plan! And just cuts in! :D Patty is studying biology in school, so finds this fascinating! https://i.imgur.com/usoV5ol.jpg https://i.imgur.com/zw8opGK.jpg https://i.imgur.com/tghdAJz.jpg
Jed is working on his muscles and cardio. Being an athletic teen, he does this on his own! https://i.imgur.com/GYOb9pT.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Z6brZPJ.jpg
And Henny is making sure little Brook is entertained! then says "Brookie, Dad and Hanae will be home soon, so you better start on your homework!" Whew! Just in the nick of time! https://i.imgur.com/KBgQkFL.jpg https://i.imgur.com/XW86oZ4.jpg https://i.imgur.com/1F7djpm.jpg https://i.imgur.com/mezMbTP.jpg
Henny is smooching his gf Faith, he is in love with her! He is aging up today! He asked Faith when she is aging up, but she can't remember and neither can her brothers! She doesn't have her parents around to ask either! The love bugs are a bit worried because they don't want to have to resort or ear and nose kissing! I don't blame them! https://i.imgur.com/1dmkoBG.jpg https://i.imgur.com/gQcHXhf.jpg
"Jed! How did your intern day go, son?" ''It was really interesting Dad! I might want to be an astronaut when I age up!" "Well that would be fine! I can't wait to see what job you boys get to try tomorrow!" says Rocky. https://i.imgur.com/eNTJG6o.jpg https://i.imgur.com/A7JpjAk.jpg
Jed heads down stairs, there is something new! "aw I don't think it's for me, too bad. I bet this must be for Henny, he is the oldest." https://i.imgur.com/XlXUa0g.jpg
And Henny comes to see it too! "Is that for me, Watcher?" "Yes Henny." "Alright!!!" https://i.imgur.com/8IBCh3n.jpg https://i.imgur.com/rFhrjUy.jpg https://i.imgur.com/FiV6RXK.jpg
Everyone trickles in and is very happy for Henny's big 'B' day, and of course Cake! Henny is having a blast celebrating! He is so good natured! https://i.imgur.com/3v0WgKV.jpg https://i.imgur.com/OWqXBfC.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Zx9pxFW.jpg https://i.imgur.com/3r2ah5K.jpg
Youngman couldn't get through the crowd and had to go outside and come in through the back door to get a good place to celebrate his #1 son age up! https://i.imgur.com/cugPVDd.jpg https://i.imgur.com/BgIXJHs.jpg https://i.imgur.com/nYUEnO1.jpg
The birthday magic begins! I keep taking pics that have koo-koo eyes on Rocky and Sunny! LOL Is the flash bothering them? https://i.imgur.com/fvnh3bF.jpg https://i.imgur.com/CvoHNuj.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ePNYY50.jpg
Henny is happy how he looks, and laughs, enjoying the moment! Nice lookin guy! https://i.imgur.com/St5ZRUu.jpg https://i.imgur.com/jNowY1Z.jpg
Every one slowly gets their cake, Henny finishes eating quickly and wants to celebrate, just like his dear old Dad likes to celebrate wonderful moments! Also he is curious to see if it will be awkward now, with the age difference, with his dearest Faith! https://i.imgur.com/7FXqOQC.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Rzo1nXU.jpg
"Hurry up Faith, why are you being a slowpoke?!" Henny laughs, that she is taking her time! But then he runs out side! "Where is he going?" wonders Faith and she runs out after him. Oh its's the sprinklers! "Um Henny...I feel ... strange!" says Faith. https://i.imgur.com/Pa23xKr.jpg https://i.imgur.com/o8PsKkW.jpg https://i.imgur.com/dZtI9Gw.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Bg8rk7p.jpg
wheeeeee! Henny is so excited they will be the same age and height! https://i.imgur.com/9w4vRnX.jpg https://i.imgur.com/u6eVAXr.jpg https://i.imgur.com/pVRyD64.jpg https://i.imgur.com/JvYbIDc.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ZlvS5dv.jpg https://i.imgur.com/bgmdq96.jpg
"Wow! Faith!" Henny can't believe his eyes! He is stunned! and Happy! https://i.imgur.com/Sc6usHn.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Biu6f04.jpg https://i.imgur.com/f8E9vv7.jpg
"Sul sul, pretty lady!" Henny says, making Faith laugh! She thinks he is the cutest! https://i.imgur.com/cv6kGND.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ukvJIM3.jpg https://i.imgur.com/c2Mv1Kj.jpg
Youngman comes out to hug his first born. Happy birthday Henny! Hanae and I got you something." And Youngman slips some keys into Henny's hand. No, not to a car. To the little beach house they had acquired across the street! "Dad! Are you serious?" Henny can't believe his eyes! https://i.imgur.com/iOwql0T.jpg https://i.imgur.com/jvVWdku.jpg
"Well sure son, we know you and Faith want a bit of privacy, to figure out your lives, and jobs, and our family might be growing one of these days too!" says Youngman. "Aw Dad!!!" https://i.imgur.com/854xAme.jpg https://i.imgur.com/qRfzC1m.jpg https://i.imgur.com/wtU9zgj.jpg
'Lets go check it out, hon!" says Henny and off they run across the street! It's a sweet little beach bungalow, 2 bedrooms, right across the street, so Dad is right here if they need any advice! Or if Brookie wants to talk with Henny! https://i.imgur.com/qVgG9YK.jpg https://i.imgur.com/A6iOTq4.jpg https://i.imgur.com/CuI56ja.jpg https://i.imgur.com/6O8DDqU.jpg https://i.imgur.com/0yblcak.jpg
The sweethearts can't help but want to look at the bedrooms. I love these two together! <3 https://i.imgur.com/M0rKsDN.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ZEkMvdL.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Bzzd9Fb.jpg
:o Then Watcher couldn't remember How to get people Out of an over stuffed house to Move! LOL? It's more complicated than I thought, because still there would be too many in Youngman's house! the game won't let me! ? so the normal way of moving by phone wouldn't work!
Then I made the mistake of purchasing an additional house! The second that I did it, I remembered I don't like that! ? So I restarted!
I used add sim to move Rocky Sunny and the boys, and also Henny & Faith, In with Gladsten! He is living in the Old Pendragon sisters house with his wife Freda. Gladsten was So happy to have new people to talk with, but, we had to go!
Off to Sunny & Rocky's New House. Hop in Boys! Come on Fabian! Byee Gladsten! https://i.imgur.com/0gfTCcY.jpg https://i.imgur.com/FIRVt4Y.jpg
Home sweet home! They live on that small street between Dante and Ayden Vangould. The other neighbors are Thalan& Timon, Alfie's clan. Max & Faelie, Cabana & the teens, and Danny & Belinda Lothario. https://i.imgur.com/kj7Lwvq.jpg
The teens are super excited because Rocky got them motorcycles, thinking they were Mature now for doing intern work! (hides my smile from poor Rocky!) https://i.imgur.com/5bGm18o.jpg https://i.imgur.com/UK5XdZz.jpg
The adults wanted to see which bed they liked the best. https://i.imgur.com/L6bkiem.jpg
I had to age up Henny and Faith again but they still look pretty much the same! Cute! Here they are and Yes, they have the beach bungalow and love it, and each other! I kind of want to just stay with them because Henny reminds me so much of Dante, just a different shaped head! He is super romantic! https://i.imgur.com/j7yIokK.jpg https://i.imgur.com/dJmTYVK.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ZAOgYc4.jpg https://i.imgur.com/hvlmvpH.jpg https://i.imgur.com/UYLOtqj.jpg <3
@DivaDoodle I actually meant Youngman's but Rocky's too. They should all be immortal. :grin: Of course, I don't think very many of yours will ever age. Kinda like mine. They are all immortal, even the humans. I don't think you can turn teens. I think they have to be at least a YA.
hehe, you typed Hanae instead of Nadia when commenting about slacking off. I know what you meant though. I do wonder what would happen if they caught her! :open_mouth:
@bekkasan Yay! so glad you could come bye! :smiley:
I know I might have to age these twins faster than the others! ( now i hear the cries of 'Hey! Not Fair!") because that kissing is bothersome!
Thank you for the reminder I have not saved all of the sims in the house! :o Yes my only corrupt game was from ITF too! I won't Ever go back to make those plumbots! grrrr!
hahah I do like to be surprised so I probably shouldn't have asked! I do plan to have the zombies but my sims keep distracting me on what my intent is! :o :D
ahahaha the pink heart farts are so silly! but I Do pay attention to the red heart! it is entirely different I have found! and each time it happens, it seems to make it stronger! not all the time but usually! I love to have that 'tell' It makes me want to play poker with my sims, I would Win! :D
I'm glad you liked seeing the sims at the park I was so happy those all came! I almost 'invited over' the missing spouses but was being lazy!
No Youngman waited until I wasn't looking to transform, the big brat!
Do you mean Rocky's kids to get turned or Youngmans? I usually go by a wish for it, like Youngman wants to turn Hanae now. But I don't know if she will want that. I don't know if teens get that wish but am eager to see it!
Yes OK since you & Alexa think Youngman should lose his glasses i will go for it because i do love how he looks without them! I used to think he was OK looking but I am thinking he is more nice looking each day that I see him.
''I hope Jed can meet someone he can see more often rather than an old (:lol:) maid in hibernation. '' LOL :D I need to get Rocky & family moved out so the boys can have their teen party and meet other teens!!!
I know! Youngman Never sees Hanae slacking off! All the adults are at work missing all the misbehavior! No wonder the teens and the maid think they can do whatever they want! :D
@DivaDoodle The awkward kissing is what made me age Alice much faster than I had planned. :grin: Well, I am glad it is not affecting your game. I didn't really expect a glitch like that to affect lag anyway. I've only had one save (knock on wood) become completely corrupt. The one where I had sims going back and forth to and from the future. I hope you've saved all your favorite sims in the library just in case.
I think the zombies are funny. Yes, they will eat plants if not fenced in but a fence will take care of that. They do quite a few fun things but I think it is way more fun to find out yourself than for me to tell you. I'm sure there are threads or Carl's site that will spill the beans if you really want to know.
You need to quit worrying about those red hearts. They don't always mean anything except it is time for that to show up because the sim did an action that made the other sim irresistible or some such thing. Most of my sims can have hearts with whomever when they are first in the game. After a certain number of conversations it is pretty much fixed and they will have hearts for the gender they have chosen. Even well established couples can get hearts to someone when they drive by the house. I don't trust hearts! I trust what I want for my sims. :grin:
Nice to see Eddy! So, I'm guessing Youngman didn't transform at the park since no pictures. Jeff! Nice to see him and Dimi. Max is like a toddler not wanting to share his favorite toy. Grow up Max! :lol:
Your visit sounds wonderful and glad you guys felt up to doing that. What a wonderful vacation for your family. Nice to be able to have time and afford to do that!
Great conversation between Rocky and Fabian.
Oh no! You missed his transformation. Well, at least it is over now. I think he should transform his kids when the time comes. Can you imagine them growing old in front of him. He should talk to them now so they can get used to the idea.
I like the idea of the guys being astronauts for the day. I hope Jed can meet someone he can see more often rather than an old (:lol:) maid in hibernation. They look so cute in their outfits! It's time for Youngman to lose the glasses. :grin: I guess he is a little like my Victor, got used to wearing them. I dunno, something about seeing the maid playing in the water slide would really tick me off and I'd fire her tush.
@Slivelerofdreams30 OH congrats on the Temp Job! That is so good! Ah even better to still allow time for the Sims! :)
hehehe Glad to see you liked the park and the people who came!
lol I know Max is always so funny and good to watch!
Yes I was so happy to see my sweet Eddy playing his guitar so well! I miss him!!! <3
YES! At last a vote for the love of Nadia and Jed! I am being hands off in the love affairs and relationships, so if they want dates and love that is what will happen! I just help with the wishes, and pray for no broken hearts!
Thank you! I'm so glad you had time to come over here my friend! <3
