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

I always love your weddings, especially when the sims just show up wearing any old thing! Cabana Boy must be giving out formal dressing tips. :)
Sunny is an odd one! I still get a giggle out of Daydream's old sink prank on her back when Dayream was still a wily teen torturing Poor Eddy. Maybe Sunny is slowly plotting revenge. :)
MORE NOOBOOS! Youngman should not be denied the possibility of being daddy to a baby fairy!
@DivaDoodle : what a beautiful little wedding! So good that all the Pendragon Sisters were there! (I always hate it when invited guests don´t come to a wedding party, at the beginning of my playing with Sims 3 even the bride or groom, depending on who didn´t live in the active family, didn´t show up at their own wedding!!! Happened too often, so after a few times I just moved in the Sim I´ve planned to marry into my active family.)
Aww, the teens are so nice to start learning some skills before Hanae forces them to. :D Although I don´t think that Hanae would have had time for this, she had to plan her wedding, right? Btw, how long are Youngman and her a couple???? ;) B)
Lol about taking away the socks and the body hair! If I were Hanae I would have liked both to get rid off.... but I like his hairstyle and his glasses, he looks very good with it.
Poor Leif, I can see he wants to marry Cherish, I don´t know what hinders her to do so? And he wants children with her, too, what a dream boy this is! <3 She shouldn´t just run away!
I looove all the unconventional clothing your Sims wear on weddings! Mostly they wear swimsuits but this time I´ve spotted formal wear and a pyjama, great! :D Brook looks so sweet in his sleepwear, it almost as if he wears a suit... ;)
Hm, so nobody told you why they were thinking about Sunny? I like Dimi´s explanation... :D :p
Maybe you should move Sunny in for some time to see why she doesn´t want to get a boyfriend... but maybe she just wants to be so independent like she is now? No man to make compromises with...
:D yes, I´ve read about the party at Timon´s and Thalan´s house and I liked it! You didn´t have to spy through the windows at them like a Peeping Tom, that is creepy! :D ;) :p You can open no-active houses with Master Controller, you know? B)
:) I really can´t imagine of playing the whole town. And I am sorry to say, but Homeless Sims are uninteresting for me. I don´t know them and they just serve as a background setting for me, someone has to be at the bars, right? I mostly even delete them when they are hideously dressed.... o:) I just concentrate on my family, with them I have enough to do, because I play all children and some interesting grandchildren as well. None of my Sims ever married a Service Sim... Only residents...
I am sooo happy for you and your husband that you "just" had a normal cold! I can´t imagine the side-effects on you if it was Covid. Good for your sons that they are still young and able to fight Covid (or a cold) better than us! Maybe you got it from the Costco-visit your son and hubby did, we have to be very careful from now on to not get normal infections. We are so used to wear masks and wash and desinfect hands that even a normal virus can be very serious for us! And we will get this normal diseases faster now because we don´t have so many anti-bodies against them anymore because of this hygiene. So when we don´t wear masks or don´t wash hands so often anymore or when we begin to hug each other again, bam!, we can get ill!
Lol about your son´s Arnie impression! I can clearely imagine how he spoke and posed! :D I love Arnie especially in his Terminator role.
I wish you so much fun with your family at the weekend! It is soo good to see them! I think I have told you already that my sister came to visit me for a week and that my brother came for 3 days, too? And that I finally could see my parents again, after 1 1/2 year? That was so great, I really missed them all! So have fun with your sisters and their husbands and eat lots of tasty food!!! <3
@DivaDoodle I love that Hanae is finally showing her love for him. I know he must be the happiest guy in your world right now. oh wow...she asked! That is terrific!
Love that you finally got them all to show up! Yes, good time to have the wedding. Jeff looks happy! Dimi looks happy too. Perhaps it is time for more babies for them. Don't they need 5? :grin:
Maybe Cherish just needs more romantic interactions with Leif? As soon as Bekka and Jamie started packing those romantic wishes they started getting all kinds of wonderful wishes. :smiley:
Beautiful wedding! I know they will be happy together. The kids are so cute with their emotions. I agree with Hanae. Sunny should stop trying to steal Hanae's day! >:)
oh no! Cherish is not happy. Sunny probably upset her staring at Leif! Good talk with Leif, Youngman! LOL, just don't move Sunny in with Cherish and Leif please!
That was a fun update even though Sunny made me cranky! :lol: Don't you have any vampires dudes? other than snobby Ayden! :D I can give ya a couple if you need one for her. :wink:
250 The Watcher Watches: Youngman-MacDuff's ~~ Hanae's marriage wish! ~~
While the kids practice their various skills (they know to do this before Hanae can boss them!) , https://i.imgur.com/jbtZ3xq.jpg https://i.imgur.com/1V9yued.jpg https://i.imgur.com/8DUz5B5.jpg
Youngman and Hanae are caught canoodling on the front porch. Hanae Loves him and is able to tell him now! Yay! She finds him so attractive, and doesn't mind his thick glasses and back hair and that he wears icky socks to bed! Nope, she loves that he is an awesome father and dedicated worker and especially that he is a Great kisser! She just loves to kiss him! https://i.imgur.com/YkKmVlQ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/1tGf2kH.jpg https://i.imgur.com/MNx7DPG.jpg https://i.imgur.com/1Ls8pXW.jpg https://i.imgur.com/2qxxgT3.jpg
"Today I have a wish to make him mine all mine!" she thinks. :o :smiley: "What have you got hidden there, Hanae?" "No peeking!" she says. https://i.imgur.com/GbJ5NA4.jpg https://i.imgur.com/tuxXnih.jpg https://i.imgur.com/NX6hn5Y.jpg
Youngman is surprised and shocked! He was going to propose but was waiting for the right time! He has had the wish to marry since before she moved in! https://i.imgur.com/7oiUWAD.jpg https://i.imgur.com/DD2M636.jpg
"Youngman my darling man, Will you marry me and become a Pendragon? It will make all your kids be Pendragon's as well! And of course some day, our own child, together..." Youngman is so delighted to hear her words! Of course says Yes! He is so in love! Besides who could ever say No to that sweet beautiful face? He admires the sparkling ring on his hand like a girl, and embraces her tenderly! hehe I just think he is so cute! :D https://i.imgur.com/Eu8IJNK.jpg https://i.imgur.com/I9f75PO.jpg https://i.imgur.com/TZAvbq8.jpg https://i.imgur.com/gZyw50W.jpg https://i.imgur.com/gbWc7Ql.jpg
Don't worry Hanae, we can fix him up and get rid of his icky socks and back hair! "No Watcher! I like him just exactly how he is!" says Hanae. Oh that is like what Ethereal said of Laz, the hairy beast! I guess some girls like that! https://i.imgur.com/wDhXN9D.jpg
Well, Well, Well, Look who finally decides to show up! Leif and his girl friend Cherish Pendragon, who is one of Hanae's sisters. We are still waiting on her sister Dimi and her husband Jeff Brogman, and on her sister Sunny Pendragon, the Most willful and naughtiest sister. https://i.imgur.com/ZHqSCqq.jpg
Cherish speaks with Faith MacDuff "Oh My Gosh! Are All of you children my sister's children? I didn't realize it had been that long since we've spoken! I just Love children!" "No, Youngman is my and my brother Joe's care taker, and the rest of the kids are Youngman's from a previous marrige." says Faith. Leif whispers to Cherish, reminding her that she too, could have kids, if only she would agree to marry him! Poor adorable Leif! You really picked out a doozy of a girlfriend, didn't you? https://i.imgur.com/DP7s6mB.jpg https://i.imgur.com/0JJ8Of9.jpg
Happily Jeff and Dimi arrive! They must have gotten a baby sitter for their twins, because they didn't bring them along. Jeff heads right over to talk with Faith while Dimi stands there deciding if she will enter on the lot or not! https://i.imgur.com/SqLYZIA.jpg
And Halleluiah, the vampire sister, Sunny, decided to grace us all with her presence! "Hi Dimi!" she says to her sis. Hopefully this will get Dimi to stay! https://i.imgur.com/SPj4EgP.jpg
Watcher wastes not one second setting up for a wedding, because I never know when I can get all sisters to stay on the same lot, now that all the girls have moved out of their original household! One of them is surely to run away early! Jeff and Sunny rush to play on the water slide with Henny! Jeff especially loves water slides! https://i.imgur.com/aEpGcH9.jpg
Hanae makes the move to marry right NOW! Good girl Hanae! Everyone gathers to welcome the wedding couple, and look for a place to watch the wedding with a good view! "Congrats sis!" says Cherish. She already knows that everyone wishes that she would marry Leif, they all love him to pieces! She doesn't know why she doesn't get the wish when she Loves Leif! So Who knows, maybe this wedding will give her the urge to wish for it too? https://i.imgur.com/fpVj7Zs.jpg https://i.imgur.com/M5IlD4S.jpg
Youngman is very excited to get the wedding going! Jeff is really happy for Hanae! Little Brook comes down from the treehouse to see what all the commotion is about! He has been playing up there since early morning! "Are you ready for this, dear?" Hanae asks her groom. "Oh Yes!" says Youngman. https://i.imgur.com/xnuEu5B.jpg https://i.imgur.com/85Ueave.jpg https://i.imgur.com/38kSfsV.jpg https://i.imgur.com/BdInMgW.jpg https://i.imgur.com/6I10vyB.jpg
"My love, wear this ring as a symbol of my love and devotion, unending." says Youngman. https://i.imgur.com/A1WaRsL.jpg https://i.imgur.com/6NNSH27.jpg https://i.imgur.com/SLDLO2u.jpg
"My darling man, wear this ring as a symbol of my unending love and devotion." says Hanae. https://i.imgur.com/83fnU9l.jpg https://i.imgur.com/pPDVmcT.jpg https://i.imgur.com/cw77n4j.jpg https://i.imgur.com/49YLaLp.jpg
Announcing Mr. & Mrs. Pendragon <3 https://i.imgur.com/DYgBXLV.jpg https://i.imgur.com/4b7QgMv.jpg
Some are so moved to tears, and others are so happy they clap and throw rice! Henny, Youngman's eldest, is very emotional today. Well he is a hopeless romantic, and already in love! Zack too! https://i.imgur.com/uHcbglI.jpg https://i.imgur.com/wjuEd9U.jpg
Leif hopes that seeing this emotional outpouring of love will have some effect on his darling Cherish! https://i.imgur.com/EZmoC7k.jpg https://i.imgur.com/3d5CBY0.jpg
The kids are so happy, they clap and throw rice! Sunny alternates between crying and being excited! https://i.imgur.com/NCrx6PL.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ld0eQ85.jpg https://i.imgur.com/jPZDhLc.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ABd4zyQ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/4ImB4v3.jpg https://i.imgur.com/SQ85Y4a.jpg https://i.imgur.com/s4bNBuI.jpg
Then Cherish, in the background starts thinking about Sunny! I think they might be communicating telepathically! Suddenly Everyone Knows! Jeff stays silent with his thoughts! What is going on? Tell Me Jeff! "No." he says. I have a feeling none of these sims will tell me what this is all about! https://i.imgur.com/mswsPag.jpg https://i.imgur.com/HK4O7mP.jpg https://i.imgur.com/80lvb5P.jpg https://i.imgur.com/T8Mk8JU.jpg https://i.imgur.com/xw2t9D6.jpg https://i.imgur.com/7AL5vxw.jpg
"I'll Tell!'' announces Dimi. "It's all about Sunny, Watcher!" uh well yeah, we all kind of gathered that part, Dimi. thanks anyway. https://i.imgur.com/G1YJ7GN.jpg
Hanae thinks that is enough about her peculiar sister and says it's time to cut the cake! https://i.imgur.com/WQeC8zD.jpg https://i.imgur.com/CFUR8x4.jpg https://i.imgur.com/IPAUYv8.jpg
Everyone is glad because they all love cake more than anything in this town! https://i.imgur.com/CuylPCd.jpg https://i.imgur.com/VembQd7.jpg https://i.imgur.com/IRDJYDS.jpg
What Sunny? Have you more to tell us? "Roses and Romance!" she says mysteriously, as she looks over at Leif. Oh go sit down! Leif already made his choice. https://i.imgur.com/JTFA9Nd.jpg
https://i.imgur.com/NcaVX1a.jpg
Suddenly Cherish has had it, and runs at top speed off the lot! And I have No one in a position to stop her. https://i.imgur.com/XiAZIob.jpg https://i.imgur.com/a1rRF5T.jpg
Leif immediately gets up and chases after her! Even though it looks like he wanted to talk with Jeff and Henny! https://i.imgur.com/BSPoOpr.jpg https://i.imgur.com/2tjENKZ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/VcFDL0G.jpg
I quickly try to get Youngman to say something to Leif. Maybe we can find out what the Heck is going on! "Leif! Wait up! What is going on with Cherish?" Youngman asks. "Cherish is upset, she feels the pressure to marry is too great. She loves me but doesn't have a wish to marry. We are eternally faithful to each other." says Leif. I check with MC and he and Cherish are indeed eternally faithful. https://i.imgur.com/Dbs3vIR.jpg https://i.imgur.com/AgUNieJ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/tJgsk1J.jpg https://i.imgur.com/4gzP1V0.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Tln2QlH.jpg
"Does she want kids? Sometimes that will lead to marriage." says Youngman. ''Anyway, you've been together so long, Cherish is probably already your common law wife!'' https://i.imgur.com/whwRZk3.jpg https://i.imgur.com/aCHKiuW.jpg
Leif looks like he is about to cry out of happiness, on hearing that! "But, but, that would mean we'd miss out on the cake!" says Leif. "Well yeah, there's that." agrees Youngman. https://i.imgur.com/5kvDRyo.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Av1BfEP.jpg
Patty learns by seeing Jeff and Dimi, "Oh it must be another way that people have to get going home!" she thinks. Patty is correct! Just woohoo at a neighbors house and you will be sent away! :D https://i.imgur.com/aNvxB8i.jpg https://i.imgur.com/27fWxgo.jpg https://i.imgur.com/OxWeaXM.jpg https://i.imgur.com/cefQ4E3.jpg https://i.imgur.com/sBWNXoy.jpg https://i.imgur.com/jW4n3W3.jpg
Ah Nadia, the maid, is here to cleanup what ever stinky thing that Dimi smelled! Good! (It wasn't either sim, I checked with MC!) Henny and Sunny discuss art in the kitchen. This is nice to get to know his new aunt! https://i.imgur.com/ed8KsFW.jpg https://i.imgur.com/jRvbLYF.jpg https://i.imgur.com/5JF14J0.jpg
Oh, sorry Nadia, Sunny just might cheer for the other team! "Well find me someone! Watcher!" OK I will look. https://i.imgur.com/bQB0sX5.jpg https://i.imgur.com/n6YPwi8.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ukZ69WS.jpg
I really have the urge to move in Sunny, the last Pendragon sister, to see what she is all about! Watcher is obviously delirious to think such things! We are already too crowded, and Youngman just had the nerve to wish for another baby! :o https://i.imgur.com/UnqcEMI.jpg
I'm glad you like Youngman's family, I do too! It is really fun trying to get to know each one of them! There are so many all at once! Much harder than having one baby at a time!
Yes Zack needed immediate rescuing! Good thing Patty loves him and just swooped him up! His demeanor changed from gloomy to gladness the instantshe arrived! Rainflower is a crazy hippie, lol I don't think he knows much of anything except for music, he is quite good at the guitar! I wish that EA had made Rainflower more in David Crosby's likeness, he is way more interesting! (and talented!)
Same here! I was wondering if they would split too, they were only RI, and Youngman was all busy getting to know Nadia! LOL I didn't know What would happen but was ready for anything. I'm glad that Hanae Finally said the gf/bf image! Gosh the Pendragon sisters are such a pain in the a$$! :D (except for Dimi, she is the only Normal one!)
Yes I agree with you that of the girls Youngman knows that Hanae is the best choice for him, but if she hadn't worked out (or took too long to say she loved him back) I was ready to try other homeless sims! the homeless ones are more apt to fall in love and want to marry, much more than my created sims which are usually all naughty and willful and maddening! LOL
Marriage?! Yes I was delighted she wasn't at all like Cherish who still refuses to get the wish to marry poor cute Leif, so Hanae got the wish and I played that yesterday and will post it today once I fix all my typos and bad sentence structure! LOL
hehehe I'm so glad you loved those parts you describe about the teens behavior! Teens are just so irresistibly funny and cute! They are my very favorites!
Ah! When I saw Timon and then Thalan say the speak bubble of gf/bf and their favorite girls say it back to them, I made them partners with MC and moved them in with the guys! It was back after the time when you said to me you like the Countess and if I ever put them together I should take away her miss-matched gloves from her sleepwear! :D hahaha Of course I did it asap so she has nice sleep wear now!
Not too long ago there was a party invite from Timon and Youngman & Hanae went to it! It was within the first 8 days of August! It was fun seeing who all Timon had invited there! :) Youngman & Hanae got kicked out of the party for woo, Just as Thalan had arrived but I found a way to get back into the house to spy!? Thalan was in the process of wooing Annelise and told me to stop being so nosey!! :D I am waiting to see wedding bells thoughts of the Guys!
I should have stayed longer at the festival to take more pics of everyone (the Guys) there, but I was getting tired and it is hard to remember when I'm so focused on this family and trying to get to know everyone still.
Yes it is fun to see the ones we know in the background! I stay with a family until I feel that I know what I want of them, it is harder to know everyone in a larger household, so it takes longer. I want to know and play the whole town! :) Of course I get distracted by homeless sims and then want to play them too! LOL
Thank you sweetie I will tell him! we are fine and it was just a summer cold, but a very strong one! His results were negative for the delta variance, thank goodness! America is so 'pro business' that I think is why they say no masks needed, so that customers can feel free to go to movies and restaurants and stores, to help the business's! :o all I know is that I am making Amazon extremely Rich, because I don't do stores since covid hit the US! I should probably buy stock in Amazon!
My sons are fine, the eldest does get cold like symptoms which only last him 3 days, he has an incredible immune system, and he is very good a bout sequestering himself away from us during these times. but I do think that is possibly how we probably caught our cold, unless it was when hubby and #2 son went to Costco and it was during the no mask period. That really could have been it! we all do good hand washing etc. since their upbringing was strictly germophobic like mine with my doctor dad, and germs are the enemy! lol I probably caught it either from hubby kissing me all the time or #1 son. Anyway we are all find now and #2 son never got ill. He tells me "My immune system is strong like my mighty heart!" in his Arnold Schwarzenegger impression! LOL we all just Loooove Arnold!?
We are having our very first other-family visit next weekend since covid ever hit us in 2020! I am really excited! hugs back to you from all of us here!?
@DivaDoodle : I like Youngman´s little family! Especially Brook is such a sweet little boy. <3 Your Sims ask other Sims to move in very quickly, but I loooved it that Patty asked Zack to move in so fastly, because he should better live with her and her big eventful family than with his own. I really can´t understand Rainflower and his "parenting", he doesn´t know his kids at all. Otherwise he should have scolded Peanut for being mean to Zack so often! Hanae is the best choice for Youngman to be with, she obviously loves children and seems to get along with his and the other teens in the household very good. I wonder when the y will marry? I really thought for a second that they would split when Hanae invited the Service Sims over and she and Earl got along together more than good! Was there a flirting between them and wasn´t it only Earl who liked it???? B) Youngman is very forgiving... :D loooved it when Hanae got rampant with all the teens to learn a skill and the teens decided to make a date out of it. And then she goes to bed without taking note that al teens weren´t at home at all! :D Good for them that they weren´t caught by police and brought back home n a police car. But wait- they already have two police cars in the family, so it wouldn´t be very scary for them to be brought back in one of them.... ;) Henny not getting out of the bathroom and getting ready for school: and later his dad comes to look after him and discovering why he was late. So good, it reminds me how I was distracted when I was a teen and was together with a friend. Aww, Brook being the family repair man and bringing Jason to his dad Javon! Sooooo sweet of the little kid! No wonder Youngman couldn´t scold him for not going on a field trip (when I remember the field trips I had to go on when I was in school... Brook didn´t miss a thing!!!). Great that Jovan wanted his son to live with him and that his girlfrind Eliza wasn´t against him to move in! The picture with Jason and Jovan where Javon is sooo exciting to see his son is great! Great pictures fof the festival, it´s great to see so many beloved Sims in the background, I love the picture of Cabana walking with his ice cone! :D And finally a life sign of Thalan and Timon! So they already live together with their favourite girls? When did that happen? Great to see Alfie and some of his kids again!
When I see all your played Sims I couldn´t imagine to play some of them and then leaving them to move to another family! But it is great to see this played Sims in the background and know who they are. Makes the town more familiar.
I am in shock that hubby and you could have had (have) Covid! When is your husband´s result back? I sooooo hope that you and he are much better now and that you won´t suffer from your disease! What about the boys? Have they been sick, too? It is such a relief to know that you have been vaccinated before, but if you´ve caught it now, girl that´s mad! I just read that California was mask less for a month??????? HOW STUPID CAN GOVERNMENTS BE?????? THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE and I so hope that you will put on your masks whenever you leave the house! Even fully vaccinated you can get and spread the virus from and to others so protect yourself, please! Even when some mad politicians say you can not get ill if fully vaccinated and the numbers of infections aren´t high.... I know for sure that even IF we don´t have to wear masks in public anymore I will still wear one! Please hug hubby from me and wish him all my best! And some more hugs go out there from me to you as well! <3
@bekkasan Well it had me very concerned Why those naughty Pendragon sisters never do what they are supposed to be doing! Well save for Dimi, at least she wanted to get married and have kids! :smiley:
So today I invited them all over multiple times starting Very early in the morning and had Great success! They brought along Jeff and Leif too! I will post it tomorrow! It was a fun save and I got loads of cute pics of everyone!
@DivaDoodle Well daggum that homebody Jeff! He's just like me. If it wasn't for work I'd be a hermit. Eliza was a really good Mom in that save of mine. Javon looked so happy to see him. haha, Patty and Zack are very smart! Ewww. I hope she doesn't look like Rainflower either! Brook was the smartest getting her tired out playing catch! :smiley: Oh boy! Festival fun! Looks like everyone is having a great time. Fun update! I enjoyed it. I do understand that some sims don't show up places. I was just teasing with my original comment re Jeff and some of the oldies. I do enjoy seeing what your new ones are doing.
Hahaha, Hanae's family oriented rampage was hysterical, especially when it culminated in her going to sleep while four of her teens were breaking curfews! Ah well, nobody's perfect. :) Good job, Hanae!
Aww, poor Ayden blows it again! I get such a kick out of him: I find him almost as funny as I find Branch. I clearly get a kick out the weirdest of your background characters who have no social skills at all but, darn it, they sure do make things more interesting!
And I 100% want an update on Daydream and Poor Eddy, if only to see what glorious faces Eddy is making these days! :)
249 The Watcher Watches: Youngman-MacDuff's ~~ Summer Festival! ~~
It is early evening and Hanae is on the rampage, trying to be the good 'parental influence' by bossing all the kids around! :D This is a relatively new trait for her, and she is just now starting to use it! First to get her "Improve Your Skills'' command was Zack, then Patty. They decided to interpret her command as ''go take a class in guitar and see a concert'', since Zack wanted to learn guitar and Patty wanted to see a concert! ;)
Patty thinks "If I become a rock star, I hope I don't end up looking like Rainflower!" https://i.imgur.com/KanzlSY.jpg
Next, Hanae marches over to interrupt Henny's painting to tell him to learn how to fish! "Yes Mam." says Henny, and decides to take Faith with him, on a date, to make fishing more fun! :D https://i.imgur.com/HnqYamw.jpg https://i.imgur.com/slrvGra.jpg https://i.imgur.com/91idkFG.jpg https://i.imgur.com/yHtFvTL.jpg https://i.imgur.com/tjM71mu.jpg
And next Hanae went after sweet ol Joe! Hanae is really into practicing her family oriented skills this evening! Joe grabs Mary's hand, and they rush off in a flash to the gym, their favorite place! They just love to work out! https://i.imgur.com/ciqaUnY.jpg https://i.imgur.com/xjvzX50.jpg
By this time, Youngman is already asleep, he goes to bed early because he is used to getting up at zero dark thirty for work. Hanae tells Brook to practice his skills, which the brilliant lad translates to 'play catch with me!' Hanae really likes this! She likes all games! https://i.imgur.com/DEr7PrW.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ulMmXu9.jpg
Hanae finally calls it a job well done, sends Brookie to bed, and heads to sleep, forgetting that 4 of the teens are out after curfew! The pop-up tattles on them! LOL I go to check. They are having a nap, at the fishing pond (after leaving a text to Dad, their whereabouts.) and also at the theater, although I don't see how they can sleep through all the concert noise! https://i.imgur.com/GW680ka.jpg https://i.imgur.com/eaMTQx1.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ymV5EV2.jpg https://i.imgur.com/0d31KAW.jpg
At 3am this fishing spot is so pretty, with the fish making splashing sounds! Henny and Faith wake up from their nap, but are still pretty tired, so they run across the way to get a mud bath at the gym. This will do wonders to replenish their energy! https://i.imgur.com/YtdN7KU.jpg https://i.imgur.com/8NWhdb0.jpg https://i.imgur.com/J9ePBHO.jpg https://i.imgur.com/GM6KAsv.jpg
By breakfast, everyone is home and excited, because today the Summer Festival is in town, and all the kids have a wish to go! Brook is very excited because Henny let him turn on the siren for the drive over! Henny is such a nice big brother! https://i.imgur.com/14wM0zS.jpg https://i.imgur.com/fIu6WHA.jpg https://i.imgur.com/VWGaIVD.jpg
Brook is so happy to find his pal, Jason, is here! They have a soccer match. When Brookie scores, his sister Mary is there to see it and be happy for him! https://i.imgur.com/4VDo1xZ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/00Z7o6b.jpg https://i.imgur.com/08fXgZW.jpg https://i.imgur.com/2AorBXZ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/V9ptb0v.jpg https://i.imgur.com/wpBLSAt.jpg
I see that Henny, Patty and Zack have entered the hot dog contest with Anya. Hm, Anya looks very confident that she will win, but it turns out that Henny is the winner! Henny smiles and casts his eyes down, modestly. Cute! https://i.imgur.com/KTJWuHb.jpg https://i.imgur.com/bmKX8mM.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Kcl4HPB.jpg https://i.imgur.com/5HLs1og.jpg
Youngman and Hanae love games and play horseshoes, Hanae ends up winning this round. She is excited to see Zack practicing his painting! "See, all that bossing around does Wonders!" she thinks, very proud of her family orienting skills.? https://i.imgur.com/LP6gqmf.jpg https://i.imgur.com/xvtAxt1.jpg
"Dad! Come Look! Me and Jason are riding horses on the Carousel!" calls Brook. Youngman rushes over to wave to his young one. He is such a nice Daddy! https://i.imgur.com/aLm2DG3.jpg https://i.imgur.com/2l09KuW.jpg https://i.imgur.com/zMLmH6X.jpg
Watcher has been seeing good ol Wikerman very frequently dressed in a business suit, instead of his usual wicker-outfit or his tattoo artist uniform! I can't remember if I explored this or not. I am so curious! I have Youngman meet him and ask his career. Wikerman says he is now a CEO in business! I guess he has decided to change careers on his own! And he still boyfriend to Anya, I am happy to learn! But does he still do tattoo's? "Wikerman, are you still able to give tattoos?" asks Youngman. "Oh yes, have a seat right over here." says Wikerman, indicating the tattoo chair which has suddenly materialized!? In the back ground I see the Timon & Thalan with their girlfriends. https://i.imgur.com/ymUJsPs.jpg https://i.imgur.com/TpN775z.jpg https://i.imgur.com/nLtQbpZ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/U2CSy7G.jpg
Youngman is so happy because Wikerman is the most gifted tattoo artist in the land! He is a master artist! Wikerman applies the finishing touches. Youngman had to settle for the eagle on his shoulder because they were out of stencils of gigantic anchors, which are his very favorite. ?? And he also gets all 6 of the kids names, which take up all of his bicep and forearm, and then on his wrist, a sweet red heart that says 'Hanae'.? "Thank you Wikerman! That is a beautiful job! Just what I wanted!" Youngman tells him. "Not at all, don't mention it, I'm happy to make that for you." says Wikerman. https://i.imgur.com/Eg5W4XJ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/Nwlv5z8.jpg
The ex, Becky is here and has come to brag of her many possessions to Youngman, she likes to try to out-do him, like that. Youngman can see that Hanae is watching for any sign of love still present between he and his ex. He knows about the love letter Becky had sent him, that Hanae had unfortunately intercepted and read. He decides to interrupt Becky's bragging, and put on a great show to tell of his immense love for Hanae!? https://i.imgur.com/dcZdH4V.jpg https://i.imgur.com/C8iC26d.jpg https://i.imgur.com/t8D944h.jpg
Hanae is over the moon with happiness to hear Youngman declare how much he loves her! I love seeing her happy face! She is so moved, she has to hug him! They get carried away with their loving, but I don't really think the ex cares all that much. Becky is mostly annoyed that she was interrupted while listing her many possessions! :D https://i.imgur.com/4ZN5dsj.jpg https://i.imgur.com/HFSNcE2.jpg https://i.imgur.com/U70RCzk.jpg https://i.imgur.com/FSb2iin.jpg
Little Brook has been chatting with his friend Bébé, Danny's daughter. I see Danny in the background having a snow cone with Cabana. The little kiddos love to joke around and share secrets! https://i.imgur.com/fAeG0oo.jpg https://i.imgur.com/rwnpXUM.jpg https://i.imgur.com/PlGLBTj.jpg
Oh! Becky, the ex, has come to talk with Ayden the vampire playboy! I wonder if anything will come of it? They are both snobs, I hope that is enough. https://i.imgur.com/cU30wNk.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ZJG4szo.jpg https://i.imgur.com/O9bcGfT.jpg https://i.imgur.com/qbDouIB.jpg https://i.imgur.com/eY1w58z.jpg
*I just wanted to mention the missing invited sims, so you don't think I'm ignoring the oldies but goodies, and the ones we might be interested to see more of! : Cherish & Leif, Sunny, Dimi & Jeff, Jason's Dad Javon & Eliza, Dante & Tulip, Eddy & Daydream(well I am probably the only one interested in these two!), Branch & Dayvid, Alfie & Cherie, Jake & Church Lady, Gladsten & Freida, Max & Faelie. I guess they were all too busy on this Saturday, the beginning of Summer, or maybe the game thought there were enough sims here already.
I had not invited Becky the ex, she just showed up. I think she is looking for love, or someone rich to be her sugar daddy! :o
And as usual, I just go where the story, their wishes, my curiosity, and the simmies lead me!???
