Patience
I have been a prolific poster of images of my sims in action over the past few years. Unfortunately recent changes to the forum have broken the links to all of my pictures. I have spent a couple o...
Forum Discussion
If you've read through the above posts I thank you. Writing them has helped me remember the base sims and original concept for a game I've been playing since late 2014.
There are four of Patience and Marty's children still not accounted for in any household. This post is about that group of young adults.
I moved them to their own household and added a few unattached sims to the household to see if any relationships developed. I meant for the introduced Sims to meet up with and become romantic interests of the four young adults I'd just moved out of Marty's place.
Looking back on it now, I don't see how I could have hoped they'd form relationships with the sims I placed in their household.
I'd played households made up of eight unattached young adults for a few real life years by then and romantic relationships just didn't develop in any of those households.
The sims I placed in this household with the Hansen young adults had mostly come from those previous households of eight unattached young adults.
The Bachelor Pad

Needless to say, none of these monstrosities made their way into my studio. At least I was trying to work out how to use the greenhouse roof pieces.
Here's the household.
https://s5.postimg.cc/d4jwpbo07/Bachelor_Household001.jpg
I'll work down from the top, which is the process I've been following so far in earlier posts of this thread.
Fleur Flower.
https://s5.postimg.cc/kpriyj8ef/Fleur_Flower_FT001.jpg
Fleur's Traits are: Charismatic, Hopeless Romantic, Party Animal, Schmoozer, Great Kisser. Fleur's LTW: Magic Makeover
By the time I made Fleur I'd got over the habit of making all of my sims Friendly.
Fleur is a Fairy. She was my first attempt at making a fairy and had been played in many games before I added her to this game. She'd never been in a romantic relationship before and I hoped she might become an interesting wife for Henry Hansen. I thought it would be fun if Patience and Marty had some little fairy grandchildren.
https://s5.postimg.cc/fasg8fcjr/Fleur_Flower002.jpg
I found Fleur alone at the Bistro.
https://s5.postimg.cc/98oycawjr/Fleur_Flower001.jpg
Until recently, I had only ever used that hair on Fleur and developed a dislike for it because it was too blue. However, I liked it on other people's sims when pictures were posted showing them off. I recently used this hair again on another sim and have been very happy with it.
Needless to say, Fleur and Henry didn't become romantic interests. But I didn't give up on them easily. I tried really hard to get them together, but Fleur had found someone else and she wasn't going to be diverted to any other sim. I was prepared to try everything other than to remove that other sim from the household so all of my efforts were thwarted.

Rod Black
https://s5.postimg.cc/eg5wme4p3/Rod_Black_FT001.jpg
Rod's traits are: Adventurous, Eccentric, Handy, Charismatic, Green Thumb. Rod's LTW: Alchemy Artisan
https://s5.postimg.cc/qjb89yfrb/Rod_Black001.jpg
Rod is a Sim I had been made for one of my households of eight unrelated young adults. He had been used for skill building and to just do his own thing so I could see what Sims got up to when free will was on high and they got very little direction from me.
I found Rod at work in the hospital where he is a Resident.
https://s5.postimg.cc/z2um7po3r/Rod_Black002.jpg
Rod and Fleur have become romantic interests.
I had hoped Rod would marry one of the Hansen girls. But he was devoted to Fleur and nothing could change that.
I finally gave up on breaking up Rod and Fleur so they could become involved with one of the Hansens.
After moving them all to Dragon Valley I allowed Rod and Fleur to marry. Then I played their household for a long time. They are devoted to each other and they are a delight to play with. They have so much fun together. I even say Rod do something I thought was impossible for a human sim to do. He actually went into the Fairy House to be with Fleur when she was inside.
Rod is the only Sim I've ever had to be abducted by aliens and become pregnant.
Rod and Fleur have made several little fairies together and Rod has his alien child. They are a very happy household that is full of love and fun and I'm glad the game wouldn't let me break them up at this stage.

Walter Thompson
https://s5.postimg.cc/lnc6w04zr/Walter_Thompson_FT001.jpg
Walter's traits are: Couch Potato, Neat, Bookworm, Green Thumb, Frugal. His LTW: Bottomless Nectar Cellar.
https://s5.postimg.cc/n4xn7k9qf/Walter_Thompson002.jpg
I found Walter reading a book.
https://s5.postimg.cc/4bbuakbif/Walter_Thompson001.jpg
Walter was made and placed into a household of 8 unrelated young adults to gain skills and do his own thing.
I placed him in this household in the hope he might become attached to one of the Hansen girls.
Nothing happened. Walter remained steadfastly unattached. Nevertheless I took him to Dragon Valley and eventually, while I was playing another household I noticed he'd married another young adult I'd subsequently placed in the game after they got to Dragon Valley. This couple have had two children together and remain happily together. I rarely play their household.
My theory is maybe children of unrelated sims could form families with some of Patience's grandchildren or great grandchildren so I'm happy to add additional sims to the game.
Since I have several worlds in play in my Big Game there is plenty of scope for variety. I've begun moving some of the 'original 15' to different worlds within that game. Some of them have already established families and others are still unattached.
Earlier, I'd found Walter out in a park. This park came with the Katey Perry Sweet Treats Stuff Pack.
https://s5.postimg.org/7yrlgmjpj/Walter_Thompson003.jpg
I was interested to see Christopher, Craig, Patience and Lucy in the background.
-------------------------
Henry Hansen
Henry is the only son of Marty and Patience.
https://s5.postimg.cc/uyy8syhjb/Henry_Hansen_FT001.jpg
Henry's Traits are: Brave, Adventurous, Gatherer, Green Thumb, Friendly. His LTW: Master Magician
https://s5.postimg.cc/o0u4n0jev/Henry_Hansen001.jpg
https://s5.postimg.cc/7aiqxokzr/Henry_Hansen003.jpg
https://s5.postimg.cc/s8owvrkuf/Henry_Hansen002.jpg
Henry quickly found a wife after the household moved to Dragon Valley. She was one of the Dragon Valley townies and they have remained happily married throughout the game. They have two sons so far.
I have neglected Henry and rarely played his household. I have made sure his sons are skilled and that they all live in a nice comfortable house.
-------------------------------
Heather Hansen
Heather is one of Marty and Patience's four daughters.
https://s5.postimg.cc/hoezd6gcn/Heather_Hansen_FT001.jpg
Heather's traits are: Born Saleswoman, Disciplined, Friendly, Brave, Adventurous. Her LTW: Culinary Librarian
Heather remained steadfastly alone. After moving to Dragon Valley she moved into her own large home. It was all set up for a family but she showed no inclination to find herself a life partner.
Heather was very attached to her Imaginary Friend and, with some assistance from me (because I wanted to see what would happen) she seduced her IF and had a baby boy. Then Heather lived as a single mother for a really long time and raised her son, Perry, alone.
https://s5.postimg.cc/749n8c18n/Heather_Hansen001.jpg
https://s5.postimg.cc/6q3puzrrb/Heather_Hansen002.jpg
Heather achieved her Lifetime Wish soon after becoming a Young Adult.
Later in life, I took Heather off to live in Sunlit Tides. I made her a man and they lived together for a long time and they seemed to be good together so I let them get married and they have had babies together. Unfortunately she was almost an elder by that time so I got him to make her a Young Again potion. Her husband is a Genie named Duncan.
Here they are together at home. Apparently Heather was walking around the house in her sleepwear. Sims do that a lot I've noticed.
https://s5.postimg.cc/lc8tktgcn/HeatherAndDuncan007.jpg
I've had a lot of fun with Heather and Duncan. They've done a lot together and have been through most of the tombs in the three World Adventures worlds too.
Their's was one of the extremely few successful matches I've been able to make between pairs of sims in this game.
I have found it is safest for me to leave sims alone to find their own mate or the game will break them up as soon as I go off to play another household. I leave them alone mostly to find someone for themselves.
In Heather's case though, she showed no sign of doing that. I put them together and they stayed together while I played other households so when I played their household again I got them married and having babies after they did a lot of adventuring together.
If Duncan had moved out or found another romantic interest while I was off playing other households I'd have left Heather as a single sim. She'd had one baby and he would have had to be her only contribution to the next generation.

Haley Hansen
https://s5.postimg.cc/bfy8xc85j/Haley_FT001.jpg
Haley's traits are; Virtuoso, Friendly, Green Thumb, Adventurous, Genius. Her LTW: Lifestyle of the Rich and Famous
https://s5.postimg.cc/q2z7f06rr/Haley_Hansen001.jpg
Haley is the most messed up of all of Patience's children. I didn't try to make her that way. That's just how she is. In the end I left her alone and then went with the flow of what she wanted to do.
She's a Genius and wants to have the lifestyle of the rich and famous.
Haley seems to enjoy having, and taking care of her babies. She doesn't seem too concerned with who happens to father her many babies. Maybe she saw her mother in action for too long and inherited some of her mother's motivations.
I did observe, however, that in this household Haley had become the girlfriend of VJ Alvi. For some reason I didn't seem to like that idea at the time and left VJ Alvi behind when I packed up the Sims to move to Dragon Valley. Maybe it was dim memories of that awful breakup that sent her so far off the rails in later life.
https://s5.postimg.cc/cw9rfhb2f/Haley_Hansen003.jpg
https://s5.postimg.cc/lft5d8jev/Haley_Hansen002.jpg
After giving up on finding Haley a suitable husband, I married her to the imaginary friend turned real of her half-brother, Percy.
She seemed happy with Bob and they had a baby boy named Harry. Harry was an imaginary friend who was born in game as a sim with the IF trait. As he grew up he was able to take on the doll form.
This is little Harry as a toddler while Haley was still living with them.
https://s5.postimg.cc/kmxgzkbrb/Harry001.jpg
I found Haley autonomously rescuing the badly neglected son of Percy one day.
https://s5.postimg.cc/dxqxjjqfb/Haley001.jpg
This pic was taken while Haley was not being controlled by me. She rescued this little boy autonomously and I just happened to see her do it and got this picture.
She took care of the toddler who had been left out in the snow by his parents who had gone out to have some fun together. She is a sim who does care.
But when I thought she and Bob and Harry had a happy life together I went off to play another household and discovered she'd moved out. It took me ages to find where she'd gone and finally tracked her down to Gobias's house.
Fortunately Bob turned out to be an excellent father and took excellent care of little Harry. Bob did eventually, after Harry became a teen, manage to find a gorgeous sim to marry and has started having more babies with her.
Here is Bob and Kitty at their wedding.
https://s5.postimg.cc/dcknx4gef/KittyAndBob011.jpg
They are a devoted couple. Bob seems to be strongly protective of his family and takes excellent care of them.
Bob is at the top of the Ghost Hunter career.
Kitty preparing for her wedding with Bob.
https://s5.postimg.cc/yahn3q1hj/Kitty020.jpg
They have since had a baby girl together and she didn't inherit the Imaginary Friend trait.
Kitty is another of the sims I had previously made for a household of eight random young adults. Bob was her first and only romantic relationship.
----------------------------
Hannah Hansen
The youngest child of Patience and Marty.
https://s5.postimg.cc/y9r76kwuf/Hannah_Hansen_FT001.jpg
Hannah's traits are: Brave, Dramatic, Bookworm, Friendly, Diva. Her LTW: Lifestyle of the Rich and Famous.
She has a romantic interest that she got all by herself. It is with Candy Ashleydale. I don't recall ever playing Candy. Maybe Hannah met her while around town at some stage. In any case Candy didn't go to Dragon Valley with them all and Hannah soon met and married a much older man in Dragon Valley and had four children with him.
They stayed apparently happily married until he died of old age.
https://s5.postimg.cc/7pym4fwav/Hannah_Hansen001.jpg
-----------------------------------------
The final member of the household is VJ Alvi. He is a townie sim from Sunset Valley.
For some reason I decided not to take him to Dragon Valley.
VJ Alvi's traits are; Inappropriate, Evil, Childish, Snob. His LTW: He had none at this stage.
He was still a teen.
I found VJ Alvi playing with Hannah.
Hannah had just aged up from being a teen herself.
https://s5.postimg.cc/p5ss64v9j/Hannah_And_VJAlvi001.jpg
VJ Alvi was shown as being the boyfriend of Haley. Maybe these relationships had been established while they were all teens and VJ Alvi just hadn't aged up yet. In any case, like Candy Ashleydale, he got left behind and played no further role in the game.
-----------------
So now you've met all of the main players that I took to Dragon Valley.
The only two I can think of that I took there and haven't mentioned yet are two homeless sims who I grabbed because I thought they'd add interest and variety to the game. They are Artie Page and Gage Briody.
There are four of Patience and Marty's children still not accounted for in any household. This post is about that group of young adults.
I moved them to their own household and added a few unattached sims to the household to see if any relationships developed. I meant for the introduced Sims to meet up with and become romantic interests of the four young adults I'd just moved out of Marty's place.
