@Sprottenham Thank you for your comments and your spoiler writing I love to read your thoughts on writing!~

Yes I think character development and also conversations are probably what I find most interesting, but I can never put my finger on what it is exactly that is the most compelling, to me in a story.
But my mind right now is being influenced because I just watched a Netflix series which my husband referred to as "Teen angst at Emo High" :D That one was filled with teen drama! maybe a bit overdramatic, as I saw him in my peripheral vision rolling his eyes and shaking his head. ;) hahaha
But a good story is also all about peoples preferences too. For instance I love James Michener's novels but I do skip pages of description (I think he is praised for this) of the landscapes or water. seriously there were 3 full Pages of solely describing the ocean! --ok, I get it, it was breathtaking! :) But then we finally get into the the story, and wow I am transfixed and teleported right into the story, I know exactly how the Hawaiian queen is feeling, I not only sympathize, I become her. So maybe the very most compelling is the character development. I love how Stephen King does his, he might be my very favorite for his characters, even though I hate getting so scared by many of his stories.
Oh super! thank you for your opinion of the Tesla parents vanishing!
Yes I love having the sims make the story, I always am interested in where it is going to lead, what ideas they are going to inspire! I wonder if the developers knew just how fun they were going to be, to just watch?
oh, :) thank you.

Ah that's right I forget that the game comes in different languages, She probably does have a different name! i think there are 2 burglars in each town, one male one female.
haha yes the ice bag! :D
Ah, to try to make more clear: Alfred talked to Jin's daughter at the teen party, and when he was thinking over what she told him, and had a dream about it, it made him want to check Jin's receipts, knowing that Jin sells potions and jelly bean bushes. He found that Mr. Tesla bought a jelly bean bush. Alfred knows that Sometimes eating those jelly beans can be fatal. It was just Alfred's idea in the moment, of a possible clue to the vanishing, so he is going to discuss this with Alfie.
Haha no, no rain in the town, it causes too much lag, and also I like for the weather to be like where I live. although right now it is a bit hot and there are the normal yearly fires in our state, making the air stinky, plus all the exhaust from the traffic 2 hrs away of the people evacuating. But the air currants have changed and the air is good now, for us. The Firefighters here are nothing like in the game, here they are exemplary and so many come from other states to help, it's extraordinary how wonderful they are!
HAHA! I see you gracefully backing away from another explanation of Max's timelines!?? ok I will spare you--Today!
Amscray! Do you have 'Pig Latin' in your country? it's a code language, that kids like to use. You take a word, for instance 'Run' and take off the first letter, so it becomes 'Un', then you place the first letter at the end, and add 'ay' so it would become "Unray".
(If google translate is correct) In your language løpe would become øpelay.
'Scram' is American slang for 'get out of here!' Scram=Amscray! ?
''I hope the kids think thoroughly about this vampire thing.'' My Sims? Think things thoroughly? ?
Yes the potions Alfie made for the boys did not seem as dramatic at all! whoever heard of a yellow potion to create a vampire! B) >:)
Oh I might have to look up that British vampire movie, Byzantium, sounds like I should watch it in the daytime, to prevent nightmares! lol
Yes I think the vampires who are born into the occult, have an advantage over the ones who are turned, they get their full powers faster. And the young ones will need to reach YA to get the full benefit.
I think Mr. VanGould was not only swayed by his daughter's pleading with him to let her boyfriend come stay, but because Waylan wasn't a werewolf any longer had a big effect. I think there was tension between the VanGould and the Wolff families.
LOL well my silly husband named that sim, Prince Albert Inacan. There is a tobacco you can buy in a pipe shop, called Prince Albert, It comes in a tin, a can. As a kid, he and his friends would make prank phone calls, one was to a tobacconist and they would ask 'Do you have Prince Albert in a can?'
"why yes we do."
"Well you better let him out!" lol silly little kids!?
Fabian is learning from the alchemy book. I have no clue what he found so fascinating! B) >:)
