Magicomedies
Been wanting to make some comedy stories for ages. Until I have time to write a longer one, I decided to set up this thread for funny and random little stories about the supernatural folk in my Sims 4...

Diary of a Mischief Maker (Narrated by Norrell Quest)
Hi. For those who don't know me, how dare you not know me?! I'm really someone you should know. Anyway, to the ones who, shockingly, haven't at least heard of my reputation, I'm Norrell. If you want the full title, His Royal Highness Prince Norrell Amadeus Moriarty Quest of South West Mageria, but that's far too much effort to write each time so you can just call me Norrell or The Lord of Mischief, Guitar Master Extraordinaire or even That Strangely Alluring Guy At The Bar, whatever you prefer. I don't mind. Where the eff was I? Oh yeah. This is the documentation of my mischievous exploits. As a professional practitioner in the arts of Illusion, Confusion and Magical Mischievous Mayhem, I felt it was necessary to have a written and visual record of my exploits, mainly for my own enjoyment but also so I can leave a legacy for future aspiring pranksters to look up to (though let it be known, if anyone copies my ideas, I will sue the skin off them. I don't care if I'm dead, I will come back from the grave and still sue).
So here it is...

November the Something of Some Year (Remembering exact dates isn't my thing):
https://i.imgur.com/EfoqBlj.png
Have been living in this city for a month now and realised I haven't done nearly enough spying on people. So today I decided to remedy that. First target: our neighbour. https://i.imgur.com/zEgqAvr.png Apparently he's some famous art critic but personally I think he's just a rich boy with a vendetta against the art world because his own art wouldn't even get picked up if it was going free in a dumpster. He made my brother cry once when judging at a charity art contest (Tadeo still hasn't shown his painting in public since) and as much as Tadeo bores me sometimes, if anyone messes with my family, they mess with me. I greeted him all nicey smiley in the hall of our apartment though and managed to slip a bug on him as we passed. Can't wait to see what juicy dirt I get on him. >:)
Took a stroll to the local art gallery, turned on the charisma and planted a few more bugs. Fortunately for me, I am a natural charmer so the locals didn't suspect a thing.
Hello, fellow fan of red clothing with gold embroidery, and what are your secrets?https://i.imgur.com/fW9hiXA.png
Had to plant a bug on this guy with the bag on his head too, because, well, he's a guy with a paper bag on his head. Wouldn't you want to know more? https://i.imgur.com/sH8rUnX.png I was tempted to conjure a gust of wind and remove the bag but then it occurred to me that one of the reasons for wearing it could be that he's carrying a contagious skin condition, which I don't want to get. I don't EVER judge people on their skin but do like to keep mine spot-free, thank you.
Couldn't leave without having a go on the piano, and also to drown out all the other performers there, because they were awful! Please, people, learn to play an instrument in tune before you perform in public! https://i.imgur.com/vSf00Gl.png
Also saw this absolutely rocking painting. https://i.imgur.com/xulI6NV.png
Which I stole. https://i.imgur.com/xzpUAw8.png I'll put it back later, somewhere else in the city.
I was hungry and fancied some authentic Sulanesian grub. So I decided to teleport to the islands of Sulani. (Because I'm spontaneous like that. Plus I wanted to show off my swimwear).
After eating, I found a boat without an owner and set off to find more spy targets (so many people just seem to leave their boats lying around in this place, they really should be more careful. Anyone could just come along and steal one ;) ).
Met this lady, who seems to live in a hut on her own little island and seems to have a dog, who leaves large claw marks all over her porch and front door. https://i.imgur.com/JVzCJUp.pngI asked her what her dog's name was and, despite the enormous drool stains on her coat, she emphatically denied having one. Okaaay then...
Cruised the ocean some more for a while. Definitely did not get lost. https://i.imgur.com/ebyEL2r.png
After a few more hours of not being lost, I ended up docking near this old shipwreck. I investigated, but then it was late and I was tired so decided to sleep in the bed. No one seemed to be there so I figured it was some sort of novelty bed and breakfast place. https://i.imgur.com/JalXNP2.png
Was woken up by weird noises and was more than a little freaked out to discover the place was haunted. I played it cool though. La la la. Yep, glowing, floating faces all around, that's all cool, totally fine. That puddle by the bed was already there when I got here. I'm just going to run to the bathroom because I suddenly feel like it. No, no I always run screaming to the bathroom in the mornings, that's my usual routine. https://i.imgur.com/iA3kSHZ.png
This one ghost though turned out to be a pretty cool guy. And I've always wondered what ghosts get up to when they think no one's watching. https://i.imgur.com/47fEj1C.png
It also turned out that the place wasn't a bed and breakfast at all, it was home to a very startled merman, whom I apologised to for my mistake. (Didn't mean to scare him. I thought he was one of the ghostly apparitions. So that's why I had to pick five different locks to get in the door). Thought it was best not to tell him about the slices of cake me and the ghost guy had helped ourselves to from his fridge as he was already pretty freaked out. I comforted him. You know, I have always wondered what merfolk get up to when they think they're not being watched. https://i.imgur.com/V5csOuj.png
It was then I realised that I hadn't been home all night. Probably best to go back to the apartment. Can't wait to listen in to all my bugs!
Later that day:
I'm annoyed. I'm more than annoyed, I am steaming with annoyance! Listened in on all my marks and got nothing I could use! All I got from my neighbour was snoring. The two from the gallery just complained about their love lives (Zzzzzzzzzz). From the lady on the solo island, all I could hear were these weird growling noises. Her dog must have sniffed out the bug on her coat or something. Ghost guy's one didn't even work. That 'works on anyone, anywhere' slogan on the spy bugs was total false advertising! The merman's one would have been more intriguing if he hadn't spoken in a language I couldn't understand most of the time (though I could get Taddie to translate it...)
I did hear something odd though. Later on he kept saying things like "I invite you to rest in the Realm beyond," and "Please don't leave ectoplasm all over that nice lady's house." There was also an unnerving amount of screaming (though that might have been him. Thought it was a bit high pitched but merfolk are known for having several-octave vocal ranges). This was like the middle of the night (I'm a night owl). What in this world does he do?!
