Ashes to Ashes: A Legacy [Temporary Hiatus 4/4]
Welcome, and thank you for checking out https://i.imgur.com/BxWTgGk.png This is a highly dramatic, plot-driven legacy story that follows Alexander Rosebrook, the grandson of one of the characters in my now-complete SimLit story, Dust to Dust. Though reading Dust to Dust is not necessary to understand/enjoy this story, I will caution you that this story does contain SPOILERS for Dust to Dust. If you plan on checking out Dust to Dust, I strongly recommend that you read it before beginning this legacy. :) Please click the link at the top of this post to check out my story :blush: Thank you so much for reading!
Day & Knight 4/29
I've always wanted to do the I'm a Lover Challenge. I love romances and ones with lots of twists and turns and drama! So, I hope you will like it. For those of you who want to take a look at the family tree, go here: DAY & KNIGHT FAMILY TREE Be aware that it is full of spoilers if you're new to the story! Photobucket has ruined the story here, so go to my website for the archive of ALL generations!!! DAY & KNIGHT ARCHIVE Generation One Generation Two GENERATION THREE GENERATION FOUR https://i.imgur.com/XbLIMIf.jpg GENERATION FIVE https://i.imgur.com/hy9kdkN.jpg GENERATION SIX https://i.imgur.com/u6KO1SE.jpg GENERATION SEVEN https://i.imgur.com/vXHY9nf.jpg So, without any more fanfare, here it is: Chapter 1.1 “Promise me, Alex,” Dad pleaded with me. He lay there on the hospital bed—a shriveled prune of a man from what he used to be. Seven years of chemo did that to a person. I swallowed, stroking his arm. “But Dad...how can I be both parents to Bri?” “You have to be. Promise.” Biting my lip, I thought about Mom and how she’d ditched us as soon as she found another man who wasn’t sick and kids who didn’t cramp her style. “I won’t be Mom.” My voice was harsh. I didn’t mean for it to come out that way, but I guess the bitterness hadn’t gone away even after six years. “Then be her father, Alex. She’s only ten. She has eight more years until she can live on her own. Y-You can work as a mechanic at your current job until then. That should earn enough to get by. After that, you can go to college. You’ll only be twenty-six. Not too old.” He squeezed my hand. “Promise.” I wanted to escape this nightmare. Seeing my father slowly deteriorate over the years had taken its toll on me, but here I was facing losing him for good and now, he was asking me to take over instead of shipping Brianna to my grandparents overseas. But I was only eighteen. How could I raise a ten year old by myself? I heard the words, “I promise,” come out of my mouth anyway. Tears stung my eyes. Dad couldn’t see me like this. It would hurt him too much. I had to be brave for him. And for my sister. Wiping my eyes and nose, I said, “Don’t worry. I’ll be her dad. I’ll make sure Bri’s taken care of.” Dad lifted the side of his mouth. “Thanks, Alex. I have no doubt you’ll do a great job. Hey... if I hadn’t said this to you in a while...” He covered my hand in his. “I love you, kid.” I smiled. “I love you, too, Dad.” Turning away, I wiped the tears streaming down my face. After the funeral, Bri and I said our last goodbyes to our father. I kissed his cold withered cheek before they closed up the casket. I’ll never forget the loud grinding of the hydraulic shovel, digging a six-foot hole in minutes. They set his casket in and dropped dirt on top and then it was over. All the visitors hugged us with gloomy looks and one by one they said their condolences and vanished. It was me and Bri. Alone. “Come on, Bri. It’s time to go home.” I wanted to get out of that dreadful cemetery. “How can we go without Daddy?” “I’m taking care of you now. Don’t worry.” “But...you’re not him. Who will tuck me in and read stories to me at night? Who will get rid of the monsters under the bed?” Holding my sister, I whispered, “I’ll be your dad from now on. No matter what happens, I’ll take care of you.” Bri looked into my eyes with her sad face. “You’ll never be Daddy.” She was right, of course, so I couldn’t argue. I only patted her on the shoulder and told her to come with me anyway. In the months that followed, I noticed I couldn’t earn enough money to keep us in food let alone pay all the bills. So I sold the house, car, anything that we didn’t need, then moved us to an area we could afford in Oasis Springs. Luckily, I found an old garage with a living area on the top floor. Nothing fancy, but it had four bedrooms, a living area and a kitchen. Plenty for me and my sister. And then I could have my own business fixing cars. It was pricey. I couldn’t buy it outright, but the landlord let me sublet it from him and he was more than happy that I could use the garage as it had been when he was young. All the renters before never used it. We could do this. My stomach plunged as I saw Mr. Richardson stroll into my garage. I hadn’t been able to overnight the part for his car and I knew he was going to be livid. The Richardsons basically own Oasis Springs and even though I’d never dealt with any of them before, their behavior was widely known. I was shell-shocked that his personal assistant had even called and brought his corvette to me in the first place. I thought rich guys used dealers, but I wasn’t going to argue with him. I needed the cash. What I didn’t expect was for the heir to the Richardson legacy—Knight Richardson himself—to pick it up in person. My heart beat like a jackrabbit getting chased by a fox. “H-Hello, Mr. Richardson,” I said, stalling. “Hey, kid. Just picking up my car.” He shot me a bright smile which only made me even more nervous. “Um...about that...it isn’t ready.” He arched an eyebrow. “What do you mean it isn’t ready? Didn’t you promise my assistant I could have it by today?” I flung my hands around, hoping to get my point across. “You see, I would have had it done. It’s actually easy to fix, but the part...it didn’t ship like they said it would. I’ll have it done by tomorrow.” Without another glance at me, Richardson marched into the shop area and tried to open the door to his car. When he couldn’t, he yelled like a spoiled two year old who was told he wouldn’t be getting any ice cream, pulling at his hair. “I’m sorry, Mr. Richardson. The car is locked and without the motherboard working, electronically it’s fried. A new one will fix everything. You’ve just got to wait one more day.” “I don’t have one more day. I need my car now.” “Don’t you have another car? I know your family is rich and...” He waved his arms angrily, “What would a snot nosed punk like you know anything about my family?” Plum. I knew I shouldn’t have mentioned his family. I didn’t like the guy but I needed the money. Kissing butt was the only remedy in this situation even though I hated to kowtow to people like him. But I was in the service business. Sometimes that was the name of the game. I backpedaled. “Listen, you are more than welcome to tow it somewhere else, but no matter where you take it, I can promise you it will take more time. Another garage hasn’t even ordered the part yet. The shipping company guaranteed it would show up tomorrow.” He jumped to his feet and shook a furious finger in my face. “Okay, punk, but if you don’t have it to me by tomorrow, I will personally rearrange your face. Is that clear?” I winced. “Yes, sir.” He stomped out of the shop, slamming the gate. Wham! I could only hope that plum part would come in the next day. I hated to see what kind of tantrum he’d pull if it wasn’t.Amazon Challenge-Tribe Wahine 3/5
I've plunged into the Amazon challenge and it's been so much fun! Thanks to @lovejess2 for recreating it from a Sims 3 version on Modthesims. For details, click here: The Amazon challenge. For fans--here is the current family tree (SPOILERS for those who haven't read through yet!) : TRIBE WAHINE FAMILY TREE Here's the generation five family tree update: TRIBE WAHINE 5th generation Also, as my tribe grew, I needed more than 8 sims to control in the household, so I use the larger household mod. Go here to download it and use in your game as well: Larger Household Mod I'm proud to say this won EA's Spring Story Contest. You can check out the article about it here: Tribe Wahine If you want to start your own challenge and would like to write a sim lit story too, check out @Julyvee94 's guide here: SimLit Guide To start out, you need a creator--basically, the leader--a queen of the tribe. Here is mine--Abra Wahine Notice her necklace--that will be handed down to each creator as well as her bracelet. This is her with her two slaves--Akamu Slave and Anakoni Slave This is the beginning compound--the amazon's complex where only women live. Slave hut Pit of Death The boys weren't working, so Abra, my creator, had to punish them by yelling. It worked! When it's time to breed, Abra does a ceremony with the chosen slave. Little does he know this will seal his doom. When I first read the rules, I thought breeding slaves had to be terminated after breeding, but this is not the case. I didn't realize this until much later...unfortunate! But I'd have to excommunicate the breeding slaves anyway. You don't want everyone related to each other nor do you want your women to become attached. Here, Abra finds out she's pregnant. She has mixed emotions because she must inform Akamu that it's his time to sacrifice himself for his tribe. She's breaking the news to Akamu. So sad! But she's a strong amazon and knows what's good for her tribe. Akamu is shaved and painted and given his last meal at night. When dawn breaks, he will be sacrificed. Sacrificing ceremony. Akamu was a good slave, so he receives the rights of an honorable death. Akamu was very strong--he lasted all day until the middle of the night. My other slaves went much quicker. He really was my best slave. I miss him! For some reason, Grimmy wanted to have a discussion about Abra's unusual death practices. And he didn't wait until she was decent! She made her case for her culture, he pecked out a few notes on his ipad, and misted away. (Abra: "Sorry, Grimmy, we're not like other sims who have burgers and fries! We eat off the land." Time passed and the work was too much for Abra. She wasn't making much money at her job and she was down one slave. She needed a woman! Someone who could tend the garden, fish, and hunt for treasure. This is Adda Green, her gatherer. I decided to make the other tribeswomen have their own surnames so we could keep up with which child was attached to which woman. All outfits will have green in them for my gatherers. Adda is formally sworn in and ready to work! Later, Akamu visits the creator. They share a special closeness. It's good for the clan that he leaves. Abra thinks about banishing his spirit, but can't bring herself to do it. She doesn't tell her gatherer, Adda, about her attachment. This could spell trouble in her tribe down the road. Hope you like it. I know I'm having a blast playing it--especially with this strange culture. I'm thinking of making a whole amazon village, too. If you need an extra slave, I put the early version of Akamu on the Gallery. He's listed under Chris Slave and you can find him with the hashtag #amazonchallenge or go to my page under pammiechick. Here's a link to the gallery that hopefully will work: Chris Slave I made him very slave worthy--angling ace, loves outdoors, neat. He's the best slave I've had so far--I've had five. One ran away and I still have two. Lots of drama! ;)3D Pruetts: Jan 12 - Stories by Jes2G
It's story time!! :D Welcome to the home of all of my stories! I hope you enjoy them. Here are the stories you can find here: CURRENT Delicious Dishes & Dreams (aka, "Pruetts in 3D") This is a story I'm writing for the Restaurant Challenge. It is a Pruett Family Legacy spin-off. You could also think of it as an alternate ending of Pruett Family Legacy. Jonathan Pruett always wanted to be a famous restauranteur with restaurants all around the world. Life throughs lots of curve balls at him. Will he be able to accomplish this dream? COMPLETED Keeping Up With the Joneses (Completed May 2019) This is a neighborhood rotation. Things aren’t what they seem in the Courtyard Lane neighborhood of Willow Creek. The seemingly quiet, middle class neighborhood is wrought with secrets, pretentiousness, and envy. It all started the day the Jones family moved in. Discovering Juliana (Completed September 2018) A young, foreign girl is forced to emigrate to Willow Creek to escape the poverty and violence of her homeland. She does not speak the local language and must learn how to survive on her own. Pruett Family Legacy (Completed February 2016) Xavier Pruett left home attempting to prove his mother wrong by not going to college and still being successful. He took the inheritance from his father's death and bought a plot of land in Willow Creek. He got a job and looked for a wife as he embarked upon a journey to forge a successful family legacy. From humble beginnings, the Pruetts rose from being just another family to becoming legendary pillars of the community. Crazy Brady's Boot Camp (Season 1 Completed March 2016) Six contestants embark upon a four week fitness challenge with celebrity trainer Brady Pruett (generation 7 heir in Pruett Family Legacy), his wife, Viviana Harmon, and the host, chef, and coach, Sugar Maple Bough. Each week, the audience (you, the reader) will vote for the top three contestants who deserve to remain at The Lodge. One contestant will be immune, and one of the other two with the fewest votes will go home. F.I.S.H. (Completed January 2018) In this Pruett Family Legacy spin-off, the Sims Intelligence Agency (S.I.A.) recruits a newlywed man to track down some local henchman of a Sims trafficking organization. He has to live a double life as he discovers which one of his friends is working for the trafficker. He gets used to having alibis and cover stories with everyone except his wife who is very attached to him. The real is not ridding the world of evil; it's how to keep his wife content without blowing his cover. ONGOING Balderdash These are the untold stories of my Sims we don’t know well or haven’t seen. The titles of these stories are words, known and unknown, and the stories attempt to explain/define said word directly or abstractly. PERMANENT HIATUS The Wonder Kingdom In this Pruett Family Legacy spin-off, Leliana thought the government was still after her and convinced Devan that they should leave town. They found a new life in Newcrest after they made a run for it under the pretense of their long honeymoon. See what's in store for them as they experience the life they always wanted together. My SimSelves also make special guest appearances here and there to update you all on the goings on and also presenting their goings on. LET’S PLAYS YouTube I'd love for you to check it out! I'm doing the Random Challenge by @midnitetech, and I also made up a challenge called The Minimalist Challenge. Here are the guidelines if you'd like to try it! The first episode explains the guidelines in more detail and how I actually came up with this. 1. Create a Sim with three of the following traits: creative, genius, gloomy, goofball, hot-headed, romantic, self-assured, bookworm, geek, perfectionist, childish, clumsy, insane, lazy, loves the outdoors, neat, slob, squeamish, bro, evil, family oriented, good, hates children, loner, mean, noncommittal, outgoing 2. Select an aspiration from one of these categories: deviance, love, family, nature 3. Move your Sim onto any vacant lot and build a house and furnish it however you want with only these items: bed, dresser, couch/love seat, fridge, kitchen sink, stove, grill (if you want), fire pit, trash can, wood bench, and an island (width of at least 2). 4. Work on your handiness and gardening skills to survive! GOALS: Live completely off the land. This means your Sim will must not have a job. Your Sim will feed him/herself, furnish the house, and pay bills with the works of their hands. (e.g. produce and items from the wood bench) Spend as little money as possible. You may want to track your finances to add a level of difficulty. Only purchase things that your Sim absolutely needs or will be helpful to them. (leaving this open for interpretation) Furnish your house with handmade furniture Prepare only food that you catch, grow, or harvest (turn on "fresh ingredients," and only prepare foods that you have all the ingredients for) (optional) Find a like-minded spouse (e.g. with similar type traits--watch video (around 6:20) for clarity). TIPS: Get your Sim to level 2 of the handiness skill as soon as possible and craft plant pots/planters and get a garden going. Also, catch a fish the first day to have food for the next day. Get your Sim to level 2 of the cooking skill to grill fruit and baked potatoes. It would be most beneficial for your Sim to live on a lot that is near a public bathroom for easy accessibility. If you want, you may purchase a portable shower and place it outside. (going to the gym a few times a day will get really old really fast!) The long lifespan is probably your best bet, but for a real challenge, try the normal lifespan. If you are doing the optional goal to find a spouse, you may turn aging off until the house is completely furnished and you are ready to get married if you would like. CONCESSIONS: When your Sim gets to level 5 and 10, give him/her something he/she really wants! (e.g. that pesky pool whim!!)
New Beginnings - Building Newcrest *07-11-22*
Thank you for stopping by to check out my story! <3 <3 <3 New Beginnings a spin off from my previous story Starting Over – Escape to Nowhere. The Build Newcrest Challenge is a basis for this story along with some ideas from I’m a Lover Challenge to add drama. I will be loosely following the rules of the two challenges as I merge them together. The rules will be a guideline for the story so there could be some spoilers - but probably not too many as I may mix it up depending upon how I see the next generation going. Ben Murdock, the 'founder', is the second son of the Heroine of Starting Over. You don't have to read that story to understand what it going on in this one. If you want to read it, it is complete and linked at the top of this page and in my siggy below. This thread will be used to link to chapter updates and reader comments. Enjoy!

http://i.imgur.com/8luoHAM.png WHAT GENRE: Romance, Drama, Self Discovery Abby Greene : Drama Queen, singing star, brat, diva or just confused ... take a pick! Abby has reached the stage of maturity or let's say immaturity? And her life has taken a massive turn for the worst. The only way Abby can deal is continue down a road of rebellion against this brand new life change. But in the meantime, making mistakes, finding love, and finding herself. This teenager is still unsure what she wants, and is striving to find it as she is growing up. It's only a matter of time before Abby begins to realise how many fine lines she will cross between love, hate, loss and gain. This story was completed in 2006 when i was playing The Sims 2. It was very popular at the time. And since i spent countless hours on it ... I had a read through and decided i wanted to re create it and re write it again. Though i am sticking to the main plot of the story and characters, i have made it a little more in depth. The original first chapter had a page and a half of words. After re-writing, it has extended to 3 and a half. I have found that re recreating the pictures has been incredibly hard. So bare with me, I am still in the middle of re-writing and getting my pictures up. I recently had a friend proof check the first chapter for me. And she immediately asked... Is this story about you? Did i go through this... The answer is no. This story has no real relation to me whatsoever. Though cities and things like that are relevant to characters etc. This Story is currently on WORDPRESS if you care to take a read :) Alternatively you can follow me on tumblr to be alerted of my updates! Feel free to comment here or there ... either is fine. *Note* My Wordpress version is NSFW. CHAPTER TIMELINE : Several chapters will be released weekly. READING CIRCLE: Willingly Writing.
