Lothario: An Unofficial Immortal Dynasty (Updated 29 April)

[reggikko]

@oshizu, as Nettlejuice said, it's a hair from one of the expansion packs. That took place in an alternate file because I had to create Mitzy for the scene.

@wfgodot, it gets weirder.

@Shewolf13, he really doesn't. But he's doing well. He's almost finished his two aspirations and is Level 6 and on the verge of promotion in his career.

Thanks, everyone, for reading. Don has gotten himself into quite a pickle. I'll have another update in a couple of days.

I love this - are you following all the normal rules, or freestyling all the way?  Actually, don't tell - let's keep it all as a surprise! 

And I'm glad it's going to get wierder still!  Bookmarked

CHAPTER 1: CURIOUSER AND CURIOUSER



DON: Pardon me, but do you mind if I sit here for a minute? I'm trying to avoid that woman jogging by. No, don't look!
JANA: Of course I don't mind if you sit here. I've been wanting to talk to you. I called three times last night but you never picked up. Are you being a naughty boy, Don? You know how upset I get when you ignore me.
DON: Not again. What is with this town? Look, I think there's been some sort of mistake. I have no idea who you are. Now, if you'll excuse me I think I'll just be on my way.
JANA: Are we doing that role playing thing again? <giggles>



JANA: Hello there handsome stranger. May I offer you this perfect red rose?
DON: I guess?
JANA: You're not doing it right. You're supposed to say something romantic back.
DON: Um, like I was saying. I really don't know who you are and I should, uh, be somewhere else now.
JANA: I get it! You're like an amnesiac, right? Ooh, that could be fun.



JANA: Maybe this will spark your memory. <SMOOCH>



DON: WHOA! What the heck, lady?
JANA: <pouts> This isn't as fun as the last time, Don.

Later, at the gym



NINA: Hey Don.
DON: This is getting ridiculous. Hello. Apparently you know me?
NINA: What? Of course I know you, silly. What do you mean?
DON: Are we dating?
NINA: I don't think Mom would like that very much.
DON: I'm feeling a little shaky today. Brain fog or something. Humor me and tell me your name?



NINA: Dina, he's acting like he doesn't know me. Imagine. Okay, Don. I'll speak slowly. I'm Nina and this is my sister Dina. Nina and Dina Caliente.
DON: The Caliente women!
DINA: Well, duh.
NINA: You weren't acting all weird at breakfast. What's going on, Don?
DON: Okaaayyy, So, I had breakfast with the two of you this morning?
NINA: And Mom.
DON: Are we related?



DINA: Oh, I'm sure you'd love to be related to our mother's money. I don't have time for this. I need to work out before my shift starts.
DON: I should get going, too. I'll see you around, I'm sure.
NINA: Bye, Mr. Mysterious.



LACIE: Oh, gosh darn you, Mitzy Schindler!



LACIE: Oh, hi. I'm sorry for my profanity. I'm just so mad I could spit!
DON: I heard you mention Mitzy Schindler. I just bought some property through her office yesterday.
LACIE: Oh, you're the one? Mitzy was supposed to hold that property for me but when I got to town today she'd already sold it to someone else. And now she says nothing else is available. I don't know what I'm going to do. Oh, my! Pardon my manners. My mama would tan my hide for not offering a proper introduction. I'm Lacie Feldman and it is a right pleasure to meet you Mr....
DON: You don't know my name?
LACIE: Should I? Are you someone famous? I'm afraid I'm not very good at keeping up with pop culture. I spend most of my time gardening. I just love being outside in the fresh air!
DON: My name is Don Lothario and I am very pleased to meet you, Lacie Feldman. In fact, you have no idea just how thrilled I really am.



DON: I don't mind at all if you want to stay at my place until you figure something out. I feel awful that you're stranded with no place to stay because of me.
LACIE: I'm sure it wasn't your fault. You probably offered Mitzy more money. That's all her type is interested in. No integrity. Are you a man of integrity, Don Lothario?
DON: I sure try to be.
LACIE: Good enough! I'd be ever so grateful for a place to stay.



DON: I should warn you that all I have right now is a tent and a bathroom. I haven't really started fixing the place up yet.
LACIE: Just like camping! How fun is that? Let's stop by the camping supply place on the way back and I'll pick up a tent, too. It wouldn't be proper for me to share yours since we've only just met and all. Do you think they'll have pink? Pink is my signature color.
DON: I'd never have guessed. Love the socks.
LACIE: Thanks! I have it on good authority that they are all the rage these days.

Later that night



DON: Nothing like a little fishing to melt away the day's stresses. Hey there, little guy. You sure are a pretty one.



DON: Maybe someone at work will be able to tell me what's going on here. If there is something odd about the town I'm sure the guys down at the lab are researching it.



 

[oshizu]

Hahahaha, that was hilarious! 

I loved how he has no idea why everyone already acts like he should know them.
That scene with the woman who thought he wanted to role-play was too funny.
It's actually quite adorable--watching Don being rather shy and completely confused.

The final two scenes where we can spot a mysterious doppelganger...oh oh oh!


P.S. Is Lacie a distant relative of the Behrens? Dem socks!

[Bokavoy]

I really liked this.
It's interesting that Don doesn't remember anyone. *hmm*

[Shewolf13]

Wait a minute... in that last shot, the one with Bella Goth... is that- is that Don?! Wow this just gets better and better!

[wfgodot]

That is SO funny!  I thought you'd just start a new neighborhood and move Don into his own place.  Not start a completely new Don and plunk him down in the midst of the old Don! 
Well, all the confusion is starting to make some sense now!
Will Don befriend his own self???  That would be something else.  I can't wait

(And I had to laugh at Jana and the role playing situation!)

[Playalot]

What a great twist on a 'normal' immortal dynasty. Can't wait to see how this all pans out! 

[Nettlejuice]

Ah, Don in the background! Two Dons in one world, this is going to be so much fun ^^

[reggikko]

Thanks for reading and commenting, everyone.

@wfgodot I was going to move Don out of the Caliente house and start like that but then I came up with the idea to have two Dons. Expect many shenanigans to come.

I actually decided to restart because I wanted to change a couple of things plot-wise. It's tricky doing the actual dynasty requirements while writing a story that's already in my head, so there's some juggling of timelines and recreating scenes, but it's been fun so far.

P.S. Is Lacie a distant relative of the Behrens? Dem socks!

@oshizu I had to get the infamous socks in there somewhere!

Wait a minute... in that last shot, the one with Bella Goth... is that- is that Don?! Wow this just gets better and better!

@Shewolf13 Yes, Don AND Bella. VERY IMPORTANT.

What a great twist on a 'normal' immortal dynasty. Can't wait to see how this all pans out!

@Playalot I may have let out a small squee when I saw you commented. Thanks!

Ah, Don in the background! Two Dons in one world, this is going to be so much fun ^^

@Nettlejuice You can never have too may Dons.

[Magpie2012]

Oh, you just KNOW this is going to be good :-) Can't wait to read more!
