Thanks for your comment and question, Jack.
Too many for me to recall, they are all in the graveyard, however. Many of them due to computer/file glitches of various kinds, and some of them due to various mistakes on my part, including:
- wrong sim eating ambrosia
- forgetting to paint something
- breaking another rule by mistake
As for Thornton's dalliances and the gardening and fishing, let's just say that he wasn't exactly the best gardener or fisher. He managed to grow life plants, and then hit the ladies around town. He was seen sneaking into Simon's bedroom of a night and reading fishing and gardening stories to him. Simon has officially become the gardener and fisherman for the dynasty now, allowing Thornton to return to performing 'house calls'. Simon has caught ten angel fish and populated the household pond with them. When he reaches YA, he'll head out for deathfish. He and his twin, Mary were born within 4 days of the start of the game, for that very purpose. Also, Mary is taking over the cooking duties from Morgana (and is a natural cook), unlike her mother.
Please not, pictures are coming for this post, just ran out of time for them to be cropped, uploaded to my site and linked to this thread, they should be around soonish.
Chapter Two: Mrs Wolff finds some Steel
One day at the salon1, Morgana was speaking to Judy Bunch who was also getting a haircut. Judy was commenting that Jamie Jolina had a nooboo that looked a lot like the pictures of the two nooboos that Morgana was proudly showing. Morgana commented that all nooboos look alike, and that there would be no way that Thornton would be cheating on her, especially not with a tramp like Jamie.
Later, while picking up some baby formula for the twins, Cornelia and Agnes were also in the baby aisle. Agnes had a noticeable baby bump, and Morgana asked about the father. Agnes and Cornelia didn't say a thing, but the looks they shared spoke volumes. Morgana was crushed and left without the baby formula.
Then, as she was walking by the theatre she saw Thornton and Blair sneaking backstage with furtive glances over their shoulders. Then, shortly after, both were being thrown out of the theatre, stark naked and with their clothes over their arms. Morgana fled to the bistro in tears.
Townies came and went, Jamie and Agnes and Blair and Thornton were on everyone's lips, Morgana just wanted to scream at them, but she didn't. She walked around in a daze, until she bumped into someone. Looking up, she saw it was Christopher Steel, the newcomer, who was oh so handsome. He offered to buy her a meal2, and she accepted the offer in a heartbeat. They were just friends, he made her laugh, he made her feel good, good in a way that Thornton never could. He was kind as well, and before she knew it, she was kissing him, and in public, but it was on a second date, and it was at the theatre. Unlike Thornton and Blair, Morgana and Christopher weren't found backstage.
Morgana was expecting a little brother or sister for Simon and Mary, and the rumours started up about Morgana and Christopher, but Morgana didn't care. She was happy. For the first time in a while, since she had her first two children, she was deliriously happy.
The twins aged into toddlers and Morgana was ever so grateful that Abraham was there to care for them and be there for her when she needed someone to talk to, laugh with or cry with. He was such a good man and he practiced his spellcraft almost as much as he painted.
Almost as soon as the twins became children, their little 1/2 brother, Andrew was born. The twins also had other half brothers and sisters, Latonya Jolina the vampiric daughter of Jamie Jolina and Ramiro Crumplebottom, the mermaid son of Agnes Crumplebottom. Latonya was just younger than the twins, while Ramiro was a fair bit younger. Due to their dalliances while still married, both Thornton and Morgana became known as cheaters, but Morgana picked up a clean slate and a fresh start, and was faithful to Christopher, while Thornton delighted in his love life.
Morgana received a text message from Thornton, telling her he was breaking up, and she went to Christopher (who by this stage spent virtually all his time at the Dynasty House). He proceeded to console her, and she was overjoyed to learn she was going to have a fourth child.
Meanwhile, Thornton tried again with Blair and returned to Jamie as well. Rumours spread like wildfire around the Valley, that Thornton Wolff had a child out of wedlock.
To be honest, it was two children, not one. The latest additions to the growing horde were Esmerelda Wainwright (a fairy) and Ryan Jolina (a normal sim).
Morgana was pregnant with her fourth child, and was eating apples.
Finally the big day came and she rode her bike to the hospital.
1 Morgana didn't actually go to the salon, that is just creative license.
2 Morgana actually bought the meal, once again, creative license
