Nooo! The suspense is killing me!
Zack and Marjorie make me laugh so hard, every time! Especially Zack. He just knows how to work a crowd with his sleepwear, doesn't he?

I enjoy killing people with suspense  ;D He really does. He is quite fond of it.

You can always rely on zombie-Branch!

Congrats to Marjorie. *confetti and noisemakers*

As her first best friend, he had to be there for her at this important time. Marjorie thanks you for the recognition. I think it was about time.
At least someone appreciates me! Do you know how hard it is to do all of those things?
I still don't think it needs to take twenty to thirty weeks!

Congrats Marjorie! I hope there was chimes. ;)
Thank you. So does Zack. Marjorie is less concerned with having children and more concerned with getting recognition for her many accomplishments.


Chapter 27: Ending the Suspense (Again)

In the morning, Marjorie woke from a sound sleep.


Ugh, I don't feel so good.




She quickly flies to the loo, which is still across the lot. I'm going to have to fix that.
Marjorie: Bad Watcher!


Meanwhile, Zack enjoyed a nice, sound, uninterrupted sleep.


M: I'm sure something to drink will make me feel better.
I'm sure it won't. You're in denial.


M: For some reason I am really craving watermelons!
Muahaha. My master plan is working.


At a tip-off from me, Zack makes Watermelon Pancakes instead of Flame Fruit that morning. The man doesn't seem to wear clothes anymore.
Zack: Why would I, when all the lovely Forum ladies appreciate my physique so much?


They're Perfect, of course. Oh how I love the irony of a vampire cook.



Zack wants you to know that not only does he wear clothes, they are very distinguished ones indeed.
Z: Look who made Celebrated Five-Star Chef?
Congratulations, Zack.
Z: Thank you thank you.


Now back to work.


Random visitor on the lot (must be paparazzi): Boooo! Marjorie, how dare you WooHoo with your own husband? He's an occult, for Watcher's sakes!
My question is, why does the world town even know about it?
Random paparazza: We read the Forum.
Oh. Well, that would do it.


M: Honey, my back really aches. Could you...?
Z: Of course, elm blossom.




Marjorie suddenly has a desire for a new wardrobe...

And no, you don't get to see it yet.

Her subconscious knows, even if she doesn't.



Daylight zombie: Hey, why can't I get in here and eat these delicious plants?
You do, you die. Again. For real this time.



M: Awww, nooboo.
Ha-ha!



Talk about the circle of life. Right as Marjorie is discovering that she is with nooboo, not one but two zombies go to meet their Watcher.


Grim: All right, move it along, people. I haven't got all night. There's another double zombie pickup across town.


Elder zombie: Oh man, Grim is taking zombies from this lot! I head the owners have a deal with Death! Let's shamble out of here!
Pigtail zombie: I don't believe in that superstition. I am very comfortable right here in this convenient outdoor rocking chair, thank you.




Compulsory 'Grim-doing-something-funny' shot:



Meanwhile, blissfully ignorant of the goings-on outside, Marjorie and Zack sleep, Marjorie dreaming of the little secret that is just her own for this one more night.



Okay, you can see Marjorie's maternity wardrobe now.

How dare an occult Sim woohoo with another occult Sim whom she is also married to!  The shame!

Seriously, I'm jealous of everyone's wacky Grim shots.  My Grim is such a no nonsense guy.  He always just shows up, does his thing, and takes off.

Okay, just kidding (maybe). I can't wait to see the nooboos! A combination of Zack and Marjorie . . . ooh la la!

Grim isn't a drinker in my games. Maybe Marjorie is just that good at mixology?

Also, OMG NOOBOO. :D

Indeed! Young people these days! (Haha she is older than almost everyone)

Grim is not as social with my Sims, but I catch him when I can for those coveted shots.

*Whistles* Woohoo, Zack! Work it!

Yeah baby!
Let me tell you, there are some good genes at play here. I am biased, of course.

Yes.

Also, OMG NOOBOO. :D

I know! Finally!

Guys, I wasn't going to post again this soon, but your enthusiasm has convinced me. Here is more Callahan goodness for you.

Chapter 28: A Child is Born

Assorted ghosts and zombies, a variety of which are constantly about the place: Have you heard? Have you heard the news?
Marjorie was mad to think anything in the life of a celebrity can be a secret.

(Side note: I encourage all the ghosts and zombies. I think it adds an appropriate feel to a Dynasty which requires a mausoleum.)

Marjorie (just a little too loudly): Well we'd better keep trying for a nooboo, right?

Zack knows, but he is going along with it.


That day finds the Callahans at the library, reading up on all the nooboo knowledge they'll be needing.





This is hilarious to me. Why are you walking like that?
Marjorie: Because I'm expecting!
You're as thin as a rail, how can you even tell?


Not even pregnancy can keep Marjorie from her garden.


It was verrry important that she eat Goopy Carbonara at a park. Moonlight Falls is of course full of parks, so she just walks to the nearest one.
Keep eating, maybe you'll start to show!


That's more like it!


Now you look like a pregnant woman.
M: *grumble grumble* feel *grumble* you try it *grumble* can talk.
What was that?
M: Nothing.



M: Oh hey Zack, I guess it worked after all.
Z (not looking up): Mmmhmmm

He's very deeply engrossed in his book. It's a recipe.
M (louder): Did you hear me honey, I said it worked!
Z: Yes dear.



M: He didn't even listen to me. I think he doesn't care.
That or he's known for a long time because he's not as clueless as you.



M: This pregnancy gig is pretty sweet! Zack cooks me whatever I want to eat!


Still eating watermelons though, I notice.
M: Yeah, he can't cook me those.



Uh-oh.



Zack! It's happening!



M: You didn't tell me it would HURT!
You wouldn't have gone along with it.



M: Well why didn't you give me the optioooooon?


Z: Aaah! Okay, we're okay! You're okay! Just breathe! It's gonna be fine!
Try taking your own advice there, Zack.


What on earth could this thought bubble mean?


It wouldn't be the Callahans without a zombie in attendance.
M: I hope she's not the midwife!


The zombie was making her nervous, so Marjorie heads inside. For some reason this did not occur to her before.


It worked! Meet Vervain, everybody.

But as you can see, she is not our heir.


Z: She's perfect.



Yes, but she is also a fairy, rendering her ineligible for heirness.

M: You mean I have to do that AGAIN?
Don't worry, you'll forget.
M: How incredibly comforting.

I think we'd better go and let Marjorie cool off a bit!

Welcome Vervian. Good thing she isn't the heir as she isn't a rainboo. Congrats to Marjorie for completing her requirements as well.

Welcome to the family, Vervian! Let's hope you look a lot like your mom.

It's too bad that she isn't the heir, but at least having a baby gives Zack and Marjorie something to do while waiting for the next one!

I've only just caught back up again, and this story is still hilarious as ever. "You mean I have to do that AGAIN?"  ;D

Welcome, Vervian! I'm sure you'll end up knowing more ghosts and zombies than actual people. :P

Her name is Vervain, actually. It's another name for the herb verbena. If you read the Wiki article here perhaps you can guess why I picked that name?

Welcome Vervian. Good thing she isn't the heir as she isn't a rainboo. Congrats to Marjorie for completing her requirements as well.

Thank you. Yes, we are hoping of course for a rainboo heir. Fingers crossed!

Welcome Vervian! She will be a cutie. Good luck with more nooboos Marjorie lol. :P

She sure will! Just you wait and see! Marjorie is not excited, hahaha.

Welcome to the family, Vervian! Let's hope you look a lot like your mom.

It's too bad that she isn't the heir, but at least having a baby gives Zack and Marjorie something to do while waiting for the next one!

Zack is deeply offended that you don't think she should look just like him.

Yes, their lives were getting rather dull and repetitive, but no more!

I've only just caught back up again, and this story is still hilarious as ever. "You mean I have to do that AGAIN?"  ;D

Welcome, Vervian! I'm sure you'll end up knowing more ghosts and zombies than actual people. :P

Thank you ever so much. My strategy for this story is thus: when I think of something, I write it. In RL I tend to filter myself more, but here I just let it all out there and hope most of it is funny. Glad that seems to be working!

That does seem to be the case, doesn't it?

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Nooboos

So, Marjorie, how are you doing?
Marjorie: I am holding the baby so I can stay calm. I'm still mad at you.
You'll get over it. We have decades to go together.
M: Not if I crash your file.
*shudders* Don't even talk like that.


An addition to the master bedroom became necessary with Vervain's birth. I think this blends nicely.


Even as an infant, Vervain is no stranger to death. How could she be, with a skeleton nursemaid and ghost minders?


As she must do on all festive occasions, Marjorie threw a fairy house party to celebrate Vervain's birth. Either that, or her Fun meter is lower than usual lately.


Of course, there are other ways to raise the Fun meter.


Zack: Now that that ghost is out of here, what do you say we get started on the next nooboo?
M: Now,
this part I don't mind!




Here's a time when being a Heavy Sleeper comes in very handy. Zack is not so thrilled about having the baby's cot in the same room that he sleeps. Even though Bonehilda is nearly always first there.


Marjorie once again wakes up feeling a little under the weather. Perhaps this thought bubble is indicative?
M: Oohhhh, not this again. I hope this one is the heir!


She takes a little time to rock with Vervain one last time as an infant.


Then she takes her to the cake. No sense having a baby around for another two days.


Too good not to share.


Awww! She got Mummy's ears!


It's pretty clear this one is going to be a Daddy's girl. Aren't her wings lovely?


She got Mummy's hair colour too. Here are her maveover shots:

Isn't she a little cutie?

That's it.  My next thread is going to need rainboo genes and pointy ears.  She is completely adorable.

Sorry, Zack; you know that the the entire world should be your clone! It's just that . . . erm . . . having another sim living in the same household who looked like you would destroy the hotness-o-meter of everyone reading?

The nooboo is so cute! I know everyone loves the werewolf toddlers, but personally I like the fairies the most!
