Chapter 1, Part I: The Immortal Beginnings
And the Saga begins!
So the very first thing that happened when I let these girls run loose was a mad dash to the digital fish window and then straight for the hot tub, where they all just sat and soaked for a while. I decided to let them have the relaxation time, because they were about to be very busy.
After some time just enjoying the summer rays and the sauna, I had the girls get to work. Nihm began her gardening, Juno started cooking meals for everyone, and Winnie stuck her nose right in a logic book. Before I could even get Arie to a community lot, Winnie had gained her first logic skill. WTH, girl? Anyway, so, my computer decided not to save the picture of Arie scouting out the goods at the local Library, but there were some rather attractive fellows. The enjoyable part of this town is that it's a custom town called
Anne Arbor which I populated with NRAAS Story Progression. So it's a combination of random townies and my random bin sims mixed together, and mating and all that. So, not too many uglies. I'll make sure to post some pictures of the uglies when I find them.
Anyway, so Arie tried her hand at flirting with a stud in town named Roman Vesper. They hit it off right away and right when she was about to invite him over, the jerk decided to go to work. You frustrate me with your responsibilities, Mr. Vesper! Anyway, so Arie went home because she was all sorts of red in energy and hunger, and I had forgotten about the other girls so so were they. So I got them all fed and bathed and all, and then sent them to bed. When Arie woke up the next morning, she pulled out her phone to give Roman a little ring-a-ding. Good news, he didn't have anything better to do (Direct quote. Really, dude?) and stopped by in the most godawful overalls in the world.
Is that doesn't kill the mood, nothing will. And typical Arie decides to greet him in her PJs, aka underwear. Guess she's not risking letting him leave this time. Smart girl.
She lures him into the hot tub and he is all shades of thrilled about that. And after a bit, they stumble out of the hot water-- Arie gets dressed and Roman decides to stay in his... weird cargo shorts bathing suit, and Arie finally gets some pay off for all her hard work.
(I also would like to say this may be the first time in sim history that I have gotten to the point of make-out while the sims were "Good friends" and not "Romantic Interests.")
And bada bing, Arie throws out some of her famous love goddess moves and we have lift off.
And not only has Arie received what she wanted, I lost my mind when I heard the chimes right away. Wham, bam, thank you ma'am. Child Number 1 is on the way.
At this point, everyone's all hungry and junk, so I send them all to the kitchen. This is when I look over at the grassy area and see this nonsense going down:
The stride of pride and the most certifiable smile on Roman's face. Arie's all, thank god I'm pregnant because I would like you off my premises stat.
So this is when I start to notice my other girls. Nihm and Juno are getting pretty friendly. Nihm is always trying to talk about composting, so I'm surprised she hasn't scared anyone off yet. But she's still super adorable and that haircut is one of my favorites ever. Not everyone can pull it off though.
And while I was making sure Arie got her breakfast, I panned over and lost it when I saw this.
THERE'S A HANDPRINT, REALLY? I can't. Roman, you are so, so crazy. I hope your child is a little more stable. Though I feel kind of tempted to give him the insane trait when he's born. So at this point, I have Juno-- the mom of the house-- kick him out. Byyee, don't get your crazy everywhere on the way out.
Nihm's being all cute and watering her plants, making sure that the girls have food to eat and produce to sell. She's a productive member of the family and everyone should be very grateful to her. (She may be my favorite of the sisters. I seriously think it's just the haircut though.)
The next day, after a few boring hours of skill building with the sisters, we have this lovely moment:
Arie's starting to show, and she actually looks kind of happy about it, despite her extreme abhorrence of children. And all the vomiting she's been doing. I guess fire goddesses don't care about that stuff. Good on her, then, I guess.
Once Arie realizes she is officially pregnant, she is off to do two of her favorite things:
Painting,
And looking in the mirror.
It's at this point that Nihm decides to take a break from working out and take a dip in the hot tub.
She is seriously so adorable!
And Arie takes a break from admiring herself to join her sister.
The boobs on these girls is kind of unbelievable. I think I spent too much time with the endowments slider.
While those two sisters slack off, Winnie is hard at work being her academic little self and putting that logic skill on lock. When she is not eating or peeing, she is reading up on logic.
This is another haircut that I love. It really fits her as well.
The girls head to bed to rest up for the next day. They're doing a great job of staying on task. This is in no part thanks to me because I am obviously more interested in things like haircuts and hot tubs. This could prove to be problematic. Hmm.
