CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHTNoelle: Hey, I can talk!
Tatiana: LOON, THEY'RE GETTING LOOSE AGAIN!
I don't have a title for her story yet, so until then she'll just be floating around. Oh, and here's another character for you guys to meet.
Jahiline: -blank stare-
Beatrix: Is she still not fully developed?
No, she's always like that.
Tatiana: Why are so many of your characters so young?
Jahiline: Actually, I am-
SHH! Too soon. Anyway, that's because it's going to be a coming-of-age novel. Now, lets get on with this one.
There is a bit of a nectar overflow in the house, so on Saturday night everyone drank at least five glasses of nectar before bedtime. Even Elisabeth got in on the action!
She's aging up to young adult very soon, and I still haven't found a prospective husband. Well, I didn't, but one of my friends hijacked the file and picked out a bunch. Before I knew it, my friend had me planning a party at Lost Willow Park so Elisabeth could get more aquainted with these men. My friend dubbed it a "hunk party".
Ever so innocent, she spent her time catching butterflies.
Though she did sneak some nectar over to help with the backlog.
At the party, Elisabeth got to know a young adult named Jimmy Groves. She's friends with his younger brother Garland, but Garland is quite a bit younger than her. We're officially at the halfway point, so I need to strategize. I'm pretty much trying to call upon my nonexistent math skills for this, so I'll need to get my genius little brother to devise a formula for me so that I can have room for generation eight with no mishaps.
But back to Jimmy. I forgot to grab a picture, but he has very beautiful light blue eyes, tan skin, and messy brown hair. He and Elisabeth got along pretty well and we're quickly up to good friends in no time, so I think we've found the father of generation five!
That night, Elisabeth began to dream of being valedictorian for her school when she graduated in the next few days.
And now for some updates on the other family members...
Victoria has one hundred and seventeen plants in her garden. Fertilizing them is insane, weeding isn't too bad, but do NOT get me started on harvesting. You don't gain the gardening skill by just harvesting if you don't already have it, so I might be sending Beatrix out to help so that Victoria doesn't spend her entire day out there.
Brent finally got to level seven of the painting skill, so Tatiana got her adult portrait done. We just need someone to paint her elder portrait when the time comes, and then we're home free. I may need to get Beatrix to skill up more quickly, since Brent is already at death's door.
Elisabeth has found lots of stars so far, and I've been unleashing my nerddiness like nobody's business. This is what happens when you're a horror/science fiction writer, you start to learn random things that are either way too specific or way too creepy.
Anyway, the two that I have written down on my notes are a medium orange giant star called Aldebaran and a medium blue giant named Bellatrix. Look it up.
Brent was promoted to CEO, thus completing his lifetime wish. He still needs about forty-thousand lifetime happiness points until he can get the big headstone, so any high value wishes are being grabbed like crazy.
Tatiana got "The Business of Décor" opportunity, bringing her to four BlackOps. She still has more than a week to go until she reaches elder, but I'm starting to worry. She still needs to max her career, get two more opportunities, get more best friends, and her elder pieces. With the way Brent is, I doubt he'll make it to see her age to elder, and with that I'll be down to three best friends. Lets hope that she builds up more of a relationship with her motorcycle...that Elisabeth stole.
Beatrix also got stuck floating outside of the nursery bathroom.
That day, Garland Groves came home with Elisabeth after school...and promptly broke the television.
Beatrix was less than pleased.
Alas, youth does not last forever, and it was time for Elisabeth to age up to young adult. Same age as me!
Beatrix: I still have a hard time realizing that you're actually a young adult now.
And I still don't know fractions!
Elisabeth: Your math teacher must be so proud.
With a spin and some sparkles...
...we have a
Vehicle Enthusiast!
I put her in Tatiana's hair once again, just to be astounded at how similar they look.
Everyday:
Formal:
Sleepwear:
(Blame my friend for that one)
Of course, now that Elisabeth is a young adult, she now has to get some very important dynasty stuff done...
