One evening, while Rhett and Jenna are playing chess, Rhett suddenly begins to glow:



Everyone is quite distraught except for Christie, Rhett’s wife, who stands in the back beside the desk, apparently oblivious to what is going on.  At first I wonder what’s going on with her, then I remember that Stone Hearted was one of her LTRs.  Well, now we know it works - she shows not the slightest concern over her husband‘s death.  Or maybe it’s because she never really forgave him for that daughter in France.



If you look closely at the right side of the picture where Wimsey and Sleuth are standing, they appear to be occupying the exact same space.  Wimsey looks like she has three feet, and look at Sleuth’s arm - is he picking his grandmother’s pocket?

Wimsey and Grim have a discussion about good versus evil.  Neither is convinced by the other’s arguments.  I think their life view is fundamentally incompatible.



Rhett is laid to rest in the family plot in Summer Hill Springs.



Rhett completed his LTW of Physical Perfection including the Marathon Runner Athletic challenge, which doesn’t seem to have extended his lifespan significantly.  He also maximized the Painting and Sculpting skills, and completed several items for the Immortals’ Museum.  Rhett was 92 days old when he died.

“The Continuing Adventures of Sleuth Douglas - Burglar!”
… In which Sleuth demonstrates his potential to be a hero.  Guitar hero.


One night while the Douglas household is sleeping, the peaceful night is suddenly rent by the loud clanging of the burglar alarm.  Somehow the twins in their cribs manage to sleep through the noise but everyone else hurriedly leaps from bed and runs out to confront the intruder.

They rush out to watch the police officer attempting to subdue the thief.  Well, the women do.  Wimsey, Christie and Jenna are here.



Where are the men?  

James is off the lot fishing, as he does every night.  He knows nothing of the intruder.




Where is Sleuth?  I finally found him:



It seems that when times get tough, the tough get out their guitar.  Poor Sleuth, is that noisy alarm interfering with your music?  

Sleuth was right all along - he really didn’t belong in the Police force.  This boy is a sensitive, artistic soul.  Who lets the women deal with the burglars.

Now there is a true, thrifty, Scot!  He knows his place and it isn't getting in the middle of a muddle when he has the females of the clan to do the dirty work.  lol  I loved Grimmy's conversation!  He is really getting way too chummy with the folks left behind.  Is he getting a life? lol
What?  Grannies can't play games?
I speak perfect Nooblik, (and some Simlish)!

Yes, Joria, Grimmy and Wimsey always seem to have a lot to talk about.  I think that old girl likes the challenge.  Or maybe she's just bored with sculpting day after day.

"in the middle of a muddle" - I love that phrase!  Will have to remember it.

Thanks for the comments, Joria and ladylaw.

I just got caught up!  WHEW!  You've had a crazy week, haven't you?  I'm so glad you're continuing with your Dynasty!  It's one of my favorites. :)

Just some pictures of the twins as children.  First, Mojo, the Immortal-to-be:



Mojo’s favourite colour is seafoam, which seems an uncommon favourite for a small boy.  I didn’t have the hex code and had to guess at the colour for his shirt.  Will try again now that I have the hex codes written down.

Here is Radar, the younger brother.  His favourite colour is yellow:



They do everything together.  Homework:




Playing chess:

I love it when I see the kids doing stuff together.  Every time I see one of your guys in a kilt though I start humming, "Donald, where's yer troosers".  Cracks everyone in the house up. 
What?  Grannies can't play games?

“All for one and one for all
My brother and my friend
What fun we have
The time we share
Brothers 'til the end.”
~Author Unknown

Mojo and Radar go to the Consignment Shop on Saturday afternoon.  Radar chats with the clerk.  Mojo can barely be seen at the back of the shop, on the right.



What is Mojo doing behind that clothes rack? 



They leave in a hurry.







That evening, Jenna sees them playing with new music boxes.




Jenna:  Where did you get the music boxes?
Mojo:  Friends at school gave them to us.
Jenna:  Really?  Those look like expensive music boxes to just give away.
Mojo:  They didn’t want them any more.

Later, Jenna and James are talking and she mentions the music boxes.



Jenna:  I’ve never seen a ninja music box before - I didn’t know you could get them in SV.
James:  Sometimes they have them at the Consignment Shop.  I saw one there yesterday.

Oo, so Mojo might be a klepto, or just a rebellion boy nearing puberty :D I love how you develop a story on details that would otherwise be unnoticeable!

Uh, oh!  BUSTED!!  Mojo, you are in BIG trouble now!  *Unless of course it is part of an unfortunate, but useful nature*
