Borealis - 16 reasons to shine - Graveyard please

Wow, it's amazing just how fast everything is going. That headless fireman is seriously creepy.

(And I'd rather write than clean too. )

Yes I'm moving at a good pace this far, my aim is to get to the next town before the New Years.

I think my order of things I like doing is:

Playing sims
Cooking
Reading
any other chore imaginable
cleaning (dead last)

Basically, yeah.

Inga and Elna are such gorgeous teens! And the headless firefighter was weird.

[saltpastillen]

Inga want's to throw a party and invites everyone the family knows that is a YA or younger. I think it says a lot about the general age of town that not many people fit into that category.

One of the classmates neither Elna or Inga became a romantic interest with at prom is Nicholas. Inga really fancies him, I'm talking hearts and that strange music when they meet fancies him. She even breaks up with her instant romantic interest to increase her chances.



Inga and Nicholas really hit it of an at the end of the party they share a first kiss.

Britta: Way to go honey!
Inga: Give me some privacy or you're not invited next time.

Seriously, even if Britta has moved away she and the rest of the family spends as much time as possible at the Borealis house.



Elna is hard at work on the Digital Dreamer challenge and it sometimes leaves her with unfortunate results. Such as having the bad luck to gain the coward trait for a couple of hours...



...not the best idea when a burglar is on the lot! Seriously, it was almost as if it was planned. Not a burglar for weeks, and then as soon as Elna popped the coward trait who should show up if not this person. Go away, we have skilling to do.



The house launches into a period of heavy partying to make sure all important relationships are transferred to the younger generation in the house.

Seriously, the perfect host LTR is one of the most powerful and useful LTR's in the game. Especially if you just want to keep someone an acquaintance or build relationships with co-workers.

This is Lester Lancaster, son of Lina Lancaster and Jaycen Hendrix, a sim with true townie genes and an old family friend (he has been a fairy since the beginning of the game and went to school with Erik and his siblings back in the day). Now he is Elna's latest crush. She has big plans for him, so she also asks her romantic interest to be just friends.



I never tire of my celebrity sims posing for the camera, even if it's annoying that they drop everything to cater to their fans.



Poor Maj, ever since she moved away the only time she can get attention from her sister is when she is taking her photograph.



Lollo ages up to an elder and her LTW seems hard to reach. She is only on level five of the journalist career and every second day seems to be free. She will have to work on other wishes so she'll get at least a medium headstone (I know it's not a requirement but I feel bad if I don't make an effort).



Inga ages up to an adult, and this is her outwear of choice. I knew she was insane, but this crazy?

Then we have the same goal, I mean about moving to the next town
And I love cleaning I always do that first, or not.

And the headless firefighter, I would marry him to one of my sims, that would be a awesome twist, guess what the child would look alike
And lovely underwear indeed.

Hmm, the headless heir - it has a certain ring to it

[Eldridge]

What is that bear looking look like gnome thing? Is that even a gnome? I want one like that, how did you get that? (Ch.19)

It's funny though when I saw Kent as child with that hairstyle the one thing that I have on my mind, he looks like Miraj instead Emilie

Eww, some creepy glitch to have headless... I believe this story is not talking about horror and speaking about horror it around midnight time. I need something funny soon before going to have a nightmare >w<

[saltpastillen]

It's a laundry gnome, from ambitions I think. You get it when you do laundry sometimes (I think from the expensive dryer). They are pretty rare - I think I have only gotten two or so ever.

It's funny though when I saw Kent as child with that hairstyle the one thing that I have on my mind, he looks like Miraj instead Emilie

You are right that Kent has the Alvi looks, I'm thrilled about this since VJ is one of my favorite townies

I'm having a lot of fun in this game making all the sims have kids so I can watch the genetics play out - I really love that this dynasty allows us to move people in and out of the household so I can get plenty of nooboos.

[saltpastillen]

Poor Elna. She has a rough time of my exploration of the sleeping pod. She gains weight and fleas!



And it's her birthday!

Elna: Can't you do something about this?



Oops, sorry Elna, I didn't mean for that to happen.



Good thing we had a moodlet manager because becoming a toad freezes your age and as an heir that isn't allowed.

Incidentally, when I de todiefied her all her negative moodlets disappeared (even the ones from the dream pod) but the effects of those moodlets i.e. the gained weight stayed. So I would suggest caution when messing around with the moodlet manager and the sleeping pod.



At graduation the whole town was in an uproar. "Don't let those clowns graduate!"



Elna was voted most likely to take over the world - something she was close to since the family owns what can be owned of the town.



Inga got the most artistic reward.



Then they celebrated by joining in the protest. It was a great graduation ceremony.



Once Elna had a positive dream about body image she became a stick figure. I kind of feel she maybe looks anorexic, but it goes well with her face so we'll be shopping for a lean and mean potion to make this permanent.



Inga rolls a wish to pursue the science career and to get a makeover (don't those wishes usually come with the midlife cricis? Inga is only a YA). She gets a princess gown and seems happy.

Nils has rolled the read 50 books wish and spends most of his days working on that. Serendipitously Lollo has rolled the write 25 books wish so she is banging out articles and Nils reading them. Talk about team work!



The twins are now teens.




Eileen seem to like spending time in the house when only Nils is around. She often stays out till around noon just drinking coffee and jumping on the trampoline.



When Elna is promoted to level four she gets a spiffy new outfit. It almost looks as if it was made for her. She has now completed two out of her three skill challenges, there is only the Digital Dreamer left and she has 2 of those dreams to go.



Since Elna want's to go into the Space Explorer branch she works on her athletic skills. She is happy she doesn't have to work out alone.



Lollo becomes an elder and since she is still at level six of the Journalist career her LTW seems out of reach. So, we focus on her writing wishes, only six more books to go before she reaches 25.



I've decided I might need the athletic skill challenges after all, so Elna has to level up the rest of her athletic skill with the hacky-sack. It's great because it doesn't register in the skill journal at all. It also gives her rebel cred, and wishes that pop all over the place.



The family throws a party and invite Quintin and Britta. They are now elders and seems happy about that.




With space exploration as her goal, Elna also invites the alien that once abducted her. It makes for an awkward introduction...



Elna's first meeting with Lester as a YA produces hearts. I guess it was meant to be after all.



This is the face of the newest Digital Dreamer - Elna now has completed all her skill challenges.

[Eldridge]

I do love what you did to Alvi family; they need more love from Simmer and you did a great job to influence me to love VJ as well the rest of their family through reading your story. So, thank you for that.

Ah, before off-topic:

Why is your female Sims when grow up always wearing something inappropriate? It seems like the game dislike you for no reason
Inga looks gorgeous with her princess gown and that hairstyle, she should make appearance often. I love her new look
Don't you get bothered with ghost that lurking around? I usually can’t stand playable ghost as they come up with scary music and cancel everyone action when they meet them.

Lol, I find that many of my sims are wearing inappropriate things when they grow up, but this generation has been the worst so far. Elna truly had some horrible outfits made for her by the game.

I usually don't play with ghosts at all, always keeping them in family inventory to make playing the game easier. But I wanted to try something new this time around, and since the family will move after 4 generations I decided to see what they would be up to if left all alone. Most of the time they aren't that much of a problem (as long as you check your sims and re-task them with what to do once they drop their interaction) also it's rather fun when they interact by themselves with the living

Kent is unexpectedly pretty for a boy. He should consider about starting his own boyband
The last picture is so priceless, bwahaha!

[saltpastillen]

I never get tired of partying in the sims 3. Inga and Nicholas loves the slow dance intearaction.



Elnas try with Lester upset the maid, poor guy seems to have a crush on Elna since he's always trying to talk to her.

Or maybe it's yet another effect of her being a celebrity. She's four stars now because she didn't get any work ops from astronomy - so I have had her accept four celebrity ops instead.



This is Michael Lange, son of Myron and grandson of Mats Borealis. He's now a teen and we insist on him coming to all our parties.



Maj apparently got the supernatural fan trait because all she can talk about is genies.



Ever since last time she met Lester Elna has rolled wish upon wish of writing him love letters. She's sent five so far!



Pansy has been a family friend since the early days when Susan tried to befriend her in the library, we know she doesn't like children, and now she also apparently disprove of Inga and Nicholas declaring their love. Britta, on the other hand, looks very happy.



Xip, the alien elder, is a welcome guest to all parties.



Elna got some fairy dust from Lester, I don't know what it does - so she tries it out.



Turns out it gives her the ability to fly - btw, this is one of my favorite pictures of Elna so far. The flying goes so great with the space suit



Nils leaves us when reading one of his beloved books out by the chess table. He was an unapologetic homebody in his elder days that just lazed around the house saving paparazzi from burning to death and spent time with his mothers ghost.



He managed to get over 200,000 HP and had a fine life for a medium span sim. He welcomed Grim with grace. R.I.P. Nils 57 days.



Lollo takes a break from mourning to pose for the camera.

No, it's not the paparazzi that has such a bad taste and timing - it's Grim again! It seems he gets so excited when reaping at the house that he looses all inhibitions. Thus creating this inadvertently hilarious picture.

Poor Lollo, she has to hide her heart break.



We now have the four large tombstones needed for the move.



In the midst of grief Inga and Nicholas tie the knot.



The twins have aged up to YAs.




Elna proposes to Lester at a party, before trowing a potent cure elixir on him.



They have a wonderful ceremony in the front yard (I had to get them a wedding arch because their private ceremony was constantly dropped when Elna was asked to pose for pictures at the party).



Inga and Nicholas decide to move into Lester's old house and leaves the party for a new exciting life.



I later realize I was a bit eager with the wedding, since I forgot you get time off when getting married. This means Elna will have to wait some days to reach the top of her career.

Oh well, more time to work on Lester HP. First up, he want's to play table tennis.

[LenaLJ]

Elna is absolutely gorgeous.

[saltpastillen]

Elna is absolutely gorgeous.

Thank you! I think so too, she has a very interesting face. Her mother wasn't half as pretty and it's so fun to see how the genes blend. That's one of the reason I want to marry all my heirs to townies or townies kids. I hope to see many interesting sim faces in this dynasty.
