The Seven Seas - An Oceanic Life States Dynasty - RETURNED (3/20)

Arctura is a cutie. I was grossed out by Caribbean transforming in his underwear though

Yeah, and right in front of his kid. Caribbean, could you do that in a slightly less disturbing manner? Please?

What a beautiful sim! I never knew that Fawn made such lovely kids.

Fawn is amazing. And Arctura has amazing genetics.

Week 18



Arctura makes nectar.



Fawn mourns that bird. His name was Storm and I swear I must have mentioned that somewhere but turns out I didn't. So RIP Storm, the Nameless Bird Who No One Cared About Deep Down.
Fawn: Hey! I cared about him sometimes! I cleaned his cage once. It wasn't autonomous, but still...



Jules clones things.



Janette and Marigold hang out by the cemetery? I really don't know why I took this picture.



Some guy dies by the cemetery. Isn't that convenient for the grave diggers? Thank you, random guy, Arctura's job is so much easier now!



Atlantico eats a poisoned apple. Why?

Prom is on Thursday, a day off.




That is another Prom guy. His name is Anwar. The only reason I brought this up is, since when is Anwar a common name? It never has been! Why, EA, why? It's weird!

Anyway, Arctura scores an RI named Charmaine Rasmussen. The next day she ages up and is sent a breakup text.

Friday is hopefully Arctura's last day. He already has honor roll, and though he never bought MultiTasker he still has 1 1/2 promotions. I think he could've gotten his second one on Tuesday but he took three days to get his first one - he was literally a hair away from it on the third day.

WILL HE TRIUMPH?!? (Well yes he does but I have to have some kind of plot line beyond commenting on my sims' stupidity, right?)
*confused blinking*
Forget it. Yes, he does triumph. And then he gets to age up.

I do notice some weird stuff going down under the full moon, though.



This werewolf is still mourning her old boyfriend or whatever. Just go home already!



I don't even know what happened in this picture.



Or this one.



Cowards.

But in the meantime, Cerulean's got news for all of you.



News that involves the fact that I want Carmella as a spouse because of her skin but I also would like a female heir because we've had 3 males consecutively. (Sorry that was a long explanation.) Also, Arctura's spouse has great female features.

Who is Arctura's spouse? Well...



Hey, look, he's aging up!






And he's driving to his future spouse's house in a glitchy motive mobile that won't show the inside!



Oh wait, let's check out Cerulean giving birth in traditional GPS (glitched pregnancy syndrome) form.




A couple days later...



I'm almost at my picture limit, so I should stop now...

But then you would all hunt me down and kill me. It's Emelie Van Gould!



She was technically dating Dante, but as a commitment issues sim he doesn't seem to care much.



Until this happens.



Eeek! Creepy!

(But seriously, I'm curious as to what motive mobiles look like. Do they have recliners? Butler services? Gross toilets? We don't know!)

[Lisa46]

Just some notes:
1. Arctura has a ridiculous nose, which, thankfully, the next heir did not inherit.
2. The weird skin glitches were caused by a cousin who downloaded a CC skin to my game without my permission. That's the last time she gets my computer. Ever.
3. That nose. Fawn has a gorgeous nose, why can't he get that? My theory is that if Caribbean wasn't a werewolf his nose would be like that. I know that werewolves have altered noses so that would make sense.

Very funny update, I laughed a lot at that random sim mourning her boyfriend and the ghost fainting at the sight of another ghost. Emelie is gorgeous, I'm glad you picked her.

Some seriously weird stuff went on in this update. What I found so weird about that sim mourning her boyfriend is the fact that her boyfriend had died 4 days ago and she was still there and still mourning him. Joe MacDuff is a weirdo. He fainted at the sight of the ghost of his mother. I mean who does that?

I have some very definite favorite sims from Moonlight Falls. Emelie comes first.

Great comment 

Emelie is so, so pretty.  The next heir (or hopefully heiress) is sure to be gorgeous with those features.

Thanks! I've been amazed lately by the amount of sims who die on my lot or near it. The next heir's skills made it even worse.

Emelie is gorgeous. And in terms of the next heir - in my opinion, he/she is pretty cool. No, I will not reveal the gender! Most of my heirs seem to get their mom's genes so far, and I'll see if that trend holds for my 6th and 7th heirs.

EDIT: just some in-game news from Week 24! Pacifica, a hopeless romantic, was in multiple teenage romances but none of them held. Now I know why, because Pacifica just married Mira Giffords. Mira is actually an original townie, but I think her surname is different in the beginning of the game. I couldn't have chosen better for her, except for the fact that Mira has commitment issues.

I cant say I was ever a fan of the supernatural, or the life state dynasty but I love your story and you colourful characters... Literally

Thank you! It's nice to know my characters are enjoyed.
Atlantico: Well, of course we are, especially me!

Week 19 - Romance... Barf!

When we left off, someone was romancing... and someone else was leaving.




I really will miss these two. Poor Jules - I wanted him to stay but I also want triplets next round.
But the romance continues, and chimes echo around the home.



There's romance in Arctura's room, too.



Emelie autonomously begins a slow dance, and they are not even romantic at this point. I'm not making this up!



But a Heat of the Moment Kiss quickly changes that. They begin the romantic spam immediately.




Within two sim hours, they are ready for proposal. I've never seen this happen so fast! Not even with Cera and Jules. Jules... *sob*



Arctura then pops two wishes...
Become a Vampire. Yeah, right. That'll totally happen.
And... Marry Emelie.




Emelie pops Marry Arctura and Acquire Bottled Vampire's Bite. I can't believe she isn't a vegetarian, she totally acts like one (I have never seen her pop even one wish to drink blood, she just wants Plasma Juice). I also find it amusing that she didn't want to be a mermaid despite loving to swim and having a level 10 athletic.

This very short and lame chapter ends with Arctura supermaxing alchemy... which I forgot to take a picture of. Oops. 

---{}---

I'm so sorry I haven't posted in a week and a half! I was really trying to push through the game, and I'm now at Week 25 and having my first heir problems while trying to get heir 6. Here's hoping for luck!

Comments, criticism, and questions are all welcome!

It's always so sad when a spouse and spares have to leave  It's true love with Arctura and Emelie - she's definitely a vegetarian

[Malley]

I always love it when moments after getting engaged, the couple rolls a wish to get married to each other.  That was always so sweet    Congrats to the happy couple!!

That gets pretty sad, yes, but it is nice to have less controlled sims. Arctura and Emelie are so cute together, reminds me of Jules and Cera.

They are quite happy! Or were... Now Emelie is gone in my game and I'm on the sixth heir. Sad but also cool.

On another note... Thank you so much for 2000 views!

[Lisa46]

I'm so sorry for not posting in so long! I promise an update by the end of this week.

On another note... hopefully I will be getting a new computer soon so that I can complete the dynasty on graphics settings that aren't the lowest possible. Week 26 and Heir 6 is a toddler, so hopefully the game will last that long...
