Week 8 Spring
Part 1Miss Bella is certainly pushing herself toward betterment, despite several times rolling wishes to quit/not go to work. Her wishes were already full, I had no choice but to turn them down -cough-. Still, as the days rolled by, she certainly became quite useful. She saved the lives of several sims, even though her first day on the job left her with only on-lookers. Unsurprising for the time of year. In her spare time she went on dates with her Mortimer, and made secret plans with her BFF Sandi.
Both Darina and Luella quickly fell in love. They moved quickly, aware of the fact that if they were in relationships Frio could do nothing, as the fae council admired fertility and familial ties above all else. Luella decided on Sam Sekemoto, whom she romanced in his own house. They went on their first date, which ended in a bit of disastrous lunacy slapping from Sam, but he had already agreed to go to the prom with Luella. Over the next few days she romanced him again, forgiving him for falling under the moon's spell, and succeeded in making him her boyfriend after a dip kiss.
Darina made her move on Brice Keaton, quickly securing him as her boyfriend after sharing a first kiss and giving a dip kiss, but not before first securing his promise to be her date for the upcoming prom.
Not to be outdone by his sisters, Ekene asked out Francesca, who agreed on the condition that he keep his hands to himself. After getting the advice of his sisters, he slowly romanced Miss Ursine, starting with a heat of the moment kiss instead of a traditional first kiss, and used the legendary Dip Kiss to convince her to become his girlfriend.
Prom night quickly arrived. Ekene became king, while Darina was crowned Queen. Luella couldn't care less, as she and Sam were acknowledged as the cutest couple.
(This was the best photo I could get, and Brice is missing from it.)
Meanwhile, Chris wasn't handling his midlife crisis very well, and wound up getting a tattoo instead of seeing his kids off on their prom night. Here's to hoping he doesn't miss any other important moments of his family's life.
The next day at school was an important one for Darina and Luella. The triplets went to a field tip to the police station, and left quite the impression on the fae. Ekene was more concerned with his plans for himself. Of course, Luella couldn't help the small, harmless prank of locking an officer in his cell. He took it in stride, and the three left without and punishments.
Sandi was called upon to film an address to the city on behalf of the mayor. Micheal's job as Ballot Counter probably had nothing to do with why a Best Girl was chosen. Probably. Whatever the cause was, Sandi continued her winning streak by getting a raise and promotion from her boss, before bringing in a check for her old school.
Chris and Molly sat the triplets down one day, and broke the news to them. Of course the kids already knew about the legacy, but so soon...
Molly tired to keep cheerful face, but Chris couldn't hide how he really felt about the situation.
"...and thanks to the supernatural counsel and Frio, the legacy is even more complicated. In light of this, I'd like each of you to state your cases before I make my final decision."
As the eldest, Darina went first. "As heir, I would be marrying Brice Keaton, an upstanding remember of the community. His parents work in law enforcement and sports, father is a vampire. I'd be joining his mother in law enforcement, specializing in the Forensics track, to become a Dynamic DNA Profiler. I've become an employee at the bookstore to bolster my resume. As far as the council, I'm marrying a mortal, diluting my chances of having a fae baby, and showing that we don't mind adding vampires to our family tree. It's not ideal, I know, but I love Brice, and he is my choice. Even if I didn't have to marry right away to stay safe from Frio, I'd still choose him." She sat down after her speech, with her mother's nod of approval. Love was always important to Molly.
Luella went next. "As heir, i have similar interests. Sam Sekemoto is my choice. His father is a werewolf, showing non-fae favor which the supernatural counsil will no doubt approve of. It tips the scales slightly towards were with Micheal's father also being a were wolf, but Sam's step-mother is River, and Fiona is a witch, which also diversifies the lineage. it's a stretch, but it does include witches. And besides, then the Mcirish family is bound to us!...I'm also working at the book store, and plan to join law enforcement as well, down the Special Agent Career Track, to become a International Super Spy. I'll also be safe from Frio with Sam, between Leighton and River he wouldn't dare try anything." Chris and Molly both nodded, her choice would indeed help to appease the council. They were also relieved to hear that both girls had decided on careers.
Ekene stood last. "As the only mortal option, I have my pick of the litter with supernaturals. I have romanced Francesca with this in mind. Though mortal, her mother is a vampire, and her father is Jared Frio." Both his sister's gasped at this, no one had known of the girl's lineage. "Furthermore, as we are both mortal descendants of a light fae, the fae council will be appeased. Her mother bring in vampire blood, leaving our children with a 50% chance of being mortal, and 25% each of fae and vampire, giving the council plenty of option. However, marrying her cements family lines. By marrying the only child of Frio, he looses any rights to ask for my immediate family members to join him, the law is very clear here in the fae book."
Molly, Darina and Luella started to tear up at this. "Furthermore, I plan to join politics, and become leader of the free world. I will have regular meetings with the supernatural council, and ensure them full-rights within Sunset Valley, and right the laws dealing unjustly with them. This will satisfy any worries towards favoritism that they have, and ensure that they remain satisfied."
Ekene clapped in his excitement at having finally divulged his plan to his family, having kept it a secret since the first time he met Francesca.
Chris nodded thoughtfully "You have all stated your case. I will inform you on my decision by the first night of Summer. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've been paged into work."
Coming into that shift gave Chris his last promotion, landing him a job as a World Renowned Surgeon.
Much to Molly's surprise, Miacheal asked her for Sandi's hand in marriage
"I know it's traditional to ask the father, but your light fae, as is my mother. In light of this, I'd like to ask your permission not only as her mother, but as a member of the light, for your first daughter's hand in marriage."
Molly smiled after getting over her initial shock.
"I'd love to have you as my son-in-law. You have my blessing."
And causing him to miss this moment.
After all, it was Love Day.
Meanwhile, the triplets began working on relevant skills, and took class in charisma and athletics that very night. Ekene stayed up late into the night, practicing his speech for world peace, and feeling confident that he would be the heir chosen.
