A Bright Grey Domination Dynasty

[Malley]

I'm thinking Russian next. I took Russian in school when I was 12. That was over 50 years ago. I'd better find a website.

I also know how to count in Korean to ten from my years in martial arts if you need it.  If not, Russian would be really cool to learn 

[KRae]

The teen years passed peaceful only punctuated by the constant hammered fingers and occasional butt fire. Ni created Venus, a Gnome of Invention, whose favorite music seems to be hip-hop. Fabulous.



And graduation is back. Neun was valedictorian and voted Most Likely to Complete Her Lifetime Wish. Easy call. Zehn was voted Most likely to Take Over the World. must be that Heavy Sleeper trait. Ichi was voted Most Artistic. At least that one makes sense. Ni was voted Most Likely to Become a Sports Star. Must have be that level one in Athletics.



Ni was the first out the door, moving Week 29 Day 4 to 863 Vista Blvd. He maxed the Inventing skill, reached level 4 in the Inventor career, and purchased MN8. It took four tries for Misty to get a masterpiece portrait.
His traits - Workaholic, Handy, Athletic, Eccentric, Perceptive



Next to go, Zehn - Genius, Heavy Sleeper, Bookworm, Supernatural Skeptic, Clumsy. She move to 339 Hill St. on Week 29 Day 6. She maxed Logic, reached level 3 in Journalism, and bought the Rodeo-Go-Go. On the fifth try Misty finally produced a masterpiece portrait.



I thought Ichi would be the last of the swarm to go. She was incredibly slow maxing Painting and reaching level 2 of her Stylist career. However, she left 3rd after buying The Urbane Center for the Fine Arts, moving on Week 30 Day 1 to 241 Foothill Dr. Misty got her masterpiece first try. Ichi: See my eyes are blue. Well, at least one of them is. Traits - Artistic, Friendly, Ambitious, Born Saleswoman, Brave.



Neun easily maxed Logic and reached level 4 of the Medical career with out being pushed. She bought the Community Library, and waited while Misty painted 10 portraits of her. She moved to 12 Buckshot Lane on Week 30 Day 3. I was so glad that I moved her to the most expensive house (about 560K). Her traits - Genius, Good, Workaholic, Disciplined, Party Animal.



The Honeycomb Basement of Mind Numbing Repetition
Neun and Zehn



Ichi and Ni



Painting 20 portraits caused Misty to fall way behind in her Sculpting career. Sonny, requirements completed, did what he could to help. With his impressive reputation at the consignment shop, he made daily trips canceling, consigning and re-consigning until finally on Week 31 Day 3 Misty, at last ready, put down her chisel and threw a Fairy House Party.

5 Object Collection - Elixirs worth $8472  Misty's 4 Bottled Blessing of the Fae, Sonny's Bottled Bliss

[Malley]

That last group of kids turned out quite well. They were all very pretty/handsome Looking forward to the next set.

[KRae]

This is taking me forever. I don't know if it's because I don't have a multi-tab or if it's because I decided not to use a motive mobile or moodlet manager. Maybe I'm just too nice to the drones. I'm going to start aging them up faster after toddlerhood and let the traits fall where they may.

[ratchie]

I have been using a multi-tab but not a moodlet manager of motive mobile. You have blue Sims with orange hair I don't know if I ever told you this but I love blue Sims with orange hair.

Rachel

I do too! I actually just love red haired sims.
I've edited my last post to correct the travel. The 14 day total is correct, but Sonny did spend 3 days in China. It just seemed more like RD 6 than RD 7.

[KRae]

Elixirs were used, chimes were heard.
Sonny: I wish to have a child. I wish to have a child with Misty. I wish to have a girl.
Misty: I wish to get a massage.

And the next swarm arrives.

San - Brave, Friendly



Shi - Genius, Loves the Outdoors



Go - Athletic, Good



Roku - Workaholic, Virtuoso, Ambitious
Roku is Misty's clone. I think the genetic sequencing was off by a hair.



After toddler skills were learned, and candles were blown out, Misty took a solo trip to France. She rode her little scooter out to tne Nectary.



And stayed for four days chugging elixirs and writing.



Meanwhile.....
Swarm: Whoopee! Pop bought us Multitab 6000s! Partay!
OCD: Maybe you should try using them.
Swarm: Partay!           (A big thanks to GlazeyLady!)

[Malley]

The triplets actually look really similar this time! So cute 

[KRae]

Sonny: With my quick grow station, I'm the best gardener in town. Observe me and weep.
Sonny loves his garden. He is always out there using bloom and laughing...in his briefs. He always changes into his regular clothes when he goes back into the house.



The swarm all graduated, although with indifferent grades and the usual awards. Shi, however, got Most Likely to be a Millionaire. Well, not after moving away. Maybe that realization caused her to wander off and miss being in the picture.



Roku was the first to leave the hive and the millions. After the property investments started really paying off, money was no longer an issue. On Week 33 Day 2, Roku moved to 358 Hill St. She reached level 2 in the Sculptor career, maxed Photograpy, and purchased Starlight Plaza. Misty took 3 tries to get that masterpiece portrait. Her final traits - Workaholic, Virtuoso, Ambitious, Savvy Sculptor, and Brave.



Shi was next moving to 107 Foothill Dr. on Week 33 Day 5. She became a level 2 Magician, maxed Logic, and purchased Verde Park.
Doing magic tricks for tips is great when the only person around is a proprietor who completely ignores you. Her masterpiece portrait was produced on the second try. Her final traits - Genius, Loves the Outdoors, Bookworm, Snob, and Gatherer.



San became a level 2 fortune teller which made no use whatsoever of her maxed Writing skill. I wanted to see how much difference the Multi Tab made. Man, did it ever. She bought the Brotherhood of Fine Fellows Hall, and moved out Week 33 Day 6 to 76 Los Suenos Strip. Misty got her masterpiece first try and gratefully let San take her bass, which she dearly love, when she moved. San's traits - Brave, Friendly, Bookworm, Flirty, and Virtuoso.



No this is not a CAS headshot of Go. He completed his requirements and spent a week just going to work, dancing, and posing for portraits.



Ah, here he is. Week 34 Day 2, after 6 tries, Misty finally got that masterpiece. He reached level 4 in Law Enforcement, maxed Fishing, and purchased the Weight and Sea Rec Center which now has two fountains discretely placed on the roof. His house is at 19 Palm Park Avenue. His traits - Athletic, Good, Loves the Outdoors, Gatherer, and Brave.

 

And here's the Honeycomb I Didn't Even Know We Had a Basement.




On Week 34 Day 5 Sonny and Misty both reached level 10 of their careers and met their last requirement for RD 8.

Misty spent 4 days in France bringing the total to 18 days. There will be no more travel as it took a loooooong time to get Misty home.

[Malley]

I love the titles of your masterpiece museums 

[KRae]

And the swarm continued to multiply.

Shichi - Heavy Sleeper, Brave  and where did that hair color come from.



Hachi - Virtuoso, Disciplined and that's more like it.



Kuu - Loves the Outdoors, Friendly. Okay, at least this is somewhat expected now.



With the wee ones well on their way to independence, Sonny decided to prepare his nectary room.



Let the squishing begin. Sonny, perhaps you should consider a different color bathing suit.



Family bonding time.



Hachi: Bah, Mum's music is boring. I'm edgy. I like dark wave. Do Do Do Doo....Do the Smussle.



Being a self-employed gardener is great, but late one evening Misty got more than a little stir crazy and buzzed off to catch the end of SimFest. This is what greeted her. A room full of creepy proprietors. She backed out slowly and decided she wasn't that stir crazy after all.



This is at MN8, and it doesn't show the full extent of the crowd. I've had this happen before in Riverview and Sunset Valley. I'll check to see if it's always like this or just at closing time. It doesn't seem to be affecting the speed of my file.

[MarianT]

I had a congregation of proprietors in my decadynasty. You can probably get permission to delete MN8 and replace it. Of course, it does provide a place where you can always find best friend prospects.

[KRae]

Time flies when you're a fairy. Tiny minions became moody teen minions and graduation was upon us.
Well, Sonny seems pleased.



Hachi signed up to be a singer. There's plenty of brothers and sisters around town to watch and some of them even tip. That's our girl Tres all singed in the background. Oh, and that's Jayson What'syourlastname in front of her, one of the four remaining townies still occupying a house. Misty decided to make him her new best friend. He died two days later.



Shichi decided to follow in his father's footsteps and became a nectar maker reaching level 4 and maxing the skill. After purchasing Del Mar Beach, he moved to 465 Shoreline Point on Week 37 Day 2. Misty painted his masterpiece portrait on the first try. His final traits -
Heavy Sleeper, Brave, Neurotic, Flirty, and Ambitious.



Hachi - Virtuoso, Disciplined, Artistic, Frugal, and Dramatic - maxed the Guitar skill easily and reached level 2 in the Singer career. She purchased Buckshot Lake, the very last purchasable business or property in Starlight Shores. Her masterpiece was completed 2nd try, and she moved to 460 Shoreline Point on Week 37 Day 4.



Kuu left the same day moving to 108 Foothill Drive when he maxed the Gardening skill. He was already at level 8 in the Gardening career. Thank you money trees. Misty completed his masterpiece portrait on the third try earlier that day. His traits - Loves the Outdoors, Friendly, Good Sense of Humor, Perfectionist, Great Kisser.



The Honeycomb Basement of Just Passing Through to the Nectar Room, Thanks!



Sonny and Misty qualified for RD 9 on Week 38 Day 2. There are only 7 non-dominated houses left in Starlight Shores. Ten RDs should be enough. Then they can coast while the minions complete their move out requirements.

[Deklitch]

Regarding the line up of proprietors, is it wrong that I've got in my mind a sudden urge to call out "CONGA" or set up a limbo stick?

I was just going to ask you how many more properties/houses you had to go, Krae. Do you have another challenge lined up once you complete this one?

[KRae]

So at this point I have 7 houses to fill. Unbelievably, 3 are still occupied by elder sims. They must be heavily tattooed under those dumpy clothes. Other challenges? Something without a lot of nooboos.
