Cloudbringer Dynasty - Failed requirements, Graveyard please

[MarianT]

Rowan was too funny -- she'll be missed. Don does seem to have a thing for redheads -- I'm sure he'll make a great spouse.

[KTK10]

@dethdukk - I know.. he's a real kitten underneath
@MarianT - He really does make a great spouse. I miss Rowan as she was so amazing

Will be updating later today everyone! 

[KTK10]

Well Goodmorning Princess.. I can see that you are a very happy girl today

What are you kidding? I had a fantastic day at work, I got to move in with my man and I am starting to feel better about Rowan. What's there to be unhappy about?



So what is the plan for today?

I'm thinking that I might get promoted today, but just in case I will practice my cooking..



And my mixology. I still haven't decided if I want to get more involved in mixing drinks or if I want to learn herbology. It just seems like a perfect team up, cooking and herbology.. I don't know.. what do you think?



I think that you might be showing off just a tad.. that's what I think

Don "Morning Watcher.. I've decided I want to work on my gardening skills, I'll still fish, but I think gardening in going to be my specialty"



I think that you are already doing so well.. I see that you paid back the cow plant?

Don "Yep - it was a creepy thing"

I remember Rowan saying something about .. treating it like you would treat death.. Oh! Well done Don

Don "She was a nice lady. I liked her a lot"



I see that you replaced the plant with a bonzai?

Don "Yep! Also a message for Death"



Impressive..

Don "Me or the plant?"



OK.. I guess I deserved that *sheepish smile* So what else is on the agenda for you today?

Don "I'm going to swim, fish, make drinks and then kiss my girl when she gets home from work. What are you going to do today?"

Um... Watch?

Don "Yeah, you're not creepy at all"



Ok smarty pants.. How's the fishing going? I see that you haven't caught a single thing yet

Don "Think you may have spoken too soon there Watcher"



Hahahahahaha!! Nope!

Don *Hmmph*



What is it with you two? All this showing off about how you can mix drinks.



I'm thinking that maybe you should get yourself a job Don.. What do you think?

Don "No"



Don "There is way too many things to do around here - I am now the man of this house and I intend to place my mark. I want Alena to think that I am irreplaceable"



Don "So I have to make sure that everything works, that I am in peak physical condition and that I bring in all the fish and death flowers that she needs. Am also assuming you haven't told her that this is a Dynasty yet and that she will live forever and watch every single person that she loves and the other immortals love die and then watch them all suffer the consequences of that lost love.. am I right?"



What? Why are you attacking me?

Don "Don't threaten a non committal person with a job Watcher.. that's all I'm saying"



Jeez.. was just an idea.  Hey Alena, how did work go?



Guessing that promotion didn't happen.. sorry honey

No.. some idiot stole money from the till, I didn't want to rat them out and then the boss took money from ALL of us to pay the till back and now EVERYONE is angry at me.. Grrrrrrr



Don "You did the right thing honey, you are no rat. Come here"



Don "Don't let anyone else dictate how you feel about your decisions. You were put in a very difficult position and if I were you, I'd be talking to the person who actually stole that money and giving them a piece of your mind.  You are a strong, independent woman who is passionate, intelligent and kind.  But most of all, you are MY woman, and I just.. well.. I just love you Alena"



I'm going to capture this moment.. to keep forever..



Oh how I love you too

*Some time later*

Don "Whistling*

You seem happy..

Don "Yeah, I'm surprised at how happy I really am. I even painted after Alena went to bed!"



Can I ask why you are in your party clothes?

Don "Oh yeah, I just went to the park to check out the fishing spots there"



Did you catch anything?

Don "Not anything worth mentioning.. Nope

Did you go anywhere else?

Don "Nah.. just came straight home"

[Shewolf13]

Uh oh... Why does that seem rather ominous?  I love Don's interactions with the Watcher.  So funny!

[Nettlejuice]

What are you up to, Don? Loving the chemistry between Alena and Don, is it too early to wish for nooboos?

[KTK10]

@Shewolf13 - Yeah... Don is sneaking out! 
@Nettlejuice - Never too early to wish for nooboos!!   

[MarianT]

I'm not sure you can win with the employee taking money from the till. My sim did rat the person out and got a small performance boost, but then the employee was fired and got mad at her, which made her tense, so she lost progress. I wish those things came with an "ignore" option.

[sdhoey]

yeah Don, didn't go anywhere? A bar seems like a nice place to start. Something here is sounding familiar. LOL *whistles*

[KTK10]

@MarianT - I've played that scenario a couple of times and you are right.. you simply can not win! I agree.. an ignore option (like sims 2) would have been better 
@sdhoey - I know, for some reason Don likes to 'spice it up' ! hahaha

[KTK10]

New Adventures

Hi baby. Where did you get to last night? I rolled over and you were gone?

Don "I just went fishing in the park.. did I need to ask you for permission?"

What? No! Of course not!



Are you OK? I didn't mean to make you upset

Don "Yeah,sorry.. just a little tired I guess"

Well.. how would you feel about coming to the park with me and try out a hot date?

Don " Lead on Princess"

*sigh*

Don "Does a Rose interest you my love?"

Um.. YEAH!



Don "You know Alena, you make me quiet inside.. do you know what I mean?"

Sort of

Don "I mean.. I have these commitment issues which you know about, and sometimes the pressure just causes a volcano like eruption inside me, but when I hold you.. it's like.. water. Do you see? I get all quiet inside.. the volcano sleeps"



I love you Don Lothario



Don "How much Ms Cloudbringer"

This much handsome man



Don "Listen.. there is something I need to tell you. I don't know how you are going to react, but I don't think it's fair that you are left in the dark any more"

Tell me.. tell me quickly before I start imagining the worst things

Don "You are the founder of a.."

Legacy.. I know sweetheart. I've always known

Don "Not a legacy honey.. your Watcher chose you for an Immortal Dynasty"



No.. No.. SHE DID NOT

Don "ahem... Are you going to weigh in here Watcher?"

No

Take me home please Don

Don "Are you ok?"

Please.. Take me home

Princess.. Listen.. I was going to tell you



Suggestion? Leave.. now..

Don "Babe.. Oh babe, please don't freeze everyone out.. it's ok. Honestly"



Do you really think so? I'm curious Don. If YOU were the founder of an Immortal Dynasty, fell in love with the most amazing woman, decided to have loads of children and was looking forward to getting old and dying together.. would it not bother you that you are doomed to watch them die.. and then watch your first born's love die.. and then their first born's love die.."

Don "Stop my love.. stop. You are going to miss out on the best part"

*glares in disbelief*

Don "The best part is now. You could have just stayed in the Gallery.. never chosen at all. You would never have found love, ambition, life and freedom. Don't blame her honey, she loves you and that is why you were chosen"

*whispers* thank you Don

Oh Don.. It's a lot to think about right now. How am I going to explain this to our children?

Don "What? Oh no.. non committal trait remember!! I'm just here as a helper!"

What?

Don "Oh Princess *chuckle* come here"



Don "I don't know about you, but I think I'm up for a nap.. feel like joining in?"



Um..



..Kay..



Don "Hey babe! I think I might go off to the park for a while.  As much as I am enjoying fishing and stuff.. I think I need to find a helper"

[Yelling from the shower] OK gorgeous! I have to be at work in an hour so I'll see you when I get.. whoops!!

Don "slipped on the soap?"

Ow... yep..



Hey! Guy to your left.. In waders and actually fishing. Go get him!



Don "Hey mate. My name is Don, how are you this fine day? The fish biting?"



Don "Oh sorry. Perhaps you didn't hear me well enough. Sometimes I do tend to mumble.. MY NAME IS DON. WHAT IS YOURS?"



Nawwaf "Ahem.. I am a gentleman sir.. There is absolutely no need to yell. My name is Nawwaf and I'm a hugger"

Don "A what?"



Nawwaf "A pleasure to meet you sir"

Don "*whispers* Abort.. abort.. abort"



What's happening now Don?

Don "*whispers..again..* sshhh... am trying to serenade before telling Alena that we have a new room mate"

So you asked him to move in?

Don "No.. he followed me home."



Tell me.

Don "Huh?"

I see through you Don Lothario.. Now tell me. And don't lie.

Don "Ok.. now don't blame me. But we have a new tennant. His name is Nawwaf and he likes to hug"

Oh Don what? I just asked for vacation time so we could go to Ganite Falls. Darn.. we are just going to have to bring him along. Don't want him dying or anything before we get back"

Don "How did you know he was an Elder?"

Really?? Really?? Immortal Dynasty house remember? I would KILL you if you brought home a young adult that was going to take up an important space in the household

Don "... good to know.."

We better go then. Introduce me later. And Don?

Don "Yes Princess?"

Can you clarify hugger?



Nawwaf  " So this is base camp here.. Hi. It's a pleasure to meet you Ma'am"

Yes, you too Mr.. Mr?

Nawwaf "No need. Nawwaf is just fine Ma'am"

Um.. yeah.. Ok.. um.. gotta run.. see ya

Nawwaf "Well that was rude"



Don "Hey Man. Listen, don't take offence. She just has loads to try and collect and she only picked one day for a vacation.. silly I know.. but don't tell her I said that"



Don "Hey .. Dude.. did you hear me? Have you got that ear plug thing on?"



Don "Hell..ooo??? Anyone in there?"



Don "Watcher? I'm looking right at him! Is he breathing? What the heck man?"

Nawwaf? You ok honey?



Um.. I think he might actually be asleep

[sdhoey]

LOL That was too funny!! "Um.. I think he might actually be asleep"

[Shewolf13]

XD Oh dear... that's too funny.  Though I am very suspicious that Don is lying to Alena... that doesn't bode well!

[KTK10]

@sdhoey  - Some Elders just create humour!! haha

@Shewolf13  - Me too...! 

[KTK10]

Moving Forward

Wow.. this place is amazing.. and whoaw.. did you meet that guy?? Narf?



Nawwaf honey.. and yep.. kinda speechless on that one

Oh wow! Did you see that? I've never seen a real life bird before.. wow



Don "Hey babe, thought that  Nawwaf and I might go fishing here so we are close to you"

Nawwaf "Last one to the ocean gets to change my diaper!"

What? Um.. I'll say again.. What??

Don "He is kidding.. seriously.. he is kidding.. "

You sure?

Don "no"



I think I might deviate this way.. see ya later Don!

Don "No way man.. come BACK!"



oOOHH.. he looks scary. Hi! Are you the hermit?



Hermit "no"

OK.. then Hi Mr Not Hermit, I'm Alena and although I come with two very .. how do I say it nicely.. Odd men?  Can I please ask you about the different plants and herbs that you have planted in this amazing garden?



Hermit "Maybe.. if you can solve my riddle"

Um.. maybe later? I mean, everyone loves a good riddle.. if you were born in 1657 would you mind if I tried out your fishing spot over there

Hermit "riddle me this... riddle me that..."

um... OK.. Thanks



Wow.. watcher.. have you seen this place?  I mean.. except for the potential axe murderer.. it's truly beautiful





Amazing.. Who new that this place was just a 30 second bleep away

Yep! Who knew?

Hungry?

OMG.. starving! Who knew that being in the outdoors makes you sleepy and hungry?

Um....everyone?

*silence*

Don "So.. Nawwaf.. What did you think of the outdoors?"



Don "Nawwaf? ARE YOU AWAKE?"



Nawwaf "Certainly am young Man. Feeling bright and alive. I can't thank you and your fine wife enough for bringing me along to this dapper establishment"

*coough* Wife??

Don "Haha!! So you are a comedian?"



Nawwaf "No"

Don "Oh. Sorry Mate. Thought that you were being funny"

Nawwaf  "So your are not married?"

Don/Alena.. "NO"

Nawwaf "Oh Dear."

Wait! Wait! I'm going to just check the statistics of successful marriages of Sims in a Dynasty.. hold on..



Yeah.. best you take yourself off to bed Mr.. oh crap... who are you again?



Well that was rude.

How are you still awake? Don and Nawwaf are both asleep.. Ahhh... sleep potion?

Yep. Just trying to catch 5 fish here. Would really like to do this aspiration, but apparently.. since this is a Dynasty and NOT a legacy, I need to hurry



I'm sure you will catch something quickly

Do you think?



Um.. sure.. why not..



Well done!

Thank God.. Good night..

Hey.. What are you doing awake?

Don "It's daylight. Princess.. it's time to have a nap before we are all forced to go back home"

Yeah.. you are probably right

Have you enjoyed yourself Don?

Don "What are you kidding? I've got Mr Deaf Narcolepsy over hear.. and then Ms haven't slept in 48 hours over there.. thanks"

I'll be honest.. it could have been worse

Don "I know.."



[Finally at home]

And then when I tasted it again.. it was a mushroom!! Can you believe it?



Don "So glad that the Watcher decided to buy the outdoor Retreat pack.. that was a fun camping trip"

What?

Don "I was only saying it was nice to get away and thank you for putting in for a day's leave"



No you weren't.. you were thanking the watcher



Don "Oh... Gawd.."

Nawwaf  "Did someone say party?"



What are you wearing?

Who are you??

Don "Great costume Nawwaf! *whispering* Help me out here buddy"



Don't even bother! I'm home and going mixing baby!

Don "So we are OK?"

Yeah.. Rock on baby

Don "Done!"



So is this costume OK? I feel a bit.. oh I don't know. a bit .. wife.. that has a great job...ish..



Don "Perhaps you are right.. You really do look like a wife that has a great job.."

[sdhoey]

Don is such a sap!! LOL
