Chapter 12- BOOGA BOOGA!Greetings from Third Time's the Charm! So, Teodor died in the last update so let's start this edition with something a little bit on the happier side. Here is our insane little Palmira taking a dip in the pool in her formal wear.
Malley: Isn't that difficult to swim in your high heels?
Palmira: Nope.
Malley: Alright then.
Back inside, the kids were being better behaved and more mature than their mother. Persimmon was eating a healthy plate of french toast for dinner and Poppy was doing her homework.
At school, Poppy made some friends, including a boy by the name of Abraham Sosa. He had a brother named Felipe and Poppy ended up going over to the boys' house after school one afternoon. I, of course,
stalked them kept an eye out on the kids and discovered that the boys did have a house and that they had family in the house with them. Spouse material? Absolutely. I didn't have a preference between the two boys but Poppy seemed to favor Abraham. I suppose that was for the best since Felipe had the puke green hair.
It seemed that the attraction was mutual between Abraham and Poppy. Palmira kept an eye on her daughter and her future boyfriend, in any case.
Palmira: Does anyone else see floating hearts?
I kindly sent Palmira off to give Poppy and Abraham some privacy and they made their relationship official.
They not only agreed to become boyfriend and girlfriend, but Poppy also asked Abraham to go to prom with her.
Abraham: Of course I'll go with you! But can you keep up with my wicked dance moves?
Poppy: Sure I can. My name is Poppy and I can totally pop n' lock.
Malley: *face palm*
While his sister was off at prom, Persimmon was being a great little brother and checking under his sister's new bed in her new room for monsters.
Persimmon: OHSUGARHONEYICEDTEA!!!
Scary bed monsters were quickly forgotten when it was time for Persimmon to age up into a teenager.
Palmira apparently got carried away with her noisemaker and blew Persimmon's hat right off and messed up his hair too.
He decided to just forego the hat as a teen. Here is teenage Persimmon.
He gained the
Bookworm trait.
Persimmon was leaning toward following in his mother's footsteps and becoming an
International Super Spy. So, he decided to get a head start on his skills by trying his hand at the chemistry set.
Poppy and Persimmon both managed to get on the honor roll. He also tried to help out his sister in her garden so that she wouldn't be outside at all hours of the evening after school. Of course, he seemed more confused by the plants. Stick to chemistry, kid.
I think that Persimmon joining the Isla Paradiso Police Department was a great idea. He could help to keep his mother in check. Here is Palmira sneaking up on Poppy as she got herself ready for school that morning.
Mom of the year, for sure.
Palmira: I accept my award! BOOGA BOOGA!
Then again, maybe spending so much time with Palmira was starting to influence her son. I found him in his room one day, ranting about nothing to an invisible audience.
Oh, dear.
Thankfully, I was able to interrupt Persimmon and get him off his soapbox so that he could come and celebrate Poppy's young adult birthday.
Nothing like cake for breakfast!
Here is young adult Poppy.
I like to change up hairstyles throughout a dynasty/challenge but Rei's hairstyle really looked good on Poppy, so I went with it. The final trait she gained was
Nurturing.
That's all for now! Thanks for reading
