RIP Flip and Peanut, I guess he was excited to finally have a rest in the great beyond. Congrats Cuda, can't wait to see where they're heading.

*Sharp intake of breath* Nooo... <sniff> RIP Flip, and Peanut too of course. I think I may have to adopt 'fliptastic' it's just such a great word. I don't know about anyone else but knowing that it was French grass just made it all so much more exciting. lol, your humour KRae is awesome.  I too can't wait to see where they are going.

@Tixxis , Thanks! Fishing is a good skill to press 3 on.
@Nettlejuice , Flip was great! In retrospect, I'm delighted he only got to level 9 in sports and only completed one career opportunity. Now I'll be able to use Sports instead of Military in the future.
@Playalot , next line will tell what grass we'll be seeing for a while.

The Does moved to a little inconspicuous house in Dragon Valley. Peanut did his buy and consign thing at the elixir shop and started an alchemy garden.


Barracuda used some of her accumulated happiness points to get a dusty old lamp. It financed a remodel and a quick trip to China. Yes sure, play for tips at the graveyard. Midnight is only 6 hours away, maybe someone will turn up to watch. They didn’t.


Back home, Cuda caught some alley catfish and angel fish so she could stalk a pond at home. Ah, Dragon Valley is truly beautiful.


This is their little house. The cemetery is directly across the street . To one side is the business office with the grocery/diner on the other. There seems to be a singer performing 24/7. Nuala something. One of the perks of living downtown, I guess.


Day two in Dragon Valley finds our couple attempting to begin their family.


Apparently it worked.
I’m pregnant.
Pat, pat, pat. Good for you.


Flash forward.
Cuda: I love the outdoors, I love the outdoors. Holy John and Jane!


It was worth it all.
Heir Nine – Spin Doe, Friendly and Heavy Sleeper


Spin learned all his toddler skills, but mostly he did this.


Sleep well on your carpet, tiny heir. Tomorrow you get a big boy bed.

Welcome to Spin! He is so cute and got a nice combination of his parents' genetics.

Also, welcome to Dragon Valley 

[Playalot]

I was so excited that I could tell it was DV just by looking at the grass and light before I read your chapter. lol. DV is my fav place in the simverse. So you know what I'll be doing today. *Ditches TS4 and heads to DV* And welcome little Spin, what a cutie. 

[Nettlejuice]

Lovely Dragon Valley, Spin will be spolit for choice when it comes to love 

[Tixxis]

Blue hair! Love it!

[KRae]

@Malley , He may have gotten the best of both.
@Playalot , This is the first time I've used Dragon Valley in a dynasty. It's so easy to place everything, and my family's house is right in the middle of everything. I love it!
@Nettlejuice , There are so many interesting looking sims.
@Tixxis , His dad's blue hair and his mom's blue eyes look amazing together.

The family celebrated Spin’s birthday the next morning.
Interesting blend of casual and dress. Maybe blend is the wrong word.


Peanut had his adult birthday the next evening next to the computer. No surprise.


Barracuda went next out by her pond. This is their second time aging to adult with no mid-life crises. They bought a car anyway.


Spin gave his mother a birthday gift, his special doll disturbingly named Peanut.


Man the torpedoes, prepare to dive! Watcher approaching!


Spin: When I asked for a bedtime story, I didn’t mean Logic 1.
Peanut: Well, it’s put your mother to sleep.


The next day Spin went to his second and last day of elementary school.

[Tixxis]

"Man the torpedoes, prepare to dive! Watcher approaching!"
I love this boy. 

[Nettlejuice]

Spin gave his mother a birthday gift, his special doll disturbingly named Peanut.

So eerie xD Ah, Cuda falling asleep listening to a Logic book, lol.

[KRae]

@Tixxis , As it turns out, everyone loves Spin.
@Nettlejuice , Falling asleep to the logic book - I may be projecting there.

After school, Spin became a teen.  He looks a little stunned by the whole idea. Or maybe he’s just hypnotized by those yellow shoes.


He soon had himself sorted out, and took off to take a charisma class (his new trait). Spin had been a very outgoing little boy, so as soon as he got his first charisma level, he also became a Personable Celebrity. Our man about the town.


Spin: Sink booby-trapped , check. Sneak off to school before anyone notices, check.
You know, Spin, no one actually ever uses that sink.
Spin: I don’t want to get into trouble.
Okay you little rebel, you. We’ll just leave it and see if it’s still like that when your great-grandchild is ready to move.


Diva Teen Boy O’Reilly came home from school with Spin and tried to pick a fight with Peanut.  Maybe Peanut asked him if he’d ever looked in a mirror.


The next day Spin went to the O’Reilly house after school. He made five new friends there, and got to watch one of Diva Boy’s sisters (Morrigan) knock him through a wall. Both O’Reilly girls are Young Adults and quite impressive.


Two days before his next birthday, Spin completed his Lifetime Wish, Super Popular, even though he’s only at level 3 in Charisma. Way to go.

That's Morrigan there on the soap box with the megaphone.

[Playalot]

Is that Peanut the IF all pink and bald?  Cripes! Spin's a totally honey though.

[KRae]

No, that's the youngest O'Reilly kid. The new Peanut IF will not become real. Spin gave it to Barracuda and she has no relationship with it.

[Playalot]

Ohhh! Sorry, my bad. Got confused there for a while!

[KRae]

It might help if I could actually remember the kid's name.
