@Deklitch , The little IF spirits seem to be still present in the little dolls. They don't teleport around like gnomes, but they do change positions. I like to think that they come out and play with their owner's ghost. Okay, we've officially put way too much thought into this.
@oshizu , Yes, it was just the three of them at that point, but that can never last long. On the short lifespan, nothing lasts long.
Zulu was like a free-range chicken. He just ran around the yard doing what ever he wanted.
Breve Tripsalot took the motive mobile to Performance Park to perform for tips. No one was there, well it was the middle of the night. At least she didn’t embarrass herself.
She went to an empty gym and worked on her athletic skill instead, and got two promotions.
Yankee: You know, this would go even faster if you let me use those liquid job boosters we have in storage.
Those are for emergencies. This is not an emergency…yet.
That day both Yasmine and Yankee graduated. They went in and out of the courthouse at different times so no pictures were taken. Yasmine was voted Most Likely to Burn Down Their Own House while Yankee was voted Most Likely to Become a Sports-star. It just shows that being a teen for only 4 days doesn’t allow your classmates to really get to know you.
Melinda had discovered that the former toddler guy worked at the nectary. She sent Yankee off to buy some nectar.
Melinda: Be nice to the nectar merchant dear.
Instead, Yankee ran into Dana Lofton who she vaguely knew from school.
He deserves a close up.
Yankee: Ooo, you have the prettiest lavender eyes. Will you be my boyfriend?
Dana: Sure.
Yankee: How about moving in?
Dana: Love too.
Dana’s traits are Night Owl, Genius, Handy, Kleptomaniac, and Lucky. His lifetime wish – The Tinkerer. He has no Handiness or Logic skill points. Enjoy your multitab, Dana. He did, however, have four skill points in gardening and wished to become a professional gardener.
Dana was carrying a sloppy jalopy, a diploma, and a Most Likely to Take Over the World award.
Sorry former toddler guy. There’s no way you could match up to Dana.
There may be a lot of close ups.
Yankee: I suddenly feel compelled to watch kids’ TV.
Dana made extremely fast progress in his handiness skill and was soon fireproofing the stove.
All Yasmine ever really wants to do is play her guitar. That’s okay, busy sims are not flirting sims.
Upstairs, Yankee realized that she had a nooboo on the way.
Melinda: I really want to catch a perfect deathfish. Huh, outstanding…maybe tomorrow.
She never got the chance.
Melinda: Nooo, I want to catch a perfect deathfish! Oh, and see my grandchild born.
Melinda, age 28, joined the rest of generation 2. She supermaxed gardening, maxed fishing, reached the top of her gardening career, and provided a medium tombstone for a total of five points. Along with one from Zyra and twelve from Zulu, generation 2 made 18 points.
The grand total thus far is 32 points. Thank you Zyra, Zulu, and Melinda.
Yasmine and mostly Dana have been tag-teaming the garden. It’s been simplified to cash crops only. At this point that means red berry beans and six money trees.
Dana: Woo! Dancing to kids’ music is fun! I want to marry you.
Yankee: Yah, I’ll need to think about that for a while. I’ll get back to you.
Yasmine’s after work autumn salad was interrupted by Adult sparkles.
Dana’s shower upgrading was immediately interrupted for the same reason. Yes, they’re exactly the same age.
Pregnant women are not allowed on the treadmill, but this is just fine. During her pregnancy, Yankee managed to reach level 8 in athletics and level 7 in her acrobat career. No job boosters were abused in the process.
Yankee: Wake up, Dana. I want to marry you right now.
Dana is nothing if not cooperative.
Yankee: You are just sooo cute!
Yankee: Pant, pant – I want to be a Master Acrobat..pant, pant.
What?!?
Twin boys joined the family. The first born, Xerxes, is a Disciplined Virtuoso.
X-Ray, our heir, is a Perceptive Genius. (No, no, no, you will not be a pervasive private eye)
