Oooo, interesting.  Poor Cerenna XD Having a mother like Cersei can't be easy.

Ooo, another roommate challenge household.  I wonder if this will also go roommate-to-spouse or if it will take a different turn. 
The wedding was lovely, by the way.
Cerenna's rush to get out of the house is a nice, funny bit for the end of this household's time  :=)

Well, we have a few more chapters left for this house. Teaser though, the next house was a bit different.

Yeah, I figured any child of any version of Cersei Lannister would have it tough.

Re: Progress Report 009


Our house has four bedrooms and three bathrooms (one more of each than is required). Every room has floor and wall coverings. After depreciation, it is now worth $108,146 simoleons. Davos and I are about level 10 in Master of the Real and Patron of the Arts branches of the Painter career respectively. I have, of course, completed the photography “scavenger hunt.”

Cerenna will be a young adult in a few days. I’ve done the best I can with her. She could be so pretty if she would only make an effort.




Journal Entry, Myrielle Lannister

Mama said I am trying to drive her crazy. I am a bear. I want to look like a bear.



At first she did not understand. But then she agreed to wear dress up like a bear too.



I felt much better.

Re: Progress Report 010


We never did send you photos of Tommen’s birthday, did we? Sorry, it just gets so busy.

This is Tommen in our front room. Poor guy is always thinking about cats.



The kids keep us busy with their class projects, but they’re all A students.





Usually, as soon as they get home, they’re out on the patio doing their homework.



Anyhow, we’re all good.

Phone conversation between Serra and Marya Flint

Serra: Well, he took that better than I expected.



Marya: He has three out-of-wedlock kids. Why should he care that you and I have boyfriends who live with us?



Serra: Ramon is an alien.

Marya: Considering who Davos married, that’s meaningless.




Serra: I just wish we had more than the one restaurant.

Marya: If I have to eat that meatless Monte Cristo one more time…

Journal Entry, Cersei Lannister Flint

I have gotten woefully out of shape. Thankfully there’s an easy remedy.

I wish I knew why that print in the upstairs hall bothered me so much. It goes so well with the wallpaper.

Haha, you stuck some nice tidbits into this transitional update as we're essentially waiting for Cerenna to age up.  Nicely done!

I cracked up at that last part, about the painting XD And at least she indulged her daughter's bear phase.

I found the Stark cc and I couldn't resist using it for this house.

Journal entry, Cerenna Lannister

Mama and I had a long talk. Maybe we can have some kind of a normal relationship after all.

I was playing chess in the study and I watched them dancing in the studio.



Tommen had overheard a few things too.

I never know she has no memories before meeting Daddy.

That has to be so weird.

I just wish she would stop telling me my clothes are horrible. Like why does that matter so much to her? They’re just clothes. They don’t reflect who I really am.



Tommen said it was easier to just let her pick out an everyday outfit and she moved on.



Daddy said at some point I was going to have to accept that while maybe Mama and I don’t like each other, that’s not important. That Mama does love me and that he knows I love her.



My birthday party is later on. Dad asked if I was sure I wanted to be a Drifter.

I said I was 100% in.

Journal entry, Davos Flint



The birthday party was a big success. My sisters came by. Cerenna got hot-headed as her last trait.



Sigh.





Myrielle doesn’t seem to get why Cerenna will be moving out. We kept reassuring her that it wasn’t like we would never see Cerenna again.





Cersei and Cerenna had something of a strained goodbye, but I keep thinking about what Serra suggested to me—that maybe they’re going to get along better as adults and when they’re not sharing the same physical space 24/7.

Hopefully she’s right about that.






Watcher's note: One more chapter after this!

Re: Progress Report 011


I think this is our last report to you.

Attached are the photos of the house. I guess that’s kind of a tradition?

Front exterior. Cersei still thinks it looks like new money trash live here and felt we could have done a better job with the landscaping, but I've always been proud of the place.



Back exterior—that’s our studio next to the patio

This has been a lot of fun and on behalf of my wife, we’d like to thank you for the opportunity.

Watcher's Note: most of the cc comes from Peacemaker. I have a few pieces from Plumbob Tea Society and a few from MadHox. The roof on the studio is by Brazen Lotus.

Gorgeous house!
I especially like the master bedroom as well as the wallpaper in Myrielle's room.
Do the houses gradually get more and more costly, or is that just a coincidence so far?

Looking forward to reading about Cerenna and House 006!

The requirements go up and down. House 006 has quite a high requirement for the house, but then for the other challenges I've done the size and values all differ. The wallpaper in Myrielle's room is the one I have to look up because I found that on ModtheSims.

Lovely home!  Gotta disagree with Cersei here, that's a rather lovely and class place.
Can't wait to see the next house...well, empty lot at first, but eventually house  ;=)
