Supermanfan/Brandontaylor's Jones Multigenerational Save

[Supermanfan]

Hello, and welcome to the Jones Family Multigenerational Save. This isn't exactly a story but more about the events that happen and to watch the generations grow up and the family expands. Also, it is not a challenge or legacy so there are no rules. First of all, it won't start on Day 1 as I do not have the beginning save files. This means it will start with small updates that start at the Day 49 mark. Secondly, I am much farther than this with the family currently as I am at generation 5. I don't have much time to start posting everything yet but I've made a recent decision to play a bit in the old saves to show the family at these earlier stages. I do want you all to know I have posted this on the Sims Forums too but I'll be adding things here that aren't on that thread. You are free to check that out if you want to. I'm going to try and get the first post up either tonight or tomorrow. I hope you all enjoy!

Hey there! Sounds like something fun to post, I'll be snooping on the officials in the meantime.

Day 1

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
This is Emily Jones, a witch from Sunset Valley. She had no skills as she was fresh out of CAS at this point. I had her buy the Shotgun Style house which didn't leave her much money to start out with. I was playing on an older computer so I didn't have all my EP's on during the early days of the save. I ended up sending Emily inside to make apples with her magic until she learned the Conversion Spell. Once she learned that, she was transforming them at random when I got a Tiberium gem. I had her consign it after it was cut and grown which gave her the money she needed for a nicer house. She also did painting so that helped with her funds as well.

About a week into the save, Emily had already met her true love and had him move in with her. Christopher Steel and Emily went on a small vacation to the waterfall in Sunset Valley. She was still practicing her magic and Christopher was working on his fishing. They also woohoo'd a couple of times in their tent.

Their first child was a little boy that I named Eric. He didn't inherit his mother's occult status so I wasn't originally going to choose him as the heir. However, I soon changed my mind and he was chosen to bring in the next generation.

This is one of Emily practicing magic in the basement I made for her to practice magic in. It had the alchemy station and a private bathroom as well. Later on when Emily eventually passed away, I got rid of the basement as I didn't need it for anything.

I didn't take anymore photo's of this family after this one as I wasn't posting Sims stories at the time due to the awful computer and no internet so now it jumps to a later time period for the family. Next up is a small update I did the other day from a point near where this update ends.

You will meet them at a later date. However, I'm not worrying about adding any of Tommy's information here other than mentions and photos at later points in time.

Back to Eric and Fawn, this is their daughter, Melanie Jones. She was only a toddler here but currently, she is almost an elder in my newest save file. Her information up to this point will be added too.

Traits: Excitable, Virtuoso

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
This Sim is Carina Sekemoto, the daughter of Miraj Alvi and a female that I got to recheck on the name. She is just a random Sim from the save, but she is also the future mother of a Sim who will marry into my main family.

Next update will be a small one from Day 49 and is completely new to everyone, regardless if you've seen the story on the Forums.

Hey there! Sounds like something fun to post, I'll be snooping on the officials in the meantime.

That’s fine, there is a lot there already as I’m on generation 5 currently.

[Supermanfan]

First of all, we have Marisol Frio. She is the half sister of Fawn Ursine Jones and is Melanie's aunt. Her parents are Madison VanWatson and Jared Frio.


River McIrish is Tommy Bunch's mother, which makes her Jessica Jones' mother-in-law. I haven't been changing many Sims so this was what she chose to wear.


Kaylynn Langerak, all grown up. She is Dwight Langerak's mother, his father is VJ Alvi. Surprisingly, they made a good looking son.


And lastly, Zelda Mae Sekemoto is Quinton's grandmother. Her son is Garry Sekemoto.

[Supermanfan]

Sims Related To My Sims (Male Edition)


First up is actually one of my Sims, although he was born in game through NRaas Story Progression. This is Dwight Langerak as a toddler, you all know him now as the good looking werewolf husband of Melanie Jones Langerak.


And believe it or not, VJ Alvi is Dwight's father. Luckily, he did not inherit the hair color but I think it must be where VJ's granddaughter Ariana got her highlights from.


Dwight's uncle, Miraj Alvi.


Jessica's friend (future boyfriend/husband) was Tommy Bunch. This is him as a teenager on Day 49. However, I said they were boyfriend and girlfriend by Day 49 in a recent post, but they are actually only acquaintances at this stage.


Then we have the toddler version of Garry Sekemoto. He will later marry Carina Alvi and will father a son named Quinton. Quinton will then marry Ariana Langerak, becoming the stepfather to Daisy Langerak.

[Supermanfan]

Apparently, I stopped this save in the afternoon of their day. I didn't have Seasons installed at the time but I figured out what season I should be in and changed it for this flashback post. SP was shut off so nothing would happen that messes with continuity. Anyway, they were all hungry and there wasn't much in the fridge so I sent them to the Bistro for supper. Now the family owns it, but at this time, they had to pay full price as they hadn't bought it yet at this point.


Sandi French happened to be there as well. I believe where I am currently, she is no longer living. At this point, she was pregnant with a son who would be born as Scott McGraw. This is because Sandi's name changed to McGraw when Molly married Stiles.


While the adults were away, Melanie Jones played with the blocks. I can't remember, but she probably did pretty well with them as she grew up to be a good adult with four kids and several grandkids.


I had a look at her age and saw that she was a newly turned toddler at this point. She hadn't learned any of her toddler skills so I had Eric work on those. I won't be returning to this save file once these couple updates are done, but in the original version of this point, she learned them all.


I had forgotten just how great Emily using magic was. She had learned all the cool spells so she was able to clean house, and charm herself clean, among other things. The house she lives in with her family was bought with that Tiberium gem she got on Day 1.


Emily: Please stop calling me, I don't want a subscription to the Daily Plumbob!


Fawn was late due to work so she did have to eat leftovers instead of going to the Bistro with her family. She didn't mind, but she hates that her job keeps her away from Eric and Melanie.


That following morning, Christopher made breakfast for his family the way I had him do back when I actually played this day originally. This time, he made French Toast for them all.


While waiting on breakfast, Emily played around with her guitar. Once Christopher finished cooking, he called everyone downstairs to eat.


Jessica ended up beating her mother to breakfast, but she just barely got to talk with her dad before he finished eating. Fawn and Eric were a tad bit later as they were sleeping in a cheaper bed. That bed is the same one that Dwight and Melanie, and Ariana and Quinton will later sleep in as they all shift bedrooms.


Grandpa Chris went to play with Melanie right about the time Eric and Fawn woke up. Eric seems happy to see his father and daughter together.


A bit later, Christopher and Jessica shared their love of reading at the table. They didn't speak to one another, but just being together made them happy.

[Supermanfan]

Emily decided to throw a Snowflake Day party. Tommy Bunch was the first guest to open up a present.


Eric seemed happy with his Maxoid Game Simulator.


Fawn got a new guitar, which is fitting since she is in the music career.


Emily's gift was also a good one. She got an art easel, painting is one of her favorite hobbies. (I didn't have Ambitions installed, otherwise she'd have done sculpting too)


Christopher got the worst presents, mistletoe and a pink flamingo.


Sandi had fun dancing with Jared Frio (at least I think it's Jared).


In the front room, Denny McGraw was talking with Ayesha Ansari. The chat was friendly at least.


Sandi quit dancing with Jared to dance with Beau Andrews instead. Victoria was there, but she didn't dance with her husband.


Melanie had an accident in her diaper so Zelda Sekemoto was nice enough to change it for her. Little does Zelda know, her grandson will marry Melanie's daughter in the future.


Denny and Ayesha got a bit too friendly after a while. They never did anything else romantic, but I thought it was funny.


And lastly for this post, Emily had a chat with Jared Frio about their shared traits. However, a small disruption would soon happen that would cause the conversation to end abruptly.

All for today, tune in tomorrow for at least one more update.

[Supermanfan]

Jones Family Day 49 Flashback, continued



Emily's conversation with Jared was cut short because Sandi French went into labor. She'd later have a son she named Scott (Okay, Javon in this replay but Scott in the actual day played that led to where I am now (Day 145)


Sandi took off without giving birth, so the partygoers went off to do their own thing. Christopher and Jessica had a father-daughter bonding moment.


Emily must have been overwhelmed by the party because she went to grab a coffee. She seems happy with her mug.


About the time the partygoers were leaving, Christopher called the family to supper. Some of the guests had brought food so that is what they ate.


I didn't put up the mistletoe but Emily still got a Snowflake Day kiss from Christopher.


Boy, I must not have been paying much attention as these two are basically acquaintances that just met. That is bad, being siblings and all that. Anyway, Eric was not happy that Jessica was complaining about the dishes.


Eric walked away from his sister to give his wife, Fawn, a Snowflake Day kiss.


Christopher and Emily choose to woohoo in the elevator, which is right where Eric and Fawn were headed. I stopped them and had them change location to the bedroom. Thus ends this flashback to Day 49. Next update will be Day 56 where Melanie should be a child and Jessica might be moved out with Tommy. I haven't opened it yet so I'm curious to see where I was then.

[Supermanfan]

First of all, we have Melanie as a child. She didn't have any skills at this point, other than the toddler ones. It may have been her birthday right before I saved as it would fit with the age she was in the Day 49 flashbacks.


Christopher's clone, Christian Jones, was also alive by this time. If you remember, he will soon drown in a pool but Emily will resurrect him. I can tell because Christopher hasn't learned Ambrosia yet and he learned that after Christian died. (Most of you that read this here won't know about the drowning)


Here is Dwight Langerak as a child. He was a few days older than Melanie and they didn't know each other at this point. Of course, they will meet as teenagers when Melanie is a transformed werewolf.


I've shared a similar photo in the past so this is for those who haven't seen young adult Jessica Jones Bunch yet. At this point, she was married and living with her husband Tommy. I also believe she is pregnant with her first daughter in this picture.


Tommy Bunch as a young adult. In the flashback I'm getting ready to play, I'll switch to their household for a few pictures but the main focus will still be on my main household.


Hiram Bunch as a teenager. I'm not the biggest fan of his looks so I didn't have any of my Sims get with him. I try to choose ones who have a decent look to them if I can.


Carina Alvi as a teenager. (Quinton's mom)


And lastly, we have Garry Sekemoto as a child. He was close in age to Melanie and will be her first crush when she is a teenager. However, things don't work out and Melanie marries Dwight as a young adult. Garry will marry Carina Alvi and father Quinton Sekemoto, Melanie's future son-in-law.

Time to play the update. I may post it tonight but I'm not sure yet, just depends on how things go.

Day 56 Jones Family Flashback


When I opened up the save, everyone but Emily was sleeping. Emily was outside and had just taken a Potent Invigorating Elixir but I sent her inside to finish this painting. As you can see, she is now an elder like her husband.


I sent her down to her alchemy basement but the elevator would not cooperate with her and she got stuck between the doors. She also fell to the ground.


She had already maxed out the alchemy skill by this point in the save but I had her learn the one elixir she was missing. She was missing it because I didn't have Ambitions installed for the SimBot Converter. I'll make sure to give her ghost the chance to gain it too since this was just a throwaway save to play the flashback.


Upstairs, Emily had just finished washing a plate in the bathroom when Melanie came in to chat with her. Emily just adores her little granddaughter and is happy to have a female heir in the family.


Melanie did not seem impressed with the childrens TV channel.


Emily was waiting on the rest of the family to wake up so she decided to play her guitar in the kitchen. I can tell that Melanie's birthday was directly before this as I left the table I set cake on in the kitchen.


Christopher woke up and got dressed before reading this book in Eric and Fawn's room. Those two were sleeping when Christopher came in, which is a bit creepy. I wouldn't want my dad watching me while I was sleeping with my wife.


With his dad still reading in his bedroom, Eric went downstairs to practice his magic. He isn't as good as his mother but he isn't a slouch at it either.


The whole family was up so I sent them to the Diner to eat. The family at least had a partnership in the Diner by this time.


With breakfast finished, I sent the family to the park for a few hours. Emily and Fawn had a jam session, something I should have had them do more often in the original time period they lived together.


Christopher did his favorite pastime at the park: fishing. He caught a few different fish before I sent them all home.


Eric decided to play a game of chess with Carina Alvi. They were strangers to each other but they seemed to enjoy the game.


I had Christian and Melanie play on the swings together. Those of you who remember when I started posting this family regularly may remember that these two had a great uncle-niece relationship.


Melanie decided to have a little fun with her uncle. I'm thinking I may have to have current Melanie and Christian have an outing together when I return to the present.


And lastly, Eric had a chat with Miraj Alvi. After that, I sent the family home and switched active housholds. Next up will be a small update from Jessica and Tommy from the same day as this post.

[Supermanfan]

Tommy and Jessica Bunch (Day 56)


This was the house they were living in at the time. If something would have happened to Eric and Melanie both, Jessica would have been heir. I'm really curious how things may have been if she was heir?


Jessica had one skill point in cooking when I switched to the household. I had her make supper for her and Tommy. She had just given birth to Christen right before I switched.


Tommy was a bit busy at the time, trying to go to the bathroom and call the repairman for the TV. Jessica ate her supper alone.


Once supper was done, Jessica went in to check on Christen. She's happy to have a daughter but I wonder what she would think if I could tell her she'd have two more very soon?



Jessica gave Tommy a shy kiss for everything he's done for their little family so far. Then they decided to go watch the stars together, until Christopher showed up.


Jessica's relationship with her father was pretty decent so I had her give him a great big hug.


Christopher: Hello, little one. You're such a precious little thing, just like your cousin Melanie.
Christopher would be blessed with 4 granddaughters and no grandson's until his great grandsons were born.


Lastly, Tommy and Jessica had a great night of passion. Thus ends this flashback.

[Supermanfan]

After I had originally reached Day 91, I got bored of the family and deleted the saves I had backed up but luckily I was able to recover Day 49 and resumed the family from that point. Of course, things went differently from that point but led to where I am now. I had to laugh when I played shortly after Christian was cloned. Emily and Christopher, both elders, took Melanie and Christian to the pool. I sent them all to swim while Eric  went to meet Gage Briody for an opportunity. As for Fawn, she was flirting with her ex-boyfriend, Sam Sekemoto at home. Sam was a recent victim of a Large and In Charge elixir. I was so focused on her wish to flirt with someone other than Eric and I didn’t pay any attention to the pool. The camera zoomed to the pool where Christian, only a child, drowned to death. Luckily, Emily had a Philosophers Stone and she brought him back as a ghost. I laughed though because the family kept getting the negative moodlet due to the ghost in their midst.

When I brought the family back from the pool, Christopher (Steel) Jones immediately began to read the ambrosia recipe. He had already maxed cooking shortly before becoming an elder, and he was a retired celebrity chef. Emily had two Deathfish in a chest, she got those by converting apples. The Watcher blessed the family with one Life Fruit plant, giving them rules to only use it for emergencies. Emily, as I mentioned before, was a powerful witch but not enough to resurrect Sims. Luckily, she has a Philosophers Stone and brought Christian back as a ghost. He had to wait a few days, but the Chris clone ate the ambrosia his “father” Christopher made. A few days later, he aged up to teen and went off to boarding school. That is where I left off. Eric is almost a CEO now and his wife Fawn Ursine Jones is halfway through the music career. Now I'll be posting one more flashback update before I start posting some original posts to catch this story up to current day.

[Supermanfan]

Flashback to Day 63


This is Brianna Alvi as a toddler. She is the daughter of Darlene Bunch and Miraj Alvi, making her Carina's sister and Quinton's aunt. She will later grow up to have a quick fling with Eric after Fawn dies. You will see that in my End of 2020 post later today.


Christen Bunch aged up to a toddler by this time, too. Actually, Jessica was pregnant with Christen's sister Alicia at this time.


Dwight Langerak as a teenager. This would be a day or two before he and Melanie meet on a full moon. They actually know each other from school, but they were not friends at this point. The meeting between them will be quickly recapped in my 2020 post.


Garry Sekemoto as a teenager. At this point, he was good friends with Melanie and was one of her crushes. She wasn't dating anyone at this point, although she did start dating a Bunch shortly after as she and Garry didn't have compatibility.


This time, Emily was the one who cooked breakfast. She was the first one up so I had her make pancakes.


Everybody ate breakfast together except for Fawn. She had worked the night before and was still sleeping. Also, Christian wasn't here either as he was still in boarding school.


Melanie had her first transformation into her werewolf form. She then did a couple hunts before turning back.


Autonomy made good use of Eric's Couch Potato trait. He no more and finished breakfast then he went to the TV.


Emily always seems to go for her guitar when I'm not making her do other things. She already maxed it so she is actually better than Fawn is.


I went ahead and brought Christian back home, even if it may break continuity a bit. He seems happy to be home.


Emily had the bright idea to throw a party at one of the local pools. Eric seems to think this isn't the best idea.
Eric: Do you think it wise to bring Christian to the place he died?
However, Christian seems determined to face his fears and have a fun time.


Emily decided to have a nice chat with her best friend Zelda. I had almost forgotten how close these two were, even though they didn't get to see each other a whole lot. River decided to watch as she wanted to talk to Emily too. Garry just seems to be impressed by Emily, it must be because she is a witch.


Christian was so brave that he and his "father" had a Hold Breath contest. I don't know who won as I had a lot going on at the time.


Garry and Melanie had a nice chat but it didn't go anywhere. Melanie started to have a few doubts about trying to get in a relationship with Garry.
Melanie: It's a shame, but I just don't feel anything for you, Garry, other than friendship.
Luckily, Garry couldn't hear her thoughts but he was probably thinking the same thing. However, it would take a full moon before Garry realized he definitely didn't want to date Melanie. This would lead to her destiny with Dwight Langerak, thus changing the family name and the name of the save.


Eric and Jessica had a nice conversation. I actually think Jessica would have been a good heir too, but Eric was older so he was picked. Jessica's family is getting Portered with some other households so we will continue to see her descendants when I return to the present.


Fawn didn't seem to mind that there were impressionable teenagers at the party. She still jumped into the pool without any swimwear, just to show off her body to make Holly Alto jealous. These two hated each other and I have no idea what had happened.


Melanie decided that she'd teach her mother a lesson. She ended up stealing Fawn's clothing.


Fawn and Holly had an argument as Holly was getting tired of Fawn. Fawn decided that she'd insult Holly and call her a big baby before proceeding to ask her if she needed a diaper change and a bottle.


Holly had enough and decided to harass Fawn with her cane. The look of fear and surprise in Fawn's eyes says it all. She decided it wasn't worth fighting so she took off for home.


Back at home, the family ate their supper in swimwear as they talked about their day.


Then it was time for prom. Melanie had picked out a nice dress, but did not have a date. Sadly, she never got with anyone at prom. However, Christian was able to charm Carina Alvi and they became romantic interests. However, Christian would soon move to the next girl and Carina would fall in love with Garry Sekemoto. This, of course, would result in the birth of Quinton Sekemoto.


Emily went to Blair Goth's party alone. Fawn was at work and the kids were at prom, while Christopher was doing an opportunity.


I was a bit surprised that Emily had hearts for Cycl0n3. I actually have never played him, but I have been reading a story with him as a main character.


And lastly, Emily had a small chat with Ethan Bunch before leaving the party.
