The Snozzberries (Not So Berry Legacy) 7.3: Hand’s On Experience

Dexter: I know I’m good with my hands so I’ll keep doing what I’m good at. This bluebell here will look lovely in the Spring.

Watcher: Have you checked the mail, Willie? The flag’s up.
Willie: Great! Is it? I think…yes! It’s the last one in my postcard collection – Dragon Valley. Where is that?
Watcher: It’s a place from long long ago! Not sure how the mail works but basically you can’t go!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Willie: Last night was…perfect!
Dexter: Oh yes it was, m’lady.
Willie: Oh good and faithful servant! I love you!
Dexter: Do you like the BLT I made you? I’m still learning to cook so I’m sticking to non-cooker things.
Willie: So good with your hands!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Watcher: Um….Wanda?
Wanda: Yes?
Watcher: You seem to have developed a phantom pregnancy because – you’re not! Are you?
Wanda: I feel so bloated!
Watcher: I think a reset is in order here!
Wanda: Thanks

Rowland: This hot tub is a great addition to the garden.
Dexter: I wasn’t sure it would be in the budget but Willie’s given me carte blanche to use the Money Tree funds.
Rowland: It’s another way to relax with the meditation and yoga area over there.
Dexter: The garden’s still a work in progress. I think it will work but until the Spring growth comes in, I won’t really know. I might need to tweak it then.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Rowland: Hey! Where are you going?
Dexter: I think I heard Willie get back from work.
Rowland: You might want to put some clothes on. It being Winter still!
Watcher: I’ll sort it…in a minute…

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Dexter: I’ll just update my gardening blog. (tap tap tap). That’s odd! Willie’s writing isn’t on here. Unless it’s in a hidden folder. I wonder why she’s got it locked away. I must read one of her books one day.

Watcher: Willie? Why are you knitting on the loo?
Willie: I was just sitting here and thought…why not?

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Dexter: Ah! Help! What do we need to do?
Willie: He’s here! Welcome little Augustus!
Dexter: And little Septimus!

Elliot: Hello? Is anyone there?
Willie: Sh! Did you hear someone?
Dexter: Only your breath in my ear.
Willie: Oh Dexter!
Dexter: My Lady!
Elliot: Hello?

Watcher: Toddler racing and Augustus is in the lead, closely followed by Septimus.
Augustus: Gussie! Timmy!
Septimus: Timmy! Gussy!

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Willie: This is one of the first I wrote. I hope you like it, Gussie.
Gussie: ZZZZ

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Willie: Today’s royalties are looking really good. I’m not sure how much longer I’m going to be able to keep Candy Constantine a secret. I’m getting better with every book. My agent says the latest have really gone up a notch and are more realistic.
Watcher: Some real hands-on experience, eh?

Notes

Augustus is named for Augustus Gloop from Charlie & The Chocolate Factory. Not a particularly likeable character but really the only possible one for the Gen 8 requirements! With his twin brother arriving, Septimus comes from September following August. It made sense at the time.

The titles for Willie's romances are all phrases from Song of Songs - the raciest book in the Bible! (The first two are her children's books)

Augustus and Septimus as August and September.  Love it!
Of course, the best screenshot was when she was checking for pregnancy (or just going potty) while knitting.  Such a practical lady, our Willie!

I couldn't believe she'd  started knitting in there. I don't really understand why people would choose to read in there, but knitting!  What if she'd dropped the yarn? It doesn't bear thinking about.

The idea of Willie reading one of her own bodice rippers to the boys as toddlers is just too funny - and now that they're older they want to find and read them! And everyone finally finding out that Willie is the real author!  It's rather sad to see Rowland go; he was really such a great father.

Rest in peace, Rowland! You were a great father and grandfather.
And you were living your best life, surrounded by family in your golden years.

Haha, you've kept Dexter in his gardener's outfit.  Um, he's pretty ripped, isn't he?
What was going on with Wanda's phantom pregnancy?  Were you initially shocked?

Great names for the Gen8 twins and they're so cute!

Willie's first books were Children's books - her bonkbusters came once she'd got a bit of skill. I'm a bit concerned she's not hidden them well enough to keep them away from the boys. I think they're going to be a handful! ::)

Dexter's so good with his hands, he's happiest in his overalls! Plus I gave him the option of removing his shirt for sports - two outfits so it's his choice...nothing to do with his um anatomy.  ;)
I really panicked when Wanda came downstairs looking pregnant. Because I'd had the story on hold, I had to go check her relationships (no romantic ones) and the "buffs" didn't have a pregnancy one. I reset her but the next day was the same. Then Willie gave birth to the twins and the fake pregnancy didn't reoccur after that. I guess it was a funny bug but yes, I was shocked! lol.
I'm really hoping the boys turn out well. With their parents, it should be a shoe-in :D

The Snozzberries (Not So Berry Legacy) 7.5: Your Lips Drop Sweetness

Willie: I’ve got so many ideas in my head, especially from all my research. I’m so glad I’ve given up work, otherwise there’d not enough hours in the day! I’m not sure this one will be a Bestseller but it is Excellent.

Gus: Partners in Crime! Yes!
Tim: What shall we do first?
Gus: How about selling the exam answers?
Tim: Ha Ha Ha! And then let’s try starting a food fight!

Willie: You go ahead. I’m going to tell Dexter. He’s in the garden.

Dexter: Join me in the Hot Tub!
Willie: I’ve just written my 3rd Bestseller. Watcher said we should celebrate!
Dexter: I can think of a way…

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

Dexter: Willie? What are you up to now?
Willie: I thought I’d work on my Nerd Brain, now Pops has gone. If we ever get more stuff I’d be able to totally upgrade it.
Dexter: That’s a good idea. We miss him in so many ways.

Notes
Both of the pranks that the boys tried failed. They’ve both got low Mischief so I think that was the problem. It dropped their performance at school but not by much.

 [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]  [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

I’ve decided not to change Gus’s hair colour to peach as his black hair really suits his skin tone. There are limited options for peach coloured clothing so I’ve been aiming for yellow, orange and brown. I think I’m happy with the results but I may tweak them.

Dexter: So what are we role-playing this time?
Willie: I’m a smuggler, skirting the edge of the law and you’re a Prince on the run from an evil empire.

Dexter: Well, while we’re here….
Willie: The Dwelling?
Dexter: Yes, let's!

Willie: So much to write down. Now the boys are at High School and I don’t have to worry about them, it’s great to have all this time for my writing.
Watcher: And the research?
Willie: And the research.
Watcher: You might want to keep a closer eye on the boys.
Willie: They’re grades are so high, they’ve been offered early graduation. They must have been behaving themselves!
Watcher: Right! I wonder how that works…. Maybe some research…

Oona Luna: I was so glad your whole family decided to come to the Spice Festival.
Dexter: We wanted to catch up with you Granny.

Oona Luna: By the way, that’s your great grandmother playing the guitar – Rowland’s wife!
Dexter: No way!

Willie’s writing research has explored all 19 possible WooHoo locations for the packs I have. There are 2 more possible but they are not currently accessible to her and her research assistant (Dex). One is in a pile of leaves – only possible in Autumn. Her research assistant is working on making the other one possible! There are 2 others from the Vampire pack but I don’t have that.
Researched Locations: Hot Springs, Dumpster, Vault, Rocket, Lighthouse, Bush, Sleep Pod, Closet, Waterfall, Shower, Tent, Bed, Hot Tub, Sauna, Observatory, Photo Booth, Tunnel of Love, Animal Shed, on Batuu.

Rofl, I'm shocked that neither Willie nor her Research Assistant have thrown their back yet.
I recommend squats for lower back pain. Er, according to a friend...
Is it just my imagination or does Willie spend more time researching than writing lately?
🤣🤣🤣
