Three Strands Accord: Calixte Week 8: Laughter In The Rain
SpellcasterWatcher: Well done, Natalie, you’re getting on well with your magic skills.
Natalie: But I don’t really need them to move out.
Watcher: You don’t need much but you do need some. You’re collecting potions remember.
Natalie: They’re not worth much.
Watcher: But Spellcasters can only collect familiars which your Dad did, potions, wands or broomsticks.
Natalie: OK

Stephanie: You like pink, I like pink. We ought to get along.
Natalie: I don’t think so, farm girl. You’re definitely my enemy.
Stephanie: You witches are all the same!
Natalie: You don’t deserve to live in such a nice area!

Mosi: I did it! I did it!
Watcher: You certainly did. Well done.
Mosi: Time to focus on Natalie now. Not long to go. Hey! Our Free Love Nap has been repealed!
Watcher: Ah yes – did you notice you’d got new neighbours up the street.
Mosi: Yeah! Those Kennas! No way was I going for a Welcome Wagon!
Watcher: Emmanuel Kenna moved in with his husband Wolfgang but they didn’t like Free Love. Or at least Emmanuel didn’t.
Mosi: This might cause a few problems…

Shaina: Thanks for teaching me to ride a bike, Aunty Gemma.
Gemma: Am I your Aunty? …yes I think I am.
Shaina: I’m going to be the best at everything, just like you. You’re so cool.
Gemma: Cheerfully Single and Lovin It – that’s me.
Shaina: Is it true you’re not coming with us to our new home?
Gemma: Spot on, kid. If I come with you, I’ll have to age up. I’d rather stay young! I’ll visit every day though!
Shaina: OK
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Mosi: Are you sure, Grace?
Grace: Now we’re not in Free Love, I’ve asked Gemma just to be friends and Watcher thinks that, if I marry you, I might become loyal.
Mosi: Well? Did it work?
Grace: No, but I’ll work on being good. I do love you Mosi.
Mosi: I love you too.

Cyrus: Why are you out here in the pouring rain.
Natalie: My Watcher sent me out here.
Cyrus: You’d better come inside.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Natalie: Nice place you’ve got here.
Cyrus: It’s very stereotypical for a Spellcaster like me but Glimmerbrook doesn’t have good weather. I like being outside so I get wet a lot!
Natalie: I like being outside too. I like growing things, especially flowers. I’m growing a cowplant which isn’t edible so I guess it’s a flower…
Cyrus: Oh – I’d grow vegetables so I could cook with fresh ingredients. I’m a real Foodie like that.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Natalie: You’re….nice. I’m moving to a new house soon. You could come and help me choose which plants to grow.
Cyrus: I’d enjoy that. I haven’t really been out and about much.
Natalie: No. I did wonder why I’ve not met you at HQ before now…
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Natalie: Nat’s Moo! You’ve matured. Here’s some food so no eating anyone.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Natalie: Just put them on the ground? It seems a little casual…
Watcher: I’ll sort out a shelf. They’ll look fine.
Natalie: My portrait looks like I’m practising a martial art!
Watcher: But you’re really practising magic. It was the best one. It’s only Tuesday but, are you ready?
Natalie: As ready as I’ll ever be!
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Shaina: You said it was lovely over here on Bridgeview! It’s just as rainy.
Natalie: The weather’s the same as Ridgeline Drive but there’s a fishing pond over there. That’s going to be fun for someone who loves outdoors…
Aadan: But none of us do, sweet niece!
Shaina: Ha ha! You called her Sweet Knees! What am I?
Aadan: You? You’re Knock Knees! Ha ha!
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Natalie: Thanks for coming over in the rain, Cyrus.
Cyrus: Oh I don’t mind a bit of rain although we’re getting a lot of thunderstorms.
Aadan: Happy Birthday!
Natalie: pfft
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Cyrus: A rose for me? How perfect!
Natalie: I hope you don’t mind but I’m become quite the Romantic. It’s not surprising. Both my parents are.
Cyrus: I’d like to meet them.
Natalie: You can join the club if you like.
Cyrus: I’d like to do more than that, sweet Natalie. Can I move in?
Natalie: I thought you’d never ask!
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Cyrus: Where shall we put my bed?
Natalie: Oh we don’t bother with beds.
Cyrus: But if you’re to be my wife, where will we…?
Natalie: Let me show you the bathroom…
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Natalie: I’ve got some big news!
Cyrus: That’s wonderful
Gemma: And it’s still only Tuesday! Nearly midnight but still Tuesday. Spellcasters for the win!

Natalie: What are you doing here?
BH: I was wandering around when Watcher built your new house. Somehow I’ve got stuck here.
Natalie: But we don’t want to keep chickens!
BH: Stop looking at me and then at that pot!
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Shaina: I’m so glad Watcher is letting us keep you!
BH: Me too!
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Cyrus: Thanks for welcoming us to the neighbourhood. Natalie didn’t think you would with things as they are between her and Stephanie.
Maaike: Oh, my granddaughter wouldn’t come but, here, have some heirloom cake. I hope you like it.
Kane: I see BH has made herself at home here.
Cyrus: Oh, I hope you don’t mind. We couldn’t do anything with her so she was wandering around starving until we bought a coop. My little sister-in-law Shaina has grown quite attached.
Maaike: Stephanie was always more fond of the rooster. Anyway, I don’t think she’ll be taking them with her so, BH is better off here.

Mosi: Happy Birthday, brother!
Aadan: Thanks. You know, with the Bracing Breezes here, everyone can’t stop exercising, even for cake!
Mosi: What are you going to do now?
Aadan: Well, you know I’ve always been a Recycle Disciple? I’m going to be a Civil Engineer! I can work from home mostly, just like Natalie’s working from home as a Gardener.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Doll: I’m so glad you’ve joined our Civil Engineering firm. You’re such a good-looking young man.
Aadan: Ah – you’re Romantic, just like me.
Doll: It’s like we’re made for each other!
Watcher: But aren’t you already….
Doll: Butt out, Watcher! He doesn’t need to know about that.

Saturday Night:
Natalie: What do you think, Granny?
Kiama: Oh, little Emrys does favour his father with those piercing Spellcaster eyes.
[ You are not allowed to view attachments ]
Kiama: But you’re the heir, first-born Cassandra. Much is expected of you, but for now? Let’s just enjoy how special you are!

Watchers NoteThe Bridgeview Neighborhood does not have a Free Love Nap so I have no idea how Doll Robles could propose to Aadan despite definitely being married already. It may be their joint Romantic natures…? I hope Aadan doesn’t get his heart broken.
The Spellcaster eyes are a little disconcerting so I’m quite relieved that Cassandra doesn’t have them. It looks like she’s inherited Cyrus’ eye shape but that can change in aging. Emrys has quite alien skin tones. He’s going to be an interesting Sim, I think.
