The Copernicus Immortal Dynasty: Hermes vs. Hades (Failed)

[Lilygirl]

Great start, Alexandria! I'll be coming back here for more.

Thanks A.Drake and lilygirl
Close! I'm naming them after things in our solar system. I'm kind of a big astronomy nerd

Nicolaus Copernicus was an astronomer/mathematician/physicist. He was the first person to make a detailed model of the planets and Earth, though he thought the planets revolved around Earth.

I was going to go with the last name Galilei, because Galileo Galilei (another physicist/astronomer/mathematician) is my favourite historical figure ever. He is the one that proposed that the planets revolve around the sun. However, when I was thinking of possible names for future generations, none went with Galilei.

The next day, Agnes signed up as a self-employed sculptor and I began working on my garden.



After a hard days work, I decided it would be nice to make some sort of social contact with the outside world, so I headed over to the neighbours house.
I rang the doorbell and a stout man came out and shook my hand. His name was Nick Alto.


We chatted until I decided I should go back and check on Agnes and her sculpting. She'd already electrocuted herself twice from trying to fix things, so who's to say it won't happen a third time? I think she needs my supervision at all times.

On my way out, something caught my eye.
I wondered, "Should I..? Well.. no-one is watching..."


But I couldn't stop there. I headed over to a big house on the beach, and I found another car to lift.


I told myself it was all for the best. It'd help our family. Those rich people replace their cars like their paperclips anyway.

When I got home, the most amazing thing had happened: Agnes was pregnant with our first baby.


During the pregnancy, we both read books on how to raise kids together. I often felt the nooboo kick in her stomach, and had conversations with him/her.





I really did love Agnes, and I made sure she knew it.
"You're going to be the perfect mother", I told her. Her smile told me all I needed to know.


Later that afternoon, I went to check up on how Agnes' sculpture of an alligator wearing a top hat was going, when something hit her..



All I could do was panic.

Aw such a cute couple!
Congratulations to the soon to be parents

Oooh New Dynasty and nooboo imminent all in one sitting, great start, I will be looking forward to seeing the baby Sim.

We welcomed Jupiter Copernicus into the world...


And her two brothers, Orion and Aries.



Triplets were certainly a big surprise for both of us!
Jupiter and Aries are artistic and hate the outdoors; Orion is a loner and loves the outdoors.

As Agnes spent all of her time sculpting in hope to add sculptures of us into our future immortal museum; I was the one who cared for the babies.



The day for everyone's birthdays came around very quickly.
Agnes aged into an adult, and had a midlife crisis. She was still a loner, but she now hated the outdoors, was handy, a savvy sculptor and a perfectionist.


The babies also aged up into toddlers.
None of the toddlers inherited our hair colours. Jupiter and Orion inherited my eyes, and Aries inherited his mothers.




I'd heard gossip of a plant at the science facility that grows whatever you feed it. I was very curious, and decided to call a babysitter, buy an expensive book and try it out.


But when I arrived back home, all my babies needs had been neglected. I felt horrible for leaving them in such incapable hands. Candy Ashleydale was fired immediately.


From then on, I did all the caring and teaching.




And our babies kept themselves entertained with art books.


Meanwhile, Agnes still slaves away at the sculpting station.
She was sad to miss the toddlers growing up, but she knew that they were in good care.
She hoped that her little Jupiter would grow up ready to take her place as the family sculptor and artist.
She wished that see could also live with her forever, but she knew that fate laid in only my hands.

Wow, triplets.  It is bad enough one has die, but two is even harder.  Cute nooboo's.

[ADrake]

Glad I was close on the theme, I love it by the way! My dad is huge into Astrology, not that I know anything about it. Orion is the only one I can ever find. Anyway keep up the great work, I will keep reading!! 

[Lilygirl]

Gorgeous nooboos everywhere! Congrats.

Trying to get everything done as well as looking after three toddlers is extremely hard. I didn't think Agnes would be able to get her portraits done, but luckily she did.

Triplets! I had triplets as well in my dynasty. By far the hardest thing I have ever done sim-wise. But it looks like you've done a great job.

My computer seems to have a bug or something, so I'm going to have to send it off to the technicians.
I'm really hoping that they don't have to format the computer, but at the moment it's looking like they may have to. That or I buy a new computer.
So there may not be any posts for a few days, and I may have to start my dynasty again when the computer's fixed.

[ADrake]

Oh!  I'm sorry to hear about your computer problems, I hope you get it back soon and that it is nothing too serious!

Great news - my computer is fine (just needed a bit of work done on the fans) and I can continue my dynasty 

[ratchie]

Thank goodness for that.
