RIP Jamie, I felt so bad when Sapphire and Stephan had to blow out their birthday cake candles when just a few minutes ago, Jamie had died. :( It's so tough when a sim has died, oh well, the story must go on.

Turbulent times

Jamie's gone. All eyes are on Agness. They were the same age, so Grim could come back any minute now. Sapphire didn't even tried her cake, because her aunt Agness was waiting at the easel. After masterpiece portrait, race for masterpiece sculpture started. 3 days later,  that was done too. Sapphire was very angry at well, almost everyone, she had a wish to become Superspy so she applied for job in police forces. And went to China. Stephan followed her, still unemployed, and very confused about his own future.



Stephan was devastated. His own mother never told him anything about immortality, and never even considered she should comfort her mortal son. When he told her he wish to learn all the recipe's in the world, she was mad. Only comfort was that she didn't mind him painting. But she wanted him to just paing, nothing else.. poor Stephan.. he loved plants and loved to cook, as much as he love easel.. one question was always in his head.. is his mother so unhappy because of him? Would she loved him more if he was her "real" son?


Sapphire jump on treadmill, and hardly ever went off. Her body was running but not as fast as her mind. So many question in her head too. Her mom died just when she thought of possible romance in her life. Now she won't be there to share that. They've become closer than ever just before... Where is she now.. How could she help her father.. once a hero who fight the fire and saved lives, now spent all his time with chainsaw and ice. Forever? Really? There had to be more than that. Emerald is still staring in Jamie's picture with love... but why none of them talked to her and Stephan?

China has that special mood that evoke wisdom in honest searchers. Both Stephan and Sapphire find the answers they needed. Stephan made peace with his unsatisfied mother, and decided to pursue his desires and to help Sapphire in her duties as heir. Sapphire decided she would continue doing her best to fulfill the requirements, but romance is postponed for now. Her heart is not ready, and she want to focus on career. Ah well.. she might live forever, but not as young and beautifull as she is now.. or will she?

Back in Sunset Valey, Stephan followed his dreams. It wasn't a pleasant dream, cleaning dishes in dirty kitchen, but it is a start. He also picked up the garden after Jamie. It wasn't all perfect but he was going there..

And Sapphire, well she decided to change her look.. into more feminine version. She's not wearing heals on job, but in the club her other side is shinning. After all, once she become Superspy she won't wear that uniform all the time:

Soon, promotions lined up, and now she's half way there. Family now own few interesting vechicles:

And not too long after that, she supermaxed painting.. with style:

But something is not right.. it is week 10. Agness is still there.. age 108 days.. emerald is doubting her now, so he keep an eye on her. And the best way to do that is - ask her to pose for sculpture:

She is not happy with that, but she is never happy, so that is nothing new. So now, we are all waiting for Grim to come..

I love Saphire's dress, she looks like she should get a slow motion moment with her own dramatic background music as she's coming out of the elevator, that's how glamorous she looks  ;)

So many events to congratulate you on! Getting that masterpiece Portrait, but especially that masterpiece Ice Sculpture! And of course supermaxing painting!

This was a really great update. I love how you take us on the emotional rollercoasters that are present in people's minds after they lose someone precious to them. The struggles Sapphire and Stefan are coping with feel very real.

And way to go Agnes! 108 and still grumpy over having to pose for an ice sculpture; that's how we know her!

Thank you everyone! My internet connection was so bad last 2 days, I wasn't shore I've managed to upload this last chapter.
 
Awesome update! 108! Wow way to go Agnes!  ;D
Thanks Esther, she's still there, almost 120 days.
I love Sapphire's eyes!! She is gorgeous. Good luck to her in her career and congrats on supermaxing painting.

I hope Stephen can find peace with his mother before she dies, and that he can follow his dreams and passions.
Thanks lily, she is the reason I love playing this dynasty now, really gorgeous Sim :D Stephen and Agness are in focus in one of the next chapters.
Awesome as ever!  :)
Thanks Samoht!

Hehehe, I imagined that same way you described ;D. Her transformation is really stunning, and I love that pattern Gheez made so most of her clothes has it.
Happy Birthday to Sapphire and Stephen! R.I.P Jamie

Thanks Gogowars. I'm would love to have more of unique vechicles but can't think of any other profession that gives it. I'm not shore if it is possible to acctually own limo. It would be awesome to get a tank with military career too :D

Thank you Phyre! I gave Agness midlife crisis, but she still has those grumpy expressions! I'm glad you like the way I lead them through this. I didn't get a chance to direct a scene of serious conversation while they were teens, so it turns out like this. More reasons for Sapphire to become immortal immortality guider (with books Agness wrote) for future generations. Masterpiece Ice Sculpture is extreemely rare, it is driving me crazy sometimes! I had to place sculptor bench in empty room to be able to evaluate the statue before it is sculpted by that decorative moodlet. Uhh probably the hardest part of this challenge.
Way to go Aggie! We believe that you'll break SimRecords! ;D
Awesome chapter, Anushka! I love those vehicles.
Thanks Chronic! Aggie is still there, I think the record was 139 days, but don't know for shore. If you find somewhere what was the record age, please let me know. It won't be a problem if Aggie live that long, but for some future spouses I hope they don't!

The unofficial record for longest living Sim on this forum (Normal Life setting) is none other than Chris Steel in a Dynasty somewhere. I think he potty trained and painted portraits for the first 4 generations. I'll let you know if I find that Dynasty story.

Wasn't it Pam's Dreamweavers?

EDIT: Pam's Chris was 117 Days Old. I don't know if it was him though?

No it wasn't Pam's Chris. I'm still looking.

EDIT: In cathyknits' The River's Daughters Dynasty, Chris Steel died at age 152, here. He painted the toddler portrait of generation 4, I believe.

Hey cathy! I was editing when you posted.

It was mine - Chris lived to be 152. And yes, he potty trained and painted the toddler portrait of the 4th gen immortal!

Here's the post where he died.
