I would have thought that Lexa of all people would appreciate deviant behavior. :P

I've just read the entire story and I kept laughing all the time, even though I'd read it all before!  :P

I just realised that this story is one of my top most most viewed websites. Yup, it's up there with Google and Hotmail  :P
Lexa is a meanie. Well, she is the Empress of Evil!

I've just read the entire story and I kept laughing all the time, even though I'd read it all before!  :P

Wow, I'm glad you love it so much! I really enjoy writing it so I'm always happy when it makes people laugh.

I would have thought that Lexa of all people would appreciate deviant behavior. :P

I suspect it's because they're not being deviant enough. Teen parties? Could have pranked loads of people in that time.

Unless she's been possessed by her father!

Well, or it could be that!

I thought Lexa would be proud. Poor October and Verity

I know, I feel quite sorry for them, they didn't even make much of a mess.

Quite a rushed chapter. Sorry.

Another Deathday, Another Birthday



Verity is trying very hard to make up for the parties by fixing the shower.

Lexa: PARTIES? I only knew about one!

Oops.

Verity: Thanks, watcher.



Verity: Now I have to make dinner too to apologise.



Tober is practicing her piano. I don't like limiting my sims to only one skill as I'm always worried they'll struggle to get the 10 opportunties for the moving requirements, especially as a lot of the school and celebrity ones were taken by earlier generations. Painting is her supermax, though.



Meanwhile Lexa donates a bit of money to undermine charity.

Lexa: Financing evil is just as important as doing it.



Lexa: Verity?

Verity: Umm...yeah?

Lexa: I'm sorry I shouted at you for that party. Sometimes tough love is a good thing though. And anyway, it'd not like you're even any good at being bad.

Verity: Thanks. I guess.

Roderick: Come on! Shoot him!



Tober: Maybe if I get this portrait of Dad nice, I'll finally be un-grounded.



It was just in time that she started painting that, because outside...



Lexa: Roderick!

Grim: Oh come on now. Empress of Evil, cares?

Roderick: That's it darling, keep Grim distracted and I'll just sneak off and hide like I did when your work colleagues came over.

Grim: Heard you.



Roderick: Please! Give me more time! It's my little girl's birthday tomorrow, please let me see her graduate!

Grim: Umm. No.

Roderick: It was worth a try.



Lexa: My husband just died. I think I'm in shock.

Verity: Roderick!



Lexa: I miss him. That's not very evil, but I do.

You're allowed to.

Lexa: If you dare tell anyone you've just seen me crying...!



Verity: I will not be shy. I am a nice person and lots of people want to be my friend. Just because I don't know somebody, doesn't mean they don't like me.

Tober: Tea, the party guests are here!



Lexa: Don't worry, this one's parentally approved. And so is this hot-tub. I even got it for free because I'm a celebrity, and this picture is going to be in all the papers.

Is it really a good idea for a criminal boss to be a celebrity?

Lexa: Yup. I'm famously scary.

Famously non-scary, more like.



This party is a lot more sedate than the last two.



Lynette: AHHHH! A CRIMINAL!



Lexa: Mwahaha.

In fact, the only disturbances are caused by Lexa.



The next day, Tober and Verity went on a field trip to the graveyard. Everyone else in their school seems to have graduated already, which is weird as there were still some teens at the sleepover last night. Tober is definately the star pupil, by the looks of it.



This is my favourite painting that Tober has done so far. It's the nursery rhyme about the cow jumping over the moon!



Lexa: Tober, look. I'm not upset anymore that you chose to go into the art field rather than becoming a criminal like me. It suits you, and you're good at it. You'd be a terrible criminal. I'm proud of you for your art, and for not ruining my reputation by becoming a bad successor.

Tober: Thanks Mum. I'm glad you're proud of me, even if it is for weird reasons.



Tober: It's my birthday today, Kris!

Kris: Yay, I'm happy for you! *internally* And you're finally going to be old enough for me to kiss you again. Win.



What do you wish for, babe?

Tober: To actually get some cake before everyone else nicks it.

Aw, bye Roderick  :(
You had to cope with Lexa's evil schemes and two teenage girls but you managed somehow  :)

Awesome updates! Tober and Verity are so cool, I think they are one of my favourite generations so far! RIP, Roderick. :(

I don't know if it's fair to just assume that Ariana has time to do spin-off stories for everyone. I don't know if she plans one for Anais, but if she doesn't, I don't know if commenting about it all the time is going to be of very much help. I'd feel really pressured - I already do, with three stories of my own and it isn't easy to play them all and get timely updates. :-\

If that's the case, I apologize. Sometimes I forget others don't have all the fee time I do  ::)

He managed rather well for such a mad household! Poor Roderick.

They're my favourite generation too at the moment, but then every generation has been my favourite at the time, so...

And thanks :)

No worries. I'd love to do a story for Anais, but I just don't have the time with trying to finish my decadynasty. I've just got a promotion at work, which is really exciting and doing something I've wanted to for a while, but it's also really hard! I'm also trying to finish my decadynasty up before I move house in November, which means doing four more generations in two and a bit months.

Coconuts and Diplomas



Tober: Wow. I think I may have been the first person ever to age up in decent hair and clothes.



Tober: But, unfortunately, everyone here is clearly mad.

Kris, Evan, Kory: Haha! Haha! (said in the style of Millhouse from The Simpsons)

LeAnn: What? Flippers aren't appropriate party-wear?

Lynette: There's someone pointing at my stomach. Why are they pointing at my stomach?

Lexa: That's it, I'm off to go make exploding chemicals.

For once, I'm with Lexa.



Tober nips to the dresser for a quick recolour of her outfit.

Tober: Help. No, seriously. Stop narrating and help!

She gains the Natural Born Performer trait.



Everyone's gone by the time it's Verity's turn at the cake. And aging up in your swimwear is never going to be a good idea, babe.



Told you.

Verity: Must...not...look...down. The embarassment of wearing only coconuts and string!



Verity: On the plus side, nobody's here to see it.

She becomes charismatic.



And after a quick wardrobe change runs off to join the inventor career.

Verity: And I just sold everything I'd made as a teen and I'm at level four already.



Meanwhile Tober is painting. She's got about three paintings left to supermax, and is at level nine and three-quarters of the skill and then she'll be joining her career.



Verity: And this, it's hopefully going to make your house smell fresh at all times. It'll have varying scents, depending on your preferences.

Paparazzi 1: Interesting. And when will it hit our stores?

Lexa: After she's fixed the TV!



Or maybe this thing could do that. Or maybe not. Maybe I'll stick it into someones inventory so it doesn't look quite so freakily at me.

Verity: Aww, let it be. I think it's kinda cute.

CUTE?!

Lexa: Aha, I have finally found my minion!

CUTE?!



As soon as Tober gets up she paints. She'll hopefully be down to one painting left to supermax by the time graduation happens.



Verity: I need to practice my charisma, can I talk to you about how clever you are?

Lexa: I like you. I like you a lot. Please keep going.



It's time for graduation. Congratulations, Tobes!

Tober: Can I have children yet then?

No, sorry. There's another three sim weeks before we can even begin to think about that.



Congratulations, Verity!

Verity: Can't I stay behind and finish repairing the TV? I'm scared I'll fall over on the stage.

Tober: No! Come on Tea, you'll be fine!



Paparazzi 2: What do you think you're all doing?! GOING OUT?! I can't take embarassing pictures of you if you're not here!



Verity: Yay, I didn't fall over, and now I never have to go to school again!

She was awarded "Most Likely To Blow Up Her House" (or whatever it's actually called). I hope she doesn't.

Lexa: I hope she blows up the police station instead.



Tober: I'm free! Free to paint all day!

Erm, no you're not. She was, unsurprisingly, given "Most Artistic" as well as Valedictorian.



Irene Su: I'm watching you. I'm waiting. I will see you when you come out of there!

Erm, Irene, they did. Several hours ago. While you were standing there ranting.

Of course you update just as I leave this thread so when I navigate to "New Replies", It takes me right back.

Funny, I've never gotten that Gnome thing before.
