The CrumpleSteel DecaDynasty: COMPLETED 11/11/13

[RainBeau]

I have to agree, a laugh-out-loud chapter for sure. "Real sad" face down on a waterslide was classic. As well as Kieran's idea of asking out a girl. And basically everything. I even laughed when Kris told you you couldn't know, because of course you're writing it, so that broke a few walls. Yeah, Hilarious, carry on.

[Snufflesxx]

Good work Kieran 
He should tell her that he used to have an awesome hat...

(Where can I get that hat, Ariana?)

[ArianaJade]

Thanks everyone. Kieran's teen hat is this one, Snuffles.

Death! At A Wedding



Tober decides that now her kids are old enough and stupid enough to look after themselves, it's time for her to get back into her music.



And she even has young fans, unlike most ageing stars.

Tober: Oi. That's not fair.

It's true! Look at Tom Jones. Most fans of old stars are as wrinkly as the star themselves.

Tober: Tom Jones is Welsh. He doesn't count.



She won the SimFest too.



Kieran: Hey there lovebug.

Laurel: *internally* I'm so tired. Who knew watersliding all day was so much work? *to Kieran* Hey there to you too sweetums.

Lovebug. Sweetums. Eurgh.

Kieran: I've got something for you.

Laurel: Is it another waterslide? Please say it's another waterslide!

Kieran: Umm, what?

Laurel: Sorry.



Kieran: It won't open, hang on.

Laurel: Oh. It's not a waterslide then.



Kieran: Love of my life, light of my heart, etc, will you marry me?

Laurel: Oh my Plumbob it's even better than a waterslide!





We move her in. Mostly so I can choose her wedding dress.



Kris: whisper whisper...Agent Mr Highly Desirable...mutter mutter...Sam and his nectar...mumble mumble...need to wait for three more...



Kris: I know you're there, Watcher.

I know I'm here too. What're you up to anyway?

Tober: Nothing.

You said that far too quickly for it to really be nothing.



Kris: We're watching the stars. Reminiscing. My second son gets married tomorrow and I want to know all of the plans.



Tober: I wish he could have stayed.

Me too. Even if you two are keeping something from me.



The wedding day dawns and the event starts on time, which is a rarity in my games.



The groom is so nervous he falls over.



Kieran: Sorry.



But all in all the wedding goes perfectly.

Kieran: I love you.

Laurel: Will you wear your old hat later?



Until Violet Royal dies of thirst, that is.



Kieran: Ladies and gentlemen, may I please have your attention for the speeches and cake cutting!

Laurel: Maybe we need to delay this.

Kieran: They'll be over in a second, don't worry my sugarleaf.

Laurel: No, look over there.



Franco Wolff-Cruz: Nooooooooo!

Vampire death two.



Grim: Eeeexxellent. I'm just in time for the cake.

I'm sure that was their primary consideration when they died.





And here we have the first two vampires ever to learn from others' mistakes.

Next Time: Sparkles and explosions.

[Anna33]

Wow, two Vampire deaths in one wedding!? You'd thinks there'd be a patch to prevent this by now, the amount of vampires that have died when sims are having a party. But Congratulations to Kieran and Laurel.

[Snufflesxx]

Two?!
That like... woah
And Laurel is very beautiful

[SimBlip]

Dear Tober... such a sweet moment with Kris. (Yes, I saw her hand straying, but won't comment on this.)
OMG! Can it be true? Is Kieran a little clumsy at times?
Lovely bride! So pleased he found the love of his life!
Two vamps dying was a (minor) setback. I hope it did not spoil the fun.

[Wiry]

Agent Mr. Highly Desirable. Hmm, I wonder who that could be?  Possibly the most desirable Dynasty spouse in Sunset Valley?

Of course,  I kid. Those vampires are evolving! Help! They will overtake the cities faster now!

[Silverbella]

Awww congratulations, I'm so happy for Kieran!   And finally some intelligent vampires!

[Louise56]

Two vampires dying? It looks like the game know we get frustrated with all the vamp lol
Congrats to te happy couple.

[donatello]

Kieran got married first? Is that a prank he pulled? Lol... Would make sense with the vamp thing... Two (three?) pranks in one good show! Mr bookworm used to be the ladies' man... Despite doing nothing to encourage it.

[ArianaJade]

Sorry for the lack of updates, everyone. I had a pretty hectic week or so with work and some internet trouble, but the CrumpleSteels will be back on your computer screens more regularly soon. I've got an update for you today too, yaaayy!

The vamps amused me, it's almost as if it takes them being shown anything twice to learn! And Wiry, you may be onto something there.

The Long Awaited Next Chapter



Daniel goes on a three-day trip to China, to complete an opportunity and to do a bit more writing. Seriously, I hate writing as a supermax.

Daniel: The sky's getting really dark all of a sudden...

... ... Noooooooo!!!!



Having never had a meteor before, I've now had two in the same file. I think they call it Murphy's Law.



Luckily Daniel's far enough away by the time it actually hits. It's always the heirs as well. First Tober, now Daniel.



Chinese Dude: Well, that's my chances of that promotion today gone, then.



Whaaat you dooooiiinnggg?

Daniel: Working.

You're so not.



You're so staring at the woman opposite you in her underwear.

Daniel: Am so not. And besides, you can't see anything, she's covered in soot.

What I want to know is how her glasses are intact.



Laurel and Kieran spend their first married morning eating their wedding cake for breakfast. Classy.



Kieran: So, you wanna go play catch?

Laurel: Or we could go upstairs.



Laurel: Did you wet yourself in the bathroom?

Kieran: No. Definitely not. You were in the way of the loo. You're hallucinating. Sleepwalking.



A new CrumpleSteel is on the way!



As one is leaving this world.



Grim: Ah, October CrumpleSteel. Are you ready then?

Tober: You're late.

Grim: I'm going to take that as a yes. It's not easy this reaping stuff. Sometimes grieving families hold you up for HOURS.

Daniel: Mum! Mum! Don't go, please!

Tober: It's time, and your dad's waiting, and I've got a lot to be getting on with. You'll all be fine. Just don't forget not to overload the dishwasher. Remember what happened last time you did that!



Sophie: Yay! Birthday!

Inappropriate times to age up, Exhibit A.



Caitlyn: Wooo!

Exhibit B.



Caitlyn: Not this hairstyle again.

Daniel: Mum just died, and you're thinking about that?



So as the Earth rises into the sky, Tober crosses to the other side. RIP Tober. We'll all miss you.

[Wiry]

Tooober! No!

I forget, is Daniel married?

[Silverbella]

RIP Tober *sniff*   I absolutely loved her parting words, ever the wise and battle-worn mom.

[saltpastillen]

Oh Tober, I hope you're happy on the other side.
