The CrumpleSteel DecaDynasty: COMPLETED 11/11/13

[Snufflesxx]

That's exactly what happened to Kieran. He moved out with his wife and a baby son, his wife disappeared completely and Kieran and James (son) were in the family tree but unable to be invited to parties. Until randomly one day Kieran became able to be invited to parties. It's actually somewhat ironic, all of my sims in this file are named after people I know and the RL Kieran is prone to disappearing.

Maybe it's a new glitch. Still, I hope your ghosts turn up again like Kieran did.

Poor Kieran seems to be down on his luck... I've got it! It's the hat! Now that he's got no awesome hat, everything is falling apart! Or it could be a glitch... but my idea is more likely

[RaiaDraconis]

Oh dear.

Poor Kieran! That's just terrible...

At least the nooboos are adorable. Wow, do Gabrielle and Daniel have a houseful! I'll bet Daniel is wanting another boy to help even things out a bit.

Daniel: I wouldn't be so sure about 'old enough to use the toilet'.

Gabrielle: Why are you damp?

That part was just hilarious!

[Toni]

It can't be! Keiran, a zombie! He has to be cured right away!

[bubbles]

Not zombie Kieran! Of all the sims in town to choose from, Kieran had to become a zombie!

Come on, this baby has got to be Gabrielle's last. Five kids, really?

[MarianT]

Does Gabrielle have the Surrounded by Family LTW? Still, they're all so cute, I can see why you want to keep having toddlers.

Hmm... you may be onto something there...

Oh dear.

He probably does want another boy. My partner said he'd have gone to live in the garage if he lived in a house with that many girls. Maybe I should get Daniel and Albert a garage!

It can't be! Keiran, a zombie! He has to be cured right away!

I didn't even have anything to cure him with

This pregnancy is the last, don't worry. And I agree, why did all the annoying paparazzi escape zombiefication but poor Kieran didn't?!

Does Gabrielle have the Surrounded by Family LTW? Still, they're all so cute, I can see why you want to keep having toddlers.

She does. I did consider changing it but thought that'd be mean. And partly yes it's an excuse to have cute toddlers around.

[bubbles]

Of course, an exuse for toddlers. Remember, they do grow up fast (very fast in the sims).

We Haven't Had A Birthday In A While...



Iris: Daddy. DADDY. DADDDDDYYYYYY!

Daniel: What?

Iris: There are weird people in the garden.

Daniel: You mean weird people who aren't you?

Iris: Daddy, that's not funny.

Daniel: Dad jokes aren't supposed to be funny.



Daniel: Oh hi little brother. Is this some kind of convention of last night's zombies?

Kieran: Your child is loud.

Former Zombie Convention: Very loud.

Kieran: And, anyway, it's a zombie recovery programme. Zombies are victimised in this society...

Ethel: You'd scream if he called you Ethie, too.



Daniel: I'm going to go and give her back to her mother. I don't know what she wants.

Ethel: I told you what I want. Loudly.

Kieran: My big brother. All the books in the world and he still has no common sense.

Sadly it's often that way.



Kieran: Oops.

I think you just lost your moral high ground on everything.



Kieran: It's not my fault. It's a side effect of zombification. Honest.

Daniel: What is?



The boys have a game of rock, paper, scissors for old time's sake.



Iris: Mummy, it moved!

Gabrielle: That's cuz there's a baby in there.

Iris: No there's not.

Gabrielle: Oh yes there is!

Iris: It's not panto season anymore Mummy. You're silly.

Gabrielle: We don't call people silly, remember?

Iris: Daddy does. Daddy said Ethel was silly.

Gabrielle: DANIEL!



On the subject of Ethel...



Ethel: Pink?!



And then Mary, who has been neglected by this story so far.



Mary: That's okay, I know you don't mean to.



Here's Ethel after her makeover. I told you calling a child Ethel would do funny things to them. She's very prim and proper.



And Mary. Who manages to be more normal, even if she does enjoy doing her homework.

Mary: *pops lifetime wish to become a World Reknowned Surgeon*

That'll be why then.



And Albert learns his toddler skills. It's a doddle for Daniel and Gabrielle at this point, they've got the technique down.



Though I'm not sure Albert really likes being taught to potty.

Albert: Smelly.

Gabrielle: You're the smelly one, kid.



And for the first time since Iris was born, Daniel finds time to do something other than deal with babies.

[SimBlip]

Kieran doesn't look like a zombie in those pictures.
Is that because it's daytime? Are they normal during daytime? Or am I having a dizzy moment here?
I love Ethel to bits - her insisting on the proper use of her name makes me giggle every time.
I wonder why she cut her gorgeous hair off?
Great update!

[TheTripWasInfraGreen]

They change back to human at 6AM. Zombification is fortunately temporary.

I still feel so bad for Kieran, becoming the most reviled life state ever. D:

Thank you so much for clearing that up, Trip. I still feel bad too... It would have been ten times nicer, if he had become a cool vampire with a very long life ahead of him still.

[Beezy]

That hair looks excellent on Ethel. Iris must've had a paranormal encounter with Kelsey or something.
Zombie party! Wooohoooo!!! THRILLER! Ok, I'll stop. 

Looking forward to the next update! 

[Toni]

Ethel and Mary looks are very different. Can't wait to see Albert all grown up.

[bubbles]

You'd think Iris would understand that the baby is in Mummy's tummy, considering this is the third time for Iris (Twins classed as one pregnancy).

[ArianaJade]

Trip, SimBlip: Yeah, the zombies dezombify and tend to stand in your garden looking really confused until around 11am. And then disappear. I'd also rather Kieran had turned into a different life state - vamps and fairies are enabled in the file so either would have been fine with me!

Ethel has a very particular style. Not one I'd go with if I had access to all the hairstyles in the sims! Iris would probably say that the shark threat is so obvious nobody needed to tell her about it. But I do suspect Kelsey.

Ethel and Mary looks are very different. Can't wait to see Albert all grown up.

Yeah, they're very obviously different despite being twins. And have very different futures (I'm further ahead in game). I'm afraid Albert doesn't grow up for a few chapters yet though...

Sims have very limited common sense though, especially Iris. She might be hinting at something else though...
