Love Is In The AirJustin: I have a Young Again potion in my inventory. Why can't I use it?
Because.
Justin: That's an argument you use on small children.
And apparently on you.
Iris: I still think you're hot.
Alys has been dead two days.
Iris: Two days is like nearly a lifetime.
Justin: Not complaining.
Nathaniel: Erm. Umm. Do you like comic books?
Pansy Prudence (grats to all those who guessed Pansy as Nate's girlfriend): Why are we talking about comic books and not on a date?
Nathaniel: You got old.
Pansy: *narrows eyes*
Nathaniel: I mean, you grew up and I'm still a teenager.
Pansy: I thought for a moment you'd said I was old.
Nathaniel: Never. Why would I say such a thing as that?
Phoenix Prudence has also found love, with someone who's name I unfortunately can't remember. Cute though.
Justin: I still can't see why I can't use that Young Again potion.
Because of the age difference, Pansy and Nate have to come up with non-romantic things to do. So in the manner of sims, they whack each other with pillows.
Nathaniel: Ready...
Pansy: ...set...
Both: Go!
If they enjoy it...
Laura: Come on, come on... A rocket! Yes! Take that Donkey Kong!
Iris retires, because everyone wants to see more of her now she's 80 days old.
Nathaniel: I don't.
Laura: As long as she's not in her swimsuit at 10am, indoors.
Justin: I think I prefer her in her swimsuit.
Nathaniel: Ew. Parent's shouldn't be allowed to flirt.
Laura... is still playing video games.
Laura: I'm allowed. Not my fault you won't let me complete my LTW before I become a YA. Or I'd be doing that.
It's like a Nerd invasion. Everyone's a high level Nerd and plays a lot of games.
Iris: Fell off. Oops.
Even if not all of them are very good.
She's finally not playing games!
Laura: And unavailable for comment. Please try again later.
Iris: Okay!
Justin finally maxes charisma. Belatedly I realise he probably won't be around at moving time and so that's pretty much useless to the dynasty. But he had a wish for it.
Laura's planning to take on the cooking, and is learning some recipes for no other reason than I like having options for my simmies to eat.
Laura: I don't really understand why Fish and Chips needs a recipe, though.
For the first time ever in my sims playing time, I've managed to get the entire family at the table at once to eat. Well, technically Laura's finished, but I'm saying it counts. They almost look normal.
I'm just including this shot as an overview of the upstairs of the house, which I didn't do anything much to except bedroom recolours. It's also clearly bath hour.
And then to round off what was a very disjointed update, the kids age up to Young Adult. Time for the requirements to get more intense!
Everyone: Happy birthday!
Kenyon: Where? What birthday?
Laura: Mirror. Dresser. Now.
Nathaniel: I don't know what my mum's doing and I don't think I want to. But how did she get a sword?
Jenni Jones-Brown: Not a bad party, but I wish they'd tidy up. Maybe I'll make them move into my house when Kenyon marries the girl.
Lang Gwydd: Very interesting thought, that.
Jenni: You're not listening.
YA Laura, ready to make friends and just possibly children.
YA Nathaniel, ready and bearded up.
