Artie's Lunar Lunacy

[Audren]

Airica: "Yes but it's only my third day in school.  I'd like to do it without Snyder watching our butts for the rest of our time here."

Is this a Buffy reference I see? 

[Wiry]

Oh my goodness. Artie's pretty smoooth with the ladies, and seeming more and more like I'm controlling him 

Minus the prattling about genetics of course.

[SimBlip]

I liked Airica's conversation with Indigo. It must be awesome for a teen to have an Unicorn guiding you.
Artie is coming more and more to the fore these days...

[NicoleML]

Airica is my favorite Grim so far. Must be the purple hair, red skin combo. Also love Artie's pick up technique - "drink this and come to me tent", real smooth!

[donatello]

If they're that easy, their heart's probably not into it anyway. Guess that's what you call playing the short game. Anyway... I like the horse. Reminds me of a magic horse from when I was a child... Hey, maybe I should write a story about the friendly little absent-minded witch, her cat, her magic horse and her friends... And the "yellow witch" and her two push-arounds, the Poison Apple twins.

[Ricalynn]

Crocker family mourns.
Artie: "Hey Bob."
Bob: "Sup man? How's it going?"
Artie: "Oh you know.  Here to see the kids."
Eileen: "You know him?! Where have you been? I've been calling for hours!"
Artie: "I was hanging out with some of the people from work.  Trying to wrap up old business."
Eileen: "Hmph."
Bob: "That's my cue to leave.  Give my love to Rica."
Artie: "Sure sure.  Stop by anytime, just do it for someone else ok?"
Bob: -laughs- "No promises.  Keep your nose clean."

Airica: "What are you doing now, you infuriating man?!"
Artie: -on the phone- "That's totally something we should do.  I may be an old relic but I think you may find I can surprise you still."
Airica: "Gah!  Stop talking to these women and get your head back in the game man!"


Francisco: "I think he's ignoring you."
Airica: "Well hello witchybutt, aren't you just the sunshine on my rainy day?"
Francisco: "Everything going ok?"
Airica: "Much better now that you're here.  Want to help me plan something?"
Francisco: "What do you have in mind?
Airica: "A little payback."


Francisco: "Whoo.  I love that you wear dresses going down the slide."
Airica: "Did you look up my skirt?"
Francisco: "What do you mean?"
Airica: "Yeah from now on when it's my turn you close your eyes."
Francisco: "I'd say you're no fun but I already know your plan."


Artie: "Now carry the three.."
Kylie Crocker: "Wow.  that makes so much more sense now.  Thanks Dad.  You staying tonight?"
Artie: "I can't.  I'm apparently needed at home tonight for our first full moon."
Kylie: "What about us?"
Artie: "Well I scattered my scent all over the place so maybe they'll take that as a means to come to my house instead.  Just stay inside ok?"
Kylie: "Yes sir."


Airica: "Oh man.  Not only are you a zombie but you're wearing Katy Perry gear with those shoes.  How could you?" -throws elixir-
Zombie: "UGh..." -passes out-


Airica: "Tenisha! You came!"
Tenisha: "I have to admit I was wondering why I was invited."
Airica: "Just throwing a little get together for Artie that's all.  Figured you'd want to be here."
Tenisha: "Thank you.  That's really sweet."
Airica: "No problem."


Tenisha: "I have to say.  The full Moon certain causes quite the glow."
Artie: "Yes yes it does." -shifts nervously in his chair-


Airica: "I know it was wrong but I just had to invite them all over."
Aker: "You're something else, you know that."
Airica: "Yep.  Not to mention, I'm also very funny.  I can still see him squirming."
Aker: "Yeah I'm waiting for one of them to ask who got the other ones pregnant."
Airica: "Me too.  Maybe he should have been more careful."


Amon: "Oh hey Vera.  I was just coming to check on.. Oh you had the baby already?"
Vera: -breathless- "One moment."


Vera: "And I shall call you Whitney.."
Amon: "What's the other one's name?"
Vera: "He's Desmond and the one inside is Kim."
Amon: "Wait.. the one inside? Can I go see her?"
Vera: "Sure go right ahead."


On the other side of town...
Artie: "You're in labor! The baby is coming!  The baby is coming!"
Airica: "Then go to the hospital!"
Artie: "That voice.. always so familiar and yet so grating."


Amon: "Well hello Little Kim.  Here let me give you a snuggle before I go home.  I see that you are here now and there is nothing we can do for you except help you with school later on."
Vera: "What's that?"
Amon: "I was telling Kim that one of us would come check on her and her brothers later on.  Make sure you are doing ok."
Vera: "My parents still live here, vampires and all so it should be ok."
Amon: "Alright then.  I'll just leave you to rest while you can then."
Vera: "Thank you."


Welcome Little Danny Gothier - red and a werewolf!
Artie: -inner thought- "Only one?  Hmm.. going to have to try harder." -clears his throat- "Seeing you holding my son reminds me..."


Amon: "That can't be good for the babies.."
Tenisha: "Where'd Artie go?"
Amon: "Marisol went into labor and he took her to make sure she got there ok."
Tenisha: "He's so sweet isn't he?"
Amon: "Sure."


Tenisha: "Oh.. ow.. I think I started something with that move."
Amon: -grumbles- "And Artie isn't back yet.." -speaks louder- "Let's get you to the hospital then."


Welcome Jamey Littlejohn..


..and his twin Morris!

Within 24 hours, Artie had triplets, twins and a single birth.  This brings his number of children up to 12. 


Artie: "Hey little man.  I want you to know that I know what's hiding in this blanket.  And it's sweet and round and oh so yummy.  But I already got three pieces today and if I want to keep my figure, I should probably not get another one.  So consider yourself lucky.  Daddy isn't going to take your lollipop.. today." -grins-


Meanwhile, Apollo visits Eileen to find out two of his aunts are now teens.  Lacy & Kylie aged up while I was blinking.  Why was it Apollo and not Artie, you ask?



Artie was a little busy with his new friend Rachel.

[sdhoey]

OMG  RICA, are they ALL repopulating Lunar Lakes with Grims?

[Ricalynn]

No just Artie   Amon was helping out.  He always seemed to be at the right place at the right time.

[sdhoey]

No just Artie   Amon was helping out.  He always seemed to be at the right place at the right time.

Ok the pic above Artie in the bed threw me, When did Artie get that hair? LOL

[Ricalynn]

For some reason his work outfit keeps changing into something horrible.  I've had to fix it a few times.

[sdhoey]

I gotcha now. I've had that problem with Colt. It gives him hair with his work outfits..

[Ausette]

Oh, there's the baby boom I've been hearing about! Tenisha's dance moves are genuinely horrifying. 

[Ricalynn]

Airica: "So wait.. you're the kid that was born how long ago?"
Darron: "I don't know why?"
Airica: "Because I think you've caught up to me in half the time."
Darron: "Umm."
Airica: "Don't worry.  I'm sure it's not a serious condition.  So hi.  I'm Airica.  I am the 7th genartion in the family line going down from your father."
Darron: "Cool and you're evil like me.  Hey let's be besties?"
Airica: "Of course!  Hey! Is that a wand in your pocket?"
Darron: "Why yes it is."
Airica: "Awesome.. now make me an apple and don't try to give me one of those shiny pink ones either."


Robber: "The watcher wasn't even paying attention.  All the other ones were asleep in the tent.  I so could have done it if it hadn't been for the alarm near the front door.  Who puts an alarm on the outside I mean c'mon.  Give us a break."


Reka: "You look positively please about something."
Airica: "I don't know what you're talking about."


Psst.  Check out Angus' chest hair.  How did it get his chest and not his beard?


Airica: "Wally you made it!"
Wallace: "Why do you call me that?"
Airica: "Because it makes your eye twitch which is visually fascinating considering the exact shade of your eyes."


Wallace: "So you are evil.  I wondered about that."
Airica: "I'm a Grim of course I'm evil.  Nice to know that you are too.  We can do things together that normally would be questionable for my peace of mind but doing it with someone else seems to make it better."
Wallace: "I get that."
Airica: "Hey did you want to sleep over? I've got to finish this book and hit the tent but we can chat in the morning, right?"
Wallace: "That sounds awesome.  I heard you guys got a sauna."
Airica: "Yep.  you'll find it in the back near the wedding arch that will never get used again."
Wallace: "Cool.  Sleep well."
Airica: "But hey.. no mud baths or I'll kill you and your whole family. Then I'll use a time machine to kill your ancestors too."
Wallace: "Whoa.. ok Got it."


Airica: "So I was wondering, since you were smart enough to realize I was serious about the mud bath and didn't fail my challenge, Wanna be BFFs?"
Wallace: "Yes!  Did I ever tell you you're kind of cute when you threaten people?"
Airica: -puts her hand on his face- "That's your one pass as a BFF.  No flirting unless I do it first. Your eyes are awesome but I'm not sure how I feel about the hair yet."


Artie: "You sure you should be walking all over Lunar Lakes in those heels while pregnant?"
Rachel: "Paparazzi don't get time off for maternity leave."
Artie: "That's too bad.  At least you have your friends to help with the kids and I promise to stop by to get ca-- closer to them."
Rachel: "What makes you so certain it's more than one?"
Artie: "Practice and that red drink I gave you right before we .. you know."
Rachel: "Oh."
Artie: "yeah.  Hey want to come to my house and listen to some kids' music?"
Rachel: "I think I'll pass.."
Artie: -gets call to go to hospital- "Oh hey.  I'll call you later ok?"  -runs off to bring home Marisol's new triplets whose names I never wrote down.  Whoops.-
Rica's My Page: "Ricalynn completed the Exercise in Fertility achievement and earned a badge"


Francisco: "You know I love hanging out with you, sweetcheeks, but I need to go home early tonight."
Airica: "Aww really? But tomorrow is my birthday.  Still come over for cake?"
Francisco: "Wouldn't miss it for the world, babe." -kisses her cheek-  "You get some sleep and keep that pretty little nose of yours out of the books for once."
Airica: "I like reading!"
Francisco: "Oh I know."


Airica: "I did it.  I survived another round of high school.  And would you look at that hunk of fine witch butt behind me all aged up as a surprise. "
Reka: "Your birthday again?"
Airica: "Oh it's you."
Reka: "Didn't we just do this?"
Airica: "Yes.  Why are you still hanging around?"
Reka: "That's for me to know and you to find out."
Airica: "Yeah well you are really bad at the watcher thing."


Airica: "Whoa.. I'll never get used to that feeling of sparkles."
Reka: "Just wait til they come in and wrinkle that pretty face of yours.. I see your moms only has 3 days left.  Hey I know.  She wants a jelly bean bush for your birthday right?"
Airica: "Hey no! We can't intentionally kill!"
Reka: "Is it really intentionally killing if she just can't stop eating the sweet little treats?"
Airica: "Let's just get the wardrobe struggle over with already ok?"
Reka: "My only requirement is that you remember to keep my hair color.. Oh and a little something special of course.."



Airica: "Claws?!  Why do I have claws?!"
Reka: "Have fun typing in those..." -closes communication-
Airica: "Meh.  I've had longer acrylics than this."


Airica: "Hey.. Well aren't you all steampunk in your big boy britches, witchybutt?"
Francisco: "I kind of like it.  Shows off my chest and the guns." -flexes-
Airica: "You've been hanging out at my house too long." -laughing-
Francisco: "You know.. we're both older now.." -wiggles eyebrows-
Artie: "ERICA LYNN .. painting & sculpture time now!"
Airica: "Oy... you heard red & angry.  Maybe in a little bit?"
Francisco: "What's up with him now?"
Airica: "He has 17 kids and sometimes he can't find them in town to steal their candy."
Francisco: "Aww poor baby."
Airica: "I know right."

[samoht04]

It's a hard life when there is no candy to steal from your many, many children.  Great updates!

[ladyaya]

Oh, I love it, I love it, I love it~
The Grims always make me laugh xD
Oh, what shirt is....I think it's Lacie wearing as a teen?
Too bad Artie won't be getting candy anytime soon if his kids keep growing up like that. xD
