Well,
hello, young lady! Welcome to Twinbrook! *takes a bow*
Yeah, hi.
You don’t remember me, do you? I admit it’s been a while…
Why, yes,
your face seems oddly familiar to my frozen brain. May it be you have visited
with us before?
Kind of
regularly. I just haven’t been around for a couple of weeks now. Last time I
talked to you and the family was January 1st.
That is a
rather long period of time, indeed. What has prevented you from coming back,
young lady?
You know,
life stuff. But here I am. Let’s walk inside and see what my Sims are up to!
May I be
excused? The warmness of closed rooms has a disastrous effect on my skin.
Sure, that’s
fine. Nice talking to you.
Farewell!
Well, it
seems like Willow has accepted the fact that her parents want a fourth child.
I, however, still have trouble dealing. Three kids are already a lot to handle,
even though one of them is a child already. And both of my grown-ups are still
far from reaching their LTW! How are we going to get through with that?
*whispering
in Willow’s ear* Yes, honey, you will get the new iPhone 5s if you stop being
mad with your mother.
Okay then.
And I want lots of games on it, not all of them being available for free
download. You have to get them for me, I’m not officially contractually
capable.
Of course I
will, my sweet little darling. Your happiness is all that matters to me.
I guess I
will stop being a pain in the ass then. But only if you get me the iPhone by
next week!
Ladies and
Gentlemen, I proudly present: blackmailing for intermediate learners. Please
find the according bibliography below. Those kids are going to be a handful, I’m
telling you.
But they’re
also freaking adorable. Okay, I’m fine with having a fourth child. More
cuteness! Until that child is born, somebody should add a roof to Xander’s
room, though. Snow inside the house is not desirable.
Before the
family enlarged for the fourth, and hopefully last, time, it was Ivy’s birthday!
She gracefully aged up in the backyard, wearing appropriate clothes for the
weather, of course. What else.
This is the
first time I’ve seen a sim actually aging on his birthday from YA to Adult. She
looks like she’s sixty.
Also, being
magnificently older than two sim-hours ago, she seemed to have lost her bladder
control. Great. -5 I was so proud of you in the beginning.
Okay, I did
not just see this. Gross! Willow, please put some more clothes on and play
somewhere else. Please!
What do I
get if I do what you tell me to?
What? You
can’t blackmail me! This works with your father, but not with me.
Fine, I will
continue playing with my imaginary friend until we have the best relationship,
and then I will ask you to turn him real. Every. Single. Day.
No, please
don’t! How about an iPad? I hear they’re awesome.
Sounds
legit. *puts doll away*
Phew.
With their
kids acting surprisingly mature already, Alfie and Ivy decided to go for that
fourth child right now. Everybody was getting older, and they wanted to have
some time before they picked the next heir.
Wait, what?
I have to do that? Why can’t you do that? I don’t want to decide between my
children, my lovely children!
That’s up
to you, sorry.
Okay,
Xander.
Oo You
might want to see your kids age up first. At the end of this chapter, Willow
might be a teen and Xander a child. Oh, and Dawn is going to age up into a
toddler soon.
Spoiler!
Yeah, because
life’s unpredictable that way.
See,
already happening. Birthday time! And ignore the puddle right next to Dawn,
that’s the toddler’s toilet being flooded, since nobody bothers to actually
empty it every now and then.
Cutie! I
already told you her traits, she loves the heat and is a loner. The dress is
appropriate, isn’t it?
Food! I
like food!
I just
checked, she’s NOT excitable. Even though it looks like that.
Hey Dawn!
Beware of the tickle monster! *tickles* I like this one. I want her to be heir.
Again, you
don’t have to decide right now! Please wait some more. You don’t even know the
gender of your fourth child yet.
Fourth
child? What?
Yeah, Ivy’s
pregnant, by the way. Congratulations. :)
To
celebrate, the family took a stroll to the park. It was winter festival, and
they had heard of so many fun things to do! Building a snowman, snowball
fights, playing in an igloo – and that was just the start.
Yep,
related. Definitely.
Alfie found
something to criticize. I’m very amused. What I’m not amused about is that he
left Xander on the floor, with snow up to his chin! He’s gonna get a cold!
*atchoo* Great, now I have caught it. Thanks.
Graceful
Ivy is ice skating.
And when
Alfie joins her, even more fun is had by all. Especially by me. Bwahahahaha.
ALFIE! IVY!
Get your butts over here right now and lift your toddlers from the ground,
right now!
Thankfully,
they did. And then they drove home very quickly to celebrate Xander’s birthday
into childhood! If this had happened one day earlier, he could have defended
himself against the snow much better. Oh well, too late now.
No idea who
that girl is, but her noise maker is really loud. *covers ears* Could you go
backwards, at least one giant step? But don’t trip over Dawn, she’s on the
floor right behind you.
...a
little later. oh, crap, I just remembered - she's a babysitter the game
called, since Alfie was unable to take both toddlers home at once.
Damn. -5
Oooooh, he’s
so cute. He looks like he is going to lucky a lot, right?
I want him
to be heir!
Shut up, dammit.
Shut up, dammit.
