3.8- The Perfect Potato Day

Heeeeelloooo there! It’s been a while since I wrote anything, I have many chapters to go through -about 200 screenshots-. Okay, maybe that’s only three chapters, maximum, BUT they’re full of birthdays.

So without further precaution, let’s join Damien into his demonic ritual.
screenshot-183
Damien: Rise, champion, this is my flesh offering to you!

Daenerys, on the other side, settles for waffles over questionable practices.
screenshot-184
Daenerys: Demons wouldn’t be of much use here anyway, dragons on the other hand…

Unsupervised teens is a bad idea and leaves Cole with an awkward smile.
screenshot-185
That is also due to being the only one invited to a costume party at Jamie Jolina’s place.

At least he’s not completely alone.
screenshot-186
There’s hot-dog Conor Frio, Jamie’s boyfriend.

Jamie’s idea of a party was to stand in the corner of her bedroom, so Cole went to chat with her.
screenshot-187
Cole: Xander like had a kid with Samali.

Cole does not understand why Jamie is hurt by Xander’s unfaithfulness.
screenshot-188
Cole does not understand because Jamie is doing to same thing to poor Conor.

Cole is confused because it shouldn’t be a big deal since only the legacy family is confined to monogamy.
screenshot-189
Or maybe Cole just lacks tact.

So he gives her a consoling hug to try to make her feel better.
screenshot-190
Keep that hand high, harpy old brat!

Party was boring, so Cole came back to good old boring house instead.
screenshot-192
Cole: Wow, they broke the like TV…

Usual screenshot incase he gets electrocuted and dies…
screenshot-193
Cole mastered the Handiness skill, so it didn’t happen.

The TV is repaired, Cole instantly rolls a wish to watch it.
screenshot-194
Fine, but is has to be the cooking channel. This Torch-holder has many maxed skills, but his cooking has to be the lowest of all THs.

His cooking does not match his gardening.
screenshot-195
His gardening of potatoes anyway.

Fixing the TV stirred his Handiness vibe (he’s not handy, just maxed it), and he goes on  spree of wanting to upgrade stuff.
screenshot-197
Handiness lvl 10 perk = Peeking inside appliances to understand them fully.

As a slob, Daisha doesn’t shower often.
screenshot-191
Hot tub is the way to stay fresh without effort.

At midnight, Daryl has a revelation.
screenshot-198
Daryl: I gotta vroom-vroom.

So Cole sets out to teach him.
screenshot-199
No wonder why it’s taking him so long…

Cole: That’s like not what I had in mind.
screenshot-201
Sorry, Daryl is special. He’s stupid.

He’s also an alien.
screenshot-203
So he gets to be weird.

Cole is perfectly human, but he insists on merging with anything he upgrades.
screenshot-202
Nevermind the floating plant.

It’s just Bellatrix stalking her son. I swear she’s always out.
screenshot-204
Cole: Ew Mom, put a life on!

Bellatrix: You didn’t say like, I like you. 😀

Checking on the kids, Damien expresses his art.
screenshot-200
Very dark, deep.

Duncan is working out -as usual- in his formalwear. That’s one way to make it used to your body.
screenshot-205
Drake is wandering around, most likely to the bathroom from the way he’s heading.

Bellatrix…What the?
screenshot-206
Bellatrix: Eat me! OoohOhohOHOohooOoOoo Eat me!

Dalyra is angstily (is that a word?) playing guitar.
screenshot-207
She may or may not have a rockstar profile.

Surely she has the coolest audience.
screenshot-208
Calypso: That’s the date, Barbossa? Neat.

Drake puffs his chest at his grandma. Daenerys is waiting in line.
screenshot-209
Bellatrix: At ease, soldier.

Damien’s idea of a barbecue is rather…cold.
screenshot-210
Damien: It’s always cold in Hell.

Isn’t Hell burning hot?
screenshot-209-2
Woo, Bobbi made it to L5 of the music career!

The aliens keep having a keen interest in anyone that lives on this lot.
screenshot-211
He kind of has family up there at least.

Distantly somehow related, they still study the Dean gene, their prime interest.
screenshot-212
Drake: I hate everything.

Daryl is STILL learning how to drive.
screenshot-213
Almost…there…

SUCCESS!
screenshot-214
No more teen training, Cole is the most dedicated couch-potato ever.

To celebrate, he gets himself his outside bench.
screenshot-215
He can now freely sit outside in the cold, his childhood dream.

With the company of his very temperature-insensitive daughter.
screenshot-216
Cole: This dream come true is, like, a unicorn.

But it wouldn’t be a perfect day without his lover.
screenshot-217
They watch the sunset together.

But the sun cant be seen because too much fog.
screenshot-218
So kissing is going to make it a day. Aaaaw.

Bellatrix finds her good old bed. GET IN YOUR GRAVE!
screenshot-220
That reminds me how much I love this simple bedroom. Too bad it will soon become the next heir’s room.

Using his hunting skills, Barbossa spots a turtle in the middle of nowhere.
screenshot-221
Stalking it in the deep snow, will he catch it?

He did!
screenshot-222
He’s super proud of it too, so cute. ❤

IN DA TANK!
screenshot-225
She is named Athena. Cole no longer needs a biased jury, but who knows what her destiny might be.

The Moonwisps get their first teleporter.
screenshot-223
The entrance also gets the little money the family had into looking nicer because needed to for the picture.

New piece of electronics = upgrade.
screenshot-228
With it, Cole gets his wish to upgrade ten objects.

Bobbi, diva as ever, calls he daughter a scraggly ugly rat.
screenshot-229
Daenerys: But Mom? I might be your clone…

Dalyra isn’t her mom’s clone (though perhaps her grandma’s or her dad’s) and devilishly enjoys the scene.
screenshot-230
Bobbi: Right um, sorry Desirée.

Daenerys: Mom!

Cole likes his kids, even those who like nothing.
screenshot-231
Drake started to build an igloo and Cole joined him.

Prime father-son time.
screenshot-232
It even makes Drake smile.

Drake: N-no! I just…this brick fits, is all!

Daenerys’ turn to get abducted.
screenshot-233
They truly want to meet all of Dean’s lineage.

Daenerys has to be the only one so far who doesn’t seem traumatized or disgusted by the experience.
screenshot-234
Daenerys: What’s in front of me is far more disturbing.

In front of you…
screenshot-235
No worries, it’s not Cole and Drake.

Cassandra took until now to get her first ever romantic interest.
screenshot-235-2
Of course she chose the greatest scrub alive.

I wish the bus would show everyone that’s on there.
screenshot-236
Drake: Still raising your arm to shield yourself from demons?

It appears the school problem is only partly fixed.
screenshot-237
School number one only has the Moonwisps.

The other one has everyone else.
screenshot-238
THAT IS NOT HOW THINGS SHOULD BE!

So it turns out I had not properly assigned the ages to each school.
screenshot-239
Those Barbara genes though.

The backyard garden is the new hotspot.
screenshot-240
Dalyra: School kinda sucks without a teacher.

Dante tried to be nice and made waffles.
screenshot-242
Daisha: Bro, they’re burnt.

Daryl really is stupid, because he still uses his bed despite being an alien.
screenshot-243
Daenerys: Jeez, wtf is that thing?

Truly the highlight of the lot.
screenshot-245
At least it gets the boys to get better grades (especially Daryl).

Daisha gets to do whatever she pleases.
screenshot-246
Because Daisha has an A.

Drake ain’t so bad either with his B.
screenshot-249
Maybe finding his foot will get him an A? (Gosh I love when he smiles)

Okay Daryl you might be stupid but you still do some pretty odd stuff sometimes.
screenshot-250
Like sitting on HAUNTED CHAIRS like there’s nothing to it.

Cole has been listening to Guitar tabcasts just so he could learn the skill.
screenshot-251
Just so he could teach some of it to Bobbi and help her in her career. ISBIs and how to get around stuff.

It will never get around occasionnal blank stares.
screenshot-252
Duncan: Shh, reading tips on how you can recycle your ear wax.

Damien plays chess against a very harsh opponent it looks like.
screenshot-253
Damien: You sure you’re not cheating, God?

Cole and Bobbi have serious conversations about their blond son’s hobbies.
screenshot-254
Cole: He’s like, using his ear wax as lip balm now…This environment website is bad for him, we have to put some parentol control on that thing.

It’s okay Daisha, nobody saw it.
screenshot-255
You can still pretend you have no flaws.

Popup lets me know Jerald is now a young adult.
screenshot-256
Not bad but better as a teen.

That’s one of his brothers, Cliff, I think.
screenshot-257
Still a teenager and I think close to face one.

Their mother Vicki.
screenshot-258
Everything alright in there, Vicki?

Samali, stop being a creep!
screenshot-258-2
There is more men out there than Cole or Xander! Come on!

You can at least see him in this party.
screenshot-259
Except Samali didn’t show up. But hi Jenn!

Jerald is here, trying to impress Dalyra with his fancy lobster, hoping he’ll see her with just her hoodie on one day.
screenshot-260
It’s FINALLY her birthday, feels like she was a teen forever.

Sparkle-derp!
screenshot-261
Dalyra: Aaaa-

Dalyra: —TCHAAAA!
screenshot-262
Right on the cake! Nice.

Dalyra is now a young adult, and she rolls Mean Spirited.
screenshot-263
In the end, she’s a Neurotic, Virtuoso, Angler, Excitable and Mean Spirited Sim. Sounds like naming her after the word “delirium” wasn’t so wrong. So she gets somewhat of an evil jester look.

She is also -great revelation- NOT A CLONE!
screenshot-264
She has Bellatrix’s eye color and mouth, Cole’s nose and Bobbi’s eye shape.

Therefore she gets to be an interesting option for heirship, and she also gets Cassandra’s judgement.
screenshot-265
Dalyra: That’s right suckers, I’m awesome.

While Dalyra lurks in her corner with cake, Cole tries to make friends with simselves.
screenshot-266
Except only Ty is available so they dance like mad teens on the dance floor. That is totally what two Loners would do together in real life, I’m sure…

Until the others finally decide to interfere.
screenshot-267
Jenn and Cole heartfart, like everytime they see one another.

However it is soon time to send everyone home and for the rest of the kids to go to bed.
screenshot-268
Daryl: Ew, Da, put some pants on!

On this note, I leave thee. Tell me, has your favorites changed? Can you not wait for the others to age and have a hard time choosing? Do you believe the sacred potato lies somewhere out there?

    The sacred potato is definitely out there somewhere…but Cole won’t find it sitting on his outdoor bench. Dalyra is so gorgeous! I’m not sure that I have a favourite, but any non-clones are definitely in the running in my book!
