5.9- Machinations

Last time, the kids aged to teens, the horses got their foals and I don’t think much else happened.

Ethan immediately gets started on teaching the teens to drive.

He starts with Flemeth.

The horses are staying on the main lot for as long as the foals are young.

That way, people can bottle-feed them and help the mommies get a rest. (Horses are a major pain to take care of, always in a loop for their needs, barely any downtime until you get Lifetime Rewards that help…)

Finnick has taken up the Martial Arts skill but is interrupted by Eve.

Eve: You used to be in here. Right heeeeeere! *shrieks*

Fenris and Fiora fight over the bathroom.

Fenris: Wait, what’s wrong with Mom?
Fiora: She’s been freaking out over being the one to carry us and not Dad.

And Nova is being a cute kitty.

She’s practicing her hunting skill.

Flemeth is done learning how to drive.

So it’s Fenris’s turn.

Off they go, running into the fields, singing songs and such.

Ethan: Lalala, says I.
Fenris: What?

Nova is starting to realize her adopting family is a little bit crazy on the edges.

Nova: They’re almost all aliens. They better not probe me.

When everyone is at school and working, she goes outside.

She’s on the prowl for fish.

MAIM IT!

SHRED IT TO PIECES!

She won, obviously.

Nova: Why of course. I am the hunter, everything else is prey.

Finnick is being extra nostalgic over the toy oven –that he never used.

Conquest invades human space with his ghostliness.

But of course Eclipse takes the cake, as the king of douches he is.

Really not where he belongs.

Fiora and Fenris goof around outside.

Fenris: Ba harmy putar? Glarch!
Fiora: Hahaha, good one!

Fiora autonomously feeds Ruin.

This allows Asteroid to keep grooming Comet and fulfill a wish.

Oddly enough, it’s Despair’s birthday.

Despair: Why am I aging up first? I wasn’t born first. What does life even mean anymore?

So there, he’s all grown up now.

Despair: But I’m hungry.
Comet: Now you get to feed yourself.

Quality time between the torch-holder and his wife.

Eve: Ready to watch Breaking Good?
Ethan: Sure, let me just set this podcast to learn logic at the same time.

Fiora is lazily kicking the training dummy.

Reminder: Both her and Finnick have the Disciplined trait, which is why they’re autonomously picking up the skill.

It’s Ruin’s turn to age up!

Torment: I was born first, what the heck?

Conquest came right after.

Conquest: Have I conquered your heart?

And finally Torment.

Conquest: I still prefer myself.

Fiora went home with Elliot today.

Though nobody was actually home so she just did her homework outside.

She then had a nap.

Most houses in the world are from Pralinesim on TSR.

Eventually Elvis came home but he was not amused.

Elvis: Where the hell is that bratty alien?

Some other relevant people are up to things in town.

Damian Blue is a sim created by Ms Blue on TSR.

Jenn had her first kid.

Technically a Moonwisp cousin.

Elika snatched another Blue.

We’ll see if she produces real cousins.

With about a bazillion horses on the lot, more people are lured outside.

And yes, Gan still exists outside of the rocking chair sometimes.

Finnick chooses to restore his brain power rather than sleep.

He also chooses to do it on Flemeth’s bed rather than his own.

Luckily Flemeth is busy outside and won’t need her bed anytime soon.

Ethan has been asking the kids their gender preferences in a partner. They’re all straight.

Fenris the slob taking a bath.

Fenris: Gotta get clean before going out.

That is because Ethan took them to the Fall Festival – and then wandered around gathering collectables.

So much for getting clean. At least he won the pie eating contest.

All Fiora did was nap on a bench.

And they say Fenris is the Heavy Sleeper.

Finnick quickly came home and grilled some hot dogs.

Finnick: Seriously, why bother going out to have fun when we have everything here?

Ethan’s scavenging took him to the ranch, where the garden was all ripe for the picking.

Ethan: Don’t mind if I do.

Most of what he gathered, he planted for the home garden.

Ethan: More than just potatoes. Premium granola material right here.

Ruin is NOT happy with the non-premium food the humans get.

Ruin: How dare he feed us heaven but give burnt crumbs to his kids?

Flemeth and Fenris are having a secret meeting in the garage.

Flemeth: That’s the plan then?
Fenris: Yeah, just need to get the others on board too.

Fenris tried to convince Fiora of whatever their machinations are.

Fiora: Bad timing, I really just want to pee.

And Finnick is too busy breaking board to…get on board.

Finnick: Those foam boards don’t stand a chance. Not a chance!

He earned a new belt.

His dedication is admirable for an idiot.

Sims care so much more about horses than their own kids when left on autonomous actions.

Torment: I’m not exactly impressed by those brushing techniques, lady.

However there is one thing sim and horse have in common.

They don’t get along with Gan.

Only Nova can get along with him.

Nova: I am HUNGRY. WHERE is my servant?

Eve, as per her usual habit, broke something.

For once, it wasn’t the TV, but Ethan is still the one that has to fix it.

The kids went to prom. Here are the highlights:

• Fenris had a great time and started having strong feelings for Mildred (Until now I thought that was usually a boy’s name).
• Fenris asked the most popular guy out, who walked away laughing. Fenris is straight, and just found a girlfriend. Must be drunk.
• Finnick saw someone else wearing the same tuxedo. Except he went in his outerwear…
• Finnick wanted to take out his aggression on a classmate but got his ass handed over to him. So much for all the martial arts training.
• He was challenged to a dance battle and won. The loser tried to fight him but this time Finnick showed him who’s boss.
• Fiora wanted to ask her crush out but her showed up with a date.
• She charmed a buy called Austin.
• Flemeth saw someone else wearing the same dress.
• Someone stepped on her foot so she beat them up.
• She was voted Prom Queen.

Also, Flemeth and Fenris made it to Honour Roll!

The two others have Bs.

Eve finished a painting and it was hung on the wall.

The hall is slowly becoming less boring.

Let it be known the reason she found the easel is because she broke the TV again.

At this point, Ethan has 8-9 points in handiness, if it isn’t maxed already.

After painting, Eve found the dart board.

Eve: This is as close as I get to probing.

Well she’s not very good at it.

Eve: That explains why Ethan probed my instead…

Gan literally waits for the kids to come home from school to pick at them.

Fiora: How about you fix your work outfit before you call me green?
Gan: …It’s no fun wearing my stupid hat ever since Dalyra passed…

Ethan and Eve have some fun in the shower.

Eve: WHY CAN’T I PROBE?
Ethan: That’s not how it works, love.

Finnick is still persevering.

At this rate, he’ll be a black belt before he even becomes an adult.

Wild horses are wildly swarming the lot to come drink.

All the ponds must be frozen.

That morning, Gan woke up feeling glittery for the first time in his life.

Gan: Is that a spider on the ceiling?

Most of the family flocks to the scene.

Ethan: Why does nobody get that there’s nothing to be sad about?

As Ethan watched with exasperation at his kids, Gan shook hands with Grimmy.

Gan: Welp, time to be told that’s what I get for wearing a stupid hat. Finally.

Even when the deed was done, people kept crying over it.

Ethan: You guys are wimps, I’ll go read my book where it’s quiet.

Flemeth tried to make her father understand.

Flemeth: Just because you don’t think it’s sad doesn’t mean others can’t or shouldn’t.

Ignoring her complaints, he zapped everyone out of their mourning.

Constant crying is killer on ISBIs. It’s all they do.

Then he was back to work.

Upgrading most of the plumbing so that it self-cleans and saves him time in the future.

Woops, the clothes washer broke.

Just another thing to add to his to-do list.

Ethan fixes it in typical Moonwisp fashion.

Whatever works.

He then had a chat with Flemeth over breakfast.

Ethan: I thought about what you told me yesterday. It’s garbage.

After a satisfying day of doing nothing but things that needed to be done, he napped on his bed.

That’s the life.

Poor Nova had a mishap.

She must have been reacting to dirty plates for too long.

Fiora had another kind of mishap.

Crashed right out of school.

Eve, on the other hand, met major success.


There, good job Eve, you get to retire when you hit Elderhood.

As for Eclipse, he had his kind of success when it comes to being a total dumbass.

Eclipse: Somewhere over the rainbow. And stuff. Ladies love it.

Simselves invited Ethan to a party.

This is their house. Pretty with lights.

However, nobody was home but one of the kids and a dog…

Ethan justifyingly thinks it’s a boring party.

Eventually he was let in by Ty.

Ethan: So where’s the party at?
Ty: What party?

In a corner of the house stood Damian Blue.

Samali’s boyfriend.

He didn’t resemble the TSR version for whatever reason so he was fixed a little.

Imports anyway.

Since there was nothing else to see there, the Moonwisps headed back home.

Fiora did her homework in everybody’s favorite room. Flemeth’s bedroom.

So Flemeth herself just sat in the garden, annoyed.

Flemeth: How is one supposed to sleep?

Fenris is doing his science homework.

Fenris: Why do you need to eat? I don’t see a stomach in there…

And Finnick does what he always does.

He is a green belt now.

Also, Finnick, putting on glasses just to get a nerdy look doesn’t make you nerdy.

Finnick: Got me to break those boards though.

Having a nice cleansing bath after exercise always feels good.

Finnick: Life is so full of mysteries.

Well mysteries will have to solve themselves because Finnick and his siblings have a birthday party to attend to. Their own!

Finnick: Shouldn’t we wait for Fenris?
Fiora: Meh.

The girls go regardless of their brother being late.

Fiora makes a secret wish.

Flemeth sparkles.

Ethan: Wait, my kids are going to be grown-ups?

For a guy who disregards death as something major, he sure seems to mind aging.

Ethan: Omg I’m getting old. Hahaha yay birthday!

Fenris finally makes it.

Just as Flemeth finishes sparkling.

Finnick did blow his candles eventually.

Finnick: Fenris is there, it’s time.

Flemeth first. All F kids have the same LTW. The Jockey. Got to put those horses to use.

She rolled Cat Person, to go along with Loves the Cold, Grumpy, Sailor and Hopeless Romantic.

Fenris is next despite being late. Notice how Fiora is still a teen in the background…

He got Evil, to be added to Perceptive, Slob, Heavy Sleeper and Flirty.

Fiora stopped being stuck shortly after.

She is now Artistic, Disciplined, Genius, Nurturing and now Childish.

And finally Finnick. Newly Computer Whiz, added to his  Disciplined, Loner, Eccentric and Vegetarian self.

Finnick: The Apocalypse has begun.
Eve: Toot!

Which means Ethan’s time as heir is over.

Ethan: Now what?

Now? A last town update before the end.


Of course I’d match myself with an alien…

And now, NOW it’s the end. Of the WORLD. Or you know, of this generation. Which means that the heir poll should be there soon. Watch for it when it comes, and choose your Horseman.

5.8- Men and Beasts

Hello! No, I did not lose my saves again. I played up until poll time though. I’ve got catching up to do. I also realized that I need to pick up the pace if I ever want to be done. So less pictures are taken. Don’t worry, still plenty of Nova to go around!

There is however way too much of that scumbag.

Eclipse: All right girls, who wants to have some tea tonight?

Back home, Ethan is on the phone, organizing a party for the next day.

Ethan: Should I sent my resume by mail or come in person?

Eve is communing with the mothership.

Telling them all about how much salt to put in that marinade.

Flemeth is doing her homework.

Outside the school. On the sidewalk.

Fiora stopped at the church to have a nap.

Paparazzi takes note of it all.

Fenris is also doing his homework.

He stopped at the local dog park to do so. No dogs around at the moment though.

Queen Nova is sniffing her favorite servant’s hand.

Nova: Yes, I can tell you have treats for me. Good.

Eclipse has got his groove on with the ladies.

Eclipse: I put my  best suit on for you.

There was a chime.

Comet: That was as fast as a racing horse!

He immediately chains to the next.

Asteroid is just as easy to con into the stall.

Fiora has still not made it home, stuck watching Elrath being an attention whore.

All her needs are in the red…

Gan always makes sure to remind Eve how much he cares about her.

Gan: Your mother is a llama!
Eve: Well you would know, I haven’t met her.

Though not all of it was captured, all the lady horse have had their turn with Eclipse.

Nebula: You’re the only one who got to do it before he was a ghost.

Fenris has just made it home from the dog park.

There is a boatload of toys and stuff to do at home, but staring blankly into space is always more interesting.

While the Science skill isn’t needed to progress in the Science career, Ethan keeps rolling wishes for it so there he goes.

He is never quite successful at discovering anything meaningful.

Flemeth is out late at night.

She is hoping to excavate some riches.

Done with his testing, Ethan pulls Eve out of her couch merging.

The two of them still love each other very much, despite rarely interacting together.

Not that they don’t roll wishes for one another, but Ethan has lots to take care of around the house.

Eve: Oh my, who is this handsome man?

She quickly remembered.

This animation is the cutest.

Well, Nova is cuter.

She has taken to learning how to hunt.

A unicorn has appeared in the back yard.

Funny how now that Ethan chased one all across the world, one just pops right there.

It even insists a lot on how it would like to join. Are all of them jerks?

MagicJerk: Mashing the buttons won’t make you jump higher…

Says he to a raging Gan.

Gan: Oh my god you dumb haymuncher, don’t you start with the backseat driving!

The family paparazzi thinks he can just invade and enjoy the pool.

All on him if he drowns.

Next morning it is Leisure Day. Day of the pool party.

Gan: I’ll just have mac and cheese since you always fail all food you make for humans.

The first guests have arrived.

Ethan: I mean you’re over 2 hours early but sure, hi Jenn.
Jenn: Never too early when there’s food.

Elrath showed up slightly afterwards.

Elrath: Ew, even my invisible food will be better than anything Ethan makes.

Poor guy literally fed himself since childhood and nobody trusts his cooking.

He successfully cooked the hotdogs.

He then mixed a few simple drinks.

He also changed in between. Insane sims…

The paparazzi is out of the pool and unto the island.

Very burned.

Jenn and him heartfart over one another.

Jenn: Aren’t you a hot one?
Jalapeno: Day 76. Who knew I would meet the love of my life while stranded on this island.

Samali also gets all over Gan. As usual.

Gan: I am single now…

Following the trend, Fenris chooses other foods over his dad’s cooking.

Fenris: That is way too many dirty dishes. (He’s a slob, why does he care?)

Ethan wished to have Elvis do an ink blot test.

Elvis: I see the side view of a human’s brain after you’ve probed it.

Changing his clothes once again, Ethan goes in the pool first.

Chlorine is bad for clothes, but whatever.

Fiora joins her father.

The jalapeno’s time in seclusion is over and he got a revelation about being the next prophet.

Fiora and Ethan have a breath holding contest.

It doesn’t seem fair.

Indeed not. Ethan won.

Jalapeno: It was foretold in the rings.

Then my simself broke into labor.

You wouldn’t believe it if it wasn’t for Sam and Jenn’s behaviour.

She left for the hospital.

Apparently she thinks her child is a prophet too.

The party continued as the sun lowered.

Flemeth: Mom, why is Dad so weird?
Eve: I heard it had to do with crypt fungus.

No matter the amount of fungus, she will always love his weirdness.

They ended the party with a kiss.

Next morning, Ethan tried his hand at pancakes for the family breakfast.

And he failed.

The horses still exist.

They spend their entire time taking care of their needs. It is a painful loop.

Cosmos walked all the way to the backyard.

Cosmos: I have an announcement to make.

She gave birth to this wonderful little unicorn foal.

His name is Torment.

Meanwhile Nova is drinking from the pond.

She’s so cute.

Then stalks her favourite human.

Nova: Actually, you’re in the way.

In the way of her magnificence sitting on her throne.

Nova: This kingdom needs its Queen.

Until Ethan comes and tries to pick up the clothes on the ground.

Ethan: That’s inconvenient.

She is ready to fight him to the death for it.

Nova: Don’t you dare touch these!

Ethan gave up and went to talk to Fenris instead.

Fenris: Given that cooking is science and you’re a scientist, shouldn’t you be a bit better?

It’s Nebula’s turn to trek all the way home.

In the middle of the night.

She gave birth to a ghost baby boy.

This is what he looks like without the ghost shader.

His name is Conquest.

Comet followed shortly behind.

This little boy is Despair.

And last but not least, Asteroid’s boy.

Ruin. A ghost too but his shader will be removed to differentiate him from Conquest.

Though Nova often autonomously goes to Gan for affection and social, there comes times where the old grumpy gnome is not available.

In those times, Ethan has to play with her.

Once she was all satisfied, Ethan analyzed a nearby gem.

He then picked it up of course.

In the morning, he bottle-fed Torment since Cosmos was busy sleeping.

Torment: When will I stop being shiny?
Ethan: When you grow up.

Gan went and disturbed Eve mid-painting.

Gan: If you had a brain, you’d dress better than that.
Eve: You’re one to talk…

Only reason she was painting is because she broke the television.

Maybe Ethan shouldn’t be fixing it so she stays productive…

Too late now, plus today is her birthday so she gets to do what she wants.

Not like it changes anything in an ISBI…

She looks the same and does not have a Midlife Crisis.

Fenris is more excited than the adults.

Look at this sass for a minute.

LOOK AT IT!

Fenris decided he wanted to brush Torment.

He is the only foal to have had human/alien interaction so far.

Eclipse was getting lonely on the horse lot all by himself so he teleported over. He’s also wishing to interact with his foals.

Eclipse: Alright, where are all those sons of bitches… Not that my harem are bitches though.

Fiora was reading a book in the garage and Nova kept her company.

Fiora: And then the ladybug flew over the rainbow and into the sunset. Wow, that ending is crap.

Even though Nova wasn’t listening anymore, Fiora put it upon herself to rewrite the ending.

Fiora: And then, as the ladybug was flying over the rainbow, the earth cracked and shadowy tendrils emerged from the abyss. The beast was not dead.

The beasts outside are alive…ish.

Comet is the lucky lady Eclipse has as designated mate, so he always goes to her for snuggles.

Just as Finnick was grabbing cake from the fridge, some more appeared on the counters.

Flemeth: You should just have fresh cake instead. With all those puddles around, who knows what’s been in it.

Yes, that means more birthdays.

Fiora: Yoohoo yay!
Fenris: Why don’t you just go blow your own candles?

Fenris aged up first and ran outside.

He rolled Flirty.

Then Finnick.

He got Vegetarian.

Flemeth is now a Hopeless Romantic.

Ethan: Hur hur.

And finally Fiora.

She rolled Nurturing.

Birthday is a good point to end it. Especially since the next update probably makes it until the next one. Which will mean a heir poll! Almost one year later than it was supposed to be! Yay! So. Much. Yays. But until then, happy simming!

Actually I also have a question for you. Since most people read these on mobile phones and I don’t have one, I have no idea how it looks or if it’s painful to read. So, is my picture format making it a major pain to just read my updates? Should they be bigger, smaller, as is?

5.7- Glitch in the Matrix

Oh hello! I’d love to just casually pretend I never stopped posting… Thing is, I can’t do that. I lost my saves. Everything.
Luckily for you all, I somehow managed to find a file from when Ethan got named heir. I know, right? I have rebuilt the entire town, mainly using premade houses from TSR, and populated the town with sims from there too, to avoid having the same old townies (and genes).
Using a very wide variety of cheats, I recreated what I lost. However, what you guys last saw, the F kids became children. In my save, I was ready for a heir poll, Ethan was done with his LTW and so much more. Because it was pretty frustrating to do and I lost many things hard to acquire, this playthrough will contain “cheats” to have things “happen” the way they really did when I originally played –which were a MAJOR PAIN at the time for some, but hey, consistency.

The kids were re-created and since they are alien spawn, they luckily mostly look the same.

But this is what happens when you cheat a toddler into a kid through CAS…

This time around, the Moonwisp family adopts a cat.

Her name is Nova and she is gorgeous!

All credits go to Angel for making her.

Thank you for allowing me to put her into my game.

Do not be surprised if there ever is (and there will be) picture spams of her majesty.

Nova: We have a problem, my bowl is empty.

Having an online posted legacy has its perks.

For instance, when you lose all your stuff, you have tons of pictures to re-create from.

Most of the house still looks the same, especially when it comes to the colour schemes.

It is however smaller, and more practical. And hopefully sims stop getting stuck in awkward spots for pictures…

For those interested, the house is located on the original Sunset Valley’s Goth family property. It is a 64×64 land and closer to town and the legacy has outlived the days where money was a challenge anyway.

On to the tour, the fireplace.

Dining room.

Very similar coloring, but some white to lighten it up.

The kitchen is the same coloring.

It is no longer diagonal, as it was causing routing issues.

The bar area got an updated “I care about your corner” look.

Fun fact: A lot more people started having drinks.

The house still contains the “original room” where Aurora is said to have started this legacy.

Mainly storage.

The living room is merged with an appropriate party area.

Eve is of course bee-lining for the TV to play video games.

There is a so-called office space with a door leading to the backyard.

Not the most interesting area, so most likely where everyone will end up in…

The grey/pale blue bathroom made it.

Far more accessible than it used to be.

Nursery is slightly bigger, to allow for more toddlers shenanigans.

It also has children’s toys, making it a playroom as well.

The garage gets to look like one.

It has the sculpting station, inventing table, drafting table, chemistry set and science station as well as drums.

The red bathroom is also back.

It also has laundry equipment. Because why not make this legacy that much more painful?

Dalyra (Rip) and Gan’s bedroom.

Sadly, Dalyra’s relics did not make it.

Boys room.

A bit bland but inspiration is no always present.

Orange bathroom.

Also upgraded with washer and dryer. And better accessibility.

The gym keeps the same theme but things are a bit more moved around.

Had to fit the layout of the house…

Hallway.

Bland, as Eve’s many paintings did not make it. Hope for her to make more in this parallel universe.

Flemeth’s bedroom.

The girls get their own separate bedrooms because reasons.

Fiora’s.

Reasons such as layout, keeping rooms to a minimum and such.

The green bathroom.

While still close to the gym, it can be accessed from the hall too.

Finally, the biggest upgrade since the “move”, the backyard.

Full barbecue set and bar.

Firepit and coal-walk.

So much work went into having it look nice.

A rework of the pool.

It is based on one Flynn (from my Ravenwood babyboom) did as a work assignment, but those files were lost too, so might as well reuse.

Eve’s crying gazebo also found it’s place, next to a bee’s box.

The fenced-in space with a clothesline is the future garden.

A pond for the possible future fishers.

And for looks, who are we kidding?

Let’s see what the Moonwisps are all up to before the shitstorm hits. Ethan has found new contemplation for his bowl of cereal.

Ethan: How do I know this isn’t my uncle Duncan’s squire?

On the other hand, Gan has found old contemplation in the rocking chair.

Some things never change.

Flemeth is doing her homework in the backyard.

Not for much longer, because it is a Monday morning.

Fiora is walking out in the front yard.

She is headed to the schoolbus.

The boys are already in it.

Flemeth and Fenris are the ones with a more slightly different look from before.

Cosmos is casually standing in her box.

Cosmos: Hey. Care to fix my overly shiny coat anytime soon?

And the family’s newest paparazzi is enjoying the pool.

Eve is already at work.

First thing Gan does is guzzle down as much alcohol as he can in one morning.

Gan: This is “juice”, nitwit.

The so-called juice turned him into an animal-lover.

He hurries to play with Nova.

Much to her contentment.

In the original universe, Nova was a kitty adopted to complete Ethan’s LTW as he was running out of time to find and befriend more strays.

Hence, Nova was introduced much earlier.

Call it cheating, but he is not doing it the hard way again.

Plus, he has to work his body to be the buffest of them all again.

As well as getting the strength to go with it. Come on you weak scrub, push it!

The kids are back from school.

Gan: Lilac is sooooo cool.
Fenris: Gramps, you’re drunk, aren’t you?

Fiora goes to read a book.

There is a reading area, but sure…computer desk is fine too.

Gan of course had to disturb her.

Gan: Flies, I tell you! They could fit up your nose!

Finnick finds a spot to do his homework.

Many would have preferred the benches just behind him, but Finnick knows best.

It has been exactly 5 pictures since the last Nova screenshot.

Nothing like a good stretch.

Or like a good clawnicure.

She is adorable.

And a little stalk.

She is practicing her hunting skill.

Eve got herself started on sculpting.

She would eventually finish it and it was sold.

Eve and Gan had a meal together and shared some quality time.

Gan: Sculpting is for losers, you should paint instead.

Remember when Ethan met a unicorn in the lost universe?

In this one, he is black.

Ethan will have to meet him again, but for now he is training his life away until he attains his previous level of buff.

Ethan: And I once did that while studying for exams, getting good grades, flirting with Eve and going to parties?

The kids are far too good to ever do something interesting.

Finnick…eats.

Flemeth does her homework on her tablet.

When their needs and chores are done, they usually read or play with their Imaginary Friends.

Gan is completely obsessed with Nova.

He always goes to her.

He keeps her happy and plays with her.

Which is good because Ethan is usually very busy.

Gan also wants to help with keeping the fridge full.

Nova: Um, excuse me! I want pancakes, not some squirmy macaroni!

In his routine, Ethan starts laundry.

Ethan: I’ll never complete my Lifetime Wish at this rate…

He can relax though, because hunting for strays was extremely annoying and bug inducing.

He’ll instead adopt a bunch of horses to keep Cosmos company.

Until then, he skills up whenever he has a moment.

Which is more often than before, since this house doesn’t have a garden to take care of yet.

Pan to the simselves, what have we here?

We have Jenn flirting with her boyfriend, Jamaal Vaughan (distant cousin of the Moonwisps).

He gets a makeover so that if she ever drags him to parties, he won’t look like a dumbass townie.

Better.

My simself is pregnant. Again.

This save file is fresh… Come on… Contain yourself a little.

Samali is staring into emptiness in the office.

Samali: While the owner of this blog scrubbed her save, I’m pretty much nearing the end of my legacy. I’m a boss. Yes I am.

That night, Ethan finally befriended the unicorn.

Again.

He asks him to join the household.

Ethan: I cook granola for my horse more than I cook for my kids.

Accepted!

Ethan: Sparkles? Am I an elder already?

This is Eclipse.

He is already an elder.

Going back home, something went terribly wrong with Ethan.

Ethan: Oh wow, there sure is a lot to see down here. Worms and such.

He was reset and sent to research science.

Ethan: If I could magnify a worm, perhaps it would count as a stray.

Four more horses were adopted, hence completing Ethan’s lifetime wish.

They were all sent to the stables and acquainted one another.
Cosmos: I would very much enjoy not being shown your bum on the first day.

Eclipse tried to apologize.

Eclipse: I see you are not male. This is good.
Cosmos: Excuse me?

However much of a douchebag, it is hard to resist a unicorn.

Cosmos: He fixed my shiny coat issue. And all the other horses are female as well.
Eclipse: Oooo, interesting.

This one is Asteroid.

You might remember seeing her as a wild horse in previous chapters.

The pale one is Comet.

Simple and gorgeous.

Last one is Nebula.

Her coat was edited to bring some variety.

Eclipse has already scored with Cosmos.

Cosmos: I had no idea this is what you meant by roll in hay.

As soon as they were out, Eclipse let out a loud sigh.

Eclipse: Oh boy, I’m getting too old for this.

Indeed he is.

Comet: Did you just woohoo him to death?

Sad, and some ashamed, the horses and Ethan said goodbye to Eclipse.

Comet: I wanted some of that too.
Ethan: I spent too long befriending you!

Off he went, into the sparkle on the wall.

Though this event was forced in this game, it truly did happen this way originally. (Which at first really upset me because it had been a real challenge to get a unicorn into an ISBI full of bugs and lag)

No matter, Ethan has the situation under control!

Ethan: I’m a scientist, and I know a thing or two about death.

His upbringing would finally prove useful.

Ethan: I mean…I could have brought Edward back to life but I preferred waiting for something more exciting. (That’s where the opportunity was from).

Outside the science facility, Elvis is spotted.

Elvis: I totally did NOT give alien samples to help humans advance their knowledge.

Samali knows the truth.

Samali: He totally did. I gave him a taste of those probes.

Jenn apparently took part in this too.

Jenn: Well, I’m hungry. This creep can’t resuscitate right.

All that to say that Ethan’s meddling with science was successful…ish.

Ethan: Well Jenn, I told you I knew more about ghosts than living things.
Eclipse: Death can’t stop me now, ladies.

We’re all caught up. Here are bonus pictures from the old save, which I still had since I sent them to a friend.

When the sucker died.

RIGHT AFTER BEING FRIENDS WITH EVERYONE.

When he came back as the lord of trolls he is.

He is the biggest turd of all times so I get to impale him in a tree and portray him like a douche.

Him proving that I don’t need to force this persona unto him.

Eclipse: Hey gurl!

Well, here is to hoping that having to recreate everything from scratch will have me backing up my save more often in case stuff happens. I probably still won’t do it often enough…
Until then, happy simming!

5.6- Dusty Granola

Sul sul readers! I really suck at naming my chapters! I usually just pick words that loosely fit the generation and what’s happening in the update. This time is no different. Something else I really suck at is intros so I’ll just recap just as poorly right away! Last time, the Moonwisps were Moonwisps. Ethan was stuck in a loop of caring for everything and everyone, and Finnick lived a very traumatic experience.

The family has been receiving many calls about the incident, as well as comments on the kids being half-aliens.

Dalyra: I could care less about what YOU think, Jerald, seriously!

The adults responsible of that cruel act all felt terribly guilty and line up for his forgiveness.

Elvis: Why am I still here? I thought I was supposed to move out today?

It’s the kids birthday, so it was deemed he could stay for the event.

Finnick couldn’t be happier to move on to days where he doesn’t depend on others as much.

It would go a lot faster if others would bring toddlers to the cakes, but nooooo, only Ethan gets to do it.

Because of this, it will be much later into the day by the time it’s over.

Another sparkly shot.

There is never enough sparkly shots.

Nor cake shots!

At least this time each kid gets a different looking cake.

Flemeth got a snowflake one because she loves the cold, and that’s about as far as the thinking went.

Hopefully growing up next to the bar wont make her develop nasty habits. She already has a nasty smelling father.

Enough with sparkly and cake shots even though there is never enough, let’s take a look at the kids!

Finnick rolled Eccentric. Being abandoned in front of City Hall tends to do that…

Flemeth rolled Sailor.

A grumpy winter sailor with massive eyelashes.

Fenris rolled Heavy Sleeper.

Fiora went to sleep in the treehouse before a picture was taken, but she rolled Genius as her third trait.

Flemeth has a chat with her Grandpa, but he’s into his habit of dissing people.

Gan: You’re the oaf of your generation, you have a different Ooh-Ha!

Their conversation was cut short by aliens requisitioning Gan for his harmful words.

How could he dare insult someone of their lineage?

Flemeth went to her sister for advice. (Here is Fiora, by the way)

Flemeth: What’s a Ooh-Ha anyway?
Fiora: No clue but apparently your eyes are yellow behind all that black.

Meanwhile, Fenris is spinning a horror story.

Both Eve and Dalyra are there to enjoy it.

His very keen ears having caught Gan’s words in the bathroom below, his stories were very inspired.

Fenris: He turned around and looked at her… She had no Ooh-Ha!

Later that night, Dalyra woke from her slumber.

Dalyra: Damn this kid and his stories. An old lady can’t get some sleep anymore?

As she is about to realize, she will rather get lots of sleep.

Dalyra: Aw crap, who’ll keep Gan from crossing the line now?

Fenris, who was being naughty and not sleeping, came running in shortly after.

Fenris: I’m sorry Grandma, I didn’t mean to kill you!

Finnick soon arrived, closely followed by Grimmy.

Grimmy: Hey there little gummy bears!

Ethan, who has been holed up in all kinds of corners, resurfaced for this moment.

Dalyra: Why in the world are YOU crying? Dumbnut.

Oddly enough, she still begged for more.

Dalyra: You don’t understand, Gan will put his hat up people’s butt!
Grimmy: Oh Lord…

Nothing swayed Grimmy, as usual, and into the urn Dalyra went.

She lived a full life, had 4 kids from two different men, caught many fish and insulted just as many people.

Life goes on, and Fiora paints what seems to be a tomato or a strawberry.

Her inspiration comes in the dark, or perhaps she never learnt how to turn on the lights.

Since she dwells in the dark, having a good picture is close to impossible.

Either way, here she is in a closer angle.

Elvis should have been gone a long time ago, but he stayed longer, wishing to atone for being part of the “Lost Finnick Incident”.

Now is his time, say goodbye to Elvis and Elliot.

The various corners Ethan has been lurking in include the kitchen.

He is NOT cooking up lovely meals for his wife and children, but preparing premium horse granola for Cosmos…

During the night, he chases down the unicorn that started running in these lands.

First he could only watch it from afar.

But soon, he was close to him (I think it’s a him), whispering sweet things to his ear.

Ethan: I’m working on the perfect granola recipe.

Apparently, the unicorn was impressed.

He blessed Ethan with all the powers bestowed upon him.

And then Ethan rolls this…

Of all the creatures he has ever met, he only ever wishes to become the ones he CAN’T POSSIBLY BE!

Such as an imaginary friend…

Lifeless for a long time, Lucky might have found a new friend…

When morning came, the unicorn had to go to mysterious places, so Ethan took Cosmos out for a ride.

On their way, they saw this horse who previously disappeared as Ethan tried to befriend it.

Ethan and Cosmos however continued to the Equestrian Center.

They entered a racing competition.

They won first place easily.

Elizabeth: Hey BFF, long way from being frozen on the ground!

While Cosmos headed back home for a well-deserved rest, Ethan stayed behind.

There is a wild horse to befriend.

However she decided to go for a run.

Poor Ethan had to follow at his pathetic human running speed.

The horse ended up to a far away fishing location, to judge a flirting couple severely.

Horse: Ew, you picked THAT guy?

Back home, Eve added another kind of horse to the household.

She almost always paints doll-like characters.

Horse hunting is pretty tiring and Ethan has to take a break of some sorts.

He rides on Horse riding, since he is too exhausted and sore to ride a horse.

Flemeth was on hoping to sneak into bed without being seen by her parents, but that failed.

Ethan: Why aren’t you sleeping already?
Flemeth: I’m looking for Grandpa. I haven’t seen him since he was abducted.

As soon as he was awake after a short night of sleep, Ethan hurried to his garden.

Always mostly naked, as per his habit.

After school, Finnick was invited to a friend’s house.

Friend in question is Frank Rourke’s offspring. He does not take after his father.

With his trust issues, Finnick however leaves him to do his homework on the porch.

Finnick: Sweet, I’m going for the slide!

He spent the whole evening on the family playground.

Finnick: Wee!

In the meantime, Ethan took to the kitchen again.

Flemeth: I’m not eating Horse granola, so I’ll just go…

Satisfied with the improvements he made to his recipe, Ethan went to bed at the same time as his wife, for the first time in forever.

How cute, wearing his suit for the occasion.

Next morning, the whole family is headed for the Fall Festival. Gan left his mourning on the rocking chair to fall into his old habits.

Gan: SPOOKY DAY IS COMING!

Fiora went straight for the ice cone machine.

Rainbow flavour is what she chose, who knows what that tastes like. Except Skittles.

Ethan challenged Finnick to a pie eating contest.

Finnick is extremely thrilled about eating from his face.

Fenris joins them, making it a true father and sons moment.

And it’s Go time!

All three splat their face in the pie, instantly looking like a terrible murderer.

Finnick: Mine tastes like burnt.

Ethan and his bigger adult stomach are the winners!

Ethan: What can I say? No-one ever taught me manners. I do this all the time.

Damien arrived at the park with his cat, Dawn. Ethan decided he needed to befriend her.

Damien: She’s no stray, let’s make it clear.

Beside the restroom, a tragedy took place. Bryan was savagely attacked by cuteness overload and died.

Except it isn’t so tragic because Bryan has been around forever (he is Bane’s son).

Grimmy was quick to arrive, and nobody else but the animals cared.

Bryan: Please, my life was so short…
Grimmy: Don’t you even try…

Since Dawn was now sad from witnessing something utterly overdue, Ethan played with her to cheer her up.

The toddler can just be abandoned, nobody cares.

As night fell, he gave her a nice brush up.

The reason to befriend her is because Ethan needs to have many animal friends so he can adopt the unicorn.

They had fun all night, until dawn came. Not the cat…

Ethan: You must be a pro at catching scarabs!
Dawn: Not a recommended activity for a pregnant lady like me.

Since Damien left long ago and Ethan wouldn’t let his new friend starve and die, he gave her a ride back home.

Dawn: Thank you kind sir, I’ll tell the unicorn you’re a good lad.

The gnomes are having a reunion in the front yard. Beware!

Gnome: Alright, make a line, trip anyone who goes through!

Next time, the kids will grow into teens (yes, already), Ethan will keep working on befriending strays/wild horses to adopt, and other stuff!

5.5- Nail Fungus

Hello readers and welcome back to the Moonwisp ISBI Alphbetcy Legacy Challenge. I’m so not sorry I abandoned you all for so long. Instead of always repeating the same excuse and pretend I have a life outside sims, I’ll just hide under the carpet and let you read. Last time, Ethan and Eve had quadruplets ; Finnick, Fenris, Fiora and Flemeth, affectionately nicknamed the Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Honestly I don’t remember what else happened.

Dalyra is helping with the toddlers, or at least pretending to.

Dalyra: I swear if Gan has any more illegitimate children, I’ll pull his old man diaper down.

Fenris is playing in the pen, perceptively observing the nursery.

There are all sorts of shenanigans going on, of course.

Such as his grandmother putting on a show.

Gan: There are babies trying to sleep, you know.
Dalyra: IT’S THE EEEEEEYE…

Fiora accompanies her on the walker.

Fiora: …OF THE TIGER!

Since this amazing duo woke up everyone, Ethan had to come in and take care of everyone’s needs.

Ethan: Don’t worry, my little icicle, one day it’ll be calmer.

His own calm is training with Cosmos.

Most of it is done at odd hours.

Nevertheless, Ethan’s greatest fan still shows up.

Elizabeth: Hey pal! If you freeze up, I’m right here, no worries.

Luckily, Elizabeth isn’t needed since Ethan learned of his mistake and goes outside in warmer clothes more often now.

His usual tasks include toddler care, horse care, garden care, and starting all over.

Eve’s usual task include finding all kinds of ways not to hear the toddlers’ crying.

Way to run away from responsibilities.

Except it’s all calm in the nursery right now.

Everyone is just having a good time.

Elliot thought this place needed more action, so he lit it up with his birthday.

Soon, he will move out with Elvis. (But will still be on the Downloads page once he is a young adult).

With no-one to cheer for his birthday, he rolls Vehicle Enthusiast.

Elliot: One day, I’ll build a spaceship.

Dalyra truly is a grumpy old woman.

Dalyra: Now my plate is empty and it won’t walk itself to the dishwasher. It sucks.

Perhaps it’s time for her to start her afterlife?

Ghosts always seem to have fun.

Now that Elvis is a Friendly young adult, he gets along with people better, including Gan.

Elvis: Stop trying to fool me Dad, I know that’s not how humans greet one another.

When Ethan is in between caring duties, he spends time with whoever is not too busy.

It often ends up being Flemeth, who is completely skilled up and ends up finding toys.

Fenris is almost done learning everything he needs to know.

Ethan: The correct tune to summon the Dark Lord of the Dark is Purple-Blue-Blue-Yellow-Red.

While Flemeth practices the ritual, Ethan has to go back to his duties.

A dirty horse won’t do. Strays won’t be tempted to move in if animals aren’t taken good care of.

Which leads back to the garden, for some quality produce to feed Cosmos as a treat.

Gnome: Need some help?
Ethan: Piss off.

While Ethan drives himself to his grave tending to everything, these two enjoy some more father and son time.

Elvis: I’m so glad you finally acknowledge my existence, maybe I won’t destroy the planet now.

Cosmos found the cake on the patio table.

Cosmos: What’s that? Is it for me?

It is not for her, but for her master. She at least gets to assist to his birthday.

Cosmos: Behold, FIRE!

The rest of the able family showed up, though less impressed by the candles.

Eve: Yay.

Ethan has barely accomplished anything, other than a Science Degree, one horse and four kids.

So of course he gets a Midlife Crisis.

He is also in terrible need of facial surgery and fake eyebrows.

Ethan: Maybe I should not have a head.

Glued-on eyebrows and play-dough on the face works wonders! (Luckily it was an easy glitch to fix. Ethan is the most glitched-filled sim I’ve seen in my game, it’s a miracle I can still play him)

Ethan: Nobody can know.

Lucky for him, his kids are all too young to know and rub it in his face (pun intended) when they’re older.

For the moment, they mainly bask in the happy place that the toy chest is.

Elizabeth managed to show up for Ethan’s birthday, though a tad late.

Gan: You may have some cake, I’m so sick of eating it.
Elvis: Then don’t eat it. We have a fully equipped kitchen.

Gan went to explore this mythical place called kitchen, while Eve and Elvis happily had cake.

Elvis: Red is kind of a mainstream color, but I have to admit you do great paintings.

In the time it took him to express his admiration, she had gulped her entire cake down while his remained intact.

Elvis: It makes me wonder if that’s what humans call emotions.
Eve: We’re not robots, you know? We have emotions too.

Because he’s so close to being done, Fenris finishes his training with Daddy.

Ethan: Just one more and I can stop stinking!

That would be true if Elvis didn’t choose this exact moment to graduate.

Elvis: Alright folks, let’s go get that piece of paper so I can be a free man!

Ethan quickly grabbed the bathroom trash to take it out as they left.

Ethan: Too bad it wont cover MY smell.

Everybody grabbed a toddler and left. Except poor Flemeth.

Eve: Honey, maybe you should stay behind and care for Flemeth?

Ethan didn’t object, and after giving her a bottle, took a quick bath.

Ethan: Wow, I didn’t realize I had nail fungus. I wonder if…

Fungus testing would be for another time.

While everybody was gone, Flemeth, the first toddler in forever, got to be told a story.

On the other end of the spectrum, Finnick got to be left alone in front of City Hall.

Dude: How could someone abandon such a cute baby?

The family was soon back home, and all toddlers except Flemeth required care.

Ethan: Great, now Fenris hates life and…where’s Finnick? Did you guys forget Finnick?

Ethan rushed to City Hall to find his passed out child.

Ethan: Even I wasn’t neglected that much.

The unceasingly growing crowd calmed down when Ethan picked him up.

Ethan: There there buddy, this creepy lady won’t take you home with her, don’t worry.

He still had to endure the judgemental looks of bystanders.

Dude: They don’t look anything alike, he’s probably not even his real Dad.

With all his needs in the red, Finnick gets to stop suffering from hunger first.

Ethan: Never trusting people with my kids again.

Finnick couldn’t be happier about his father’s decision.

True to his word, Ethan didn’t let him out of his sight for the rest of the day and repaired the teleporter while his son ate.

Before concluding this chapter, here is other interesting things that happened.

Silly Suede Suggestions for a trashy novel sounds really…trashy.

 

Next time, the kids will age up into children and Ethan will slowly start working on his Lifetime Wish some more, enjoying a little bit more freedom! He and Eve will also finally stop being on parenthood leave + honeymoon days off and go back to work!

5.4- Horsemen of the Apocalypse

Hello again! It’s the last time I’ll say that this is Update #5 for SimNaNoWriMo, which ends with September. Last time, Eve got pregnant, and Ethan got a horse. He was also left frozen on the lawn. Let’s see if Gan ever decided to save the heir?

Well Gan didn’t but the paparazzi did.

This girl is officially the best paparazzi around.

If Ethan wasn’t already married, he would have picked her. She seems to agree.

Elizabeth: You’re quite the piece of meat, Mr Moonwisp. I’d hate to see you get freezer burned.

Ethan promptly thanked his savior. Elizabeth O’Malley is a name that will not be forgotten.

Ethan: I swear, if you ever get stung by a jellyfish, I’ll be the first to pee on you.

After securing his most important friendship ever, he made sure to warm himself up beside the woman he loves.

He would tell her all about it in the morning.

When it came, Elliot was already practicing his blocks skill.

He is not done with the more important skills, but no-one is up to help him train yet.

The ghost still refuse to go back into their graves when the sun it up.

Ethan: Would be nice if you guys made yourselves useful at least.
Bellatrix: But he stinks!

Once he was done with Elliot, Ethan found Eve in the upstairs bathroom.

She is so very pregnant, she could pop at any moment now.

Such as RIGHT NOW!

Maybe choosing another spot than right in front of the toilet would be wise?

Except no-one is there to tell her, as Ethan is napping on the couch.

Completely unaware how much he’ll need the sleep in about two hours.

It’s a girl! She likes Red, Spaghetti and Rap.

Her name is Fiora and she is Artistic and Disciplined.

Eve walked all the way to the nursery to set Fiora down.

Then she felt the need to push again.

It’s another girl, who likes Irish Green, Chinese music and Firecracker Tofu.

She was named Flemeth. She is a Grumpy girl who Loves the cold.

Ethan woke up from his nap to come and meet his daughters.

Meanwhile, Eve gave birth to Finnick, a little Disciplined and Loner boy who loves Spiceberry, Egg Rolls and Egyptian…

Right after Finnick was in his crib, Eve started sparkling again…

Ethan: Seriously honey? Four? Are you trying to kill me?

Last one is also a boy, Fenris!

He is a Perceptive Slob. He likes Spice brown, Grilled Salmon and Beach Party music.

Elvis was awake and quickly came to meet the new half-aliens.

Elvis: You’re at least half as good as me, little nugget.

The rest of the family came too, including ghosts.

Despite Ethan acting like a total scrub, the Nurturing trait he got from University should come in handy.

Cole sat and watched the familiar chaos in front of him, with a bad case of déja vu.

Cole: I had it worse. The game was lagging and no-one else helped.

It is eerie how the two men’s situation resemble one another.

Both will have delt with a total of 5 toddler/baby combo, one of which is an alien.

Before real toddler hell starts, Ethan decides to tackle some skilling to avoid being swarmed later.

Elliot: Finnick is a crybaby.

No, Finnick IS a baby.

Ethan quickly took care of his son before going completely crazy since all babies started chaining their need for attention.

Outside, Cosmos drinks from the pond, enjoying the horse life.

Happy to be oblivious to the endless screeches happening inside.

Between waves of crying, Ethan sneaks in a nap in Cole’s old bedroom.

His own is way too far so a two-generation old bed is all he gets.

What is Eve doing while there is an army of kids in need of adults?

Painting. At least it’s something pretty.

Elvis and Gan are both lending a hand that morning.

Gan: If you took one baby, only one would be left unattended.

It would be true, since Ethan is done napping and finishing Elliot’s potty training.

He is now fully skilled up.

Good timing since there is about to be four more toddlers in need of learning stuff.

They will also cruelly break everyone’s ears at all times.

Skipping sparkles shots because it would be too many of them…

Flemeth! She has Ethan’s hair. It’s hard to tell facial structure on toddlers, but she has those long gorgeous eyelashes!

Fenris has black hair!

It could be from Gan, but it could also be from Jerald.

Fiora also has Daddy’s hair color.

She is also stinky, requiring adult attention.

And lastly Finnick.

He has Mommy’s hair and his face sure look a lot different from the typical alien.

Gan has a favorite!

Gan: There now. We both know your hair color is the best in the world.

Once Gan set him down, Ethan started teaching him how to talk while Finnick was in the walker.

Ethan: Well, I’m super ripped and I think that has something to do in me being heir so you should start working out now if that’s your goal.

For now, little Fenris has goals more fit for a child.

Such as fitting the cylinder in the circle hole. You can do it, Fenris!

The elders love eachother deeply.

They are the meanest couple of this entire legacy but are the ones who autonomously show lover for one another the most.

Cosmos doesn’t get much attention because of all the kids.

So she just takes care of herself.

She also gets to do silly things since no-one is watching ever.

Still a good girl.

Another shot showing toddler skilling.

Dalyra wants to help but it completely clueless.

Cole is irritated at Elliot’s xylophone talent.

He definitely has had enough toddlers to last him a lifetime, and now more.

Ethan’s brain can only stay on child-friendly subjects for so long.

Ethan: Some mushrooms are radio-active. So be careful what you lick, okay honey?

Gan’s sense of humor will never change. Lucky for him his favorite target is still around.

Gan: You’ll get pregnant again and never go to work, hahahaha!

There is also a limit to how much Ethan can watch over all his kids.

Finnick just mushed his entire head. Hopefully he does not seem aware.

Whenever Ethan DOES manage to find some time for Cosmos, she is asleep from a long day with herself.

Ethan: Don’t worry girl, I’m not forgetting you.

Elvis’ birthday is also not forgotten. He gets cake!

Everyone is there to cheer him on!

Yes, everyone, except some can’t seem to figure it out…

Dalyra: Happy Birthday, man in the frame!

Elvis did not change too much.

He rolled Friendly as his last trait. So now he wants to be friends with everyone he ever dissed.

Before this chapter ends, news from the spares…

It happened. Elika, you are a disappointment. Michelle got deleted and the relationship was broken. Brian (Bane’s son) should have been dead a long time ago anyway.

What will happen next? Who is your favorite toddler so far? Will Ethan crumble under the pressure? Will he ever work on his lifetime wish? There is much yet to discover, and until then, happy simming!

5.3- Glowy Fungus

Welcome back to the Moonwisp Chronicles, which is just a glorified name for this ISBI Alphabetcy legacy. Also, this is Update #4 for SimNaNoWriMo on the Boolprop forum. Last time, Ethan and Eve finished their degree, came home and got married. I’ll try to keep it a bit shorter because I tend to demotivated in the middle of an update and just write whatever to be done with it…So on with it!

The previous heir is still around, finally doing whatever it is she wishes.

Such as feeling totally disgusted by her father’s appearance while being super happy too.

She also uses much of her time with her currently fat husband.

Gan: Will you still love me when I’m old?
Dalyra: I’d love you even more if you stopped popping kids that aren’t mine. I only made one. Not fair.

Dalyra is not hating on the poor kids themselves and has a good relationship with them.

It’s a big change from Elvis refusing to interact with non-aliens in a kind manner.
Elvis: I’m all shook up! Hmm Mm Mm!

The current heir is currently mostly working on his science machine.

He is about to analyze and test on a plant extract.

Whatever he did to it, when it came back out, the effect applied to him too.

It didn’t seem to do much expect make him glow.

Ethan was a lot more worried about side effects. Only he knows what he did on that extract, after all.

Ethan: Will my poop be glow in the dark now?

It only lasted a few hours and it was gone by the time Gan came home from work.

Ethan: Can I test if your DNA has something in common with one of a whale?

Gan came back home early because he finally had to deliver his package.

He would finally be back to his skinny self.

Meat Elliot, a baby boy who is Artistic and Disciplined.

He likes R&B, Tri-Tip Steak and Turquoise.

As you can see from this picture, it is bright day outside, and ghosts are still out…

Ethan: Can’t a guy take a dump in peace?
Bellatrix: The bath is no place to do that, dear. Someone had to stop you.

Gan probably overheard what was going on from the nursery because he started giving Aurora a hard time.

Gan: You stupid ghosts didn’t teach him the difference between a toilet and a bath? You Moonwisps are all trash!
Aurora: You married one and so did your daughter! You better stop talking trash about our family!

Dalyra was reminiscing good times with her father, oblivious to the chaos going down in the nursery (poor Elliot having to witness it all).

Dalyra: Hey Dad, do you remember when you were…alive?
Cole: Well duh.

He then leaned in to share a secret with her.

Cole: Did I ever tell you how much I love potatoes?

While there is not a single soul in the sim world that hasn’t heard of Cole’s undying love for potatoes, none seemed to care.

Just like nobody cares about Gan’s birthday. He didn’t even get a cake.

He got a makeover but it can’t be seen because he is in his work outfit.

As he aged up, Gan started playing on his imaginary ukulele.

He’s just trying to accompany Dalyra on her very real piano, though, right?

Eve is just enjoying the tunes.

Elvis is often taking care of Elliot, making sure to give him more alien influence than human.

As soon as he is an adult and Elliot a child, they will be moving out together. (Not to worry, Elliot will still be available for download once he reaches YA).

Ethan and Eve still have not had their first day of work, due to their wedding giving them days off.

Ethan takes that time to work out. He just now completed the skill challenge to put in a total of 60 hours as strength workout.

He quickly went to wash the stink away in the green bathroom which is now the “gym bathroom”.

Gnome: Don’t mind me, I’ll just watch.

Ethan took a power nap to regenerate from all the energy spent on the bench.

Lucky still has not come out of her doll form. She is probably broken.

Upon waking up, he went to take care of Elliot, only to realize Eve also wanted to take care of her brother. (Eve and Elliot are full siblings, they have the same alien mother)

Ethan: Wanna make our own green bundle of joy?

That is most likely a yes.

Do note the presence of a ghost during the day again…

To the shower they went to fulfill this important mission. Important for this to be a legacy anyway.

Ethan: Is this how it’s done?

Whether or not they figured it out is unknown, but Ethan was next seen cooking spaghetti.

This is in no way a significant event to report.

Elliot gets all the love. People line up just to take care of him before he even starts to cry.

Gan: But I wanted to hold my son…

Always a tactful diplomat, Gan put Eve back in her place.

Gan: How about you leave my kids to me, you filthy witch?

Eve was quite miffed, given how he barely gave her any attention when she was a baby.

Eve: I AM your kid, Dad. And this one is my brother so no, I’ll make sure he has everything he needs.

It only took a few minutes for Gan to exact his revenge.

Gan: If I can’t hold my son, then you can’t sit on the rocking chair.

Next morning, Ethan decided it was time to start working on his lifetime wish.

The only strays in town seem to be horses, and they immense issues figuring out how to life.

Ethan quickly enacted his childhood memories about riding horses.

Wild Horse: Wow, that is just offending. I’ll have none of it.

He tried interacting with the horse all day but it never quite led anywhere, until it just…disappeared.

Ethan: Where the hell did it go to?

That’s when he realized that having a horse friend might make things easier. (AKA I read that you can’t adopt a wild horse unless the sim has some riding skill. Also, that adopting from the shelter counts as “stray”. Ethan will still attempt to adopt actual strays because otherwise there is no challenge to it)

Ethan: Yes, can I have some ranch dressing with my horse please? … What do you mean that’s not what a Horse Ranch is?

After clearing the confusion over salad dressings , a horse was sent over.

ShelterGuy:  Ketchup, Mustard or Mayo? (No wonder why Ethan is confused)

This beauty is a mare and her name is Cosmos.

She is Quiet and Hates Jumping.

A small stable was built. There might not be much space for running but horses in this game are smart enough to get out on their own.

She quickly settled in.

Meanwhile Eve popped into pregnancy clothes.

Generation F is on the way!

First, the (hopefully) last of generation E is due for a birthday.

Most people were busy so it was just between Gan, Eve and Elliot himself.

He looks like most aliens.

Elvis swooped in on him and marked him with the alien clan tattoo.

Growing up in a crypt seems to have an effect on self-confidence.

Ethan is often scared-looking when attempting something new.

Eventually he was on Cosmos’ back for their first ride together.

Ethan: How did the Headless Horseman lose his head again? I’m not sure this is a good idea.

Off they went, into the sunset (valley).

Enjoy your freedom, you two.

Meanwhile, Elliot is learning about shapes.

A genius in the making.

His future caretaker is recharging his brainpower.

He is the first alien in the entire legacy to do it that way.

Later that evening, Ethan and Cosmos came back from their trip around the city.

Ethan failed at getting off properly.

After which he discovered that it was quite cold outside.

Ethan: I remember Edward being this blue once…

He froze over and fell on the ground…

Cosmos: Oh, quit over exaggerating. I don’t have any clothes and I’m fine.

Gan showed up shortly after. Cosmos tried to signal to him that some human needed help.

Cosmos: It would be most appreciated if you took care of my frozen human.

Gan didn’t catch on and just led Cosmos into her box.

Ethan: Gan? … Gan?

Just so this update isn’t ended on a totally panicking idea, here are news from across town.

Frank FINALLY made a spawn. This Waylon better not look like a turd.

So, what do you think? Will Ethan freeze to death or will someone come to save him? Will we lose our heir before his kids are even born? I’m afraid you’ll have to wait for the next update to find out what happens to Ethan’s sorry butt and everyone else.

Until then, happy simming!

5.2- Jason is In the Place

Hello readers! This is update #3 for the SimNaNoWriMo on Boolprop. It’s a challenge pushing me to churn out more updates, in case you were wondering. I’m sure you wonder more about what’s going to happen to Ethan! Well, last time, he finished his first semester in University, and signed up for his last one immediately after, which is where we’re picking him up. He also made Eve his girlfriend.

Ethan arrived back at the University dormitories in the middle of winter, wearing his one-piece pyjamas.

Lizzie: His balls will freeze off soon enough.

Lucky that he is, it didn’t happen, despite refusing to put warmer clothes on to go on an outside date with Eve.

He left Eve to follow from a distance, with his so very devious smile on his face.

He reached the park before her and started skating on the frozen lake.

Ethan: I remember doing this when I was in China.

Eventually, Eve joined him but she was much less at ease.

Eve: How do I even move around? How do you do it?

Ethan was not insensitive to her pleas and took it upon himself to teach her.

Ethan: Just take my hands, I’ll take you for a spin.

He did not realize taking a beginner for a spin was a terrible idea until it was too late.

Eve: Goodbye, cruel life!

It did not kill them as Eve thought it would, but she did land on her butt and Ethan flat on his stomach.

Ethan: It’s okay, I’m used to cold and hard surfaces.

Avoiding more pain still seemed like a better option and they went on to the student’s greeting event.

Ethan: Sucks to be a senior student. Now I’m the one handing out freebies and I get nothing. Lame.

Eve went upstairs and found the easel.

Too bad she’ll never finish it.

Ethan and Eve took romantic pictures in the photo booth.

Ethan pretends to look at them but he truly is fixated on Eve’s butt like an old perv.

The torch-holder spotted a specimen that made him flop around like a fish, overwhelmed with joy.

A vampire. A vampire making a speech to nobody!

This of course means it’s not really rude to interrupt to get to know him better, right?

Ethan: May I avidly caress your teeth and gum and take a sample of your saliva please?

When he refused, Ethan threw a rubber ducky at him. His quick supernatural senses allowed him to catch it easily.

Ethan: Fooled you! Now I got your DNA on that duck.

Nevertheless, they became friends and Ethan could sleep soundly.

Surely dreaming of taking baths with vampires.

Next morning after class, he sat down for a game of chess with himself.

BlondGuy: Oh wow, Jason is here. Better take a picture to prove he exists.

Eventually back home, he showered fully clothed.

That’s one way of getting laundry done faster.

It was then time for supper, where Ethan’s excitement rose through the roof again.

Ethan: Holy fungus! I’ve been blessed with the presence of a werewolf at my very own table.

Afraid Eve would be jealous of his awe for other creatures, he made sure to reassure her.

A creature from outer space will always be more special than something from your own planet.

While everyone in the dorm slept, Ethan ventured outside onto the campus and found this science machine.

OtherStudent: Is it wise of me to operate this thing with Jason?

As the other person fled, Ethan activated the device.

Ethan: Why is everyone calling me Jason anyway?

While Jason Ethan will never know, he entered more coding into this mysterious machine.

He was secretly hoping it would reveal to him the ultimate recipe for perfect mushroom brew.

He pulled down the lever of doom intently.

While the device sizzled furiously and produced all kinds of lights, Ethan did not grow a better understanding of fungus.

He however lost all notion of decency and showed his butt to anyone who would watch.

Girl: I’ll watch for sure, huehuehue.

Oddly enough, he ended up putting some clothes back on but kept running around stupidly.

Ethan: Bumcrack, everyone! BUMCRACK, hahahaha!

He flailed his arms around as more people arrived to comment on his behaviour.

Justly enough, they mainly thought he was a lunatic.

When his boldness died down, he went back home for a studying session.

Final exams are just around the corner, after all.

Literally.

He passed all his exams with flying colors.

So did Eve.

It seemed to affect her a lot more, and she was glad to finally be done with it.

Ethan celebrated his completion of this semester by working out.

This is the workout where he maxed the athletic skill.

Meanwhile, Eve celebrated by rummaging through the dumpster…

It seems the semester was too much for her.

Others try to sleep the stress off, but SOME would rather play the guitar in the same bedroom.

Jeffery: If I pass my Fine arts Degreeeee, will you please date meeeeee?

Once she cleaned herself off, Eve used her time on more sophisticated activities.

Even Anoki is anxious about receiving his grades.

There they are, out of thin air!

Both Eve and Ethan completed their studies.

Tomorrow is the ceremony, but the rest of tonight goes to resting.

A well-earned nap on the entryway couch.

The next morning came quickly, and the ceremony was soon over and done with.

Ethan’s extra trait from University is Nurturing. He was uploaded to the Family page after being done with University, so he might have the trait.

Eve was overjoyed at being done and kissed her diploma.

She got Ambitious for an extra trait. She was also packaged with it.

Ethan congratulated Eve on her graduation, and she on his.

So formal.

He took her out for a date to the bowling alley before going back home.

Ethan: I’m a certified scientist now, I understand all the laws this ball is subject to. I will win.

Despite his genuine concentration effort and his supposed luck, he tripped as he threw the ball.

Ethan: I meant to do that!

He caught his balance last second, avoiding to fall flat on his face.

It knocked a few down, reinforcing his “how am I lucky” feeling.

Then it was time for them to head home.

Ethan: That limo driver is rude. He wouldn’t even wait for us to finish our match.

While Dalyra still cried her heart out about Edward, Ethan applied for a job.

He is now a L4 scientist, thanks to his degree. Eve did the same with business, which covers her young adult free action.

Finally home and suffering from weird colour filter issues, Ethan showed how far his love for Eve went.

Ethan: Careful, the ceiling is lower here. Let me make sure you go through safely.

In the most awkward corner of the entire house (for picture-taking purposes), he dropped on one knee.

Eve: You’re right, it is pretty low, don’t hit your head when you stand back up.
Ethan: Wait up.

Ethan’s life will ALWAYS be tied to ghosts.

Ethan: Eve, will you —
Bellatrix: COMING THROUGH! DON’T MIND ME! I’M PROUD OF YOU ETHAN!

Needless to say, she said yes and didn’t seem to mind Bellatrix’s interruption.

They hugged under the stairs, with the last potato plant as witness.

Since Ethan is a scientist, he is going to need some handiness skill.

Lucky for him, the house has tons of new things to tinker on.

The spares are still not gone, and Elika found her bedroom.

Elika: Wow, it looks exactly the same as before.

Elvis is still a teen and struggling to understand human things.

Elvis: Who cares about human digestion? They eat, they poo, end of story!

Ethan, always doing things backwards, decided he had to ask Gan for his daughter’s hand.

Gan: I lost one of my sons, and I’m not your father! My life is miserable!

Again, Ethan explained that death wasn’t really a big deal because ghost always come back.

Ethan: They even come in the way of things that are super important.

Gan was immediately in a better mood.

Gan: I can’t wait to be dead and traumatize everyone!

Now that the mood lightened, Ethan deemed it the right moment to ask.

Ethan: As for not being your son, I can always be the second closest thing… Your son in law?

Gan was first confused as to why Ethan would want to marry an alien teenager, until her remembered Eve also existed.

Gan: You fill my heart with joy! With Eve around forever, I’ll be able to scare her out of her wits everyday.

They shared their love for one another over the karaoke.

Ethan & Gan: And I-IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII, WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOOO-OUUUUUUU!

Once the song was over, Gan couldn’t hold in his sadness any longer.

Gan: I know you said they come back, but I can’t wait to tell him how much of a failure he is.

Leaving his father-in-law to dwell on Edward’s death, Ethan made a few phone calls to plan the wedding.

Elrath: Is that what awaits me if I die before father? Ew.

The wedding will take place on a venue (built by me), so Ethan went there before it started to get some food ready for the after-party.

Ethan: Sushi, sushi, and cookies. Can’t imagine people would want anything else.

Then the guests started arriving, so Ethan positioned himself at the wedding arch.

Well, Jason is at the wedding arch right now…

After a few tries to change into his suit, Ethan finally had proper clothing.

Ethan: *creepy smile* Hehe.

The guests include family and simselves.

However, none of them is smart enough to sit down.

Instead, they ALL insist on standing on the platform (I removed it for future weddings…)

Dalyra: I don’t even get first row seat for my son’s wedding? This show sucks.

While everyone route-failed into one another, Ethan kissed the bride.

At least one thing went how it should.

Since no photograph was there to immortalize the moment, Ethan did it on his own.

Also because the photo booth pictures from Uni were lost…

Ethan moved to the reception room and ordered some drinks to get the party started.

Ethan: Is it time for a toast?

No toast is going to happen because GUESTS ARE STUPID.

They kept wanting each other’s autographs and pictures and all ended up leaving afterwards.

True to his nature, Ethan partied on his own.

Ethan: No party? Be the party!

Back home, Elvis abused the fact that no living adult could prevent him from juicing himself up.

Bellatrix: I’m telling your mom. Oh wait…

The whole household eventually found their way back home, where Ethan mind melded with his wife.

Dalyra: I don’t know if that’s how aliens do it, but get a room, you two.

Instead, they got an invitation from Samali for a party.

Since the wedding after-party failed, this would be the party.

At the entrance, Gan started glowing green in all his alien carrier glory.

Samali: You can’t just let one rip out like that…

This is my simself’s third kid, Sha Sha.

Sims 3 genetics do not like my simself a whole lot.

Elrath and Eve took over the bar in the backyard.

Elrath: I’m getting smashed.

Being drunk and going in the pool is supposed to be very dangerous, but whatever, right?

Right as they were all in, they were told it was late and time to go…

On the home porch, Ethan finally said goodbye to his favorite half-sibling.

It’s time for them to go.

Elrath found themselves a new place (where all Moonwisps end up).

Elrath: What the heck? Where’s my phone? What’s going on?

With a lot less action in the house, Ethan decided to try the science machine that’s been waiting for him in the garage.

He would spend lots of time in there in the future, cracking unknown secrets about mushroom and dead people’s ashes.

This is it for now. I have loooots of screenshots to organize and caption. You will most likely see the next one in a millennia or two regardless. Happy Simming!

4.13- Flopping Like a Fish

Well well, an update. Last time I mentionned how the “last kids” would age up… Given how only Ethan is a young adult, it means all three kids will age up in this update.

Starting with Elrath.

He’s excited about becoming old enough to be a man many girls can be fans of.

His siblings are not assisting his birthday, but his father -who doesn’t give a damn- is.

Gan: All hail the retard.

Elrath rolled Savvy Sculptor as his final trait, making him more similar to his father than he’d like. His Lifetime Wish is to become a Superstar Actor. Duh.

Elrath: You may call me… Elrath-sama. (Oh, shut up)

Edward was not attending because he was setting boundaries with Eve.

Edward: We might be best friends, but I’d still like to take a dump in privacy.
Eve: You said we’d share everything.

After relieving himself of his load, Edward washed his hands and prepared waffles for the household.

Edward: Oh my god, I can’t even do waffles right, now? What has this world come to?

He served his burnt waffles with shame.

Edward: No-one will want to be my friend now.

Gan eventually discovered the upstairs bathroom for the first time.

Gan: Wow, this house has an upstairs!

Elrath decided that a famous actor needs to have many skills to have people fawn over him.

Elrath: What are you looking at?

Dalyra has been quiet, mainly studying alchemy, and checking the lawn for precious metals.

Dalyra: Well look at this. Here’s hoping picking this up won’t get any of my boys pregnant.

Chances are it won’t since Elrath is glued to the piano.

…and Ethan passed out in his man cave.

So she went back to her elixir making.

She is making random ones solely for the purpose of gaining some skill points.

Roses are red, Edward is blue…

That’s what happens when you stand on the front porch for hours in your nightwear.

Now that Ethan is allowed inside, Edward thought that he would be allowed into his place.

Edward: What the hell, after all we’ve been through together!

While Edward is freezing his balls off outside, this guy found a way in the house. As usual, his name is unknown because I always forget to note it down. Call him Jim.

ProbablyNotJim: I get to eat as much cake as I want today!

Little did Jim know that the matriarch of the place is not exactly nice towards trespassing strangers.

Dalyra: How dare you come in without knocking? AND without introducing your sorry ass?

Jim was terrified, he had heard the stories about the witch of the wilds mean fishewoman.

DefenitelyNotJim: I’m s-sorry, Miss M-Moonwisp, I uh…
Dalyra: I’m married prick, it’s Madam.

She slapped him for this insult, while Eve looked the other way to preserve her innocence.

Can’tBeJim: B-but M’am?
Dalyra: I said MADAM! Youngsters these days can’t clean their ears or what?

While loud yowls of accusation came from the entry hall, Elvis has his birthday.

Elvis: I finally get some of that sweet sweet puberty!

Sweet sweet puberty also causes one to make bad decisions. Like getting a face tattoo. And rolling Unflirty as his fourth trait.

Elvis: These are my alien clan markings… I think.

He walked out of the bathroom and did not loook away like Eve did.

Elvis: Oh wow, my step-mom blew up with rage.

She’s technically teaching Jim a lesson about how many bones you can break while still being able to walk away.

BrokenJim: I’m sorry Madam!

Dalyra is unforgiving and beat him to a pulp. Elvis is just pretending to be busy but in reality he’s enjoying the show, simply hoping he’s not next.

Dalyra: That’ll teach you for your lack of knowlegde about titles. And for having the same haircut my son had as a toddler.

While all this was happening, Edward tried to decipher the elven glyphs on the crypt’s door to get in.

He never figured out it said to announce yourself a friend.

Dalyra went out to find his pitiful body.

Dalyra: What’s your problem? Do you have a deathwish?

She wouldn’t let him go so easily. Out with the hairdryer!

Dalyra: You were never the sharpest tool in the shed.
Edward: Omg Mom, just help me, okay?

As soon as he was unfrozen enough to get up, he passed out in exhaustion and right back on the ground.

Dalyra: Are you fucking kidding me?

THEN, when he woke up, he pissed himself.

Dalyra: Seriously, Edward?
Edward: I was frozen for HOURS! ALL my needs are in the red.

The shame of peeing himself right beside his mother warmed him up a little, enough to not be blue for about five seconds.

Dalyra: Then YOU go to bed. I’m not going to read you a story like when you were younger.
Edward: Yes Mom.

Dalyra’s rescue mission took place when she was planning to go to bed. She passed out too.

Edward: That’s what you get for never ever reading me a story anyway.

Even though he was told to go to bed, he silently observed his mother as she slept on the frozen lawn.

Edward: Can’t let one of my friends down.

Soon enough she woke up and they both went inside. Edward opted for a warm shower.

Edward: Uh, I’d like to have a private shower, please.
Ethan: I need to pee. Go away.

They will have to fight for the bathroom. Ethan seems to have higher authority.

Edward: But I almost froze to death braving the Pass of Caradrhas’s winter winds…
Ethan: You mean you tried sneaking into my place. Get out.

Sadly for Edward, he can’t use the other bathroom because it’s also occupied.

Elrath: I have no idea where my perfect eyebrows went on a stroll at, but I’m still flawless.

Elvis is ALSO developping a passion for hot dogs.

Elvis: Those are tofu dogs. We all know they put alien fat in regular hot dogs.

Edward found one of the other bathrooms, showered, and went into his bedroom.

Edward: How am I supposed to sleep with such a creeper watching over me?

Creeper in question is Ethan, who wanted to offer his sibling some mushrooms to warm him up.

Ethan: Your skintone matches your bedroom though. Cool.
Edward: I love you, but can you PLEASE fuck off as I am still trying to not DIE!

The next morning starts with confirmation that Edward managed to nurse himself back to life.

Edward: Dad, we’re all used to it by now. Not much sense of adventure to it anymore.

Dalyra wanted to bond with Elrath, but her old age really affects her vision.

Elrath: That’s close enough I think… I’d hate to have to hire body guards to protect myself from my own mother.

This lovely Sunday starts with the two lady teens exchanging a few words.

Elika: So, do you put red on your canvas first because it reminds you of blood?
Eve: Mainly because it reminds me of ketchup, actually.

Edward tried to preserve his friendship with his dad, who seemed less willing.

Edward: Father, can you teach me a song from where you’re from?
Gan: Where I’m from? What does that even mean, you racist fuck?
Edward: Uh Dad…?

Elika wanted some more artsy type conversations so she went to her brother.

Elrath: Wait up, I have to take a pose.
Elika: Do you really have to assume you’re the piece of art I want to discuss?

Once the bubble in his brain passed, Elrath was more than happy to talk about sculpting.

Elika:  Do you think the Venus is missing her arms because the life model herself didn’t have any?
Elrath: I think the sculptor just wanted to avoid having to shape realistic hands. Lazy.

Around lunch, Ethan got a phonecall from an old lady at the other end of town.

Ethan: The power button should be the round one on the computer… …No, that’s the O on your keyboard… No, you don’t need to go get your keys..

Fiddling with alchemy, Dalyra found out it had side effects.

Dalyra: That’s…new.

Rather than look for a cure, she played video games with Elvis.

Elvis: What the heck… Promise me you’ll never eat frog legs after that… What if it was yours?

Gan got up from his nap and immediately picked a fight with his son.

Gan: You’re about as creepy looking with your stupid makeup.
Elvis: It’s my CLAN MARKINGS!

Dalyra interrupted the two to prevent any escalation and to require Gan’s assistance.

Dalyra: So a kiss is supposed to cure me. You don’t have to use tongue.

Gan doesn’t seem fond of the idea, so he kissed her on the cheek.

Elvis: “Wow, he’s so overdramatic.”

This is what you get when you don’t go all the way.

Gan: Maybe we should have used tongue?

Their frog tongues would not break the spell, but their love is just as strong.

Dalyra: Oh, this is so exotic!

While the frogs croak their passion to one another, Elika decided to have her birthday.

Elika: The sooner the better. Then I can get out of here. Maybe.

That would be assuming she doesn’t win the heir poll, considering her pretty face.

Dalyra: Don’t mind us, just going to enjoy some frog woohoo.
Elika: I did not need to know that, Mom.

Elika rolled Vegetarian to complete her trait set. She must have heard Elvis and realized she didn’t want to eat a piece of her mother.

Elika: You really can’t not take a pose for two seconds, can you?
Elrath: *Happy anime grin*

Once he was done posing, he had to defend himself, naturally after walking to the other end of the table.

Elrath: What about you, huh? Always pretending to be tough but we all know you’re a little wimp inside!
Elika: Rude! That’s just how I am.
Elrath: Well I happen to be born for greatness.

After frog woohoo, Dalyra headed to the store to buy ingredients.

Dalyra: I didn’t get my celebrity discount. I don’t understand why they didn’t recognize me.

Back home, she hogged the alchemy station again, this time creating a cure since kisses and woohoos didn’t help.

After all, there is only a few days before heirship is passed, after which she would be stuck as a frog for a long time.

She was successful in her mixing. She used it on herself right away.

Dalyra: Feels tingly.

Back to normal, she cared for the last potato plant.

Gan would have to wait to be home from work for his own cure.

Back from school, studious Eve tackles her homework in Elrath’s bedroom.

Eve: I don’t have a desk in my own room. Besides, he no longer gets homework.

Much less productive Elika has been napping almost all day.

Playing video games all night does that to people.

Elvis also chose to do his homework, but chose a much less comfortable spot for it.

Elvis: Why do I have to study human history? Who cares?

A deer came for some reconnaissance on the front lawn.

Deer: Area is not safe, I can hear a giant frog croaking. Do not engage!

The giant frog is home but Dalyra is sleeping,so he gets to be stuck like this longer.

Gan: I wonder if the spa offers frog-only facials?

The two elder brothers returned to their roots, in the very forgotten nursery.

Ethan: Shake that ass, brother!

Elrath, with a smug face on his face, headed for his own space to break it down.

Ethan: Rock it, man!

So he rocked it.

Elrath: What?

The brothers rocked the night away in their own ways.

Ethan: Quality time, oh yes. And in a day I find out who my dad is.
Elrath: Good for you. I hope for you it isn’t Gan. He sucks.

Whereas the sisters had more of an awkward time.

Elika: What the heck, when did you get in here?
Eve: Last night. I drew something for you so you can pretend you did something with your life.

Morning came, and Gan was still waiting for Dalyra to wake up and cure him.

Gan: Curse her! How long does one need to sleep?

Not as long as he thinks, as she is simply admiring her collection, taking her sweet time.

Dalyra: Which one should I break on Gan’s head next time he puts his hat on?

When she finally got out, the sight of him was too much.

Dalyra: But how could you possibly wear your hat with such a huge and hideous head?
Gan: I’m sorry, who’s hideous now?

She cured him, and he showed nearly no gratitude.

Gan: You’re lucky I find old ladies with saggy butts attractive or I’d not be very happy with how you treat me.
Dalyra: You better not complain or I’ll throw you in the trash.

Soon enough, it’s the twins-not-twins’ birthday.

Eve: Are you ready, Edward? We go together.

People came and naturally, Edward’s brain was to slow to catch on to what Eve said.

Edward: Ladies first.

Eve’s cake started a fire, and Edward started wishing on stuff.

Edward: I wish to never be cold again.

Granted.

Ethan: Come on Edward, what the heck are you doing?

Celebrating of course, and having a lot too much faith in his family to put him out.

Edward: I’ve defenitely lost the frostbite now.

So it’s time for some sparkles, yeah?

Elika: This isn’t the time! There’s already enough light in this room!

While Ethan bravely puts the fire out, everybody else panicks.

Oh, and Edward is still on fire.

Totally oblivious to it, he grabs himself a piece of cake.

Elika: Are you aware your butt is on fire?

No, no he is not. Both Dalyra and the firefighter are waiting to put him out.

Dalyra: Son, are you still going through with your death wish?
Edward: But mom, this cake is delicious, you should try it.

As soon as he was done with his cake, he ran faster than one would think beside the table, and burnt to a pile of ash.

Congratulations, Edward.

The birthday cheers that had changed into fire panic now mutated into cacophonous sobs.

Elvis: I never thought humans could burn up so fast!

Grimmy appeared in a puff of smoke, just to add to the irony.

Elika: I didn’t want to win over Edward that easily. Now what does it prove?

Naturally, Edward begged for his life since he never did anything significant.

Grimmy: Dude, you chose cake over life. Suck on it.

Then, as everyone cried their hearts out, he laughed at them.

Grimmy: Haha, she has the same hair he died with.

Yes, everybody in town ages with that hair!

As her final trait, Eve rolled Frugal. Her makeover was apparently unimportant but is similar to how she was as a teen.

As for Edward, he’s DEAD like a stooge.

He however rolled Great Kisser. Too bad it’s hard to kiss anything when you’re not material anymore.

A quick look at how he would be if he wasn’t a ghost.

BUT HE’S DEAD, BECAUSE CAKE>LIFE.

This is how this generation ends, folks… This put me in disarray for a while since I had no idea what to do about the poll. Turns out it’s somewhat of a luck because I had no inspiration to dress someone in grey…

However, Edward will still be elligible for the heir poll (upcoming shortly). He will remain a ghost wether he wins it or not.

4.12- Fish Story

Okay, this post, then about two more updates, and the poll is up! I have all the pictures, I just need to string them together. This means about one birthday per chapter. However, this is the time my sims finally decided to stop standing around aimlessly (most of the time), so other things also happen.

To start off, Dalyra was invited to a costume party by one of her siblings and decided to go with her kids and husband. Ethan stayed home like a sad panda.

Damien: Boo! Costume parties suck. My nephew sucks too.

Here is a glimpse at most costumes people picked.

Left to right, Eve is a bunny, Gan a rockstar, Elvis a thief, Dalyra a princess, Damien a firefighter, Elika a diver, random dude no-one knows, Edward as an ugly clown, Elrath as a thief too, and finally in the back, Drake as a bulter.

Dalyra headed inside and beelined for the drinks prepared by Daenerys.

Drake: You sure you want to drink that crap?
Dalyra: Yup.

She did and it immediatly spawned ideas of dancing like a goof all night. Daenerys the maid joined in.

Daenerys: That juice really pops your brain out, doesn’t it?

Soon enough, Edward joined in, unded Eve and Mr. Hotdog’s watchful eye (I don’t remember who the hot dog is…).

Daisha the diver with the wrong haircut prepares some waffles for the group in the background.

The party is going strong inside, but Elvis prefers to play with his Imaginary Friend outside.

Elvis: There could be alien pieces in those waffles.

The dance was interrupted when Daenerys badly required Dalyra’s autograph…

Dalyra: “To Daenerys, whom I love like a sister, because she IS my sister. Dumbass.”

Elika also preferred to stay away from the action to watch and old horror movie.

Why she chose the neckpain-inducing chair over the perfectly placed couch is a mystery.

Elrath joined Elika into her solitude to play some guitar.

Elika: Shut up man, I’m trying to watch this movie…

Daisha’s waffles turned out burnt, or maybe she did it on purpose since she likes gross food anyway.

Drake: I won’t let her have all the food. I’ll pretend I love them.

He sat down next to her while she gulped the food down and started talking to create a diversion as to why he isn’t doing the same.

Drake: Those waffles are grandma’s recipe, isn’t it? I could never resist them.

Since the party started to die down because there is nothing else to do than dance, Dalyra went for another drink.

Eve: Aren’t you afraid of doing something embarassing?

Dalyra is past being afraid of anything, and Gan is taking the bait.

Damien: Whoa there, you two. I think it’s time you bring her back home, Ganny-boy.

He brought everyone back home, except for Elika. She got abducted right as they were all leaving.

Elika: Wait for me! Don’t just go, you idiots!

This caused her to be “out after curfew” even though she’s only one block from home.

Police Officer: Aha, young criminal in the making I see. Not on MY watch.
Elika: We’ll see about that, welp.

Dalyra waited for her on the doorstep to scold her on her behavior.

Dalyra: How dare you come home so late?
Elika: But Mom, we were at a party, I got abducted, and you’re drunk.
Dalyra: No, you’re drunk!

Still hungover the next morning, Dalyra attended Ethan’s graduation anyway.

That somewhat stylish lady is Lucia Alto, Blake’s daughter. YOU SHOULD BE DEAD BY NOW!

Ethan didn’t get any special title but he got his diploma on basement dwelling.

Dalyra: Ty Wan is crying. And he has ugly hair.(Evelynn Wan -Pauline’s daughter-, really named her son Ty…)

Fast foward a little, the teens went to prom. Nothing interesting happened except this.

WHAT IS WITH MEN HAVING THAT HAIR ALL THE TIME?

While the teens were partying for a second night in a row, Dalyra fixed the teleporter under Elvis’s not so attentive supervision.

Elvis: Soon, Buddy, you and I will go back home.

Elrath got abducted right back from prom.

Elrath: Some old pervy alien did things to my perfect star body.

All this time, Ethan is just minding his own business, while ghosts follow him about.

Clyde: Hey son, what’s up?
Bellatrix: He’s not your son, honey, he’s zzZzzz…

Dalyra put herself to work, hoping to find a cure for Daenerys’s drugs still having increasing effects on her.

Dalyra: Let’sh shee here. Three shpoonfuls of shugar. Sheems shushpichioush.

What’s suspicious is Edward hurting Elvis even though he claims to be his friend.

Elvis: Owie, Ed. That was in my soccer balls.
Edward: Have to toughen you up somehow.

Elrath FINALLY found the drum set that has been hidden in his bedroom for so long.

Elrath: I heard girls always prefer the drummer over the other band members.

Jenn coming in holding food? Must be a party.

Jenn: Not making the same mistake twice. Never bringing the cake again. Suck it.

It’s Dalyra’s birthday! First time the torch-holder is an elder while still controlable. This is what happens when the eldest gets elected heir.

Everyone is cheering, except for Daenerys, because Dalyra is no longer drugged. It also appears my simself is pregnant.

A wild Ethan appeared at Dalyra’s birthday, grinning like an idiot at being allowed inside the house.

All due to Gan being at work during the party and he could easily pretend to be a guest otherwise.

Dalyra aged up into a grouchy old lady, and her buns dropped a little.

Dante: Omg, how gross. Such a saggy butt.
Dalyra: Gee, need I remind you that you’re next in three days?

While Daryl prayed to get a picture of oh so famous Dalyra, Samali exchanged tips about cooking with her.

All while holding an invisible plate.

Dalyra gave in to Daryl’s pressing demands.

Samali: Why are you famous anyway?
Dalyra: Being the Grand Chess Master’s Holy potato relic daughter, apparently. *poses*

They then goofed off together because Dalyra is no snob about her fame.

Dalyra: And my biggest fans are my siblings…who are also his kids but I’m just more awesome.

Meanwhile, Ethan enjoyed a normal human being’s life. Elrath seems mildly frustrated.

Elrath: I’m the eldest inside, wtf?

The real eldest then expressed his gratitute to the real lord of this legacy for letting him inside.

Ethan: This is awesome, though I do miss the mold of the crypt. So many more mushrooms to study.

Uh oh, guests are all gone and Gan made it home. Ethan is still in there.

Gan: Who the heck is this, Elrath? Your pervy stalker?
Elrath: He may or may not be your son.

Gan was a first confused by the truth.

Gan: How is it possible? I’ve only ever inserted my wee wee in your mother. She especially likes it when I-
Elrath: Wow, I do not want those details. Gross.
Gan: Aliens must have stolen my seed and planted it in another woman then.

Gan is now convinced he has an illegitimate son, so Dalyra’s secret is still safe.

Gan: I love my long-lost son. So sad he’s trying to kill himself right now.

He thought screaming his love was the best idea, especially if it involved making his other kids hate him more.

Gan: You suck compared to him, you’re a failure!
Ethan: Should I even say anything?

Probably not. Everybody should think about themselves first…Just like this.

Elika: I wish I had been the one locked up in the catacombs all my life.

Elrath, while he likes Ethan, can’t stand Gan a second and would do anything to make him suffer.

Elrath: Are you seriously that dense? He’s Mom’s son, we don’t know who the father is!

Gan did get mad, but he wouldn’t believe his son’s words.

Gan: That makes no sense. Where would he have been if not with his unknown mother? He is my son, wether you like it or not.
Elrath: You’re impossible. What do you think Private Carrots was guarding, huh?

He started to see the logic behind it, but he’d never admit to believing Elrath.

Gan: That doesn’t mean he’s not my son.
Elrath: He’s either yours or another scrub’s. Have fun munching on that thought.

With all the yelling going on, Elika retreated to her bedroom for some peace and quiet.

She’s truly hiding to pretend she’s tough when all that drama would get to her overemotional soul.

While everyone left for bed or other activities, Gan tried to calm down playing videogames.

Gan: What if Dalyra cheated on me? That’s the only reason she’d hide him, right?

He somehow managed to stay calm and positive.

Gan: I’ll just patiently wait for her to wake up. She’s got to have a good explanation. She loves me.

His patience lasted about five seconds.

Gan: Who sleeps for more than three minutes anyway? She must be doing it on purpose.

When she did get up, they immediately got into eachother’s face.

Gan: Who did you cheat on my with?
Dalyra: What? I never cheated on you, dimwit.
Gan: Then where the heck does Ethan come from?

Taking pity on her clueless husband, Dalyra took the time to explain to him how babies are made and how childbirth happens.

Dalyra: But I never cheated. I just polished a guy’s wand in his shower before I met you and then polished yours. But I raised Ethan as fatherless, I promise.

Gan thankfully believed the truth and their undying love was back to normal.

Gan: I like the idea of wand polishing in the shower.

So she decided to show him how it happened.

Dalyra: And then you have to jam your skull into mine. Yep, perfect.

Gan was so delighted by that discovery that he started to sing in the shower even after the water stopped running and Dalyra was gone.

Gan: MY WEE WEE IS SHINYYYYY! (I am pretty sure this is not how “Ping and his Checkers” go)

Dalyra came to tell him to settle down and force him to put some clothes back on.

Edward: I’m sorry, can I shower now? You guys are in the way.
Dalyra: I wouldn’t go in there if I were you.

Unaware of the spark he created between his mother and maybe father, Ethan happily made a salad in a proper and fully equipped kitchen.

All while wearing his protective mask as to avoid dropping face cells into the meal.

He sat down to eat and had his first conversation ever with Gan.

Gan: I have an idea. Why don’t we do a DNA fatherhood test?

Soon enough, Elrath joined them, with a sour look on his face just from realizing Gan still exists.

Gan: Oh, what a wonderful idea. Then, I can officially adopt you and we can go on hiking trips together.

Such cheeziness made Elrath piss himself.

Dalyra: Come on son, I can’t be cleaning 24/7 around here…

Elika is overly delighted at Elrath’s unpleasant dirtyness.

Elika: You can’t be a successful star if you smell like urine. His dreams are crushed. CRUSHED! HA!

After cleaning up his mess, Dalyra headed to the book store.

Dalyra: Where’s the section about reasons why my kids all suck?

Before the end, a few news from around town.

Samali now has a grandchild.

My simself gave birth.

What a wonderful and utterly beautiful name. It is…perfect. As I go and die of laughter in a corner, I promise you I’ll come back to life and update this legacy somewhat soonish.

Next time, the last two kids of this generation age up to young adult, but many other weird odd events will occur.
