Previously: Zephyrus and Lenina got married and moved out. Clarisse and Nix also got married. Remember gave birth to Henry, and Clarisse gave birth to Dallas. Remember got pregnant again. Felix was cute. I think that's about it?
We begin the update with some cuteness.
Henry: I love you, Daddy.
Alex: I love you too.
Remember: Come on, Dallas! You can do it!
Re, you know that’s not your child, right?
Anyway, it’s Henry’s birthday! Remember clearly chose the best possible outfit for the occasion.
Henry just cannot handle the excitement of his birthday.
Yep, that’s hot.
Told you he couldn’t handle the excitement.
Anyway, here’s his makeover. Ignore the noxious fumes. He rolled vegetarian.
Felix: I didn’t get a cake on my birthday.
Next time, honey. Next time. Maybe.
I got this notification during the party. Yay, babies!
Henry: Hmm, yes. Politics. The stock market and such. Indeed.
Felix: These muffins smell like cold hard cash.
Felix: Henry! Bake faster! We can’t keep up with the demand at this rate!
Felix is a cruel taskmaster.
Henry: No one’s buying the muffins, Felix.
Henry: Ah, yes. Look at this long line of hungry customers.
Felix: Maybe we’d make more money fishing.
I’m not sure where that slip ‘n slide came from. It was in something I downloaded but idk. Anyway, whatever.
WAIT… NO DON’T
Eliot: This is an interesting feeling.
Grim: I’m in a hurry, so can you just get in the grave and not make a fuss?
Eliot: Sweet, I got an obelisk.
Eliot: Wait - none of my family’s here! Can I at least wait until they say goodbye?
Grim: What are you talking about? You’ve got this green guy over here.
Eliot: Fine… I wouldn’t want them to be in more pain than necessary. Goodbye, Nix. Let’s do this thing, Grim.
After they disappeared, Nix passed out. Twice.
I didn’t take any other pictures of everyone crying because it was just too depressing. I mean, I had been expecting it for a while. She was really old. But it’s still really sad. :’(
Anyway, Re’s spending this pregnancy exercising too.
Hal! <3
Alex grieves in a healthy way: by eating cake outside at 3 AM.
Dallas, you’d better be glad you’re cute, because you are annoying.
Hal kind of hung out in the boys’ room for a while, and then disappeared.
Hehe, Alex, I love you.
Remember: This pregnancy thing sure is rough on my back.
Not sure giving our money to the less fortunate is going to help your back, but whatever makes you feel better.
Henry misses the bus all the time.
Clarisse: Can you say “chemtrails”?
Dallas: Mommy weird…
This is, like, the fifth maid we’ve had to fire.
Remember went into labor in the bathroom. I just kind of thought of that “I Didn’t Know I Was Pregnant” show. Re, don’t have your baby in the toilet.
A GIRL. This is
Desdemona (and we’ll call her Mona, because I’m not an asshole). She’s easily impressed and artistic.
:3
Less crazy, more baby raising, Clarisse.
DALLAS STOP CRYING OR I WILL PUT YOU IN YOUR CRIB UNTIL YOUR BIRTHDAY
LOL, Domingo.
Desdemona: What’s this bitch talking about?
You are cute.
Clarisse was always in the red or orange range after Eliot died, and I finally remembered that I’d gotten that Moodlet thing. Nix found it and decided he’d make his wife feel better.
Clarisse: What are you doing…?
Clarisse: Hey, I feel much better now.
Clarisse: I don’t know what kind of alien technology that was-
Nix: It’s… just a thing I found lying around the house.
Clarisse: Tell your people I said thank you.
STOP MAKING OUT AND WATCH YOUR CHILD.
What exactly do you think happened to the sink in the five minutes you were out of the bathroom, Nix?
Henry: So, you like the outdoors, right? Sunsets and stuff?
Felix: …
Henry: Ponds? Lakes? Come on, Felix, I can’t have a conversation with myself.
Henry: Why do I need to do math anyway? Famous musicians don’t need math…
You’d be surprised, Henry.
Felix: Math… so… fascinating.
As soon as the mourning moodlets went away, Nix went to mourn at Eliot’s grave. :c Poor baby.
Clarisse ran into a very pregnant Veruca at the pool. I was hoping Cael and Lorie would be with her, but oh well.
Clarisse: It’s trying to tell me something, I know it.
Remember’s the big spoon. Of course she is.
More spare babies, hehehehe.
Dallas got to age up in his room because no one would take him to the cake, for some reason. Whatever.
Sigh.
Better. He rolled Perfectionist. His features are kind of awkward, but I like his face anyway. I’m pretty certain that’s Clarisse’s nose. I wanna see how he grows into them.
Juice is not a meal, Dallas.
Look, he’s cute, I swear.
It looks like Dallas is going to be carrying on the Rosewater chess-playing tradition.
There was an accident at the science facility, apparently, and Alex got singed. How unfortunate. I mean, I suppose we should be grateful there was no city-wide disaster, at least.
Alex goes to call a long-lost cousin.
Alex: Hey, Bridget, I know I wasn’t nice to you when I was a kid… but Clarisse wants to talk to you for some reason. Something about her job, I don’t know.
Bridget: Why can’t she call me? I’m hanging up, asshole.
Dallas: Uncle Alex, can you talk on the phone somewhere else?
Alex: Well fine, be that way.
Dallas: No, really, you smell like someone set a stray dog on fire.
Gratuitous toddler spam!
Dallas: Don’t you think you’re a little too young to decide to be a vegetarian? I’m just concerned about your health is all…
Henry: Is this bitch for real?
Now that both of their children are self-sufficient, Clarisse and Nix can do what they truly want to do.
Which is each other.
I feel like I only take pictures of Re teaching toddler skills, but other people do it! I swear!
We will now end this update awkwardly with Nix playing guitar in the park.
Next time: The Rosewaters are moving!
