Build A City Challenge - Southernesse [Episode 4]
I discovered I was a round behind with one of my families, which means this is a huge entry. :P :Lots happened over at the Hargraves' !
A tired Bonnie slipping into bed next to Silas. I liked the lighting in this pic.
Charlotte, the evillest sprog, re-enacting the latest thriller she saw with her dolls, no doubt.
Another scenery shot I wanted to include simply because I like it.
Silas being a good daddy to Leah. Aww.
And finally, I get to show off some pics of The Dandelion, Silas' retro restaurant. Running restaurants is HARD, even with a full-cooking skill chef like Harlan, and even at level 8 with everything set to Very Expensive, I'm still not making a profit.
Creepy browless host is creepy. I hate that Uniform Assignment bug.
Harlan makes over 500 a day (no wonder I don't make a profit! But it constantly told me he was underpaid, so I had no choice but to keep giving him raises. Same goes for the waitress; in no other business have my employees basically demanded pay raises more than here.)
Fortunately, Silas also owns a grocery store which is more profitable, especially since I have a manager for it.
I saw this guy sneaking around my shop and thought "Crap! A burglar and I don't have alarms unlocked yet!" but nope, he was just here to shop, apparently. Still kept an eye on him though.
Then, as Silas was returning home, THIS happened.
He was mostly ok.
Leah, their youngest, learning a few skills.
And Silas messing around with the synthesizer.
Charlotte, who is clearly an aspiring Mad Scientist (she had 4 Logic skills as a toddler and throughout her childhood kept rolling wants for more. And she's a Science enthusiast to boot! Well, she certainly got a close encounter of the 3rd kind, but more on that later.)
Very fastidious...
And not at all patient.
Charlotte: "Seeing your sister grow up is such a BORE!"
Leah, as a child, post makeover.
Lawl.
Yet another "simply because I wanted to show it off" type picture :P
Hat and Apron Boy got a makeover, so here he is with the sisters and Adonai Thornton in the background.
Who's just as nice as Charlotte, by the way :P
Her "Do Not Want!" face amused me.
I had Silas cook a Baked Alaska because birthday cakes suck and...
It was teenager time for Charlotte!
In the meantime, Leah discovered her love of fish and water, and better still...
...the two combined!
Charlotte, on the other hand, travelled to the Science Hobby lot to mingle with fellow geeks
And even met one she liked! His name is Abraham Hawking, isn't that perfect?
She got a new telescope for her birthday which was put to much use, and not just for scientific purposes...
Later, I had her watch for UFOs (NOT summon aliens) and, well...this happened xD
Charlotte got probed XD Luckily for her she's a teenager, but I wouldn't exclude a future meeting with the Pollination Techs.
Not that it stopped her from jumping straight into bed with Abraham though :P
