Hello! Told you I wouldn't disappear. Actually, I have gotten some playing in, just not much in the way of writing or picture editing. To tide you over until then, have a Spare Update! Of course, in Gen 2, there's only one spare. River.
And so, on we go!
Cute wedding, ahoy!
A bit spoilery here, since Hex is a teen in this picture, and that little girl over there is Lucie as a child, but hey, it's not like it's a huge surprise...
Random Townie: Woohoo! Now where's the cake?
Thomas and Teen!Charlotte: *just walks the fuck out of their aunt River's wedding*
Charming! >_<
Please don't suffocate him before you make babies!
Oooohhh...ahhhhh...
The church is by
slyndsey, by the way. It's the church from her 'hood, Antogo.
Since I still can't manage the timing of a honeymoon, this is technically just a "vacation".
Seriously, I tried to get Paragon to book a honeymoon, but instead of waiting until after the wedding, they just went immediately. What am I doing wrong, here? Are they supposed to call for the honeymoon in the middle of the wedding or something? Or is my game just shitting itself per usual?
As I look on this, I think... "I need to make over the Maxis lots one day."
Anyway, River and Paragon check into some nice little bungalows right on the beach in Twikiki.
Grass Skirt Man: Hang loose, baby!
River: Piss. Off.
(And yet, that fucking hand gesture still manages to infect this legacy.)
Yes, Mr. Grass Skirt Man. Don't mind the couple on their honeymoon, trying to have some alone time. You just sit there and make sand castles in the middle of them. NO PROBLEM AT ALL! ...fucker.
Well, that's what you get for leaving your pale ass out there for so long...
It would be kind of a dick move just to leave it, wouldn't it?
Yay, money!
Anyway, back to honeymoon spam...
And...it's over!
River and Paragon brought home a little souvenir from the trip.
Moving on...
And then...a boy! Without green skin! His name is Corbin Oliver, and he has his dad's skin and hair and his mom's eyes.
(This means my genetics have been sufficiently tweaked! Yay! With how dominant they made custom skins, River and Simon's genetics were threatening to overwhelm the entire legacy. So I did a bit of tweaking and voila! Though Simon's kids still all ended up with green skin. Ah well. At least one of them doesn't have black hair.)
Working off the baby weight...
Birthday time!
Corbin with a bit of a makeover. He looked too cute in the clothes, so I kept them.
And, of course, whenever the family gets together, they MUST smustle.
But where's Hex?
...I love you.
I swear, Hex is earning some serious heir points by autonomously taking care of his baby cousin while everyone's partying.
I don't even think he's a Family sim. I can't remember, but I seem to recall he's...Popularity, maybe? I'm too lazy to look it up right now.
Stop being so cute and give your siblings a chance, damn it!
Speaking of cute...
*dies*
Great, now can you get off that thing?
And then...this happened:
How nice of you, Paragon. Your wife just got anally probed by aliens, and you care more about how fucking loud the spaceship is.
This is Svetlana. She is the best nanny ever.
Feeds Corbin when he's hungry and not when he's shit himself...
Cleans instead of watching TV all day...
And gives Corbin lots of love and affection.
I'm probably jinxing this, but NEVER LEAVE US, SVETLANA!
(On the down side, god DAMN am I getting sick of hair that isn't properly attached to the sim's head.)
River still loves her grilled cheese, and now that the aliens have inseminated her, it's all she craves.
Who needs a maid when you have Svetlana the Amazing as a nanny?
Corbin as a child. <3 That faaaaaace!
It's been a while since I've had a stereotypical "birth in the bathroom" scene...
It's...a clone of her mother. A girl named Rani.
I'm tempted to think that my multi-PT hack is broken or something, but I checked her DNA in SimPE and she does have alien DNA, it's just recessive. Huh. Oh well, maybe my tweaking worked a little too well.
And that's the end of the Spare Update. Tune in next time when I get back to the main household with birthdays galore, as the twins become children and the older siblings become teens!
