FINALLY. Next generation. That is all I have to say.
Just remember, we have tons of baby animals this update. Expect pictures of adorable pets doing adorable things on occasion.
Everybody is instantly taken with all of the puppies and the kittens. If I had known the Holidays would be so good with pets, I might've adopted some sooner.
Although it gets to the point where everybody stops what they should be doing just to go play with one of them.
In other news, SOMEONE FINALLY MADE IT TO MAD SCIENTIST. Took Castor long enough. Was there a short supply on human test subjects? Was that what hindered your promotion?
Adrienne, you are already on my suspicious list what with your heart-farting over every guy who is not Huevos. >:T Now you burn food in the microwave. Don't make me regret marrying you into this family!
As punishment, she has to clean up after the puppies bwahahahahaha
I'm trying to get a werewolf in the family just to prove I can without cheating. So far it's taking forever to get Adrienne's relationship with the wolves up past head petting. She taught the bastard to roll over and they're still at 16, gadflammit.
Stop it, you two. Stooop iiit, you're just making it harder for me when you go. :<
Huevos, that is not a Jumbok altar, that is your backyard fountain.
Huevos: Bwahahahahaaaa my cheeky personality will make me the envy of my future co-stars!
Gaston won't stop terrorizing the kittens, true to his namesake as a Disney bully.
Nooooo oooone BARKS like Gaston
Leaves poo MARKS like Gaston
No one's dog house is plush, blue and DARK like Gaston's
Gaston: I'm especially good at FUUUR SHEDDIIIING
Ten bones for Gaston
... I swear, I'll try to contain my giant inner Disney nerd from now on.
They are the most adorable elders ever. Look at them, standing in their fancypants garden just enjoying the fall day. I hope I can live this comfortably in my golden years. :]
I kept trying to find the Show Business career for Huevos and then I realized he doesn't have a college degree, so it won't show up. WHOOPS.
Well, his life will have just have to be televised for us real people to watch instead. He can dedicate his life to raising an army of pets to do his bidding.
The Holidays have a portrait of Brazilian model Marlon Teixeira in one of their bathrooms. He makes that face at them while they're bathing, it's great.
Sinéad: I APPROVE OF THIS DELECTABLE YOUNG THING ON MY WALL.
She seriously goes to the bathroom just to stare at it and whoop her approval every single day. Hey, if her boyfriend can have inappropriate thoughts about their daughter-in-law and their son, she can have inappropriate thoughts about a model she'll never meet.
Nooooo Ediiiiith :(
Grimm: You have lived for far too long, Missy!
Edith: Whoah, simmer down there! What is your problem? It's not like anyone's dying!
... *SOB*
Huevos is just appalled, APPALLED that his grandmother is kicking the bucket. I think he was under the impression that she was going to live forever.
Sinéad: WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP DYING WHEN I'M AT WOOOOOORK DX
Huevos+Brendan: A BOOHOOHOOHOOOOO
Sinéad: Suck it up! I had the decency to cry in private! >(
So yeah, Edith has gone up to meet Valentine in Sim Heaven. Which means we now have room to procreate, so I sent Huevos and Adrienne off to their bedroom. He's got his predatory sperminating face on, I think we're good to go.
Adrienne: HOOOORK
Spermination complete!
She gained weight right after vomiting, which is what Sim biology decides is correct.. But lots of stuff was delayed until Edith died apparently. She technically has no fitness points after snarfing down food 24 hours during their vacation.
Castor: O HAI HONEY CHECK OUT THIS SEASHELL I DUG UP ON OUR BEACH VACATION IT IS THE BEE'S KNEES
Brendan: It's a nice shell, dear.
Castor: LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT HOW I FOUND IT
Brendan: No that's oka-
Castor: IT ALL STARTED...
He called him over three times in a row just to share. That shell better be made out of diamonds or something to be worth that much description.
Terrell's ghost: BOO
Adrienne: OHMAGOD YOU'RE TERRELL HOLIDAY I'M STILL SUCH A BIG FAN OF YOUR BAND *plus plus* 8D
Pfffft. Hey, that's the appropriate response, it's Terrell.
Adrienne: And he's still smokiiiin'!
For fuck's sake, Adrienne. Do I have to add spectrophilia to your list of weird-ass family attractions?
Adrienne: *POP* Heavens to Murgatroyd!
What do you mean having the pregnant Sim interact with a wolf instead of sleeping is a bad idea?
All of the pets except Suzi grew up! And as adorable as they are, it's time to ship them off to the pound where they will stay foreeever and eeever until I re-adopt them.
Sinéad, the pound cop is coming.
Sinéad: TEEHEE I LOVE YOU ALL!
Sinéad: *Sob* Nooooo don't take my babiiiiiiessss!
:(
She starts a fire in protest.
Sinéad: DOWN WITH THE POUND! DOWN WITH THE POUND!
Huevos, aren't you going to do anything to put out the fire your senile mother started? No? You're just going to sit and play chess like you did for all of your childhoohd?
... K then. where are your cojones, man
And there's Suzi, all grown up. Off she goes to the pound!
YOU ARE DELIBERATELY DOING THIS, AREN'T YOU?
Ooooh, babies? I shall keep my disapproval in check for the moment.
It's a boy! Adrienne's skin, Huevos' eyes, both parents' hair. Generation 5 is based off of May Day, which is kind of a vague holiday as far as I'm concerned, based on pagan holidays ushering the end of spring and the coming of summer. So this little guy is named Beltane, after the Irish fertility festival May Day is kinda based off of among other things. Expect lots of children dressed up in floral patterns.
I plopped the child off on Huevos who's a Family Sim anyway so he's peeing himself in excitement. Adrienne rolled the want to go downtown and after having her outside playing with a wolf for most of her pregnancy, I needed to get her aspiration back up.
Aw, shi-
Victor: O HAI SUPER HOT DAUGHTER-IN-LAW! IT'S BEEN FOREVER
Adrienne: OMG HEEEY I JUST POPPED OUT YOUR GRANDKID LITERALLY AN HOUR AGO
Both: OM NOM NOM NOM NOM
Uh...
Um.
Uh...
Can't say I'm surprised but still
Photobooth sex is the classiest sex, amirite?
Huevos: Hi Dad! So guess what, you have a grandson! :D I just feel that now that I'm a father myself, we should try to reconnect because you're not so bad!
Y'know what, let's just leave it at that for now.
I'd be lying if I said that this didn't amuse me just a tiny bit.
Let's distract him with his actual baby, y/y?
Everyone keeps rolling wants to hold Beltane and feed him. Sinéad often gets there before anyone else.
Sinéad: Bitch, get your own grandbabies.
Huevos: Hello, son! I was just informed that you're about to have a baby brother or sister! Isn't that exciting? 8D
HAHAHAHAHAHA ohboi
Just in case you were in doubt, Adrienne is indeed pregnant. Thanks a lot, now we have less room for legitimate heir babies. >:T
QUICK, LET'S DISTRACT EVERYONE FROM THE IMPENDING DRAMA WITH MORE PETS
So Beltane's infancy was uneventful. He was always being fed and changed and stuff without me really paying attention, because everyone in this family is just ridiculously good with babies. Huh.
He looks like a little farmer, d'awwww. Also, DEM LIPS
Adrienne: Come on, sweetie! :D
Beltane: Is she serious :|
Beltane: There is nothing challenging about this walking.
She propped him up at once and he just started walking rightaways. I smell a genius in the making!
Beltane: What is this? Pink mush? Must I ingest it?
Beltane: Om nom nom
Beltane: I declare this mush to be...
Beltane: ... Piquant with a zesty aftertaste! It is to my liking!
Beltane: I AM IMPRISONED AMONG BEES AND SUNSHINE
Calm yo bib, son.
Beltane: Shoo, Grandmother. I must do my potty business alone.
Seriously, this kid learned all three skills in a day. I don't even know where these genius genes came from. :T
OHSHIT BASTARD BABY IS COMING OUT
Brendan + Castor: WHAT DO WE DO WE ARE NOT READY FOR THISSSS
Huevos: OK, calm down. You're about to be a father for the second time. Just breathe, Huevos. Breaaaaathe.
Boy does not check his family tree much, does he?
The Y chromosomes are flying everywhere this update! This is Vic (SUBTLE, AMIRITE?). Adrienne's skintone and hair, and Victor's (and thus Huevos') eyes. So, pretty much just like Beltane.
Castor: YAAAY NEW BABY
Adrienne: Yes... new... baby... Who is definitely... my handsome husband's child... yup. Absolutely.
Hahahahaha. Oh boy, I love this game. I've got a spare update coming right up because I couldn't bare to see Brendan and Castor not get any grandbabies.
Spare update #1 can now be found:
