I put it off because I really don't want to kick Bruce & Dorcas out, you know? So I didn't. Um. Heh. Triple heir? I don't know. We'll see how things go. It certainly drags a generation out to do something so crazy insane, so I'll probably kick them out eventually, all spoused and be-kidded. Heh.
Last time Bruce snagged the first 3 loves requisite for her lifetime want, Dorcas met Lon (
madame_ugly) through the matchmaker and basically hit it off despite a disagreement over sodas and Georgianna, winner of our heir poll, was still a teenager, failing high school and looking flawless while doing so. Our founder, Eglantine (
simpurity) & her husband Bilbo (
katu_sims) lulled themselves into a cozy routine of classic dancing in their pajamas all over the place and being quietly sweet with each other, though this often led to neglected motives. I rolled the Repo-Man challenge shortly before the end of the update.
Bilbo and Bourbon invite you into this update by sizing each other up. ++
I kind of wanted to keep Aida around but she wanted to move out. Yeah.
Bruce had greeted Leythan here during her date with Aali Swamp and liked what she saw, so she invited him over to be Love #4.
It was successful.
Oh sweet! Lon Viking (
madame_ugly as mentioned above) actually got Eglantine's name right.
Maybe it's because they suddenly have THREE BOLTS, what the hell?
Dorcas evidently prefers the cheap TV I deleted to the flat screen one her honey Lon gave Eglantine. Whatever.
Eglantine and Bilbo, perpetually being romantic in their pjs by the ripening bills.
Dorcas and Lon are getting past their soda differences, whilst scarring our heiress.
I think Lon has been in love with Dorcas for a while, but she just fell for him.
Bruce has three bolts with him too. <.<
YAY! It's the manly man
cosmetical made from one of my briefs! I named him Harvard Cosmetical-Below. :D
Georgianna would like to announce that she is no longer failing, huzzah!
I can never GET Lon to come over by calling him, but Dorcas booty calls him almost every day to make up for it.
They shooed everyone into the bathroom. It was a mess.
Buffy Longmore (
stakeit_uk) came for Georgianna's birthday and I consider aging her up with, but don't because then I would only have two p_t teenagers left. I really really need to work on that. So. Georgianna's angry face and Bruce's weeping? I have no idea what they're happening for.
Whatever it was, it didn't interfere with good birthday cheer.
Rather than watch their youngest on her birthday, Bilbo & Eglantine decided to make the most of the fact that their bed isn't being used by Dorcas & Lon at the moment.
Oh hi Vlad! He shows up and comes on in all the time. It's kind of sweet. I wish Aida & Lydia-Damaris would, too.
Bruce is quite moody. Georgianna got legacy appropriate outerwear. So cheesy.
Oh look, Dorcas has been impregnated by Lon. Appropriate as she is Family, that she should procreate first of the three girls. Vlad is... getting high off the pink dust that's not there because he inhaled it?
Georgianna got a job in her chosen track her first day as an adult.
Bruce noticed that Dorcas had clearly been making the woohoo and congratulated her.
Georgianna called the matchmaker, while she was out waiting for her to show up, Huckleberry Yarn (
eleme/
yarnsim) walked by, so we greeted him to test those waters out.
She gave me that "can I keep him?" look. Well. You have one bolt. We're gonna blow some simoleons on a matchmaker, we'll see.
Meanwhile Bruce called Bingo up for a booty call.
Super-expensive date have to get breeding my sister got pregnant before me and she's not even heir please.
Eli Quagmeyer (
radiationpoison), made to order.
Never a dull moment, really. They hit it off super well.
See? I mean, I don't even know where to begin. Anyway, thank Bourbon for blocking this, really. I'd like them to do things in a slightly more traditional order, thank you very much.
There you go, first kiss first.
Now you can woohoo. *eyeroll*
Dorcas & Lon's sproglet is springing along.
Bilbo & Eglantine maintained a certain ignorable quaintness that lead to them dancing for HOURS and ignoring their motives, AGAIN.
Yes, yes.
Yeah, well, Bourbon never slept there anyway and I didn't see anyone cry over this.
New week, new challenge!
See, Bourbon doesn't need cat furniture, pfft. Dorcas tried to burn that since she feared it and failed.
Bruce feared getting rejected for a date, so I had her invite someone she barely knew on one. Zaphod Brilliantcat (
brilliantcat of course).
He said yes. I fail at failing. :)
Boy did he ever say yes.
So then she feared getting married to him. This could be fun!
Georgianna brought Mikalo Gionet (
jbruntz) home from work.
She feared getting rejected for giving a gift, so she gave Mikalo the dream date bouquet that Eli had given her.
Mikalo was thouroughly flattered. SIGH.
Meanwhile, Bruce invited Zaphod to move in.
Meanwhile ACR invited Georgianna and Mikalo to do this. WHAT?
Zaphod & Bruce fell in love (her 6th time) over a legitimate non-ACR woohoo.
Afterward in a flurry of confusion they became engaged.
They had delightfully both rolled the fear shortly beforehand.
Then came marriage.
Along with marriage fears I had locked. Phew.
Your anti-wish is my command, Brucey.
Dorcas went into labor in the bathroom, per usual.
Squid Banks! Son of Lon Viking (
madame_ugly) and Dorcas Banks. He has his Dad's red hair.
Lon continues to dodge Dorcas' calls.
Georgianna was afraid of becoming enemies with Eglantine, so Ventrilo-Fart to the rescue.
'cept not. Eglantine thought it was hilarious.
Georgianna's other fears involved Eli, so she invited him over and stole some of his seed.
Before he collapsed of some incurable disease on the lawn.
She also feared his zombie resurrection, so he got to join the household as one of the living dead.
He may be dressed as a paramedic, but that's a clever ruse to get Georgianna to accept his proposal, he was fired his first day. He's a pleasure sim, by the way.
And he has three bolts with both Bruce and Eglantine.
With Dorcas, however, he has anti-boltage, so he asked her on a date, a thing which he feared the rejection of.
Yes yes, the failure is coming right along, with a pop from Bruce.
Dorcas tried to burn those Toaster Pastries, but Bruce went and rescued them from the oven.
Bruce is being a cutie housewifey while Zaphod is being a churlish husband. So cute!
Successful failure! :D
Georgianna woke up to pop. Luckily she went right back to bed because...
WHAT THE WHAT?
Great. Oh, and hello Oddny Viking (
rustyrosesims) who came home from work with Zaphod.
Look at Bilbo's angry little old man fist shaking!
Eglantine proceeded to lecture Eli for ruining her marriage.
Unconvincing apologies ensued.
As well as maniacal laughter from Eli, and justifiable rage from Dorcas.
In the midst of it, a young Squid toddled.
The Banks and I decided to put him on potty training duty as we're all a bit miffed at him, except his fiancee Georgianna who remains oblivious to the rage that surrounds her.
Bruce's second pop.
Zaphod is also really pissed at Eglantine. Georgianna, so oblivious.
Zaphod is being pretty self-righteous for a romance sim. :\
Dorcas' ire I can totally get behind. Eli ruined her parents marriage and she's a family sim.
Squid starting throwing errors.
I think it was the changing tables fault. Zaphod would have happily powdered air forever while Squid floated outside if I hadn't canceled the action.
Then Dorcas handed Squid a bottle like he was on the floor while Zaphod was holding him. Outrageous!
Dorcas attacked Eli, but lost the fight.
Georgianna remains unaware of the turbulent household she's bringing this baby into.
Bruce is perfectly aware, but doesn't much care.
Far Banks! Son to Bruce and Zaphod (
brilliantcat) Banks, with Eglantine's hair!
This threw Zaphod over the edge.
Bruce also.
Leaving little Far on the snow covered pavement.
It's interesting seeing two sims interact with the shrink at once.
Yeeeeah. She's loco, Zaphod. You totally weren't doing that two seconds ago.
Insane passion!
A less blinky, more adorable dancy dance shot of little Squid.
Dorcas is always good for a date rejection.
Vlad's a helpful visiting uncle, much needed in the household full of strife and slapping and inept balcony birthing.
I wonder if it will ever cease.
Bruce is pained by memories of her own labor.
A girl. Very rosy cheeked little miss with her dad, Eli "the zombie homewrecker" Quagmeyer's (
radiationpoison) hair, named Maggie.
For a brief moment I thought I had quit without saving and loaded back up to make sure. I love how they're paused sometimes. Man. Zaphod is enjoying a tasty smell somewhere whilst holding an out of sight Far and Eglantine is turned towards him just so they look somewhat romantical while holding a plate of dishes. It would only be more perfect it Eli were thinking of brains. Good news: I had saved, yay!
