The Atwood DITFT: Generation 5, Chapter 4

[roxmorgirl]

Hi again guys! Despite how much Sims 4 I've been playing lately, I did find the time to make a chapter of the Atwoods for you all! (And man, going back to 3, with all my mods and CC and expansion packs, there was SO MUCH more lag/load times/etc... I know 4 will become bogged down that way eventually, but damn if it isn't nice to have a Sims game

Oh my god Abby, I think this is one of the best chapters I've ever read

Wow well thank you so much! That really means a lot, I'm so glad you liked it. <3
I'm so proud of my baby Joey! She is really working toward getting over the stage fright. (I totally have stage fright myself, which is where that idea came from!) It was really hard to write Graham completely missing the event, because I really wanted him to be there for Joey. And he was trying to be there for her, just in a different way, that same night. But it didn't work out :(
I'm really glad you felt like the writing made up for the lack of sims. I just didn't want to deal with it when it was already lagging with only the 5! Not to mention making the sims, getting the mod... it felt like a lot of work lol. But I'm really happy it came across well in the story!
Yeah it's tough between the two of them. Joey is really angry and I think she's quite justified in being so. It's great that Graham has realized - though it may be too little too late with Joey. She's got a lot of anger in there to process.
I'm so happy you liked the band's banter <3 I am

I can't believe Graham is taking his first steps to recovering himself

It's a relief really - I don't like writing sad Graham, and I'm ready for him to have some happier times! Although there's a pretty dang long road ahead for him on that front

Why are you doing this to me?
Ugh I was waiting for Graham to realize, to rush out and meet her there or SOMETHING! I just kept waiting and hoping and when i realized it wasn't going to happen my heart broke.

"He almost felt like crying. You made that up, he reminded himself."
He is such a sad character, not in his emotional state more like just his entire being is *sad*. This chapter was amazing, i agree with Carys that it was one of the best if not the best. it hurt to read but that's good because it means the writing and story telling was on point.
I can already see what sort of future Joey will have with a foundation like this and I can't wait to see how you make it all play out. it is such a shame that once he was trying he inadvertently ruined everything :(

We all take crappy pictures sometimes lol, with this game it's sometimes impossible to get across what we are writing into a picture and there are too many pictures to photoshop them all into perfection :)

I'm sorry D: If it makes you feel better it was hard to write it too
