Previously: Kristi passed away in a very glitched way. Sinclair and Illinois both became elders as well as grandparents. Liberty and Justice got into a sister fight and Galahad got told by his sister Pansy.
Despite being a coward, For some reason Liberty decided she wanted a tattoo.
Liberty: "This seemed like a much better idea in my head than in practice."
Since she was in the area, she decided to get a makeover too.
Stylist: "Well since you are about to start back to work after a very extended maternity leave, I think it's time you start acting your age a bit more."
Liberty: "I just got a tattoo."
Stylist: "Uhm, well, at least in clothing you can be grown up."
Liberty: "You! You're good!"
On her way home, Liberty ran into her sister-in-law Haddy. Apparently they are very good friends. (My game tells me all sorts of things I never knew before, like on the Parvenu family tree for instance, Kristi is a Father!)
Haddy: "Libbers! How good to see you! Why don't you stay and chat for a while? Take a break from those kids of yours. Make that brother of mine do some of the work!"
Liberty: "I guess I can stay a bit. Your mom likes to take care of the kids."
Haddy: "Which?"
Liberty: "Oh yeah I forgot you have two, Sinclair."
Galahad had other ideas about Liberty going back to work.
Liberty: "Mmm-mmm, I really appreciate that you want me, but I've had a long day and I'm so tired..."
Galahad: "Just give me five minutes."
Liberty: "Oh all right."
Fern likes the cakes that Illinois makes. She eats as much as she can despite the cake being on fire at all times.
Fern: "It only burns until it gets to your stomach. No biggie."
Liberty realized what had happened with Galahad.
Liberty: "That man tricked me into getting pregnant again! Oh my boss isn't going to like this.."
Her pregnancy hormones were flaring up again.
Liberty: "Oh what am I going to do? If I get fired I won't have a job and then I will have to rely on Galahad but what if he gets fired and we then have no income and we have to fire the maid and then the house gets piled up with trash and then killer flies manifest and they kill us all. I know it happens all the time! "
Downstairs Fern was silently having a birthday. Having to share with Dempster was a downer.
Fern: "Oh yes, very nice."
The Mars jaw runs strong in you little one.
Sinclair? Check. Birthday child? Check.
Sinclair: ".... I don't have anything to say anymore."
Dempster is an adorable little boy. He is almost identical to Eddie except for the eye color. He has brown eyes while Eddie has purple. Imagine I took a traits image. I believe he is an evil virtuoso, but don't hold me to that.
Fern offers Dempster some delicious looking birthday gruel.
Fern: "Here is some delicious food? I'm going to eat cake now."
Dempster was not amused.
Galahad: "I can't believe my little girl is so grown up now. It seems like yesterday you were just a little girl. I'm about to get emotional!"
Fern: "Dad, you are being disgusting. Go get some fresh air or something."
And so he did. He went to pick up the revenue from the locally owned Parvenu businesses. Outside he met Martha Bright. She was an eccentric resident who was frequently seen with no shoes.
Galahad: "I'm well on my way to being a doctor and I have no skeletons in my closet. Well, except maybe that one, but I was thinking since you are the town crazy and no one would believe you over me, how about we you know?"
Martha: "I don't know why you are talking to me."
Galahad: "Don't make me spell it out for you. I mean we could, you know, get friendly if you get what I mean?"
Martha: "I am not getting what you mean."
The girl looking petrified on the bench is the oldest sister of Liberty and Justice. Her name is July and coincidentally is best friends with Galahad as well as his co-worker.
July: (I know my brother-in-law isn't doing what I think..)
July: (He is doing what I think. Oh shii---)
Galahad: "Just one little hug?"
Martha: "Ew no you creep. Even loonies have taste!"
Galahad: "Oh, hi July. How long have you been there?"
July: "Quite a while."
Galahad: "Oh.."
Galahad: "So what did you see?"
July: "Everything."
Galahad: "Everything??"
Galahad: "Everything!"
Galahad: "I'll give you a hug if you don't tell Liberty, come here!"
July: "What is with you and hugs? Just stop already, you are being so weird."
Galahad: "I'm ... sorry. I think part of my Dad is trying to surface in my body. Won't you at least come over and say hi to Liberty? She's quite pregnant."
July: "I'd like that, but promise you keep your hands to yourself."
Galahad: "You have my word."
It had been ages since they last saw each other, but Liberty was very excited to see her sister.
Liberty: "Oh how long has it been now? How have you been?"
July: "Well, you have been busy! It's been long enough for you to have three kids and one more on the way!"
July: "Is this my little niece or nephew?"
Liberty: "Hopefully niece. Galahad wants a boy though."
July: "You better be a girl, you hear me! We don't want to make that daddy of yours happy at all."
Eddie and Dempster enjoy being together playing with dolls. They refuse to believe that dolls are just for girls.
Eddie: (right) "I get this one, you get that one."
Dempster: (left) "This one, o-tay?"
Eddie: "This one better than yours!"
Dempster: "Me want that one."
Eddie: "No, you get bad one."
Dempster: "No fair!"
Dempster will soon learn the ways of the sibling. Oldest gets the best always, no question.
Party time for Eddie! Martha showed up. Apparently, she was a huge Illinois fan.
Martha: "Illinois Parvenu is the fiercest old lady in all of Twinbrook. I will be like you someday!"
A whole crowd showed up for the event. For once, Illinois was on birthday duty.
Sinclair: "Birthdays from this angle are so much better. Pointing and laughing is the BEST!"
Libbers and Fern enjoy a bit of gossip in the above garage studio.
Fern: "So I heard that Dad's sister Pansy lost her boyfriend. No surprise really. If her personality is as bad as her face that is!"
Liberty: "Now dear you know that isn't appropriate. It's funny, but not appropriate."
Fern enjoyed teasing Dempster further.
Fern: "Does little Dem want Fern to take off his stinky diaper?"
Dempster: "Diaper dirty! Change, change!"
Fern: "Fern will do it, but it will cost you! When you get older you owe me $5.00."
Dempster: "Dem don't know? Okay?"
Fern: "Great!" (Bwahaha, kids!)
After school Fern brought home with her Mandrake Jericho (
nice_days). He was the class reject so he was a bit concerned with why Fern had invited him over.
Fern: "He's all mine now, ha ha ha!"
Mandrake: "...?"
Fern: "Nevermind."
Fern: "I was a bit concerned about you so I decided we should be friends! You always seem to be alone and that makes me sad."
Mandrake: "I'd rather be alone though."
Fern: "Don't be silly! Company is always better."
Mandrake: "I actually just came over to see if your Mom was at hot as everyone says. She is not disappoint."
Fern: "Am I disappoint?"
Mandrake: "Um, well, um, not really."
Fern: (Should I make the first move? Does he really not like me or is he just being difficult? Or maybe he just doesn't get my feelings?"
Mandrake: (This is why I hate people. Women are so complicated. I'd much rather be at home with just me and my paint brush making beautiful, beautiful art. Ah~~)
Fern: "Okay since you obviously aren't getting it, lets cuddle?"
Mandrake: "I am not sure how I am to respond. I have never had a member of the opposite (or even same) sex show interest in me before!"
Fern: "Just get over here!"
Mandrake: "Okay." (Holycrap where do I put my hands?! Do I touch her? Am I still a virgin? I will just put my hands on my knees and be respectful. Okay, good!)
Sinclair had other ideas.
Fern: "Grandma...."
Sinclair: "I think it is best the two of you separate. This is not becoming of such a young lady as yourself."
Mandrake: (I'm just going to sit here with my hands on my knees and not move an inch. This lady is not a force to be reckoned with.)
Fern: "Grandma... I think it's about time for you to go to bed?"
Mandrake: (She's killing me with her mind. I can feel invisible laser beams pouring into my skull at this very moment. MY ART WILL NEVER BE SHARED WITH THE WORLD!)
Sinclair: "Of all the boys, why this one?"
Fern: "Grandma, I heard about you when you were my age. You were in love with Uncle Jazz, weren't you? Mandrake is much more cleaned up that Uncle Jazz ever was!"
Sinclair: "We do NOT speak of things that happened when I was young and stupid! Being left by him was the best thing that ever happened to me!"
Fern: "Good, now that you remember what it is like to be a teenager leave me to my Mandrake."
Mandrake: (Girls may be complicated, but they feel so good. This is why we put up with them. I understand now.)
Fern was going to get what she wanted one way or another even if it meant wearing the pants.
Sinclair: "I wish I'd just die so I don't have to do this anymore."
Sensing the tension, the rest of the family decided it best to celebrate from the other side of the fence. Sinclair was a terrifying lady sometimes.
Mars Jaw. Check! She has purple eyes though! Moving along~~
Liberty went to a party hosted by Karst. While he was busy greeting guests and schmoozing, his youngest daughter Chanel pulled Liberty into the garage. They also were apparently good friends.
Chanel: "Auntie Libbers, I am so happy you could come! It's so hard to talk freely in the main house. Daddy has taught us that 'the small people are always listening' so we have to watch what we say, but we had this garage sound-proofed."
Liberty: "Karst sure is an eccentric old man sometimes."
Chanel: "Is that a bad thing?"
Liberty: "Not exactly. It's a very Karst thing."
Chanel: "I'm so happy! I hope to be just like Daddy in the future!"
Liberty: (Can this world handle another one?)
Sinclair was finally a rock star. At one of her many autograph sessions one of her biggest fans showed up-- Lyle Parvenu.
Sinclair: "You could just come by the house you know. We are family."
Lyle: "I couldn't intrude on someone so marvelous as you. I'm not worthy of even talking to you right now."
Fern was also apparently good friends with Chanel. Fern went over for a small study session. Neither of them are very good at homework.
Fern: "I just don't understand. They say don't use a calculator, but where in real life are you going to have a job that is like 'I need you to solve this math problem but OH MY GOD DON'T USE A CALCULATOR DO IT ON YOUR OWN'? You know?"
Chanel: "I never really thought about it that way. I think I need to ask Daddy to have a talk with the school and their outdated policies on math."
I'm running out of introductions for birthdays. This is a birthday. Sinclair, fortunately, managed to be out of the house this time.
Dempster sparkles into looking like Eddie. It's like they are twins except not really.
Sinclair was attending to much more important things like panhandling in the park. She noticed an unwanted face in the crowd.
Sinclair: (That girl better not come over here oh she better not.)
Sinclair: ♫ "Don't stand. Don't stand so close to me~~" ♫
Justice: "Ha, clever change of song you old bag! I'm giving you $5 to go home and shut up."
Sinclair: ♫ "You can't always get what you want oh you can't always get what you want~~" ♫
It seemed to be a reunion of siblings at the park. Galahad found Harmony and July found Justice.
The horror of the Fem-Mars jaw was slowly sinking in back home.
Liberty: "Why couldn't you take after your mother girls? Whyyyyyyyy???"
Galahad came home leaving Sinclair in the park to do her own thing. Fern and Dempster were playing video games.
Fern: "Wanna play too Dad?"
Galahad: "Games just aren't really my thing."
Fern: "Don't want to be beaten by a girl?"
Galahad: "Give me the damn controller."
Fern: "Wow even Mandrake plays better than you and he says that playing games is bad for his 'artist's hands'!"
Galahad: "That Mandrake of yours is nothing to brag about on manliness scale. He doesn't even like salsa on his chips because it hurts his fragile girly taste buds."
Dempster: "Are we still playing the game?"
Sinclair got home and changed into something more comfy and decided the best place to play guitar in the entire house was right in front of the TV.
Galahad: "I see what you two are up to. Using your Grandmother to obstruct my view of the TV and make me lose!"
Fern: "Grandma? Cadence is crying, shouldn't you go check on her which would require you moving from in front of the TV?"
Fern: "She's gone now so you can't use that as an excuse for losing."
Galahad: "I will beat you one of these days!"
Liberty and Illinois decided to join them for a bit of bonding time while leaving poor Sinclair to Cadence duty. Why she is the most proactive sim in this house is beyond me.
Eddie: "Get out of bathroom I'm trying to do my business here. Jeez!"
Dempster: "I can't believe my own brother demands that I get out of the room I was in first. I'm wiping away a tear."
They look so much alike it creeps me out. Dempster on left, Eddie on right. They even have that smirk down pat already.
Of all his toddlers, Cadence has been Galahads favorite.
Cadence: "Da-da, dis hwurts."
A crown of family and friends surrounds a table with hot dogs out by the pool. What ever could this mean?
Eddie is now a teen. He developed the vegetarian trait.
Crazy Uncle Jazz likes to show up and dance. He's a really good dancer actually.
Jazz: "You gotta put your hips more into it boy! You know like this. Oh yeahhh!"
Galahad: (Oh this is so awkward. Who invited him anyways?)
Mandrake was enjoying the trampoline when he suddenly heard someone call out to him.
Karst: "Hey son, save room on that thing for me."
Mandrake: (That sounded like our World Leader. Nah, couldn't be.)
Mandrake: (Okay I am on a trampoline with the real World Leader right here in the flesh. Oh god oh god oh god. Stay calm, you hate people. Don't lose your cool.)
Karst: "So I hear you have taken a liking to my niece. She's a lovely girl. If anyone ever hurts her, I fear what would happen to them. It shouldn't be a problem with you though, right?"
Mandrake: "Yes sir-- I mean, no sir! Not a problem at all!"
Harmony was taking care of the very neglected Cadence during the party. Harmony and Mars were still very much in love and had just given birth to their second and third children-- twin boys. Alfonzo and maybe Alexander? It was an A name...
Fern had noticed that Mandrake had slipped away from the party. She called him up and went to find him in town.
Fern: "Why did you leave? Did something happen? If it was Uncle Jazz and he like pulled your shorts down don't mind him. He's just crazy. Every family has one."
Mandrake: "It's not Jazz... I was on the trampoline with the world famous Karst Parvenu and he said that if hurt you -- and I had to get away."
Fern: "Oh Uncle Karst. <3 He looks out for everyone, he's such a great Uncle. Just never hurt me and you won't have a problem!"
Since they were in town, Fern decided to let Mandrake try out his inner artist and give her a makeover. He was born to style. He already had the gestures mastered.
Mandrake: "Right now you have a bit of a dirty schoolgirl look going on, but I think with your facial structure and your hair style that something a bit more librarian would be fitting."
Fern: "Do your worst Drakey."
For his first time, Mandrake did pretty well.
Mandrake: "Finally my artistry can be appreciated by the world! Uh, the world that I hate, but well whatever!"
They both got caught up in the moment. It really was a picturesque scene.
Stylist: "Sir? Ma'am? We're trying to work here."
Dempster brought home his cousin Alfonzo. (Mars and Harmony's son) He is somehow blond.
Cute toddler looking evil can only mean one of two things 1. They are related to Mars Pearson or 2. It's what should be a happy time like a birthday. In this case, both were met.
Instantly bored to the point of exhaustion by her own party. She's a Parvenu alright. She has purple eyes and the Mars Jaw.
--------------------------------------------------
Sorry this too so long. Every time my game would CTD I'd get so mad I'd not play for the rest of the night so I honestly took forever to get all these pictures. My game hates me, and I hate it back. If we were married, I'd definitely get a divorce.
Next up, the boys find love in a set of twin girls? Will Cadence grow into her Mars Jaw? Hopefully an heir poll too!
