The Summerdream and Crittur families
Hi again! Welcome to the Uberhood. You get a special 2-for-1 deal today because I wanted Sarah Crittur to have her babies, so I moved her and Danny in with the Summerdreams.
I started by trying to give Bottom a change of clothes, but I was totally distracted by Hermia and Puck here, who ACR'd their first kisses before I could even peek at their chemistry or anything.
Mercutio and Tybalt were less distracted. Which is probably a good thing seeing as Mercutio has a crush on Hermia too and I don't want that drama right now.
Oberon: Hey, wanna see if we can't break up the fight and gross out the mortals with a little adult PDA?
Titania: You have the best ideas!
Titania: Did it work? What are they doing?
Oberon: Running with their eyes shut. I hope no-one trips.
Titania: I hope everyone trips.
So Puck got a little makeover. I might scrape off all the makeup when he goes to college, but for now, he gets a full faceful. Then I started trying to find out his hobby.
Puck: If I break it, they can never embarrass me like that again.
Oh honey, it's so cute that you believe that.
Shut up, InTeen.
So, the dogs. Everyone wanted a pet, which is why I decided to move in Danny and Sarah. But it turns out it doesn't count if you add pets from the family bin. And if that wasn't bad enough, Danny instantly started destroying the very expensive furniture because both of these dogs are jerks.
I also get this pop-up half a dozen time a day because they're trained to eat sim food and won't touch the pet food.
I am struck down with hilarity at the thought of it being difficult to recognise Puck behind makeup. I can't recognise him without it.
He also got a job as a Slacker.
Fairy magic or Inteen shenanigans? You decide.
Sarah wouldn't be starving is Sarah deigned to eat kibble instead of lobster thermidor every now and again. Just sayin'.
So after her little tongue sarnie with Puck, Hermia has started just inviting herself over and playing with the pinball machine. And why not.
After putting few plates of food on the floor and then yelling at them for eating it, Sarah and Danny start to finally get the message. Although training them to eat pet food does not actually mean they stop whining about how they're totally starving to death because they're too stupid to eat.
Some of their bad behaviour does amuse me though, like Sarah here attacking the poor post girl out of nowhere.
Sarah: FUCK OFF AND TAKE YOUR BILLS WITH YOU.
That's my girl.
Titania's LTW is to graduate three children from college. She needs at least three children for that. There were no little accidents in the hot tub, so as Puck and Bottom were adopted, I decided to stick with that theme and adopt a third child.
So meet Riordan! He's a total cutie-pie and with all that red hair, he's gonna fit in just fine.
Oh, and I brought them a TV so I could test out Malcolm Landgraab's electronics store. It turns out his TVs suck just as badly as his robots.
Titania gets stuck in right away with the potty training, which, as you can see, she's totally thrilled about.
Puck isn't even at home when his new baby brother arrives and he already hates him!
He tries to avoid interacting with him by playing ten dozen games of chess with Jennifer Burb here...
...But he can't escape potty training forever.
Puck: You just wanted to take pictures of me, didn't you?
Can you blame me? You make much better faces than your mother.
Oberon gets the short straw and has to bathe Sarah. She was actually well behaved, but getting her into the bath in the first place was hell and took about three sim hours of calling and queue stomping and getting stuck on the stairs, which I didn't picture. You're welcome.
And then Oberon got fired.
He consoled himself with a shower while Danny played in the puddles he made.
Titania had a day off, so she spent most of her time painting instead of taking care of Riordan. At least he's got all that food Sarah and Danny refuse to eat, right?
When she does attempt childcare, it's a little too late.
I got the dogs a job each to get them out of the house. I was worried for a good long while that Sarah might not actually be pregnant because I had no idea if pets got maternity leave like sims do...
But then, puppies! There were three, I just took the picture somewhere in the middle.
Only guess what? Remember how everyone wanted a pet and moving in the Critturs didn't fill that want? It also turns out that pets born on the lot didn't fill any of the pet wants either. So I put little Gin, Whiskey and Vodka (which is what I needed after caring for their awful parents) up for adoption and then adopted back Gin. And FINALLY everyone except me got an aspiration boost from them.
Thanks, Danny. As if I didn't hate you guys enough already.
Titania throws the best parties, but it's not enough to pay for the womrat therapy Danny owes.
This helped though. OK Danny, maybe I don't completely hate you after all.
This is also good. :D
Riordan is still adorable and completely unfazed by clowns.
But it's time his elder siblings met some kids their own age to hang with. I sent them to that market in Veronaville, which I updated to include a restaurant, which Puck happily tests for me.
They also try out my pub.
Botton: When I said 'straight as an arrow', I didn't mean one of those bendy, detour ones.
Puck: Shut up, I meant to do that.
They didn't make any friends except each other and you know what? That's fine with me if they keep on doing cute stuff like this.
Bottom teaches Sarah how to roll over for her next promotion, while Titania just spoils Danny rotten.
Meanwhile, Oberon takes over some of the toddler training.
There's subliminal messages in that video, aren't there?
Titania may be good at her job, but she's a terrible cook.
Titania: Never mind! Birthday cake for dinner instead!
Say hello to teenage Bottom! Which sounds terribly pervy, but you know what I mean.
It's also Riordan's birthday and he is still completely adorable.
He also now gets to move out of his parents room and into the spare bedroom, which is pictured here pre-makeover, back when its function really was 'spare room'.
D: WHY DIDN'T YOU USE YOUR HIGH SCHOOL ART FILM HERE!?
I sent Bottom out to the shopping centre and pool over in Strangetown. Maybe she'll have better luck finding friends with her new, teenage body?
Nope. That guy in the back stopped swimming and walked on water just so he could dry-heave over her.
Jesus: She's so ugly, when she looks at her reflection, it ducks!
Not true! Reflections aren't even turned on.
Jesus: And neither am I.
Bottom doesn't care though, she's just happy floating around, getting in everyone's way.
Random Guy: Excuse me, I'm in the middle of a very serious game of Marco Polo here, young lady, would you mind moving?
Bottom: Did you say something, I can't hear anything with all this water in my ears.
Speaking of ears, she wanted some jewellery, so I let her buy some pretty earrings. And then the lot crashed.
So when I loaded up again, I sent her to Strangetown's other pool.
Bottom: Ugh, water in my ears. And let me tell you, that's no picnic when they're elf ears.
Bottom: DAMMIT LADY, CAN'T A GIRL GET A COFFEE WITHOUT SOME GROSS TOWNIE FARTING ALL OVER THE PLACE!? I had my mouth open and everything!
Farting Townie Chick: Haha, Bottom here just farted! It's funny because you're Bottom. Get it!?
Bottom: Make fun of my name again and I will personally hex you so that YOUR bottom and face trade places. Oh wait, someone already did that!
Feeling better?
Bottom: Much better. No-one can tell if I'm farting in here.
Because no-one ever seemed to be awake at the same time as Oberon, not even the dogs, his social was running low. So I tested my mood boosting aspiration rewards.
Puck maxed out his career and became an overachiever.
Then Oberon solved all his social problems by himself by screwing Titania in the hot tub again.
I used Puck's promo bonus to buy him a keyboard, but Riordan and Bottom don't give him a chance to touch it.
Hmm, I wonder how he got so good at music all of a sudden?
I wanted to improve Bottom and Puck's relationship, so when they got home from school, I made them hang out for hours and talk about shoes.
Oberon managed to get back into the Architect career, so yay.
Danny also got promoted, which is the very least he can do for being so annoying.
And this picture marks the very first time I've managed to have a parent cheer for their kid's grade while the child was actually there in front of them. Most of the time, they start cheering when the child's halfway up the stairs with their homework.
So now Riordan's home, he gets to hang out with his elder siblings too.
Bottom: First snow day we get, I say we build an army of snowmen and take over this town. Who's with me?
And we end with yet another promotion, this time for Titania.
---
Those dogs. Those bloody dogs. They have the absolute worst training in the world! I managed to train out some of the bad behaviour, but Sarah is still destructive and Danny stinks all the damn time. I may still give one of them up for adoption, I dunno. I love the rest of the family though, the kids are all adorable and the adults are fun. With the dogs being so much hard work, Titania and Oberon never got a date night, but I'm hoping to do that next time. Fingers crossed they'll both roll a want to tie the knot!
Next, the last pregnant sim, Ana Patel and her hubby. See ya then!
