The Pleasants - Round Two
To the Pleasants! You can find the 2012 round one here if you’re interested.
That’s very sweet, Daniel, but it’s not happening. A platinum old age death is basically winning the death lottery.
Daniel: Then I wanna do something else to cheer myself up.
Mary-Sue: Works for me!
Angela: This is exactly how I wanted to start my week.
Yeah, and I didn’t wanna type this out three times, and yet, here we are.
Angela: This is more like it.
Gigi: *instantly dies of spite*
Mary-Sue: Let’s talk about crystal balls.
Townie: Scuse me, coming through!
Mary-Sue: Don’t look at my knees.
Angela was supposed to come along on the Downtown outing, but she decided to stay at home and do her homework instead. So I decided to sent Daniel and Mary-Sue out on a more grown-up trip.
Daniel: Can we have a couple of cups of coffee please?
Malcolm: So the political situation in Veronaville is quite tense, isn’t it?
Mary-Sue: Yeahhhhh this is all getting a bit heavy. Me and my husband are going to find somewhere more... atmospheric.
To the Lost In Love Hedge Maze! How’s that for atmospheric?
Townie: Speaking of atmosphere, I’m not sure we should be out in this weather.
Mary-Sue: Why’s that?
DOUBLE LIGHTNING STRIKE C-C-C-COMBO!!!
Townie: That’s why.
Townie: Haha!
Really? You’re going in again?
Mary-Sue: They say lightning doesn’t strike twice.
It... literally just struck twice at once.
Mary-Sue: I’ll risk- OH MY GOD IS THAT TV STAR ROBERT KIM!?
Mary-Sue: Hi, I just wanted to say I’m a huge fan, Mr Kim. Great show. Huge fan.
Robert: Uh, thanks.
Mary-Sue: I love him.
And then she burned her food so badly, all her hair burned off.
Angela: Wheeeee levitation!
You can’t sleep there, your parents are about to use it.
Daniel and Mary-Sue: Damn right we are!
Angela: Oh shit oh shit they’re IN MY HAIR!
Out to the park, and yay, my swimable lake works!
Dustin: You can’t eat hotdogs forever, asshole.
Daniel: Ow.
Daniel: Can’t attack a man playing chess.
Congrats Angela!
Is it really that bad?
Daniel: Yes.
Mary-Sue to the rescue!
Daniel: Happy wife, happy life!
Yeah, and all you had to do was stay faithful.
Mary-Sue: What was that?
Daniel: Nothing!
Angela: Pretty stars tonight.
Angela: Didn’t need to see that though.
Oh yay, Angela gets her last day off school! What are you gonna do with it, Angela?
Angela: Set fire to the kitchen.
Sounds fun! Enjoy! I’m gonna let your dad go tinkering.
Daniel: Really hope this doesn’t kill me.
And then Angela spends her afternoon hanging out with friends.
Dustin: Just watching my girlfriend play Punch-U with some other guy, this is fine.
Angela: I’d love to go on a cruise.
Tara: Maybe in Sims 5.
More of this.
Angela: And that’s me off to college.
Mary-Sue and Daniel: Bye! Don’t forget to visit!
But first, they get a couple of other visitors.
Coral: This is very nice, dear.
John: You should try eggs next.
John: So... while I’m here, how about one of those athletic massages?
Daniel: Weird request, but OK.
John: Mmm, your hands feel soooo-
OK! This is creepy (and 100% autonomous!) so I’m gonna go check on Mary-Sue now.
Mary-Sue: Just keep swimming.
Gardeners: We’re just taking a break.
...An all day break, huh?
And then Daniel reached his LTW!
Daniel: Are these my reward?
No! Dismiss them before they take over the house!
Daniel: So how does it feel to be married to a Hall Of Famer?
Mary-Sue: Not as good as woohooing one.
Daniel: I can take a hint.
Mary-Sue: Ley’s take it to a community lot.
Daniel: The coast is clear.
Yeah, I cropped out the audience.
Couldn’t crop them out of this one where you were checking for pubes in your teeth though.
OK these two are really making the most of having the house to themselves.
But Mary-Sue has to go to work, so I sent Daniel out on the town.
Where he runs into his little sister.
Jennifer: Daniel! Heard you became a Hall Of Famer, congratulations!
Daniel: *poses*
But Daniel’s growing up in a day, so it’s time for a family get-together!
Mary-Sue: Here’s some stuff from your grandmother.
Lilith: Oh! Thanks.
Mary-Sue: And stuff for you too.
Angela: Just what I need for university!
Big family dinner.
And then it’s time for Daniel-
Daniel: Nope. CC cake. I’m staying an adult.
Oh. Uh, well, OK, enjoy the cake, I suppose.
Lilith: She really thinks we’re gonna get cruises in Sims 5!? We’ll be lucky if we even get cars!
So. Daniel’s last day of adulthood, and I let him play on the shooting range in Veronaville.
Daniel: Just something for home protection. Y’know, if teenage boys come over to steal the paper and kick over the bin. I mean, I could get roach flu, it’s basically an assassination attempt.
Really? Again? Once wasn’t enough?
Samantha: Oooh, hello handsome!
Daniel: But will I still be handsome when I’m old and grey?
Tara: Have you tried hitting the balls with a tennis racket?
Daniel: No, because I’m not an idiot.
Daniel: Can I get a burger please? Before I become an elder?
Waitress: The service isn’t that slow.
Finally the time arrives. I couldn’t be bothered inviting the family over again, so Sophia Jocque is the only witness.
Daniel: Oh, OK, this isn’t so bad after all.
Daniel: And now, to check if everything still works.
Daniel: Is... is she gonna stay here?
Mary-Sue: Don’t care, got a promotion.
Daniel: Well, in that case!
Sophia: I’ve gone blind.
And the week ends with Daniel giving Sophia a little advice.
Daniel: I couldn’t help overhearing you. Have you considered getting your eyes tested? I hear Barnard Castle is pretty good.
