I don't usually play spares much. In fact, the only spare I've played pretty much at all was a bit with Cholo just because I wanted to see if his children were as scary as I thought they'd be. (And yeah, they kind of were.) Gen 7, however, really did give me a difficult decision when it came to heir and, since I promised
pooklet I'd play and document Brubaker and Tallulah's life for her anyway, I figured I might as well just go ahead and post them while I was at it. So, here you have it.
Married bliss, something to be enjoyed while it lasted, given how badly these two wanted to start a family.
And now for cuddles.
They seriously cycled through the morning cuddle animations for almost two sim hours.
They both also wanted a kitten so I got them one. This is Male. She is a female.
While Brubaker was skilling long into the night, Tallulah decided to nap beside him.
Of course, they've obviously also taken some time to get started on that family I mentioned.
Very obviously.
Brubaker occasionally practices his parenting skills with the kitten.
While Tallulah lets strange men talk to the baby in her belly.
Very. Strange. Men.
Girl makes a habit of popping in the kitchen.
I had never had a pregnant sim watch children's programmes with their tummy. So. Cute.
Popping is not the only thing she does in the kitchen.
Meet Zhena. Black hair, alien eyes and I think one tone lighter skin than her father.
I'm not playing infants with the spares but Tallulah was exhausted so I waited for Brubaker to age the baby.
Quite pleased.
Zhena spent much of her toddlerhood playing with this doll.
Or with the cat. While her parents...er...played with each other.
Speaking of the cat!
Pregnant again? Why yes.
Brubaker fails at being a sloppy sim or a mean sim and habitually cleans and worries around his wife.
And Zhena had a birthday! She unfortunately grew up badly, due to her father always working and her mother being pregnant.
However, Male remained her best friend.
A typical meal in this household...
In an attempt to have some fun while everyone else slept, Brubaker built a snowman.
A faceless snowman.
As the rest of the snow melted away.
And then his wife went into labor in the bathroom.
Meet Ashley (a boy, black hair, alien eyes, pale skin)...
And Browne (another boy, black hair, grandfather's eyes, slightly less pale skin).
Thus ends our first foray into the life of the Gen 7 spares, a life which you will soon watch go progressively farther downhill. Updates for this will undoubtedly be even more sporadic than regular updates have been of late but I'm trying to play more lately and so will hopefully be able to post more as well.
In fact, I'm off to write a regular update RIGHT NOW. So ta.
