Mama has been very successful at her new career. I guess she found her true calling.
Branden’s also doing very well for himself these days. Happy fiancée, couple of kids. Successful medical practice.
At my home, we have less grandeur and more delusions of grandeur.
So many delusions.
She didn’t take it too well.
I think William is better with his kids where they’re toddlers.
Well, he has one more toddler to go.
At least the cats are cute.
That evening started like any other, but it ended with an awful surprise.
It was Mama’s time to go.
She pled with the Grim Reaper for more time. She was only 109. He wasn’t sympathetic at all.
While we were all wailing with grief, Bungle let Grim inside to have a cup of coffee.
I took my grief out on Grim directly. How dare he take my mother away.
After a good pillow-bashing, I felt better.
We laid Mama to rest next to Mum.
It was rough for a time after that.
When I got up in the middle of the night to have a good cry about Mama, I’d finally had enough.
So I zapped myself.
No more grief. Much better.
That night, it snowed.
William took up sculpting! Amazing!
To break the toilet.
Fortunately, Helen dealt with the mess.
Then Nova started yowling in the side yard. We ran out to look.
Kittens! Two of them!
Meet Mickey
And Minnie!
Cheshire approves.
I asked her if I could, you know, check around inside.
That should have made me feel a LITTLE bit guilty. But it didn’t because I found the shoes.
When all my leads dried up, I headed to the fitness spa on a hunch. It was totally a hunch and not because I wanted to go to the spa.
And what do you know!
This was the absolutely best kind of bribe.
I found out why he wanted it kept a secret later. The shoes smelled horrible.
But what do I care? I got paid.
I’m sure Mum would approve.
———-
Aww. Goodbye, Hetal. May you have fun flirting with Allison as a ghost.
Both Hetal and Allison lived to be about 110. That’s crazy long for a life span set to 92 days. After this, I changed the NRaas settings to put a maximum on the number of days I sim could live.
I LOOOVE Mickey and Minnie. The only problem is that their markings are exactly the same, and Minnie has the default all-skinny-slider body type. I’m considering using Play with Genetics to re-roll her. Pets seem to have a large number of genetic fails. But considering that we only got one set of markings, isn’t it perfect?? I think there’s a bit of all the generations so far.
This almost catches me up to gameplay. I’m not sure if there’s another post worth of pictures. I believe I stopped playing right before, or right on top of, Franklin’s birthday.
My big question is this — if anyone is reading. Erin and William both have a wish locked in for another kid. I fear Gideon and Helen might be clones. So what do you think? Should I do it??
Awwwww, bye, Hetal – RIP. You were an amazing sim and made us laugh lots of times.
I think you should do it and let them have another baby. Genetic diversity is one of the goals in this legacy, and if two of the kids turn out to be face clones, you should allow them to have a fifth child. (One that hopefully is not forgotten until his/her child birthday 😉 )
Also, I was surprised to see that William took care of all the children that one night!
What'll the family do without Hetal around to beat everyone up?! It makes me sad to see her go.
I'm always up for new sim babies, so you won't get any complaints from this corner! You could make it like a "surprise" baby? Like, Chrissi, I'm also pleasantly surprised at how good a father William is when he thinks no one is watching. Much like the character he is styled after actually. Beneath the prickles, he's a good guy.
RIP Hetal! You were an awesome spouse!
Cute kittens are cute, but I'm not sure about birthing them in the snow.
Go, William, putting everyone to bed without alienating any of the children. I have such a soft spot for him.
I was sorry to see Hetal go when I was writing this, but at the time she was SO OLD, and Allison lived to be SO OLD. I spent days wondering if this was the day I'd get an extra space in the household, then feeling guilty about it :). I get so attached to my pixel people.
It's been so long since I've actually PLAYED Sims, I'm a bit afraid to open my game. Wonderlands are, believe it or not, now caught up to gameplay. So there's nothing more to say unless I make it.
I don't think Erin has become full adult yet, so there ought to be plenty of time to raise another kid. I guess I'll do it.
I was a big Spike fan from Buffy Season 5 on. I love a good redemption story. William Wonderland isn't actually a bit Spike simulation. Ha!
I find it entirely too funny to watch sim cats give birth in the snow. I think that's the second time for this legacy.
I REALLY like the appearance of the new kittens. Cannot wait to grow them up. I'm trying to decide if I should risk a second pregnancy.
Bye Hetal. You gave us some hilarious times, and lost many points with all your fighting. But you were a great grandmother and decent mother.
Glad you chose to go for the next child – can never have enough children, IMO 🙂
