We'll start off this chapter with Honour and Starlight continuing to build a rapport. They're very cute together.
Starlight is, of course, the one instigating the interactions. Honour is easy to convince though, animal lover that she is.
Meanwhile elder Beau makes sure he's double and tripling up on useful potions in his last days.
And continuing his jelly bean addiction. With . . . varied results.
BEAU - Hm . . . is somebody barbequing something?
Yes, that would be your butt.
BEAU - Well then, guess I should take myself on over to the shower.
O_O Yeah, sure. Take your time though. No need to rush, not like you're in danger of dying or anything.
Oh wait.
STARLIGHT - *kitty face-palm*
I think that sums it up quite eloquently, thank you Star.
HENRI - Oh frapples!
Someone forgot where the potty was, apparently.
-5
HENRI - Ugh, I can't believe I did that.
HONOUR - Me either. I can't believe you peed. That. Close. To. Me. *heavy breathing*
Oooookay then. O_o
Henri went on to autonomously make silly-faces at Beau, which I thought was pretty darned precious.
Caitlyn continues the time-honored tradition of deciding to have your birthday in the bathroom. It's time for her elderhood.
Which she enters rather gracefully, if I do say so myself. Even if Cait herself doesn't look terribly convinced.
Ghost Jarrod decided to get his drink on that night.
And the next day, it was time for the girls' prom! For some reason Gwendolyn never got one. *sad face* Nothing terribly entertaining happened, aside from Honour winning Prom Queen and Henri getting into about fifteen different fights. You know. Typical sims prom. :P
And then . . . this. W.T.H. -_- Bonehilda is supposed to be immortal, am I right?!
I'm guessing it has to be some sort of conflict with my Story Progression MOD. Sadly, her grave was 'empty' once it appeared (just saying Remains) so in the end I just deleted it.
And then replaced the coffin. Everyone say hello to Bonehilda 2.0!
Bonehilda 2.0 apparently has less love for the drinks and more for the furries. She actually cornered this elder stray and tried to teach him a trick for several hours before it finally escaped.
And here we come to it. The official end of Beauregard's reign as Torch-Holder. He was a great sim, and he's earned his autonomy-retirement. May he enjoy it (and the numorous autonomous woohoos that are sure to follow).
Before we get to the twins' birthday, lets have some spares updates, eh? First up, Deirdre's eldest Sarah has become a rather good-looking young adult.
This little cutie here is Felix and Raven's first-born, a daughter named Sparrow. She has daddy's black hair, and it looks like great-aunt Daphne and Deirdre's green-gray hazel eyes. Neat combo!
Not three or four hours after Sparrow was born, I got a notice that Raven was yet again pregnant. This beauty was the direct result. Meet their second-born, another daughter named Nightingale. She's got what looks to be gramma Caitlyn's red hair (momma's hair is a darker red) and purple eyes.
And I kid you not, few hours later and Raven is knocked up yet again. I think Felix thinks this is a competition or something . . . .
Not to be outdone, eldest Everett got himself a baby-mama as well, a townie named Haley Sumari that he's since broken up with. But not before getting this little cutie out of the deal, a daughter named Lola. She's got daddy's blond hair and her mother's amber-colored eyes.
Back home, it's finally time for the twins to age up and the next TH to take over.
Being the eldest, Henrietta is the first to make the transition. She had an A in school (but not long enough for an Honor Roll, CURSES!), so I got to roll her trait. It ended up being Handy. This prompted the LTW of Firefighter Superhero to appear, which I found rather fitting given her other traits.
Henri was promptly wished well and booted out to live with her big sister Gwen. Good luck dearie! May SP treat you as warmly as your older siblings.
And finally, last but certainly never least, our TH for Generation Four, Honour Goth! Her final trait was locked in, Unflirty. At a loss for anything else, I finally decided on Renaissance Sim from the choices given, which is to master 3 different skills. Thus, Honour will be a stay-at-home mommy.
Now she just needs to find a man to father said babies . . . .
*POOF!*
CHIMAERA - Hello, ladies.
Everyone welcome the newest member of the Goth Household, Chimaera Thrill! As you can see from the awesome glowy-flotation, Chimaera is a genie. He's one of the spares from Jessu's Thrill of Insanity ISBI (check it out if you haven't already, it's awesomeness). We thought it would be fun to trade spares as spouses for our games. Thus, Felix went to her game to marry her TH Raven Thrill, and I got to kidnap Chimaera here.
I straight-up merged him into the household rather than chase him down in town and spam-ask-to-move-in. I feel no guilt. His official stats are as follows - He's a Proper, Easily Impressed, Night Owl Virtuoso who Loves the Outdoors. He likes Hip Hop music, Cheesesteak and the color Turquoise. His LTW is to become a Celebrity Psychic (which is the scam-artist branch of the Fortune Teller career).
Chimaera's first order of business upon joining the Goth Household was to sit down and enjoy a cookie.
HONOUR - I . . . I really like the way he chews his food . . . .
O_o NSFW
Since his energy was low, the next order of business after that was pelting him with an Invigoration elixir so he would stay awake for social/romantic spam.
CHIMAERA - Holy FRACK what was that?!
HONOUR - *I wonder what's on TV tonight . . .?*
Next up, conversation! Gotta build up that relationship after all!
CHIMAERA - I really dig cheesesteak. They're so . . . cheesy. Know what I mean?
HONOUR - I'm a Lobster Thermidor kinda gal, myself.
CHIMAERA and HONOUR - You're hawt.
Lol, true story. Apparently the new attraction system was kind to them, they both viewed each other as a 6 out of 10 I think.
It was then that I remembered, I don't have to slog through hours of meaningless conversation! Potent Friendship Potion GO!
CHIMAERA - SONOFA! Stop throwing stuff at me!!!
HONOUR - *I wonder if vampires go to the bathroom . . .?*
Now instant BFFs, we went right for the romantic spam instead. Chi (pronounced KAI) was a fan of this spontaneous bouquet of flowers.
HONOUR - HERP. I like your face.
Thankfully he was also receptive to Honour's somewhat . . . unique courtship.
First kissies!
And then some hand-holdies! They really are quite adorable together.
Honour wastes no time in confirming boyfriend/girlfriend status. He'll be needing to sleep in her bed tonight, after all.
And then I figured, what the hay. No time like the present, might as well get the engagement out of the way too.
HONOUR - Okay, Chi. I know we've only known each other for *checks watch* five hours, but there's something I need to ask you. So don't move. Don't speak. Don't even breathe.
CHIMAERA - I kind've HAVE to breathe, babe. What is it--what are you . . .?
HONOUR - BE MY VALENTINE!
CHIMAERA - Is that a WEDDING RING? You want me to MARRY you?!
HONOUR - . . . yeah, sure, that too.
I think his answer was yes. :P
And then, to the (newly redecorated) bedroom . . . .
CHIMAERA - Hellz yeah, I'mma 'bout to get me summa that!
HONOUR - *fluffs pillows after inexplicably changing into her swimwear*
HONOUR - Okay, Genie-Man. Time to make my wishes come true!
CHIMAERA - Urp . . . um. On second thought . . . I gotta potty. O_O
Yeah . . . Honour's woohoo wish was thwarted by the bladder. Maybe next time . . . .
The next morning found Honour heading out to take classes in her 3 skills of choice; Cooking, Alchemy and Painting. She decided she needed to wear her athletic clothes for the occasion. I promise she didn't have to run there, she has her own vacuum cleaner and everything.
Chimaera spent his first full day playing some computer games. I'll be waiting until after the wedding to assign him his career because I'm actually going to throw a wedding party for this generation, plumbobs preserve me.
Once Honour got back from her classes, it was straight to her new easel to get to work on that painting skill. Apparently that requires a bathing suit. Beau decided to keep her company, which I thought was adorable. He does a lot of reading now, it's his new favorite pastime.
I took some time out to have Honour play with magic, too, since this is the first I've been able to do so. Thanks to Starlight's presence, she's gaining skill in it pretty quickly. I wonder if the magic skill would count toward her LTW, given that it's hidden and all? Hrm, something to ponder.
The next day, around noon, it was finally time for the wedding. Guests began arriving right away. The sour-faced creepy-guy is actually Daphne's husband Ayden. To go along with that sour face he immediately declared the party to be lame and left. -_- Tho to be fair, it's probably because he's a vampire and he was smoldering. But whatevs.
We also have Gwendolyn in attendance, and the blond guy behind Ayden is her new new husband, Zack Durwood-Goth! No babies yet, but I'm hopeful!
Behind them was Deirdre's eldest, Sarah.
Of course Honour's twin Henrietta would be there for her sister's nuptials.
Speaking of the Bride-To-Be. Here she is in her very earthy/natural-looking wedding dress. Barefoot, of course.
Sister-in-law and sister of the groom Raven Thrill-Goth was the next to arrive.
Followed by her hubby Felix.
And then Everett.
His dad might have been a douche and bailed, but Good-Guy Dimitri came and stuck around for the entire party.
Unfortunately once it came time for the actual ceremony, Zack was the only one who could figure out how the chairs worked. -_-*
Luckily Honour and Chimaera didn't have the same problem with the arch.
HONOUR - Alright Chi, let's get this thing over-with before they all start peeing themselves.
CHIMAERA - So romantic.
HONOUR - Alright, alright. How's this? *long sexy stare*
CHIMAERA - . . . yeah, ok, I'm ready for the honeymoon now. Like right now.
Lolol, wedding montage is a GOOOOOOOO.
Beau finally found the wedding ceremony right at the end. I don't think Caitlyn ever managed to get out of the house, however. And there in the background you see Daphne's youngest, Jeremiah, who was a late-late arrival.
Honour had a wish to cut the wedding cake, so I indulged. It of course caused a huge cluster of fail with everyone trying to grab a piece of cake all at once, so right afterward everybody was kicked off the lot and the wedding was officially OVAR. Still, CUTE!
The newlyweds went inside to share a dinner of wedding cake and/or stuffed turkey.
And then it was time for dessert. *eyebrow waggle*
It was into the bedroom once more and this time Chimaera's bladder was safely empty, so no unexpected interruptions.
CHIMAERA - Uh . . . babe? Why'd you put on your athletic-wear?
HONOUR - 'Cause you're about to get the workout of your life, genie-boy.
Rawr.
Under the covers they went, and sweet sweet baby chimes were had by all.
So there you have it! Generation Four has officially begun, and Gen 5 is on the way! Stay tuned for more Goth-Sanity shenanigans! Until next time, happy simming!
