A visit to Academie le Tour

Annette Langerak starved along with a resident Sim in a campus apartment.  The cute girl who saved her parents from the latest cull had grown into another ugly Sim with big lips and big nose.  No point breeding from her.  The Sim god has better things to do with time than waste it on her.

Gypsy Tan (eldest daughter of the deceased Demonica and Vasyl Ebadi then adopted by her grandmother) was taking a shine to secret club member, Jihoon Cox.

She rather fancied him (although the picture doesn’t show any attraction), but he didn’t want to reveal his attraction to her.  It was rather slow going.  So she turned her attentions on Tucker Miguel (who Gerard Langerak had brought back to life in the secret mansion).

Jihoon had missed his chance (as well as getting stuck in the table).

I eventually had to free him.

Andrejz Champignon, meanwhile, had moved into the dorm and met his aunt Amphyra in undies.

He didn’t like to ask.  (It was probably from when she was visiting Garrett.)

He and Tui Reiner (daughter of Hollandia) hit it off and they both had their first kiss.

They’re related through their great great grandfather (Raoul Champignon), but that didn’t stop them.

Andrejz eventually popped the question.

Tui accepted.

Andrejz and Tui dropped out and moved into an apartment in Veronaville.

Tucker and Gypsy also dropped out and moved into apartments opposite Andrejz and Tui.  They are also engaged.

The weddings may be held in the Bluewater park.

One final post for this batch

Artois’ twin daughters, Cochonette and Framboise lived downtown.  Cochonette married a townie, George Landry.  Framboise continued living in the house with them, which came in handy when Cochonette gave birth to twin boys, Bob and Jack.

Artois and Isobel visited them.

While there the twins had their birthday.

Yeah….  You can see by this time Isobel had become an elder.

Framboise and Bob

Cochonette and Jack

Artois now has seven grandchildren – three girls and four boys.  Framboise  had not yet found a boyfriend.

The small house they were in was too small for five so they moved house, still in downtown.

 

It appeared that Framboise was very friendly with Seamus Danaher and invited him round that evening.

She had her very first kiss.  (I couldn’t get closer because of obstructions..)

Framboise didn’t stop at kissing.

 

Framboise is now pregnant with Seamus’ child – perhaps the much-wanted boy for Seamus.  What will happen now?

Stay tuned.

Sorry about the spacing. The HTML is fucking up again. The spacing fucked up after inserting captions for the pics.

The Champignon residence

Celeste and Artois got on rather well. (Celeste was pregnant with number two here.)

They flirted a fair bit and unfortunately Celeste fell in love with Artois.  So when she caught him in bed with his wife, her sister, she wasn’t too pleased.

Celeste gave birth to a boy.  He was named Jean-Pierre after his great great grandfather Jean-Philippe and Artois’ great uncle Pierre.  Artois played with him only to get spewed on.

Artois’ youngest son, Olivier, grew to a teenager

and Akanami and Celeste’s daughter, Celestine, grew to school age.

She’s kinda funny-lookin’.

Everyone seemed to get on well.

Jean-Pierre quickly grew to a toddler.

Homework was done.

And after a lot of time keeping and making friends, Akanami finally got promoted to Rock God.

Damien’s brood

Amphyra had gotten herself pregnant to Garrett before he moved out and married Arianne.  She had a girl called Phoenix.  She didn’t seem too bothered about it.

But Phoenix made it to toddlerhood ok.

Phoenix is now school age.

Romania’s son, Vasyl, and Demonica’s younger daughter, Babik, grew to teenagers.

Gypsy is at university.

Not good news at Ebony and Seamus’ place.  Their third daughter, Mala, appeared to be a vampire.

(Yes alright, the Sim god made her a vampire when she was born cos I was annoyed at getting a third girl.)

Heh.

Amazingly she made it to school age.

Unfortunately this means she’s close to death after every school day.  She may not survive long.

Ebony went on to have a fourth daughter.   I think I named her Begorrah, surprised at yet another girl.  Ebony is pregnant again (probably with a fifth girl), so the loss of one daughter, if Mala dies, won’t mean much.

Finally, over at Damien’s, Ginger gave birth to her third child.

Luckily for all it was a boy.  His name is Drako.

The Lillards

Alexis, as we know, is not a good mother.

Weylon isn’t much better but he made sure their second son, Wayne, at least got fed.

Wayne had to sleep wherever.

Lex grew to teenhood and read Wayne stories and took care of him.

Lex hasn’t been doing his homework so he won’t be going to university any time soon.   Wayne grew up so he no longer had to rely on parents for keeping him clean or fed.

Weylon is now president of a company.  They had enough money to move into the house next door (which belonged to Kane Danaher).  Lex and Wayne now have a bedroom each (and a train set in the basement!). 

Meanwhile, scandal at Mikhail’s place.  Mikhail became extremely suspicious when Sheila became pregnant because they hadn’t been woohooing lately.  The resultant baby, Gerald, had red hair but that didn’t mean much…

because Sheila was into red-headed men.  Yes, she’d been cheating and Mikhail found the telltale roses, etc.  He forced her out of the house and she and the sprog have been relegated to the bin.

Mikhail had an affair with Brianna Langerak and actually invited her to live with him.  After she did though, he discovered she was a day away from elderhood and he was still pretty young.  Brianna moved back in with husband, Jacques.

Champignon offshoots

Stella, living at Hollandia’s former place (when she wasn’t a zombie), died age 75.

Hollandia’s son, Mac, had grown quite fond of her so he grieved.

He grew to a teenager and still grieved.

His big sister, Tui, had already left for university.  Aiden, of course, didn’t give a damn.

Antoine and his wife’s son, Christophe, grew to toddlerhood (he’s now school age as well).

Earlier, Antoine had got rid of all graves on the property.  The ghosts were slowing time.  The ’crypt’ would now become a workshop.

Antoine and his family will also probably not be blogged about in future.

Meanwhile, Antoine’s twin sister, Antoinette, had given birth to her own child with her adopted children looking on.

In the background Edwina and Grant.  Grant is now a teenager.  The new baby, a boy, was named Luke after Brett’s father.

The house was too small for three kids so they built upstairs.

Arianne

Arianne and ex-fiance of Amphyra, Garrett, were now married and living opposite the Lillard household.

They were so into one another they were becoming one.

Pretty creepy.

Arianne became pregnant and had a boy she called Hayden.

Hayden is now actually a school child but that’s how long it is since I blogged – I’ve been playing instead.

This may be the last I blog about Artois’ illegitimate daughter.  I want to concentrate on the main categories instead of creating new sub-categories.

Birth and death

Ginger had another baby.

Unfortunately it was another girl and was named Sorrow.  That’s Elizabeth Langerak (nee Lillard) looking on.

As predicted, Hollandia came in handy as a resident nanny.

Wondering what happened to her brain perhaps? 

Unfortunately she takes a while to drag herself around so she’s fine if it’s not urgent.

Eventually Erike grew to school age and baby Sorrow grew to toddlerhood.

Sorrow didn’t get a great deal of attention from the parents or grandparents, her being another girl.  (There’s been a spate of girls lately – Amphyra had a girl, called Phoenix, and Ebony now has three girls.)

Erike is on the right with granny before growing up.  I don’t think I took a pic of her after her birthday.

Sadly, Serena was becoming increasingly nuts.  Others would put Erike in the cot and Serena would come along and take her out, even though Erike was really tired.  Damien would put her back, Serena would take her out.  This happened a few times.  Both grandparents seemed obsessed with the girl.

So I made Serena go out and have a swim in the pool that nobody uses.

Unfortunately she lost track of time and the sun came up.  She went upstairs, but instead of heading to her coffin, she headed (naturally) to Erike’s cot (again).  Her time was up.

You probably can’t see the very faint image of Serena fading away to nothing.

Damien, who had sensibly been in his coffin, got out to mourn.  He was devastated.

I kept trying to get him to go back in his coffin but he was too upset to stay there.

His stats went down and if he’s not careful he’ll be joining Serena.  But he has to wait until a DeMarr grandson is born (with any luck).  What’s the bet it’ll be another granddaughter?  After all, Damien had 5 girls before Luka was born.

Zombie mother

Hollandia, now a zombie, remembered her daughter but now has no connection with Aiden her husband.  Similarly she’s off his relationship list as well.  Their daugther, Tui, now a teenager, invited her mother over.

One look at her mother and is it any wonder that she decided to play ball with her cousin, Yve’s wife (Crystal?) instead.

You’ll notice that she’s in her undies.  I think she’d just been having it off with Aiden. 

So much for Hollandia.

I achieved the “impossible”

Gerard Langerak’s wife, Elizabeth (nee Lillard) had given birth to twins – a boy and girl named Michelle and Robert.  They weren’t the prettiest kids around – in fact Robert was damned ugly.  I decided at one point that I didn’t want them and neglected them, knowing they’d be picked up by the social worker.  But that didn’t stop me trying to kill them off by drowning or burning (I mean, who wants to adopt an ugly kid?). 

I was playing around with boolprop testingcheats enabled and discovered that a vampire could be made with a click of a button.  I made Elizabeth turn Robert into a vampire – no outward changes except perhaps a bit of smoking in the sun outside.  The social worker came anyway and took them away.  Just out of spite I turned her into a vampire as well.  Her skin went grey but that was it.

Later I felt sorry for the weeping couple.  They’d have to try for another baby.  Then I thought I may as well get the toddlers back and got Gerard’s brother, Jacques, to adopt them.

Michelle was the first baby delivered (by the vampire social worker and the sun didn’t affect her dammit) and Brianna dropped her off at Gerard’s house then went home again.  Michelle actually looks a bit like her grandmother, Monique, anyway.

The next day it was Robert’s turn.

He was still smoking.  I’d actually forgotten that I’d turned one of the kids into a vampire.  He had special powers, it seemed.

The social worker seems under his spell.

I thought I’d got a close enough shots in these pics but alas no, sorry, so you can’t see how ugly he is (eyes too close together and weird cheeks).

Little Robert’s stats were going down fast in the sun, so Brianna went off to bring him some milk and he went wandering.

The social worker returned to the car and headed off.  Robert, meanwhile…

was starving

The social worker was alerted and her car arrived.  Oh well, I thought.  It was worth the attempt.

But both the social worker and Brianna were too late to save him.

He became a pile of ashes.

Wow, I actually killed off a Sim toddler!

Brianna then swept up the ashes, put them in the rubbish and continued on with her life.

If I’d thought about it, I would have taken video, but I didn’t because I never do take videos.  Damn.  It’s an experiment worth repeating.
