2.6 Where Were We Again...?

Hai guyz.

It's been awhile.

I sowwy.


So, where did we leave off? Oh yeah. Here. Everyone is in pieces over our founder's death. Poor little Paula misses her grandma something fierce. Cuddles, on the other hand...not so much.

On the spares side of things, happy news! ^_^

I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS IS SIGNIFICANT.

Or this. But I just got super sad seeing poor Xav sleeping by himself D:

Oh hai durr :] Our future gen 3 heir had his teen birthday! Upon aging up, Yestin gained the...dramatic trait! Oh boy. Let's recap his traits: hates the outdoors, absent minded, kleptomaniac and now dramatic. Gen 3 is going to be so much fun. Getting clooooseeerrrr!

Look outside! Snow! Yeah, it still makes my game lag like CRAP buuuut...seasons :(

The computer continues to be an attention grabber.

I received this notice awhile later. Apparently when they got married they weren't quite ready to move in together...?

Still the only one who could find the time to clean the house, an exhausted Terri made use of her genie powers to make the house clean and sparkly. 

Meanwhile, Cuddles and his little girl have a pleasant chat about the snow. Which, as you can see out the window, has already melted.

Xavier's kids do a great job of calling and keeping in touch with their father :) It's sweet! This particular phone call is from Virginia.

Paula broke the shower. Again.

 But she made up for it that night by being super cute while she slept :)

 Xavier has pretty much given up on life since Sasha's passing. He refuses to shower and will likely be losing his job any day now because he also refuses to go to work. He just sits at that computer, the last place Sasha sat before her time in Moonlight Falls ended. (Wow. Way to depress everyone, self.)

 In all actuality, that was a little dramatic. He still showers...sometimes. And he does still eat. Though he refuses to eat any leftovers, he always has to cook something new for himself.

 Yestin is already starting to settle into the tasks that he'll inherit as the heir of generation 3. He does a pretty good job of keeping the dog's food bowl filled as well as doing the dishes.

 Terri finally got around to fixing that shower!

 PAULA. I can't stay be mad at you for breaking every appliance you ever touch EVERY time you touch it if you're going to pull stuff like this and do your homework in an adorable dinosaur costume!

 At least she does her homework. Yestin does not. Instead, he works out. 

Yestin: You're, uh...you're really stretching to fill space in this update aren't you?

Hey, it's not my fault you guys are boring me to death. This has literally been THE most boring week in their lives, like, ever.

 Diiiiinoooosaaaauuurrrr...

MILO!!! Awwwww...this is super cute and super sad at the same time D:

Back inside, Xavier decided to give little Anubis a bath. Which was really bittersweet considering his old buddy Milo was outside :( Oh well...still pretty darn cute.

The next morning, while paying the bills, Terri found some pretty Indian Blanket flowers in the yard and decided to pick one :)

They made a nice little addition to the living room!

Uh oh! Apparently Fiona and Jody are looking for a new place but not having much luck...

Xavier enjoyed himself one last run on the guitar before getting ready for work.

And then...sadness D:

Poor Terri was beside herself with grief. But Xavier actually seemed pretty content with the idea! I like to think he was excited about the idea of seeing his beloved Sasha again :)

Umm...wrong room, Grimmy...

Oh. So...that thing I said about being content with it being his time and all? Yeah...scratch that D:

Unfortunately, the end came for Xavier, and his tombstone was placed next to his love's in the backyard. He followed Sasha's lead and lived to be 109 days old! I found it actually kind of cute that they both lived the same amount of days. Terri took the honors of engraving his epitaph, a simple little message that states:

"Here lies Xavier Andrie, always loved."

And as sad as I am to see him go, I'm predicting a very happy reunion between Xavier, Sasha and Milo :)


And with that, let's take a look at our scorecard! Nothing to add this time around. Sorry that chapter was overly pretty boring...but tune in next time to see how Yestin's prom night goes, and watch as we close in on the final days of Terri's reign as heir!

2.5 Complete and Utter Chaos!

So let's just do a little birds eye view of the house at this point, because what I saw when my game loaded was pretty chaotic on its own. As you can see, the sink is busted and apparently has been for some time going by the massive water puddle on the floor. Sasha is cooking, thankfully, because her plumbob is dangerously red due to her hunger, energy, fun AND bladder needs being so low. Also, there are spoiled bowls of mac n cheese on both the counter and the table. Looks like our current heir has some work cut out for her when she wakes up!

Of course, Terri wakes up shortly after and basically gives a big middle finger to Sasha's hard cooking work by summoning some perfect quality autumn salad. AUTUMN SALAD?! You have the ability to summon perfect quality meals of ANY kind, and you choose the most easy, simple dish that one can't possibly screw up. You disappoint me.

Sasha had no complaints about her daughter's choice of food because she was starving. And, logically, when you're cooking and someone else brings/summons better quality food that you can eat right then without having to wait, you should leave whatever you were cooking in the stove unattended. *Fume*

Commence the family freak out session. Or something like that.

Yestin & Paula: *Screaming bloody murder*

Sasha: OH MY GOD!!! THE SINK IS STILL BROKEN!!! (Cause that's the part the matters.)
Terri: Uuuugggghhh mooooooom! I was gonna freak out where you're standing! Now I have to freak out over here!

Cuddles: Like a boss.

Of course, the fireman showed up too late, thanked Cuddles for doing his job, and then scolded them for starting a fire in the first place. Terri did Sasha a favor and got that all-important sink fixed.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the room, Anubis is blissfully unaware of anything other than how much fun his chew toy is :)

Soon after, Yestin peed himself. He was humiliated. His father, on the other hand, was pretty proud of him.

In the bedroom, Sasha continued the Andrie family tradition of passing out two feet from her own bed.

Then she woke up, walked to the living room and...passed out. Again. Yestin followed suit as well. (You'll note that Terri had finally had a chance to clean up the massive sink puddle!)

Happy news on the spares front! Our first spares wedding :)

Of course, living in a house where only one sim has any physical control means that it doesn't take long at all before the house is a filthy mess again. It DOES take long (almost completing a generation) for this simmer to remember that genies have the ability to magically clean the house and make it sparkly. 

This photo is to signify that our dear founder, miss Sasha, has officially been alive for 105 days! It seems she's just not ready to go yet. But, by the looks of it, Terri wishes that her stink cloud would...

Shortly after Xavier burned his pancakes, Cuddles had to come kick him while he was down and scare the daylights out of him!

And lo! It appears the eldest of Sasha's children has finally found a love of her own! Turns out she wasn't after Terri's man after all, as it seems she plays for the other team ;) Too bad her love is some old lady who will probably die in a week knowing my luck :( But oh well! Yay love!

Being an all powerful genie who can cook and clean at the snap of a finger is hard work, man.

Sasha waits to die entertains herself by chatting with a friend online. (She is currently 107 days old in this photo.)

Meanwhile, Paula entertained herself with her imaginary friend while Yestin staked his claim on the doll house.

As you can see, Xavier's made zero progress on his career. He still has days where he doesn't even go. This particular day, however, he did. And upon returning, he received a call from Virginia! The two had a lively chat about the theater.

The Andries had a ghostly visitor that night!! MIIIILOOOO!!!! 

His first order of business was to haunt the dresser in his old best buddy's room. I think Milo misses his Xavier :(

He then went and took a little nap on Terri and Cuddles' bed :)

The following morning, Sasha received a call from her son Roy! Their discussion consisted of fishing.

I received notice that Virginia's son had aged into a child, so I went over to have a peek. Still quite the cutie :) Now I'm impatiently waiting for her and Tristan to have one of their own!

Meanwhile, outside, this happened. Cause I didn't have enough fails to add as it was.

Yay! More happy news from the spares side of things :)

Alas, the joy couldn't last for long. After 109 days of living, our dear founder's time came to move on. 

Terri was at work, but the rest of the family came to bid Sasha farewell. It was a peaceful goodbye, and Sasha drifted into her tombstone at peace.

And then A LOT OF THIS HAPPENED. Oy.

Sasha's tombstone was placed next to little Milo's in the back yard. I allowed Xavier to engrave her epitaph, which so eloquently reads:

"Here lies Sasha Andrie, a founder forever loved."

And on that note, I leave you all for the evening! Let's take the massive axe to our scorecard...this isn't gonna be pretty :(
