5.07 – Freckly Festival

Previously, Brillo gave birth to a baby girl named Velma. She then threw a bachelorette party, where the simselves showed off their dance moves. Flamingo died, and Cosette couldn’t bring herself to join the festivities at her son’s wedding because of it. While the wedding reception was still on, Velma aged up to an adorable freckled toddler with her daddy’s hair and her momma’s eyes. A very eventful few days!

After all the party guests have left, Seaweed and Brillo (Brillweed is their couple name :)) celebrate their first night as husband and wife by watching the stars together.

Only to be interrupted by Seaweed’s Adult birthday.

But it doesn’t kill the mood for long.

Marriage is officially consummated.

Meanwhile, Cosette tries to forget her grief by playing with her granddaughter.

And then she begins teaching Velma to talk.

Brillo has been working on her LTW; we’re up to stealing cars now!

She’s $14k in, yay!

Even took Sabrina’s car – sorry Sabrina!

Seaweed is surveillance in the graveyard.

Velma cuteness:

Brillo interrupts this cuteness for some potty training.

And a cuddle.

Lol, she’s fawning over her ring.

These guys and their reading.

Simselves continue to throw themselves at Seaweed.

Flamingo is back, only a few days after he died! He goes right back to enjoying the water, as before.

All those sculptures the family bought to bring the art gallery up to three stars are coming in useful – they count towards Brillo’s LTW 🙂

Cosette is still addicted to jellybeans; she has a wish to eat 50 now.

These two like to enjoy one another’s company also. Thank goodness I turned off risky woohoo!

Velma is a cranky little thing; at least she’s cute.

Ohnoes, run Cosette!

Good girl!

It’s raining, but the family is still going off to the Spring Festival, since it’s Love Day.

The greeting card sure has changed a lot since the last one.

Seaweed and Cosette hunt eggs while Brillo tries garlic fries.

She then got her face painted; I chose a unicorn.

Look who’s here – this is Tamara Rourke, Penny’s only child. She has a lot of Hank Zale in her.

Brillo then buys a kiss from the Face One attendant. Velma isn’t enjoying her day out, though.

Hank is here, too – Cosette chooses to play horseshoes on her own, though.

Seaweed and Brillo try out the love tester.

LMAO, I haven’t seen this popup before! You guys definitely picked the right one.

They both got this really cute moodlet.

The descendants of the simselves are moving in on the Rourke family; this is Penny’s son with Julia’s daughter.

Also at the festival today is Kiana Serzo, Sabrina’s daughter. She’s a vampire like her mother. She’s doing her homework at the festival; like no RL teen ever.

Despite a whole bunch of tables, she chose to sit right at Seaweed’s feet. Sim logic.

Cosette took a very tired Velma home, then spent the afternoon chatting with the magic mirror.

Not sure if I mentioned it previously, but Brillo has a couple of other RIs in her panel. I can’t remember this guy’s name, but he’s the first.

He was not impressed.

Cosette is not nearly as good at the water slide as her husband.

Seaweed got the Oh My Ghost! opportunity! He won’t be bringing Flamingo back, but we’ll keep it on hand in case anyone dies prematurely (then again, some different coloured ghosts could be fun).

As he wished it, Seaweed teaches Velma to walk.

What a difference 10 days makes; we lost Flamingo but gained Brillo and Velma.
I’m really regretting not getting any photos in between those two spring photos on the left; these greeting cards are such a good timeline for the family.

Since I leave her mostly on freewill, Cosette spends a lot of time fawning over her granddaughter.

And she has another two now – this makes 5 for each of Penny and Maybelle.

Just your typical Saturday afternoon; mom reading, dad training the toddler.

Complete with grandmother eating jellybeans.

In between looking after Velma, Seaweed has been skilling his logic. So much so that he earned a promotion! This is L9, I believe.

It was high time he took another PI case, so here we go. This one is about Penny!

Seaweed meets her at her house to talk about it.

Giles is also home, he’s carrying their youngest, Christopher. Looks like little Chris got daddy’s eyes.

Even though they’re home, Seaweed has to search the trash.

Lol, Penny is too intense? No way!

Brillo also got a job; she’s going to be in the criminal career. Help her do something else besides skilling all the time.

Cutie Velma is happy this time.

And glitchy another time. My game seems to be missing the “read toddler to sleep” animation.

To save her from the jellybeans, Seaweed has taken up playing chess with his mother.

 

And we’ll leave things there. Next up, Velma becomes a child and Seaweed tops the PI career.
