6.07 – The Bride Wore Yellow

Previously, Story and Velma each had a baby boy; Frank and Riff Raff. And…not a whole lot else, actually. It’s an exciting time for the family, lots of documenting!

It’s been so hot lately that I haven’t been game to open my game for long – laptop gets so hot so quickly. This week, it’s been over 30° Celsius every day (that’s about 85° Fahrenheit for my American readers), with today (Thursday) getting up to 40°C (104°F). Have one more chapter after this one, them I’m caught up with where I am in game! Not sure how long this heatwave will last, so don’t know when I’ll next be able to play. Thank goodness for air-conditioned offices!

We open with another maxed skill, well done Seaweed! He’s been almost as prolific as his mother with the skilling.

Brillo…not so much with the skilling. That’s okay, I’m just focusing on her finishing her LTW.

Kelly is still working on her drum skill – complete with ghostly grandmother watching.

And Velma is at the gym, working on a celeb opportunity. So many athletic points from these ops.

Every single day. They’re so in love.

Velma is still working on her career – we don’t need the money, but I’ve never done the sculpting career, so. This is L6, I believe.

Ooh, new simself baby!

Skilling magic is hard. And repetitive. Story is only about L4 or so, and she need L8 to get the Sunlight charm so she can begin her LTW.

LMAO, I love that Lola is still a toad.

Since Billy maxed his one skill required before YA, he’s free to do whatever. And he likes to dance!

At least Story is doing well in her career, so she’ll help us fulfil the generation requirements – this is L2, after only a few days.

Ooh, new grandchildren for Seaweed and Brillo!

I wanted another photo before the triplets move out, so the family went to the festival. Velma collected eggs and Story skated while they waited for the others to bring the babies from home.

Aw, only 8 sims are allowed in the greeting card booth – Billy got left out.

Velma and Story try out the love tester.

Ooh, I haven’t seen this one before, nice! Also LMAO, love tester and the claw machine.

Autonomous Dip kiss!

Aw, Billy’s face paint failed. Still, the camo works for him.

Kelly dances alone, despite the mean outdoors.

Seaweed and Flynn play horseshoes.

And Seaweed loves the attention from the paparazzi.

Aw, this is the first greeting card without Cosette. I only started collecting them when she was a child – shows how long she lasted.

The next day is love day!

And wedding day! The setup looks out over the water, the gorgeous view.

While sending the invites, Velma heartfarts Sabrina *facepalm*

So as to not birthday all over the wedding party, the way Velma did to her parents, we have a birthday for the boys in the morning. Yes, both will be aged up together – they’re only about 12 hours apart anyway, so we’ll raise them as twins.

Everyone got out of bed to celebrate with them.

Frank sparkles first.

He got the freckly skin! Random blue eyes and black hair, but those are definitely the huge Rourke eyes. He’s the one who likes Seafoam, thus seafoam overalls.

Before Riff Raff can even sparkle, Frank hauls out his IF.

Also freckly! And also has the Rourke eye shape, with Seaweed/Cosette/Yttrium’s gold colour. His hair colour is Brillo’s; kind of sad it’s not Story’s, but that’s okay. Aqua overalls for this boy.

Cooot!

Uhm Billy? That’s your mother…stop being creepy.

Velma gets right onto teaching skills; cutie pouting Riff Raff!

But before long, she’s distracted by all the lurve in the air.

In her very cool athletic outfit, Story teaches Frank to walk.

Moar babies in the hood! This bodes well for the spares of this generation.

Uhm…what? I have never seen this before, Billy just queued it up randomly. I X-ed it out…but now kind of wish I’d allowed it, just to see what happened.

Aw, Roxie broke up with her baby daddy.

Time to get ready for the wedding! Uhm…Velma, that ain’t your formal.

Photobomb level: Toad.

We have plenty of food, but thanks Roxie. It seems she hasn’t yet popped her pregnancy – no way a bump would fit in that skin tight dress.

Oops, vampires at an afternoon wedding, not such a good idea. I’m surprised William Fangmann showed up, given Roxie’s here.

Making her way to the aisle, Story heartfarts her fiancee’s ex-girlfriend. Oh, Sims.

Then again, when your fiancee is doing this at the altar…

Zomg, most people found seats! Kelly and Seaweed far away from the altar, but that’s okay. And the dog there? That’s Sabrina’s dog, his name is Moody. He couldn’t stay home, Sabrina?

He doesn’t like the vampires… Also, Esk is overwhelmed by all the people, while Billy fails to chair.

Most of the guests made it to the table to watch the cutting of the cake.

Though Velma let her new bride do the hard work.

Both girls got cake before the route fails started.

Hey, Jenn and Alyssa both made it to the party! Though I still haven’t seen Sabrina… (also Jenn, want to share some news? I see that thought bubble.)

These three got glitched, and stood there clapping/idling for hours.

In an effort to ease the cake congestion, Brillo laid out food for some of the guests.

And right after the wedding, it was prom time for the triplets! No dates, because most of the teens are now YA. The kids were already in their formal outfits, so they just ran down the street to the limo – cars never stop in front of the house, not sure why.

Story tried to talk to the celeb vampire whose name I forgot…but she wasn’t able to fit the glitch. I eventually had to reset all three of them.

Velma made friends with Charlotte and Sean – always good to make friends with the long-lived simselves. (oops, walls down!)

While Story befriends Jenn.

And Jenn is really interested in Story’s house.

Then they gossiped about…some random in the military?

And we decided Jenn needs to find love, so Story helps.

Love Spell!

Prom popups.

Kelly was the only one to get an RI, but she still had a miserable time – didn’t even get a “first kiss” moodlet.

Naw, the boys are cute in their matching PJs.

Sean stayed the night in the rocking chair, watching over them. Not at all creepy.

 

That’s it for now! Next time, the triplets finally age up to YA.
