6.12 – Romance in the Air

Previously, Velma completed her LTW, and all four children had birthdays. At the birthday party of Magenta, Frank and Riff Raff, Brillo Pad died and a gigantic fire threatened to turn the party guests crispy.

Hi all, apologies for the month-long wait, I’ve not had much time to play recently, and even less time to write everything up. But now I have 3 chapters ready, and then it’s heir poll time (finally). Velma’s generation has been the longest yet! Though part of that is the slightly shorter chapters (80 pics versus 100), these guys have also been much more interesting than the first few generations, thus more pics.

Rocky bein’ cute with his xylo.

I’m really liking the hot pink and spice brown bedroom, so Rocky and Magenta will continue to share. Chance stole Magenta’s new big girl bed the second I placed it.

Story asks Riff Raff his gender preference.

Straight!

He then tries to cheer up his mother.

She’s not having any of it.

So he cries on her shoulder instead.

Poor Seaweed has taken to talking to his magic mirror about his heartbreak.

Riff Raff asked Story to teach him to drive…then took off on the broom by himself. You can see his skillbar here; he’s learning even though he’s alone. Gotta love glitches.

Frank, on the other hand, went the traditional route of learning. With a jelly-bean-ified Seaweed teaching.

Story got a promotion; this is level 6. Getting closer to computers!

The littlest kids play together at the activity table.

Flynn gives Seaweed his 10th grandchild. Guess it’s easy when you have 5 children of your own.

Simselves hook up!

Since she’s Eccentric, Magenta’s skill will be Inventing. I have no doubt she will be able to max this out in no time.

Seaweed helps out with Rocky’s skilling. So helpful having grandparents around!

Wishing to be best friends with both of your parents? Way to fail at being a brooding rebellious teenager, Riff Raff.

New metal man!

And with the completion of this sculpture, Velma completes two sculpting challenges! These are for completing 5 of each type of material and also 35 total sculptures.

I’m loving the chance cards that come with the Business career, so much fun.

Roxie is making nice with Jupiter, who I had earmarked for Kelly, but whatever.

Flynn is also finding love, yay!

Still working on his logic skill, Frank is rotating between all the skilling objects.

Magenta is adorable, playing in the tub.

Finally up to the correct level in her spellcasting, Story can begin working on her LTW. First, we turn the guy into a frog.

Then administer the Sunlight Charm!

1 down!

Flynn is the first of Velma’s siblings to get engaged.

Wha?

Frank goes to Business school, it doesn’t start until 10am, and it’s only 9:30. He’s not skipping school! Stupid game.

Velma has been sculpting up a storm, and surpassed $25k from her sculpting. So she got a medal. Unfortunately, there was no ceremony outside the hall, so I didn’t bother to take any pictures.

So now she’s working on ice, trying for unmeltable ice sculptures.

Though we still have time for playing with the kids.

Two promotions in one update, go Story!

This lovely lady with the very prominent cheekbones is Jill Slayer-Bloom.

Riff Raff befriends her in the usual way for this generation.

Then he asks her to prom.

She said yes!

He then wanted to watch the stars with her.

And kiss her.

Success!

Seaweed is not immune to Story’s magic.

She’s making progress on her LTW.

Hai Brillo!

Seaweed is very happy to see his wife again.

Roxie and Flynn are progressing with their love lives.

This is Jeanne Xu, another option for Frank’s love life. Cheri Serzo is my first choice, but she’s not co-operating.

Jeanne is pretty cute, and Frank seems to like her.

Instant friends 😀

They’re both family oriented!

And they have compatible signs.

However, Frank is unable to ask her to the prom, so we’ll have to see how things go.

While Frank is outside, we have a little family gathering inside – it’s Rocky’s birthday! Story is really excited to be free of diapers.

He rolled Diva for his child trait.

And he’s so cute! Story’s eyes and mouth, everything else is Velma’s.

That same night is also prom! Not sure how Jeanne ended up in the limo, she’s definitely not Frank’s date. Maybe because she was at the house when prom time came?

Jill was a date, but did not end up in the limo.

And yet she was apparently at prom…even as I watched her eating food and bumming around the legacy house. Ah, game be fun sometimes. (Seriously, I got zero popups for Riff Raff that were not about Jill. Boy really likes her)

Having no date, Frank’s prom was somewhat less successful…but he did beat his brother out for Prom King.

He also got himself a romantic interest. I haven’t checked his gender preference, but I’m guessing gay or bi, since his new RI is a male.

While her kids are having fun at prom, Velma dances for celebrity points. I love the club dance animations.

One last popup before I end the chapter; Roxie is engaged!
