Chapter 20: Anger, Anger, and Exhaustion

"So, is it going to be weird for us, with my mother dating your grandfather?"

"Your mother dates pretty much everyone, Jamie," Tamira shrugs, "You should be more worried about the fact that your mother is the only Sim in Lucky Palms who is on my father's enemy list."

"Your dad hates my mom?" This is news to Jamie.

Tamira nods, "Apparently he saw your mom kissing Kamala's husband Alvaro way back when he was a teen, and he's never gotten over it."

It's true, Kiran loathes Alisha Lancaster. Has a red map tag for her and everything. But he never got mad at Alvaro for that kiss. It's also true that Alisha dates everyone. She was on again, off gain with Jamie's father, Donovan Steel (who also dated everyone), but never settled down with anyone. Surprisingly, she and Donovan had two kids together, Jamie and his sister Athena, and never had kids with anyone else.

Not surprisingly, Tamira rolls lots and lots of wishes about Jamie. Massage, play gnubb, but not that marriage wish I'm waiting for.

And when she's not wishing things about him, she's glomping him autonomously.

Sitara is working on her last book to fulfill her wish to write 5 books. She's mostly been writing drama, but somewhere in there she unlocked the ability to write poetry. So Sitara is now contributing to the universe's supply of poetry written by teenage girls with  her volume of verse entitled Girls Die Like Rough Seashells.

Anger, anger, and exhaustion.

The rain works like a dry window.

Never hustle a flower.

Why does the girl gab?

Skyscrapers grow!

I usually use a random book title generator for my Sim book titles, but for poetry I'm using a random poetry generator and taking one of the lines it spits out for titles. Magic voice loves random generators. Sitara's poem is also a product of random generation.

"So, woohoo nao?" Jamie is already playing the role of my heir spouse perfectly. Though he has yet to move into the household. *pokes Tamira*

"Cool your jets, magic voice. I just aged up yesterday."

Sorry. I have these plans, but I have to wait for you to get Jamie in the household.

"Plans? What plans?"

Uh, you didn't hear that. Carry on.

Kiran ages up that night while eating leftover birthday cake from Tamira's birthday.

Chelsea is next. And, the pigtails make a brief appearance.

Sorry Chelsea, you aren't a middle aged man, that hairstyle is not for you.

Kiran, Leader of the Free World, gets a midlife crisis. Chelsea does not.

"I'm fulfilled by constant woohoo. In fact, I'm going to get some now." Chelsea drags Kiran off to bed.

After their own woohoo, Tamira and Jamie watch the stars together. Then she goes to bed, leaving Jamie to wander around the house in his underwear.

Everyone is asleep. Jamie is skinny dipping in the hot tub.

Tamira wakes up at dawn with a pressing urge to travel with Jamie. It's not a marriage wish, but it works. She can only travel with him if he's part of the household, so she asks him to move in.

By now, Jamie is starving and exhausted. He gets to eat and get in a little sleep before his carpool comes to take him to his science career job. He drops into bed again as soon as he gets home.

Next morning , it's off to China, where Tamira and Jamie wish for absolutely nothing interesting. Tamira pulls out her bass, and Jamie broods for awhile. Eventually, he wishes to go to the market.

Tamira gets hit on by a local. Then she skinny dips in every pool in the marketplace.

Jamie wishes to visited the graveyard. Tamira wishes to go on a date with Jamie. We compromise.

This picture pretty much sums up the excitement of this trip. I ecstatically lock in the first wish to go back home.

Yay! We're back in Lucky Palms!

"Okay, bird, I'm going to stick you in my back pocket now."

When Jamie moved in, I also nabbed one of the four cats living in his house, Magic Lancaster. Magic is apparently invisible. 

He later manifested in physical form after I reset him.

Spooky day festival.

Carlos Tanner and Jamie are thinking appropriately spooky thoughts for this holiday, but the other pie eating contestant thinks it's Love Day.

Tamira wishes to throw a costume party, so they go home to set that up.

"You taste like pie."

"No, you taste like pie."

Just as the party is starting, Jamie and Tamira beeline for her father's bed. Then they stand for a ridiculously long time.

Because, costumes.

Monica shows up in a military costume. Because her hair is a conversion of ME3's Ashley Williams, Alliance Marine and everyone's favorite space racist, I giggle for awhile.

Where is the grimy door?

Never grab a flower.

Death, desolation, and desolation.

Damn, work!

Sitara has aged up to YA, but hasn't given up her poetic muse.

"I'm going to bed. I'm exhausted."

Somebody took a nap last night instead of going to bed, then decided to paint until noon.

Also, this is the first age up pictureI  have of Sitara, in her Mike Meyers mask. Sorry.

Walk quietly like a old driver.

Lights run!

O, death!

Oh, desolation!

O, anger!

And here's our founder, Suchandra, dressed as a hotdog.

So, Tim, are you too sexy to wear a costume?

"Yes, but I'm wearing one anyway. So, where's Sitara?"

Napping.

"Well, wake her up! I want to see how she aged up."

You want to drag her off for woohoo in her parents' bed.

"Yes, please."

Speaking of party woohoo, Tamira and Jamie have snuck off for theirs. In their own bed, even.

Sitara finally wakes up to join the party.

"Hot costume!"

"It's my nightie."

"Still, hot!"

The dead flower quietly gets the car.

Never grab a jackhammer.

Lt. Commander Ash, I mean, Monica, comes in for some cock blocking. Tim positions his head to get a view of Sitara's ass.

Sadly, Tim never does get any at this party. Damn you, Monica!

Hot dog and Cat Girl hop into bed. That's Orlando and Shelly, though for a moment I thought Suchandra was getting some.

Kesari goes off to age up in private.

"It's not like you guys even remembered my birthday was today."

Sorry. Was caught up in Spooky Day stuff.

We'll end this chapter with a picture of Chelsea mongling a plate.

In case you are wondering, she decided to yawn while en route to put this plate in the fridge. 

_______________________

Okay, so Big Announcement Time!

I got Dragon Valley, and I really want to play it. Since Jamie's LTW is to do the alchemy thing, I decided it would be fun to move this legacy there to indulge his whim.

After Tamira rolled a wish that worked for getting Jamie in the house, I was ready to go. Except, I also didn't want to lose Sitara and Tim. I had decided I would take Sitara, but getting Tim to come along would mean waiting for Sitara to roll a wish for him to move in, or using Porter to move him to his own place in DV. And then I started thinking about who else I could porter along, and my list was ridiculously long. There are so many Sims here I don't want to lose touch with. And portering them al would just make DV over-populated.

Also, I put  lot of work into fixing up LP, and I hated to just abandon it.

So, a Big Decision was reached. Tamira and Jamie will be portered to DV alone, where they will start their own wishacy.

And Sitara will takeover as the Gen 3 heir of this wishacy.

Which means, I'll be starting yet another blog. I know, crazy. But, I really want to play both towns, and even after choosing Tamira as heir, I still wanted Sitara and Tim, too. (Assuming Sitara eventually does get Tim on a permanent basis.) 

As soon as I get the new blog set up, I'll post a link here.
