I'm getting married in the morning...

[dicreasy2]

I made some progress with playing and getting what I need for the next chapter last weekend, and that included getting my simself hitched. It's been a long time coming and it was quite an eventful affair.

First though I had to add a simself whose been sitting in the simbin for a while to one of the simself houses. I went in to check what her LTW is (marry off 6 children. She's a knowledge sim: my LTWs are well and truly fubared), aaand this happened.



"Got your nose!"

"Hmm what?"



"No one ever thinks about Cecil's fish!"



"Urgh, they're fish. What is there to think about?"



"I'm not sure I like your attitude." *pokity poke poke*



"Wha?"



Ori pops along to try to distract Circe since she knows that Circe also has a nicepoint deficit, and won't take being poked very well.



Prof had other ideas however.

*POKE*



"Prof, maybe you should lay off the poking a bit?"

"Whatever for?"



*SHOVE*



*glare of DEATH*



"Circe, lovely as it is to see you, perhaps it's time you were off home?"

"Ori, please take your arm out of my chest."



"Opps, sorry Prof. Anyway Circe, I think you really should be going."

"Not until I've said goodbye to everyone else. "



*slappity slap slap*



*SLAP*

"You're going to have to exit without saving, aren't you Di?"

Oh yes. I'm not having these two ruin the wedding.

Circe then went inside and Prof followed her, so this happened.



Circe's been in my game for a while now, and lives in the second simself house, so she is permaplat and has a boat load of skill points that helped her to the top of her career. It really didn't surprise me that this was the outcome of the fight:



This little tussle caused them to become enemies, and I exited without saving afterwards so that I could get on with the wedding.

Every simself was teleported over, along with the legacy sims who are getting the most face time. I have so many households I've decided to narrow my focus in the chapters to the immediate spares, Theo, Louisa and Rosie's families, Stanley and any others that will round out the chapter, and/or plots/character development. For example Anne will be appearing again when Charlotta dies, to pick up on her character development and storyline. I'll keep you updated with the other sims through my rotational picspams, but otherwise I think that things will get confusing to you all and you won't know how anyone is related. I mean I've had people ask me how Stanley, Theo and Eddie are related in the past.

Anyway, as I was teleporting everyone over, it appears that Prof decided that she would once again prank someone, this time it was the other PB I have running around.



Luckily SimSarah is more even tempered than Circe and walked away before any thing else could happen.



Oh and Cait, it looks like Cee's thoughts have turned to Simshire and the Smiths.

I have to say that Prof's simself isn't the only cranky sim I have in the neighbourhood at the moment. I still haven't got to the bottom of why Rosie and Stanley hate Cyd, and for that reason I didn't invite him to the wedding. I've got the feeling that Rosie is just very cranky with everyone at the moment. I mean is this the face of a sim who has 6 nice points?



Not even Alexandra with her 1 nice point pulls faces like this.

I am very pleased with the fact that I managed to get almost everyone sitting down for the ceremony, and I didn't mind too much the three that insisted on standing.

Anyway it was attended by :



beautiful daughters from another legacy,



friends whose faces glitched into a scowl for the entire ceremony,




3-bolt stalkery couples,



sims with strict instructions to behave,



Sims with even stricter instructions to behave because I will not tolerate boingy hearts at this wedding,



legacy spares who look very worried. Bless 'er,



and a bridegroom who liked to bask in the sun. I must get that fix.

Never the less, it was a lovely ceremony.





*drool* I tell you what Doc, your genetic experimentation created one gorgeous looking sim.












With the applause dying down, things started to get a bit more like the funny weddings I normally end up with.



Subtly is not Stanley's strong point.



Not that a still glitchy Jamie cares.

Inside Indy and Di were cutting the cake.




He feeds her nicely. <3

The cake cut, the reception gets into full swing.

Outside Bee does what she does best:



Angela and Charles prove that Doc and Theo aren't the only stalkery 3 bolt simself-legacy sim couple about.



Celestia becomes the first (but not the last) guest to take a dip in the pool.



Bee continues doing what she does best.



Becca also makes new friends.



Inside Vicky and Sarah laugh about how they are wearing the same dress.



(Most of my formal gowns look bridal, so there are a lot of sims running around with the same formalwear).

Orikes gets angry sitting next to Beth. There were a number of conversations happening here and I have no idea who she was talking to.



Eddie meets someone new.



A&A make me squee.



In order to keep the kiddies amused I plonked down a playground for them.










With the kids all off playing, Charles finds the pool, and I must say I still think that he is the best looking boy from gen 3.



Vicky meanwhile does something no other member of her family has ever done before.



"This is great this is."

*sigh* This is the only computer in the whole hood and is left over from when I was getting all the simselves in this house into their careers so they could become permaplat. I forgot it was still about.

Oh and Jamie unglitched!



The pool proved to be very popular with the guests, and I was glad that it was the first day of autumn so the outside temperature was still hot.






"Damn my wife is hot when she's doing a glitchy possesed bask in sun."



"Damn my husband's hot when he is wearing his bathing suit."

Lots of heartfarting and stalking going on, but as for Stanley.



"I'm being good."

You are.

"Lots of women here I am in love with or have bolts for, but I'm not acting on them."

You aren't.

"I deserve a treat the next time you play me."

Erm, yeah I guess.



See Theo really does like to play the guitar!



I think that Peter is so sweet, and he always wants to interact with his family. I might have to cheat and make him a family sim, rather than roll like I normally do.

I also love Celestia. I have a little something in mind for her which I am very excited about. I also love her and Stuart together, and might have to rethink whether or not second cousins squick me out.



"Because I am an alien some people think that I am all rawwrr..."



"or all ooooeeeoooeeooo."



"I do not. I think that you are nice."

Oh and I have a child invisible newspaper thief.



This is Paul Boyle, and he is related to Theo and his boys. (Thomas & Jayani Harrison => Catherine & Jonathan Turner => Sophia & Aren Boyle => Paul). His family are right down in my "like to play" list for a number of reasons. Firstly despite him doing this,and his father being an ex-streaker, they are bloody boring to play. Secondly, Sophia didn't connect with anyone at the Acadamie, so I had her wish for love from a wishing well when she moved back home. Aren was the one who was dropped and he has the same face as her father. This annoyed me, but if you don't allow the kiss to go ahead, the same sim keeps getting dropped. I ended up marrying them, and because of the fact that Sophia took after her father, Paul is the spitting image of his father and grandfather. I like genetic diversity dammit.

Let's move on from that though and have some piccies of the happy couple and their wedding dance. (Yes this is their bedroom, the games room was too crowded for them to dance in).







This cracked me up. Indy kept looking at the camera and winking.



The events of the day seemed to be too much for a couple of the other residents of the house and by seven, both Lea and Gin were in bed.




The guests started to leave about eight, but there were some who stayed longer.



Patty, you have just married Vicky, do not start heartfarting my daughter.  I'm thinking about trying out the new ACR to give my spares a bit more free reign, (it seems much more customisable than the old version, and I love the idea of the friend zone.  That really would have come in handy with Stanley and Carmen at uni), but then I start to worry about them doing something silly with it, and making me angry.


Bee was a bit too pre-occupied with telling Doc about how ghosts are scary to notice though.



Oh and Jamie definitely unglitched andstarted walking around with a smile on her face.



"Of course I'm smiling, Stanley's just walked in in his bathing suit."

She didn't stay smiling for long.



"Miss Jamie I feel that if you are this tired, you shuld be thinking about retiring to your bed."



"That same advice applies to you too Miss Pen."

I found out something rather intersting during the reception too.  Visiting sims can make hot chocolate, whereas they can't make coffee.  And boy did they make hot chocolate.




As well as every tile of the kitchen floor, some of the hall outside had cups on it,a nd every clear end table or coffee table too. 

It amused me greatly to see who was left at the end of the night.  As well as Jamie and Pen who were face down in their food, there was Vicky in the hall drinking some hot chocolate...



and these party animals. 



Their respective partners had all gone home, but they remained.

The very last sim to leave?



Ah Stanley.

I've been doing a bit of building too, and I was going to share some pictures today and see if there is any interest in one of the lots, but I'm at nearly 100 pictures in this post already, so I'll put that off until another day. 

I'll leave you with this picture of SimDi, and doesn't she look happy?

Some of my sims don't seem to be behaving as their personalities suggest at the moment.

I think that the kids loved the playground, and I'll have to build another one for them somewhere.

Oh yeah, I would have punished Stanley somehow if he had ruined the wedding, but since he was a good boy, he's going to get a treat instead.

I have so few formal gowns there was no way that everyone is going to have unique one. Your simself is wearing the same dress as Alexandra and Lea and has her hair in the same style as Doc. If you look at the pictures of William and Beth clapping, you can see her over his shoulder.

I wondered about that one. Cool. Thanks for the help!
