I have picspam for you once again.  As soon as I've finished posting the second part of this, I can start playing again, so yay!  Looking forward to that.

Anyway, on with some picspam.  I play five houses in the university, but seem to have taken pictures in only four of them.  Never mind eh?

Princess Beatrice House.

First thing I did after making over Stephanie and Amelia, was move Bethany into the VPLs.

Photobucket

A quick snapshot of Bethany's desk:

Photobucket

She does a lot of writing, although only a quick mention of writing to her family and Celly has made it into the story.  I actually made over her bedroom in the VPLs to include a desk too.

Amelia and Stephanie have grown up really well I think, and yes, Stephanie is wearing the same dress as Sophia, but in a different colour.  I love it lots.

Speaking of Sophia, look who moved into the House once Bethany left.  Hello Sophia!

Photobucket

Quick tip on how you can tell if the Sophia in a picture is the dormie Sophia in the real hood or the clone Sophia in the dummy hood.  Dormie!Sophia doesn't wear earrings, Clone!Sophia does.  Of course, that'll change once Sophia is a playable, but at the moment, that's the way to tell.

I really should hide away a cow's head somewhere on this lot.

The VPLs.

Living there this rotation was Bethany of course:

Mini-Anne  Julia:

And Susannah, who I don't appear to have a good picture of.  Anyway, this is her with her future husband, my Mr Big.   Given the fact that her mother is an ex-slob, her marrying Mr Big made me grin.

Photobucket

There were quite a few visitors to the house this rotation:

Bethany really lives up to her Pleasure secondary and I love watching her jump in puddles.  It proves that there is part of her that just hasn't grown up.

Photobucket

I rather love Julia and the faces she pulls:

Photobucket

Sibling love:

Photobucket

Yeah, this lot does have a cow's head in it, although I never saw one of the girls pull out the gun.  The cow always ran off the lot before it got to that point.

Photobucket

So this young man with Julia is Gavin Newson, her intended.  I know that I've shown pictures of the two of them as teens in the past, but I wasn't sure if I was going to hook them up once she went to finishing school.  However, she never rolled a want for anyone but him, so I had to speed play his house to grow him up.

Photobucket

It was, erm interesting.

Very, very interesting.

Never turn your back on Bethany in the summer:

Love her so much <33333

The rotation in teh VPLs ended with both Julia and Susannah graduating.  Julia's choice of outfit was ... interesting.

It doesn't quite match the fantastical standard of Cait's Edith's outfit, but I can imagine the raised eyebrows and dropped jaws if she walked down the street in Regalton wearing it.

Susannah's outfit was much more demure, but still not suitable.

Photobucket


Prince William Halls.

Onto the last house in this bit of picspam.  I have so many from the Legacy Society, it's getting its own post you see.  The very first order of business, (before even making over Derri), was sending the boys to live over at the Legacy Society.

Photobucket

My heir is very handsome, even if I do say so myself.

Photobucket

So is Derri.  I think that this is his official portrait which will be used for the Who's Who.

Photobucket

Derri was actually a very conscientious student, and didn't mind having to write his assignments.

Photobucket

What he did mind, as did I, was the fact that other students kept sleeping in his bed.

Photobucket
Photobucket

I had him lock his door, but still found students sleeping in his bed.

It's not all hard work though:

Photobucket
Photobucket

I have quite a few tub pirates at the moment.  :D

Ok, I have to say that I LOVE the studies in the Halls.  They just look so warm and cosy. 

Photobucket

I think that the Halls is currently occupied by slobs.  I wonder if this is because the sink is in a different room, but I've not seen a dormie clear up a plate for ages.  Derri is the only one who does.

Photobucket

Derri doesn't like this sim very much at all.

Photobucket

Probably because he's the number one culprit when it comes to sleeping in his bed.

Photobucket

Aaaand that's it for this part.  Sorry for not being very eloquent, but I'm itching to get back to playing now and wanted to get this posted.  I hope you liked it though, and I'll be back with the final part soon.  :D

I completely agree - Bethany is gorgeous!

And LOL at the Newson house. It's been aaaages since I played them, but I don't recall them being quite so, erm, violent. :P

She really is. I'm very pleased with how she looks, given how strong her parents' features are.

Yeah it was a bit of a free for all. The first fire put both Ginger and Gavin into the red, and the wants they rolled weren't ones I could fulfil, so I left them to it, and that was the result.

Enjoyed the update, looking forward to more.

LOL at Newson's House of Fights and Fires, where they light the fire and put them out.

Julia looks almost smug about the outfit she transitioned into. Like she's going to enjoy it while she can.

All your sims are very good looking.

I watched The King's Speech the other night and every time the King was called Bertie, I thought of your Bertie. :)

Great picspam.

Yep, they certainly do. It was an experience playing that, even if I did tend to just let them get on with it.

Given that she's Anne's daughter, I wouldn't be surprised by that at all.

Thank you. I'm really pleased with how the genetics have turned out this generation.

Lol, I'm glad I'm not the only one who kept thinking of my Bertie while watching. XD

Thanks. One more lot to go until I can get back to playing. :D

Damn...I mean, bless you, Di! Just when I'm accepting the fact that I am playing modern sims you put out this gorgeous picspam and make me want to play my Victorians!

Tub Pirates!!

LOL, I always enjoy playing the Newsons in a Victorian setting, but I must say that they have never been as interesting as in your game :P

You have a very handsome heir :D

Aww, I'm sorry. You've still not managed to figure out what the problem is with the neighbourhood then?

Lots of tub pirates this generation. It's kind awesome.

Oh it was an experience. Like I say above, Ginger and Gavin both got into the red and wouldn't roll things I could fulfil, so both started picking fights with all and sundry.

:D Thanks. I know he looks just like his father, but he is a very handsome sim.

I'm pretty sure it's either a piece of cc or a cc conflict. But for the life of me I can't root out the problem :( When I get in the right frame of mind I'm going to do the half and half cc thing again (for the 4th time, actually), hopefully I will find out is going on.

Love the insanity at the Newson house.

Love the inappropriate grow up clothes. Oh well, it could be worse - it could always be the chicken suit!

That IS a very messy table!

And can't wait for the next bit. :D

It was completely mad, but I did leave them to it.

I do have all my Victorian clothes towniefied, but no one ever grows up into them. Actually, I don't have the chicken suit. I never preordered any of the EPS, and didn't download it when I found the rest of the preorder items over at MATY.

The halls are inhabited by slobs now. It's rather disgusting the state of the place.

Thanks!

So pretty (the pictures and your Sims - you certainly have lucked out geneticly). It's fun to see your Sims doing un-Victorian things. And I love the little clutter details in the shots - it makes it looks so much more realistic.

Bertie = very good looking. Every time I see him I'm reminded of Eddie, and therefore Beth. It's easy to tell who he's related to.

Thank you. I'm very pleased with the genetic mix I've gotten this generation.

Hee, it's fun to share them being all modern and stuff, because I can't in the story.

Thank you. I like to make the houses look lived in.

Yeah, Bertie is a facial clone of his father, who took mainly after his mother. I love it. :D
