Since I'm already on the Seraph spinsters lot, I might as well start here. The goal here is to determine if Coeus registers as family to Lepus. In the real world he's be her half uncle. If that's the case, she'll have to seek a mate in Hyperion, her great grandfather. I know, this is all so very disgusting. She quits her job as a game designer since no one in Ebonwood needs a job, they're all so filthy rich, and takes to the cafe in hopes of meeting a man. Oh, that's right, I wanted to delete the townies and NPCs. Eighty-six sims are quite enough. Lepus ran into Ares, Athena, Themis and Stella; she got acquainted with Stella. The girls actually hit it off very well. Fast friends. Before too long, Lepus had to head back home to rejuvenate; eat, sleep, shower, all that.
In the meanwhile, Terpsichore got reacquainted with Auriga, a close friend and perhaps the one that turned her into a werewolf? I'm not sure. And Tucana finally got her dream job in Dance. She'll be permaplat in no time. The two plant ladies waste no time getting to know each other and become bosom buddies lightning fast. The next morning Lepus wasted no time inviting over her new friend, Stella and her family. Poxy. Coeus registers as family. He does not, however, to Tucana, of whom talks him up rather eagerly and they play some chess. Lepus might as well play wing-man and keeps Stella entertained. Not exactly how I planned, but I'll take it. Lepus goes out on the town again, and runs into Raphael and Anteros. Anteros could serve as a possible fling. She needs a man! Someone to pass on that lovely green and pointy ears! Where's Hyperion?! Actually, Anteros has pointy ears, as well. Poor Terpsichore, no job, no love interest. We'll try to introduce her and Hyperion anyway. And the easiest way I know how to do that is for her to spy on him via the telescope. So he'll rush over and shove her. Not the best introduction, I'll admit, but sure fire... or not so sure fire. That's weird. I'm almost outraged. Almost. It means she's either a decent sim or he's at work.
Oh my gosh, or I could check Terpsichore's relationship panel and discover that she already knows him! Gosh darn it. Oh, gee. Tucana too, and she even has a good rapport with him! Well, that's just dandy. So Tucana invited Hyperion and Oceanus over, because Terpsichore needs some attention, too. She also asked Coeus out on a date, which he accepts. Huh, I thought he'd be outraged. He's such a family-oriented man. This just got very interesting. Well, damn. Lepus and Hyperion don't like each other at all. Let's see if I can fix that with a Re-Nu-Nu potion. Oceanus and Terpsichore don't register as family, either. Wow! Three babies. That's going to be a lot of work! What am I doing? Lepus was the only one that was supposed to have a kid... But... I just can't help myself! This is going to mess up my numbers so bad.Oh dear, Lepus and Hyperion can not get on the right foot with each other. Everything she tries is met with resistance. I forgot I made him a complete asshole. Tucana and Coeus' date couldn't go any freakin' smoother. She shared her first kiss with a married man. I'm going to need more cradles. Terpsichore begins moving in on Oceanus, as Tucana lures Coeus into the bedroom and Lepus was finally able to to make some headway with Hyperion after she got naked in the hot tub. Oh my gosh, I'm running a whore house. After the night was over and the Cygnus men went home, I'm a little ashamed to say Lepus passed out in the unmade bed Tucana and Coeus made love in. I should save. And after half a week with her half sister and distant cousin, I thought it was time for Lepus to at least be friends with her house mates. All three spent the day relaxing in the hot tub.
A few days later Terpsichore asked Oceanus out on a date and they shared her first kiss. Ah me, strange love. She keeps wanting to turn him into a werewolf, though and I can't abide by that. Her want must go un-obtained and that puts a damper on the date. She finally got her dream job in Science, though, just as Tucana tops hers, earning her permaplatness and quits. Perfectly delightful. She's in love with Oceanus. Tucana's in love with Coeus. All I need for to happen now is for Lepus and Hyperion to fall in love and bingo; baby-making time. I know I'm kind of crazy, but I want them to get pregnant all around the same time. At least on the same day.To kill their nights and pass their days, Tucana and Terpsichore have been earning their badges in pottery and seamstressing. Lepus, still un-maxed in her skills has been grinding those out and decorating the modest nursery. Coeus asked Tucana out on a date Downtown, and I couldn't say no. The two are more in love than Terpsichore and Lepus with their beaus. This is most dangerous, because of all the playables to enter a community lot, Stella is by far the most frequent. Eh heh. They did the deed in the photo-booth while a mob of people cheered them on. They wanted to do it again even! Well, I didn't want to push my luck and preferred to enact their love in a private domain. So I ended the date, dreamy after such an act, and headed home. No baby-making tonight! Lepus and Hyperion still need to fall in love. (Fat chance, they have negative bolts for each other.)
Oh shit! Lepus is being abducted! No harm done. Terpsichore and Tucana cheered at her experience. Traumatizing though it may have been. She cried the next morning... I mean really, really cried. I felt a little awkward. Poor thing. Molested by her own kind. That's so not right.Whoops, no, let's no let Terpsichore and
Tucana fall in love. That would be confusing. Even in darling. Alright! It's Monday, a complete week after I've played the lot. Time to invite Hyperion over and, with any luck, make some kiddies! Despite their supposed negative bolts, the two look completely enamored with each other. Hyperion is such a fox. They so have unprotected woohoo. Their union is a success!
Tucana invites Coeus over for an evening in Lepus' bed, as well, their union also being a success. And Terpsichore, taking cues form her sisters, follows in suit perfectly. She invites over her lover, Oceanus and takes him to bed. Her conception was not as easy as her sister's but successful, nonetheless. All the Seraph wenches are with child. Terpsichore reached the top of her career track, promptly quit her job, as I'm fairly certain $649,608 will sustain three bastard children. I know that seems like an insult, but in all seriousness, three self-made women, living together no less, could raise three kids rather adequately, especially when they can afford to spend every moment, waking and otherwise, with said children. By self-made I mean these women make bank. Serious bank, and I know from experience that, when one lives sensibly, a little money goes a long way. I'm just saying it's possible.
Anyway, Lepus goes into labor. A boy, how delightful. The child's name is Lupus. I gather you can determine it means Wolf. And realize, of course, aliens can hold their offspring to their bosom without restraining their hands, as Lepus demonstrates thus. Herald! The fourth child of this, Ebonwood, our neighborhood's founder, Hyperion! That line needs some work. The next to enter labor was Tucana. A boy, as well, and named Gemini, to my delight, a green-skinned child with blue eyes. Again, following suit, Terpsichore gives birth. Also a blue eyed, green-skinned gem, his name, Sextans. Three boys, oh my.Monoceros and his wife, Asteria stopped by. They played kissy-face while the women of the house tended to their needs and children. The boys grow into toddlers and damn it, they are all dangerously adorable... Wait, I have three toddlers in my house. From whore house to daycare center in one fell swoop. Let's give you the numbers: Gemini, result of Coeus and Tucana, is a Pisces, 8/7/9/1/9. Lupus, spawn of Hyperion and Lepus is a Taurus, 8/5/9/10/3, and Sextans, Oceanus' EIGHTH child, is a Taurus, but with much less impressive numbers. 5/87/2/7/6. Each kid got a dose of the smart milk, and learned the basics by sun up the next morning. I'll be honest, I was expecting at least one girl and the house will need some remodeling to accommodate for three boys. We'll deal with that when they need beds instead of cradles. A cottage is only so big. After all that, the toddlers have two to three days to do whatever they want, and their mothers have all the time in the world to see to their every desire. I kind of let them do whatever while I made family trees.
Gemini took strongly to blocks, while Lupus and Sextans kept Lepus awake with the chimes. Alright, time for the boys to become children. Because eff that fourth day of toddlerdom. The house gets a makeover and Tucana and Terpsichore wish their sons to be accepted to Ebonwoods prestigious school for privileged children. Tucana invites over the headmaster. Naturally, the event went superbly and all three of the boys entered private school. It's so confusing, having three alien boys born on the same day. Nevertheless, each learned how to do their homework in the nick of time before school the next day and even got to watch morning cartoons.Lepus takes a trip to Ebonwood Plaza to spend some of the households vast fortune on clothes for the boys, (and a little on the ladies.) She seizes the opportunity to take a picture of her and her aunt, Hera. The mothers (Seraph) take on a 1940s style to their wardrobe. Absolutely adorable.
Oh, I should mention, Berjes Barbershop was torn down in order to make way for Witchwood Necropolis, Ebonwoods own fine graveyard. Since I can finally move gravestones from the Seraph and Cygnus Legacy lots, I set up a pretty little community lot with elegant mausoleums, pretty flower beds, benches, you know. I guess I'm so used to stopping after children become children, I remodeled the Seraph and Cygnus Legacy lots while I moved the gravestones. By the way, Hades and Andrea have [finally] passed away. And I moved on to the Cygnus spinsters. The ladies have two cats, Descartes and Hume, female and male; and while I get Medusa to seduce Pyxis, I'll be working on getting the two cats to have a litter of kittens. Eeee!
I suspect Medusa is permaplat, though, to my knowledge and her memory bank, she hasn't achieved anything to earn it. Lucky.~ I'm not sure how Persephone and Selene came to be enemies, but I'm working to improve their relationship. Persephone wished to become a Game Designer and Selene, a Professional Party Guest. Persephone got her job in the gaming industry as a guild leader. Medusa topped out the education career path her first day getting the job, fulfilling her LTW and providing the lot with that lovely, powerful bookcase. Persephone also reached the top of her career, same day, as a matter of fact. The two, now permaplat, wealthy young ladies quit their jobs to pursue more domestic... pursuits. [Training their cats and chasing after married men.] These girls' net worth is over one mil, so I'm not worried about them being unemployed. After Hume pissed in the house twice it was time for him to learn how to use the toilet. It didn't take him long. We'll see if it sticks.Medusa spent sometime hanging around the neighborhood in hopes she's run into Pyxis or Monoceros. Neither showed up, but at least Medusa learned how to fire dance. I decided Phil Shaikh is going on the murder list. The cats, Descartes and Hume, went through a rigorous training session, learning every trick in roughly two days. Their prize for completing the training course is a gray, catnip infused mouse toy.
Persephone suggested to Descartes for her and Hume to try for kittens, and they did! Yay! I can expect kittens soon! To add icing on top of this cake, Medusa invites Pyxis over for a night of seduction. Wow, from acquaintance to lovers in one date. Their single night of passion was a success. Medusa is now preggos. He is a devilishly handsome man, Pyxis. Even more good news, Selene and Persephone are no longer enemies.Descartes has her litter and brings into the world one boy kitten, Hegel and two girl kittens, Damascius and Dignaga. Eeeee! Kittens! The ladies can't keep their hands off them. And with five cats, three of whom are growing, the cat bowls need to be refilled frequently. Two bowls twice a day kinda deal. And they pee just as frequently. In the house. So they get scolded. Poor kittens. Medusa's about ready to pop. I invited over Aphrodite to try and unload one of the kittens on her, but she's not taking the bait. She wants none of the kittens. Next, I invited Leto to see if she'd take one. She did! Little Damascius goes to a happy home and to a happy little girl, Gaea. Medusa peddles off Hegel to Dorado and he gets to go home to Hecate.
Chamaeleon takes home young Dignaga to his daughter, Peitho. Because all little girls should get a kitten! And just like that, the kittens have all left the lot. All before Medusa goes into labor. Which, of course, she does promptly at six o'clock in the morning. To twins! Oh! No! Don't worry, I knew this was coming. Medusa's a family sim. Both kids are aliens with black eyes, thank Pete, one a boy, Aquarius and his sister, Aquila; the Water Bearer and the Eagle.
Serene is in desperate need of aspiration so, as she is a pleasure sim, we'll take her out for a night on the town. She invites Lepus to join her and the two have a great time, but Serene's aspiration is still really low. I'm disappointed. So I bit the bullet and bought her a car. This totally did the trick and she came home promoted to party guest and permaplat. Yay. And that does it for jobs regarding these ladies. Mind you, they're all supremely endowed.Just in time for Aquarius and Aquila to become toddlers. Aquarius is a Leo. Ha! 7/9/4/7/3. Medusa is a pretty crap mom. Aquila is an Aries, 7/9/9/7/1. The twins get a dose of smart milk because these Cygnus spinsters have aspiration points galore. They learn the basics before the day is out. Now it's the next couple lazy days that I don't really have to do anything and everyone just takes care of themselves. The day arrives that the twins become children. Again, I automatically save and go to the neighborhood. I should probably break that habit.
Well, now. I have eighteen, nope, nineteen boys, nine girls and six unmarried women. My numbers are totally whack. On to Rhea's betrayal! Yes, that's right, Chamaeleon got a kitten for his daughter. Rhea immediately calls up Pyxis, being seduced by two women. Wow, that was really fast. The date is dreamy and Rhea conceived in the photo-booth. Gracious! In public! It's okay, no one of consequence was there. Oh, isn't that strange. Rhea's a knowledge sim but her LTW is to have twenty best friends. Anyway, she returned home and no one was the wiser, Mnemosyne dropped by and she and Rhea shot the breeze in the hot tub. Dignaga is freakin adorable. I changed the seasons to summer, summer, fall, spring because fuck winter. I live in Alaska, I see enough of that shit.
I dislike Chamaeleon and Rhea's abode, er, house. It's pretty lame. I think I can do better. And I could, it does look better. Okay, Peitho learns how to do homework and Dignaga grows up into a beautiful young lady cat, while Rhea begins to show. Thus Dignaga begins her training while Rhea takes up pottery and Chamaeleon spends his days hopping in and out of the tub playing pirates...Wow, I think Rhea went into labor faster than other sims. She has another pretty little girl, Vulpecula. Green skin, green eyes, ah! Just too cute. Oh, Vulpecula means Fox. Dignaga is well on her way to completing her training and maybe, just maybe I'll get her a job. Not like they need the money. Peitho brought Aquila home after school, and the two pretty little girls played with water balloons until eight at night, when Aquila had to go home. They became good friends.
Little Vulpecula had a birthday the same night and Rhea wasted no time showing her how to be an independent young lady. I won't pretend Chamaeleon doesn't know Vulpecula isn't his daughter, but let's not forget that their marriage was a farce in the beginning and I don't think he's simple enough to believe he has any say in how his vampiric wife conducts herself. He's actually quite fond of the child.
Welp, it's time for Peitho to become a teenager, my gosh, she is so pretty. Chamaeleon becomes a senior sim and Vulpecula turns into a child. So, this lot is finished for now. The only male alien that hasn't engaged in extra-marital baby-making is Monoceros and I must remedy this post haste.
We'll start with Tethys' household, where she and Lacerta have a beautiful son, Hypnos. Young Hypnos hits the books super fast. Oh my gosh! Aquila stole their newspaper! What did Lacerta, Tethys or Hypnos ever do to her?! What a bad girl!
The next morning they meet up at the plaza to conduct their brief love affair. When they got there Anteros noticed them immediately and wouldn't stop freaking out about it. I probably should have noticed this earlier, Tethys is Monoceros' great aunt. Apparently she's a little confused about how to behave around him. I mean... They're on a date, but she has the option to family kiss him and check him out. They ended the date with crushes... So... not right. She can now family kiss, kiss hand and peck... Poor Monoceros is smitten with her and she's so torn. I must pursue this, however. I feel sick and mean and villainous... not as bad as I thought it'd be.
Tethys is much too timid for public woopy, though so I have to chance a home encounter. They make love in the spare bedroom while Lacerta's sleeping in the room behind them. Mission complete. Tethys is pregnant and Lacerta is none the wiser. A few days later Delphinus is born. Hypnos brings home a lot of girls from school. Today is Aquila's turn. He's also very good friends with Vulpecula and Nyx.
Eos stopped by and started handling Delphinus. I don't know how I feel about this. Whew, all's well, she left. Alright, it's time for birthdays, Lacerta's, Hypnos' and Delphinus' all on the same night. Lacerta has become such a wino, he's at the bar all day. So not a good example for the kids and poor Hypnos is getting no attention from either of his parents. All be it, he's too busy, what with his studies and all, but they don't even miss him. I suspect this is why his relationship with Delphinus is in the negatives. Monoceros comes over on his daughters birthday and Tethys and Lacerta are unusally more affectionate today. Seniors. He kisses his wife as Delphinus transitions and Monoceros bitch slaps Tethys in front of his daughter.Monoceros did get to see his daughter become a cute little girl, but right after, Hypnos sent him packing. Step up, son! Wooo! Lacerta and Tethys laughed about it later. What assholes. Anyway, that's it for this lot. Move along, move along!~
Corona Borealis, Mnemosyne , Endymion and Anaximander. Nice. Mnemosyne starts off with low social. Let's wake her up and call Asteria. This is such a tasteless business. Shit. She and Monoceros are half cousins. Might as well make sure he registers as family. Yop, he do. Well, damn! I'm still two girls short of an even twenty couples. Oh! Lucky.~ Terpsichore and Tucana haven't had plant babies yet, and plant babies are usually female. Back to the Seraph spinsters lot! Gemini and Sextans are getting sisters. Oh, that's right I need names. Hold on. Tucana grows plant baby Virgo and Terpsichore grows Libra. Libra lives up to her name sake. Alright we're done making extra-marital babies.
Oh shoot, I was going to divvy up the angels to assist with cleaning and child care for some of the many many households. Let's see who these guys are friends with. Ariel is closest with Hestia, Gabriel is closest with Themis. That's right, Gabriel is now a vampire. I'm interested to find out how he gets energy now. Michael is closest with Athena, while Raphael is close with both Monoceros and his wife, Asteria. Metatron is closest to Coeus and Sandalphon is closest to Themis, as well, but we can't have two angels in one household, so next up to bat is Corona Borealis. Their puppy, Legion, will go with Metatron. Corona Borealis already has a dog. And I should move Hyperion and Oceanus back into the Cygnus Legacy lot. Cutting down the occupied lots from twenty-seven to twenty-three. Let's get these guys set up here. Alright, folks, this will probably be the longest post until the kids hit college. All thirty-one of them. Until next time.
