Chapter 1.18-Fiendishly Delighted

Last time! Lottie painted, the kids were crazy, Sherman developed X-Ray vision, and the Nott's managed to land a zombie that thought it was a ghost. And it was all.in.one.day! Let's get right back to it, shall we?

Whacha watchin' there Lottie?
Lottie- The News. O_O
The news? I take it's kinda scary out there huh?
Lottie- Not as scary as it's about to be in here.
In here? Why?

Lottie- Because I'm in Labor! That's why?
Oh. Should I go hide?
Lottie- NO! Get me cribs set up! STAT!
CribSsss?
Lottie- YES!
Oh hell.

And she was right. On the left we have Warner. My husband named him.
Lottie is feeding Edith. (Hubs suggested Carla and I revoked his naming privileges.)

And in the other room all by his lonesome is Scotty.
Scotty makes 9. 9 kids of Lottie's loins. Sherman has 12. o_o And I'm one of the weird ones who likes only having a sim kid or two tops. This is a nightmare.
And while my worst dreams are unfolding the strangeness of the game continues. The kids are all on a field trip and keep getting opportunities, which , as per the rules, I accept. Like 2 sim-minutes later the fail music plays and I get a pop up that they missed out on the opportunities. O_o. The only good thing I can say about all of this is the field trip is at the police station where Daddy Sherman is working. Let's go peek at how they're doing shall we? We'll need to pay particular attention to Cash since he was out harassing Constance all hours last night.

Figures he'd be sleeping on a bench in back of the station. Only he's got an awesome moodlet going on with this.

See that Fiendishly Delighted? From watching a sim suffer? HE WAS THE ONLY ONE THERE. He is fiendishly delighted at his own fail. Rofl! I love this kid.

Meanwhile- around front. Flynn and Sherman are gossiping while the girls are sitting around doing homework. Well, except for Gwen. Gwen is just happy to be standing on the sidewalk in her stripey tights.
Sherman- So we'll just stay right here, and we'll get to avoid the 3 new kids your mom popped out today!
Flynn- That's genius dad! You're so cool! *rolls a wish to be friends with Sherman.
I check their relationship panel aaaaand Nope. Not locking that one in. It would take way too long. In fact, Sherman is in the red with all of his kids except the new ones. LOL

Gwen- These losers all think the air smells all 'laundry fresh' outside of the police station? Puh-lease!

*furiously pedals her bike to a random spot in town.
Gwen-Now THIS is April Fresh! Homework time!
I don't get you.

Back at the police station Sherman tries to be kind to sweet little Samantha, it works and yet again I nix a wish to befriend a child because the relationship is too far gone for me to want to fix when I have 11 sims in the house to  keep up with.
Flynn has already gone home to go to bed for reals, and now Paige is going too. At this point I send Gwen off to learn to fish for a wish, Lily takes a writing class, and I ignore the three that are left.

When Paige gets home I decide that I'm going to tackle her 'have a sleepover' wish and so throw a slumber party. I even cleared out a huge spot in the basement so there would be plenty of room for sleeping bags. So where did they sleep?

OUT-DAMN-SIDE. O_O

WITH IT BEING 48* OUT-DAMN-SIDE. O_o *eye twitches. Really, my twitchy eye was going nuts about here.

And of course, at about 2 am she got the 'getting chilly' moodlet. Effer. So I built a shed around them to get them warm again. When they all got up that morning I realized that she had the option to do a 'friendly introduction' to each of her guests. Quality Party Planning! Woooo! And it seems I did it wrong too. Seems she just wanted to invite a friend to stay the effing night. So wish not fulfilled. Wish deleted. Rules be damned.

As a final note, somewhere along the way Lottie learned how to make firecracker shrimp. Let's watch.

Lottie- Mmmmm! Yummy!
Wait a second? I thought there was supposed to be some glitchy fire breathing animation?!? As glitchy as you guys are you should have that in the bag!

Oh there it is! Yup! Glitchy! I'd half hoped she would catch something on fire, oh well.

lulz. Paige had a plate too. Her animation was better. First she levitated.

Then she made sweet sweet love to her thumb (that's not how you do that sweetie.)

And then she derped.

Since last one was super long, this one is kinda short. Oh well.

Next time! More Firecracker Shrimp fun? Birthdays? Moar babies??? ;)

Chapter 1.17-Occult Confused

It's been a while since I got to check in with the Nott family. Mostly because I was scared it wouldn't work since I moved all of their saves over to a new Any Game Starter game that did NOT include all the EPs (I left out WA and ITF.) Then it took me a few hours of finiggling and finding files I needed to get it working, but I DID it! I also reset the ages to be quite a bit shorter (Age span for this wishacy is now 60 days as opposed to 90) and redid a few other settings just for Lottie and her brood of terror. The first thing I see when the game finally loads? 

*weeps. 10 KIDS?!?!? WTH was I thinking?!? What is wrong with me?!? I can barely handle the 6 she has now! I can NOT handle Sherman! Add to this that she's preggers and stir crazy without any wishes I can use to get her out of the house and I'm ready to strangle her. Oh well. Let's see what else is going on shall we?

Paige wants a sleepover. Ok. I've never done one of those in game before. And looking at her moodlets she's also dying. O_o

And of course, Sherman still can't keep it in his pants. He's now wishing to let it loose. Go play in traffic Sherman.

And finally- in the new Game SP is working wonderfully. This was the evidence. Babies are appearing in town without lag making it unplayable. <3 Yay! So let's get on with the show

We'll start with Cash dreaming of nuking the kitchen.

Sherman goes to work. Oh! And look! The Time Portal is gone. Because there is no ITF in this save now. Ha! Also, there are no more tourists either. And things are running So much more smoothly! I loves it. Though I really need to redo my graphics settings. Seems I haven't done that yet... Hmmmmm...

Seems Lottie had been halfway through a new painting. She autonomously continues it and I can see I've dropped the painting replacement mod into this game. Nice! Now to get the street art replacement mod in here too.

Sherman- We really need to blow this kitchen to bits and start over.
What is it with the thoughts of Rockets when you're in the kitchen???
Sherman- Dammit. The voice is back.
I.Will.Never.LEAVE! Now shoo.

Sherman- No! This kitchen is really plain compared to our sparkling other rooms.
Just rub it in Sherman. Rub it in.

Then, he starts doing this. Uhm, Sherman?
Sherman- I'm not leaving.
Well, boo for you. What are you looking at?
Sherman- The tv.
There is no tv in the kitchen dipshit. What are you looking at?
Sherman- *sigh. Computer: User Interface up.
You suck.

Sherman- Yes. But I'm right. See up there? I'm watching the TV in my bedroom.

Sure enough.. He's watching the tv two floors below him. Maybe my game isn't working as well as I'd thought.

Sherman- Hmmmm, I'm bored with my x-ray vision. Let's watch the other tv.
Whaaaaaaaaa???

Nope. Not nearly as well as I thought it was. *facepalm (Sherman is in the upper right, the tv is center left.)

Moving along, Lottie finished the large painting for like 300 simoleans. (Where's the damn firefox alt symbol for that?)
Lottie- I like the replacements!
Me too Lottie. Me too.

Cash- How did I get here?
You went home with one of your half siblings and then sat down next to one of your dad's lovers.
Cash- Lovers? There's more than one?
Constance- *slams laptop closed

Constance- Alright. I've had just about enough of this. When we have people in this home, I expect them to behave and not talk to themselves about their father's love life!
Cash- I'm sorry.
O_o
You're secretly plotting to kill her aren't you?

Oh, and-

I then get a pop up informing me that Constance Shelley is now dating Trigger Broke. When I check Sherman's relationship panel *fanfare* they are no longer romantically involved. Thank.Twallan.

Back at home and moving on Lottie has a wish to be BFF's with Samantha, so I start Operation Befriend the Children with a good old "Announce Pregnancy."

Which promptly causes Samantha to see if Lottie is already lactating breaking her shoulder in the process.
Samantha-  *squish  *squish. Yup! You really are pregnant!
Lottie- Whaaaaaa???

I follow that with a 'give gift' interaction in an attempt to relieve the awkward.
Samantha- You are so super rude for giving this to me mother! lol! =D
Lottie- You WILL be my best friend without checking my breasts! So take it and shut up! lulz! :)
O_o Hmmmmm. Didn't work. You guys are weirding me out. Oh hot damn what was that?!?

Wait a second. I have FOUR of those things down here??? O_O whoa. Hot damn indeed.

Back upstairs, Lottie and the Glitch Monster (aka-Samantha) have moved to the other side of the table again. And I finally get a wish that'll let me get rid of the stir crazy moodlet. FINALLY. And then this happens on the other side of the table.

Nothing strange you say?

They ALL had the creeped out moodlet. All except Flynn. Considering 'Singed' is his normal look I try to figure out why they're all freaking out over him.

Oh. Well eating a zombie snack when you ARE a zombie snack would indeed be pretty creepy I guess.

Lottie- Lookit me. I'm a hot mama. See me pose all autonomously? Just by walkin' through a door? What'dya think of that? Think I could be one of your legacy sims with this hot bod?
Lottie, you are one of my legacy sims. This is a legacy. You'll pass your torch to Flynn and then it will be his turn to make us babies to carry the legacy of crazy on.

Lottie-Oh. Never mind then.
Dammit. Now I want to make that pose. :/ Thanks Lottie.
Lottie- What's that supposed to mean?

And then instead of getting a gender confused sim, we get an occult confused sim. Yup. This game is so messed up even the zombies think they're ghosts. *headdesk

And while we have a zombie infestation, where is Cash? Still at Constance Shelley's house. Sleeping on her back porch. And look! I'm artiztic.=D

Zombie chick- Hey! I'm a zombie!
Ya think?

And Cash finally gets kicked out of Constance Shelley's house as he was trying to wash his hands in an effort to get rid of the green funk coming from his armpits.
Cash- Bitch please! You didn't kick me out! I left on my own because your sink was subpar!
He then proceeded to sit down and play at-

4:23 in the morning. Because Cash don't need no rules. Also, there are no puddles at home to mop so I cast around and finally settle on the 'win a game against Lottie' wish he has locked in to get him to go home. He arrives home around 5:30 to challenge his sleeping mother to a game of chess. Hey. It worked. I'm taking it.


And so I'm calling this the end of the day because this is long enough. So even though we haven't even spent 24 hours with the Nott family, it's a day. And this is even more proof that I must have been drinking when I locked in that wish of Lottie's for 10 kids.

So! Next time! Moar babies! More crazy kids! More crazy game! G'night!
