1.08 - Birthdays and Experiences

A few days later was Brandon's birthday and he grew up as a young adult.


Jinny as the animal lover that she is decided to adopt a cat, so now they have this fluffy red Siberian cat named Ginger. She's a lazy cat and she would nap somewhere most of the time.


Prom night arrive and Jinny is putting on makeup for the first time, her aunt helped her a little. She also decided it was time to try leaving her hair down. Did she look ok? She's not sure, it's all new to her.


Gino is waiting for her outside.


They were voted king and queen of the prom but the others couldn't give them their crowns because they were nowhere to be found. Gino suggested to go to an hotel nearby, they knew eachother for months already but haven't done it yet. Jinny was a little scared but trusted him.


Brandon had someone to meet with too, they both had to study for exams and were also busy with part-time jobs but they're both adults now.


It was also Myron's birthday and he aged up to a child.



* Brandon looks so much like a CAS sim, he only took his eye color from his mother. Jinny's nose looks weird but I still think she's cute, she has lilac eyes not her mother's hot pink. Ginger is the cutest, Siberians are actually my favourites in RL (can't afford one though) but all cats are cute. She was the nicer one I could choose, the other had some bad traits, she isn't bad just lazy... It's odd to see a child with such strong features isn't it? I did change his appearance a little but I forgot to take a pic, the one you see here it's just after his aging up without changes.

Also I should mention that I'm using a custom world (that you can find here), most scenery and lots you've seen in my screenshots are part of this world and I didn't make any of it. I forgot to say it before but it should be clear that the only thing I made are my sims, when I will actually make something I will point that out.

1.07 -


Myra was aware of the bad choices she made, now she only wanted to have a normal life with her husband. That's why she married Jaron, he was kind and would take care of them.She wanted to start a new family with him, her children where already grown up. She wanted another child and was going to take risks... she wasn't lucky unfortunately.

The chances of giving birth without complications at her age were slim, courage isn't enough in this circumstances. She died giving birth to a baby boy that was later called Myron after her.


Trisha wasn't too happy to grow old the same day her sister died, they were twins and she thaught they were going to stay together. She dyed her hair and used makeup to make it seem nothing changed.



At the funeral Brandon met Nick Whitehead, he had never met Joann's father because he travels a lot for work. Seeing his face he suddenly remembered a picture his mother used to show him when he was a child, it was a picture of his father, and now he was seeing that same face in front of him.

They almost look like clones, there's no doubt they're related.



Jinny met Gino and she seems to have serious intentions, she was attracted to his original hairstyle first. She would ask him a lot of questions but he didn't really spoke much, she still decided they were going to be best friends.




Myron is growing and has his mother's eyes.



Jinny cought her first fish, she looks so happy.



After Myra's death Jaron had to take care of the house, he would clean and cook meals. He would also care about Myron, he's still so young. He was trapped in his routine and wouldn't notice if Jinny or Brandon were doing well at school. In fact Jinny was skipping class often, she would just go fishing at the park, when she noticed he didn't really care she stayed at home more just relaxing and reading fantasy books.

* Myra was becoming hard to write because I forgot to give her flaws, no one is perfect, also now I'm at single parent again. Jaron is neat so he will autonomously clean. Jinny skipping school may be a glitch, I noticed she wasn't being scolded for it so I kept it as part of the story. Aging up seems to have finally unglitched Nick. Do you like Jinny's boyfriend? He may be hard to convince, they talked for hours and they're barely friends...  Jinny and Gino, anyone else thinking it's funny?

The pictures got like that because if I try to center they get all on top with all the text under, it looks a little odd but at least the text is where it should be.

1.06 - Confrontations

Jinny loves the outdoor, she's in her school scout team and she especially like fishing. Her friends don't really perceive her as a girl, she's just part of the group for them. That's why her growing up generates mixed feelings among them. She's a girl now, she has never tried to hide it but it's also very clear now, she's her mother's daughter after all. Others couldn't pretend she wasn't but that didn't stop her from being the same as before.


Brandon went to prom with Sherry, he wasn't sure about his dancing due to his clumsiness so was very surprised whe they voted him prom king.


Myra got pregnant and Jaron was excited.


Brandon wanted to believe what Shirley told him, he didn't have much experience with girls. He wasn't very popular, no one from the chess club really is, he does have some female friends but this would be his first romantic story. Brandon has always understood math better than romance, people says he's a genius but he often miss things obvious for others. 

He got a call from his friend Joann saying they needed to talk about Sherry. They met at the park because Joann's brother, Harrison, was still mad at him.


Joann has been Brandon's friend for a long time and she wants to warn him. There are rumors about Sherry, she's known for changing boyfriend easily. Joann had warned her brother too but he wouldn't listen, he had a crush on her since childhood. Brandon is kinda shocked, he may not trust Harrison but Joann is one of his best friends.

"Sherry has tried almost every boy in the school." Joann said. "Tried?"
"Yes, tried, because she go out with one a couple times than she gets bored and picks another" Joann continued "My brother has watched her for a long time, he couldn't approach her, he isn't exactly the best looking guy. Suddenly one day she talked to him and they started going out."

"She told me they were just friends, could it be a misunderstanding?"
"You're too innocent, she'll never admit it, why don't you open your eyes? There are better girls who will be happy to be with you"


Brandon went to Sherry's house after talking with Joann.

"You never noticed?" Sherry said. "She has a crush on you"
"She's on your same clubs, she barely know how to play chess, and she's following you around that's creepy. I thought you you knew and didn't say anything for kindness"

Now Brandon isn't sure of anything anymore, Joann's his best friend but Sherry has a point. Who should he believe?


* I'm getting better, this time I even wrote dialogues. Still no real answer, I kinda want to leave this open. I just installed Relativity and I feel I have so much more time, the reason why there are so few pics of Jinny's childhood is because after school, school activities, homework and sleep she had very little free time before. My old graphic card screwed the first picture, I still used it because she has a lovely expression, I just bought a new one and I may be able to raise the quality a bit too... at least now I can see the pets.

1.05 - White Wedding

As she's laying in bed Myra thinks about her life, getting older makes people wonder if they did something good in life. Sure she's great with her job but she's always out on missions, she has to be ready to travel anytime, and the house they lives in is too small for all of them, Brandon has to sleep with her and there's no space for another bed when Jinny will grow up. Myra is seriously considering leaving her job and moving to a new house with the money she has saved.


She did buy a new house, a bigger one with more than enough space for everyone. Brandon and Jinny's birthday was approaching so they organized a party to celebrate both the new house and their birthdays.



Jinny didn't seem very happy but Brandon discovers that the prettiest girl in school is at their party. Sherry Starkey is pretty and she knows it, he doesn't really believe to have a chance but still tries and to his surprise she accept to go to prom with him.


Trisha meets Michaela and they seems to get along really well.


And Myra meets Jaron.


They're qick to fell in love and she accepts his marriage proposal just as quickly. Myra look at her image in the mirror, she has never been the type of woman who wants to be a princess and seeing herself in that long white dress makes her feel a little weird. She thought to be brave but this isn't among the things she's used to.



Their wedding is perfect, their family and friends are all there... only one person isn't happy today. Brandon spotted Sherry with Harrison, he thought she wasn't seeing anyone when accepting to go to prom with him but now he isn't so sure and he confronts them. Harrison is as shocked as he is to discover Sherry is going to prom with Brandon istead of him wich is her boyfriend!


They fight while Sherry watch them. Harrison claims she has being his girlfriend since childhood and Brandon has no right to ask her out but he points out that she accepted to go out with him so maybe she has chosen Brandon over him, after all did they get past childhood in their relationship?


After Harrison left Sherry tries to explain to Brandon that he sticked to her since childhood but she never felt anything more than friendship for him, sadly he doesn't seem to understand. She's going to prom with Brandon, that's what's important.


* Do you believe what Sherry said? I'm not too sure myself... Harrison Whitehead is Brandon's half-brother, sadly he seems to took after his mother while Brandon has their father good looks.

1.04 - Discoveries

Myra was kept in a small house furnished with just the essentials while the group she was spying was on a mission, she was guarded almost all the time. Suddenly she felt pain, it wasn't like anything experienced before. She wanted to call a doctor but they wouldn't allow her, she tried to endure it but it grew more painful as time passed...


At home Trisha is painting, she miss her sister, she has no way to ask where Myra is. She knows her sister is strong but she can't help being worried for not knowing. Her painting subject resembles her sister so much.


Myra was able to escape, she wasn't imprisoned and she also overheard that the group was splitting up. She had to go, staying there would put her in the middle of the fight, and she has to report back.
Once safe she goes to the hospital for a checkup and discovers she's expecting a baby, it was too late to do anything other than staying there and giving birth, a little girl named Jinny was in the family.


Brandon grows up and starts making friends.


Myra finds out that Marisol's her boss now and that she knew about her and Nick, she couldn't believe her at first why she would stay so calm? Myra soon finds out that her last job was her idea, that group seems to be known for their fights and she was hoping for her to get killed but Myra infiltrated better than she thought.


Working with your girlfriend isn't always easy, Arianna joined because it was a project they would carry on together but she wasn't so much into music. They weren't getting much opportunities as a band but Arianna didn't seem to care. Having a successful band was Trisha's dream and couldn't stand it, she was also in the middle of a crisis and wanted a change, when she kicked her out of the band she also told her it was over between them.


* I hope this makes sense. Now I have a camera mod, it's so much easier to get nice pics. The pregnant morph missing top maybe was too obvious... Two out of three children, just one more pregnancy.
Marisol's an elder now, she and Nick were trying really hard and they already have five kids. Every time I invited her over she was pregnant! Maybe because they both have the nurturing trait plus he's flirty and she wants a big family. Another funny thing about them is that Nick has reached Kama Simtra level 8, and he's the only one in town who has it at all XD

1.03 - Life is Hard

Trisha is getting nice tips since she started playing at SimFests, it doesn't matter if she's not allowed on the stage.


Myra is working undercover again, the boss of the group she's spying decided she must be his woman. She could have access to many informations this way, directly from the source, but she will have to keep a low profile. Being the boss's woman means no one would harm her (except their enemies, of course).


So she's safe, mostly, beside her "duties". This is work and she needs to remember that until her real boss tells her to leave Myra Spires doesn't exist, now she's Jessie an ex hooker who's now the boss favourite. She has to be grateful or she'll be sent back on the streets, and this time for real, or worse killed.



* I downloaded so many new poses, I wanted to try them, they looks so cool. I needed something that made Myra weaker without changing her character too much, I think it worked.

1.02 - It's a Boy!

Myra spent that night with Nick, she didn't suspect anything until one day she felt heavier than usual while swimming in the pool. A quick trip to the doctor confirmed what she thought: she was pregnant. She wanted to tell Nick, but couldn't find him...


The baby was born, a little boy named Brandon Spires. Myra was still in maternity leave and did her best for him.


Her partner Marisol wanted to congratulate her and invited her to her house, Myra never told her about Nick and she wasn't the type who would ask. As a good friend she just wished her to be happy, but when Myra reached her house she realized something was wrong.
Marisol told her a while back that she was getting married but Myra was about to be infiltrated as an undercover agent and couldn't go to the ceremony, after that they only talked by phone and this was their first time to meet after the wedding.
The person who opened the door was Nick and that moment she realized that he must be her best friend's husband. That was a shock, not only because the man she loved was married but also because she betrayed her best friend without knowing. Marisol welcomed her before she could say something and during the time they spent together that night she tried to avoid looking at him eventually ending faking sickness and going home earlier. Marisol's marriage seems happy from the outside, she has two kids plus one coming.

Brandon has grown up to toddler, with his father's blond hair and his mother's pink eyes. He looks so cute.



* I wanted to get a picture of the party or at least one with Marisol, Nick and Myra but I couldn't find Nick anymore... In my game they're not actually married, just engaged, and he seems to be glitched because I can't invite him over nor control him.

1.01 - Romantic Encounters

Myra feels lonely, she does have her sister and she already made new friends but there's something missing. Trisha loves to host parties and at one of those Myra met Jered, she didn't really like him but kept it going anyway hoping he could ease her loneliness.


At that same party Trisha met Arianna, that was love at first sight, they also formed a band with Arianna playing the bass.


Short after Myra meets Nick and fell in love, she does have a soft spot for blond-haired guys but this one seems perfect. He's a little clumsy but Myra doesn't mind, she loves to listen about his adventures and he also seems to have nice muscles wich isn't bad.


 
* Yes Trisha is a lesbian, I do it almost every time I have a spare female sim though she may have an 'incident' if the challenge requires it. And Nick has a secret, guess what it is? XD

1.00 - A New Home

Arrived in the new town the first thing Trisha wants to do is playing at the park, so she puts the guitar on her shoulder and go. The park isn't far from their new house, it's small but nice. As she starts playing a smile comes to her face.


Myra has just applied to be in the police, they require to be quite athletic so she goes to the gym to get back in shape. She used to exercise a lot but when moving house she had so many things to take care of that she couldn't go to the gym as often than before.


Her first day of work was stressful, Myra is ambitious and she would like to reach the top quickly but that's not how it works. She's fast friends with her partner Marisol.


That night when she was regaining the energy spent during the day something happen. A burglar tries to steal in their house but Myra is brave and she's not scared, being also athletic she has no problems to give him a lesson.



* I forgot how many times I tried to fix their breasts, I really don't know what's wrong with them. They were perfectly fine in CAS but it looks weird in the game... I give up. While playing I had to open in CAS almost the whole neighbourhood because the random generated townies all had the same face! I wanted a bit of variety so I replaced them with some sims that were in the bin.
