Generation 2, Part I: Let’s Get Ready to Rrrrumble!
When Brooke wasn’t beating the snot out of her elderly mother-in-law, she was caring for little Hector. It was surprising. She didn’t just bathe him, she would feed and play with him, too. Kind of sweet… until she set him down to have another row with Holly. Sigh. I’m actually hoping grim comes for the old bat soon… the fighting is irritating and lost it’s novelty after the tenth match up. Even the rest of the household ignores their bouts anymore. It’s become commonplace for them to be having it out in the bathroom, kitchen, bedrooms, nursery, etc, etc… no place is sacred!
Brooke continued her odd habit of passing out in strange places. I think all that fighting made her tired. Either way, she spent quite a bit of time breaking in the zebra print chairs. She spent the whole night there, just snoozing away and ignoring everyone else. Holly queued up a few angry interactions, but eventually got bored and left. Good thing, too.
Poor Star. She gave me the “What do you mean I’m pregnant… again?!” face when her belly popped up. Sorry, love… but I want a purple baby! Note the singular there… baby. No twins.
This is the only time I’ve ever had a sim use the energizer liberally throughout a pregnancy. I had to, really. With the household filled with complete idiots who would rather spend their time causing fights and acting goofy… it’d be madness for Star to sleep away the days. I don’t think she slept at all during those three days. Poor girl.
And, I thought things were bad when my Sims just shoved and slapped each other all day. My Sims never got into an all out brawl! I fixed the bed problem by selling the double bed and setting up three Trianon bunk beds which everyone sleeps in. They often fight over who relaxes/sleeps where but at least everyone gets a bed! I only bring out the double from the attic when it’s time for some woohoo.
I am really loving this story! It’s definitely very different from how my own challenge went and is way more entertaining.
