Currently Stuck On The Road So It Got Me Brainstorming What If I Did A Dual Legacy For Tjol?

Currently stuck on the road so it got me brainstorming… what if I did a dual legacy for tjol?

So what I mean by that is I’d choose Briar as Gen 2 and play that storyline and challenge with her and play the Gen 3 storyline and challenge with Peony. For the next gen I’d choose either Peony or Briar’s offspring.

Reasoning behind this: You don’t know this but the Gen 2 storyline fits perfectly with Briar (she has cooking as special talent and inherited a reward trait related to that as well), while I see Peony as the little artist that is dreaming of love and sick of the constant paparazzi everywhere and thus falls in love with a vampire and runs away. Because Jasper is a global superstar now and the family can’t go anywhere unnoticed. Briar still had a normal childhood and she actually is socially gifted and her second talent is singing. So she wants the spotlight.

Also: I wanna get to playing vampires in time for the new EP!! 🧛🏻‍♀️

Sims In Bloom: Generation 2 Pt. 40 (Spending the Night)

cw: mid-level spice? 🌶️🌶️ (I'd call it low but I don't know people's thresholds. If there's an official simblr threshold for this kind of cw I don't know it, sorry! No actual nudity.)

Conrad's apartment in the Arts Quarter wasn't far from the festival grounds, and when they arrived, Gord greeted the flirty pair at the door with a friendly tail wag.

They took him downstairs and let him run around, ensuring he did his business before returning to the outdated suite Conrad called home. Gord raced to his spot on the small sofa in the open kitchen and living space and Conrad flashed a nervous smile.

He set his keys on a shelf laden with knick-knacks someone might have had in the last century. It looked a bit like a dingy motel room, like the ones Heather and her family stayed in on the way to their vacations in Granite Falls.

"I know the place isn't much," he said. "When he retired, my dad got it furnished from some old lady who used to frequent flea markets every Sunday. Rent's cheap, location's great, but I wasn't a very good son when he was alive. I was back and forth from college, still dealing with my mom's death, hanging out with the wrong people."

"Conrad, I'm sorry. I didn't know both your parents were gone."

He shrugged, masking grief he'd buried well all these years. "It's not easy, but I was looking for any way I could to feel closer to him, so I took over the lease here after he died. But he didn't change anything, and I'm usually too busy with work to spend much time here, as it is. Gord likes the sofa. I do have an old Unix I play around with for fun, but I've never really had to think about impressing company with the place. Until now."

"I don't care what it looks like," Heather said. "I came up to spend time with you tonight, not your apartment."

Still buzzing from the effects of the Sakura tea, she leaned in to kiss him. Her lips travelled softly down his neck. He grinned from her touch, but pulled back. "Wait, wait. This is fast. Just let me catch my breath a minute."

"Sorry." She buried her swooning head in her hands. "I'm usually the one slowing things down. It's just...the tea, and...and you."

His breathing grew heavier. "I want you," he said. "But I also like you. I haven't stopped thinking about you since the day I knocked on your door. I don't want you to think I brought you back here just to do this."

"I don't think that. I like you, too. So much it scares me a little."

"I scare you?"

"No, I'm afraid of myself. I'm the one who makes rash decisions and gets tangled up the Landgraabs - who despise me."

"The Landgraabs have no taste," he laughed. "Which is all the better for me."

He leaned in for another kiss, dragging her to the sofa while Gord made himself scarce.

A hunger took them over, perhaps drenched in too much Sakura tea, but they gave in to the passion bleeding through their skin. Twice.

They slept soundly for a few hours until sunlight poured over the Myshuno Hills, breaking through Conrad's small bedroom window. As they stirred, he pulled back the covers to admire her in the daylight. She blushed, pulling him in for a kiss before she stood to get dressed.

"I want to see you again soon," he said. "I'll bring Gord to the coast later this week, hang out with you and Ash."

She smiled. "I'd love that."

Before she made it down the elevator, her phone vibrated from an incoming text. Would it be too soon to call you my girlfriend? She grinned.

Not too soon. I like the way that sounds. She took screenshots and sent the texts to Holly, and her sister sent back enthusiastic support with a half dozen heart emojis.

Heather felt like a lovestruck teenager again. But this time the boy on the other end of the phone didn't make her question anything about their connection.

Yet when she picked up her son from Malcolm’s penthouse, she didn’t mention Conrad. They were trying to make peace, consciously, for the sake of their son, but she still didn't trust him. He and Conrad had a history, and Heather didn't want his opinion. Not yet, anyway.

For now, at least, she was happy to have something in her life that Malcolm and the Landgraabs didn't know anything about. ->

NOTE: Me, tossing Conrad into the cheapest apartment in the city so he'd have more money when he eventually (hopefully) moves in, without considering the aesthetics of this eventual moment? Typical.

The Joy of Life - A season comes to an end - Part 2: Trouble in Paradise

As mentioned in Part 1, Rosemary closed up the bakery early to spend time with Jasper. The day before, the agency had called Jasper and asked him to come to Del Sol Valley asap to fill a missing main role. This was not fitting for their plans for the weekend. Rosemary had been looking forward to celebrating New Year’s Eve and Jasper’s birthday back to back. He’d told her about the role right away and that he’d already accepted. The teens would be attending prom anyways, so in Jasper’s mind, they’d just celebrate the following day. Maybe he’d even make it back in time. He didn’t understand why Rosemary was so upset and wanted to make it up to her with wohoo which riled her up further.

They ended up getting in a big argument and Rosemary told him he didn’t even need to come back in the night. She’d make sure to have a good time without him… This really hurt Jasper and he left for Del Sol Valley early. Rosemary was never happy when he left, which he knew of course but he didn’t understand why this would be such an issue for her then…

Side Note: Rosie had never been supportive of Jasper’s career as an actor. Main reasoning was the company he had at work, which was no one else than his past flirts Judith Ward and Jillian Kraft. To top it off, Brian Blake (her ex) would frequently be a part of Jasper’s actors/actresses hangout group too… Jasper hadn’t taken part in as many projects as he’d have wanted, which was all to keep Rosie at bay. Rosie wasn’t a jealous person but she still feared the influence the other celebrities might have on Jasper.

Finn and Briar had a blast at prom. Most of their friends didn’t attend because of New Year’s Eve and it wasn’t their prom anyways. But Briar enjoyed slow dancing with Aden and Finn got a strong attraction sentiment to Bria. They came home right before midnight though to celebrate with their mum 🩷 Who was sitting in the living room alone and waiting for a message from Jasper.

Side Note 2: This entire dispute was not staged by me! Rosie started arguing autonomously, so I went with that. Their relationship changed from “wholesome” to “strained” unfortunately 😕 One of Jaspers traits is hot-headed and though Rosie is compassionate, she can throw a little temper tantrum too! So they do fight from time to time and I wanted to display that. It’s not about who’s wrong or right in this either. I like cozy gameplay but all my stories have some kind of little or big conflicts they need to overcome. I want my gameplay to feel cozy but still realistic, you know? But one thing is for sure, there’s always a Happily Ever After because I need some fairytale vibes 😄🧚🏼‍♀️
