Iron Values TPC, Spare 3, part 2/2
- 1. { IRON VALUES Trailer Park Challenge Spare Update the Third, part two of two
- 2. Welcome back to the Newsons, where the burning of dead leaves is taken a step further.
- 3. Criminal at night, caretaker at day – what a life.
- 4. While Cal’s rising through the underground ranks, Ginger’s been promoted to Crime Scene Investigator. She soon quit, the official reason being that her home is understaffed.
- 5. “How many banks do I have to rob to get a bed around here?”
- 6. As if there weren’t enough hyperactive pranking chatterbugs around, Hadron (whose gender I couldn’t remember as a baby, to some annoyance) has 5/8/9/8/1 as his personality.
- 7. At least he’s not a clone. Pion – grown to a rather inconvenient size for this apartment – is a 7/4/9/8/1.
- 8. In order to fit a bunk bed, the couch had to be shifted around, calling for the guitar to be sold. How is it, Sideburn girl? “The bed is fine. The nickname is not.”
- 9. Very emotion. Much expression.
- 10. “Father, do not throw that hard.” “You need to toughen up, sideburn girl!”
- 11. “My grades have yet to improve.”
- 12. “Mother has not made the bed.”
- 13. Okay, the lacony/lack of expression can’t last forever. Or it could, but I want to show Pion’s sweet sides as well.
- 14. A sign! They are approaching!
- 15. Or it, rather.
- 16. Father-daughter cuteness need not be excused with a caption.
- 17. Autonomous playable raking, much less a child performing it, is something I had yet to see in this game. Goes to show what a variation I have in my simming style.
- 18. “So what have we learned from ‘The Boy Who Cried Llama’?” “Lie in moderation!” “Exactly.”
- 19. “*tsk tsk*” “What! I’m a man of a certain age!”
- 20. Cal still needs to earn creativity points, remedied by a little something from The Sims Resource (easel set by AnoeskaB). My original purpose of downloading was to get horizontal and oval canvases, but they don’t function for me <.<
- 21. “Oh no, he’s passed out and we can’t wake him up!” “Meh, he’ll be fine. I’m too pregnant to bother.”
- 22. ‘tis a girl! A lepton is an elementary particle that does not undergo strong interactions; the best known of all leptons is the electron. (By now I’m just copying sentences directly off Wikipedia)
- 23. Mewonders whether the age spans in this game were designed with multi-birthdays in mind.
- 24. “I’m bored and I smell!” Yet you think you’d be better off with ten children.
- 25. “Mother. You woke me up again.” “Sorry sweetums! Come watch the movie with me!”
- 26. So I hadn’t really understood the hype about digging treasures until [yet-to-be-published-challenge], when I realised that it boosts fun without being seen as a chore!
- 27. I’m surprised at how well you kids compose your outfits. “Why won’t anyone talk about this big black box?” Ehm… what box?
- 28. “Am I really supposed to get a report card on my first day?” “*snicker* I got an A+ *snicker*”
- 29. “Voice, do I really have to talk with her?” You brought Tina home, you want her to be your friend: eventually you’ll have to interact.
- 30. Stupid game coding. Choosing “serve” instead of “have” doesn’t mean I want to feed the whole neighborhood!
- 31. “Whatcha looking at, dog? Yeah that’s right, keep walking.” I guess nothing else of interest happened, because it’s time to move on to the last household of this rotation.
- 32. As seen earlier, SimMichelle attended Pras’s wedding as Neptunium’s +1. Because I wanted there to be somewhat of an age difference, I played her for a whole week before moving Neppie in.
- 33. Whoops. She’s a basic Libra, complementing Neppie’s neatness, activity and meanness quite well. Family w/ Knowledge secondary.
- 34. Neppie immediately took a liking to the piano; Michelle took a liking to him. She also happens to be the good witch from that time Ben & Bruce went to the Nature hobby lot (and consequently the voice on the phone thereafter).
- 35. Here she is in all my styling glory! “Don’t mind me asking, but does this have anything to do with Neppie not winning my bachelor challenge?” If I say this was planned before that, would that be a no?
- 36. Cooking for yer man-to-be already? “Don’t you know that the way to anyone’s heart is through their stomach? Even more so with GC sims.”
- 37. “Neptunium, we have a wedding to catch!” It’s like some toilet duck commercial, where you fear that someone will break in and judge the state of your bathroom.
- 38. Because every witch needs a familiar, here’s Silver Moon. What do you mean it’s not a parrot?
- 39. You may recall that Neppie’s turn-ons are unemployment and make-up; SimMichelle’s have been set to black hair and glasses. Shush Silver Moon, what are you insinuating <.<
- 40. And Michelle passes the Grilled Cheese test!
- 41. Even with only 70 daily and 11 life, these two are comfortable enough to keep me from buying another bed.
- 42. Crush status came the next day. These two quickly became my new favorite sim couple.
- 43. Neither have gotten jobs yet: with a simself-courtesy motherlode and easy LTWs (max all skills and golden anniversary), I let them roam semi-free.
- 45. The 0-nice-pointer wants to cuddle >.< I’m as surprised as you at this development, SimMichelle.
- 46. Come Wednesday, it’s time for The First Kiss. Neppie is awful at rolling any social wants besides hobby related ones (and even those are generic).
- 47. “See, tubs aren’t that scary.” “No… but don’t let go yet.”
- 48. “That’s what you’re gonna do the minute after woohoo?” “Why are you using the future tense when I’m already doing?”
- 49. *gasp* I didn’t even have time to see who it was! What drama!
- 50. “Can you see the pregnancy glow?”
- 51. There’s something about the timing of this pic that just keeps me staring at it. Oh and he said yes, but I assume you figured that out.
- 52. “I’m positively quite big, aren’t I?” Well, I’m going to pick quads, so there’s an excuse :D “Wait, what?”
- 53. “Honeydrop, the guests have arrived.” “I quit. Mi – Voice said we’re gonna have quadruplets.” “WHAT?!”
- 54. The guest list isn’t as big this time: just Neptunium’s siblings, parents, Benjamin and some obscure acquiantances of Michelle’s. The two kissing in the forefront are playables.
- 55. “Shoo! You’re blocking the camera!”
- 56. Husband and wife yada yada romantic stuff. I’m disappointed that I couldn’t fit the arch into the photo in a nice way.
- 57. “Such a waste. I didn’t even get to cut it!”
- 58. Kendal Lawson: “Aren’t you a nanny-hater?” “This is a bit of an emergency. A limo emergency.”
- 59. With that in order, labour arrives right on time!
- 60. The mass reaction is quite amusing, isn’t it? Remind me to invite this many people to the gen 3 wedding.
- 61. Witnessing the magic of birth reminded these two of their primitive hatred towards each other. Since it was before the naming dialogue, I was a bit worried that Michelle would run off mid-labour to watch.
- 62. Yer a grandpa again, Bruce! “Hey there little girl! Voice, I’m afraid these will be the last ones I see before I’m off to the Luau.” Don’t worry, I’ve now run out of names for this generation.
- 63. Two boys and two girls! This fella here is Baryon, named after a composite subatomic particle made up of three quarks, which in turn is named after the Greek word for “heavy” (barys).
- 64. The daughter left alone in the kitchen is Gluon; an elementary particle that acts as the exchange particle (or glue) for the strong force between quarks, forming protons and neutrons.
- 65. Analogous to how gluons work, the photon (boy) acts as exchange in the electromagnetic force between two charged particles. Photons transmit light and are their own anti-particle.
- 66. A phermion fermion (girl) is any subatomic particle characterized by Fermi–Dirac statistics (instead of Bose- Einstein), such as all quarks, leptons and baryons. If any of the info I’ve stated so far is incorrect, it’s either my own fault or Wikipedia’s (English and Simple English).
- 67. “Seems you got Neo’s curse, eh?” “Don’t forget to pick that can up once you leave.”
- 68. “Glad you hired me now, aren’t you?” Yes, but I doubt it’ll occur soon again. “I’m useful and you know it.”
- 69. Despite the second fight, the party timer ended at “good time”. Sado-masochistic sisters, to say the least.
- 70. Michelle was asleep when the limo came around and couldn’t get in; to fix it, I clicked “Nuke… Stuck Party Controller” which ended up deleting the limo. Oh well.
- 71. “Don’t you have a home?” “Can’t I stay the night to look after my precious niece? Y’know what, let me just adopt her, you have enough as it is.” “Get. Out.”
- 72. With all the four newborn being fed and sleeping, Kendal goes home with a night’s good work behind her, keeping me one step further from trying out the “Camp Nanny” legacy.
- 73. Winter and Monday roll around: it’s time to wave goodbye.
