Ravynlee Posted September 18, 2008 Author Posted September 18, 2008 i wish i could play my sims characters at home and have screenshots... the problems are is that they are at my cuzns house, and the majority of them died in a fire. I had a house of black knights who took prisinors all the time. More people died in my dungeons then in my fire in my castle. twas a pretty sick game until the queen died... making it a bit of a sausage fest... so i let the fire burn... Wow now THAT would have been a sight to see! Shame no pics... but sounds great! When I realised how sims could die in the old days (way back when) I tried my hand at making sinister sims, the type that would befriend neighbours, invite them over then take away the pool ladder and watch them drown or take away the doors so they starve to death or simply burn... but later I discovered hacks that meant guns could do it and me as the controller was rendered somewhat obsolete. I did like the chainsaw and the working gun (I think the gun is still there at Paladins) but yeah... now I am far more sedate. Doesn't mean I don't enjoy a good sim-massacre every now and then, just to shake things up a bit XD Quote http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/8a6798b252d89e12b3d476bb0fa63027.jpg ~ If I'm not here, I'm there ^ ~ ~ All new general discussion forum ~ Click pic !!! ~
Peterdea Posted September 18, 2008 Posted September 18, 2008 well it is fun for me but to be honest i simply cant be bothered making relationships and stuff like that... Quote Its good to be back.

Anyhoos, here's more of mine to keep ya distracted til then... maybe. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/126.jpg 65) Self explanitory really. Yeah, we're still like horny bloody teenagers sometimes... keeping the flame alive ^^ http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/127.jpg 66) Jack. I know, he looks almost... Asian here, must be the hair (I just met Mike, I swear! XD) http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/128.jpg 67) So Chester drops around to visit unheeded one day, checking out the new place probably, bringing along his wife Talinda (I dunno where their kids were, I hope with the nanny!). He and David are the best of friends. Here they are greeting one another with a manly hug... awww. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/133.jpg 68) The four of us together, with the twins to the right. It was a little awkward at first because as close as David and Chester are, neither David nor I had met Talinda before and I don't really get along with Chester, so it was... tense to say the least. We watched TV and made idle chit-chat, doing the neighbourly thing, as the youngins played. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/134.jpg 69) Again David and Chester hugging. They do that a lot. Just as well I'm married or I'd start to wonder about my other half's sexual preferences at times... no matter. Here David is hugging his best bud extracting promises to catch up again soon as Talinda watches on. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/135.jpghttp://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/136.jpg 70) David's a great daddy. In spite of how much he works he always seems to have time for the twins, which is incredible in itself. Here he is putting his firstborn to bed, and later potty trains Devon, and still that bond between father and daughter is as strong as it's ever been. She follows him around everywhere, especially now that she's crawling. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/137.jpg 71) David watching over his brood as they sleep. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/138.jpg 72) ... Including me. Aww. Aint he adorable? :o http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/139.jpg 73) We sleep peacefully in our new home, surrounded by new friends, and life is as great as ever. In the throes of my sleep it seems I'm not as complete as I otherwise seem - here I am dreaming of maybe having another baby...?! Already?! Hmm...

Ravynlee Posted September 24, 2008 Author Posted September 24, 2008 http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/140.jpghttp://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/142.jpg 74) Jack and I. My boy. He's still my sook, following me everywhere, wanting attention or food (usually the latter, attention he gets plenty of ) After a hair cut he seems like a whole new child, a happy child anyway, that's a start! http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/144.jpg 75) Devon being doted on as always by her father. Actually here I am watching on as he gives her a bottle. I don't know what made that moment so monumental worth capturing, but still we look good together as a family unit, three quarters of it rather... http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/145.jpghttp://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/146.jpg 76) Playing Peek-a-boo with the twins. They're so adorable when they laugh, it's priceless! Mind you, there were times there little Jacky was raising his fists in front of his face I was starting to wonder if maybe my placid little boy hadn't inheritted his father's occasional lapses into schitzophrenia... http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/148.jpghttp://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/149.jpg 77) Here David is teaching Jacky to walk... it's the epitome of cuteness! (Dunno what I was doing at the time, I think I was eating as usual, it's a comfort / boredom / habit thing XD) http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/153.jpg 78) Another neighbour making himself at home (as they all seem more than happy to do, just walking on in all hours of the day) - it's Jared, the guy from downstairs. As the kids play we get to talking. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/154.jpg 79) David has wandered out to the backyard to test the grill. The yard is quiet - most of the other neighbours are at work anyway. It's Autumn, weird weather for a BBQ anyway, but no matter. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/156.jpg 80) For some reason with all those chairs, once the food is cooked, David takes his plate upstairs to eat alone while Jared and I remain outside to eat. Though I don't seem fazed my husband has essentially snubbed me (maybe he was looking after the kids, I dunno) young Jared and I continue talking - I find out he works in the field of Paranormal research - how intriguing is that? Worthy of a toast or two, apparently. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/159.jpg 81) OMG what happened? One minute we're talking, the next I'm seeing hearts everywhere! What the hell? Suddenly I have the most intense feelings of attraction to him, though I barely even know him - I can't explain it and I don't know why but I have stronger chemistry with this man than I do my own husband So of course I can't (or don't) fight it... and we kiss. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/161.jpg 82) It's amazing, and as guiltly as I should feel with my husband and kids upstairs blissfully unaware, I'm not. As playful as he is, Jared and I seem to just 'hit it off' with every interraction, I can't do a thing wrong around him. Hidden away behind the back of his apartment (and I'd like to think a bit tipsy from all those toasts we had over the BBQ) we make out... http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/163.jpg 83) Darkness falls but we don't seem to care. We're caught up in our own little world of flashing hearts, swooning, and hearing harp-music. Hearing footsteps we quickly part and decide to go our separate ways. But little did we know up there on his balcony in the dark another was watching - Rob - and he doesn't say anything - just stares. I hurry upstairs as Jared returns home.

Ravynlee Posted September 24, 2008 Author Posted September 24, 2008 http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/164.jpg 84) The twins are growing up - and showing off their creative side. Whether it's because we need the room - or something else - we move again - right next to the Bennington's. We take out a sizeable home loan ($160,000 worth) but it is a gorgeous place - even if it is on the rich side of town. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/167.jpg 85) The first people we meet ironically aren't rich - they're students from a few blocks down the hill. Two young guys named Jason (Shinoda), Kris ("Fribby"), and Jos (Bennington-Delson). Here's Jason and Frib... nice kids. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/168.jpg 86) Talking to Jos really took my mind of things a while. The day we moved in David leaves for work, leaving me alone in a new house with the kids, so Jos is welcome company. We share a few laughs before they head on their way. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/169.jpg 87) Despite it all I'm still feeling maternal... maybe a baby will help settle us in... or something like that... Mind you squeezing into my new black dress I feel the pressure of course to 'fit in' in this posh 'hood - despite my tats. There's rich and gorgeous people on all sides of us and of course David's career is as always taking off. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/170.jpg 88) Ironically enough, David comes home - with a new badge. Flight commander or something like that. I don't know, quite frankly it's all a bit of a blur to mere civilians like me. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/171.jpg 89) But the newly decorated officer isn't too proud to associate with his youngins. He comes in and goes straight to his daughter's side, and as always, as Jack plays at his table, Devon is stoked to see him. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/172.jpg 90) She's not the only one. Despite all that had happened in the apartment block when David comes home all is forgotten. In our gorgeous new house and he with his new promotion I am still as in love with him as the day we were married (note the pic on the wall - aww XD That is our ensuite / personal bathroom by the way, how swish is that?!) http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/174.jpg 91) The twins Jack and Devon sharing a loving hug. How fast they're growing up. Before I know it they will be walking and talking and off to school... Time is passing way too fast, it's frightening.

MrsBennington-Delson Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 omg great pics =D hahah I joined the game? xD haha great lol!! when we're at that do you have your sim packed? so I can use you too and the last pic of your toddlers is sooooo cute!!! didnt even know thats possible ^^ Quote http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/f03af096463589b6a2bebdd0c1455573.jpg
Ravynlee Posted September 25, 2008 Author Posted September 25, 2008 Aww thanks Jos, yes I thought it appropriate you be in there too, you after all inspired me to start again so why not immortalise you in some sim-fashion? Besides, Sis is in here too (Jojo / Crazy Robster), so is Fox (Greyfoxx, 'the evilnesh') and now Fribs (once called Vi) - I even have little brother Peterdea as well - so yeah, why not you? XD If you feel that way inclined I will package me and upload in next day or so. The package I have at the mo is an older version, the one I use in game now is a composite using that unflattering base, so I'll get back to you on that one ^^ As for the toddler's interraction just 'be' a toddler and click on another sim and you get 'huggle', very cute (Its with AL, as you have, so it's all good) http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/178.jpg 92) So before long loneliness and boredom creep in. Now seemingly living the life, with a gardener and maid at our disposal, I am left with little to do while the kids sleep. There's only so much I feel like studying. And feeling my social life slipping away I do what I know I shouldn't - and call up a new friend http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/179.jpg 93) Maybe I'm trying to convince myself what happened before back at the apartments was a one-off, and that Jared and I are just 'friends.' Here I am introducing him to Jack - Jared doesn't look too pleased really. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/181.jpghttp://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/183.jpg 94)Who am I kidding - the minute Jack is back to sleep Jared and I are 'getting better aquainted' in the closet (what is it with me and closets?! XD) Afterwards we are as loving as ever - it seems the flame still burns between us, and have developed a serious crush on one another - I'm a married woman for christsakes! http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/184.jpg 95) Speaking of, little did I know, someone had arrived home from work and was patrolling the yard, I think at that point paying the bills. Though I didn't see it first hand the look on his face says it all - that, or he just trod in something pretty darn foul... http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/185.jpg 96) Of course old habits die hard even with David. Whether it's the insignia and medals or something else he's all smiles again when some strange woman in revealing clothes wanders past. He doesn't say anything to her, and little did he see, while he was busy watching that woman mince away, was another man escaping through the back door and dissapear into the suddenly setting darkness behind him... http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/186.jpg 97) Whether it's the stress now of concealing my dirty little secret, or boredom of being some sim-version of a desperate housewife, I adopt some silly headwear and see visions of chefs standing in front of me. Well okay maybe it's not a vision, and maybe she just walked in like Jared and Rob and Mike used to do back at the apartments *sob* but whatever the reason she comes and goes just as quickly inviting me to some place I've never even heard of before... Kooky elitist bunch here in Belladonna Cove apparently. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/188.jpg 98) Commander Draiman (yes, he's done it again) now has such influence over his troops he's now bringing the blighters home with him from work! As soon as they get out of the humvee David sits the officer down for some rousing talk on fitness or something, I wasn't really listening. The rookie was obviously enthralled by whatever David was telling him he didn't get up off the ground until David shut up, and promptly (albeit briefly) sick of talking, sends the man home and wanders inside to reap his accolades. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/190.jpg 99) He doesn't get them from me initially, to be expected, the first place he goes is to Devon's side. She coos and reaches out for him as he hovers at her crib and he hugs his little girl. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/191.jpg 100) It's a different picture when he steps into Jack's room to watch his son play... from a distance. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/193.jpg 101) Now that I see him my bravado goes out the window - I even look a bit tentative as he acknowledges me as if I've been caught out - but David's not thinking about anything else but his grand promotion. Oh and me. The way the (promotion) 'arrow' is situated it's almost suggestive of something else But all hesitation of course fades when we kiss and things feel blissfully normal again. http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/194.jpg 102) Commander Draiman has a nice ring to it - and we're both all smiles as we catch up on the events of our day. Well his day. I talk a lot about food - and peace. Maybe that means I fear him going into battle incase war in Simland is ever declared. David laughs. He obviously knows something I don't... but he's not the only one anymore, is he? http://i346.photobucket.com/albums/p410/zednug/195.jpg 103) Just a snapshot of our huge 3 bedroomed, 3 bathroomed split-level house - featuring the sunken living room, entrance hall, and inground pool with outside showers, fountain and very fancy garden - it's worth the $200,000 we're paying... so far. (For those that want to know I think the house was from MTS2 I think - it's originally called 'New York Luxury 5x3 Unfurn - sorry forget creator, when I remember will edit - MTS2 is changing servers at the mo so might be harder to find, but worth it if you want it!)

Ravynlee Posted September 28, 2008 Author Posted September 28, 2008 Just uploaded my sim-self if you want: http://rapidshare.com/files/149073782/Rav_280908.Sims2Pack.html Haven't tested in-game so let me know if 'she' morphs in different clothes (I have like 4 versions of me that's why ) Thanks. No update today. Been working. Actually a bit bored. Am thinking about trying a new (short) challenge over at TS2 - The Nickel and Dimed Challenge: In short you are a single parent (mum or dad) you have a child and toddler and have to get your kids to adulthood (the day they become adults they have to move out, with or without going to college) without anyone dying or being taken away by social worker - the catch; the parent can't marry another sim into house (you can have extra kids), can't study for skillpoints (only work for them), start in a challenge house (on a 4x4 lot) and must have only $400 to start. You can't sell furniture, can't have any more than ONE skillpoint for charisma, body, logic, creativity (the others you acquire as you go through daily life) and you basically have no chance of getting up the ladder of success - yet you still have to raise a happy healthy family and make it to elderhood - and your kids into adulthood before the challenge ends. Sounds easy to start... Am so used to starting games with cheats etc I will see how this goes.

Ravynlee Posted September 28, 2008 Author Posted September 28, 2008 No probs, hope "I" work The challenge is... basically for poor simmies. That's the idea anyway It's a lot to read but I think it's worth it - cause I get bored so damned easy... Unless you can think of or find a challenge you think I'd like to try with ya?

MrsBennington-Delson Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 hmm... well cant think of a challenge lool... I got a challenge everytime I play sims xD bc I kinda just like to play myself but I never find the perfect way for sim-me to become a granny and die happy and peacefull loool haha well lets say maybe we can come up with something funny evil and intresting hehe Quote http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/f03af096463589b6a2bebdd0c1455573.jpg
Ravynlee Posted September 28, 2008 Author Posted September 28, 2008 hmm... well cant think of a challenge lool... I got a challenge everytime I play sims xD bc I kinda just like to play myself but I never find the perfect way for sim-me to become a granny and die happy and peacefull loool haha well lets say maybe we can come up with something funny evil and intresting hehe Exactly - I get about half-three quarters of my sim-life through before I get bored and start another game... I think we need something that will make us get to old age, if not die (in my history of Sims I have never actually died of old age, not once!) and we need to fulfill lifetime wants of course, but give us enough of a challenge to keep it interesting... Hmm. Well... we like to procreate; we need to have kiddies. Of course. Maybe the more the merrier! Maybe to different fathers? OMG that'd be a change haha We also seem to cheat a lot (Romance sims do that) so maybe that's an option? We need to get to old age and die of natural causes (not diease, drowning etc) I like the idea that the sims need to earn their place in the world so maybe start off poor. Move to a block of land that will support your whole family (you and kiddies, maybe grandkiddies if that's a choice) and build and furnish a place for the original $20,000 you get at start. Having said that, the sims only pay bills then, I think they should get more of a challenge and pay rent on top of that! Maybe we could have an apartment scenario? What do you think? The Nickle and Dime challenge had this; The idea is to mimic, as closely as possible, the life of an unskilled single mother trying to make ends meet for herself and her kids. You're a single parent with almost no assets and no marketable skills. You have been a homemaker and out of the job market for years, but now your partner is gone and you need to put food on the table somehow... http://bbs.thesims2.ea.com/community/bbs/messages.php?&openItemID=item.128,root.1,item.43,item.61,item.104,item.41,item.23&threadID=e3c4af5e8c79145b4290c82f3eef3429&directoryID=128&startRow=1#372beb510f8e213c5c26e41ddfc0bc1a What would be a challenge for you?

MrsBennington-Delson Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 hmm... well uhm can I use my "sim jos family" I got right now? since I got 1 baby and stuff... I'd then make Quinn leave me and move out of our house and like move in into a "poor" one with just 20,000$ start up... can I do that? if yes can I also make my single mother like date new guys and maybe marry some time again?

Ravynlee Posted September 28, 2008 Author Posted September 28, 2008 hmm... well uhm can I use my "sim jos family" I got right now? since I got 1 baby and stuff... I'd then make Quinn leave me and move out of our house and like move in into a "poor" one with just 20,000$ start up... can I do that? if yes can I also make my single mother like date new guys and maybe marry some time again? Don't see why not. Maybe we should do that. Marry again. Want to reach golden anniversary perhaps or separate and die old and alone? Wait... I thought about it... Here's a few ideas, see what you make of them; Alright, what I want is a more realistic take on sim-life. Let's start with a new sim family. Say you've been dumped, alone with a mouth to feed. Make it two? A toddler and a child. You're starting again with the basics, life is meant to be hard to start off. You don't know anyone and you're practically broke. You should move into a house using the $20,000 (by building and furnishing it) until you have no money left (or as close to that as you can get, less than $500). You get whatever job you can at the time to support your family. You may have to hire a nanny straight away to look after the little one so may save some money for that. You start off with no skills as you are 'returning' to the work force after being a house wife and need to earn your skills through manual labour (you must not study any skills as in cooking, cleaning, body, mechanical etc - couples councelling etc is okay as it doesn't affect job status). You can quit your job at any time to take up another better suited or one you really want but you must wait one whole day or until next paper is delivered before you can look for new job, you can't just jump from one job to another, in real life it's not always that easy to find work especially with lower skills. When you fall pregnant you can take the 3 maternity days off but you must quit your job when baby is born and get another. No one else can raise your baby into toddlerhood but you. Once the baby is a toddler you can go back to work again if you choose. If you miss the car pool for any reason you must immediately ring up and quit your job. In real life in harsh circumstances if you don't show up for work you'd get fired. Then you have to wait til the next day to find another job. For every monumentus event in a sims life you must throw a party. We celebrate birthdays all the time with parties, sims should too, regardless the age. Same as if you get married, you should have another party. If you choose to throw sports parties etc that's up to you - remember you're not rich and you shouldn't be. You're struggling to get your kids into college or at least grow up as happily as you can manage - live wisely Try and get as successful parties as you can manage on your budget. Do you have uni? Maybe we should try and get our kids into college at least considering I never use that either (Uni). The idea being we are trying to give our sim-kiddies the best possible life while sacrificing what we have to to get there - like real life. The only way to get your kids into college is by scholarship - and you can only move them into college within thrree days of becoming an adult. No one goes from child to (pre-)teen to college, sims need time to be teenagers before they move to college. Even your teens can get jobs but again they can't 'study' for promotions. They have to 'do' and learn through living it like the rest of us. Also no selling anything you already own. Once you build your house it must stay that way for the most part, unless you can afford to extend later down the track. You can't sell windows and doors unless you want to upgrade. Anything you own you can't sell under any circumstances unless you're upgrading to something more expensive (except toddlers items if your toddlers are now kids), even if it's broken you have to fix it (remembering that fixing things with low skills could kill your sims!) or call in someone else to fix it. And if you change wallpaper or floors you can't "sell" back the old ones only apply new ones over the top. You can plant your own vegetables in your garden and stock your fridge but can't sell anything you harvest unless your fridge is fully stocked. You can't sell fish or boots or anything you pull up from the ponds if you decide to have one in your yard. You can't sell any paintings you paint for extra cash. Oh and the computer you get at the start from Mr Humble you can't sell, nor can you keep. Place it in your inventory and never use - or give it away. Random strangers don't give away computers for no reason. Too unrealistic. Any gifts you get from friends, dates, or strangers must be kept or put in your inventory, never sold for profit. As we age in real life we usually accumulate clutter, same as it is our sims lives I think. You can own as many or few pets as you wish but they must never have jobs and must not bring in added income to the house. You can't make money off your pets in anyway - that includes selling litters. As you start off poor you must not have a security system. Smoke alarm is optional. Life isn't always safe in lower-income houses I like the idea of sim-marriage (as I rarely have weddings anymore) but ideally we are simulating a hard life for a single sim-mother. I say if you want to marry you can but only one income can come into the house hold at any one time. If your partner has a job you must quit yours and live off his income, same goes for him. I'd like to see the old sim mother try and cope with empty-nest alone for a while but if you marry before the kids grow up and move to college or out of home then so be it. If you marry try and make it to your golden anniversary, then celebrate it too with a party. If you have free time, and if you manage your finances well enough, try and have at least one family holiday away. Try and create at least one grand child before you die of old age. You can move your adult kids back home again affter college but again only one income at a time regardless how many people are living there. Game ends when your original sim-self dies, hopefully old and happy and of 'natural causes.' To keep it interesting it's worthwhile getting as many pics as you can - or at least giving us a run-down on your family story if you do it. If you didn't succeed getting any kid to college it's okay, the idea being your sim self does its best trying to achieve the happiest most fulfilled life it could provide for her / his family. Remember it's got to be as realistic as you can make it. Avoid the werewolves and vampires and alien and magic influences as much as you can... unless you're into that sort of thing Oh and one last thing - you must not use the Elixir of Life. You only get one shot - and if your sim self dies for whatever reason the game ends and you have to start again. You can't not save your game at the end of disasterous events (like a housefire) in order to avoid it. Take the good and bad. It's meant to be a challenge. Sound good?

Ravynlee Posted September 28, 2008 Author Posted September 28, 2008 Awesome. Well I've got Pete, Jojo, myself, Fribs and Fox to start if you want them? And if there's anything you want to add to all of that I posted ("rules" - and I use the term loosely, it's not strict, you're meant to just have fun with it) feel free to add it. I thought of one thing - You can't work in a sim-owned business. Ideally it should be jobs you get from paper / computer. If you can afford to start and opperate your own sim-business with what little money you have go nuts... but that will be your only income, no one else can get a job then outside of that. Only one income at a time. Maybe that way you'd start a family-owned business that your children would inherit... if you're really smart with money! Can't wait to see what y'all come up with! Shame I have work tomorrow - but will play when I get home and should have something up to share by tomorrow night! Just excited to finally try and live a full sim life as I don't think I have ever fully done in the years I've played... I get bored doing the same things all the time. See if this 'fixes' that Quote http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/8a6798b252d89e12b3d476bb0fa63027.jpg ~ If I'm not here, I'm there ^ ~ ~ All new general discussion forum ~ Click pic !!! ~

One job at a time, remember? As for Pete - I'll upload in the morning for ya. Will take too long to do it now. Can you hold out? If not ask sis (Crazy Robster) she was the one who made him for me And me workin in your game - good to hear :ok: One thing I just thought of... marrying another sim and bringing them in is gonna give you a wad of extra cash... Hmmm... so much for doing it tough then, huh?

MrsBennington-Delson Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 so here wee gooooooooooo!!! haha So after Quinn started his career as a musician again, he barely found time for Jos (or the little Rioghan). Jos and Quinn's relationship didn't work. With every day they loved each other less and less. Gettin pissed off at each other is just one little "problem". http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_55cb0d18_95ebfc0a.jpg Jos had enough... http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_55cb0d18_35ebfd0c.jpg so she decided to move out with her baby boy Rioghan... http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_55cb0d18_75ebfd2c.jpg At first Quinn felt bad about loosing her but those tears didn't last long... http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_55cb0d18_35ebfdc3.jpg He picked up his guitar... turned his back to Jos and played so loud that he couldn't hear her leave... http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_55cb0d18_55ebfdcc.jpg http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_55cb0d18_95ebfe0d.jpg and well... little Rioghan was kinda lost xD lol But Jos wouldn't be Jos if she would start hating her life because of a man! So she stayed though and moved into a new life with Rioghan... http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_55ec0370.jpg Meanwhile Rav moved in next door http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_f5ebf977_f5ebfa38.jpg Jos thought it'd be nice to introduce herself so she did so http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_b5ec056b.jpg http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_55ec0582.jpg Rav and Jos got along great from the start especially bc they both seem to love music ^^ http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_95ec05f4.jpghttp://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_b5ec0608.jpg http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_15ec05ea.jpg Jos spend a lot of time with Rioghan... of course she just wants the best for him http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_b5ec04c8.jpg http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_55ec053c.jpg The same day Jos called Andi and invited him over... http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_95ec0710.jpg she felt like he should see his son and spend some time with him http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_55ec0796.jpg Although he was thinking of some andimals while he hugged Jos, she still decided not to hate him anymore... and they actually became best friends again (what I didnt like much but well Sims ) lol Andi spend the afternoon playing with Rioghan and both enjoyed it http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_35ec081e.jpg http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_15ec0821.jpg Meanwhile Jos took the time to take a nice relaxing shower http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_d5ec0db8.jpghttp://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_b5ec0dbe.jpg The next day it was already Rioghan's birthday!! =D He has grown to a kid and looks so sweet! (should be mum's genes xD) http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_b5ec0ab4.jpg In the evening, as Jos got home from work and went straight into bed, Rioghan decided to go out and play with Rav who was out randomly trying to get to know the other neighbors x) http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_35ec0c12.jpg Rioghan: "Sorry Rav for hitting you so hard... it was supposed to be harder" http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_75ec0c2f.jpg http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_d5ec0b8d.jpg http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_d5ec0c41.jpg But Rioghan you're too young to get the saying "revenge is sweet" haha http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_b5ec0bf5.jpg oh well after this tiring game with Rav, Rioghan walked upstairs and lied down next to his mum to get some sleep for school... http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_55ec0c86.jpg Next day Jos had to go to work at 7am but she couldn't because "she knows she has other responsabilities but she can't like her baby alone at hom" (although he left 1hr later for school -.- goosh those mothers sometimes LOL) But well at least Rioghan was a good kid and went to school... http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_75ec0fb6.jpg and as he arrived back home again Rav greeted him some "insider" thingy (idk) x) http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r50/draco-jojo/snapshot_d5ec0362_b5ec0f9d.jpg so yeah that's it till now ^^ Quote http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/f03af096463589b6a2bebdd0c1455573.jpg
DarknessLover Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 Are you trying to do the challenge thing? Quote The Park is Back? No way!
Ravynlee Posted September 28, 2008 Author Posted September 28, 2008 I think she's already started, yes. DL, are you going to try it? LOL at the 'revenge is sweet' that was cute! Haha. And your son looks like a little heartbreaker now, growing up so fast, awww. Funny to see my own version of sim-self in another's game - that's exactly the me I use! Woot! Maybe you should send me you so I have you as you are... that'd be sweet. Have to go to work but will send Pete when I get back. Promise. Lookin' good so far - and good solution too the familyfunds cheat. Didn't think of that. Well done :ok: Quote http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/8a6798b252d89e12b3d476bb0fa63027.jpg ~ If I'm not here, I'm there ^ ~ ~ All new general discussion forum ~ Click pic !!! ~
DarknessLover Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 I might do it. But I am a guy. Do you want to change up the rules a bit for male purposes? Quote The Park is Back? No way!
