Didn't start so great, Rock spent like 5 hours trying to fix these leaky pipes but kept making it worse. Got more and more embarrassed each time he failed miserably. Eventually we just had to give up and call the landlord to deal with it
Problem is the landlord never fucking leaves once you invite him in, he just sticks around watching TV and eating all the food.
It was a good thing for Tom though, he finally got a second person to vote for him.
BIG CHANGE I decided to help Bio out with his aspiration since I'd basically been neglecting him ever since I started this. to that end, meet the newest member of the household, Elizabeth Dewitt
So... turns out babies are pretty boring. Aged Elizabeth up after just a little while. Thought about opening the create-a-sim thing to make her look like Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite, but decided against it.
Things started out well enough with Bio reading to her...
Aaaaaand the child is immediately unsupervised.
Surprise: Dark Fox is not a good parent. He basically ignored Elizabeth the whole time and just got into fights with the other adults. What a good role model.
Congrats, after lots of hardwork, TKA is finally a C-lister. (also a good view of Elizabeth's tiny 2 x 6 bedroom bc there's not a lot of room in this apartment)
Just like the bear in the other house, whenever anyone got angry they started yelling at or hitting Bearcula. It was weirder this time tho bc they had to go into Eliazabeth's room specifically to yell at her stuffed animals.
Reading his daughter a bedtime story...
Aaaand then walking away and reading to story to himself. I guess it hooked him. (weird thing tho, this counted as reading to his child, so he still reached the aspiration goal by doing this)
I honestly have no idea what this is about but apparently Dark Fox and Jake are good friends in the sims.
All of them decided in Elizabeth's room to help her... learn how to play with blocks? After this I decided that Jake should start writing a non-fiction book about being one of seven dads to a little girl. Maybe it'll be a bestseller.
Didn't get a picture of it, but when Jake tried to feed Elizabeth a pb&j sandwhich she threw it against the wall. Not a big deal... until Tom came over and started playing in the mess.
Tom
you are a grown ass adult
a mayoral candidate
can you be a little more mature than a toddler?
On the plus side Tom finally managed to convince some of his roommates to vote for him
I.... don't have an explanation for this
This is going to be used as blackmail
Just... not even gonna change into your normal clothes first? No? Okay.
This is just Tormunds life now I guess
Honestly Jake is the only one being a good parent to Elizabeth. Bio basically forgot about her until Elizabeth asks him for food or a bath or something, and after a while, she just went to Jake for everything instead of Bio
Dark Fox sends everyone he knows a chain email
Rock deciding to make some planters and start a little herb garden
If he doesn't keep fucking hitting himself in the face with his hammer....
SOS went out to get the mail for his apartment and Dark Fox just??? Decided to fight him again?? He still didn't win, SOS kicked his ass
He then just came in and started playing video games...
Seriously what is Darkfox's problem? TKA was trying to practice his comedy routines but Dark Fox kept heckling him until the two started trading insults. Probably would've escalated into a fight if TKA hadn't walked away to calm down.
aww
That's just rude
Right after his big promotion, Tom passes out. He's up for election to the city council soon, hopefully he's able to drum up some support.
Dark Fox feeding off of the misery of his roommates
Tense, Sad, and Angry. Peak Jake.
I... where is she going? Is anyone supervising this child? Does anyone care she just walked out of the apartment?
Anyone? No? No one's noticed she's just walking around in the city?
I'm honestly surprised this didn't happen earlier
Jayko to the rescue. Honestly he should probably be signed over as her legal guardian at this point?
Birthday party time!
Heisen and Tormunds arrive wearing their reddest pairs of pants
Jesus christ... After almost an hour of trying, Bio just flatout refused to pick up Elizabeth so she could blow out the candles. Tom ended up having to do it
Hooray!... tormunds looks weirdly angry about this
Well, next time around I guess we'll see if Bio can be a better parent now that Elizabeth is in gradeschool... honestly, I have my doubts.
Next time I'll be checking on the Nexus household, so if you don't care about that then just skip the next post and I'll post a summary of anything that happens that affects the forum sims.
