Starting off with a beautiful family picture with Holly, Rogue, Penny, Marcella, and Jonah.
Of course you can’t forget these lovebirds.
Marcella joined the drama club, she was never interested when she was younger but now she just wants to become a famous actress. “Oh I can’t wait, I’m going to be soooo famous.”
Jonah is a little rambunctious scamp when he’s not trying to invent things in his room.
Updated wall of mounted fish, Rogue has been doing a great job.
The house got an update too after Penelope got a promotion.
Rogue also got a promotion!
We can’t forget Mayor Whiskers, he aged into an elder (again) but this time for good. He still has spirit though.
Look who stopped by for a visit! Supriya, seems she’s also turned into an elder but she still has a strong pack of abs and fitter then almost any Sim we know.
Spooky Day came and with it the little trick or treaters
Marcella tried to sneak some candy and got tricked!
Unfortunately we had some tragic news the next day, on Day of the Dead. Snuggs past away.
We made sure to make a small graveyard in the back corner of the lot. Snuggs, we’ll miss you. ❤
Rogue has been helping a lot with the kids homework and spending time with them after school.
Leisure Day came, but the summer weather was not cooperative. It was plenty warm but it stormed the whole time.
It was a shame because the camping grounds were beautiful and the family ended up staying in the tent the whole day.
Well except for Marcella, she just HAD to take some selfies.
Penelope went into labor! Please introduce…………….a baby girl! Her name is Holly Tarley. It was bittersweet knowing she’s the last child between Rogue and Penny.
It was season premiere night and while Holly was sleeping the whole family snuck away to watch the new episode of Game of Groans.
Rogue still had his mission, once he finally got his suit completed and went back to the lab to explore below.
The plants were everywhere, moving and spreading like vines.
He was not expecting what he found! He tried talking to it but the ‘mother plant’ basically screamed at him and he ran out. Next step was to make a vaccine for the townies and then maybe some of them could help him fight against this thing.
So we’re going to start off with another birthday, Snuggs aged into an elder kitty!
But we have good news, Penelope is pregnant! This will be her last child.
The kiddos are definitely enjoying their summer. They’ve been playing with their friends almost every day.
Although some of the boys took part in the neighborhood brawl event, no one in the family liked it actually and chose to ignore it. That is until Jonah got beat up by Dario Jang, then he started doing it too.
Meanwhile, the girls watched. Marcella and Cassandra’s daughter Araceli were becoming best friends.
When they say that older cats get sick faster, they mean it! Not a day went by when Snuggs became sick and Penny had to take her in.
Also a new development happened near the vet clinic. Looks like Malcolm’s wife turned him! Must be that whole evil eternal love bit.
Penny made sure to enjoy the summer too, there was a heat wave going on and the best place for that was in the cooling waters of the local swimming pool.
Rogue made sure to stop by after his day of work too, ya know for an “old man” he still looks good.
I’m telling you, birthdays all around! It’s time for Marcella to age into a teenager 😀
Happy birthday baby girl.
Oh my plumbob, she is gorgeous. Marcella aged really well.
She maxed out creativity earning her the creatively gifted skill
She has 100% Positive responsibility
She has 80% Positive Manners
Her aspiration is Master Actress
Her new trait is vegetarian
Kirsten, Blair, Nibbler, Mitchell, and Zane.
Blair’s family. Notice someone missing? Well that’s because….
Harley, Autumn, and Iggy Pancakes
She married Iggy! Bob and Eliza’s 3 kids and in the middle of their young adult years so naturally they had to move out and have families of their own.
Jerrica, Landen, and Jasmine Ralston
The Ralston family! All three kids live next door to each other in Newcrest so their kids can grow up together. Bob and Eliza remain in Willow Creek enjoying their golden years and the quiet.
Xavier, Calliope, and Baby Roberson.
The Roberson family! And yes…his name is Baby. Gotta love the generator lol
Jonah Tarley, aged with the Happy Toddler trait and gained the Genius trait with the Rambunctious Scamp aspiration.
Penelope made sure to make her signature chocolate cake and was so very proud of her little boy growing up.
Now that he was big enough to play with his older sister without being a bother, he spent a lot of time with her and his new classmates.
Rogue also found the location to Sylvan Glade!
Yay for more dead, mounted fishies 😀
It was also Rogue’s birthday! “Elder” is such a relative term. Was he getting older? Yes. Did he feel old? No.
He also still couldn’t let it go, it felt like years that he was trying to figure this mystery out. He’s just glad that Strangerville has been quarantined, because if it spread than there was no stopping it.
It finally happened. Penelope took up the courage to confront her cheating husband. She tried to pretend everything was okay at home for the kids but she was at a loss. “Rogue, where is she? Who is she?” “What are you talking about, and why are you here? HOW did you even get here it’s quarantined and blocked to civilians?!” “I told them I was your wife, they can’t cover for you anymore! Well, who is the woman taking my husband away.”
“You really want to know? Come here and see.” He pointed to the very obvious alien looking plant nearby. Penelope stood there dumbfounded not understanding, and then he pointed to more from there line of sight and the townies that looked just a little off.
“Honey…what is going on here?” Rogue felt relieved honestly. He told her everything. How at first he was breaking protocol and snuck into a secret lab, and then accidentally released spores into the world. How for the last -who knows how long- he has been trying to correct the very big mistake he made.
“Why didn’t you just tell me!” Penny was so confused. Relieved and hurt all at once. How could he not tell her something so important. But you know, the military.
When they got home they spent some much needed time together, woohoo couldn’t fix the problem but it would certainly help.
She would never admit it to him, but age does take a toll…
So Jonah decided to skip school with his friend Tylor.
They spent the morning at the Ancient Ruins talking and playing. His grade lowered a letter and as a genius he wasn’t too thrilled about that but he didn’t think anyone would notice and he was right. His parents had so much going on that they just always expected him to do the right thing. Which he did most of the time, but he was still a kid and kids wanted to do stupid stuff and have fun.
Also, doesn’t Jonah have the coolest room? I’ve been waiting for this Pufferhead player-made pack.
Just for fun I sorted the family into their respective houses:
Penelope- Owlenmoon
Rogue- Ivybell
Marcella- Owlenmoon
Jonah- Ivybell
Don’t worry, we haven’t forgotten about Marcella! She’s doing great. She is a B student currently and has maxed out her creativity.
She also completed her childhood aspiration! Honestly I don’t think I’ve ever done this so I was really excited. 🙂
Bernardo, Wanda, Katelyn, Kyleigh, Malcolm, Tylor, and Deandre.
So I wanted to give a shout out to the evil, growing family of the Landgraab’s. Wanda and Tylor are Malcom’s younger siblings but after his parents died he became their caregiver. Kyleigh is a vampire and Deandre is too. It’s unsure about Katelyn yet.
Hello! I’m back, sorry I disappeared for a couple of months. You know how it is with life, anyway. A couple changes have been made to my game. First I changed the default skin, I’m not sure if I like it but I’ll be keeping it for now. Secondly, I’ve gone through and taken out some bad CC but that really shouldn’t effect anything because I don’t think it was stuff I was really using. I also had to go through and update some of the mods I was using (like MCCC, etc.)
We’re starting off the chapter with… While everyone slept, Rogue went back to the lab now that he had a key card- couldn’t keep his curiosity in check.
“Plum…” Is that pollen? Rogue couldn’t quite make it out, but whatever they were- they were floating out in waves. It gave him a really bad feeling.
After descending lower, Rogue walked into a cloud and then blacked out.
When he finally woke up and was able to get out of the lab, the skies in Strangeville were different.
“What…did I DO.”
Meanwhile, Penelope’s birthday finally came and she’s an official adult now. Goodbye younger years.
Rogue came back, still acting different. Any time Penny tried to ask him about it he switched the subject or immediately went to spend time with the kids. Penelope was almost assured he was cheating on her.
“What is this buddy? Is it a baba?” “Daddy, dat a bawtle siwwy.”
At that moment, Rogue realized he was missing out on his family’s lives.
“Why am I learning this?” “Penny, self-defense is always a good life lesson to have..” “But I’m not in the military Ro.”
Rogue let her whine, but he felt more comfortable knowing she could protect herself and even the kids if it ever came down to it. With everything going on in Strangerville, he didn’t want to take any chances.
Also, it’s a sad day in Willow Creek. Bella and Mortimer Goth have passed away. I found a cemetery in the Gallery that I placed right across the street. It’s in Day of the Dead theme so I felt that was perfect with Bella’s family ties.
Rogue learned how to manage his time better. He looked for clues while on the job so he could be home at normal hours so Penny didn’t worry so much.
The town was changing though, alien looking plants started growing everywhere.
And the citizens were acting strangely.
Back home it was Jonah’s birthday! Happy birthday!
