Welcome back to The Quest Log! I am so excited to have this family back and to be playing them again. Roxanne did an amazing job with her turn, and with building their house!
As a reminder, Emmy is our heiress. She is the only one of the three Quest children to roll the mandatory geek trait.
The kids had to go to school and Rhonin to work, so my first time playing them and I ended up just seeing Jenny play with Paolo for a while.
But soon the kids arrive home from school, and just like in Roxanne's game, Emmy is being over dramatic with a mood swing.
I'm starting to see where she gets it though, as this was Rhonin's reaction to finishing his Fabulously Wealthy aspiration. Since Rhonin definitely meets most of the requirements already, we did have him go into Bodybuilder. Maybe that will help him with his intense feelings about finishing an aspiration.
As one way to help Emmy relax from her mood swing, I had her work on her knitting.
Flora, the level-headed twin, also tries to help her sister out by showing her funny videos on SimTube.
Rhonin has maxed out his body skill, so he's very close to finishing Bodybuilder.
So, I decided that this generation I was going to use Stardew Valley as my naming theme. So I decided to download sim versions of the eligible bachelors (and bachelorettes) from the game. I had Emmy invite Sebastian over because I have a soft spot for him since that's who my character married in my first playthrough.
Emmy: I know I'm just a teen and all, but here's a key to our house if you ever wanna come hang out. Please don't murder me.
Rhonin: Did you just give this strange man a key to our house? Sebastian: *flirts with Rhonin because of free-love NAP.*
I love that Jenny and Flora are both able to work on their aspirations together, at least for now. It's nice for them to bond.
Jenny completed her aspiration soon after that though. Since she already had a job as a bartender, I gave her the Master Mixologist aspiration.
Paolo is still around, and has just become an elder kitty.
Alleria: What is wrong with my niece? I thought Rhonin was kidding when he said his daughter was dramatic.
Nope. She's always like this. Every day.
Emmy: Aunt Alleria needs to mind her own business. It's hard being a teen, of course she doesn't understand, she's like OLD.
WHY DOES NOBODY UNDERSTAND ME?!
Yeah, I'm just gonna leave you to your workout.
May I have one of those glasses of wine? Your daughter is driving me mad. On second thought....most of those look expired. I'll just stick to my Dr Pepper Cream Soda.
Poor Paolo is sick, and I didn't see any of the wellness treats, in anyone's inventory so it looks like we'll be taking a trip to the vet.
Layon does run into his cousin Chelmey while he's there with Paolo.
Rhonin has completed his aspiration already, see I told you he was close. Next up he's going to work on Nerd Brain so that I can have him insta-upgrade any new appliances or tech that the family gets.
I'm starting to think you're juggling bottles in order to avoid your family. But congratulations on mastering the mixology skill.
Emmy knits an octopus and I absolutely adore it.
Jenny's time at the bar has come to an end because she's finished her master mixologist aspiration. I gave her Fabulously Wealthy next forgetting she used to be an author so that instant completed so then I gave her Super Parent.
Layton: Check out these babies. #JustLikeDad #douevenlift
Your Dad could break you in half like a toothpick, you have NO muscles. Sigh. Where is Flora? She's the only normal one around here.
Oh, okay. She's trying to burn the place to the ground. Not that I blame her, much. Things have been a little hectic around here lately.
On the bright side, I got to see my first firefighters since they were added to the game, so that's cool.
OF. COURSE.
WHY WOULDN'T IT BE RAINING WHEN I GET HOME FROM SCHOOL? NOTHING IN MY LIFE EVER GOES RIGHT.
Oh no, it looks like Emmy has worn off on Flora because now Flora is having her very first mood swing!
Flora: It's just so hard when she's like that all the time. She used to be fun, but now she's just always moody. I miss my sister. Oh no. Excuse me while I go cry.
I added a recycler into the family's basement so they can start earning bits and pieces.
Mainly because I really want to try out the candle maker and the fizzer.
Tonight is the twins' young adult birthday. Emmy gets an in sync triple arm pump from Flora, Jenny, and Rhonin.
Flora gets confetti and an airhorn from Layton and Rhonin.
Emmy adds good to her list of traits.
Flora adds materialistic to her list of traits.
Please excuse the error on her photo, I had forgotten that she didn't complete her aspiration as a teenager when I edited the photos.
Emmy: I'm really going to miss you sis, you take care out there, okay?
Flora: I'm not leaving yet. The controller wants to finish my aspiration first for some reason. Can you blame me for wanting more rewards points for moodlet solvers? I mean, you only need to paint me 3 more masterpieces.
Now that she's an adult, Emmy invites Sebastian over and flirts with him since she's finally able.
They even share their first kiss together fairly soon after. Not the most romantic of places, but they were on a date.
They end the date by becoming boyfriend and girlfriend, which Emmy is ecstatic about.
Rhonin has reached the top of the astronaut career.
Later that day, Emmy invites Sebastian back over and invites him to move in with her.
I decided to keep Sebastian's look the same since it really fits his character. His aspiration and personality is pretty accurate as well.
Atari is out tonight and after eating some of the family's food, she talks to Layton while he completes his homework.
Now that Emmy is an adult, things have calmed down a lot.
Speaking of Emmy, she and Sebastian are enjoying a nice fire down by the beach.
Sebastian: I know we haven't been together very long, but after living with a family where I don't matter for so long, it's refreshing to see how much your family cares about you, and how much they have accepted me already. I want to be with you forever, Emmy. Will you marry me?
Emmy: I thought you'd never ask!
Emmy immediately leaps into Sebastian's arms, giving him bedroom eyes. So, we'll just leave them be.
After using move objects to temporarily add an arch inside the pillars, Sebastian and Emmy plan a wedding event right in their green house. It's definitely perfect for a gardening couple.
Layton: I think I need to go to the doctor, I don't feel so well.
Jenny: Layton, you're fine. We're at your sister's wedding, you're not going anywhere right now.
Despite the commotion in the audience, Emmy and Sebastian successfully tie the knot.
Emmy is then immediately attacked by bees. What a great wedding this is.
Espella (Vereesa's daughter) also came to the wedding, but she chose to box instead of watch the vows.
Espella: MY MOM SHOULD HAVE BEEN HEIRESS. Your Mom wasn't a geek, unfortunately.
Alleria: I'm going to head out big brother. I love you.
Rhonin: Thanks for coming, you're welcome here any time.
Rhonin has completed his Nerd Brain aspiration while cheating against nobody in chess. Next up I gave him Renaissance Sim.
Flora finally finishes her aspiration. As you saw previously, I gave her fabulously wealthy next.
Flora: Goodbye sis, I really will miss you.
Emmy: I'll miss you too sis. I'm sorry I was so dramatic in our teen years. Please be safe with your new roommate, you never know how creepy someone might be.
Flora: Hi, are you Knox? I'm Flora, your new roommate.
Knox: Hi Flora! Yep, that's me. Seems like this place attracts people with names like yours. I used to rent this place from Blossom and Mary, but unfortunately they both passed away recently and it's just been so lonely.
I just love this lot. Simproved did such an amazing job!
Knox and Flora got along really well, and they both hated how awful the air was near their home. So they decided to work together to make things better.
Eventually, this led to a romance between them.
And eventually, once everything had been cleaned up, the couple married with only Flora's close relatives in attendance.
Of course, Layton and Rhonin spent most of the ceremony mourning Blossom and Mary who they never met.
Ironically, this is the exact place their graves were when I loaded the lot. I actually had to make sure Roxanne didn't murder them or something! Haha. She usually plays with aging off, but we turned it on again and so they just happened to die while I was playing the main household.
It was a beautiful ceremony though.
Soon, Flora found herself pregnant with her first child.
It was a baby girl that they named Maru.
Shortly after Maru was born, the couple purchased a second shipping container to add to their house so that they could expand their family once more.
Here's a CAS picture of Knox as well as an aged up Maru and, the new addtion, Marnie.
That's where we'll leave this chapter! I will have another chapter out as soon as possible! Feel free to check in with us over at BoolProp, we'd love to chat!
