Mandragora 3.1 ][ angie sucks at this

[angieshade]

I'm just gonna admit up front that this is a boring update. But since I don't think anybody's actually reading it, that's okay. :P Mainly I just don't want to totally lose track of what's happening.






Dongsool gets better acquainted with his father-in-law.






...And with his grandmother-in-law. Nice to know you're feeling spry as ever, Vicki. >:/







Dongsool: Uh, are you--
Catherine: I can't get MORE pregnant.

Yes, I'm censoring them with tiny mandrakes. /nerd






Catherine: ... Did I break him? D:

No, you just tired him right out. :P I've never seen them "Worry" over each other before! It's kind of cute.






Keep dreaming, Laksh. It's not like you guys are hurting, anyway.

Relatedly, I just noticed that both Catherine and her father are Popularity sims who married Fortune. :D Somewhere during this round, Dongsool hit the top of his Slacker career and started looking around for a Criminal job to fulfill his ~dreams~. He's a Con Artist now, but as of this update he hasn't actually gone to work yet.






Dongsool: We're going to have a baby!
Catherine: Oh shit, we are!
Karla Meester: ...She's only just figured this out?






No, she just didn't realize she was having it RIGHT AFTER DINNER.

It's a girl! Dawn. With black hair (of course), Amabel's eyes, and... this is where I quit and had to go fix the genetics on some of my skins, because I swear to God she is even paler than Dongsool. >_O I'm cool with a few anomalies like that, because god knows RL genetics are not that cut and dried, but come on. Besides, I'm tired of phosphorescent sims. :P






IMMEDIATE BABY SWARM. I keep forgetting to put in the mod that stops them doing that. Let the poor thing sleep!






Benedict invites his son over for drinks and Red Hands. It's just like old times! Er, but with more alcohol.






AWWWWWW






Catherine finally finishes her self-portrait. Not quite up to the previous ones, but then Benedict had his creativity maxed by the time he was like 17.






I RECKON SO, Mr. Repairman. I reckon so.






One of the rare occasions when Lakshmi is not jumping her husband or wanting to call her friend Theresa.






Catherine is a pretty hands-off mother, but apparently it works?






That's no way to treat your granddaughter!

(Where's Catherine on this momentous occasion? In bed already, because YES, you did see a tiny baby bump in that previous shot. Jesus, guys, don't waste any time or anything.)






She came down later. :D Toddler Dawn is awfully cute, even if she is freakishly pale.






Benedict dotes on her. I'm letting him do a lot of the childcare, because it's not like he has anything else to do except jump around in a llama suit for three hours a day, and also his life bar is getting really really full. :(

In fact, THE NEXT DAY--






D:

...Actually, he came for Lakshmi, just as she was about to fix herself some breakfast.






I don't even know what she was whining about, the woman was loaded, apparently!






Benedict: Hi kids, I'm home!

Great timing, dude.






THREE! THREE BATTY OLD LADY GHOSTS, ah ah ah.






Catherine consoles herself by discovering a new star. (She kept trying to spy on people earlier, and she was due later that evening anyway, so I figured she might as well stay up.)








Baby time! Aspiration for everybody!

...Which made me a little sad, because Lakshmi had a grandchild want locked. :(







Another girl, with BLUE eyes and a skintone more like Catherine's. I think we have a front-runner for heir. >___> Her name is Danielle.






Grandpa instantly takes over. Oh, Benedict, ILU.
