RBPV 6.4

Darius is getting something of an extreme start here. This doesn't even count as a box. More of a windbreak really.

It has the basic necessities though, as long as you don't count a roof or a door ... or walls as necessities.

What you probably aren't seeing here is the nabbing of Rosica for a favour.

One painting of the "humble beginnings" for the future first ever Mayor of Pleasantview.

Oh goody, soggy furniture. On the other hand bonus for the $100!

Bree moves in with more money than they can keep just in time for Darius to age up.

And get one hell of a promotion. Rank 6 already.

Sending the extra cash to the overseer and remembering that $1000 His parents put in the bank for him (and all the rest of the children).

Left them just enough for utilities and a bit of an expansion!
Still only a windbreak though.

The best part though; Bree rolled farming!!!!!!!! I love you Bree!!!!!
Downside, I would like them to have space for a garden AND a backyard. This lot is not big enough so she will have to wait until they move into larger accommodation next round.

Bonus, she brought fish with her.

Now that is service! Paper delivered directly to the bathroom door.

So, because I have a hacky computer that is more of an "Unconventional Situation Facilitator", Bree can start to work on her gardening badges. We will call this the "Basic Plant Care Research". She won't get too far anyway. Computer study is sloooooooooow.

More soggy furniture :/

Tipple! Her name is Sally Tipple! I really think I need to do something about that outfit though, I mean really, she's drunk yes, but one would assume she put her clothes on while still sober. Those shoe straps were not fastened by inebriated hands.

WOOT!!

He even brought home enough to give them a roof and a door ... and completely enclosed walls!!!

Then he played in a puddle.

Darius: When I become Mayor I think I will propose building a cruise ship terminal right here in Pleasantview.
Bree: Oooh! Vacations are good. Pleasure sim likes vacations.
And she has almost always had a 'go on vacation' want stuck in her panel since.

Of all the skills they build, I hate building charisma most. Pretty sure this is left over from playing Sims Online where you got the fun of paying $15 a month to watch your sim talk to themselves in a mirror ALL THE TIME ... because skills decayed.

Well ... that was a little sooner than I had planned. Was kind of hoping they could hold off on getting married until they moved to the new lot. On the other hand yay for not a blank notification window anymore.

The money trees are coming ripe two or three times a day depending on how soon I get one of them on harvesting them. This is a good thing.

Bree is not having a good time with this pregnant thing.

I finally got smart and got him a thinking cap. And giggled ... a lot ... because he looks so worried while playing against himself. Relax, Darius, either way, you win.

This is how Bree spends most of her time. I refuse to let another sim miscarry due to low motives.

Oh and also this. Hygiene and Comfort all at once. Thank you bubble baths!!

Yay Logic point!

Time to make sure the baby has the Harrell name. You would think his parents would be a little more interested in the proceedings.

They are still a cute couple.
Wait a minute ... what is going on in the background?

Ummm ... yeah. I have no explanation for this.

Stuart. So formal saying goodbye to his brother.

While Noe goes right in for the hug. The thought occurs I may want to have the older Harrell children spend a little more time with the younger ones.

Yeah ... I still got nothin. Isiah is on a roll ... of weird.

Alexander and Braden are managing a conversation though. An actual conversation! No attempts at murder in site.

Darius spent his wedding night skilling because they are going to need all the money they can get to guild a house on the new lot.

Bree joined him after a short nap. See, 'go on vacation' right there at the front of her want panel.

Bump #1.

Yay! I think he can take the stupid hat off now.

Bree seems to have acquired a case of pregnancy hair.

That awkward moment when you have more bolts for your male in-laws than your husband.

Unless I am horribly mistaken, and I am almost positive I am not, that is bread with jam and pickles. *shudder* I ate some weird shit when I was pregnant (sour cream and onion potato chips with cheese and chocolate sauce dip) but that is just gross.

YES!

Back to the stupid hat and the mirror *sigh*

One down, one to go.

This would be how he can manage to skill most of the night with little to no sleep .. or need for much else either.
Bree's looks about the same, just with less points to spend so her motives are a little more volatile.

Stupid hat off again!

See what I mean about slow? That is out of a total of 1000.

Mood boosting date.

Alexander stopped by while Bree went back to meditating.

Pic that will screw with your perception, that is the floor behind her, while Bree announces the imminent arrival of spawn.

Meet Adeline .. and what is this I see??

OMG! She has freckles! And I think I detect red hair!!! *crosses fingers* please be red, please, please please!

I agree.

Stinky baby fumes make for a romantic atmosphere.

You really wouldn't know these two only have 2 bolts.

Bree has a turn on for "Great Cook" so Darius put the stupid hat back on to work up cooking and see if he can change those 2 bolts to 3.

She also likes the clown-in-a-box.

Darius: All ready to pack up and move?
Bree: Do you think we have enough money?
Darius: No, but we will make it work.
Somehow.
With the new house and utilities bringing the multiplier up to 10 for the Harrell side (3 badges+3 houses+3 utilities+1 rank 5 business=10) and Adeline bringing the number of playable sims up to 12 the Harrells finish up this round with a score of 120!
