Chapter Six

The day before her birthday, Isabela contemplates her reflection, wondering how adulthood will change her.

She doesn't worry too long, there's a brother's ass to kick at video games after all.

One last family dinner with the children.

The day of the twin's birthday arrives, yet they do nothing different.

Varric's couch potato-ness seems to be catching, Damon spends a lot of time watching tv as well.

With about a half a dozen species of perfect plants, Tatiana can finally call herself a master gardener.

Soon she finds herself in the kitchen backing birthday cakes, she can hardly believe her babies are about to become young adults, seems like just yesterday they were in cribs.

Varric ponders his wish before blowing out the candles.

And finally becomes a man.

Isabela puts less stock in wishes and just cheers for cake, yay!

To her parents chargin, her rebelliousness does not seem to falter any as she ages.

While the rest of her family goes around the rest of the evening cleaning up, Isabela unlocks one of the unused large rooms and sets it up for herself, seems she's not ready to leave the nest, but she is ready to leave her childhood room at least.

Again!?

The next morning, Isabela and Varric graduate. Varric is valedictorian and voted most likely to never leave the house, while Isabela is voted most likely to get arrested. She laughs at her ribbon and hangs it with pride in her bedroom.

Poor Varric, even as an adult, he's not safe from his sister's teenaged pranks.

Eventually the computer is safe though, and he gets a job with the police department and moves out. The news of his and Darlene's immediate engagement comes as no surprise to his parents, while Isabela just scoffs. 


The evening, Damon and Tatiana get old.

The house is under Isabela's reign now, most of the rooms will suffer a redesign, the living room is the first.

Isabela gets a tattoo to celebrate her new found freedom, the tattoo artist gets a little too close.

Meanwhile, due to her amazing athletic prowess, Isabela is award an honorary degree from Sims University.

What can she say? They're not wrong. She joins the criminal career and is instantly promoted to thug, they know talent when they see it. Her boss Dallas, Darlene's older brother, takes an instant liking to Isabela.

In the kitchen, Damon contemplates grandchildren.



Notes: So that's generation two started, which is single parent, two children, thief, perfect careers and it's so you! Tatiana perfected the gardening skill just hours before the twins aged up, for a while there I was worried she wouldn't get it done and I would fail on the first generation. SP married Varric and Darlene within 24 hours of him being out of the house, babies will probably follow quickly no doubt. I wasn't sure about giving Isabela the honorary degree, but figured she had eared the points, why not use 'em. Besides, I tend to have problems with the lower levels of the criminal career, the sims will go to work but then stand outside the rabbit hole and not enter. I'm hoping with Isabela starting out at level three, I might not get that glitch. Isabela's entire trait list is, excitable, athletic, rebellious, kleptomaniac, commitment issues and her extra one from getting the degree is hot headed. Varric's traits are, excitable, couch potato, eccentric, genius and brave.

  1. I love and hate single parent rolls. But they always make for great stories!

    By the way, as long as all your parameters and goals are met before your sims DIES you've passed. Doesn't have to be before the next heir takes over. : )
