Yoda: Ewww! SO GROSS!
Tara: *sniff sniff* It's stinky in here! Tee-hee!!
Everyone else: "That's disgusting, Yoda. Get some Depends."
Me: Fuck all of you. It's all your collective faults that we had three pee fails within a few sim hours last chapter. Y'all are incapable of sharing a bathroom. And fuck you in particular, Oscar. You just peed yourself a few minutes ago. And Bubbie, you are almost 100 years old. I love you but LET GO!! Damn.
"Heh-heh. I got the tub and I don't even care what those yahoos are doin' out there!"
Monday and school cannot come fast enough.
So to recap, the triplets are teens and, unless he really blows it, Mountain Dew is going to be the next torchholder. Pickle grew up and moved out. Bubbie is wearing out her welcome, and she and Jordan hate each other more than ever. And there was pee. Lots of pee. And a toilet that might be hazmat-suit-levels of toxic. Between all the peeing and needing to bathe, no one can be in the bathroom long enough to clean it without being shooed right back out.
Oh, and Tara. Tara has been around since Pickle's birthday party the day before. I could reset her, but this is more fun.
"Tee-hee! Can we put the shopping network on? Horror movies are so scary!!"
"No, Tara. We're watching the one-eyed bunny. It's Hulk's favorite. You're free to go home whenever the mood strikes you."
"Tee-hee! But I need to do my homework!"
"Then do it already!"
"Tee-hee!!"
You can't scare her, Bubbie.
"But I really want to!"
I know, you've been standing there with it queued for over an hour.
"Tee-hee!!"
"Dexter Bear. It's right there, under hobbies. I could use a new hobby."
No, Bubbie.
"I like having your friend here, guys. She's quiet for the most part, and she's a good audience. How long do you think she'll stay?.............................Guys?...........................Guys!................"
Next morning,
It's Monday, Tara. School day. Don't you think you ought to be going?
"Tee-hee! School is cool!"
At some point during the morning she poofed away, caught in Error Trap. I didn't see it happen, I was looking elsewhere. Regardless, she's invited to Oscar's birthday party, so she'll be right back.
She's in roughly the same spot, but I swear she's fine.
"Tee-hee! Party!!"
Well, fine for her at any rate.
Oscar survived to adulthood. He rolled "natural cook" for his trait, and his LTW is to become a 5-star chef. I'm sure he'll keep the fire department very busy.
"Tee-HEE!! I broke your sink! That's what you get for being so mean!"
Too bad so sad, Tara. The repairsim is still here fixing the tv.
"Actually, I finished the tv a fraction of a second before the sink broke, so I'll just take my 50 simoleons and be on my way!"
Dammit, Tara!
"Tee-hee! I'm doing homework at a party! I'm a good girl!"
Get stuck again and Bubbie will suddenly find Dexter Bear in her inventory.
Finally!!
I imagine his next goal is to bug the shit out of me as an uncontrollable, non-torchholder.
"Such pretty lighting! Is it the sunrise?"
No, that's the stove on fire because you're cooking at 4am.
"I got this, I got this!!"
There's my little daredevil! <3
"Man I love fire! Why isn't this working?"
Why is your head embedded in the stove?
"Whoa! There it goes!! It just got a little excited...heh-heh."
"Yikes! That came outta nowhere!"
"Hurry, Dewie, hurry!! I'm starving!!"
"Done and done! Wow. The stove's not even burned."
It's an ISBI miracle.
"*sigh* I guess I'll just have leftovers."
Brilliant idea, Yoda.
Let's take a moment to catch up with some of the better known non-actives, shall we?
So long, you arrogant, gross old pyro!
Tara grew up, became blond (during my brief foray into NRAAs' dresser mod), and married Sunny's daughter, Jacqueline.
Really Tara, it's 2016. No one has to be the "father" in a lesbian couple anymore.
I think Rodolfo wasn't even cold, yet.
Sunny decides to skip that pesky "in between" stage and go right for the ghost.
But she still finds her way back to Ahmad.
"The sex was terrible! At least Ahmad can take some pills!"
Thanks for that, Sunny. We were all dying to know.
"There. All clean. Finally!"
"BWAAAH!!!"
"HOLYSHITWHATTHEFUCK??"
"Heh-heh. I love this job."
It's not a job.
"Yes it is."
"Ugh. You two slobbering monkeys have a room. Use it."
Jordan is super-psyched for the torch to pass.
Unfortunately for her, she'll be old.
"You could've made Pickle torchperson or whatever. Then Biggie and I could've had years of viagra-less woohoo. But NO. You wanted to wait. Hmph."
"Lookin' good, Great-Grandma!"
"Thanks, kid! I got a figure to keep!"
Sure!
"Wow! Talk about the inside not matching the outside! How did she even afford this place?"
This was most of the party.
"I don't think I'm comfortable hanging out with my niece while she's in her underwear."
It's a bathing suit.
"Um, no. Those are definitely panties."
Bring it up with EA.
The triplets finally have their YA birthday. I throw caution to the wind and let them all blow at once. Coming up next chapter, we pass the torch, bring in a new household member, and Sky finally gets some company in the front yard.
Points
Every time you may roll a trait: +5 (Oscar)
Every fire: -5
No change in the score.
