The last time we visited the Foxes, Generation One had entered their elder stage. That officially places second generation heir, Graham in charge.
Since taking the familial wheel,
so to speak,
everything has been perfect in the Fox home.
The small family spends a lot of time together and Graham’s parents have embraced his new wife, Melisa, as one of the family.
Both couples,
young and old,
are very much in love and can frequently be found in one another’s arms.
Graham is still working his way up the vampire ranks to achieve his prime vampire aspiration.
For this aspiration, I find preying on the endless visitors to be the best policy for leveling quickly.
Sorry Mortimer!
(You’d think they’d stop visiting by now)
It doesn’t exactly go hand in hand with his vegetarian trait but it doesn’t give him a negative moodlet so why wouldn’t I take the easy way out?
Besides, Graham has the insatiable thirst weakness. He eats plenty of plasma fruit/salad to get through the day (and not scare the neighbors away).
Overall Graham’s already super close to completing his aspiration.
Glenn, on the other hand, took much longer to get there.
If you remember Glenn is an aspiring freelance botanist so he spends a lot of time in the garden.
In fact,
Glenn didn’t complete his aspiration until one day before this happened.
He couldn’t quite hold on until his grandchild was born.
Oh, wait, back up.
I didn’t tell you guys.
Melisa found out she was pregnant right after family portrait time in the topmost picture
I wasn’t even sure if these two were going to have any children.
Just like the previous generation it appeared that neither one of them was going to roll a try for baby want.
Except this generation, our heir is immortal so he has plenty of time!
His wife however does not.
She’s already an adult.
So a few weeks after the wedding someone in this family finally rolled a baby want!
Melisa is a lovely sim that I don’t think I’ve told you much about. She is good, active, clumsy, and aspires to be a friend of the world.
Her aspiration is going to be tricky I have trouble maxing out the charisma skill so it may be next to impossible on a sim I’m first gaining control over as an adult. I guess we’ll see, only time will tell.
With the help of a busy neighborhood, Melisa hit the 20 friends mark already. By getting to know a group of teens walking by.
We might just make it Melissa, all you have left is to max that skill.
Melissa works as an ace engineer in the tech guru career.
Why?
I don’t know!
That’s how she came when she joined the house. She doesn’t have any of the skills for it and I couldn’t think of anything better for her. So I’m pretty sure that’s as far as that will go.
Melisa is also way better at handling this whole pregnancy thing than Rosa was.
She may not be as comfy as a bug in a rug but she keeps on going without much complaint.
Speaking of Rosa.
She was just as excited as her son at the prospect of meeting Generation Three.
Grim had other plans for her, however.
Unlike with Glenn, whom only Rosa mourned because she was a widow, there were witnesses.
Just like that the Fox legacy is back to just two.
This time however there is an imminent incoming.
Oh, how I miss my old hospital I’ll redownload it one of these days.
There were tears…
mine mainly,
I don’t want to deal with all these kids.
Something’s up with my game I think. Even townies are having multiple births at an alarming rate.
*sigh*
Whatever, me and the Fox family got this.
Welcome (from left to right) Harrison, Maddison and Grayson.
Since Graham received one of his mom’s traits (self-assured) I have added that to our list for potential heirs.
Now in order to be heir you have to meet at least one of the following requirements (listed in order of importance): red hair, female, self-assured.
Since we don’t know what color their hair is right now at this moment the heir is Maddison.
It’s a good thing Graham is a vampire, he never sleeps, so there’s always someone able to deal with the crying.
It does however make it much harder for Graham to keep his father’s garden in pristine condition. He can only maintain it at night and I swear every time I sent him out there, once he started, a baby would cry!
This was a very rough stage for everyone. (Mainly me)
Graham found his break from the chaos in exercise and dark meditation.
Melisa finds her reprieve in exercise as well.
Grampa Glenn makes constant ghostly visitations but is no bother.
If he breaks something he fixes it right after and helps Graham keep his sanity.
Eventually, though, the babies aged up.
(I know I could have done that immediately but that just seems like cheating to me, I hate doing it.)
Ok, so Harrison is definitely out of the heir race.
Madison may still be in it if she’s a redhead under there and Grayson is definitely in the running.
As we lay the toddlers down for bed
Definitely my favorite time of the day.
Let’s say goodbye to our founders, Rosa and Glenn.
You both did a great job and the future for the Foxes looks bright because of you.
