Veronaville Round 6 - Antonio Monty

 

Antonio Monty

Fortune - Become Media Magnate

Is perm platinum, and 71 years old.  Antonio is a Celebrity Chef.  His wishes will not be fulfilled unless he rolls woohoo, or unless ASimWen accidentally does it.  haha  At any rate, here are his first wishes:  Become a warlock, woohoo in bed (hahaha), talk to, and call someone.  Sounds like he wants to call someone for a booty call!  Antonio is a Celebrity Chef. 

Tybalt Capp

Popularity - Have 20 Simultaneous Best Friends

Wow what the heck is Tybalt Capp doing here??  Welp, before the LTW above he had the irritating Have 20 Best Pet Friends LTW.  Being that his sister Hermia wanted to raise 20 pets, he stuck around home making pet friend after pet friend....until he had his LTW, which means he is perm plat now, and no wishes will be fulfilled.  However on the side after making all these animal friends, Tybalt and Beatrice Monty had an affair and fell in love, making a little girl named Elvira.  He always told Bea, as soon as he had his LTW he would marry her.  He immediately moved out of Capp Manor, and in with Beatrice.  Will he actually roll to marry her?  Maybe she will?  Tybalt is 56, and has a long time to go yet before his Grim party.  Ty is unemployed.

Beatrice Monty

Popularity - Wants to be a Captain Hero

Oh boy.  What can I say about Bea?   She is perm plat having reached 20 Best Friends last round.  No wish fulfilling here either!  Let's see if either she or Tybalt roll "get married" or "engaged!" Bea will age up in 12 days. She is currently a Desk Sargent in the Law Enforcement Career.

Elvira Monty

Grow Up

Elvira is the offspring of Tybalt and Beatrice.  She will be the only one who will actively get wishes fulfilled this round.  First wishes:  Get these skills:  Creativity, Logic, and get Creativity 8, Grow Up Well.  Elvira will cake up almost right away.

PETS

There are three pets here.  Beatrice runs a retirement center for elder pets who can no longer contribute to the Veronaville pet adoption pool.  Who is here:

EA dog Abbey

Abbey will pass at any moment, she has only a sliver of life left. She is 33.

EA dog Alegra

She will pass this round....she is 31 days old.

Haya (Monty)

Technically, Haya could have had another litter of puppies, but Hermia wanted to get started with a new breeder, so Tybalt took her with him when he moved out.  Haya is Alegra's granddaughter.  She ages up to elder in 7 days.

So what happened last round?

It was all about Bea's brother Benedick, who had not moved out yet. Benedick had women coming and going at all hours trying to fulfill the woohoo X number of Sims wish.  He had is baby momma over several times, Ariel Capp.  He also had a fiancée named Trista Shaw who caught him and Ariel together, which consequently ended the engagement.  He wished for girls out of the wishing well...oh my it was a fun lot.   He never threw get engaged again, so it was up to Ariel to snag him later when she threw get married, and he was unplayable.  A big wedding was had on the Ariel Monty lot last round so we shall see him later to see how he is getting along in domestic bliss.   My rule is, only one of the Sims in the couple has to throw the wish.  And Ariel did..   We will see how it goes when her lot is played.

Beatrice gave birth to Tybalt Capp's child, a cute little girl named Elvira.  Tybalt worked hard to get the 20 best pet friends so he could marry Bea.  It took all his life, being an old man by the time it was accomplished.

Antonio?  He was very easy going.  Wrote three books and earned the hobby plaque in Film and Literature.  He was also a big advocate of Elvira's care.

Alright, so LET'S PLAY!

Yes, yes yes...Dora Ottomas is Antonio's squeeze on the side.  Way back when, ASimWen had to add the Ottomas family to the neighborhood so Dora would be handy for Antonio.  My but he was glad to see her, a sight for sore eyes.  They are a three bolt attraction!  I actually considered marrying them off just for the fun of it, but decided not to unless Antonio rolled it.  He has not.

In the middle of Antonio and Dora's "private moment," Grim came for Abbey.  

Tybalt took it hard, Abbey must have been one of his Pet Friends.  He quickly and quietly arranged for her tombstone to be moved to Gotheir Green Lawns, along with the tombstone of Bailey the Cat that was in the back yard.

The Grim hoopla being over, Tybalt turned his attention to his daughter.  It didn't take much for them to become best friends.  Tybalt was always on hand to visit to be in her life.  Beatrice came home from work, announcing a promotion!  Go you, Bea!

Tybalt:  Beatrice, I love you so much.  I hope we can be together for the rest of our lives.

Beatrice:  Oh Ty, I have missed having you here every second.  I feel complete now.

ASimWen:  *gag*

Monday was a full day.  Woohoo for Antonio, the passing of Abbey, a job promotion for Bea, and Ty and Bea realizing they should have been together long before now.  It was also Elvira's cake up day.

What a cutie patooty!  Elvira realized an excellent wish of "Grow Up Well".  Her wishes were to get a puppy or kitten, get an A+, jump rope, and tell an inside joke.  

Ty and Bea celebrated Elvira's birthday by having a close moment  Antonio wandered why in the heck he ever had any reservations about the Capp family.  He couldn't remember now what the old feud was about.

MMMMM!!!  Mac 'n Cheese, fulfilling a nice wish.  Kids wish for the best things!  OOOh  daddy why are you walking around in your skivvies???  Oh...

Oh my.  Grimmie made another appearance, this time  to take EA dog Alegra.  Everyone, not just Tybalt, loved Alegra.  Ah well, at least there will be no more peeing in the house going on. 

Soon after.....Alegra's passing Tybalt was called on an outing.  He chose Gotheir Green Lawns for the gathering so he could tend to all the pet graves.  It was fitting.

After placing the graves of Bailey the Cat, Abbey and Alegra, it was time for socializing.  Everyone understood, and the outing was a 'good time'.

No sooner did Tybalt return home from the cemetery he was called out again by a different group of people to the grocery store to sample wine.

He did the weekly shopping and returned home.  Another 'good time.'

ASimWen was wondering why Ty and Bea had not rolled "get married".  It seemed that Ty was spending lots of time with friends and not enough time with Bea.  Decided to do something about that, even though it meant maybe some wishes would get filled.

Ty and Bea started dating at home.  Still didn't roll get married, or even...get engaged.  OH MY.  What the heck was it going to take???  This date ended, and Bea FINALLY rolled it.  Yay!  There was going to be a wedding!

Using Chris Hatch's Wedding Mat....a wedding was quickly put together, and a nice mixture of Capps and Montys invited.  The attendants were Juliet (Capp) Monty and Ty and Bea's daughter Elvira.  (If you are interested in the Wedding Mat, or any other of Chris's MODs a listing can be found here on MTS2.)

The vows commenced...it was so beautiful, almost like a dream.  At least it was for ASimWen...it was tuff getting this to take place!  The wedding guests were more than delighted.

And now for some gratuitous wedding pictures.  :-)

And you may kiss the bride...errr....the groom....

***CLAP CLAP CLAP***

More Clapping...awwww....such a beautiful family....

Stuffing face...dancing..."HANG LOOSE, BABY!'

"Man Auntie Julie...school is so tuff.  I want an A+ so bad!!!"

"I am gonna beat you, Uncle Benedick~!!"

The wedding party was finally over, and it was a huge success.  And not one Capp or Monty poked or slapped, the old family feud was over.  For good. 

Bea and Ty celebrated the usual way on their wedding night.  Then, Bea made a "beeline" outside to the trash can and started stomping on roaches.  ???  ASimWen didn't even know they were milling around out there.  And thus, she contracted the roach-flu.  A-HAH.  This was a perfect opportunity to see if the genie lamp could help Bea out before she spread the illness other family members.  YES.  Nice to know.  What ASimWen doesn't know is why she started bawling after being cured?  Maybe from happiness?

Not too long after getting married, Beatrice and Tybalt were expecting their second child.  And.. ASimWen decided to see if she could get Antonio to roll "Get married to Dora."  Nope.  They dated at the Love Maze and woohooed several times... and he never rolled it.  Although, Dora had it locked into her wishes.  But *sigh* she wasn't playable so it didn't count.  Stuffy Knowledge Sims.  It was even Spring when Sims typically roll wishes such as get engaged, or married.

Bea's last promotion before the baby is born...and oh looky a co-worker came home with her.  It is Elgar Capp~!

The two talked and laughed until the "outing" was top level, and Elgar went home.   Here Elgar is saying he is a Police Chief.

Let's Take Another Stab At It......

The week was winding down, and decided to try once again to get Antonio to propose to Dora.  Off to the bowling alley they went on a date.  Gossip, joke...fulfilling wishes.

Antonio threw wish to bowl with Dora...it was done.  Wanted to play/tickle...ect.  It was done.  Wanted to WooHoo in car...it was done.  

The date dragged on and on...Antonio never threw get engaged/married.  He wanted to do the above things.  The ship has sailed on this "ship".  Pfft.

No sooner Antonio stepped in the front door after his bowling date, then the phone rang.  It was an invitation to go out.  With Dora's family.  Minus DORA.  What tom foolery is this????

ASimWen reckons Dora's family wanted to check out this man mom/granny has been woohooing.  Antonio was extremely cordial, and he passed the test.

Peter brought over a tree to show Antonio he was an alright guy, and the could keep dating his mom.  APPROVED.

At this point ASimWen visited the unplayed home of the Ottomas.  Stuck a Sim Blender in it and found that Samantha is pregnant with twins.  Hmmmm.  Feel like playing that house now.  It would be a nice challenge.  Big house, little money.  Anyways...

Meet Tybalt and Beatrice's son....  Eglamour.  This name comes from the Shakespearian play, The Two Gentlemen of Verona.  He has has dad's skintone, and the rest is all Beatrice.

Tybalt and Antonio were ecstatic....wonderful to have a little boy in the family.  This will be the the last child for Ty and Bea, as she is only a few days from elderhood.  Two.  Two kids is enough.

And that is it for this visit with the Monty/Capps.

Summary

Antonio - Antonio never married again after Hero Monty Beatrice and Benedick's mom, passed away when they were young.  It wasn't for ASimWen not trying!  Antonio is 78 years young with only a sliver of life left.  He will pass next round.  Perm plat.

Tybalt - is half way through his elderhood, being 63.  He has never held a job, having spent his teen and adult years making friends with pets and then finally marrying the love of his life, Beatrice Monty.  Perm plat. 

Beatrice - is perm plat as well, and will age up to sexy senior next round.  She like to thought that she would ever marry Elvira's dad, let alone have a second child.

Ending Wishes for Elvira:

Grow up well, get A+, play with Haya Monty, and jump rope.  Elvira will age up next round, two days in, only one day in if early cake up is taken.  She was easy-peasy to keep happy only wanting to play with doggo Haya, jump rope, and do things like jump on bed.  She threw constant wishes to torment someone, but being there was no children eligible for that, well, she will just have to wait until Eglamour ages up to toddler. 

This was a fun and action packed round.  Things started out slow watching Antonio limp along in his relationship with Dora Ottomas, and a couple of the pet rescues having Grim parties.  I have to admit after that point, I took a couple of days off from playing wondering how to proceed.  Then I decided to try to get some marriage proposals to occur.  

In between the constant invites out for Tybalt, Ty and Bea finally was able to tie the knot, but only after Ty got Bea pregnant again.  Yes, she was pregnant at her wedding.  The wedding was a blast, having the wedding mat has rewritten weddings in TS2 for ASimWen.  I love it.  I love to see who is going to be the attendants which are chosen by the MOD, so lots of Sims are always invited to the party.  

Next was trying to get Antonio to propose to Dora.  He dated her probably 5 or 6 times, and he staunchly refused to propose, preferring to remain a bachelor.  Sorry good sir, you had your chance.  You will not have a choice next round when you meet Grim.

And that is it, remember to get your pet spayed or neutered!  Next up:  Benedick Monty and Ariel (Capp!)
