Hi Kent, Bianca, and family! This lot was last played May 27th, 2017. Luckily, past ASimWen had left notes on this lot of a couple of goals that she was playing toward back then. We'll see!
Kent Capp
Knowledge / Romance - Become Chief of Staff |
Bianca (Monty) Capp
Family / Romance - Wants To Raise 20 Puppies or Kittens |
Avery Capp - Twin to Erlina
Pleasure - Become A Celebrity Chef |
Erlina Capp
Fortune - Become Head of SCIA |
Zena Capp
Grow Up |
The Breeding Pair
Maxis doggo Cleo is laying outside the dog house, and Lawrence Monty is daddy doggo.
So what happened last round? There was birthdays to be had all around as the twins aged up from child to teens, Zena aged up from infant all the way to child, and, mom and dad aged up to elder. A third story was built onto the house to accomodate career rewards, and a second bathroom. There is room for a third bedroom there but has not been utilized. Avery realized his interest in music and dance by gaining admittance into the My Muse Club. Two cats who were breeding were given up to animal control as they were not getting along and the dogs brought in. And the children were all admitted into Private School.
LET'S PLAY!
Hi Tyablt Capp! Kent called his buddy Tybalt over for a visit then the car pool came for him right away for work. Ty was made Selectable and he set out to make friends with Cleo. (maybe a little cheaty, but who is going to tell). Once the daily was at 75, he was sent on his way.
Avery sat down to get a skill point when he arrived home from school. This in turn spun up blog about music, play the piano, ect. He also spun up Uni. Maybe he will go.
Little Zena wanted to talk to her big brother about hobbies when she came home from school, a wish that matched the same for Avery. It was a no brainer!
However he refused her to "play" red hands...and she then blew up needing fun. Where is the sweet Zena???
Erlina spent some time talking on the phone with Aelita Summerdream when she came home from school, then outside to praise Cleo, got her started on her wishes for the day.
New LTW - WooHoo 20 Different Sims (no) |
Now Bianca had a very difficult time this day, none of her wishes were fulfilled. As when the lot opened, she was in the energizer and was in red aspiration so she nearly died. Not sure what caused this, ASim checked her memories and there was nothing debilitating that occurred since the lot was played last. No clue why she was in red aspiration.
By 10 pm she had recovered enough that her wish to woohoo could be fulfilled, and she felt a whole lot better.
By 1am on Tuesday, Bianca was outside bird watching and fulfilling nature wishes. She also trimmed up her hair to something more viable for a refined lady her age.
It is a snow day for the kids, so Zena seized the opportunity to call cousin Aubrey to come over. Aubrey recently graduated from University and has moved into his own place. We will see him in his new apartment this round.
Hi Aubrey! |
Soon after Aubrey arrived, puppies were born. Which was really strange, because the dogs had only tried for puppies four hours before. ???? Two more for Bianca's LTW. By error ASimWen directed Erlina to have the pups picked up by Animal Control...and later adopted Mavis back. As soon as she grows up and leaves, then Iggy will be adopted back. When Kent came home from work he had the dogs try again, and they were successful. *is something wrong with the pregnancy controller on this lot*
Erlina then had a few minutes with cousin Aubrey, talking about her hobbies. Erlina also mentioned that she was going to go to University, and wondered if Aubrey had any helpful advice? They had a nice long chat.
Bianca is finally feeling like her old self again and will be able to go back to work on her next scheduled day.
Avery made spaghetti for dinner that night. Everyone is is transfixed on Zena as she talks about arts and crafts.
Avery and Gwyneth headed inside the lodge to dance and drink coffee.
First Kiss |
It wasn't long before the lodge became over crowded and Avery and Gwenyth mutually agreed to end the date. It was a good time. These two have a one bolt attraction.
Gwenyth brought Avery a date present of wine. Er, you are too young to drink...where did you get that, missy?? Anyway it was stashed in Avery's backpack to take to University. Yes, both he and Erlina have the want and it almost nearly never spins away. They will be going.
Speaking of wishes, Erlina keeps that both of the dogs will get jobs, and that she will make $3,000. So she got an after school job in Journalism whereas she might meet the wish before she goes to Uni. She has been extremely difficult and ASimWen actually considered going ahead and moving her out of the house, but decided to try to work on the 3K wish.
This aspiring celebrity chef jumped in and made lunch for all the students at school thinking that he was doing a good thing.
You should have planned better, Avery!!!
Well Avery wasn't home long from his date with Gwyneth when she asked him right back out. This time they went somewhere less likely to get crowded, and that was Lucky Shack Cards and Drink. Once inside, they sang kareoke, then Avery invited Gwyneth back to his house, where he told her goodbye. It was a dream date.
11:30 that night, ASim remembered it was Zena's cake up day.
Fortune - Become A Hall of Famer |
Off to Sims Gone Wired where Zena could get her phone, and Avery could fulfill a wish to play a computer game. I'd say that's a win-win!
Then it was coffee and movie time.
See Juliette there twisting her head around backwards to talk to the bowling chick, then there is Spencer Monty coming up on the right to watch TV also. It was quickly getting crowded.
Back home Bianca had rolled a wish to Ask A Sim on a Date, as it was now Spring time. Go you, Bianca and Kent!
Erlina was doing very well with her new job, she promoted up to Blog Writer her first day at work and hit the $3,000 mark fulfilling a long held wish. Hopefully she will promote again so she can win the Young Entrepreneurs Award scholarship for University. A quick hit on the energizer before going to her last day in high school, so she would be nice and rested for work that afternoon!
And yes! She achieves TOC teen job in journalism! New scholarship to be had, worth $750!!
Now to work on the Extraterrestrial Reparation Grant.
Well the first night stargazing did not net an abduction, but Erlina did get a membership to Aspirational Laboratories Cool.
It was Saturday by now, and Bianca had to go to work. Avery had stayed up all night chatting it up with Zena talking about the great trip out to Sims Gone Wired. Those two area getting close. Avery packed it off to bed at daybreak.
Zena was feeling a little tired and hungry, but jumped at the chance to go out when Erlina suggested it. Off to the grocery store they went.
Zena had a bite to eat at the lunch counter, then headed over to the soda machine. She also rolled "Ask Sim On Date" but knows no one, so it was locked in to do when she returned home. Erlina found her good friend Aelita Summerdream, and they had a great time chatting. In the background there is Jihoon LeTourneau. Erlina approached him for "friendly conversation" but gave him a noogie instead *shame* and now they have a negative relationship.
However, this trip shook up Erlina's wishes to get Logic 9, so that was locked in. She still holds a wish to go to University, and Zena is starting to carry that wish too!
Back home, Zena called the matchmaker to order up a date. Andrea Dalton the matchmaker brought Zena Justice Bruenig, the paperboy. I wonder if Marcia Bruenig is his sister??? At anyrate, this did not satisfy Zena's wish to date since the matchmaker put them on a date. It was like pulling sharks teeth to get these two to get along despite the two bolt attraction. He would not dance with her, would not kiss. So the date was ended, and started again, fulfilling Zena's wish. She then did manage to get in five wishes, and the date was ended. Justice couldn't get out of there fast enough.
But before Zena bid Justice goodbye, Avery called up Gwyneth for a date to realize his wish to ask a Sim on a date. Five dates in....goodbye Gwyneth...then Avery wanted to learn Lifelong Happiness, and hit the books.
Mavis the doggo aged up to be a very pretty dog. Kent called for animal control to come and get her, and then called for Iggy to be adopted as mentioned earlier.
Avery succeeded in learning the secret to lifetime happiness, much to Zena's amazement. Erlina in the meantime was on the telescope hoping to get abducted, and maxed out logic fulfilling a HUGE wish for her.
It is Sunday, and there was no abduction for Erlina. Bianca had spun up 100% nature wishes, and invited Avery to go on a hike with her. He was like yah sure I will go with you mom. Back home again being chased by bees. OH NO. haha Townie Sandy Fairchild is just standing there thinking how she is glad it is Bianca getting stung and not her.
Zena had a wish to ask a Sim on a date...and Justice fit the bill. They shared First Kiss, which did not fulfill the First Kiss wish that was showing for Justice. 5 wishes for Zena.
At 6 pm Erlina called out for her scholarships.
Nice! |
Ho-Hum |
And this is where we leave the Capps for this round. One thing you may be thinking. At the beginning of this entry I stated that past ASimWen had left directions for goals for present ASimWen to accomplish. Where they realized? YES. 1. Get dogs pregnant and 2. Send Erlina to University.
Ending wishes:
Erlina and Avery were both showing "Go to University" so that will be realized when they land at school.
Bianca - Bianca is now 67 years old, and is not amassing aspiration points at a fast rate. Hopefully she will not live well into her 90s. Her ending wishes are go hiking, go birdwatching, ask sim on date, and hunt bugs.
Zena - Earn some money, Ask Sim on a Date, get a hand held game (no), and go to Uni. I do not feel that Justice is a good fit for her, so she will be looking for a new guy.
And of course Kent is perm plat. He is now 61 years old, and hard telling how long HE will live.
Now an announcement.
Erlina spied this beautiful elder Sim when she went to the grocery store. This is Ms. Oldster. She recently opened a new retirement home in Veronaville, and has already sold all the rooms in her house to elder Sims. You will meet her again when that lot is played!
And that is it! Have a great time Simming....but family comes first! Always!
Next - Cornwall and Regan Capp!

Bianca and Kent are sweet! I loved Zena's outfit as a child but was a bit confused about her walking around in that "medieval lady" outfit later on. Well, I suppose that's teenagers and their fashion for you :-)
ReplyDeleteIt will be interesting to see your Senior Home!
I get a lot of sims walking around in this medieval coats. Yea, that is her outer ware. Avery has his hobby plaque in Music and dance so when he would sit to play piano he would switch to his formal ware. Guess what it was. Yup. The medieval coat. I can’t remember where I got those but I wish the game would stop choosing them so often.
DeletePS. I found out where those medieval coats came from. They are from the now defunct TS2 Store. I didn’t get them from there but downloaded them from somewhere else. I have a special folder in Downloads making them easy to find. They have been unceremoniously deleted. Heh
DeleteA nice round for this family. I loved Zena's outfit as a child, it was so cute on her. The kids are all doing really well so far. Interesting about the dogs pregnancy early on, but it seems like maybe it's sorted itself out? Interesting with the retirement home. I really should set up something like that in some of my hoods. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have a few little bugs on this lot, maybe a house change next round will help. Didn't look like it affected gameplay much though, lots of sims and puppies! Love all the Capp's and their weird, wonderful ways. :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to reading about Mrs Oldster! I have Librarian's 'Senior Residence' lot in my game, just waiting on the first sim to move in!
