tigeranne | The Scheiler Saga: The Missing Years

Hiiiiiiiii! This is yoour Narrator speaking. Or typing, if we're technic about stuff. TigerAnne is busy discriminating her Sims in favour of more real-looking and obedient pixel people, so I - the Narrator - has taken justice intoo my own hands. Now let's all have a last-time paragraph:

Last time, Moxie Leatriz for real cheated on Matias, with her ex Rudy, who's Sinjin's identical cousin and dresses just the same as him. Matias totally saw them KISS in the garden, and he didn't even notice!?! But Rudy got mad because Moxie cheated on him by holding hands with Matias, so now they're not best friends anymore, and he steals their newspaper.

Nettie gave birth to another baby (but she has enoough of them now). They named him Moriarty. He's kinda cute, and has the exact same difficult personality as Henway. Who totally digs the kid, BTW. Orbin was sort of ignored in the background, and entered puberty with Romance aspiration. Oh, and Chandler hasn't been around lately, so most of the kids will probably grow up before he ruins their childhood forever by becoming their step-dad.

Over at the Orchard, a very clingy and needy plant fell in love with the kids' classmate Amanda. Oh, and Bruno is an adult now.

Henway saw a lot of potential in his smallest sibling, and he hopoed that he could take him with him to raise as his own, and that the Heirs would settle for only having Orbin as their minion. But there were two Heirs, and Friday declared that they should have a *good* minion each.

BTW, FarmVille: Give my dragon back its head right now!

Nettie made Smart-Milk so she coould teach Moriarty too become the genius he was named as. The original Moriarty (or atleast the oone ono the Benedict Cucumberpatch version) managed to infuse himself into the internet after he was dead, and almost started ruling the world. That's pretty smart.

Nettie: Oiii, who took the baby??? I can't feed him when I can't find him. YOU WANT HIM TO STARVE TO DEATH???????

Moriarty: Mooooomyyy....! D:

Nettie's got attention and focus problems, because she's been in the party scene for too loong.

Um, isn't he under water, in Atlantis? It's not like people on land will find out. And his wife has done enough running around naked in her job as it is.

I don't think she got paid that much for it, either.

Nettie: Say "gnomes rule."

Moriarty: Nuuuuuuu!

Everyone was happy whenever there was a rain shower, because it was so hot it was unbearable. They didn't even get wet, because their clothes were drying immediately from the heat while it was still raining. O_O

The remote-controlled car is waterproof.

Moriarty: I wanna be a pilot when I grow up. :D

Nettie: That's so cute! I hope you're gonna have a big, cool ship, because I've only ever pirated music and movies.

Moriarty: No, a pilot!

Nettie: Yeah, a pirate!

Moriarty: A PILOT!!!

Nettie: Keep trying, you'll get it right some day. :) And always know that Dad and me can understand you.

Henway: Yass I'm home from the laboor camp!

Tippy: I love picking veggies in my pajamas!

Oh look! Amanda must have rehomed the plant.

And here's Rudy stealing the newspaper. *sigh* They should probably get a sentry-bot to shoot zapper rays at him, but the whole problem may actually be solved a different way. Things are gonna be changing a bit, around here...

The kids were cheering themselves up by dancing the smustle. There was so much happiness in the room, that here are a lot of pictures of it.

Orbin: LOL, we're jumping together hurrr hurr.

I bet Liranda was happy when Friday mailed her the pictures of young people rejoycing and existing in harmony.

Nettie: Oh noz I got fat!? How did that happen, I was sooo skinny??? I gotta get it off before I go to work partying this weekend!

Imagine getting paid for partying. It would have been a perfect job for Jolene, LOL! But we'd rather not see her nekkid photos in the rag-mags, thank you.

Matias was trying to scare the trash coompactor into submission, before he started repairing it.

Tessie: Hi, Grandma. What's up?

Tippy: IT IS ALL SO HORRIBLE I CAN'T EVEN!

The sprinklers were broken, and that was completely ruining her life. I think Tippy's been under too much pressure, lately.

Henway: WHO IS IT WHO KICKS OVER THE TRASH CAN ALL THE TIME??????

Moxie: I think you're the only one who's in Aspiration failure?

Henway: It's gotta be Orbin. Let me knoow if you catch him red-handed, okay?

Tippy: I CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN'T!

Henway: I CAN'T EITHER!!! I'VE LOST MY ABILITY TO CAN!!!

Amanda: Maybe yooou should get some pills for that?

Henway: You're really nice, giving people suggestions and trying to help. Do youo want to join our community as an ally?

Amanda: Yeah, probably.

I can't repeat what he said to her, because there may be children reading this by accident. Henway's not so good with flirting.

BTW, I've installed a lighting mod, that makes everything prettier. That's why the light is sort of orange, because the sun is going down!

Their neighbourhood actually looks kinda pretty in the sunset.

Nettie: HUBBA HUBBA! *drool*

Friday: I'm your father-figure, Nettie. Such expressions are very inappropriate.

Moriarty: MOOOOOOOMYYYY my fingers are stuuuuck!

Tippy: Mommy's getting slim again so she can party in skimpy clothes with z-list celebrities. I'm gonna help you instead, sweetheart.

Out in the garden the Smustle started again. Paloma was over visiting, that's her in a suit. And Michelle, as usual, since she's an honorary member of the Community.

Amanda: I'm not gonna join!

Homework party is the worst kinda party, but at least your mother usually isn't running around naked in one. I can't imagine how embarrassed the kids must be every time Nettie shows up in a picture with lots of drunk groupies and drug-dealers.

And here's Rudy just standing outside of their hooouse at night like a creeper! >:C

Friday was supposed to get a bottle for Moriarty, who was starving to death, but the sight of the tea-kettle brought his mind on a long, winding journey of contemplation of existential matters. I think Friday's under too much pressure, too. Not only does he have to head a Kult, and be everyone's daddy all the time, but he's also The Law and decides right and wrong for (some parts of) humanity.

He needs someone to help him share his burdens.

Moriarty was capable of hunting his own food, though.

Orbin started hanging out with the older kids a bit more now that he was their size. Nettie liked blogging about her life, like sort-of-famous people do all the time, and she wanted to give the impression that she was very involved in her children's lives during the weeks, when she wasn't partying.

I think Manola and Henway really are best friends, I haven't checked. It wouldn't surprise me if they got married and started dating, but I don't think their families would like that since they're related.

Look, here's a nice picture of Manola, like TigerAnne takes of her lifeless mannequins!

THe radio-tower behind the house (they use it for transmitting podcasts to their dispatched Community members wolrd-wide) is so tall it disappears in the clouds.

Leona thought Butch looked really hot in his diving suit, and she was right. He was just abuot melting.

BTW, they hung up some wisteria on the wall over the door. I thought I had taken a picture of how nice it looks, but I don't think I have.

I think Tippy needs to call Marisol about her rude children again.

Mattias: If youo want to find eternal happiness, you need to pursue your dreams, and do things that are meaningful to you. Don't just do what other people expect you to, because I have bad experiences with that. My parents never call anymore, because they never wanted a chef in the family.

MAnola: Wow...

Nettie: Matias is very deep and philosophical and intelligent.

Look, they're an actual community having supper together! Their goal is almost a success! Matias is still really good at taking care of the children.

Henway followed his dream of being an awesome musician, and he finally maxed his skill. He needed the points, because he was in very low Aspiration (Being a Fortune Sim in a commune is kinda rough), and was growing up really soon.

Orbin passed out sleeping in the bathroom, on his feet, with water spraying all over him.

Birthday time!

Henway didn't get a dweeb outfit. He got a nice red shirt, which made him look kind of businessmanlike. (But nothing like Turnip, and that's probably good!)

Oh no! Red shirt is very bad!!! D:

Moriarty was old enough to Birthday too.

Juanita and Ilvany came to the party. Everyone lined up in a nice half-circle around the Birthday kid, except Friday who was taking pictures to send to the Great-grandparents. Ilvany's not booing, she's actually cheering, I think.

Moriarty grew up dark and gangsta, and was really happy.

Phil often went to visit his Grandson and descendants at the Orchard. Oh and you can see that Bruno has gotten a make-over. "Bruno" means "brown," so he got a brown shirt. Um, that sounded Nazi. He's not!

Yeah, I cut Phil's legs out of the frame, because I wanted more of the trees and surroundings instead. I'm not a pro photographer, okay???

Oopos we need cat pictures, because there was almost noone in the last chapter. Silver and Nernia are friends again. They were playing on the balcony (where Manola studies Peter Ottomas) all night long.

Sasha was sleeping soundly in a sunchair, right outside Carlos' house.

I think maybe Manola has Aspiration failure. :O She's the next one who will become adult. I want her to grow up happily, because she'll be moving out with Bruno soon.

Lorena keeps having Aspiration failures galore, because she's not got any babies in sight for some time yet.

She always rolls tiny little wants abuot catching bugs and talking about kite-flying and that sort. :(

Paloma has also joined the Law career noow. :D They're a very Lawfully Good famioly.

Pernicity hates one or more of them, for some reason. IDGI. Have they ever even talked to her?

The Orchard looks so beautiful and homely in the golden sunset. <3

On peaceful evenings like this, life is exactly as it should be.

Paloma: Have you got a major spy-crisis to report, because I think mabe he's asleep?

This is an artistic picture. It's called "Cats' Secret Social Lives." It uses a minimalistic colour palette, and high contrast between lights and shadows in a post-modern expression.

Peter: I don't care if it is for science, my life-cycle and reproduction is not your school project!

Manola: This is noot abut your feelings, it's abuot whether or not your abnoormal beahvior is harmful to yoour surroundings. And one of my teaxhers is wrting a PhD in psychologuy with me as the subject, becayse you flashed me when I was 14 and was studyng the stars for Advanced Physics class. So yeah!

Ugly Peter: And yet you keep coming back for more!

Manola: It's part of my educational therapy! You're a dirty pig, and now I want you out of my home! OUT OUT OUUUTTT!

Studs: I'm so happy to see you standing up to him!

Marisol: Have you been to school today, Tessie? I thought you were up all night.

Tessie: LOL yeah, I slept in class! It wasn't very comfortable...

Oh dude... That's

raemia's Parvati. She's almost as aggro as Georgia. Tessie, you're in danger now!

But instead of fightng tooth and nail, they just dished it out in basketball.

Here's their neighbourhood, just for the record. You probably recognise the Orchard and Compound of Love and Peace. Then there's the Athertons' house, and the one where Raelynn and MK'la live with their family.

I dunnoo how Silver can dream of squirls, when she's never even seen one in her life?

Marylena must have nt gotten her newspaper this morning, because I'm pretty sure that if she had it, there would have been the exactly same news in hers.

Studs: I feel very portly in this suit! :C

This picture is called "Outline of a Cat." It exemplifies the usage of simple shapes and randomness of elements, to convey a profound message - that cats bring out the best in us. Unless you're evil and hurt cats. But then there was nothing good in you in the first place, and you should be shot.

Hang in there, girls. Only a few more homeworks to suffer through...

Phl tends to be a backseat driver when other people play video games. It's kind of annoying.

PINGO LIVES!

Tesse was explanng t everyne hw she always learned better whle she was sleepng. Because hearing can stll be turned n while your'e unconscioous, and then instead of gettins stressed and your brain mixing everything up and forgetting everything immediately, your subconsciousness, which is youor sensible self, just saves everything to disc and then you suddenly know stuff when you need it.
