Last week, Nolan, Moses and Gwyneth were trying to get used to a life without their ex wife and mom Marieke. Gwyneth bought her first community lot and got a crush on a girl named Felicia. Nolan became an elder.
Nolan topped his Law career! It wasn’t his LTW, as he already fulfilled that, but it was still a nice achievement.
Gwyneth and Nolan were living a quiet, easy life together. It wasn’t very interesting.
Their elderly dog Rocky was adorable as ever. I was afraid he would pass away this rotation.
Sometimes, Moses stopped by. It looked a little strange that he already was an adult and his twin sister wasn’t, but that was because of him going to uni and already been played this rotation.
As Nolan was being kind of depressed, I figured he could use some love. He had enough money so he called the gypsy matchmaker to see what she had in store for him.
His match was a townie named Elizabeth. She was a little young for him, and a Romance Sim, but they had two bolts and I felt like Nolan deserved a little fun.
Gwyneth, who came home from school, didn’t like what she saw.
I didn’t particularly like Elizabeth, mostly because she was a Romance Sim and Nolan deserved better after his failed marriage with Marieke. I did feel like Nolan deserved love again though. I let him have some fun with Elizabeth and decided he would have another blind date later.
Elizabeth left a nice bouquet of roses though.
Nolan’s second date was quite… special. But nothing that couldn’t be fixed with a little VamprocillinD. He and Sabine had also quite an age gap and two bolts, just like Nolan and Elizabeth. Sabine was a Pleasure Sim, which suited Nolan better.
I actually liked Sabine. Not only did they roll love related wants, they also just wanted to have fun together - so they did. I felt like she might be a good match for Nolan.
Just as I wanted to move Sabine in, she decided to bite Nolan. Dammit Sabine. So, another call to the matchmaker it was.
Sabine moved in (with over 50,000 Simoleons!) and they cured their vampirism together, as I really don’t like playing vampires. Sadly, Sabine seemed bugged - even though I cured her from vampirism she kept walking weirdly and freezing my game. So, still no love for Nolan. I cheated Sabine away (and also took her money, as it didn’t feel fair to keep it).
So, I didn’t take pictures but I sent Nolan to one of his businesses, as he might find some love there. He met Christine there and they really hit it off.
Eventually, she moved in with Nolan and Gwyneth. Christine is a Fortune/Family Sim with the LTW to have 6 pets reach their top career level. Her Ideal Family Size is 2 (so that’s some work to do for Nolan, lol). She was at level 7 of the Criminal career but had to quit as there wasn’t an open position there.
Nolan and Christine immediately started working on that IFS of 2, lol. To be honest, I was looking for some nice elderly lady to accompany Nolan in his elder days, not for a young woman who wanted children and stuff. But Nolan didn’t complain - so me neither.
Christine got a new job in the Business career, at level 2.
Aww, Rocky! He was such a good dog. He will definitely be missed. Bye little guy! I also noticed the family portraits were still on the wall. I put them in Gwyneth’s inventory to keep, just as the wedding portrait in the master bedroom.
Gwyneth invited her crush Felicia over. Their shared their first kiss. I’m really in doubt whether I should let Gwyneth inherit te house (and Christine move out when Nolan passes), or Christine (and probably their future children) should stay in the house and Gwyneth should move out when she grows up.
Well that was fast.
As the family was devastated by the loss of Rocky, they adopted a new dog. Meet Reggie.
Nolan proposed to Christine. Look how happy he was! Finally he might be getting his happily ever after.
Pop!
Birthday time for Gwyneth! Of course, Felicia aged up with her.
No time to be wasted: Felicia moved in. She’s a Knowledge/Pleasure Sim with the LTW to become Mad Scientist. Her ideal family size is 5 and I was surprised to see she’s at level 6 of the Medical career.
She ditched her job in Medical right away to start a career in Science. She could start at level 2.
Ah, breakfast… The most appropriate time for a proposal.
Gwyneth bought a virtual business. As this was the 50th business in Crimson Falls, it means +1 for the Sim Multiplier. This meant the population went up from 14,413 (21,655 including CAS points) to 14,616 (22,032).
Gwyneth was present at the birth of her new sibling. It was a strange thing, becoming a big sister while she was an adult already.
Nolan came home just moments too late to watch Lucinda being born. He immediately was over the moon to have a baby daughter though. Lucinda has her mom’s last name (Hendriks) as they aren’t married.
Now that her dad had a new wife and a new baby, Gwyneth decided it was time for her and Felicia to move out. She had saved quite a big amount of money so she was sure able to buy a nice new house for her and her fiancée.
