jayeless_archive: Britta Cooper, my generation 3 heir in my Sims 4 legacy, looks aghast (coopers)
[personal profile] jayeless_archive posting in [community profile] jayeless_sims

Mission “create a big buffer for November” is going well… I’ve now played partway through update 5.7. Pretty sure this generation is going to have way more updates than any of the previous ones, especially considering how many only cover 2–3 days!

Anyway, enjoy!

Last time: I only got through two days. Billie was pregnant! Ella and Josh went out on the town to look for love. Josh kissed some random unpleasant lady at the park and his girlfriend’s sister. Ella yelled at some people, then met the intriguing Joaquin le Chien. The next day Joaquin agreed to be her boyfriend. India and Delta became children. Josh met his mum’s clone, the Fake Morgan Fyres, and seduced her. We continue…

The Coopers 5.4

Delta pouts as she writes in her diary; Britta smiles as she eats

Because Delta is an emo Gloomy, she constantly has whims to write in her journal. Britta is completely unfazed by her five-year-old grandchild’s depression.

Weird Science: In lab, India’s science experiment exploded and made a big mess, along with frightening another student. We think she did it on purpose. [Academic punishment seems right.]

I think she did this on purpose, too.

Claire faces Josh, grimacing, as Ella laughs behind her

Claire was not keen on Ella jeering at her, and appealed to Josh, her only nice grandchild, to make her cut it out.

Baby Born: Hello Josh, Elsa here! I wanted to let you know that I just had twins! Kelly and Beau are doing well!

JOSH IS A DADDY!

Unfortunately, he is, uh… pretty busy over the next couple of days and won’t be able to check in on his sproglings for a while.

Josh whispers into Billie’s ear as they sit on his bed; Billie giggles; Britta types away on a computer behind them

Oh, what is this? I specifically send them into a private room to canoodle, and Britta manages to be there to witness it anyway. smh

Britta stands and grins as Josh and Billie make out

Britta: Hmm… my son making out with his brother’s wife? This is fine :D

Josh faces an unimpressed-looking Anaya Jang

I was wondering why Ella suddenly had “Rude Introduction” pop up in her queue, and it was because Billie’s mum paid an unannounced visit!

She might look unimpressed with Josh, but actually he got their relationship to like, 40% nearly instantly with a Polite Introduction.

Josh, Anaya and Billie chat amiably

Anaya: Goodness, Billie, why haven’t you introduced me to your husband before? He’s such a charming young man!
Billie: Erm… yeah Mum… just so charming, that’s my husband alright.

Josh listens to Billie’s belly as Anaya looks on

Anaya: If only you could’ve brought him to our apartment in San Myshuno to introduce us before your father passed away…
Billie: *pretends not to hear*

Billie has an Uncomfortable moodlet: Jealous Pangs

Billie got this moodlet from Josh talking to her mum. LOL

Billie stands at a bassinette, groaning in pain

Then, STOP!! It’s baby time!

Josh panics in the kitchen

Because Arnold is being his usual absentee self again working hard at his job, Josh takes on the responsibility of the pre-parental panic.

Billie cuddles a baby in her bedroom

TWINS AGAIN!

a baby smiles cheerfully in a crib in the hallway

This one is Oscar.

a baby sleeps in a crib in Billie and Arnold’s room

And this is Sierra.

India and Delta make a mess in the kitchen

India and Delta make their feelings on this unwelcome development known by trashing the kitchen.

Delta scowls in rage as Billie tells her off

India managed to abscond before Billie could get there, so Delta was the one who copped all of the discipline. As you can see, she had strong feelings about this injustice.

Select a Branch for Ella Cooper: Comedian

Ella’s been promoted to Jokesmith!

Ella and Joaquin embrace in front of the Rattlesnake Juice

Joaquin invited Ella out for drinks to celebrate her promotion, and she enthusiastically accepted.

Ella, Joaquin, and some random woman sit on a three-seater couch inside the Rattlesnake Juice

Because Joaquin is a complete dunderhead though, he also invited this lady to tag along as a third wheel. Like, wtf man. Ella doesn’t even know this person.

Ella and Joaquin cuddle on a bench outside, while third-wheel lady walks around them, smiling, with a drink in her hand

Ella and Joaquin (autonomously!) decided to take their canoodling to this bench outside. However, they were followed…

Ella and Joaquin kiss near an external wall

Then they decided to take themselves to this little courtyard, but do you see that top of a Sim’s head on the other side of the wall? She followed them there too.

Pregnancy Start: Started Pregnancy for Alison Maier with Travis Scott.

Then literally the second they managed to lose her, she got knocked up by some guy from Willow Creek.

Ella and Joaquin cuddle on an indoors couch

At least, with Alison busy doing that, Ella and Joaquin were able to canoodle in peace.

Ella tickles Joaquin

She tickled him too, because remember, she is EVIL!

Ella proposes to Joaquin

Ella is so overcome with emotion that she drops to one knee and asks Joaquin to be her man for life.

Ella has a whim to WooHoo with Someone

She then rolled a whim to get a lil’ bit frisky to celebrate…

Joaquin walks out in an exhausted way as Ella waves him goodbye

Joaquin, however, left her high and dry.

Josh and Arnold banter at the kitchen island

Just a bit of friendly, competitive banter over breakfast. Unfortunately, Josh is the only one who realises they’re in a competition.

in the kitchen, Ella (in a fancy black gown with cut-out sections on the bodice) talks on the phone

The next morning, a rather well-dressed Ella invites Joaquin over!

Ella sits on the couch, laughing maniacally

Then laughs maniacally about her EVIL PLAN!

Unfortunately, Joaquin is a dirty liar who said he’d come over then never did.

Ella sits on the couch talking on the phone

Ella: Yo, what the fuck dude? Are you coming?
Joaquin: Oh yeah! I’ll be right there!

He wasn’t.

Joaquin texts Ella: Congratulations on getting that big promotion at work! You deserved it!

WHY ARE YOU SENDING HER THIS TEXT INSTEAD OF ACTUALLY TURNING UP, JOAQUIN

??????

Ella, Joaquin and Josh stand around at Magnolia Blossom Park

He did at least bother showing up when Ella invited him to the park… with Josh in tow, for reasons. Those reasons being mainly that for his next promotion he needs to “Shout Out” from a bunch of different places, but then I forgot to have him do that.

under a wedding arch, Ella laughs at Joaquin

Ella: Haha, SUCKAAAAA!! You’re bound to me for life now!

Joaquin admires his new ring; Ella smiles with her hands over her heart

It was a beautiful wedding.

Josh smiles awkwardly as Ella and Joaquin kiss under the wedding arch

Not quite Josh’s scene, but… he pretended to care for Ella’s sake.

Jade texts Josh: Let’s go out and have some fun! Park: Desert Bloom

Then, like, the SECOND the ceremony was done he ditched it like a hot potato because he got a better offer.

Jade Rosa and Josh kiss at the front of the Desert Bloom Park

Jade was certainly eager to get re-acquanted.

in the Desert Bloom public toilets, Jade gets yelled at by an Insane Sim

Unfortunately, the social event got cancelled when Jade went to the toilet and this crazy guy started screaming at her. smh

Josh and Jade stand in Windenburg’s New Town

Anxious to keep their afternoon reunion going, Josh invited Jade out on a date in Windenburg.

Josh tells Jade about cop cars

He told her some extravagant lies about being a bad boy on the run from the cops…

Jade swoons at the sight of Josh

…which Jade seemed to find rather seductive.

Jade just became the girlfriend of Josh

I literally JUST found out that you can have more than one girlfriend at a time in this game… so, Josh now has two!

Jade tells Josh about heartbreak

Jade: Damn boy, my husband’ll be so heartbroken if he finds out about you.
Josh: So let’s make sure he doesn’t find out ;)

Date Complete! Gold medal earned!

Just FYI, Josh needs two more of these as well as six more girlfriends to achieve his aspiration.

Josh and Britta type on their phones outside the Cooper residence

Just after getting home, Josh rolled the whim to Send a Flirty Text, so he did, to his good old friend, Candy Behr. Britta then sent a random-ass text to nobody just so as not to feel left out.

Candy texts Josh: I see you’re in a good mood. Maybe we should head out and grab a drink!

Let the good times roll!

Candy stands around grouchily, thinking about toddler blocks, as Josh types on his phone

This is the only picture I got to prove Candy turned up at all… she disappeared after like half a second!

?!?!?

Josh talks on the phone

Josh: Hi Candy. What the fuck?

Candy Behr will be right over!

She did not show.

Josh talks on the phone, again

Josh: Excuse me Candy, I am trying to ask you out on a date. Are you going to show?
Candy: Sure!

(Spoiler: no.)

Date Unsuccessful: No Reward Earned

what the actual fuck is your problem, Candy

Josh types on his phone inside the bar

Josh (texting): You’re a bitch, Candy :)

Candy texts Josh: I see you’re in a good mood. Maybe we should head out and grab a drink!

OK CANDY YOU GET ONE MORE CHANCE

Josh rubs his belly, alone and upset, in front of a lounge in Oasis Springs

SHE APPEARED FOR ONE SECOND AND DISAPPEARED AGAIN

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Josh propositions Billie in the kitchen at home

Luckily, there’s someone waiting at home who’ll be happy to accept his advances.

Billie and Josh jump into Josh’s bed

At least, for so long as her husband is out at work.

Morgan cringes in horror at the sight of the doona in Josh’s bedroom being a-thumping with love hearts coming out of it

Protip for Morgan: Don’t do that.

Elsa Bjergsen is wondering if I want to go over to her house and hang out.

Well, uhmmmmmm, probably not, like, right this second…

why the fuck is Josh even answering his phone while literally being in the middle of banging Billie

Ella yells at Britta; Britta raises an eyebrow at her

Meanwhile, Ella is yelling at her mum for no reason. Today Britta is Not Having It.

Billie has a whim to Ask Someone to Go Steady

I took this as a sign.

Billie and Josh grin and flap their arms excitedly, wide-eyed

Billie: So, uhm, I know I’m married to your brother and all, and I don’t really know what you do with your life, but… do you want to be my boyfriend?
Josh: omg! yes!

And thus, he now has three girlfriends.

Josh and Billie lie, fast asleep, in Josh’s bed

Obviously Arnold did come home from work that night, but when Billie autonomously put herself to sleep, it was Josh’s bed that she crawled into…

Candy texts Josh: I heard you and Jade started dating! Congratulations on landing a new girlfriend!

Is it just me or does this sound a bit passive-aggressive to anyone else?

Ella talks authoritatively to one of the babies

Ella is like, obsessed with the babies. So much for being evil.

Joaquin talks on the phone outside his house

Meanwhile, at Joaquin’s house…

Ella runs up from the beach to join Joaquin and Sergio

He invited Ella over, and because she’s not a jerk like Candy, she ENTHUSIASTICALLY came over! I mean, from the looks of things she even swam there.

Moving In Together!

For some reason I thought having Joaquin ask Ella to move in with him would bypass the “household split and merge” dialog, but it doesn’t.

Soooo, because there are currently eleven residents of the Cooper household, Ella is BANNED from moving out unless two other Sims also move out >:/

Britta and Morgan stand around outside Joaquin’s house

soz, Britta and Morgan.

Ella and Joaquin jump into bed together

At least, now that she lives with her husband, the two of them can try for a baby together! (PS they succeeded.)

Britta and Morgan stand outside a cottage

Aaaaand since Britta and Morgan are FORBIDDEN from EVER RETURNING HOME unless two of the Sims currently living there leave, they moved into this charming little two-bedroom cottage. I mean, it was a two-bedroom cottage; I turned the smaller room into a study. Forgot to take internal pictures of it though cos I suck.

Billie gets a text: I heard you and Arnold started dating! Congratulations on landing a new boyfriend!

I feel like this Gemma Otero chick is a bit slow on the uptake.

Arnold holds up a beaming toddler Oscar

Oscar’s now a toddler! He got the Wild trait.

Josh holds Sierra, who looks like she’s chewing at the fabric of his top

Sierra’s also a toddler. She got the Angelic trait. (Which iirc Arnold also had, and we can see how well that has followed him into adult life.)

Arnold has a whim to Instigate a Sim

Case in point.

Arnold plays with Oscar

Josh plays with Sierra

Toddler play time!

possible interaction clicking on Oscar: Crush Dreams

This was a possible interaction as Arnold clicking on Oscar… I DID NOT CLICK ON IT

India pulls a confused face at Delta

India had a whim to Be Mischievous, but she did NOT really appreciate Delta’s reaction.

India, holding her homework book, stands in front of Delta and cries

Then Delta autonomously did something like ‘Share Melancholy Thoughts’ and reduced India to hysterical sobbing…

Sierra sits in a high chair and plays with her food

Sierra follows in the family footsteps and plays with her food. *sigh*

Arnold scowls at Ella through the door

Arnold: THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE
Ella: Dude, I’m your sister. I thought I’d pay a visit!
Arnold: WE DON’T WANT YOUR KIND HERE

(Seriously, Ella just autonomously paid a visit and Arnold was autonomously scowling at her through the door and not letting her in -______-;)

Ella tells Arnold about stained polo shirts

Ella: Hey bro, just some constructive criticism: maybe when you get dressed tomorrow, don’t choose the shirt with the mustard stain, yeah?

Arnold looks at Ella, scratching his chin insecurely

Arnold: You mean… I’ve been wearing a dirty shirt like a slob all day? :(

No, Arnold. Ella is Evil and you are mean to her. She’s pulling your leg.

Arnold yells at Ella, who looks shocked

Arnold: My shirt isn’t dirty at all! HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT, YOU STUPID [beeeeeeeeeeep]

Ella continues to stare at Arnold, shocked, now with her hands over her heart

Ella: I am shocked—SHOCKED!—that my own brother would dare accuse me of such impropriety!
Arnold: ok well you’re still a [beeeeeeeeeeep]. In fact you’re worse than a [beeeeeeeeeeep], you are truly a [beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep]

Ella growls at Arnold

Ella: HOW DARE YOU

Ella raises a hand (slightly) to Arnold to dismiss him

Ella: DON’T EVEN TALK TO ME.

Billie has an Uncomfortable moodlet: Jealous Pangs

Billie got this moodlet from seeing Josh talk to her daughter/his niece, Sierra. Seriously?

Arnold is about to throw a drink in Ella’s face

the liquid hits Ella’s face and she reels backwards

Their relationship isn’t even that bad (just above zero) and this is the shit he pulls autonomously. #perfecthost

Oscar sits in his dirty high chair as a pile of spilt food lies in the foreground on the floor

thx Oscar

Billie (from the dining table) tells off Oscar (on the floor) as India looks on in amusement

Billie: Don’t do that, Oscar! BAD!
Oscar: Bad? Me? :(
India: lol… dw kiddo, keep making all the messes you like!

foreground: Josh gazes towards the ceiling in the toddlers’ room with a look of abject boredom on his face. background: Ella rages at Blarffy

Ella: *having a full-on meltdown to Blarffy*
Josh: Maaaaan, potty training suuuuuucks. I wonder what Candy’s doing right now?

You’ll find out next update! Until then, goodbye!
