Chapter 4: Shock And Awe




Warning: Long.


To my utter shock and awe, the game saved itself on crash (??? Dubble-yew Tee Eff??!?!?!), so we start up from where we left off last time...
Really, I had to pause the game and just stare for a while I was so shocked.

Ursula Lemuel (The hostess of the party), tells Savannah she's been 'misbehaving' and should leave. I assume Suzuki got the same message, as he walks out not far behind. Savannah takes the time to grin at the wing-man on her way out.

At 3.30am, I get all giggly and happy. Wahooo! This... thing... will go on!

Must be the hormones, she washes the dishes before heading to work.

While at work, she rolls a wish to talk to Gavin (who is the fat vampire she went on a failed date with, and also a coworker). I look through her relationships again and discover she's enemies with Luna Wahine. I'm sure we've never met her... :|
Maybe she's related to someone she slept with? She's a teen.

The hormones kick in again after work, and she looks happy about cleaning the thousand papers outside.

Another co-worker calls, Angarika Goyave, and asks if we could hang out. I accept and let Savannah continue on her cleaning spree while we wait.

Then the time comes, and I wait axiously to see if I'll have to edit her maternity wear. These things always take ages to load, so I pause the game and wander around the house for a bit.

I get back and unpause. Savannah isn't breathing. If it wasn't for the leaves moving in the breeze, and the fact her phone starts ringing I'd think it had crashed again.

I get bored and take a pic or two of the skyline.

I unpause again, and wait as the stars rise and twinkle above.
It's lucky Angarika never bothered to show...

Suddenly, Savannah hops to life! She's hungry. Her tummy feels funny... Like it's growing...

Oh! It grew!
I then go into options and enable memories, before disabling them again. For some reason I have to do that every time I go into this save, but I forgot this time.

"Hey, rock, I wanna hold your hand." Flirty trait in action...

So, I check out her everyday maternity...

"Heh. Can we change it?"
Savannah looks a bit bewildered... Yes, love, we can change it.

Much more your style. Tops a bit faded, but it's only for two days.

She dreams about babies :)

I was happy to see that her sleepwear was maternity enabled. Made my life easier.

The paperboy does this every day. Why does he want to come inside anyway? :|

We get a notification about a simfest starting at Micks. I've never attended one of these things before, and since all her friends are at work, I decide we can go check it out.

When we arrive nobody is there, so she sings kareoke for a bit.

There's a singer up first. I forget his stage name, but his real name is Thiam Moya.
He is amazing. No, really. I'm surprised by how good this is, and vow that the next heir of this... 'wishacy'... will be a performer.

Savannah seems equally impressed. She keeps swooning too.

Thiam... Well, what do you think? I think he has potential. He has an amazing voice, too, and I embarrassingly found myself clapping at the end of his set (no, really...).

Savannah wastes no time in approaching him. I'm liking her thought bubble.

For some reason, he decides she's being impolite. She had a 'saw awful performance' moodlet, too. Really? I enjoyed it, and everyone else was dancing and cheering and clapping!
Anyway, so she apologises (who knows what for?)

One thing leads to another...
(Paahahahaa! I love this pic soooo much)
LTW: 3/5

Savannah gets hungry, so she goes to the bar, you know how the vodka diet is good for pregnancy...
While she's doing that, I watch the next performer. He's bendy...

He sets himself on fire, and I laugh to much to watch anymore.

The proprietor starts giving Savannah disapproving looks around her third cup of juice, so I send her to the bistro.

It cost SEVENTY-FIVE SIMOLEONS to eat there, and she comes out with a burger?! Better be damn good, girl!

I'm bored of her same 4 wishes, so I fulfil the 'chat with Gavin' over the phone. She tells him she's having Suzuki's baby. She should probably tell Suzuki at some point...

We immediately replace that wish with one to skinny-dip, so I send her to the pool.
Upon arrival, I remember pregnant sims can't skinny dip for some reason, and so she swims a few lengths instead.

Bump pic. She still has 12 hours left at this point. I swear my sims get bigger each pregnancy :|

The next day, Suzuki sends a gift. It's awful and garish and I hate it, but I put it up anyway.

Savannah gets really into her cleaning...

Before going into labour while attempting to finish clearing the newspapers.
She actually still looks attractive like that! I'm impressed!

Baby girl, Sahara, is the first baby that has had the privilege of feet in my game. As you can see, there is minor floating, but I'll take floating babies over burritos any day. Plus, I never play from this angle.
Her traits are Loves The Outdoors and Excitable.

Suzuki appeared from nowhere at the hospital. Really. He never went in, I was looking out for him, but he came out and caught the cab home with us.

I moved her dresser to her family inventory. There was no room for a crib, but we'll move soon. I'll probably cheat ;)

Savannah stares at Sahara like this for a while. I think she's in shock. She thought this was a real wishacy, but she never wished for a baby...

She did, however, wish to marry someone shortly after this. I got rid of the pillow-fighting wish as the interaction just cancels itself anyway, and locked this one in. I'll let her fulfill it soon. Probably after that LTW is complete, though...

  1. Paaaahahahahahaha! I love how the hostess tells
    Savannah she's being disrespectful when I'd bet §10 that the hostess would do the same if Savannah invited her to a party! (And had a double bed in her house.) How funny!

    Lol. I kind of like attending the sim fests, but they can really bog your game down. Be careful. And I've played an acrobat and a singer and those are lots of fun. I'd love to try the magician, but just haven't. Maybe that can be something my next Wishacy heir does along with yours. That would be fun to see side by side for comparison. I'm rambling. Love Savannah's look at life and how 'into' her cleaning she is! lol!

    1. I know! How ROOD! Savannah was being forced into the whole thing anyway, and she ends up getting kicked out (still got the 'Thanks for coming to my party, Savannah!' of course)

      Bog them down how? :| Not that this has any plot so if this gets bogged down I can just up and move with no worries. I'm not sure which I'll pick. We'll see if Sav has any more kids, who I like best, and what I think they'd rather do.

      Savannah's look at life? :| Confused!
      Yeah, hahaaaa me and my awful jokes. :p

  2. Why can't my Sims tell their guests they are being disrespectful when they woohoo in their beds?

    Yay for baby Sahara, and getting a marriage wish!

    1. I know! That annoys me! I can get kicked out, but people can just stroll into my house and start eating my food and messing up my beds without penalty! I don't want to have to stop what I'm doing to get rid of them! There should be an option...
      Twallan? If you're there.... ;)

      Yay for forced babies! Or, half forced. I forced the woohoo, and the baby happened. The marriage wish shocked me. She doesn't even have a romantic interest! She still needs to woohoo two more sims in two more places anyway, so I'll get that done first.
      Not that fulfilling the LTW means anything at this point, as I've barely glanced at the rules and have probably cheated a lot. And I need to cheat to get a bigger house. I want a gift-giving party in the winter. Not done that yet as my RL doesn't have holidays.

    2. Technically, you can't pass the torch to the next heir until you've achieved the LTW. But you are playng by a more relaxed set of rules, lol.

      The whole bed thing reminds me of the Fable games, actually. If you went into aynyone's house after dusk, they'd immediately start calling the guards on you and you'd have to pay a fine or go to jail. But when you'd come home at 3am looking to get it on with your wife, you'd have this trail of peasants following you around, coming up into your bedroom, clapping and cheering for you. And if you try to get it on with your wife, she thinks you're a pig for wanting to do it in front of an audience. But even though you're a bloody hero worshipped by everyone, you can't call the guard to get all these peasants out of your damn bedroom. No sex for you, hero of Albion! And then your wife divorces you for not enough sex.

    3. Yeah, I'm barely playing by any rules at this point.

      LMAO! You do play some odd games... Was it good apart from not being anble to sleep with your wife after a hard days killing?

    4. Fable was an awesome game...they are actually going to release an anniversary edition of the first Fable game this coming Feb. or so. And I'm so going to get it. Because. Must have.
      Even though it is a sword and sorcery hero game, it has a really great sense of humor to it, which is a big part of what I love about the series.

  3. Crashed but still saved? you're a lucky lucky girl. Yay for hormones and cleaning sprees! *snort* flirting with a rock, Too funny. Why do you have to enable and disable memories? Does that help game performance? Memories are kinda useless anyway.

    The privilege of feet. heehee.

    1. I know, right?! Weird. I hit 'save', and then it crashed after about 2 seconds. My 'save screen' is up for 5 minutes, so now I know it's just making me wait for no reason. Silly game.

      It helps game performance massively, but I have to enable and redisable everytime because the feature doesn't work properly.

      Hehe :D
