Nishidake Household: Chapter 4, Part 4
Charlie's beloved dog Allie my have passed away but she's got lots of family to build her back up. Guardianship had to take a back seat for grief as this chapter concludes.
In this part Keira and Marta come to visit, Clover ages up, and the spice festival actually happens!
Kaori is busy cooking dinner and talking to Marta while geek Keira takes the opportunity to do a little gaming.
Keira: KAORI
Kaori: Did no one ever tell you not to yell at someone working with a knife
Keira: Ship, sorry
Kaori: What is it
Keira: I text her we're staying and she replied with a smiley
When Charlie gets home she manages a small smile for the visitors.
Kaori: I made some pho Char
Charlie: I like pho. Last time we had it... Allie was here
Keira: Did she ever sneak some
Charlie: She tried once and almost burnt her nose
Kaori: She was sneezing for days but the vet said she was fine
Keira: I was thinking tomorrow you two could show us the bamboo forest
Charlie: I have work tomorrow
Kaori: But Keira doesn't get much time off university at the moment
Charlie: I suppose
Marta: My shift finishes at 2. Perhaps we could do it then
Charlie: It is pretty peaceful there
Charlie may not feel up to woohoo but she can always hold her own in a pillow fight! She's victorious but before Kaori can sleep she spots something outside. Clover is rolling in another puddle! Kaori tells Charlie she'll handle it, and goes to give Clover a telling off. Clover is unconcerned.
After some relentless hunting of her own tail, Clover heads to bed. She wakes up nice and early. Jumps out of bed and ta da! She's aged up into an adult. She can now go on walks and start to learn some tricks.
Marta: See you later carino
Keira: Have a good shift
Charlie: How come she gets to go to work
Keira: Because... I don't know. Joey would have an answer but I'm too tired to think of one
Clover: *barks*
Charlie: And don't you look spectacular today
Keira: She's mixed breed right
Charlie: Yep, unique
Charlie: Morning K, did you sleep okay
Kaori: I think so but I'm still pretty down
Charlie: Yeah, me to
Kaori: How about a run with Clover? She looks keen
Charlie: Do you want to go for walkies
Clover: *barks*
Kaori: Sounds like yes to me
Charlie: What'll you do
Kaori: Journal I think, unwind
While Charlie and Clover make tracks in the fresh snow, Kaori embraces her literary hobby and journals. It's good to work through her feelings. When Charlie is back tending the garden someone rings the doorbell.
Charlie: Mum?
Kayleigh: Your dad and I thought we could tag along for this hike
When Marta arrives back the group head down the mountain a bit to Senbanmachi. It's here that they'll be able to start the hike around the old bamboo forest. A light snow covers the area, making the surroundings seem even more magical.
Kaori: Stick together. Main things to remember, phones on silent-
Charlie: And no photos! I've learned that one
Marta: It's not haunted is it
Harvey: You okay Marta
Marta: I had an awful nightmare with a ghost
Keira: You're awake now, promise
Kayleigh: Let's get going
Kaori: Forward team
The group move forward, up the stairs and into the forest. Initially they chatter a little, and Marta freaks out, but as they reach the heart the peace surrounds them. The six fall silent and admire the beauty around them. When Kaori speaks she recounts what her grandparents told her of the forest.
Snow continues to fall softly and a light frost still covers the ground that the sun hasn't touched yet. The tranquility is just what Charlie needs to calm the tides of grief inside her. For just a few hours, she can forget the pain, and simply be.
At home Charlie and Kaori excuse themselves for an hour while Keira sets about making tea. After properly letting go Charlie sits down to do some journalling of her own. Kaori however heads upstairs to work on some travel footage the agency has requested.
Charlie also cooks. She has the cuisine hobby but hasn't felt inspired lately. Some of her plants are also ready to evolve. I haven't seen the crouching evolving animation in ages and I missed it! Clover keeps an eye on Kaori to make sure she finishes her product, but also has time for Charlie hugs.
The next day Charlie still has some work tasks to do so Kaori takes Clover for her morning walk. It's pretty dark and cloudy, Kaori slips over a few times. When Charlie is caught up she takes some time to get the bonsai tree in shape, I have been completely neglecting it, whoops.
Clover gets back filthy so Charlie takes her for a bath. Surprisingly Clover is pretty chill about having baths now, guess she listened to Allie. She's giving Clover a rub down when
*doorbell*
Reece: I'm so sorry about Allie Charlie
Charlie: Yeah, me to
Reece: How are you doing
Charlie: I'm coping
Charlie: Since you're here though, I've been meaning to give you something
Reece: Why
Charlie: Because you're living in some shack with a dude I've never meant
Reece: Berries
Charlie: You can plant them. But sell the dragonfruit rather than eat it, it's good money and festivals are glitchy right now
Reece: Thanks Char
Charlie: When can I meet him
Reece: He's not really a people person
Charlie: Yet clearly he can cope with you
Reece: Excuse me, cope?
Charlie: You know what I mean. If you can interrupt, you do interrupt. You talk so much
Reece: I can't help that my brain goes fast
Charlie: Whatever. Photos for mum?
I've been shuffling around photos and Charlie and Kaori need more for their electronic albums. They grab some with Keira and Marta then it's time for this stay over to conclude.
Charlie: Thanks for coming
Marta: It was good getting to know you better
Keira: Bye sis, look after yourself okay
Charlie: Have you applied for university
Reece: Not yet, I got time, it's not even my birthday yet
Charlie: If you want to renovate your shack you'll need a paying job
Reece: Hey now, don't hate the shack life until you've tried the shack life. I'd be more concerned about all these split levels, I could break my ankle
With all guests gone Charlie and Kaori had the house to themselves again. They played on the console for a bit, joined by Clover.
Clover: *barks excitedly*
Charlie: Down in front
Kaori: She just likes the TV
Charlie: She does seem pretty happy
Clover: *stares in adoration*
Kaori: Silly dog
Final day of the rotation passes fast. Kaori takes Clover on a run while Charlie tends the garden. Later they both head to the gym (yes where the unexpected death occurs) in Willow Creek to practice their rock climbing. Charlie finally reaches level 4! We're officially 2/3 of the way to attempting the mountain climb.
Having reached level 8 charisma Charlie is promoted after her shift to Starter player. To celebrate the ladies head to their favourite festival, which I'm beyond glad is showing up.
Kaori: We've been training, we got this
Charlie: Let's smash it
Kaori: Do those plants look weird to you
Charlie: Yes
While not eating regularly the two don't seem to be breathing fire which is promising. Time ticks on. The plates drop to half full. Charlie clutches her stomach. In the end, both women beat the challenge! Winners shirt selfie anyone? I don't think it'll be warm enough for the mountain unfortunately
Back home Charlie showers Clover with affection, then heads to sleep with her wife. This Nishidake chapter has drawn to a close. Not tons of guardian development but I'm trying to keep my restricted target for once. Plus they're still workshopping ideas of how they can help the mountain.

Nishidake Household: Chapter 4, Part 3
Allie has lived a long life right by Charlie's side.
TW: Contains sim dog death, but no dead bodies
In this part Kaori finally has some time on the slopes and Charlie is working hard for her promotion. When Allie's time comes Charlie looks to those around her for comfort.
Charlie: I'm back! Don't worry, I saved enough energy for our walk
Allie: *barks*
Fair warning, this is Allie's last day.
As she and Charlie undertake their regular walk she treasures feeling the sun on her fur, the snow crunching under paw, and spending time with her favourite human being.
Kaori also pops home after her climbing session to check that Clover is doing okay. Then it's time for her favourite hobby, flying! At least, when she boards over a jump and is up, moving through the air, it feels a lot like flying. Whatever her future holds, she can't imagine ever stopping this.
Having maxed out the snowboarding skill can't guarantee success however and one run ends in a wipeout. She dusts off and carries on.
Charlie: Are you okay? I saw that you know
Kaori: I'm an adrenaline seeker Char, I don't mind some bumps
Allie: *barks*
Kaori: Well of course I don't mean to crash Allie
Charlie: Maybe we hit the snow a bit hard
Allie: *whines*
Charlie: Don't worry, a bath will clean you right up
Allie: *barks happily*
Charlie: Could you tell Clover baths are not deadly, I don't think she understands
Allie: *barks in agreement*
Charlie: That's my girl
Once the bath is done Charlie goes to tend the garden, and tenderise the faux meat wall. Kaori, having finished another snowboarding POV video, sets about fixing their dew collectors.
Allie: We need to talk about baths kid
Clover: I nearly died in mine
Allie: Baths can't kill you, just try relax
Kaori: Do we know if the spice festival is on this week yet
Charlie: Nah, high school events are clogging the calendar up
Kaori: I suppose it's more likely we'll have one in the future than never have one again
Charlie: I love how you always find a bright side
Kaori: You're my bright side
Charlie: So glad I found you
Kaori: You have homework
Charlie: Fudge I do. Can't I flirt a bit longer?
Kaori: Not if you want to stay employed
Charlie goes to study more opponents while Kaori sets about making more curry. I know pho is spicy but I'm not sure if it'll help in the spice challenge.
Allie: *barks hysterically*
Charlie: Is that the alarm bark, what's happening
Kaori: I just have to shift this pot
Charlie: Holy tomato is that fire???
Kaori: Just smoke right now
Charlie: Shouldn't we, I don't know, run and call the fire fighters
Kaori: Absolutely not
Charlie: What the duck
Kaori: I need to kick this fear of fire and this is my chance, can't let a firefighter stop me
Charlie: I know you're an adrenaline seeker but this is dangerous
Kaori: If you're worried get the dogs outside
Charlie: Why am I not routing to safety with the puppy???
Charlie: If they make us evacuate toddlers why not puppies? This is a massive oversight
Kaori takes a deep breath and begins to extinguish the fire. Part way through the smoke alarm finally starts up as the fire spreads to an adjoining counter
Fireman: Need a hand ladies
Kaori: Who called you
Fireman: It's automatic with the alarm
Kaori: Well I've taken care of it, and gotten over my fear of fire
Fireman: Just be careful next time you're cooking
Charlie: Are you implying we cook just because we're women
Fireman: The fire did start at the stove
Charlie: Oh, right, forgot that bit
Kaori: I'm sorry about that Al. Weren't you a good girl being the first to discover the fire
Allie: *barks happily*
Heading back inside Allie goes to check on Charlie. Charlie has gone back to studying opponents but is glad for a chatting buddy. Kaori also makes sure Clover is okay after the scare.
With her work task complete Charlie can spend sme time on her promotion task, raising her charisma. Sweet Allie never leaves her side as she practices. Before bed Charlie gives her a big hug and tells her she loves her. Kaori does the same.
In the early hours Allie crosses the rainbow bridge. In a heartwarming moment, as if sensing the Grim reaper has entered the room, Kaori tucks Charlie close to her right when Allie leaves. Goodbye Allie, I miss you already and I'm glad we have a photo wall.
That said, Olive and I have the honour of ferrying Allie to the timeless save. There she is pleased to see Geeta, Sachiko and Shigeru again. There not the only ones there for her though. She bounds happily over to her mum and two of her littermates who are waiting for her. She's at peace here now.
Back in the normal save Charlie is understandably devastated. She had Allie for half of her own life, and doesn't have many happy memories that don't include the dog.
Kaori: I'm so sorry Char
Charlie: She was old, I know that. She'll be happy now, I'm the one who has to adjust
Kaori: What can I do
Charlie: Nothing to be done
Kaori: Maybe you should have the day off work
Charlie: I can't Allie would want me to carry on
Kaori: Char, it's okay to take time to grieve, she was important
Charlie starts to answer but ends in tears.
Clover: *whines*
Charlie: Do you need a hug too? Mummy can do that
Unable to make herself deliver the news on the phone, Charlie and Kaori visit the Fosters.
Charlie: I'm so glad you're here
Kayleigh: What's wrong honey
Charlie: The watcher is the meanest person ever
Kayleigh: Come again
Charlie: Allie is gone. I've heard of life extension, why not for her
Kayleigh: If you believe in the watcher, you must believe they're the one who gave Allie to you in the first place
Charlie: So what
Kayleigh: So if they're the one who brought you two together, I doubt they would take her away to simply be mean
Charlie: But why not give her more time with me
Kayleigh: Dogs don't live as long as humans, you know that
Charlie: Well that sucks
Kayleigh: Yes, it does
...
Carson: We'll never see her again
Kaori: Not in this save
Harvey: She's in the timeless save now bud
Kaori: But we have our memories, and plenty of photos
Devin texts Charlie inviting her around so we go for a quick visit. Charlie and Kaori get to vent, cry and catch up on gossip. Me? I go and have a sneaky check up on the boys. They seem so be doing well. They babble to each other, watch the bigfoot toy with fascination and Rilian blows a raspberry!
Charlie: We woke up and she was gone
Keira: I can't believe it
Marta: I'm so sorry you two
Kaori: Thanks
Charlie: I got to go
Keira: Already?
Charlie: I have work
Charlie trudges off and a baffled Keira and Marta look at Kaori.
Kaori: She thinks Allie would want her to soldier on regardless
Marta: Grief can be blinding
Keira: I wish I could help
Kaori: Maybe you can
Keira: How
Kaori: Would you two consider coming and staying a few days
Keira: Absolutely! I'm between semesters
Marta: And the commute is just an illusion
Kaori: You sure you're not secretly studying philosophy
Kaori races home to do some cleaning, she is a neat sim after all. At 6 on the dot Keira and Marta arrive, suitcases in tow. Kaori welcomes them, moves their cases to the spare room, and hopes she has done the right thing for Charlie.

Nishidake Household: Chapter 4, Part 2
Kaori and Charlie may not be sure where to start as mountain guardians but they know sims are watching over them.
In this part the two have a dinner to catch up with flatmates and discuss why they're not planning on growing their family with humans any time soon. Also I make myself tear up (I'm emotional okay) by having Charlie discuss the timeless save with Allie but she is alive for this whole part.
The women reach the end of their hike. Up a few stone staircases set into the mountain they find it, the mountain shrine. A memorial to all those who came before, Kaori's ancestors. It's time to let them know that these women are here to stay, and look after Mt Komorebi.
The prayers are cast into the tunnel and the Nishidake's listen for the echo to tell them they've been heard.
Kaori: We did it
Charlie: That was more draining than I expected
Kaori: You know what cheers me up
Charlie: Woohoo
Kaori: Yes! But also food. Let's go get dinner. Catch up with some friends
Dinner time with the old flat crew, minus their kids
Host: Hello and welcome to 5-3-1 Shinrinyoku. This restaurant was built by the gallery's own KA0260
Kaori: Okay can we-
Host: Can I just say... Hi
Kaori: Ah, hi
Host: Don't be thrown by my looks, I'm also tender and loving
Kaori: Excuse me
Luna: Is he actually
Rahul: Just wait, she's got this
Charlie: Do I get a hi? Being my wife's wife
Host: Ah, of course
Kaori: Table for 6
Host: Yes, this way
Devin: No one leads me anywhere
Luna: He's doing his job
Devin: Sure he is
Host: Call me if you need anything
Charlie: We won't
Kaori: Bye
Charlie: Do you two have to deal with nonsense like that
Devin: No but none of my fans are creeps, by definition of being my fans
Cassandra: Henford is pretty quiet
Rahul: I don't think we've encountered any paparazzi yet
Luna: You mean friends with cameras
Charlie: Oh you do not
Devin: It's a nice way to refer to them
Cassandra: Don't you worry about the boys
Luna: What about them
Rahul: I don't think we'd be comfortable with pictures of our kids in the papers
Luna: Most of them understand not to take pictures of the boys
Charlie: If any don't, just let me know
Waitress: Ready to order?
The group order and Cassandra has to excuse herself to go search for a bathroom.
Charlie: It honestly sounds like hell
Luna: I mean, it's not hell
Kaori: Spending 9 months growing kids only to not be happy at the end sounds like hell
Luna: I'm happyish now
Rahul: Well there you go
Charlie: Huh
Luna: I wouldn't change having them just to avoid the postpartum stuff
Charlie: So glad I'm never having kids
Devin: Wait, never
Charlie: I certainly don't plan on getting pregnant Devin
Kaori: And it would be hard to scale the mountain with nausea
Luna: So you wouldn't get pregnant either
Cassandra: Food's here, what did I miss
Charlie: It's not that big a deal, plenty of people don't get pregnant
Rahul: So you don't have a mum bugging you for grandkids
Cassandra: That's just you big guy
Devin: Pa bugged us for a while
Charlie: We're only... how old are we
Kaori: 26 Charlie: Thanks
Charlie: I mean, maybe we could adopt eventually
Kaori: Maybe. We're not in a rush
Luna: Life can be shorter than we think
Kaori: Not when you can throw chopsticks like this it's not
Charlie: Thanks for coming to us guys
Rahul: No problem
Devin: It's good to get out of the valley
Kaori: I bet
Allie: *barks* remember not to rush the door, they hate that
Clover: *barks* why
Allie: *barks* they only have 2 legs to balance on
Charlie: Say, want to go not make a baby
Kaori: I'd love to go not make a baby
Charlie: Knew it
So the two have some baby free fun.
Winter is officially begun! With it, food coma day! Kaori begins making a grand breakfast while Charlie works on fixing a few things.
Kaori: Are you sure you don't want me to do that
Charlie: You're busy
Kaori: And you hate handiness
Charlie: I promise not to electrocute myself
Kaori: You better not
Kaori: Cuteness alert! And breakfast!
Charlie: Aww, I'm here K
Kaori: You really don't mind not having kids
Charlie: I mean, if they're blood relatives to you... could they end up tied to the mountain as well
Kaori: I think they would
Charlie: Is that fair to them, they might want to live elsewhere
Kaori: I don't want to have kids just to trap them either
Charlie: But we'll probably need someone to take this role after us
Kaori: Maybe adopted kids down the road could be guardians without...
Charlie: Risking death
Kaori: Yeah
Charlie: We'll be here for a long time yet
Kaori: I know
Charlie wanted to take Allie for another proper jog so Kaori sorted out the garden for the day, with Clover's help of course. 2pm rolls around and it's time for Charlie to head to work. Kaori got a request from her publicity to make a fishing video so time to try find a fishing hole.
Here we are. The only fishing spot in the whole of Mt Komorebi. One big mountain, one tiny fishing pier. Kaori examines the water and sees a bunch of fish swimming around. She probably should have invited father in law Harvey along to help identify them.
The afternoon doesn't go terribly. While the drone has battery Kaori manages a few catches. She gets a minnow, a talking llama toy and an infamous cowplant berry. The drone can only last so long however so after a few hours she has to pack it up and head home.
Kaori: Where's the best co editor known to man or dog
Allie: *barks*
Kaori: There you are!
With Allie's watchful eye Kaori uploads the footage and begins the editing process. She ads a few effects, and smooth transitions, and gets a great video. The publicity agent is delighted.
Another food coma day tradition is baking! Charlie gets home while Kaori is still busy so settles on the couch with Allie.
Charlie: How are you doing girl
Allie: *barks*
Charlie: You know you have lived a wonderful life darling. The timeless save will be lucky to have you
Allie: *whines*
Charlie: Not this second of course
Allie: *barks*
Charlie: But when it happens don't be scared okay. You'll see Kaori's grandparents again. And probably your mum. And I'll be there eventually
Allie: *whines*
Charlie: Oh it won't seem like a long time for you, I promise my darling, be brave my girl
Allie may be tired, but she hasn't finished training Clover. She can't rest yet. She'll give it another day if she can, for Charlie. Allie hopes she's right about the timeless save.
Charlie: Thank the watcher she's still here
Kaori: She is
Charlie: I don't have work today, should we do some guardianship stuff
Kaori: I wanted to go rock climbing, the conditions are perfect. I'm sure the mountain wont fall down in a day
Charlie: Fair enough, how's our gear
Kaori: Still good
They two do some stretching before starting, don't want anyone getting hurt. They're both only level 3 rock climbing so have a lot to learn before they can try for the summit. They just have to remember to keep practicing to boost their abilities. Kaori dreams of the summit view.
And some bonus climbing pictures because I was having fun. Kaori did fall once but still managed to improve her rock climbing to level 4. Oh and Kaori is a neat sim after cleaning up some more stuff this morning.

Nishidake Household: Chapter 4, Part 1
Kaori has recently learned her family are the guardians of Mt Komorebi. Unfortunately with her grandparents having passed away she's not sure where to start.
In this part Kaori discovers the financial side of her inheritance. Her and Charlie also take a hike to the mountain shrine to enjoy the Mt Komorebi views and puzzle out their roles.
We're back! It's been- wait... What have you four done to your house while I've been gone? Dust piles and rubbish heaps? Crikey, we have some work to do.
Charlie: Oh it's terrible out here
Clover: *barks*
Charlie: I mean... This is the perfect spot to empty your bladder
Clover: *barks quizzically*
Charlie: Because you can't just pee on the floor, no matter how cold snow is
Clover: *whines*
Charlie: I know your paws are cold but it's not my fault
Charlie: If I had my way you would absolutely have booties. Ridiculously pink ones
Clover: *barks happily*
Charlie: But we don't have them and it's 3 in the morning and you just need to pull together and do it honey. So how about some pee?
Clover sniffs around and does her business, house trained!
Charlie carries Clover inside and gets her settled on her small bed next to Allie's. Then she climbs in to her own bed and snuggles up with her wife who is already sleeping soundly. With the thermostat set to warm inside the four of them stay toasty warm despite the snow.
Charlie: We better get up, the house needs work
Kaori: I don't suppose we can get it to clean itself
Charlie: No luck. Cass says their robot vacuums glitch with multiple storeys
Allie: *barks*
Charlie: We're getting up
Kaori: Mummies are coming Allie
Everyone moves and Clover finds a new toy
Kaori: No, don't eat the trash!
Allie does not respond
Kaori: Seriously
Charlie: I think she's a bit deaf now poor old thing. You might have to talk closer to her
Kaori sighs and stands up, heading to Allie.
Kaori: Allie if you eat trash, you'll get sick
Allie: *whines*
Charlie: Your FOOD bowl is FULL
Kaori: There better be a spice festival this week
Charlie: We have bigger things on our plate. Hey K, I'll take today off work and we'll sort things, huh?
Kaori: If you're sure. I don't want our being stuck here screwing your job up
Charlie: It'll be fine, won't it Clover
Clover: *barks happily*
Allie: *nuzzles* We'll keep up your pet training today
Clover: *nuzzles* Yes aunt Allie
Kaori: What do you think they're saying to each other
Charlie: Secret dog things
With breakfast finished it's chore time. Charlie deals with the indoor garden that needs harvesting and tending while Kaori cleans up.
Allie: *barks*
Charlie: Is it time for... walkies
Allie: *barks happily*
Charlie: Just let me finish up here
Allie: *barks* I'm not getting any younger
Charlie: K! I'm just taking Allie for her walk, be back soon
Kaori: Sounds good! Be safe out there, don't freeze on me Char
Charlie: I won't
Charlie isn't sure how much time Allie has left so she makes sure to savour every second of their jog together. She's getting used to the persistent cold living by the slopes but the icy patches can still be surprising. At home Kaori keeps busy vacuuming when she suddenly wonders where Clover is...
A snowy pee puddle, the dream of puppies everywhere! Clover is busy spalshing about and is having the time of her life.
Kaori: CLOVER
Clover: *whines*
Kaori: DO NOT play in PUDDLES. You don't know what they're made of! You'll need a bath
Clover: *whines*
Kaori: Don't try hiding behind Allie
Kaori: Got you
Clover: *struggles*
Kaori: Hey, Allie loves baths
Allie: *barks in agreement*
Kaori: It''l be nice and warm
Clover: *whines dramatically*
Charlie sorts out moving the washing into the dryer when
RINGING
Kaori: That's my phone, can you grab it Char? My hands are full
Clover: *whines*
Charlie: Where is it
Kaori: Back left pocket
Charlie: Hello, Kaori's phone. Yes, other Mrs Nishidake here
Kaori: Who is it
Charlie: Estate lawyers. Okay so the paperwork is in the mail? And that's the full written will, word for word? Oh just Sachiko said Kaori would get some kind of instructions
Kaori: Hush Clover, mummy is on the phone
Charlie: A lump payment? Are you sure
Kaori: Lump payment?
Charlie: Yeah no her saving's account will be the correct one
Kaori: What are you talking about?
Charlie mouths one moment as she's clearly taken aback by what the person on the phone is saying
Clover shakes off the water as soon as she can
Charlie: Thanks for calling
Kaori: Run free small one. So what did they say
Charlie: Um the will is in the post but could take a while
Kaori: Good, I need as much info as I can get about this guardianship role
Charlie: And the money is being transferred in one payment to you
Kaori: The money?
Charlie: Oh you know. Just the 365 thousand simoleons your grandparents left you
Kaori: I... they left how much
Charlie: I suppose they really wanted to look after you
Kaori: Us. What will we do with it all
Charlie: I guess it'll be guardianship related right
Kaori: Maybe
Kaori had thought guardianship might be small things but from the inheritance it's clear her family is expected to take financial care of the mountain as well. Feeling overwhelmed she asks Charlie to hike to the mountain shrine with her so she can pray to her ancestors for help.
Charlie: What if they don't like me
Kaori: What do you mean
Charlie: What if they think, who is this random white girl with our descendant, she's not going to help the mountain
Kaori: I don't think that's something they'll worry about. We'll just tell them we want to do the best we can and they'll know
Charlie: Sorry. My depression is strong today
Kaori: Don't apologise for having feelings Char
Charlie: How are you so cheerful all the time
Kaori: It's just the way the cookie crumbled I guess
Charlie: This guardianship thing is going to be big huh
Kaori: More than I realised
Charlie: Can we do it
Kaori: Of course we can. But- wait...
Charlie: What's up
Kaori: I just haven't been up this way for ages. There's a bunch of different paths
Charlie: Maybe it's the ancestors trying to screw me over already, they're mad I wanted powers
Kaori: They are not. We'll learn this layout eventually
Charlie: Oh look, somewhere that fits my mood
Kaori: The old graves
Charlie: Do we know who's buried here
Kaori: Not really
Charlie: Clearly that's something we should fix
Kaori: What are you doing
Charlie: Taking a photo for translations
Kaori: We need a no photos sign up here for tourists
Charlie: Are you saying I'm a tourist
Kori: No, of course not. But people who didn't grow up here don't understand the meaning of these things, the graves, the temple
Charlie: Well that sounds like a place to start
Kaori: What do you mean
Charlie: To preserve this place people need to know about it
Charlie: Take those info boards. How noticeable are they really? Is there a better way to teach people these things
Kaori: I guess we should put our thinking hats on and- oh wait! I love this view
Charlie: Off the bridge
Kaori: I had my first kiss here
Charlie: We are not putting that on the boards
Kaori: But look at the river. It's so peaceful here, yet hardly anyone ever comes
Charlie: Doesn't that make it more peaceful
Kaori: I guess. But it also makes it less important to the community
Charlie: We'll look after it K, I promise
Kaori: That's the woman I love, solution finder

Foster Household: Chapter 7, Part 6
Reece has finally finished high school! While celebrating with his boyfriend the conversation has taken a more serious turn. Samir has been having a rough time lately and is ready to let Reece know why.
This chapter of the Foster Household concludes with Reece and Samir discussing their future. And Kayleigh and Harvey once again being the most bizarrely open minded parents I've ever written. Their parenting style is "Just let the kids do whatever and if they don't die then cool"
Reece: Where are we
Samir: My house
Reece: But I thought-
Samir: My old house
Reece: Wasn't it sold
Samir: They tried but no one wanted to buy it after my parents...
Reece: How old were you when...
Samir: They were killed? Five
Reece: I'm so sorry
Samir: I had a rough time because the bank called
Samir: With me being a YA now it's been transferred back to me
Reece: Is it...
Samir: It got cleaned after... but the funds from what furnishings were fit to be sold could only pay upkeep costs for a few years
Reece: Are we going in then
Samir: Yeah, we are...
Samir rested his hand on the doorknob for a minute before turning it.
Inside was dark and a sheet of dust covered the floor and lone pieces of furniture.
Samir: It feels smaller than I remember
Reece: You are bigger now
Samir: I suppose
Reece: So will you renovate or rent it out or something
Samir: Or something
Reece: Such a tease. What do you mean by that
Samir takes a moment to steady himself before turning to Reece
Samir: I want to live here...
Reece: In the dusty shack your parents were killed in
Samir: Not finished blondie
Reece: Good because i'm sure something just moved in that corner that was bigger than a mouse
Samir: I want to live here with you
Reece: You want... to live with me?
Samir: I do
Reece: Why
Samir: I already told you, I love you
Reece: But living together is like, what grown up people do
Samir: You look grown up to me
Reece: I suppose we have spent a lot of nights together already
Samir: I want to spend all my nights with you
Samir: I'll look after you blondie
Reece: I know but... why not come live with me in Sulani
Samir: I have to be here. I need to find out what happened to my parents. I... I need you here. Please
Reece: Samir, if you need me I wont be anywhere else
Samir: So you'll move in
Reece: If it means so much-
Reece: -I'll move into your dusty murder shack
Samir: Our dusty murder shack
Reece: Ours?
Samir: As in... I kind of already put your name on the deed
Reece: *laughs* you did what? Wait... seriously?
Samir: So it's properly ours
Reece: I don't know if I should punch you or kiss you
Samir: Oh you should definitely kiss me
Reece: Is that an order
Samir: If you like
Reece: I do like. Now that I think about it I can really see a lot of benefits to living together
Samir: Can you now
Reece: You are a master at making me squirm
Samir: Good
Before Reece can get his next sentence out Samir pulls him down into his lap.
Samir: I want to know what happened-
Reece: I get it, if my-
Samir: You are great at talking but please just listen
Reece: Okay, sorry
Samir: Good boy. Whatever happens, you wont get hurt. I swear I wont let what happened to them happen to you
He kisses Reece with unexpected tenderness then.
Reece kisses him back. Samir is clearly still hurt by what happened in this house, no wonder he gets pleasure from controlling what he can.
Samir: You okay blondie
Reece: I just want us to make good memories here
Samir: Me to
Reece: A great way to make memories is actually by playing ping pong
Samir chuckles at their inside joke.
Samir: It's not exactly clean right now
Reece: I don't care
Samir: I do, I want our first time to be good
Reece: If we're both playing, it'll be good. Just tell me what to do boss
Samir: *smiles* Don't worry, I will
Reece: You like that nickname huh
Samir: Told you you'd find one blondie
MANY HOURS LATER...
Carson: Why did we have to wait for Reece
Harvey: We eat as a family
Reece: Sorry. I was playing ping pong and lost track of time
Kayleigh: Who are we to question how you celebrate finishing high school
Reece: Can I talk to you two later
Harvey: Sure
Carson: I want to hear
Reece: It's tall talk
Kayleigh: Are you okay
Harvey: Is it Samir
Reece: I am and it is, well me and him
Kayleigh: Now I know one of you didn't get the other pregnant
Reece: Mum
Harvey: Maybe Samir cheated and got someone else pregnant
Reece: Dad, he didn't cheat
Kayleigh: OMW tell me you didn't cheat
Reece: I didn't! And people complain that I interrupt, geez
Reece: Just listen. I've finished high school now, so I need to think about what comes next
Kayleigh: Are you going to ask if Samir can move in
Reece: No. Actually, I'm going to move in with him
Kayleigh: Really
Reece: You're not upset are you?
Harvey: Of course not. Your life is yours, go live it
Kayleigh: You can always move back in if you need to
Reece: Thanks mum
Kayleigh: If you need an advance on your saving account, just say the word
Reece: I'll talk to Samir, see what he thinks
So Reece heads upstairs to pack, and the next Foster chapter will be just Kayleigh, Harvey and Carson.

Foster Household: Chapter 7, Part 5
Reece is in his final year of high school. As much fun as his genius self has with study, he's also working on getting to know his boyfriend Samir who finds it hard to open up and be around more than one person at a time.
In this part Reece and Samir continue their date and discuss their dynamics. Harvey's hair ages and Reece goes bowling with his friends before completing his final day of high school.
Reece: What do I get if I win
Samir: What do you want
Reece: You know what I want
Samir: I think you're trying to throw me off blondie
Reece: Guilty
Samir: *chuckles*
Reece: Have you... played ping pong before
Samir: Me
Reece: Yeah, I know you said you tried to kiss that boy
Samir: I did, years ago
Samir: You won the game, good boy
Reece: Must you keep distracting me
Samir: I like seeing you flustered
Reece: I want to talk about this you know
Samir: Okay. We'll talk about it then
Reece: I haven't played ping pong with anyone before. Have you
Samir: Does solo ping pong count
Reece: No
Samir: I have not played ping pong with anyone before. Feel good now
Reece: I don't know
Samir: I've played ping pong while thinking of you though
Reece doesn't know what to say to that but feels oddly proud.
Reece: I mean... did I make it a good game
Samir: You made it a great ping pong game
Reece can feel himself blushing and buries his head in Samir's neck to try hide it. Since he's already there he begins a series of kisses along his collarbone.
Samir: You're blushing
Reece: You can't see my face
Samir: I can feel the heat in your cheeks, plus I'm learning how to make you blush
Reece: Can we please go play ping pong
Samir: Good manners, but not yet. How about some space invaders
Reece: Fine Mr bossypants
Samir: *chuckles* watch your left
Reece: Die UFOs! I think there's one-
Samir: I see it
The two launch a solid attack on the invaders, but eventually it's GAME OVER
Samir: We do make a good team
Reece: Are we a weird team
Samir: I'm not a genius. I don't follow
Reece: I like it when you take the lead, and when you praise me it feels like I'm the most important person in the world. And you're this shy guy who is also somehow the most commanding person I've ever met
Samir chuckles and kisses Reece on the forehead lovingly.
Samir: Blondie you really haven't researched much ping pong have you
Reece: I've been a bit busy researching football
Samir: Ah. Well allow me to explain. There are different techniques, and what works for one player wont work for another
Samir: It's about finding the technique that works for you, nothing weird about that. People play differently. Like you said, we fit together
Reece: You remember that?
Samir: I remember everything you say, although you do say a lot sometimes
Reece: I can work on that
Samir: Don't change. For me, or anyone
Reece: Why not
Samir: Because I love you just the way you are
Reece wonders if he was hearing things but Samir keeps smiling at him.
Samir: Speechless blondie
Reece: I guess you just take my breath away sometimes
Samir: Good
Samir sweeps Reece into his arms and begins to kiss him. Reece feels his worries slip away
Reece can't quite understand how the guy who hates crowds seems to have no problem romancing him in public. It must be because when they're together everything else just becomes background noise.
Reece: Wait
Samir: What? Are you still hurt
Reece: No, I just... love you to
Samir: *chuckles* good boy
Carson wakes up feeling scared. He had an awful nightmare about monsters chasing him. Kayleigh notices he seems off. He recounts as best he can and both Kayleigh and Reece agree it sounds awful. Carson is worried he could have it again but Kayleigh assures him they'll look in to it if it does.
Harvey spends the day working from home, in the loosest possible sense. He takes time to sail around to various fishing spots, and tries some land spots as well. He manages to catch an endangered Leopard Shark and doesn't hesitate to release it back to the vast ocean. Hopefully it'll survive the temporary abduction.
Kayleigh spends her day off work painting and selling. She makes several masterpieces, and duplicates of ones she already has. She only keeps one of each masterpiece for display. Her hard work boosts her celebrity level to 4 stars. That's right, she's a proper celebrity now!
It's not all work however and Mr and Mrs Foster use the time with an empty house to have some woohoo. Using the bathroom afterwards Harvey is shocked to discover his blonde hair is now grey. He had hoped to avoid grey for a few more years but it's caught him, he is 60 after all.
After school the crew heads to a bowling alley. After much glitching, I mean... discussion it's decided Reece will bowl first on the left and Deanna will do the first run on the right.
Reece: This is just physics. I can- omw I dropped it
Samir: Do-over?
Reece: Right! I didn't drop it in the lane
Deanna: Let's go
Paris: You got this babe
Noe: You must be glad to be done with high school
Samir: Mmhm
Noe: You keeping busy
Samir: *shrugs*
Deanna: I knocked some down!
Paris: *cheers*
Reece: Let me get the right angle
Tamika: Just bowl already
Reece: Don't boss me around!
Samir: *chuckles to self*
Reece: Damn it, I missed 1
Samir: You got 9
Deanna: Now you two are all official and everything we should see more of you Samir
Samir: Hmm
Paris: We could double date
Samir: Maybe
Deanna: Come on, I'm Reece's best friend and I hardly know you
Samir: Mmhm
Reece: We'll get back to you De, don't worry
Noe: Finally, my turn
Tamika: No way, it's my go
Noe: Paper scissors rock?
Tamika: You always cheat
Reece: How do you cheat at paper scissors rock
Noe: Fine, you go, just make sure to tell dad I let you
Tamika: Out of the way everyone
...
Reece: Hey, you okay
Samir: People
Reece: We don't have to stay
Samir: No. We stay as long as you're happy. I can handle some discomfort
Reece: You'll like them when you get to know them
Samir: You like them, so I will, individually
Reece: Thank you for coming, I feel better when you're around
Samir: Anything to keep you happy blondie
Deanna: Okay you two, say cheese!
High school is drawing to a close and Tamika bids it goodbye with some light pranking. Reece already has a bunch of photos with Deanna, so he snaps some commemorative ones with Noe and Tamika. Paris is upset they'll all be graduating, leaving her doing her last year alone, so pouts for her picture.
Final exams, never anyone's favourite. Unless you're Reece and relish the chance to show off your smarts. Lunch passes quickly and before he knows it, Reece is closing the book on his high school experience.
Samir takes Reece out to celebrate and what do you know, they end up by the tunnel of love. The pier seems to be deserted again, the rain must be keeping other sims away. The couple take another trip in the cuddle carts and use the opportunity to mess around a bit, just enough to light up the sign.
Samir: You did it blondie, high school is done
Reece: I'm pretty sure I aced the exams
Samir: I know you did
Reece: I feel safe with you. Do you feel safe with me
Samir: Of course
Reece: Then tell me why you were having a rough time the other day. You're not the only one who can remember
Samir: I was going to talk to you about that
Reece: Were you really
Samir: Yes. I was just waiting
Reece: For what
Samir: *chuckles* for you not to be a high schooler
Reece: Really?
Samir: Let me take you someplace
Reece: Where
Samir: Somewhere important blondie
Reece: If it's with you, I'm in, all the way

Foster Household: Chapter 7, Part 4
Last time, Carson's tattle-telling actually scored Reece a room upgrade and the Foster family met up for a BBQ. Samir was busy with birthday stuff but did show up just after midnight for cuddly hijinks.
In this part Reece begins his final year of High School, Kayleigh tries to spend time with Charlie at a public library, and Reece runs afoul of some bullies at a beach clean-up.
Reece wakes and happily manoeuvres himself out of Samir's arms without waking him. Carson however wakes up sad.
Carson: Does he hate me
Reece: Huh
Carson: Samir
Reece: Why would you think that
Carson: Cause I ratted you out
Reece: Little siblings rat out older siblings, it's the way of the world
Reece: When Charlie broke a window I ran to mum so fast, and when Keira spilled paint everywhere
Carson: You don't hate me, right
Reece: Of course not. And look, I'll put in a good word with Samir
Carson: Thanks Reece
Reece: But don't even think about hugging me after hugging that trash bag!
Reece: Sami
Samir: No
Reece: Why are nicknames hard
Samir: I have faith in you. You're a genius, you'll find one
Reece: I don't have to go to school
Samir: Hey, don't let anyone stop you from learning, even me. Promise me blondie
Reece: I promise
Samir: Good. Now kiss me and go
Reece: So demanding
Reece takes a quick library selfie to send to Samir. Samir's response is too explicit to post. When the genius can focus he preps for exams. They may be at the end of the week but can't be too prepared. Also Noe and Tamika got their 16yr old glow ups as well!
Reece: Say SENIORS
Deanna: SENIORS
...
Reece: You ready for final year
Tamika: I'm ready to be done with high school, and jerks
Alfonso: Are you talking about me
Tamika: If the eavesdropper fits!
Reece: I wonder how much trickier exams will be
Tamkia: I'm trying not to think about it
Alfonso: Same
Tamika: No one ducking asked you Alfonso
Alfonso: Suck it Tamika
Tamika: In your dreams loser
Reece: If you two are done I'm trying to listen
Tamika: It's the exact same as she taught us last year
Alfonso: Weird right
Tamika: Do not agree with me Alfonso, it makes me uncomfortable
Reece: *sighs*
Yes most sims change outfit here, it's between game sessions...
Reece: I mean, is that how straight people flirt
Deanna: I have no clue
Noe: My sister is just intense
Reece: Aren't you erratic
Noe: Yeah and your point is
Reece: Nevermind
Reece finishes lunch practicing throws with Elisha Tinker.
Back home Harvey tries out the standing mixer to prep some seafood. Unfortunately it takes his personal inventory fish first (the foul ones he keeps for bait) so he needs to redo it before he dares make dinner with it. Then we have a semi civilized family dinner, no arguments tonight.
Reece has to do his yoga inside since it's raining. What a show off. When he's done he invites Samir over for more snuggle time. Carson wakes up after placing another tooth under his pillow. His tooth fairy collection is growing. No following Reece today, it's Kayleigh's turn.
Charlie: You need how much?
Kayleigh: All I know is I'm not getting promoted until I get better with logic
Charlie: The struggle is-
THUDS
Charlie: Is she okay
Kayleigh: Oh that's just Sofia. She does that
Charlie: The glamour of celebrity life
Kayleigh: I'll give her an autograph when she wakes up
Kayleigh: See, there she goes again
Charlie: Is she not at all concerned about her face
Paparazzi: Mrs Foster! Over here
Kayleigh: Sorry, better pose for a few pictures
Charlie: Oh, your king fell over, how sad, I win
Sofia: *babbles incoherently*
Kayleigh: You want a selfie as well
Charlie: Me too
The plumbing curse has struck and taken out the dishwasher as well. Kayleigh is busy boosting her fame so calls someone to take care of it. Then the school calls. Reece skipped class because a friend was crying. Kayleigh tells them to let him know to tell the teacher next time rather than not show.
After school Reece and Carson volunteer at a beach cleanup. Harvey, having finished his fishing shift, goes for another picturesque run. Back home Reece has chores to do. He confronted some bullies during the beach clean up but ended up getting in to a fight instead of helping. Stupid bullies.
Carson finishes his homework in a timely fashion so is allowed to invite his friends around to hangout. They spend the time goofing off, catching up and of course, playing video games. Reece thinks they make far too much noise but his parents are too occupied in their bedroom to care about it.
Samir: You'll have to speak up, there's too much background noise
Reece: So I said, don't make fun of his speed, then the jerk swings for me
Samir: I'm coming over
Reece: I'm okay now
Samir: But you weren't
Reece: I guess so, but I can hold my own in a fight. We're a family of scrappers really
(When Keira was in HS she got into a fight with a girl who flirted with her gf, and Charlie antagonised a few people with her endless sarcasm)
Reece: You look glummer than I do
Samir: I'm so sorry
Reece: Whatever for
Samir: I should have been there. I would have protected you
Reece: That's very sweet but look, I don't even have bruises
Samir: This time. What was his name
Reece: You know, I didn't stop to ask, I was busy
Samir: He's lucky
Samir: If I'd been there-
Reece: Hey, don't go there. What's past is past
Samir: I always forget how generous you are
Reece: If you want we could go upstairs and I'll show you how generous I can really be
Samir: You're trying to distract me
Reece: That and I think you're really hot
Samir: *chuckles*
Samir makes sure Reece lets him know where he was hit before they get stuck in. He would hate to hurt Reece any more. He's still mad he wasn't there to harm those who hurt Reece. What do you know, a long make out session is just what the doctor ordered. Reece lets Samir take the lead, relaxing.
Reece spends a lot of time in his own head. He's a teen and a genius with a million cogs turning. He can let go when all he has to do is focus on Samir and what he's asked to do. He likes Samir being in control, he knows Samir sees him as important. Too soon however Samir says they need to sleep.
Reece has a quick workout before class begins. It's art this morning, not his favourite. That doesn't matter too much though as his confidence is through the roof today.
Tamika: You look happy
Reece: Yeah, my boyfriend makes me happy
Tamika: Wish I had a guy like that
Alfonso: I'm here
Tamika: Nope
*ALARM*
Paris: Not another bloody fire drill
Noe: At least it's not raining
Paris: We still have to go out there don't we
The students pour out of the building, amassing at the road.
Principal: Is this really necessary
Firefighter: Yes. There's a reason for the phrase, spreads like wildfire
Deanna: At least it didn't happen during science
Reece: I know
Paris: I like art, we get to doodle without getting in trouble
Deanna: So how's the boyfriend
Reece: Really good
Paris: TMI
Reece: I didn't mean in that way. He makes me happy
Deanna: I knew it would work out
Paris: No, she was worried
After school the boys do their homework together. While Reece leaves for football practice Carson takes another bike around the island, practicing his tricks. Reece is doing some post practice swimming when Samir texts to invite him out on a date. As soon as he arrives Samir sweeps him in to a kiss.
Reece: I'm certainly not complaining but what was that for
Samir: I had a rough day
Reece: Rougher than your stubble beefcake? I regretted that nickname before it was even out of my mouth
Samir: *chuckles* points for trying
Reece: When can I cash in these points
Samir: In good time. Come inside

Foster Household: Chapter 7, Part 3
Carson is an eavesdropping twerp. No, wait. Reece speaks too loud. I'm sorry, I'm getting conflicting reports. Either way Reece let his boyfriend sleep over and Carson let their parents know.
In this part Reece faces his parents who have an unexpected response to his new relationship (it's not homophobia guys, his parents are both pan). The family have a lazy Sunday before inviting their grown up kids and their partners over for a BBQ.
Samir: How much trouble have I gotten you in
Reece: It really shouldn't be much. I mean my parents are the definition of open minded
Samir: I wasn't invited
Reece: I invited you to stay. I count
Samir: You do. But you're 16
Reece: Which is the age of consent in a lot of places
Reece: It's not like you let me do anything anyway
Harvey: Hello again Samir
Samir: Hello Mr Foster
Reece: Dad I-
Harvey: Sit down Reece
Reece: Where's mum
Harvey: Sorting your brother out
Reece: He had to have been eavesdropping to hear anything
Harvey: Let’s not worry about his behaviour now
Harvey: Ignoring for now what may or may not have been happening in your room, his being able to hear is an issue, he's only 11
Samir: I-
Reece: So I can't talk in my own room-
Harvey: If you'll let me finish
Reece: Sorry dad
Harvey: We need to redo the top floor layout to fix this issue
Reece: Wait, what?
Harvey: It'll get remodeled. We're basically going to rearrange everything to hopefully decrease how much noise carries
Samir: Why
Reece: Because he's on my side, aren't you dad
Harvey: It's not about sides. It's about being able to live together while maintaining boundaries
Harvey: Watcher knows I don't want him hearing me and your mum either. He's a kid
Kayleigh: But you're not
Reece: So, I need to make better decisions
Kayleigh: You need to make safe decisions
Reece: Hold on, you're going to give me a woohoo talk? In front of my boyfriend?
Samir: *nervous laughter*
Kayleigh: Did your school teach you about queer woohoo
Reece: Well... no
Kayleigh: Then yes we are having this talk
Harvey: Since you seem to be considering it. Remember, I've slept with my share of men
Reece: Kill me now
Samir: Your parents care
Reece: Do you or are you just wanting to control me
Harvey: What you do with your body is your business. We just want you to be safe without unwelcome surprises or consequences
The group discuss safe woohoo, and while Reece is desperate for the couch to swallow him up, Samir seems glad for the chance to ask questions and to make a good impression.
Reece: Please tell me that hasn't put you off the idea of woohooing me forever
Samir: All in good time. It was good to have some knowledge that didn't come from the internet
Reece: Internet information exists
Samir: Believe me, I know
Reece: I'm just going to need you to say you still like me
Samir: *chuckles* I like you very much
Reece: And you want to woohoo me
Samir: Blondie-
Reece: Because I want to
Samir: You say many places have 16 as the age of consent
Reece: Yes
Samir: Many don't
Reece: Spoilsport
Samir: We can still have fun with our clothes on
Reece: Does that include shirts
Samir: Sometimes. You know how I keep my words short
Reece: I have noticed
Samir: I have plenty of things I want to whisper to you, so be a good boy, and maybe you'll hear them
Reece: That sounds better
Samir: I have to go, mum will be wanting to do birthday things
Reece: I can do birthday things
Samir: You'll have to tell me about them another time
Reece: Bye sexypants
Samir: What?
Reece: Just trying out my own nicknames
Samir: *chuckles* You're lucky I- *sighs* I'll see you soon
Reece watches Samir go. He doesn't know what Samir wants to do with his life but he's glad it can include him
Harvey: We didn't overstep did we
Kayleigh: Samir didn't seem to think so
Harvey: At least one of them listened
Kayleigh: I've never seen Reece take up so little space
Harvey: I know
Kayleigh: You know, upstairs is finished now
Harvey: It is
Kayleigh: Want to go check it out, test drive the set up
Harvey: Where are the kids
Kayleigh: Carson is still out beachcombing and Reece is napping
Harvey: I guess there's only one way to make sure the soundproofing worked
Of course clumsy Harvey trips over his own feet while heading upstairs. Nevertheless the couple are glad of the opportunity for time alone.
The rest of discovery day passes in a blur. One tradition is to travel so we went to the main island for some swinging, snorkelling and beach combing. Apparently there was a festival on because they unlocked attendance milestones, all I know is there were lots of sims sunbathing and castle building
Back home and Reece needs another nap, I guess he spent too much of the night cuddling and not enough time sleeping. Harvey takes some time to go fish, no new species today. The sun begins to set and we invite the other Foster kids and their partners over for a BBQ. I am in love with the lighting.
Harvey starts on the grilling while everyone catches up
Carson: She's so tiny
Charlie: She'll get bigger, right Clover
Clover: *barks*
Reece: Thank the watcher Allie is still alive
Allie: *barks happily*
Reece: Who's a good girl huh
Charlie: I mean I'm alive as well
Reece: But you're not fluffy
Reece: Do you still recognise me, I'm a bit bigger now
Marta: She used to live with you
Keira: With all of us, but she was always Charlie's
...
Kayleigh: You have to stay there forever?
Charlie: I don't have to, I want to. Me and Kaori are a pair and if that means staying in the snow, so be it
Kaori: Is it done yet
Harvey: Do they not teach patience in Mt Komorebi. The char has to be just right to caramelise
Keira: I think you're just right
Marta: Very smooth
Keira: How's this for smooth
A kiss at sunset, romantic Marta approves.
Harvey: It's ready! Come and get it everyone
Obligatory group photo for the walls. Left to right... Back row: Kayleigh Foster, Charlie Nishidake (eldest), Harvey Foster, Carson Foster, Reece Foster. Middle row: Kaori Nishidake, Clover Nishidake (camoflague queen), Allie Nishidake. Front row: Keira Foster, Marta Romero.
The family have fun catching up but again Reece needs a nap. The family stay together for a few more hours then the women have to head home. Kayleigh decides to begin a series of Sulani portraits. She has a good start, the one she begun before dinner is masterpiece level. Time to begin another.
I thought about inviting Samir over to spend the night with Reece, but decided nah. There's been so much Reece and Samir, people will wonder if the rest of the family actually exists. THEN this man invited himself over at 12:30am, standing at the front door, so how could I not invite him in?
Reece: Hey shoulders
Samir: Another nickname
Reece: Yeah that doesn't work, I'm gonna keep trying and find one eventually
Samir: Good boys do keep trying
Reece: It's late, I thought you had birthday stuff
Samir: I kept my other commitments, that just leaves you
Reece: Want to come inside then
Samir: Ladder
Reece: This way guarantees no one will hear us
Samir: Parents
Reece: Painting and fishing out there somewhere
Samir: Brother
Reece: Asleep on the other side of the house
Samir: Double bed
Reece: I got an upgrade. Can I hear some of the whisper things now, please

Foster Household: Chapter 7, Part 2
Reece, disliking pop music, has opted to skip prom. His crush Samir is a loner so Reece asked him if he wanted to skip prom together. The answer was yes! The last time Reece kissed Samir, he ran away. But Reece is nothing if not determined.
In this part Reece leaves Samir in no doubt of how he feels, and finds out why Samir has been keeping him at arms length.
Seven on the dot and Reece arrives at the Copperdale park with Samir
Samir: Quieter than prom
Reece: It is pretty peaceful here
Samir: You make it peaceful
Reece: How can you say that
Samir: *shrugs*
Reece: I mean... It's not fair of you to say it
Samir: Why not
Reece: You're not leaving the closet
Samir smiles and bursts into laughter while Reece pouts and sits down.
Reece: Go on, laugh at my feelings
Samir: Oh blondie, I'm not laughing at your feelings, I'm laughing at the idea of me being closeted
Reece: Why
Samir: I jumped out of the closet as you call it when I was 12
Reece: You... what?
Samir: There was this cute boy in the grade below me. Let's just say he didn't appreciate my advances and I had to explain to my mum why I got a black eye
Reece: But...
Samir: What?
Reece: If you don't mind people knowing you're gay, why did you run away when I kissed you
Samir: Oh blondie...
Samir: It's complicated
Reece: Because I'm right here, with feelings for you, that's complicated?
Samir: I didn't run away because I didn't like you, I ran away because I like you
Reece: I'm a genius. Can safely say that makes no sense
Samir: You're so cute when you're thinking
Reece: Don't do that!
Samir slides closer.
Samir: Don't do what
Reece: Flirt with me when I'm mad at you
Samir: So you'd like me to stop flirting with you
Reece: Yes! Wait, no!
Samir: See how it can be complicated
Reece: Don't use your hotness to make a point
Samir: I can't just switch it off
Reece: Answer the question
Samir: Say please
Reece: Stop being such a tease
Samir: I told you, I like watching you squirm
Reece: Give me a hint
Samir: Fine. Aspirations
Reece: Aspirations? Your aspiration told you to ditch me?
Samir: No. I just don't know that mine... is compatible with yours
Reece: Can't we try
Samir: Or what
Reece: Or I'll be forced to splash you
Samir: Go on then
*Splashes*
Samir: Feel better
Reece: Yes
Samir: Can you take what you dish out
*splashes*
Reece: Mercy
Samir: You'll need a better safe word than that
Reece: *blushes*
Samir: Come, lets talk somewhere comfier
Reece and Samir move from the fountain over to the outdoor cinema area. No movie is on tonight with it being prom night but there are a few sims scattered around watching TV in the starlight.
Samir: Popcorn?
Reece: The popcorn machine
Samir: Food poisoning
*phone chime*
Reece: Who's that
Samir: Why
Reece: I thought everyone was busy at prom
Samir: Nah. Kanikawi turned 18 yesterday
Reece: But you turn 18 tomorrow
Samir: Yeah, and
Reece: How are you and your brother closer in age than pregnancy length
Samir: We got adopted by mum, we're not bio related to her
Reece: Oh, sorry, I didn't mean-
Samir: It's fine blondie. I mean, it's not fine that my parents were killed and I was too young to deserve answers and I had to live in the foster home until mum came along and got me... But you knowing is fine
Reece: Wow. That must be the longest amount of time I have ever heard you speak for
Samir: I guess I'm not a big talker. I like hearing you talk though
Reece: Well now you need to talk
Samir: Did you not hear my paragraph
Reece: *laughs* I did, but I need to know what you mean by aspirations not being compatible
Samir: You want to be this Zen Guru
Reece: And you want...
Samir: Something else
Reece: Look, does it involve more than one romantic partner
Samir: *laughs* no, it does not
Reece: Involve killing anyone
Samir: Where are you getting these ideas
Reece: I'm just saying, maybe your dream doesn't have to be as big of an obstacle to a relationship as you think
Samir: Do you want a relationship from me blondie
Reece: Of course I do. Among, you know, other things
Samir: I don't know-
Reece: I like you Samir. And unless I'm mistaken, you like me. Why can't we just leave our aspirations aside for now and see if we, as sims, fit together. Because I think we do
Samir: You don't mind
Reece: Keep your secret if it means so much, I wont pry
Samir: But we can... progress
Reece: I'd like that
Samir: You sure blondie? I can be more demanding than you know
Reece: We genius sims can follow instructions
Samir: Don't laugh then
Reece: Wh-
*TICKLE ATTACK*
Before Reece can catch his breath Samir pulls him up into a frenzied kiss. Reece has been dreaming of this since he first kissed Samir and quickly becomes lost in the embrace.
Samir: Hold tight
Reece: Woah! How can you lift me? I do actually have muscles now
Samir: Maybe, but I have more blondie
Reece: So we're agreed, no more ignoring my advances
Samir: Definitely not
The two kiss some more before Reece realises Samir is trying to talk to him again.
Reece: Mmm what
Samir: I need you to know something
Reece: But do I need to know it right this second because my mouth is kind of busy
Samir: Yes
Reece: I'm listening
Samir: With your ears
Reece: Yep
Samir: I'm going to tell you one day, but until then, if we're together, you need to know I'll look after you
Reece: What do you mean
Samir: I can't have you going around thinking I'm stringing you along. I'm committed to this relationship okay
Reece: I could stay here kissing you, well forever, but we do basically have the pier to ourselves until prom lets out
Samir: Oh yeah
Reece: It won't be crowded. So, could we maybe...
Samir: Is this conversation going to end in cuddle carts
Reece: Yep. Pretty please
Samir: *laughs* fine blondie
So the two boys check out the tunnel of love. It goes very well, I guess Samir really is more relaxed with less people around.
Reece can't resist pulling him in to the pier's photo booth for a quick romantic photo to commemorate the day. Then it's time to head home before teens flood the pier.
Reece: You might not fit
Samir: You wont know if we don't try
Reece: My parents should be asleep by now but Carson's a light sleeper
Samir: Then follow and be quiet blondie
The two head upstairs and climb in to bed to sleep. They have to try a few different configurations but manage to drift off
The next morning dawns and with it Reece is 16 and Samir has reached 18, meaning he's aged up to a YA. After a quick shower Reece takes a moment to watch Samir sleep, still only half believing the guy he was stressing about yesterday is sleeping on his bed. And wants Reece the way Reece wants him.
Unwilling to wake Samir, Reece grabs his journal and begins recounting all the details of last night.
Samir: Blondie
Reece: Shh, go back to sleep, it's early
Samir: Then why are you up
Reece: I don't want to forget anything
Samir: Come here if you need a reminder
Reece: I don't need a reminder
Samir: Maybe I need one
Reece: What my boyfriend wants, he shall get
Samir: *chuckles*
Reece: Are you okay? I know my bed is small-
Samir: It's comfier when you're here
Reece: Don't make me messy, I just showered
Samir: And you look good
Reece: And you look stubbly
Samir: That's not a word
Reece: I think it is. I can't believe I have a manly man in my bed
Samir: I'm the same me. Bit hungrier
Reece: You should have had the popcorn
Samir: Food poisoning
Reece: *laughs* So you say
Carson: MUM! REECE HAS SOMEONE IN HIS ROOM, I CAN HEAR HIM LAUGHING!
Reece: Oh that little twerp!

Foster Household: Chapter 7, Part 1
I swear last time I played this household Reece wasn't as muscular. I have no idea what he's been doing in the background to achieve this.
In this part Reece and Carson bicker like only brothers can, I reacquaint myself with how beautiful Sulani is even when it's cloudy, and Reece considers skipping prom.
Back in Sulani, a place I think makes every landscape photo beautiful by default. It's been a minute since I've checked in with the Fosters. I have seasons set to 4 weeks each and play each household for a week. Last time I was with these guys was Winter, it's late Autumn now.
Kayleigh has mastered the painting skill and is working on advancing in the painting career. Her side project is getting masterpiece quality versions of all classic paintings. Well, my side project. Her current aspiration is earning a truckload of simoleons.
Harvey will be turning 60 this rotation 😲 Luckily he wont be an elder until 65. He's still working on catching every fish in game, and perfecting his garden. He would love some grandkids but I don't think that'll be happening anytime soon.
Carson, Carson, Carson. Once again I got distracted by side plots last chapter and forgot to mark Carson turning 10. He's a preteen now and after already completing several aspirations is having some time being a playful kid while he still can.
Last up, Reece. Best friend to Deanna, he's harbouring a crush on football teammate Samir. Reece got up the nerve to kiss him, only for Samir to run off. Since then though they've been able to get back to being friends. Well, friends who flirt a heck of a lot more than platonic friends do.
Harvey starts off Saturday right, making some pancakes to stock up the fridge.
Harvey: Come eat!
Carson: I'm doing laundry, you should raise my allowance
Harvey: You don't get an allowance
Carson: Well I should
Harvey: Just come eat. You too Reece
Reece: What's the point
Harvey: I'm not following
Reece: Why eat when I'm just going to die alone
Harvey: You know nothing of the kind
Carson: He will because no one likes him
Reece: Shut up twerp
Carson: You shut up
Harvey: Boys! Stop fighting
Reece: He started it
Carson: You started it with your stupid whining. "Oh I'm so pathetically stupid"
Reece: I'm a genius
Carson: Says no one. You probably will die alone
Reece: And you'll die when the monster under your bed gets hungry
Harvey: I'm getting too old for this nonsense
Carson: There's not really a monster under my bed, is there?
Kayleigh: There is not, don't listen to your brother
Harvey: You get along with your sisters, why not your brother
Reece: My sisters never read my diary
Carson: I told you! I overheard you on the phone because you speak loud
Kayleigh: Reece it's time to move on
Reece: But he hasn't even apologised
Carson: I'm not apologising for having ears that work
Kayleigh: Are you ready for prom
Reece: You're changing the subject
Harvey: Parent's privilege, are you?
Reece: I don't know, it's just a pop music fest that stresses me out
Kayleigh: You know you don't have to go
Reece: But you paid for my ticket
Kayleigh: It wont break the bank
Reece: Everyone at school goes
Kayleigh: It's up to you but you don't have to do a thing just because everyone else does it
Reece: Okay, I'll do my yoga and meditate on it
Carson: Later loser
Reece: Dweeb
Kayleigh: And what are your plans for today
Carson: Iggy is busy so I might just bike around
Kayleigh gets started on finishing off paintings she began between chapters. Carson took two steps outside and got freaked out by how deep the ocean looked. So we compromised and he went swimming in the pool while Harvey began his daily run around sandy beaches.
Carson: How deep is the ocean
Kayleigh: I have no idea
Carson: Doesn't that scare you mum
Kayleigh: I wouldn't have moved here if it did
Meanwhile Harvey experiments with some running on water. The sand is right over there but apparently running in ankle deep water is too tempting.
After his yoga Reece gets an idea of what to do.
Reece: Can you come over
...
Lilith: Are we here to practice or for you to keep checking your phone
Reece: Sorry. I wanted to ask, have you been to all your proms
Lilith: Do I look like I care about prom
Reece: So no
Lilith: No Reece, I haven't, why
Reece: Do you think many other teens think like you
Lilith: No idea, but I'm a YA tomorrow so who even cares anymore
Reece: Because for straight people prom seems to be like, the thing
Lilith: What are you getting at, you're not trying to ask me to prom are you
Reece: No! I mean you're nice but-
Reece: Watcher damn it
Lilith: Ship, sorry, I slipped
Reece: It's fine. I didn't need my face anyway
Lilith: Har har
Reece: Like I was saying, I'm gay
Lilith: Breaking news! Obvious guy states the obvious!
Reece: Wait, you knew
Lilith: Dude you drool over Samir like five times I day
Reece: I don't!
Lilith: Keep telling yourself that bub
Reece: I don't actually drool, do I
Lilith: It's called a metaphor, doesn't your genius ass recognise that
Reece: Has Samir told you I drool
Lilith: OMW are we here to gossip or practice football? Convince me I'm not leaving the team to someone who can't catch
Reece: Come on, give me a hint
Lilith: I don't get involved in other people's business alright
Reece: I don't want to know everyone's business, just...
Lilith: Oh this is painful. If you want to know if he cares about prom, just ask him. For now, I know it's off season but keep up the practice dude
Kayleigh and Carson set off from home about the same time to take in the island views. Carson doesn't bother changing out of his swimwear, confident he wont get sunburned. Kayleigh hopes the scenic beaches can inspire her next masterpiece, she's so close to her next celebrity level.
Reece: Hey
Samir: Sup blondie
Reece: You know how prom is full of blaring pop music
Samir: And people, don't forget the people
Reece: Right. I was wondering if you maybe... wanted to... skip prom... with, with me
Samir: Skip prom with you?
Reece: It was just an idea
Samir: Meet you at the park at 7
Garden tended, run complete, fridge stocked. Harvey can now take some time to himself to work on his fish collection. He heads for his canoe only to discover someone parked their jetski in a stupid place, boxing him in. It takes some careful navigating, and me deleting the jetski, for him to pass.
Kayleigh has begun work on another painting, hopefully we can sell this one. Out a sea Harvey feels a tug on his line and stands up to reel it in. Turns out it's a mahi mahi. Harvey has room in his aquariums for this catch.
Reece: Hey mum, I've been thinking, I don't know what I want to be after high school
Kayleigh: That's not uncommon
Reece: Everyone else seems to have it sorted
Kayleigh: If you pick something you like, you wont go wrong
Reece: I'll probably be out late tonight
Kayleigh: At prom?
Reece: not exactly
Deanna: You can't just text someone "won't be at prom tonight 💀"
Kayleigh: Reece? Are you giving everyone heart attacks
Reece: I'm skipping prom... with Samir
Kayleigh: Cute!
Reece: Mum
Kayleigh: I mean, how mature
Deanna: Good thing we got photos last time. Good luck tonight dude
Reece: Back at ya

Villareal Household: Chapter 4, Part 6
Luna has figured out why she's having trouble bonding with her sons. Luckily she has a wonderful wife whose constantly cheerful attitude can brighten the day. Her sons have definitely inherited Devin's drama skills.
TW Deals with postpartum depression
In this part Devin and Luna work on not putting too much on Luna's plate, too bad the twins can't understand the assignment. The boys are dramatic (they're teething who can blame them) and Devin completes her first movie gig as the star actress.
p.s. If you're wondering wtf some of the words they say are, and like google translate like I do, Devin is Italian, Luna is German, and the infants only speak garble atm
Postpartum depression. The reason Luna has been feeling like an inadequate mother, had trouble bonding with her sons and gets easily upset when the boys get over emotional. No depression is solved overnight but knowing what is affecting her will help her and her family cope with the speedbump.
Rilian: ba nu do
Alfred: *snores*
Rilian is awake first and annoyed Alfred is still sleeping. He spots the bigfoot toy and has a sulk about not reaching it.
Devin: Buongiorno caro
Rilian: ga la doo
Devin: Are you babbling? Well done Rilian
Scooping him up Devin begins feeding him while Alfred wakes
Alfred: *wails*
Luna: This is so dirty
Devin: When you finish do you want to feed Alfred
Luna: I don't know...
Alfred: *wails*
Devin: It might help to know you can soothe him
Luna: What if I make it worse
Devin: Trust me, you won't, he's already shrieking, can't get much worse
Luna: Okay then, milk
Luna: Good morning schnuki
Devin: You got it Lu
Luna: Are you hungry? Do you want some milk? I made this myself, I promise
Alfred: *guzzles*
Luna: He's actually drinking my milk
Devin: Magical right? Okay Riian let's-
Rilian: *spits up*
Devin: Oh dear watcher, please let that not be in my hair
Devin: Let's change this
Rilian: *cries*
Devin: Oh piccolo, that can't have been fun to get out
Luna: What do I do now
Devin: Over the shoulder and burp
Luna: Come on Alfred, lets get some air out
Alfred: *spits up*
Devin: At least your hair is tied back
Luna: Tell me where the wipes are please
Devin: Who's all ready for tasting time
Rilian: Ga boo mi
Devin: Want to swap and I'll do that diaper
Luna: No I should try
Devin: Amore mio, Rome wasn't born in a day
Luna: I know but how bad can-
Alfred: *pees everywhere*
Luna: Disgusting
Devin: Try think of it as, he's marking you as his
Luna: 🙄
Devin: Let's start on tasting while mummy and Alfred get cleaned up
Rilian: Ta loo bu
Devin: You weren't sure about the banana slices so let's try them again. I know you're cautious caro but we need to be brave
Rilian: ca bo na boo *scoffs*
Devin: It looks like you love them! Well done being brave
Luna: Finally done
Devin: Good job Lu
Luna: How's Rilian
Devin: It seems he loves banana
Luna: Good
Devin: Did everything go okay
Luna: We're clean and Alfred is in his day outfit. We did pick pretty cute hats huh
Devin: You bet we did! They're so adorable!
Luna: Did I hear Rilian babble
Devin: Yes
Luna: They're so big already
Devin: Their hair is definitely getting fuller under their hats
Luna: Alfred, schnucki, can you try banana again for mummy
Alfred: *nibbles*
Devin: Come on caro
Rilian: Ga la du
Alfred: *smiles and scoffs*
Luna: Looks as if he likes banana too
Alfred: *giggles*
Devin: Where's mama
Rilian: ka goo
Devin: Here I am
Rilian: *WAILS*
Devin: Oh duck I broke him
Alfred: *WAILS*
Devin: Did he just... cry in solidarity??? Hey Lu, at least you didn't cause both of them to cry hysterically
Luna: Shush darlings, shush now
Devin: Mama won't do that again Rilian, promise
Alfred: *plays with food*
Devin: Thank the watcher he's settled
Luna: That crying because Rilian did... that was creepy
Rilian: *wails*
Luna: I didn't mean you were creepy
Devin: Calm down piccolo mio, you're okay
Rilian: *sniffles*
Luna: Mummy is sorry. Mummy loves you
Rilian: *smiles* ha la doo
Luna has a lecture she needs to prepare for so makes use of the hallway mirror. Meanwhile Devin puts both boys down in the lounge. They get themselves sleeping and she watches over their naps while knitting. Knitting helps focus her before heading to set.
Social media updates, check. Hair and make up, check. Costume, check. Practice lines till she's feeling confident AF, check. Devin is on set for Melodies of the City. It's her first movie gig and we're pretty excited about it. If she gets gold that will be her lifetime aspiration complete.
Devin: You're Levi right
Levi: In the flesh
Devin: I'm-
Levi: I know who you are, who do you think hired you
Devin: I just want to thank you so much for this opportunity
Levi: You've earned this. Your death in Residency of the Heart left me in tears
Devin: Really?
Levi: One of the best guest stars
Devin: That's so kind of you to say
Levi: I'm excited to have you on this
Pearl: Enough chatter, we have a schedule
Devin: Right, I'll just go eat then
Heading to the food Devin takes a moment to call and check in on Luna. It's a little hard to hear her over the noise on set but she sounds okay
Emily: What the-
Devin: I went to the toilet and when I went to put my costume back on it changed to this
Emily: Watcher help us
Devin: Oh gosh did I miss anything
Levi: You're right on time, we're about to start
Pearl: Places everyone!
Levi: You all have the skills... let's commit them to film!
It is raining inside and Devin is freaked out about what it will do to her hair, until she remembers she's in a wig. She tries to ignore the water and launches into the first dance sequence, tiktok eat your heart out! She has a few scenes with her first costar, launching herself fully in to the hug.
Next up, her first solo song. Despite her initial trouble finding the rhythm, she manages to keep on beat for the sequence.
Connor: Nice job
Devin: Aww schucks
Connor: They've made me blonde again
Devin: I saw, what's wrong with the brunette
Connor: Not leading man style I guess
Devin: Unbelieveable
After her first lot of scenes with Connor, Devin has another dance sequence to complete. It's a good thing she's confident as all eyes on set are on her! She follows the music, nails her moves, and throws in a few extra to be fancy. Dance achieved!
Connor: Ready to flirt up a storm
Devin: Born ready
ACTION
Devin and Connor begin the scene, infusing their characters with romance and chemistry. When it came to the kiss Devin took the lead, something she and Connor had decided would work earlier. From the claps in the studio, they were right.
Levi: That's a wrap everyone!
Devin: Must not forget the selfie
Connor: *sighs*
Devin: Cheer up. You were good in that
Connor: Why wont they let me be my natural colour
Devin: One day mate, now get in the frame
Connor: The lights are off
Devin: Who cares, we're documenting this achievement
The day is done and the results are in. Devin scores gold for her acting in this film. She has achieved her Master Actress aspiration!
Devin: Lu I did it
Luna: I knew you could
Devin: I just have to get out of costume then I'll be home
Luna: We can't wait to see you, can we *distant infant noises*
Following dinner it's more tasting time for the boys. Rilian likes carrot and Alfred loves it! Then I commit the worst crime, I feed them applesauce. They dislike it, I am an abomination! How did these boys get Devin's drama already? After the utter betrayal it's cuddles and time for bed.
Luna: Night night darlings
Devin: Time for sleep for you two and your floppy hair
Luna: Your ma came over
Devin: She did
Luna: She took the boys to the park while I studied, it was nice
Devin: That's good
Luna: Did you mention my-
Devin: I didn't, I wasn't sure if you wanted me to
Luna: Joey did😅

Villareal Household: Chapter 4, Part 5
Luna is having some trouble bonding with the boys so Devin is trying her best to find ways she can have positive interactions with them.
TW Deals with postpartum depression
In this part Luna gets some downtime while working from home. She and Devin have fun trying out different foods with the boys.
Quick diaper changes and I get ambitious. Will Devin be able to carry one twin in the back carrier and one in her arms, meaning only one trip to the nursery? It works! Alfred got picked up first since he was fussing but unfortunately this means Rilian gets put to bed first. Alfred is displeased.
Devin: Lullabies for everyone. Are we good
Rilian: *self soothes*
Alfred: *fusses*
Devin: Oh piccolo mio, it's okay. I know you were awake for a little bit long weren't you. I'm sorry. But now you get to have a nice long sleep
Returning to the kitchen Devin makes some meatballs to put in the fridge.
Luna wakes up feeling tense and uncomfortable. Seems she has too much milk on board. I was looking for moodlets as she slept to indicate if I had to wake her early but nothing showed up. Cancel her action queue, it's time to do some pumping.
Devin: Good morning amore
Luna: Is it
Devin: What's up Lu
Luna: I'm sore
Devin: How about you take the day off work, have a proper relax day
Luna: I'll take a day off but because I didn't finish my prep task. Maybe I could try working from home some days
Devin: You can do that?
Luna: Pretty sure
Devin: Do you want me to keep the boys out of your hair
Luna: No, I don't want to miss their milestones
Devin: They're asleep now but we could try some food with them later
Luna: That sounds fun
Devin: Yeah
Luna: It does. Hopefully it'll help
Devin: We're going to get through this Lu, I promise
For her next acting gig Devin has to research the playful emotion so bubble bath it is. She has fun splashing around despite having no rubber duck. Luna goes to garden but her workaholic nature is making her feel tense. Who is doing her work today? Are they doing it better than her?
Devin finds Luna amidst the fruit trees. She begins her jokes and silly behaviour. Luna being a childish sim loves it. Devin can see her wife is feeling tense so offers her a back massage to try help.
Luna: Thanks schatz
Devin: Anytime
Luna: I'm going to go write that paper now
Devin: Good luck
Joey: Yo what up sis
Devin: Puddles everywhere
Joey: Stupid plumbing. You guys all good
Devin: We're...
Luna: Working through it
Devin: It's an adjustment but we're doing it together
Luna: *mouths* thank you
Devin: How are you, finished that degree yet
Joey: There was a glitch, watcher is sorting it
Devin: Wake up Alfred, it's milk time
Alfred: *yawns*
Devin: You're so cute. Now mummy made this milk just for you so drink up.
Alfred: *suckles*
Devin: I wish there was something we could do to help all the gas, it must be so sore
Alfred: *burps*
Devin: Guess we could always do more of that
Devin: Wake up Rilian, your turn *puts Alfred down*
Alfred: *fusses in utter betrayal*
Rilian: *grumpy fussing*
Devin: There there piccolo mio, we have some nice milk from mummy today
While Rilian drinks up Alfred begins scooting around the edges of the cribs towards the large animal in the corner.
Alfred regards the bigfoot stuffy with interest. He's not sure what it is but he likes the pretty colours. Rilian gets the first diaper and outfit change while Alfred keeps looking about. Then Devin scoops Alfred up for the same. Eventually we're ready to try more food.
Luna: I'm still so tense
Devin: That's the workaholic in you, but work will survive a day without you
Alfred: *looks quizzically*
Luna: What shall we try then
Devin: Ice cream
Luna: Right before naps, are you sure
Devin: It's not so much about them eating as trying new things
Luna: Here goes nothing
Luna: Open up schnucki
Alfred: *whimpers*
Devin: Keep going Lu
Luna keeps working on feeding Alfred while Devin is busy with Rilian. He's unsure about ice cream.
Luna: *laughing*
Devin: What did I miss
Luna: He loved it. He's such a mess
Devin: I think Rilian is heading in the same messy direction
Devin: Amore take some photos! You can look at them at work
Luna: Can I do that?
Devin: I'm not saying blackmail them with them. If it's making you smile about them, that's another step in the right direction
Luna: You're right. Quick photos then
Devin: Smile bambinos
Luna: Now it's time to clean schnucki
All clean the boys get set down for naps on their playmats. The mats have been brought out so Luna can look at them occasionally while she works on her research paper. Lullabies music is on the stereo and soon enough the boys both fall asleep.
Devin has some time to work on her acting, she reaches level 9. Then she starts making some spaghetti for dinner. Luna hears when Alfred wakes up and sets about feeding him a bottle of milk. Rilian toots himself awake.
Luna: You go with mama
Alfred: *coos*
Devin: Down we go
Luna: Schnucki do you want some milk
Alfred: *coos quizzically*
Devin: Don't worry caro, after mummy is done she'll bring Rilian. After we eat you can try some more food
Luna: Doesn't that sound good huh
Alfred: coo ba boo
Devin: DID YOU HEAR
Luna: It sounded like-
Devin: It was a BABBLE! He babbled
Rilian: *coos*
Luna: Aw, Rilian is happy for him
Devin: Of course he is, Alfred just babbled
Luna: We must be doing something right
Rilian: *smiles*
Alfred: ca boo ba
Devin: Aw there he goes again
Luna: Well done schnucki
Devin: Here comes the pumpkin plane
Luna: Woosh, open the runway
Devin: Unsure about this too caro
Luna: Alfred likes it. Shall we do peas next
Devin: Rilian isn't sure if he should eat it or paint with it
Luna: Alfred is pulling yuck faces but he's still scoffing
Devin: Are you a little messy eater
Luna: I'm sure Alfred grabbed hold of the spoon then
Devin: You know Rilian did that earlier, let's try some finger foods
Luna: Good idea, I'll do some washing up
Both boys are unsure of banana slices, guess they need teeth first.
Luna: I think I need to pump, can you get them to bed for me schatz
Devin: I can. Say goodnight to mummy boys
Luna: Mummy loves you both, yes I do
While Luna pumps Devin gets the boys in their cribs.
Alfred: *cries* boo ba ba
Devin: I know you can't reach caro but it's time to go night night. Here you are Rilian, all snug
Alfred: *fusses*
Devin: Sleep well bambinos
Devin: You seemed better today
Luna: I felt a little better
Devin: You were actively praising the boys, laughing and smiling, I've missed that
Luna: Post partum depression is no joke
Devin: You looked it up then
Luna: Dr Google
Devin: Did that help
Luna: Knowing I'm not the only one who experiences-
Luna: -it, that helped. And your support
Devin: I'm here for whatever you need amore mio, we're partners
Luna: It might take a while but I think I'm past the worst of it
Devin: Even if you're not-
Luna: I know. But I am wanting to do something I haven't done in a while
Devin: You mean *giggles*

Villareal Household: Chapter 4, Part 4
Context: Devin has this parenting thing under her belt but Luna is having some difficulty juggling the twins. Devin is an actor so doesn't work every day. Luna meanwhile teaches at university.
TW: Deals with postpartum depression
In this part the infant twins experience many many milestones, but not all of them are good. Devin and Luna also discuss Luna's struggles bonding with the boys.
Devin: How were my bambinos
Luna: They were fine
Devin: And my wife
Luna: I'm okay
Devin: Night night Rilian. Amore you don't seem okay
Luna: I'm just not as happy as I thought I'd be
Devin: Let me put Alfred to sleep huh, maybe you need a break
Luna: Does that make me bad
Devin: It makes you human
Early next morning Alfred woke up angry.
Luna: Hey now, do you want to wake your brother with all that screaming
Alfred: *fusses*
Luna: Why do you cry at me all the time, I'm only trying to help
Alfred: *smiles*
Luna: That's better. How about some milk huh? I should have enough in me for you
Luna: He hates me
Devin: He woke up grumpy Lu
Luna: I better feed Rilian before work
Devin: Come up here caro, are you being your best self
Luna: He is not
Devin: Maybe work will help you, use your scholarly brain
Luna: I hope so
Devin: We'll have baths
Alfred: *wails*
Devin: You don't even know that word
Devin: Baths are fun
Alfred: *whines*
Devin: Don't start hating a thing you haven't tried. See all the bubbles caro
Alfred: *coos in interest*
Devin: This is how we get squeaky clean *squeaks duck*
Alfred: *coos happily*
Devin: You like the duck huh? He likes you to! He likes you to
Alfred: *coos*
On his mat Rilian has been busy playing with his toys. Suddenly the music starts, the sparkles begin. Rilian rolls over to his tummy all by himself. Now he can practice alone and is one step closer to sitting in a high chair.
Not to be outdone by his brother, as soon as Alfred is back on his playmat he gets his own sparkles and musical riff. Alfred can roll both ways now! Maybe we can get them sitting today. For now Rilian needs a bath, so gets a bubbly one just like his brother. He also loves the duck.
When both infants are having their midday naps Devin tends the garden for Luna. She's an indoor sim but she can tell Luna feels pressed for time lately. Weeding the garden is a way she can help. She also invites Connor over to practice some scenes for their next gig, a musical no less.
Devin: Formula time
Rilian: *coos*
Devin: That's it, have as much as you can then we'll get the bubbles out
Alfred: *coos*
Devin: No I haven't forgotten you
Rilian: *coos*
Devin: We're just getting fed before mummy gets home. Then we can try sit to impress her. Don't you want to make mummy happy
Luna: Playmats in the kitchen, what did I miss
Devin: We learned to turn ourselves all the way over
Luna: They did
Devin: Both of them. Now we're practicing sitting so you can feed them baby food
Luna: My milk-
Devin: You won't have to stress so much if they're eating soft food to
Luna: Thanks
Rilian takes a moment to make sure mama and mummy can see him before he twists himself into a sit
Luna: Oh schatz look
Devin: He's doing it
Luna: Aren't you clever Rilian
Rilian: *coos*
Devin: Want to feed him his first soft food
Luna: I would love that
Devin: Good
Luna: Come here schnucki, we'll eat
Devin: And we sit up like this
Alfred: *mind is blown*
Devin: Are you feeling any better after work
Luna: You were right, it was good to get out of the house and focus on something else. Does that make me a bad mum
Devin: No it doesn't. You're a workaholic, there's no laws against that amore
Luna: Here comes the avocado airplane
Rilian: *smiles*
Luna: He smiled at me
Devin: Because he loves you, both of them do
Luna: Open wide schnucki. Oh dear, he seems to be smearing it all over
Devin: It's not the end of the world, it's what infants do
Luna: He seems... unsure about it
Devin: Fair enough
Devin: It is his first food
Luna: Oh look at Alfred
Alfred wiggles about and manages to get himself seated.
Luna: Well done buddy
Devin: I knew you could do it caro
Luna: His grumpy seems to have cleared up
Devin: For now. If you can't handle his grumpy next time then give him to me and take a break
Luna: I feel bad not-*laughs*
Devin: What
Luna: He's making such a mess, it's adorable
Devin: Yes but you were saying
Luna: I should be able to handle his grumpy, you do
Devin: I didn't go through the ordeal of being pregnant and giving birth. Do what you need to not burnout. Okay Alfred, your turn
Luna: Does he like avocado
Devin: He does! Success
Luna: I worry I'm ruining this for you. The time with infants is supposed to be this wonderful bonding experience and I'm not feeling it. Maybe there's something wrong with me
Devin: Give it time amore mio, we're still getting to know them
Luna: I guess
Devin: If you feel like you need help, we'll get it, but it's not bizarre to need time to know them
Luna: They are pretty adorable
Devin: Alfred is officially a Messy Eater
Luna: So I can see
Devin: Oh wow it just went everywhere. If you need me to clean it-
Luna: I think cleaning clears my mind
Devin: Why the long face
*Horrendous noise*
Devin: Well poop poop and poop
Luna: OMW did he blowout his diaper
Devin: Blewout the diaper, blewout me
Luna: Disgusting
Devin: He's got gas problems. Plus I probably missed a diaper change earlier
Luna: You better give him another bath
Devin: Why not
Devin: Now we like baths, remember
Alfred: *coos happily*
Devin: That's it. Let's get nice and squeaky clean
Luna mops up the kitchen mess then goes to check on Devin.
Luna: Is he okay
Devin: He will be fine
Luna: I was meaning the poop was disgusting, not him
Devin: Lu he doesn't know words
Luna: So he doesn't hate me
Devin: Of course not. Here watch. Who's a poopy mcpoop face, huh? Is it you
Alfred: *coos happily*
Devin: Who's a yucky lump of poop
Alfred: *coos away*
Devin: It's fine amore
Luna: I'll put him to bed, you have a shower
Devin: You sure Luna: Oh you NEED a shower schatz
Luna scoops Alfred into her arms, cuddles him close, and gets him in bed.
Luna: I'll see you both in the night okay
Alfred: *coos*
Luna: I do love you both, just give mummy some time to adjust to having you on the outside
Alfred: *coos happily*
Luna: Sleep well babies
In the night, sometime between feedings and diaper changes, both boys get given rattles. It goes well. Both Alfred and Rilian have their first laughs at the sound of the rattles shaking away. Rilian even discovers he loves sounds, meaning he will want to play with the rattle more.
Forgot to mention both boys unlocked their grab milestone during the day, as I only saw what Rilian grabbed (his toes). Tonight they both unlock the foot in mouth milestone. What acrobatic little wigglers.
With Luna heading back to bed after feeding them the two boys spend some time smiling and cooing at each other. It would appear that Alfred being sensitive means he will make a fuss even when he's happy, it's giving me and Rilian a complex.
Devin gets up early and takes the boys to the kitchen while she fixes the busted sink. While Rilian is content to look around him Alfred throws a fuss.
Devin: I'll just be a few more minutes caro
Alfred: *fusses*
Devin: Have you two been awake too long huh
Rilian: *smiles*
Alfred: *blubbering*

Villareal Household: Chapter 4, Part 2
More Villareal drama, Devin is an actress after all. The newborns are home but things start to get rocky for Luna when she has trouble producing milk. Devin does her best to be supportive and their families visit for Harvestfest. At the end the boys become infants.
Context: The magic of game code allowed my two female sims to have biological twins. Again gameplay in this part would not be possible without the Child Birth Mod by PandaSama, specifically the lactation for Luna.
Saturday evening and we're all back home. Rilian is in the left bassinet in a blue onesie. Alfred is on the right in a green onesie. Both were lovingly knitted by nonna Calista. The skintones are throwing me off a bit, they don't seem to match either parent. Hopefully this changes on age up.
Luna's milk production doesn't seem to have started yet so she takes a cookie meant to help lactation before her nap. Devin finishes her nap and is delighted to find it wasn't all a dream, her sons are here. She calls Callista to tell her, and confirm they will still host Harvestfest tomorrow
Devin: I hope I didn't wake you
Luna: I needed to eat, why is my milk not coming in?
Devin: Amore every woman is different
Luna: I'll try pumping, hopefully I'll get something
Devin: Well hello Rilian. Come here, mama will feed you some nice formula while mummy works on her milk
Luna: *sighs sadly*
Devin: Hi there Alfred. Do you want some yummy formula huh
Luna: Nothing from that one, I'll try the other side
Devin: We can have formula in the meantime, can't we boys
Rilian: *wails*
Luna: It's my fault, he's hungry
Devin: Lu I just fed him, he can't be hungry
Luna: *sadly* mummy is trying
Luna: I don't know what I'm doing wrong
Devin: You're not doing anything wrong, Rilian just inherited my drama skills
Luna: I feel bad
Devin: Lu they'll survive if you can't produce milk
Luna: But they said breast is best
Devin: They also said leeches were an infallible cure
Luna: How do you know that word
Devin: TV
Luna: I'll have another cookie and try again
Devin: Just remember, they wouldn't make baby formula if it wasn't safe for babies to have
Luna tries again. She doesn't mind having a small chest but worries that's part of the problem with her milk supply.
Luna: SCHATZ! I got some
Devin: Well done Lu
Rilian: *Wails*
Devin: OMW I know you're not hungry yet
Luna: I'll give him some cuddles. Hey buddy, mummy is here
Rilian: *sniffs*
Luna: Next feed you'll have real milk, I promise. And so will you Alfred
Alfred: *blinks*
Luna: They're so perfect
And far too soon
Rilian: *wails*
Devin: Yep, you're hungry, got it
Luna: I'll try get some more milk
Devin: Are you sure you don't want to feed them
Luna: You do it, I need to try get our stock up
Devin: Lu you're not failing as a mum if you can't get breast milk
Luna: I wish it felt like that
Devin: How can I help
Luna: Keep buying the cookies
Devin: Lu-
Luna: I just want to try for a bit longer, please
Devin: You're the boss of your body, but they'll love you whether you're feeding them milk or formula, I promise
Luna scoops up each boy before heading back to bed, waiting on her milk.
Harvestfest is here! When Devin wakes up Luna is already busy trying to pump so she decides to take care of the morning chores. Sleep seems to have done Luna good and she's able to get two bottles ready for when her sons wake up.
After appeasing a gnome Devin thinks she can fit in a run before the boys wake up. Like normal she streams it to keep her fame up.
Paparazzi: Mrs Villareal! How are your babies? Can you confirm names
Devin: Good morning Ali. No comment
Ali: Understood
Devin: Have a good Harvestfest Ali
Ali: You to
Luna appeases the other gnomes and gets stuck into her gardening. She enjoys looking after the plants, especially her flowers harvested from the romance festival. It's so much easier to weed now that she doesn't have a bowling ball belly. Hopefully the gnomes will bring new seeds.
Luna tells Devin she's happy gardening so Devin does the next feed.
Devin: Can you taste a difference Alfred? Mummy worked extra hard on this for you
Rilian: *wails*
Devin: Yes she got some for you to caro
After a few extra cuddles Devin goes to practice the lines for her next gig tomorrow night.
Luna: Three, four- how many do we need
Devin: Uh my parents, my siblings, Deanna will probably bring Paris, your brothers, and your sister in law, oh and us, 11, may as well do the whole table
Rilian: *wails*
Luna: Sounds like a, change me now cry, I got him
*Doorbell*
Devin: I'll get that
Devin: Come and eat! Joey made this meal for us earlier
Joey: Because I'm the best brother
Kelly: And you wonder why I'm evil
Aaron: Where's Luna
Devin: Diaper emergency
Calista: I remember those
Paris: How are the- bambinos? Is that the right word
Deanna: *nods*
Devin: They're so small but lovely
Luna: They have Devin's eyes
Aaron: The hero returns
Joey: I knew you could push them out
Devin: She was amazing, it was such hard work
Hugo: Hard work sounds like my sister
Luna: I've missed you
Hugo: Sorry, work's hectic
Luna: Where's Max
Hugo: Where do you think, eating inside with Miriam
Hugo: Anything you need me to do
Luna: Can you produce milk
Hugo: Nope
Calista: Are you having trouble
Luna: I shouldn't complain really
Aaron: You should complain. When we had our kids I always told Calista-
Calista: Tell me everything even if I can't help
Hugo: I'll take these dishes
Luna: Thanks
Luna: I only get milk about half the time
Calista: Don't believe those blogger mums, substituting with formula is fine
Aaron: Joey got mostly formula
Joey: And I'm a genius remember
Luna: Think you'll have kids Miriam?
Miriam: Why would I want to be pregnant, looks shit
Devin: Ma, pa, you ready
Calista: We're coming
Devin: This is Alfred, he was born first. Alfred this is your nonna
Calista: Hello bambino
Luna: Then we have Rilian. Rilian this is your nonno
Aaron: Deanna and Kelly are pretty pale but these two might have them beat
Luna: We'll see when they're infants
Once everyone has left it's time. Luna and Devin get in position and manage to start the age up on the boys at the same time. Will I ever get sick of this animation? No, no I will not.
They're looking pretty identical. Quick makeover. Alfred is on the left. Since he had a green shirt on, green is his first favourite colour. He'll also have green socks for identification. Rilian had a yellow shirt so yellow will be his colour. He has blue socks for identification.
Alfred rolled the sensitive trait while Rilian rolled the cautious trait. Both boys have already unlocked their first smile milestone, smiling at their parents as soon as they aged up. First things first, some tummy time. The boys have to learn how to work their necks.
Alfred: *cries*
Devin: I feel so bad
Luna: Please stop crying boys
Devin: Mama is right here caro
Rilian: *lifts head*
Luna: Well done baby
Devin: Did you hear that Alfred. Don't you want to learn like your brother
Alfred: *lifts head*
Devin: Thank you, see you survived
Luna: We better get them down
Rilian sleeps easy enough but he gets sad about being put down. Turns out he has the Loves Being Held quirk. Alfred has more trouble. He has the Gassy quirk which makes his poor tummy sore. He also has the Frequently Hiccups quirk. Luckily Devin soothes him to sleep and kisses Rilian goodnight.

Villareal Household: Chapter 4, Part 1
Context: Luna and Devin were able to conceive despite both being female, the wonders of game code, and Luna is expecting twin boys.
PandaSama has the most amazing Child Birth Mod for sims 4 and this part would not be possible without it. So happy it exists!
First part of the Villareal's is up. After a paused pregnancy it's finally time for Luna to give birth. Luna and Devin pass time at the hospital until they can welcome their sons. I took an abundance of birthing screenshots. Again massive thanks to PandaSama and the Child Birth Mod!
Time for a change of pace with a smaller household in the suburbs of Del Sol Valley. It's a calm Autumn morning when-
Luna: DEVIN
Devin: Hmm, what, I'm up
Luna: I think it's time
Devin: Time, right now? At 3 in the morning
Luna: I don't think they know time yet
Devin: Right, remain calm, remain calm
Devin: HELP! My wife is in labour, is anyone here
Luna: Let's get to the waiting room
Devin: Upstairs? In your condition
Luna: I'll be fine, maybe it'll help stimulate contractions
So the pair go upstairs. They make it to the top just in time for Luna's water to break in the corridor.
Luna will be attended by Dr Farias (pictured) who safely delivered Pollock Knightstone and Dr Eriksson who safely delivered Savannah and Mercedes Chopra.
Farias: Ready for your epidural
Luna: It won't hurt them will it
Farias: Not a bit, just let us know if it's not working
Luna: I... I think it is
Farias: Believe me, if it went wrong you would know
Devin: Thanks
Farias: You'll want to make yourself comfortable, labour can take some time
Luna: How much time, the Dr that did our ultrasound didn't say
Farias: I had a patient who gave birth in 12 hours but we have had a labour last over 2 days
(It was Fergus Pancakes, his labour took an eternity and a half)
Luna: 2 days! Schatz I can't be stuck like this for 2 days
Devin: 2 days isn't a certainty
Luna: Tomorrow is Harvestfest and we have plans, I haven't seen my brothers in forever
Devin: If all else fails we'll invite them to the hospital. Is there anything I can do to help
Luna: I did see something
The room has a yoga ball that Luna can use for exercises but at the moment she's dazed so Devin gives her a back massage
Devin: Is here the right spot
Luna: Maybe, it just all hurts
Devin: I'm sorry amore
Farias: Try a bit lower
Devin: Like this
Luna: Yes, it's definitely sore there too
Devin: Is the pain still there
Luna: Schatz I'm in labour, of course there's still pain
Devin: If you want I could do that thing with my tongue and-
Luna: Devin! We're in a public hospital. Paparazzi could be anywhere
Devin: Sorry! I just want to help you amore
Luna: Think you can find some food?
Devin races off
Turns out the ready meal vending option requires a microwave which is... not in the cafeteria. While Devin blatantly disregards the staff only signs Luna tries out some exercises. Suddenly I spot it. A mini fridge right in the room. Thank you original builder! Childish Luna has a pb&j sandwich.
Devin: I'm back! And you found a sandwich
Luna: I did, sorry I sent you searching
Devin: You do not need to be sorry. I could only purchase vending food for myself not storage. I tried
Luna: I know you would have
Devin: I just feel so useless
Luna: You just being here helps
Devin: It does
Luna: Yes
The next time Dr Farias checks in Luna is resting soundly and Devin has had a costume change before having a nap of her own. Luna can't seem to sleep for long though and pain wakes her sooner rather than later. She's hungry again. She knows her wife wants to help but Devin looks so peaceful.
She can't bear to wake her knowing the twins will be disrupting sleep soon enough. As quietly as a person in labour can she slides from the bed and grabs a bowl of cereal.
Devin: What are you doing
Luna: Getting food, you were asleep
Devin: I would have got up. Please Lu, you have to let me help
Luna: Sway with me, that'll help
Devin: Is the pain still bad
Luna: I was able to sleep for a bit but this pressure, it hurts
Devin: I'm so sorry
Luna: Don't be schatz. It's a miracle that you and me could make these twins. My biggest fear after mum disappeared was being left alone
Devin: It was?
Luna: I'm may be older than you but accidents happen. With our kids, I shouldn't ever be alone
Devin: Hey now, nothing is going to happen to me
Luna: Because you think you're the watchers favourite
Devin: Exactly, I'll be with you forever amore
Luna: I wish I believed in them
Devin: I'll believe for the both of us
Dr E: How are you dear
Luna: It must be go time by now right
Dr E: Let me check. Sorry dear, only 6cm dialated, we need 10
Luna: Bother
Dr E: Why not try a small walk, it helps some patients
Luna: I guess
Meanwhile Devin is again using staff facilities to work out to prep for her next acting gig.
Full disclosure, I did NOT build this hospital. It was EA ID: Corrinus. I just changed one of the birth rooms into an ultrasound office upstairs. I'll probably need to renovate if a sim wants to become a doctor but this works well for now. Luna checks out some rooms wishing it was birthing time.
After walking in circles she returns to the main room. She decides to have another go on the yoga ball, she wants to be home for Harvestfest. Maybe she can exercise the twins out. Devin having finished her exercise turns to practicing her lines for the gig. It's a cop drama this time.
Devin grabs some food and checks on her wife.
Devin: Hey you had a costume change to
Luna: You inspire me
Devin: As I should
Luna: It's so weird having boobs this big
Devin: I think you naturally have the flattest chest of any woman in game and I kind of miss it
Luna: Me to, I hope I can get back
Devin: If you can, you can. If you can't, you can't. We'll adjust and I love you no matter what you look like
Luna: Devin
Devin: I know, I know. I'm meant to say you're beautiful and glowing and you totally are
Luna: Devin
Devin: And we both know I'm hot and have the most perfect boobs-
Luna: DEVIN
Devin: What's wrong
Luna: I think it's actually go time
Devin: Oh damn like pushing time
Luna: Yeah
Devin: Okay okay, don't move, I'll find the Dr
Luna: We can meet her in the theatre
Devin: Right yep
Sure enough Dr Eriksson is ready and waiting in theatre for Luna who is fully dilated
Dr E: Hold on just a second
Devin: What's wrong, is the baby okay
Dr E: I was just checking, yes he seems to be in the right position. It's safe to push
Luna: Ooof, oh this feels so weird, you definitely wouldn't like being pregnant
Devin: I knew it. You can do this amore mio, I believe in you
The delivery is not like Luna expected. More pressure and less breathing breaks. It isn't long before she's completely exhausted.
Luna: I don't think I can do it
Devin: Sure you can, you want to meet your sons don't you
Luna: I want... to meet... our sons!
Devin: Then keep pushing
Dr E: We have a head
A total 14 hours of labour, not quite record breaking, and we have twin 1
Luna: Oh look at him
Devin: He's so small, the ones we get on set are never this small
Dr E: He'll grow soon enough, don't worry
Luna: Alfred
Devin: Really Lu
Luna: I do like his movies that you showed me, the master of suspense
Devin: We'll see
Luna: One... more... push
Dr E: Here's boy 2
Luna: Boy 2
Dr E: Well done dear
Devin: You did it amore mio
Luna: He's just as beautiful
Devin: Rilian
Luna: You mean it
Devin: It's a unique name from those books you love, I’ll love it, and him
Luna: Our boys, Alfred and Rilian, the best blend of me and you
Dr E: I'll give you all a moment while I fill in the paperwork
Devin: I can't believe they're finally here
Luna: I'm sure I was pregnant for years
Devin: Do you know how proud I am of you
Luna: Schatz
Devin: I mean it. You grew these two boys and gave birth and I love you and them
Luna: Our family
