3.111 It's time

We couldn't have asked for more perfect weather for our impromptu lake jaunt. It was the quintessential spring day with warm air, light wind, and zero clouds. But it was spring, and the air was warm, not hot. That meant the water hadn't warmed up yet, and it took us a while to adjust to its frigid grasp. But once we were in, nothing could stop our fun. We swam and splashed and played and kissed and swam some more until the sun began its descent and the air cooled.

A visit to Gilbert Gardens was not complete without a leisurely walk on the trails, so we tried to gather the dogs to walk around the lake with us, but they had other plans. Correction: Rosie had other plans. She always did, and this time they backfired. Poor thing got sprayed by a skunk. She waited for us at the trailhead, whimpering, looking pitiful, and smelling like hot trash. I took her to the outside basin immediately when we got home and had to bathe her three times to get that smell off.

While I was out there, I tended to the money tree and harvested the cash. Another §8,000! I wasn't a great student, but if my math was right, we could move within two days. Time to start packing.

Navi asked Lucy to meet him at his house. She had no idea it would be so grand. Navi never even talks about his family, let alone the small fortune they must have. His sister was nice at least.

🎶 Y’all ready for this? 🎶 

It’s time to officially meet our ISBI founder and first torch holder; Maureen Morgan. Maureen is a Fortune Sim, with a lifetime want to Earn § 100.000. yay.

I’m assuming everyone and their grandmother knows the rules of an ISBI, but in case you don’t, you can read about the rules I’m following here.

After that, I was pretty tired, but there was so much I wanted to do while the house was quiet. So I tried this bottle of stuff that I got in the mail. I think it was a free sample of something.

I felt great! Now I don't need to sleep! Time to upgrade the dishwasher.

The repairperson came straight over and decided the very first toilet she should unblock was the one in the same room where Annabelle had literally just finished showering. Annabelle was forced to stand there awkwardly watching her work as she couldn't move from where she was standing. Great.

Eventually, the repairperson finished fixing all the plumbing around the house and... oh. Whoops. I completely forgot to leave some funds in the bank after the renovations to actually pay her with. She decided to take one of the new toilets (not one she'd just fixed) as payment. Maybe there will be fighting over bathrooms after all!

After a looong gruelling Skill building up his Cooking and Gourmet Cooking skills up to level 10, harvesting and keeping all my sims death flowers, painstakingly catching every fish but the blasted angel fish. Elliot finally had enough reward points to buy a potion of youth thus completing the requirements for the Ambrosia [ i won’t lie i was tempted to cheat the damn skills. BUT i didn’t. i’m sooo PROUD of myself for not cheating, he managed to gain enough rewards points for two potion of youth’s as his wife to be was nearing adulthood.]  

As soon as he ate the ambrosia he married his girlfriend Alisa, now to begin the life of Elliot Ness ISBI Torch Holder 

Update: Wasn’t long before they were expecting, how this is going to pan out i dunno i can’t control her in anyway, so when it comes to giving birth i’m just gonna have to let her burst i guess lol 

haahha oh well wish poor Elliot luck. least its only one baby [MCCC says is a girl..]

The challenge calls for the minimum of two children before reaching Adult stage and as soon as the new torch holder reaches Young adult [Who ever that may be] they take over so i guess i’m renovating the house lol.

So i looked up the RULES of this challenge over the years its changed probably coz of packs like parenthood etc. the last set of rules i found are from 2021

So from what i’ve read online The ISBI Challenge. FULL Autonomy and AGING has to be turned on!! 

1. You control only one sim a generation Your torch holder. He or she will start life as a YOUNG ADULT no older no younger.

2. You must have at least 2 children by the time your torch holder reaches Adult stage. but you don’t have to marry. they still have to build skills, get a job, make friends.

3. Once your next torch holder reaches Young Adult you take control of him/her, ALL other children in the house must be moved out once they reach Young Adult, however when you stop control of the first sim they are now left to fend for themselves as a sim living in the house. and the new torch holder takes over the house. 

4. You must play for 10 generations minimum... providing they survive lol.

5. You can not interfere with what the other sims in the house are doing.

6. You can influence sims like children to do stuff such as homework/skill build or go to bed.

7. Don’t cheat. So no cheating skills/cash/Satisfaction points or Need, however i did read that you may turn on free real estate so you sim keeps the starting amount of cash.but i dunno it seems a little too easy so i built emptied a house i’d made back to a shell and furnished with the funds i had.  i’m not sure about keeping any money the spouse brings in when they move in to the household [it didn’t say i couldn’t]. i mean i kept it. [ its not like in real life you marry someone as say NO to any money they bring in right lol. ]

8. you can’t really stop your sim from failing either, like children getting taken away due to neglect, its a literal role of the dice, do you take the day of work, to look after the baby/toddler coz you can’t trust the spouse to do so, or do you take the chance and fear that Sim child services will take your baby/Toddler while your at work lol? 

Oh if you want to make it harder your starting sim has to be given the Erratic trait but doing so means that the next torch holder must also be given the Erratic trait at some point before they reach Young adult and so on so each generations Torch holder is basically NUTS!!!!.

3.109 My place in this world

Mama called and invited us over for dinner that night, so Sophia and I discussed whether we would share our news when she inevitably asked us about her grandchildren. We knew she could handle it, and would offer to help any way she could, but we decided to keep it to ourselves for the moment. I didn't enjoy keeping secrets from my mother, but letting the world in felt like defeat at this stage. Sophia had only just begun the treatments. She could be pregnant by tomorrow. It wasn't time to worry everyone, especially when they weren't suspicious yet.

But to both of our surprise, we got through the entire evening without one question or comment about babies. Not even Alessia, who was even nosier, said anything. Without a story to fabricate, we ate in a semblance of peace with our secret between us, hoping one day this would be a distant memory added as a footnote in our story.

Back at home, I caught Sophia sneaking out of the bathroom as I headed for bed. She froze like she got caught stealing when she spotted me, but then the disappointed took over. I sighed, not because I knew what she did in there, but because of her tenacity. I loved how she wouldn't give up despite how much it hurt. But I didn't want her to end every day disappointed if these treatments didn't work, so I grabbed her by the hand and led her into our room.

"It's okay, you know. Maybe it takes a while for it to take effect."

"Or maybe it won't work for me."

"Don't say that. It'll work. And even if it doesn't, it's not the end. We'll just move on to the next thing. Regardless of how it happens, very soon, we'll have our baby, and we'll be in our new house, and everything will be great."

She sighed, nodding in agreement, but I could tell she struggled to believe.

"Is it bad that I hope we don't have to adopt? Does that make me like my parents?"

"Not at all. I think everyone prefers their own blood. It's natural."

"It's just that... You have all these beautiful family ties. There's only me. I don't want my existence to be just a blip on the radar, here one day and gone the next, forgotten and unimportant. I want to leave a piece of me behind so my life matters!"

I couldn't hold it together anymore. The dam broke, and tears flooded my face. I hated how much those idiots who birthed and raised her affected her life. She arguably was the best sim to ever walk the earth; The star in my sky; The light in my darkness; The gummy bear in my pancakes! No one else mattered to me quite like she did.

"Sophia, you do matter! You matter to me! You matter to this family! My life has been a thousand times better because you're in it! And when we're finally able to hold our child, whether it's ours or not, you'll matter to him too! Her. Whoever! You're gonna love the hell out of them, and they'll think you're the best sim on earth. Right?"

She nodded through her tears.

"Yes. I love it so much already! I haven't even met it yet."

"Exactly. Don't worry. It'll happen."

Branden began a structured morning with coffee and his homework.

Then he took some personal time to call up Lacey, the girl he danced with at prom.

Eventually I managed to get everyone off the sofas (and hid them in Annabelle's inventory), then got Bunty out of bed long enough to get Annabelle and Melvin off to sleep.

Unfortunately she then chose to spend her night on the exercise bike instead of, you know, in her bed. Gah! I was forced to use her teen command to cancel her exercise and send her to bed. I really hope I don't need that command for something more important further down the line!

Anyway the season changed to Winter that night so the round came to an end. Melvin is now 44, Annabelle is 43, and Bunty and Crispin are 14.

Okay, back to my BACC for Round 11!
