Hey everyone! Before we start, I just wanted to wish a happy 8 year legaversary to the Kantos! I can’t believe it’s been 8 years since I moved Absol into Riverview and kicked off this crazy family. I want to thank you all for sticking with me this far. It’s a bit cringe for me to go back and read some of my older chapters from when I was still a teenager, but it’s definitely interesting to see how I’ve grown and changed throughout the years. Anyways, enough with the sappy stuff. On with the show!
Vespiquen: Can’t somebody else do the gross parts of toddler training? I don’t wanna deal with the poop…
Everyone else is doing career or skilling stuff, Quen. You have an easy LTW, but I’m not letting you off scot-free from responsibilities.
Vespiquen: Fine. You want me to do parenting stuff? I’ll stand here and watch my kid.
Scizor: Mama, don’t just stand there! Help me fit the block into the hole!
I actually have another task for you, Quen.
Vespiquen: Ooh, a fancy lamp.
Scizor: Can I play with it?
Vespiquen: How mysterious, I do wonder what will happen.
Jammie: Greetings and salutations. I’m Jammie. The Genie.
Jammie: Now leave me alone. I need rest.
Vespiquen: Oh. I kinda thought the genie would be a guy.
Vespiquen: Look, I don’t really need any wishes. I’ve already had everything handed to me on a silver platter.
Vespiquen: I’m really just looking for prospects to have kids with. I super don’t swing this way, but I think I could make an exception one time if you’d be willing to give your…donation.
Jammie: I’d be honored if you’d consider me as a baby “daddy.” Maybe you’d also think about me when looking to finally settle down, too? I’d make a good housewife.
Vespiquen: Eww. No. This will absolutely be a one-and-done thing. Now if you’ll excuse me, I don’t wanna think about this anymore…
I do feel a bit bad about this since Quen is straight. Was definitely expecting a male genie. Good thing Sims’ gender preferences are pretty flexible most of the time.
While this was going on, Scizor got started on teaching herself to walk.
AH! HE’S FINALLY OUT! This is well into the third week in this town, and our ghost has finally shown himself. This is Aubergine Berry, the man who was unfortunately crushed during the building of this house. He’s also a werewolf!
Margaret: What the heck is going on here?!
Aubergine: Oh dear…have I overstepped…?
Aubergine: Ma’am…are you alright?
Vespiquen: Woah. Who are you?
Aubergine: I’m not sure anymore, pretty lady. Last thing I knew, I was on this house’s construction crew. Then today, I wake up as a ghost.
Vespiquen: Oh no, I’m so sorry that happened to you. Is death scary?
Aubergine: Nah, not really. It’s kinda like life, just slower. And I have to go back in a few hours.
Vespiquen: Then let’s not waste any time. You’re hot. After I have my baby, I wanna get sweaty with you.
Aubergine: Hehe…that sounds nice.
Ling is hard at work on her new LTW. Not sure if this is the smart way to do it, but I’m having her build up her skill to level 10 first, then she’ll work on using her elixirs.
Quen is hard at work at the science research station. I’m sure after meeting some of her romantic options this chapter, you can guess what my goal is.
Of course, she has to pause to acknowledge her pregnancy.
Poor Mimey is exhuasted after a long day at work, yet he’s still the one to free Scizor from her walker. Of course, he takes his sweet time getting her back to her crib.
Mr. Mime: Oh. Our TV’s broken. I suppose I’ll be the one to fix that…
Scizor: I don’t care about the TV right now, Papa! I wanna go to bed!
Maggie’s started on her third career, sculpting! Hopefully this does count as her third career, since the first was completed in the previous town.
Quen takes a break from science to reread the pregnancy books.
Then she takes a break from reading the books to greet a very special visitor!
Vespiquen: OMG! Hi, I’m Quen. I’ll make this quick, since I don’t know how long you’ll be staying. Wanna have a baby with me?
Orthopox: Greetings. I must admit that my people typically mate only with males of the human species. To mate with a female would be…an interesting experiment.
Vespiquen: Actually, I’m not a human. I’m a mermaid.
Orthopox: Fascinating!
Vespiquen: He’s cute as a bug. Can I keep him?
Here’s some Scizor spam, since her mother’s exploits are getting much more attention than she is.
Scizor: That’s okay, I don’t mind not being in the spotlight.
Quen left our alien friend for the night, but he hung around the lot until daytime.
I had Mimey invite him inside.
Mr. Mime: Hello, nice to meet you. You must be Orthopox, my daughter’s been telling me about you. Wanna come inside for a while?
Orthopox: Thank you for the invitation, human male. I will accept, as I am intrigued to learn about your way of life.
Orthopox: So this is what they call “dancing.” It is very pleasing!
Orthopox: Hello, human baby. I am Orthopox, a friend of your mother’s.
Scizor: Mommy has lots of friends, you’ll have to be more specific.
Orthopox: I am the one who issues wiggling fingers to naughty children!
Scizor: Ahahah, that tickles! I like this friend, Mommy!
He played with Scizor for a while, then left. I think he’d make a great husband candidate, assuming Quen likes him!
Almost time for Scizor to age up, and I realized I’d forgotten to have her do her TSAL! We got right on that.
Quen finally got the forbidden fruit seed! Since Ling’s gardening skill is maxed out, I had her plant it for us. If she’s able to though, I’ll have Quen pick the seed when it’s ready so if we get a baby, it’ll be hers.
Now it’s back to the chemistry table, but not before she downs some raw fish.
Vespiquen: Yummy, fish is my favorite!
I haven’t paid much attention to her eating fish before. I find it kinda icky.
Mimey still paints in his spare time. He’s done a couple more Quen portraits, and they’ve turned out super dark still. Might have to move the easels around to get better lighting.
Quen’s chemistry table exploits are now over as well.
Vespiquen: Elekid, wake up! I’m sorry I’ve ignored you since childhood. I’ve just had more important things to do. But I have a surprise for you.
Elekid: I’m still mad. But I’ll take your surprise.
Elekid: Woah. What happened?
Vespiquen: You became real, that’s what.
Here’s Elekid after I rerolled his face! He’s quite the cutie.
Elekid is clumsy, a hopeless romantic, ambitious, lucky, and evil. His LTW is Golden Tongue, Golden Fingers. He likes kids music, mushroom omelets, the color black, and is a Capricorn.
He’s also super obsessed with Quen.
Elekid: I’m so happy you came around, Quen. I’m ready to be your doting house husband!
Vespiquen: I mean, I do want a husband. I guess you can be an option.
Elekid: Oh, thank you m’lady! I promise I won’t let you down!
Vespiquen: Hey, I’m not making any promises. And even if I do decide to marry you, you’ll have to wait until I’m done having my fun.
Elekid: Of course, I’ll wait for you forever, Quen…
Vespiquen: Oh shoot, the baby’s coming!
Elekid: Baby?! I’m not ready to be a step-dad!
Vespiquen: Too late for that, buddy!
I had Elekid take Quen to the hospital.
Elekid: Please drive faster, Mr. Taxi Driver! My future wife is having another man’s baby!
Vespiquen: I haven’t agreed to be your future wife yet!
Taxi Driver: I so don’t get paid enough for this.
Welcome to the world, baby Delibird!
Delibird is an artistic loner, and she likes songwriter music, firecracker shrimp, and the color pink. She’s a leo. I changed the baby blanket color for Scizor when she was born, but my game didn’t like that very much and kinda glitched out. So it’s back to pink and blue blankets for me!
That’s all for this chapter. Thanks so much for reading, and I hope you enjoyed it! I know we met a lot of baby daddies for Quen this chapter, and that definitely wasn’t intentional. They were all meant to show up someday, but I didn’t expect all that to happen in such a short time! Oh well, at least we have the rest of her baby daddies lined up now! Hope you all have a great day, and I’ll see you next time!
