0.9 A Cliffhanger!

Welcome back!  Last time, we saw someone die, some inappropriate wishing, Knack missing school AGAIN, and the cat did some things I think.

Moving on!


Mat is finally level 5!  And it turns out he needs Alchemy.  How was I to know?!


Remember Affinity?  I sure didn't.  Now she's having a birthday on the floor.


D'aww.

She's an Absent-Minded Couch-Potato, if you forgot like I did.


MEANWHILE, Knack went to Prom!  He didn't have a date, because he has met zero kids his age.  It was largely uneventful, except at the end, when I got this:


Knack is gay.

It never even OCCURRED to me that Knack might be gay. I didn't know Sims 3 Sims had autonomous gender preferences!

This changes things.  Knack was set to be heir, but I don't have mods, and I'm not a cheating person.  And I won't make him be with a girl if he doesn't want to be.

So, for the sake of Knack's happiness, he is now a spare.

.......also, what a sad way to find that out D=  Meanie turned him down.

Lucky for him, another boy was there to pick him up after his fall.  More on that later~


Hi Affinity!  Where did you get that?

I named her Inept.

Anyway, Affinity, I'm glad you were born!  We need you now!

Inept:  Her or the other one.

Other one?


Son of a...

Yeah, okay, I let them try, but I didn't hear a lullaby.  I turned off the music, which I guess it's part of.

My rule is this - if they roll the wish (especially if both of them do), I'll let them try.  ONCE.  If it doesn't work, no go.  I don't really know what the fertility odds are in this game, though, so maybe I'm dooming myself.


You know, I like the discounts, but I could do without the paparazzi.  This is just creepy.


What?  Just a teenager in his underwear holding his cat.  What's newsworthy about that?


Yes, Knack is in love.  Although the "Most Popular" guy turned him down, another guy was there for him.  We quickly set about courtship.

Knack:  Did I ever learn how to write?

Just sprinkle some more glitter on there, it'll be fine.


Knack:  No way, you've been going to school since WHAT age?  By the time of Prom, I'd only gone twice!  And I skipped the day of!

It's true.  He misses school a lot.


Affinity!  I thought I put that away?  I need you to read that book, not play with a stupid creeper doll!

Inept:  Neener neener!



Like every cat I've ever owned, Pounce pretty much never sleeps in her bed.

Elsewhere, it's Generic-Version-of-Valentines-Day, so the lonely members of the household head out, looking for love!


You probably won't find it here.

Pounce:  Holy Boolprop!  This thing is the size of ME.

She couldn't do anything but watch it, sadly.

...It's still kind of neat, though.


But who is this mean-looking Sim?


Why, it's Garland Hernandez, whose name I mostly remember!  He must be Knack's prom savior!

He is mean spirited, and I like him.


Pounce, meanwhile, meets Fred.  Fred is impressed with Pounce's ideas for Kitten-Tanks.


This seems to be going well <3


A little kissing.



A little playfulness.

All in all, a good day for love.


I think Mat and Susannah have had enough love for one season, however, so I keep them away from each other.  There's plenty to do.


Knack returns home after an awesome date, and begins planning out his dream home.

Keep at it, Knack!

...I like the sun, though.


Mat's still creepy.

Doing it in the rain without a shirt probably doesn't help matters.


For some reason, I'd never tried it on Susannah.  She seems pleased by his prediction of screaming children in her future.

Su:  AMAZING.  How did he know?!


If you stick up your pinky and pointer, they do look like llamas!


Why are they eating each other?  D=


Su:  Oh, look at miss clever, trying to get interesting shots!

Come on, labor's old hat, even for me.

Su:  Hate.


Su:  And you never satisfied my cravings, either :|

Mat:  What IS that smell?


They try to head to the hospital - but Knack is fishing, and we don't have the money for the babysitter after the remodel for the baby.

Mat:  I guess we'll have a home birth...

Su:  So much hate.


Affinity:  Twubble alweddy.

Yep.


Mat:  Whelp, I'm off to work!

Yeah, it's about time I round out this chapter anyway.

Su:  WHAT


Su:  You can't leave now!

Sure I can!

Su:  NO!

Too-da-lu!

Su:  Hate.
