remember how i said some sims are hard to find looks for? well, peri was exactly that for a while, so i made a new hair recolor for her.
look how pretty she is! downside is, she can't use that coolsims headband now. this hair is too low. :<
rondie: hey, i don't know why i was here! gotta go!
peridot: or you could stay. ;)
rondie: no.
peridot's room gets a makeover, mostly to accommodate a future spouse.
amillia: OH NO, FIRE
banjo: great job, i'm a cat and i can cook better than you.
banjo: idiot.
amillia: i escaped with my life, but burned my salmon. i'm so upset.
JASPER THAT ISN'T YOUR FUCKING BED
jasper: this whole house mine, bitch.
beryl: thank you, dearest, for making us salmon of the void.
peridot: it tastes like sadness.
i think banjo is the sim that jasper missed the most while in the pit.
peridot gets up early for a day of booty conquesting. these sims aren't getting any younger, after all.
i sent her to monkey statue park (which is actually called Sand Bird Circle Park, i finally named it) and the presence of grandma barnacle doesn't inspire confidence.
peridot: hello! i like your eyebrows.
georgie: you sound like someone... someone i knew once.
kay lum is NOT a good candidate, based on whatever this is.
my game is finally on point with spawning the witches. basically, hagatha existed for nothing. this lady's name is melanie, but i can't remember her last name.
peridot: why doesn't anyone want this?
perhaps the person you've been looking for... has been with you the entire time.
peridot: unlikely.
peridot: wait, you're right. melanie is hot.
NO
peridot: i'm not a fan of witches but i support the neat ass shit you guys do.
melanie: ...thanks?
casimir: your presence is like a dark cloud, settling on my life.
peridot: is that a yes to banging, or?
speaking of hagatha, a reminder that she died in this outfit.
jasper: you should call the matchmaker.
peridot: seems like a waste of money.
jasper: that's how i met professor kari, though.
peridot: damn, if she can find someone for you, she has to be able to help me.
i sent peridot to the churkel, where she ran into cherry (a dormie) and her sister, jade.
peridot: it's cloudy!
jade: there's literally not a single cloud in the sky. how did you never fail in school.
charles lee arrives on the scene, but unfortunately peridot has X chemistry with him.
i'll get him one day.
coral was also there. please stop giving me bakelites, game. that's not what i'm looking for.
peridot: this chick's pretty hot.
jade: that is a statue.
peridot: i know that! she's still hot!
cheryl brown, the infallibly good witch, showed up to bless this mess.
francine max (by krabbysims) was also there, but peridot had no luck with her.
i felt like maybe taking jasper to lots with her would make peridot look better by comparison? he's like. a wing grandpa.
i haven't seen corey mcemohair in like, actual real life months. he hasn't changed much.
peridot: i would love to devour your burger.
chey: there's so many different things that could mean and i hate all of them.
jasper finds whatever joke richter bakelite (ruby's son) told him absolutely hilarious.
corey mcemohair: hey, i almost banged your mom.
jasper: WHAT. ...which one.
peridot: i meant the one like, on your shirt. i'll nom nom nom that, mamacita.
chey: you are so weird.
chey: ...i love weird.
game crashed, so peridot never actually went out the previous night.
it's okay, she didn't meet anyone she had any bolts with anyways. even she and chey had neutral chemistry.
peridot: i am not a fan of this alternate reality! it involves too much work!
look, in the bakelite house, if you break something, you repair it. unless jasper isn't doing something. which right now, he is.
peridot: matchmaker, i summon you!
matchmaker: what the fuck
mawreen: i'm gonna steal their paper, i fucking hate amillia.
...why?
matchmaker: you ready to do this, or?
peridot: gimme gimme gimme some lovin
matchmaker: eenie meenie miney moe
peridot: is this a game to you? >:c
matchmaker, i gave you the maximum, and you give me another professor?
a professor that peridot only has one bolt with?
professor whose name i don't remember because he sucks: hey.
matchmaker: i'll leave you lovebirds alone.
peridot: :|
one bolt is enough to get to at least like. second base. like a subtle titty caress.
i posted this picture on tumblr, but it's so iconic i left it in the update.
beryl: have you thought about makeup to cover the signs of accursed eternal life?
jasper: :|
they were due for this, i suppose. all that ridiculous shit they have.
amillia: GASP so violent! so terrifying! fuck that burglar up!
...the cop lost. THE COP LOST.
GOOD JOB. i mean, nothing was stolen, but FOR FUCK'S SAKE.
peridot gets some gaming on before being sent out for mate hunting part deux.
peridot: i can't stop thinking about the professor.
NO. kari was enough for this legacy.
peridot ran into margaret, but i'm pretty sure margaret is already dating a bakelite spare.
peridot: shit, i'm main line bakelite. i'll break up a relationship if i have to.
charles lee was there again, but peridot still has negative chemistry with him.
rondie: hey.
peridot: oh, hey, rondie. nice flamingo shirt.
rondie: that's awfully nice of you to say!!
peridot: i might not be a flamingo, but i know an activity that involves one leg.
rondie: that makes no sense, but color me intrigued.
i'm sure if anyone actually tended the cash register at the graveyard cafe they'd be very, very confused right now.
peridot heads back home, but. uh. i'll keep rondie in mind.
xanadu has some very interesting community lots.
i'm having beryl go with peridot this time, because she seems. uh. more useful for that purpose.
the strip mall is a relatively new addition, probably built by tiberius barnacle.
although that wouldn't explain why his evil clone, biberius tarnacle, is here right now. or maybe it would.
beryl: what a terribly funny joke!
i didn't bring you guys here for you to only talk to each other.
casimir: flags are good.
peridot: you are the most uninteresting alien i have ever met.
peridot: i like snow!
clover: we live in the desert.
peridot: I CAN DREAM, CLOVER.
i sent peridot over to the oasis, a club in downtown. it's been finished since regine was here in her update.
lots of bakelite spares (and tiberii). this is grimer bakelite, garnet's kid.
peridot, you should be talking to people.
peridot: but... but... butterflies. :c
i immediately sent her to a hobby themed lot, and what do you know. more tiberius clones.
tiberius II: we run this neighborhood.
correction: tiberius runs this neighborhood. you are only tiberius by association.
bumpit townie: you're really boring.
peridot: hm. really. have you seen your face? :-)
bonnie: when your grandma died, i got money for some reason. thanks.
bonnie, this isn't really the help i need right now. but thanks.
at this point, i accepted that no one in xanadu had more that one bolt of chemistry with peridot, so i made a choice.
this choice.
rondie you're really starting to break the deal here.
REALLY STARTING TO BREAK THE DEAL. WHY ARE YOU FRIENDS WITH MAWREEN.
rondie: i'm here to wife your granddaughter.
jasper: well, i'm gonna fuck your monster, so i guess we're even.
peridot: look at the finger. isn't it perfect for a ring? :D
rondie: that's not the right finger, do you even know how this works?
what a quaint little date. involving a mostly-rotten plate of death salmon as a table decoration.
beryl: i love you more than the moon and ALL OF THE STARS combined!
amillia: :>
peridot: did i ever tell you that professor kari died?
rondie: no way! i think i was here when that happened.
peridot: mr. rondie, who has no real last name because your original creator (andrevasims) only gave you a first name and our creator couldn't think of a good one...
peridot: will you do me the honor of becoming mr. peridot bakelite?
rondie: :O
date meter: *explodes*
beryl: oh, amillia...
amillia: peridot got engaged, how wild is that?
jasper: i've masted three regular skills, as well as the magic skill. i could kill you where you stand.
mawreen: keep going, i'm almost there.
peridot: i like my guys chunky and soft. like a sumo wrestler.
rondie: boy do i have some good news for you.
rondie: i'm chunky and soft.
peridot: :D
professor kari: i'm stuck in the place between life and death. hello.
mawreen: beryl is such a nerd, how did she even become heir?
jasper: no clue, i don't pick them.
mawreen: who would you have chosen?
jasper: none of them were good enough.
jasper: professor kari has been gone for a long time. at least two days. how sad.
mawreen: oh my god, sucks to be her.
mawreen: i happen to be very alive and hot as fuck! unlike your dead wife.
jasper: intriguing.
i, um. am actually unsure how this works when there's no actual contact.
mawreen: hey door, i'm getting LAID tonight!
door: i have no mouth and i must scream.
i wish i could unsee this.
i didn't get a shot of it because my game stuttered, but kari's ghost got PISSED and jasper had the "get slapped" action queued up for a few seconds. then kari remembered she was a ghost, and glitched back into her urn.
jasper: IT WAS HORRIBLE I HATED IT I WANT PROFESSOR KARI BACK ;~;
peridot: what a good day, very much like any other day.
rondie: i'm also here.
peridot: ...shit i got engaged yesterday.
rondie: are you having second thoughts? :|
peridot: no. i just miss both sides of the bed. :c can you sleep on the floor?
rondie: no.
aww that's terrible. why does bigfoot not want to be friends with my family?
rondie: you thinking what i'm thinking? ;)
peridot: hehehe owls' heads DO turn all the way around like that!
rondie: no--
peridot: jasper, gtfo.
jasper: i know when i'm not wanted.
jasper: i'll just sneak back in when they aren't looking. it's the perfect crime.
peridot: i think i'm gonna have to punch grandpa jasper. yes i am!
banjo: i would advise against it.
well. the bakelite house unfortunately got very buggy, so i had to move them to a different lot. it wouldn't let me use the mirrors until i did this.
i think it's slightly smaller but the house is much bigger. it's been a lot better to play so far.
everyone pairs off in the way you'd probably expect. banjo is jasper's partner in crime now.
and i could finally makeover rondie!
i like his face, it has features i typically don't put on sims (like asymmetry) and i'm interested to see how they blend with my sims.
they're wildly in love. i'm pretty sure i had rondie drink his renuyu whatever so they have two bolts now.
that was fast. he moved into their house 12 hours ago and BAM. babies.
i assure you, i made sure to bring all the photos/paintings/aspiration rewards with me. this picture is eternal.
banjo: what are you looking at? can i help?
amillia: usually you just hiss at m--
banjo: HISSSSSSSSSSSSS
the house is mostly one floor, but there's a tiny second floor where jasper lives. it even has a sorcery nook.
i think mythril is the only person who has painted her own portrait so far.
beryl: who painted yours?
jasper: can't remember. that was like 100 years ago.
peridot: yeah? jade, i'll have to call you back. jasper's trying to cast a spell on me.
jasper: pfft "trying"
jasper: *speaking sim latin*
peridot: whoa now, that's tingly as fuck.
jasper: i'm so uncomfortable. literally.
this is just a look that doesn't work well on any bakelite. also, peridot doesn't strike me as evil, considering her 10 nice points.
rondie: so what'd you do today?
peridot: i became an evil witch.
rondie: what?
peridot: i'll put a spell on you.
rondie: you didn't need to be a witch to do that.
jasper: people who are in love make me want to gouge my own eyes out.
someone is bitter.
jasper: >:c even more so now that kari's urn is gone.
it's not gone, it's at the graveyard cafe. you can't move urns between houses.
peri's picture is done, and goes on the wall next to her ancestors.
peridot studies to become a neutral witch, as i associate her with purity and greenery.
it gives plenty of time for sproogle 1 to gain substantial mass.
jasper: i remember when both sides of my bed needed to be made... it gives me ideas.
...what kind of ideas?
jasper: how to necromancy.
NO
amillia: why was your dad in here earlier just staring at our bed?
beryl: have you met him? that's why.
rondie: this girl snores a lot.
i'm terrible at remembering to take pics of room makeovers, but i love how beryl and amillia's redid room turned out.
it's getting close! these bitches need to get some rings exchanged.
rondie: can you maybe not... do that so close to me?
amillia and beryl: BLEBELBELBEBE
like i said, today is the day for this.
this is also a good time to point out that amillia and beryl have never gotten married. and that's perfectly okay. peridot and rondie rolled the wants.
jasper: god this shit takes foreverrrrr.
beryl: dad, i swear to steven urkel, don't ruin this.
peridot: and here's my ring! i got it in a kinder surprise egg!
beryl: is it weird to anyone else that these weddings don't... have an officiant or anything? is anyone even married?
beryl: i'm so happy for peridot! and emerald and malachite also got married. i've done good.
jasper: you've done okay.
beryl: bitch.
jasper: do you think it would be morally wrong to bring professor kari back from the dead?
beryl: what is that question? you're so weird.
this is a perfect showcasing of the bakelites' witchy attitudes. peridot just doesn't give a shit, she's neutral.
unfortunately, we didn't get to baby time in this 140 picture update, but it'll happen pretty quickly whenever the next update comes out.
