Round 5 - Banks

header


Last time:
- The Banks family hit the Jackpot: they got 250.000 simoleons, and they donated the majority of it to the town
- The twins Rachel and Gerald grew up to teenagers
- And baby Aubrey became a child

pic1

Only 1 argument (ROS was so generous), but because they're not having any enemies, I'll choose a random person

pic2

Let's start with some happy gardening with Gerald!

pic3

And some happy woohooing with Cornelia and Gaston :P

pic4

Time to visit Gaston's bookstore, the Book Nook! I still love this building! :D

pic5

Gerald also came to help his father (since he'll inherit the store later), Abigail (by [livejournal.com profile] lesyasun) was satisfied with his guidance :)

pic6

Trenton the townie: What, this guy is wearing the same shirt?
Ooops sorry guys, my bad XD

pic7

Everyone loved the books! And they lined up in a wrong way :P

pic8

The beautiful Mae (by [livejournal.com profile] slyndsey) is still working here, and she becomes better and better!

pic9

All the customers were acceptive!

pic10

Except who wasn't XD

pic11

Gerald: I'll grow up soon!
Do I sense a little crush here? :3

pic12

Meanwhile Aubrey enjoyed the last day of summer with her mother :)

pic13

And she started a new hobby!

pic14

Mae was walking by (despite she should be working)

pic15

Cornelia was angry with her. Maybe she thought there's something more between her and Gaston?

pic16

Gosh, save me from this place!

pic17

But they reconciled soon

pic18

Well, not that much XD

pic19

When Rachel came home from work, she invited Finley Sergeant over

pic20

To have some traditional pillow fighting

pic21

What did I say about Gerald's crush? Look at his face :3

pic22

Of course, Gaston managed to got an electric shock again
Despite he should be lucky according to his traits...

pic23

Cornelia: My husband turned to a blue skeleton!
Rachel: That's disgusting!
Mae: I can't even look at him!
Fortunately no one got hurt, and the computer didn't catch fire like last time, phew!

pic24

Morning cartoon:
Aubrey: I love this!
Rachel: What is this crap? I should seriously enjoy it?

pic25

pic28

Bland fruits and vegetables are kinda common in this town XD

pic30

It's just B!

pic31

pic32

Homework time!

pic33

Cornelia was a bit tired of teaching all of her kids XD

pic34

Later, the sameshirt guy, Trenton visited them

pic36

And Tyler the creepy townie somehow managed to invite himself XD

pic37

Tyler: *evil thoughts*
Gaston: *smiling naively*

pic38

Trenton: Haha, this girl is seriously writing her homework? Is she okay?
Oh, shut up you uneducated jerk XD

pic39

At least Cornelia had some fun with Tyler

pic40

Trenton: Peace and love my friend!

pic41

Gerald: Congratulations on your first woohoo with my mother O_o

pic42

Um, why are you punching your sister?

pic43

Aubrey: Send help

pic44

Sometimes they act like teenagers :D

pic45

What's the problem, Gerald?
Gerald: I don't want to go to school!
Okay, I understand!

pic46

At the bookstore Mae got another raise! She's a great employee! (and she's pretty too :3)

pic47

Abigail, are you cheching out Emily Sergeant's butt? :P

pic48

Yay! The business is thirving. But it only makes losses :(

pic49

Autumn colors :3

pic50

Aubrey: Look here mum! This is an A+! My A+!

pic51

Wilbur Masterson, the mayor came to check on the residents of Griffinmere. But it seems like he wasn't really interested about what Cornelia told him XD

pic52

Tristan Woods came home from school with Aubrey, and they became best friends :3

pic53

The pillow fighting tradition is spreading!

pic54

Gerald: Gosh, mum, this pasta is awful!

pic55

But Wilbur didn't mind it XD

pic56

Later, Rachel and Finley went on a date!

pic57

And they fell in love :3

pic58

Rachel: Oh my, what am I doing with this kid?
She still thought that Finley is too young for her

pic60

Why everything is always broken in this house?

pic61

The parents also went on a home date :3

pic62

It was a great time

pic63

Until it became a TV party. I see, they're getting old :(

pic64

I didn't want to watch a horror movie during our date!

pic65

Despite the whole family contains cat lovers, Aubrey rolled a want to get a dog, so they adopted Larson!

pic66

Aubrey quickly became his friend! :D

pic68

That night, Leann Danielson visited Rachel. Remember: they're best friends :3

pic69

And she loves animals!

pic70

I love her, she's always so friendly with everyone!
*end of Leann glorification*

pic71

Another destructive pet...

pic72

Cornelia: You're not allowed to chew things!

pic73

Larson: I deeply apologize, master

pic74

Larson: Stickstickstickstick

pic75

Cornelia: Where's the stick, boy?

pic76

It's here! Hehehe!

pic77

Larson: I feel betrayed

pic79

Larson: I'm dead!

pic80

Larson: I think she didn't believed it

pic81

Gaston hired Leann to be a restocker, because he was so busy selling stuff

pic82

Cailin Sergeant came to buy some books. She was easy to convince!

pic83

And her love interest, Caleb (by Poppet) was also here! :3

pic84

Caleb: Lalalala

pic85

Cailin: Oh, that's so awful, but I won't tell him, because he's so cute!

pic86

Nice, Snowflake, you little destroyer!

pic87

At least Larson discovered the chewing toy

pic88

And got some belly rubbing :3

pic89

I decided that Rachel will continue the pet shop that Cornelia had to sell in the second round

pic90

I'm pretty sure that's not yours XD

pic91

Were do you see palm trees?

pic92

Rachel: I can see Twikkii from here!
Well, if you say so...

pic93

The last day, it was the twins' birthday!

pic94

First Gerald

pic95

Than Rachel

pic97

Gerald seems like a clone of his father, or at least he's really similar

Knowledge / Family - Gemini
+ Makeup, Fitness
- Witchiness
Traits: Slob (Gaston) - Color Blind (Cornelia) - Ambitious - Bookworm - Family Oriented
LTW: Media Magnate

pic98

And here's Rachel, I didn't change their appearance too much (maybe Natalie Danielson will)

Knowledge / Romance - Libra
+ Fitness, Glasses
- Facial hair
Traits: Slob (Gaston) - Cat Lover (Cornelia) - Eccentric - Mature - Charismatic
LTW: Max out 7 skills (yeah, I rerolled it, one media magnate is enough)

pic99

Gaston is a serious knowledge sim!

pic100

Funny ears! :D

pic101

Please don't electrify yourself again >_<

pic102

And that's where this update ends. Rachel and Gerald moved out together to their own place
Oh, and the tax was 9000 simoleons (they're still rich)

---
- I can't wait to play Lesya's beautiful pet store again! :D
- Gaston is seriously unlucky with those electric objects! Poor guy XD
- I was surprised that Aubrey wanted a dog instead of a cat, but I couldn't resist :)
- The bookstore only makes loss. I think I'll have to raise the prices
- Oh, and thank you for reading :D

Larson looks like he's some sort of spanish water dog. He's fluffy!

[identity profile] deedee-sims.livejournal.com 2015-03-06 09:35 am (UTC)(link)
He is cute! The game generated him, so thank you game! :D

[identity profile] lesyasun.livejournal.com 2015-03-06 08:11 am (UTC)(link)
I somehow like townie Trenton :D He is funny. Hope, to see him in next round again :D

I miss tasty bland fruits. I have a perfect garden mod in my game, so all the crops in my game are always perfect :D Ah, bland apples... yummy :D

Gaston really looks like his father. I also can see it. And they are both handsome! (Well, all these "red" kids are pretty ^^)

And of course I'm very excited to see you playing in the pet store! Hope this business won't have losses like a bookstore.

Indeed! I like his face, and he was just wandering around and doing funny things on his own :D

Oh, so you're a cheater :P I have a perfect garden mod for the shrubs and flowers, but I like to see the development in the harvestable things as the sims increasing their gardening badges :)

You mean Gerald looks like his fater XD I usually mix them up too, because both of their names starts with G. I have to think twice what I write down XD
As you can see, I'm a hardcore color coder. Thank you! :D

Ah, I'm sure the pet store won't make loss, the expensive fishtanks will make a fortune! :)

That electrocution animation is the scariest. I'm glad Gaston is okay after that.
Larson seems like quite a character.

[identity profile] deedee-sims.livejournal.com 2015-03-07 01:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Totally! And it was his second electocution! Poor thing... But he's allright :)
Ah, I really love Larson! He always wants to play with everyone! :D

Gearld is defo crushing! I find it hilarious when sims congrat each other on woohooing. Or the woohoo picture shows up in their speech bubbles xD These kids are so cute. P.S as usual I still love how you pose them up :3 You kinda have me doing it now too when I'm introducing new sims. I can't wait to read more D:

[identity profile] deedee-sims.livejournal.com 2015-04-17 07:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, thank you! I like Gerald too :) Indeed, sims are always talking about woohoo in the most inappropriate situations XD I really enjoy making the family pictures, it's fun! :D

I love the Book Nook, too! Looks so cozy from the outside all the way to the inside! Mae is getting so much better at working the register. Woohoo, practice makes perfect!

Larson's floppy ears make me giggle, haha! Gerald does look a lot like his dad, while Rachel is an even mix between both of them. Great-looking, nonetheless! :D

[identity profile] deedee-sims.livejournal.com 2015-07-15 11:18 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks, the Book Nook is one of my favorite buildings in Griffinmere! Despite the fact that hardly anyone uses the top floor XD

Larson is such a funny and friendly doggy! You're right, Gerald looks a lot like his father! I like the twins so much! :D
