York Household: Chapter 9, Part 8
Calista and Aaron try out this nectar making contraption then it's time for Kelly's birthday.
Tumblr media
CW: Unicorn zombie with minor carton gore
The Yorks are Italian so if you see them using words that don't look like English it's Italian, or what google assures me is Italian. Caro/Cara: Dear Buongiorno: Good morning Piccolo: Little one Tesoro: Treasure Nonno: Grandfather Nonna: Grandmother Si: Yes Grazie: Thank you Per Favore: Please Buon Compleanno: Happy Birthday
Calista: Buongiorno caro, Buon compleanno
Kelly: Grazie Ma. Pa, did you make my cake
Aaron: One chocolate cake, candle covered, ready for later
Kelly: Better go or I’ll miss the bus, can’t wait to rub my birthday in everyone’s faces!
Calista: He’s sure got enthusiasm
Aaron: Have you see Deanna yet Tesoro
Calista: No but Devin text half an hour ago saying she was heading home and Deanna had slept a good chunk of the night
Aaron: Ready to start our nectar empire?
Calista: *laughs* bring it on
Tumblr media
Aaron: So what do we start with
Calista: Harvesting and watering
Aaron: I meant after that
Calista: I think you need to clarify your questions councillor
Aaron: *laughs* Yes captain
Calista: Let’s do the apples while we get the hang of it, they’re probably going to be less successful than the grapes anyway
Tumblr media
The two get in and start stomping!
Aaron: It feels so weird
Calista: Come on amore, channel your ancestors
Aaron: I’m pretty sure they were all sheep farmers not nectar- UHHH
Calista: Oh and he slips straight on his butt, the crowd goes wild!
Aaron: It’s not like this is a flat surface
Calista: You’ll need a better defense than- UHHH
Aaron: I see you’ve decided to join my sit in
Calista: *laughs* I picked the wrong coloured pants for this
Tumblr media
Despite starting at the same time Aaron finishes his bottle first. They both do a second bottle of apple nectar, they all end up average  despite my thinking they would be poor.
Aaron: Here, I’ll clean this one and you start your grape nectar in it while I clean yours
Calista: You’re just showing off about finishing early
Aaron: Oh Tesoro, you know I show off about everything
Calista: Well maybe finishing early isn’t the brag you think it is. You’ve certainly never bragged about finishing early before. Normally you brag about lasting-
Aaron: Don’t make me sweat, the nectar will go funny
Tumblr media
Despite not feeling like it, Deanna got up, showered, and is working on the homework she was too upset to do last night. At least the lines of physics and comedy take her mind off Paris. Wondering where she is, how she’s doing, who she might have met… She pulls herself together and decides to head to campus early to get her presentation finished before classes.
Tumblr media
I mean if there is a good view while nectar making this has got to be it! Aaron and Calista each make a bottle of grape nectar for the cellar, and discover how more colourful grape splatter is to fall into. When they’re finished they head off to shower off the sticky, but being self absorbed and active sims they both try fit in a workout before the birthday party.
Tumblr media
Luna arrives early and assures Aaron her twins will not be attending the party, Alfred would get overwhelmed and Rilian is still somewhat afraid of Kelly.
Kelly: So this is it Bun Bun. Teenage time. Time to find out if my guesses will be anything close
Bun Bun: *sits in comforting silence*
Kelly: I am going to miss hugging you though. I wish it wasn’t limited to childish sims. Better do one more hug for luck
Calista: Table set, guests invited, cake out. It’s go time!
Tumblr media
Eliza: I love how your house is always tidy
Calista: That’s Aaron, vacuumed everything early this morning
Sims gather round and the traditional birthday song begins. Kelly thinks of his wish, blows the candles and… nothing
Kelly: Why didn’t the candles go out
Joey: Surprise! I got you fake candles for your gift
Kelly: *laughs fakely* Go get me water to put them out if you don’t want me setting you on fire
Joey: *laughing* warning heard
Candles out, time to spin!
Tumblr media
My teenagers get a trait rolled from their parents traits and Kelly has got the over achiever trait from Aaron. Blue is his last favourite colour, he likes basic furniture and style choices are hipster, rocker and polished. New likes include video gaming, malicious interactions, and flirtation. New dislikes include flower arranging, pet enthusiasts and classical music. He’s also rolled being pansexual with romantic attraction to female sims. I'm also trying out randomising the aspiration category and choosing from within that rather than randomising a specific thing (because he rolled Friend of the World, I don't think that fits) so he's going to be trying to become president (still in the popularity section)
Oh yeah and Deanna got a post breakup makeover.
Tumblr media
Anya: So what’s it like being old
Kelly: Weird. And kind of annoying
Drake: Your face is annoying
Kelly: You’re still mad about that sleepover comment? At least I didn’t age up with that makeup disaster on
Drake: Shut up! It’s just my party outfit
Chasity: I think Drake is just revealing his style
Drake: Am not
Tumblr media
Kelly: Grazie for coming
Devin: A thank you? Who are you and what have you done with my brother
Kelly then goes in for a hug, taking me and Devin by surprise.
Devin: You all good gremlin
Kelly: It just... feels strange to be this tall
Devin: Hate to break it to you but actually we’re all short
Kelly: Maybe. Something just feels off
Tumblr media
Luna: Are you hiding in here
Deanna: No. Someone just needed to fix the TV
Joey: And that had to be you because…
Deanna: Because I’m learning handiness for my degree. Why the inquisition?
Luna: I think your hair looks nice. Did you enjoy shopping with Devin
Deanna: I never enjoy shopping. But I am glad to have a proper skin shade now

A proposal
Tumblr media
Benjamin and Luna White are going on a visit to Luna's brother, Hugo Villareal. He lost his wife and Luna and Benjamin have a proposal for him to think about.
Tumblr media
Luna: Hi Janine and Juliënne!
Janine: Hi!
Tumblr media
Hugo: I'm glad you are here. The baby was crying earlier and...
Luna: We are here. I'll check the baby in a minute.
Hugo: Thanks! You guys are doing so much for me
Luna: eeh, we did come with a special reason today. We wanted to talk to you
Hugo: Well let's sit down then
Tumblr media
Benjamin: You know that we have been married for almost five years now.
Luna: And I haven't been able to get pregnant.
Benjamin: Luna has been over here to take care of your children so many times.
Luna: We thought it might be an idea if we would adopt them and they came living with us.
Benjamin: You can come visit any time but don't have to provide and care for them all by yourself.
Tumblr media
Luna: You can think about this, Hugo. You don't have to decide right now
Hugo: This sounds perfect! Oh, Luna! This would be the perfect solution. You are a wonderful mother, the children will be cared for perfectly and I won't have to worry any more. I think we have to do this
Luna: Are you sure? Don't you wanna think about it for a while
Benjamin: It's a drastic change for the children and it will make your life totally different.
Hugo: And that's exactly what we all need. I can't live like this. I'm buzy working, I can't do the children too. Gaby did that.
Luna: Please, Hugo, think about it for at least a night.
Hugo: Alright. I'll think about it for a night. But I think this is perfect

simshaderoom #SSRBreakups #DeangeloBolton has filed for divorce from #LunaVillareal, his wife of just over a year. Infidelity is listed as the reason for the split, but no word on who was doing the cheating. D-Lo wants full custody of their two children together and we are told a prenup was signed. Single D-Lo was a menace in these sim streetz 😏. Do you think he is a changed sim? Will Mizuki get her man back? We miss both of them. Please come back to simshaderoom.
dizzydes Wow. Another marriage over because these wives don't want to be faithful anymore. See what you started Queen... Y'all can keep knocking on my door though. I'm happily single and have enough love to share. Good for you with that prenup bro!
skyeisthelimit Bye ashy!
rubberbandshan Ooop! Skye! Is that for dumbass Dizzy or your step mom?
skyeisthelimit EX step never my mom 😉
kingb Dizziot. Sirrr. It’s giving BK is paying you dust and you're sick over it. Saying anything at this point. Just admit you fucked up including the Queen in your stay relevant by any means necessary actions. And then please keep her name out your mouth.
anon Not to be messy but who do you think D-Lo cheated with? You think him and his “business partner” were making beautiful music in the studio?? 👀😏😅
b&qforever Absolutely not Anon. Ain’t no BK cheating or divorce happening. Ever. And I think Luna cheated. How you get them is how you lose them…
wildbutterfly I don’t care who’s cheating. Someone tell me when they’re casting for D-Lo’s bachelor challenge. I would cut a bish to find out how does it feel.
soheaux Ha! The way I too would be a heaux on national tv for my man D-Lo…. Sign me up.
kingb I’m here for this reality show. For the Love of D-Lo! I need BK to be the host. You think he would accept a male contestant? Asking for a friend…
c.spiracy Hmm. I would like to see this. If I could reveal my identity, I might even apply. Unfortunately we all know D-Lo’s one true love is Bailey Kay. He’ll never be happy with anyone else. Maybe he'll settle for a clone version so Lo and B can finally live their happy ever after.
rubberbandshan I caaaan’t with y’all or this idea. Ok I’m lying. I might could tune in if this became real. I like a little mess from time to time. d-lo i know you’re off simshaderoom shenanigans right now but would you be down????
d-lo 👀

Keeping it Real with The Villareal’s
The VanHaunts and the Villareals were enemies for decades…generations actually. When Jacques and Astrid VanHaunt became involved it was hell on earth for the two of them, until the families finally decided this may be the answer to their ongoing feud. Jacques knew it would be, it would just be a matter of time.
Jacques was the oldest of four of Xavier and Lorna Villareal children. He was always thinking ahead of the game from the time he could make decisions. His family was slowly loosing their power throughout Windenburg, and when he met Astrid he knew what needed to be done. So he married her.
Astrid was the only child of Lionel and Margaret VanHaunt, a shy and timid young girl, but not naive, except when it came to Jacques. She excelled in school and stayed to herself and studied hard. At first she was not impressed with Jacques, and tried to avoid him, but soon he won her over by his charm.  That charm was a guise, and after their youngest child Max was born, she has been trying to find a way out of the marriage.
The oldest of the Villareal’s children, Hugo Villareal is a junior in High School and loves history and food, but not in that order. His dream is to go to culinary school in Windenburg and become a Master Chef. A loner, and quiet, he is more like his mother.
Luna Villareal,  however is the complete opposite of her older brother. She is outgoing, friendly and wants to be the leader of every club or organization she is involved in, which is many. She continues to tell her mother that she wants to move to Del Sol Valley when she grows up and be the next Oprah Winfrisims.
Max, who is just a toddler is already a handful. Astrid knows when he gets older he is going to be their problem child for sure.

York Household: Chapter 9, Part 4
Time for a York family brunch!
Tumblr media
The Yorks are Italian so if you see them using words that don't look like English it's Italian, or what google assures me is Italian. Caro/Cara: Dear Buongiorno: Good morning Piccolo: Little one Tesoro: Treasure Nonno: Grandfather Nonna: Grandmother Si: Yes Grazie: Thank you Per Favore: Please Buon Compleanno: Happy Birthday
Paris has been watching some kids TV in the apartment she shares with Deanna but, eventually getting bored, starts playing with an infant toy she found in Kelly’s toybox. Perks of being a childish sim.
Deanna: I’m done!
Paris: You are?
Deanna: Well 3 out of 4 lots of homework but I’m to tired to do more
Paris: You can always do it tomorrow
Deanna: And how about you? Can I do you tonight?
Paris: *coyly* If you want
Deanna: I do want
Tumblr media
Aaron: Think we can woohoo without a kid barging in saying Kelly made them cry
Calista: I think the kids he hangs out with are tougher than that
After the pair are satisfied Calista cuddles up beside Aaron as he plays with her hair.
Calista: Por favore, can you be in good Nonno mode for brunch
Aaron: What do you mean
Calista: No telling Rilian he’s coddled or Alfred that he's the better twin. They’re speaking now, they can catch on
Aaron: *sighs* Rilian cries at the drop of a hat
Calista pinches Aaron.
Aaron: Fine, fine! I’ll try keep my annoyance to a minimum
At long last the whole house slumbers.
Tumblr media
Devin: Buongiorno pa
Aaron: Cara, you’re here
Devin: Forget fashionable late I’d far rather be fashionably early
Deanna: Shh! They’re sleeping
Devin: Why is the lounge full of sleeping kids at almost 11am
Aaron: I think Kelly kept them up late with his spooky stories. We should probably get them up before brunch starts though
Devin: Yep. I don’t need any kid stealing all of ma’s omelettes
Tumblr media
The family arrive for brunch and while Calista gets the last of Kelly’s guests on their way Aaron puts the toddlers in the high chairs.
Aaron: Here we have some omelettes cooked by your nonna, just for you
Alfred: For me
Devin: Si. Make sure you eat it before it gets cold
Alfred: No eat. Talk mama
Devin: Rilian, will you please eat
Rilian: It poison?
Calista: I don’t know what your cheeky Zio Kelly told you, but I would never give you poison. I promise, I made this with love and it tastes very good
Tumblr media
Devin takes time to encourage Rilian to eat, he’s a picky eater, but eventually he starts to nibble on the omelette. His little face lights up and he begins to tuck in happily. Of course nonno Aaron is oblivious to this show of superior twin power as he’s over with the second generation of Yorks to eat.
Tumblr media
Luna: How is the nectar garden going
Calista: We’re still waiting for the fruit to grow but-
Rilian: I DONE
Luna: *tuts* Rilian it is not good to interrupt. I am happy you finished your meal though
Alfred: This good nonna
Devin: What do we say
Alfred: Tank? Tank nonna
Calista: *smiles* at least he’s trying
Luna: We figure we’ll teach them grazie and danke after they know what thank you actually means
Tumblr media
Aaron: How are you today Rilian? *looks at Calista deliberately*
Rilian: *smiles* I good good nonno. I eat up
Aaron: Oh? Molto bene
Rilian: *looks puzzled*
Devin: It’s Italian caro, you’ll learn in time
Rilian: Oh. Nonna can I out
Calista: Since you have finished eating sure
Joey: I see you also ate yours Alfred
Alfred: Yes Zio Joey *blows kiss*
Joey: aww, thanks piccolo
Tumblr media
Freed from his chair Rilian toddles around and toddles right into Kelly.
Rilian: Zio Ke, Zio Ke! I eat up
Kelly: Did you now? How do you know it wasn’t poison
Rilian: *thinks* it taste good, mo bean (molto bene)
Kelly: That’s good news. You’ll have enough energy to survive then
Rilian: Huh
Kelly: See I was bitten last night and now I’m a MONSTER
Rilian: *jumps out of skin*
Tumblr media
Rilian: *wailing*
Kelly: Shut up you’re fine
Rilian: *cries loudly* NONNO ZIO KE MEAN
Aaron: *sighs* Coming Rilian
Rilian: *sniffles and smiles at Kelly*
Kelly: Oh you little poop you're totally acting
Aaron: What’s going on over here then
Tumblr media
Alfred: Up nonna up
Calista: Here I come. Uh oh, sounds like Rilian might be having some trouble
Alfred: I help, I snuggle
Calista: *hugging tightly* That’s right, you’re a snuggle bug aren’t you piccolo. All right, down we go
Alfred: I free, I free
Aaron: Kelly what did you do?
Kelly: He’s fine, he just smiled at me!
Rilian: *sniffles* Nonno Zio Ke scare *pouts*
Aaron: *sighs* You decided it was a good idea to scare a three year old?
Tumblr media
Kelly: I said I was a monster and he overreacted
Aaron: Kelly he’s a toddler, of course monsters are scary
Rilian: *sniffles* Nonno I sad
Aaron: Don’t worry Rilian, we can find something fun. As for you Kelly, time out
Kelly: *sighs* nobody has a sense of humour in this family
Defeated he goes and sits. Alfred comes over and tries talking to him but like normal Kelly prefers to ignore his nephews. Meanwhile Aaron scoops Rilian up and plays with him until he’s calmed down properly.
Tumblr media
So what do we reackon folks? I'm still not 100% certain what happened with Kelly and Rilian. Reminder to read the whole option before clicking (it's me, I only read half the sentence then realise I was too eager to click)

Villareal Household: Chapter 5, Part 7
The picnic catch up continues, Devin pays her parents a visit, and Luna and Devin think about if another pregnancy is wise.
Tumblr media
For ease of reading if the toddlers are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets when they do not use the whole word. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian.
Schatz (German) meaning treasure Schnucki (German) meaning sweetie but doesn't have an exact translation Bambino/s (Italian) meaning male child/children Amore (Italian) meaning love Piccolo (Italian) meaning little one Caro (Italian) meaning dear Zia/Zio (Italian) meaning aunt/uncle Nonna/Nonno (Italian) meaning grandfather/grandmother
Devin: You didn’t want to bring Viola
Cassandra: Turns out, the twins are not her biggest fans
Charlie: Oh duck, what’s that like
Cassandra: At the moment it’s fine. Viola doesn’t understand enough to be bothered
Devin: And the girls
Cassandra: *laughs* they think an infant is like a chicken, say boo enough and it will just leave
While the grown ups laugh Rilian has had enough splashing and wanders over to Clover. He waves hello and Clover barks happily in response.
Tumblr media
Charlie: Think they’ll grow out of it
Cassandra: Rahul is trying to talk them into it. But we want at least one more kid so they’ll have to adapt
Charlie: Being part of a big family does have perks. How about you Devin, will you and Luna have another
Devin: Well…
Cassandra: Come on, it’s us
Devin: She wants another one, at least she said so during the pregnancy. But then the postpartum depression happened. I worry that if it happened once it’ll happen again if we have another
Tumblr media
Charlie: You could always adopt. Me and Kaori will eventually
Devin: I know but… Bloodlines are important to Luna, she really wants kids she’s related to
Cassandra: Everyone is allowed to have their own priorities
Devin: I do like seeing mini mixes of me and Luna bobbling about if I’m honest
Charlie: You’d better have more since you brought that toddler play palace
Devin: *laughs* It does take up an awful amount of space, I swear I checked the measurements before I ordered it
Tumblr media
Devin: I think we had better start on these sandwiches before they spoil
Alfred: Race Me say dess? (Shall we race Mercedes)
Mercedes: *scoffs and speeds up*
Rilian: Aunt Cass, you eat
Cassandra: Of course, food helps you grow big and strong
Rilian: *whispers* I not eat
Devin: Rilian! Come on! Don’t think I missed your half-eaten breakfast caro
Tumblr media
Charlie: What is this
Devin: BLT
Charlie: Shouldn’t it have B, you know, bacon
Devin: It’s faux if you want to get technical
Alfred: yum yum
Savannah: It nice taste
Cassandra: How about you Mercedes, is it okay
Mercedes: Yes. Thank you Aunt Devin
Devin: You’re very welcome
Tumblr media
For a while it’s quiet as all the little ones are eating.
Cassandra: It’s less noisy here than I expected
Devin: I think it’s because there’s so few houses up here, no one really drives by you know
Charlie: You can’t even get vehicles up to our house. The mountain is car free
Cassandra: How’s that going? You adjusting…
Charlie: Adjusting to knowing I have to live there forever and work to maintain it… it’s a process. But Kaori makes everything worth it, I’d never leave her
Tumblr media
The toddlers are finished and toddle off.
Cassandra: Hey Charlie, you want to hear a story that’ll make you happy to be a lesbian
Charlie: I’m always happy but sure
A few minutes later…
Devin bursts into raucous laughter while Charlie looks horrified.
Charlie: Oh dear watcher thank you for not making me straight! Male pixel parts are *gags*
Meanwhile Rilian has used the distraction to dump his half eaten sandwich in the library, sneaky sneak.
Tumblr media
Picnic over Devin takes the bambinos to visit their nonno and nonna.
Calista: Nice to get a visit from a starlet
Devin: *chuckles* We got the photos from the birthday done and wanted to give you your copies
Alfred: Hi Zi De (Zia Deanna)
Deanna: Hi Alfred, how are you today
Alfred: *hides behind his hands*
Rilian: K, K, K (Kelly Kelly Kelly)
Kellly: *sighs* Yes Rilian, what do you want
Rilian: Hi Zi K (Zio Kelly)
Kelly: *rolls eyes*
Tumblr media
Rilian: You eat Zi K (Zio Kelly)
Kelly: Do I eat? Of course I eat
Rilian blubbers and Kelly tries to ignore him and focus on TV.
Rilian: Food uck uck (yuck yuck)
Kelly: I agree, some food is way too yuck to eat. *evil idea pops in head* But hey, do you know why some food tastes yuck?
...
Aaron: Hey cara
Devin: Hey pa, how are you
Aaron: Good. Did I hear someone say photos
Devin: Right here
Alfred meanwhile is being fussed over by his nonna who happily scoops him up to snuggle.
Tumblr media
Devin finds a sad Rilian and pulls some funny faces to try cheer him up.
Devin: What were you doing with my son
Kelly: Chill out, we were just talking about food. He told me about how he didn’t eat all his lunch and I said you shouldn’t eat food if it’s yuck food
Devin: *sighs* Please tell me you didn’t Kelly
Kelly: What? *deliberately looking at Rilian* Everyone knows yuck food means it has poison which will kill you
Rilian nods.
Devin: It’s not poison
Rilian: Uck food no eat, I die (No eat yuck food or I die)
Devin: I’m leaving before you give him any more evil ideas
Tumblr media
Back home Devin tried to help Rilian potty, and again Alfred went independently and was pleased despite making a puddle. Afterwards the bambinos needed a nap after their long day. They slept long enough that Luna had time to go for a swim, develop a fear of swimming, and practice her debate skill.
Tumblr media
Luna: What did I miss today
Devin: Both bambinos reached level 3 communication skill so-
Rilian: We talk!
Luna: Well do you eat
Alfred: I eat. I eat fast.
Devin: Rilian…
Rilian: *innocently* Yes mama
Devin: Please eat your sandwich
Rilian: I did bite mama
Alfred: I finish
Rilian pulls a face at his brother.
Tumblr media
Devin: The rest of us are eating
Rilian: *ignores Devin* Alfred, you see-
Luna: Rilian, schnucki, why aren’t you eating
Rilian: Uck food no eat, I die (No eat yuck food or I die)
Devin groans and Alfred laughs while Luna looks very confused.
Rilian: Uck food piss in. Zi K say (Yuck food has poison in it, Zio Kelly said so)
Devin: I’m so sorry Lu. I went to see ma and pa and he wandered off and talked to Kelly
Tumblr media
Rilian: Zi K (Zio Kelly) good
Luna: Said nobody, ever
Alfred: Zi (Zio) Joey fun. Where Zi (Zio) Joey
Devin: He’s just out getting the last of his stuff caro, he’ll be back
Rilian: I no need eat. I…
Luna: Yes…
Rilian: I… *motions with his hands to show big*
Devin: You’re full?
Rilian: Yes! No hung no more (Not hungry any more)
Tumblr media
Luna: Bath time anyone
Rilian: With bubbly mummy
Alfred: Carry me mama
Luna takes Rilian into her bathroom for his bath while Devin carries Alfred to the bathroom beside the nursery. As usual the bambinos spend more time playing than trying to get clean.
Rilian: Splash splash
Luna: How about trying to keep the water in the tub schnucki
Alfred: This duck and I bird
Devin: Is that right piccolo
Alfred: I have bird shirt
Tumblr media
Luna: Sleep time
Rilian: No mummy, story time
Devin: Do you two want a story
Alfred: Yes mama, story time
Luna: What do we say
Twins: PLEASE
Devin: Let’s see, where were we last time
Alfred: Long neck
Rilian: No *yawns* spike dino
Alfred: Long *yawns* neck *yawns* mummy
Tumblr media
It doesn’t take many pages for the bambinos to fall asleep, they had a big day and while naps helped them stay awake for dinner the warm baths made them sleepy.
Devin: So Lu, I was talking with Cass and Charlie
Luna: How were they
Devin: OMW Cass had this hilarious story- but we were talking about kids and it got me thinking, will we have more kids?
Luna: Of course we will. Why would you wonder about that?
Devin: Well we haven’t broached the subject since the post-partum depression
Luna: Why does that make a difference
Tumblr media
Devin: It was hard for me to see you like that, and I know it was hard for you to go through-
Luna: It was rough, that’s for sure, but I want kids! More kids
Devin: It’s just, if you had it once then, you’ll be more likely to get it again right
Luna: Oh… I guess I hadn’t thought about that. Are you saying you won't let us have more kids
Devin: I’m not saying that amore. Please don’t get me wrong, I’d love more kids with you when the bambinos get older. But your mental health is important, I don’t want to lose you just to get another child
Luna: Hey, you’re not going to lose me. If you’re not confident enough to chance it now, we can wait until the bambinos get older, would that make you feel better
Devin: Deal. Now amore, let me show you all my confidence
Tumblr media
Night falls in Del Sol Valley and the Villareal’s are wrapped! The twin toddlers are sleeping soundly while Devin and Luna are holding off on trying for another pregnancy.

Villareal Household: Chapter 5, Part 6
In this part Devin becomes a regular for season 2 of ZBB: Apocalypse Rising. Back home the stay over continues, as does Rilian being a picky eater. Lastly Devin prepares to host a picnic.
Tumblr media
For ease of reading if the toddlers are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets when they do not use the whole word. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian.
Schatz (German) meaning treasure Schnucki (German) meaning sweetie but doesn't have an exact translation Bambino/s (Italian) meaning male child/children Amore (Italian) meaning love Piccolo (Italian) meaning little one Caro (Italian) meaning dear Tante/Onkel (German) meaning aunt/uncle
Luna: Shooting day, exciting
Devin: It always is! I’m go glad Norah hired me for another season, she’s such fun to work with. You’re not working today right?
Luna: Nope! I’ll be trying to focus on improving my research skill, I want this next promotion
Early riser Alfred is up early so Devin potty trains him while Luna eats. Afterwards Luna carries Alfred to his high chair for breakfast. Devin wakes up Rilian and tries again to coach him on the potty. He has an accident anyway.
Tumblr media
Devin: Come on Rillian, breakfast time
Rilian: No mama, me no carry (I do not want to be carried)
Devi: Sorry caro but mama has to be on set by midday, we don’t have time for you to walk yourself
Rilian pouts and grumbles the entire way.
Devin: See, we have nice cereal
Rilian: *hums to self, ignores cereal*
Devin: Come on caro, at least try some before you turn it down
Tumblr media
Rilian: food uck uck (yuck yuck)
Max: What’s going on in here
Devin: We’re refusing to eat our breakfast
Max: That’s it buddy, rebel against the system
Rilian: Onk Max si si *giggles* (Onkel Max silly)
Devin: Thanks for the support
Max: It’s what I’m here for
Eventually Rilian empties his bowl and sings Devin a song about food, getting none of the food words right.
Tumblr media
Devin and Rilian walk to where Alfred is playing on the tablet by Luna who is debating the mirror again.
Devin: Now bambinos mama has to go but mama will be back, promise
Rilian: Mama play?
After a rousing play session Devin is almost out the door when Alfred requests a hug
Alfred: Bye bye mama, me love
Devin: Is that a sentence
Luna: As a professor of language I can assure you, it was not a sentence. At least, not yet
Devin: You two keep working on talking while I’m out. Te amo amore, back later
Tumblr media
Rudolphus: Why are we doing this zombie show again
Devin: We need to pay rent
Rudolphus: Like you pay rent
Devin: I pay property taxes. Plus Norah asked
Emily: Oh gosh, they did not take good photos for continuity last time, who was even running this department
Devin: Can you find the costume
Emily: I think so, just be careful with it. If you’re becoming a regular I’ll redo it so it’s more interesting for the camera
Devin: Thank Emily, I’ll try not to dent it when I fall
Emily: That’s not funny
Devin: But there’s a scene where I fall
Emily: *sighs* Of course there is
Tumblr media
Devin: Season 2! How’d you get the network to let me in after my character was killed off
Norah: Honey once you won that award they were happy to let me write you back in
Devin: I missed you Norah. Movie sets weren’t the same without you. So, any notes for how I should play the revival scene
Norah: *sighs*
Devin: Hey, you okay
Norah: This co-star they hired… the only simlish she knows is her lines
Devin: You’re kidding
Norah: I wish I was, thank the watcher we’ve got you
Devin: I’ll go talk to her, she’s got to know hello right?
Tumblr media
Devin: Hello Tadelech, I’m Devin. It’s nice to meet you
Tadelech: It wasn’t the same once the bugs came
Devin: *blanks* Shall we run our lines then
Devin pulls out her script and Tadelech figures out what she means. Despite not knowing simlish to communicate Tadelech is delivering her lines wonderfully, she clearly loves acting.
Tumblr media
Devin: It’s going to be fine. Tadelech knows her lines, that’s all she needs
Norah: I hope so, this show is just so important to me
Devin: Norah your work always speaks for itself, trust me, she can do this and you’ll have quality content
Norah remains dubious but starts filming. First up is Devin’s monologue. In it she recaps what happened on the first season and reveals that her character was merely assumed to be dead. In actuality she’s still alive, kicking and fighting the bugs!
Tumblr media
Devin: Mina Mina Mina, you look a-mina-mazing
Mina: Rudolphus is an artist with the make up. Regular selfie?
Devin: Always
Norah: ACTION
Devin: Listen to me, this isn’t you! The bugs are inside you, changing you
Mina: The only thing that’s changed is I can see you for the coward you are
The two then pull off the choreographed fight sequence, trusting special effects to make it look realistic.
Norah: CUT
Devin breathes a sigh of relief and moves on to the next scene.
Tumblr media
ACTION
Devin picks up the discarded looking guitar and begins to play. They’ll add the proper tune in when it’s edited but she still likes to play what should be played. Then it’s across the stage to where Tadelech waits expectantly. Together they run through the reunion scene, selling that their characters have known each other all along.
CUT
Tumblr media
Final scene of the day leaves Devin’s character in a precarious position. Will she return for a third season? It depends on fan response.
When Devin gets home the twins are excited to see her and begin to babble incoherently.
Devin: Woah woah woah, let’s talk over dinner huh
Luna: Come on schnucki, up we go
Rilian: up mummy up
Devin: Today we’re going to try some delicious peas
Alfred: Why pez (peas)
Luna: To help you both grow big and strong
Tumblr media
Alfred and Rilian babble to each other while the grown ups talk.
Devin: Poor thing didn’t know any simlish
Luna: None at all?
Devin: Technically she knew her lines
Joey: Did she understand what she was saying
Devin: I think so, I mean her acting seemed accurate
Luna: So you did all the scenes they needed you for
Devin: And I got gold because I’m fabulous
Tumblr media
Potty time and neither twin has reached level 2 yet. I know it’s because I have skill difficulty higher than normal, but I do wish I could make the potty skill exempt. Then it’s story time to get the bambinos to sleep, followed by tucking in and kisses. While Luna does some more debate practice, Devin dives into trying to pick up Windenburgish.
Tumblr media
Luna: Did you sleep well
Devin: I did, but I’m pretty excited for today
Luna: Say hi to Cassandra and Charlie for me
Devin: Will do
Luna heads to the garden to harvest where Miriam finds her, I swear Miriam always hangs around the garden. Luna then makes fruit salad for breakfast and chats to her brothers who will be leaving later on today.
Tumblr media
Alfred: Mama what do (what are you doing)
Devin: Just updating my social media. You ready for potty practice
Alfred: Me do, me do, no we (I can do it, don't need to do it as a team)
Rilian: Mama help me
Devin: Since your brother apparently doesn’t need my superior guidance of course I can help you Rilian
They shuffle in to the bathroom and Devin coaches Rilian while Alfred tries by himself. Both methods seem to work as the bambinos reach level 2 potty!
Tumblr media
Devin: Mummy was making breakfast, who wants a lift
Alfred: Me mama, me
Rilian: No no no
Devin: Okay then. Rilian can you keep up
Rilian: Yes. I bob (walk) mama
In the kitchen they all grab plates and begin to eat.
Tumblr media
Luna has headed off to work and Devin begins preparation for todays event, friends kid friendly catch up. She’s making some BLT’s for the guests when the bambinos finish eating and head for the stereo to dance.
Devin: Rilian, caro, did you finish yours
Rilian: *pulls cheeky face* yes mama
Devin: Good job
Alfred: Rili not-
Rilian: Shh Alfe, shhh
Tumblr media
Lastly Devin makes some lemonade in case anyone wants it. Rilian and Alfred are pretty happy with the yard, now full of toddler toys after Devin’s latest paycheck cleared. They hug in excitement. The guests arrive! Devin’s BFF’s Cassandra and Charlie. Cassandra brought Savannah and Mercedes (friendly reminder they’re around *checks* five and a half, while Devin’s bambinos are 3 and a quarter today). Charlie not having human children brought her furbaby Clover.
Tumblr media
Alfred: Hi
Mercedes: Who are you
Alfred: Me is Alfred
Devin: Thanks for coming over
Cassandra: Of course, we haven’t had a hangout with just us three in ages
Charlie: Are we just going to ignore the kids
Cassandra: My girls can entertain themselves, mostly…
Devin: So long as I can keep eyeline with the pond, everyone should be fine to amuse themselves
Tumblr media
Alfred continues to try babbling to a more literate Mercedes. Water loving Rilian meanwhile goes and has a splash about in the pond in his gumboots. In the yard Devin settles where she can keep an eye on him, and happily catches up with her best friends.

Villareal Household: Chapter 5, Part 2
In this part the family break in their new house. The twins become good friends, Luna enjoys spring cleaning, and Devin gets some exciting news from her last director!
Tumblr media
For ease of reading IF the infants are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets, otherwise it's babble. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian.
Schatz (German) meaning treasure Schnucki (German) meaning sweetie but doesn't have an exact translation Bambino/s (Italian) meaning male child/children Amore (Italian) meaning love Piccolo (Italian) meaning little one Caro (Italian) meaning dear Zia/Zio (Italian) meaning aunt/uncle Tante/Onkel (German) meaning aunt/uncle
Alfred and Rilian are content to play in the nursery and babble to each after. After a short while however their sleepiness catches up with them and they both fall asleep on the new rug.
Tumblr media
At the gate Devin begins her usual livestream of her run. Yes this is obviously a big security concern, but she’s a sim and doesn’t think about these things. Luna however makes herself at home in the back garden. She replanted the garden and some plants were ready to evolve. She does her best to deal with some bugs that seem to have become attached to the plants in the move, and pulls what weeds she can.
Tumblr media
Devin: Mama is back bambinos! Who’s ready for a diaper change?
Alfred lazily stretches out and looks towards Devin. Rilian meanwhile scoots himself into the super secret hiding space of beside the laundry basket so he doesn’t have to go first.
Devin: *in jest* Oh no, where has Rilian gone? He isn't here
Rilian: *giggles* I hi goo (hide good)
Devin: I’ll do you as soon as Alfred is done
Tumblr media
Devin: Oh dear watcher that- *gags*
Rilian: *blows raspberry*
Devin: You can say that again. I think we’re clean now Alfred, down you go
Devin switches twins and has just begun to clean up Rilian when he pees all over her. She is pretty disgusted by it but Rilian simply giggles playfully to her.
Devin: I hope this mean you won’t use your diaper as soon as I put it on
Tumblr media
Luna: Sleepwear time I think
Alfred: Mummy ah ah (up up)
Luna gets him changed and while Devin works on the mess Rilian has made. She then carries Alfred to the dining area.
Luna: Stay here just a minute Alfred, mummy will grab some food
Alfred looks around him and chooses to think about the bin behind him. I guess there’s no accounting for taste.
Tumblr media
Devin gets Rilian seated as Luna begins to feed the yoghurt melts to Alfred who remembers he loves them.
Devin: Shall we try these again Rilian? You were unsure but let’s try be brave huh
Rilian: *blows raspberry*
Devin: Please try for mama. Open up, here comes the yummy
Rilian closes his mouth around the yoghurt melt and contemplates. He likes it! Now the parents can start eating.
Tumblr media
Luna: Alfred are you showing your brother how to eat
Alfred: Mummy ba flu im (I'll show him)
Devin: Rilian is sort of shovelling them in now
Alfred: Ri si si (Rilian silly silly) mama
Devin: I think I may have understood that
Luna: He is a little talker isn’t he. We did good schatz
Devin: You did good, you grew them first
Devin pulls a silly face at the boys and they both burst out laughing.
Luna: we better give them some milk since half of Alfred’s went on his face and Rilian is playing with his
Tumblr media
Devin: Drink up caro
Luna: Alfred you can’t just guzzle, you know gas makes your tummy hurt
Alfred pouts but when he gets the bottle back tries going slower.
Devin: Can I do bedtime
Luna: Sure, I want to clean up the dishes, and the disaster site that is Alfred’s high chair
Devin: Oh, it’s just a burp this time!
Luna: How about you schnucki? Please just gas, please just gas…
Alfred complies and burps tiny bubbles out.
Tumblr media
Devin: Come on bambinos, night night time
Alfred: Mama lo ew ch
Devin: Up we go caro. Hang in there Rilian, we just need to put Alfred to bed first
Rilian despite being in the back carrier doesn’t agree that he should have to wait for Alfred to be put in his crib and begins to wail...
Devin: Just a minute caro. Okay Alfred, you have a good sleep. Mama loves you very much. Mummy loves you to
Rilian: WAHHHHHHH
Devin: We’re putting you to bed right now, calm caro calm
Tumblr media
Devin: I got them to sleep
Luna: Did you now
The two walk to the nursery where the boys are indeed snoring away.
Luna: I guess their mama has the touch
Devin: Follow me and I’ll show you a touching technique I have just for you
Devin: Are you happy with the house
Luna: It has you and me and the kids, it’s perfect
Devin: Te amo amore mio
Luna: Ich liebe dich schatz
Tumblr media
She sun is shining and spring has arrived! Devin makes sure to change the boys diapers before she begins feeding them, still remembering Alfred’s last blowout.
Luna: How are we all this morning
Devin: Dressed for the cold weather
Luna: In those shorts
Devin: *laughs* I meant the bambinos
Luna: Come here schnucki, you smell like you need a change
Devin: Wait... Don’t tell me he used his diaper right after I changed him
Luna: Yep. Rilian did to
Devin: Bambinos! You’re making me look bad. At least we avoided disaster I guess
Tumblr media
Luna: Will they be okay on the mats
Devin: Of course, we need breakfast
Luna: Happy spring cleaning day! I make no apologies for loving it
Devin: *laughs* You do you Lu. I need to check in with some co-workers before the shoot starts tomorrow. Levi says he’s got big news
Luna: I might take the boys out to the garden with me
Devin: That sounds like a wonderful idea
So while Devin waits for her guests to walk up the hill Luna sets out to tidy, watched on by Alfred and Rilian who are keen to explore the back yard.
Tumblr media
The two infants look around the garden in awe, and babble reassuringly to each other. With a smile to his brother Afred scoots himself over to a plant. While Rilian chomps down on a rattle Alfred investigates the dirt, sending a dust cloud flying over them both.
Tumblr media
Devin: What’s the news
Levi: Melodies of the City made a big buzz with the right people, we’ve been nominated for some accolades!
Devin: Shut up
Mina: He’s serious. You for actress, Connor for actor, me for supporting and Lee for directing
Devin: Oh that is the best news! The award ceremony is tonight right
Mina: You bet it is
Levi: If any of us win it’ll generate interest in the next project
Devin: Oh my gosh, the next project! I almost forgot!
Mina: About filiming?
Devin: No. Excuse me, I need to call my brother
Tumblr media
Kelly: You want me to do what
Devin: Yell at me, really let loose. I need to research anger for this role and, well, you’re the most prickly person I know
Kelly: And you won’t tell ma and pa
Devin: Nope. So don’t be afraid to chuck in some cuss words
Kelly: You actors are so ducking stupid
Devin: I wouldn’t say- wait have you started?
Kelly: Obviously you skinny moron
Tumblr media
Devin: That seems a bit harsh, I do try to get more curvy but with my workout schedule-
Kelly: I DON’T CARE. Be skinny, be big, it makes no difference to me. Anger is about not giving a duck what the other person thinks Devin
Devin: Oh, right. Let’s do this
Kelly delivers one epic rant about everything wrong in his life while Devin takes it all in. When he’s finished Devin has her own mini rant to see if she’s got it.
Kelly: That’s it! Crush my soul!
Devin: Not today gremlin, have a safe trip home
Kelly: Ew, you’ll give me girl cooties
Devin: Have fun being sick and dying
Kelly leaves doing his best zombie impression on the way out.
Tumblr media
Luna has to write a scholarly paper for work and doesn’t want to wake the twins up. They seem happy enough to sleep on the warm grass. Devin turns on her drone and begins to swim laps, keeping an ear out for any crying noises.
CLICK
Devin: Hey, did you hear that
CLICK
Drone: *beeps yes*
CLICK
Devin: Weird, I’m pretty sure nether of them can click their fingers yet
On the other side of the hedge paparazzi Ali continues to shoot pictures, clearly unaware Devin is streaming her swimming to the world for no cost…
Tumblr media
Rilian wakes up and studies the gnomes. It doesn’t take long for his stinky diaper to spread its odor down the lawn to  where Devin swims.
Devin: Looks like I’ll have to end the stream early folks, mama duty calls. Remember to tune in to the starlight accolades tonight to see me! That’s done, come here caro
Alfred wakes up and immediately begins crying. Yes, he soiled his diaper, but also he just woke up sad.
Devin: Come here piccolo mio, mama can make it better
Tumblr media
Devin: Are we feeling sad caro
Alfred: *pouts*
Devin: 🎵If you’re happy and you know it smile for mama, if you’re happy and you know it smile for mama🎶
Alfred begins to grin and on the ground Rilian giggles.
Devin: 🎵If you’re happy and you know it and you really want to show it, if you're happy and you know it smile for mama🎶
With Alfred successfully cheered up Devin begins feeding the boys an early dinner.
Tumblr media
Devin: You stay in the back carrier for a bit piccolo mio, Rilian needs milk as well
Alfred looks about the garden while his brother has his bottle. Towards the end I get nervous about what could happen if Rilian spits up, Alfred is in the way! Luckily Rilian just burps bubbles out.
Devin: Who’s ready for night night? I know it’s early but Zia Deanna will get you up when mama’s category is on the TV

Chopra Household: Chapter 5, Part 4
The baby shower continues, Lavina pops by and celebrates her birthday, then it's hospital time!
Tumblr media
James: I know you have most of the stuff from your first two but Alexander and I wanted to get you a little something
Rahul: Oh James, you shouldn’t have
James: Nonsense. Can’t take the money with me. I know Dina is still being territorial about the Goth capital and I thought you two, sorry you five, deserved a bit of cushioning while you’ll be on family leave
Cassandra: Come inside, I’ve missed you lot
Charlie: Thanks for letting us bring Clover
Cassandra: We have so many animals here, what’s an extra good dog
Tumblr media
Cassandra: I don’t understand why everything is so much more swollen this time
Devin: This is why you don’t get pregnant, right Charlie?
Charlie: Amen to that
Luna: I got quite big with the boys but luckily it seems to disappear pretty quickly after birth
Charlie: Yeah you are not changing my mind Luna
Devin: What are you making
Rahul: It’s meant to be cereal marshmallow squares but I think something went wrong
Devin: This is why I cook and Luna handles the baking. Anyway, do you two have some name ideas
Tumblr media
Savannah notices Milton is feeling sad. She goes over and sits near him.
Savannah: Milton, I sorry
Milton: Huh
Savannah: I sorry I ask for password
Milton: Oh, no it’s fine Savannah, I’m not upset about that
Savannah: Uncle want some funny faces
Milton: It couldn’t hurt
Meanwhile Mercedes has again conned Alexander in to roughhouse play. She can’t do it with Cassandra while she’s pregnant so is getting in what she can with the visitors.
Lavina: I’m here! Sorry I’m late, traffic
Tumblr media
Milton: What are you doing
Mercedes: Dancing. I good
Milton: I bet you’re excited about the new baby huh? Even though you’re still a baby, look at those cheeks
Milton leans forward to pinch them but Mercedes is too quick. Rather than her being pinched, Milton ends up with his fingers bitten. All the adults are too busy to notice so no one gets told off.
Tumblr media
Lavina: How’s my brilliant grandbaby? Shall we practice some flashcards
Cassandra: She’s working on her numbers
Lavina: Oh how clever
Mercedes: *pouts*
Cassandra: Mercedes is getting better with her talking, she’s learning animals
Lavina: That's nice dear. Okay Savannah, what number is this
Savannah: Three!
Lavina: And this one
Savannah tries to peek around the card but Lavina tells her not to cheat.
Tumblr media
With the baby shower over the twins get sandwiches while Rahul presents his mother with a cake.
Lavina: What is this
Rahul: You didn’t think I’d forget you turning 65 did you
Lavina: *scoffs* you needn’t say it quite so loud dear
Cassandra: It’s okay Lavina, we’re all family
Savannah: CAKE
Cassandra: No honeybee, you eat your sandwich
Lavina: Guess there’s no avoiding it. Here’s to elderhood!
Tumblr media
Rahul attends to some chores while Cassandra has a much needed nap and the girls play outside.
Lavina: What are you doing in there
Savannah: Playing
Lavina: You don’t want to learn
Savannah: Play is learn-ding
Lavina: I see, okay dear, carry on
Tumblr media
Mercedes: Nana, nana
Lavina: *sighs* yes dear, what is it
Mercedes: I learn words
Lavina: You mean learned. You learned words. And if you got that sentence wrong I do wonder
Mercedes gets mad and hits Lavina
Mercedes: I do learn nana
Lavina: Go away and hit something else, I’m not talking to you if you’re going to be like that
Tumblr media
Cassandra wakes up and gets the two girls into their high chairs
Cassandra: Let’s see, how hungry are we
The girls aren’t overly hungry as they had sandwiches not long ago but Cassandra gets them milk to drink while she has dinner.
Mercedes: Mama, nana mean, she not like me
Cassandra: I’m sure she likes you
Savannah: Nana talk to me but not Mercedes
Cassandra: Really? Well I’ll talk to nana about it okay darlings, can’t have any sad faces here
Mercedes: Mama when baby here, where we
Cassandra: You’ll keep your room
Savannah: What about when baby coming
Cassandra: Oh! Okay when papa and I head to the hospital, Uncle Alexander will look after you
Mercedes: You be long
Cassandra: I hope not ladybug
Tumblr media
Rahul: Bedtime I think
Mercedes: Papa I made yuck
Rahul: *sighs* come with me then
Mercedes: Papa, why table move
Rahul: Because the baby will need it more than you and your sister, so it’s back here in the nursery
Mercedes: Baby like me and Savannah
Rahul: I hope so, but it’s hard for babies to communicate ladybug, they might not seem like they do at first
Mercedes: Papa have time for story
Rahul: Absolutely, come on
Tumblr media
Rahul reads Mercedes to sleep, Savannah took herself to the potty and climbed in bed while Mercedes was getting changed. Cassandra needs to lie down but once both girls are in bed she can’t help herself. She gets up, waddles across the house, and kisses them each goodnight.
Tumblr media
Mr Cluckton: *crows* Hear ye, hear ye, IT'S TIME
Cassandra: The coop is further away and he still manages to- AH dear watcher
Rahul: Does that mean what I think it means? Is the baby ready?
Cassandra: Yeah, I’m pretty sure they’re ready to come out
Rahul: Okay, you get to the cars and we’ll drop the girls at your brothers on the way
Hospital time!
Tumblr media
Cassandra: Where is Dr Eriksson?
Rahul: The nurse said she’s not here at the moment but don’t worry, she could still show up
Cassandra: Can you help me? My lower back is killing me
The couple move over to the exercise ball and Rahul sets about trying to massage some of Cassandra’s pain away. He’s not very successful though.
Cassandra: Rahul, for the love of the watcher, please go shave that beard, it’s stressing me out
Rahul: Right away my darling
Cassandra stands and her water breaks dramatically over the floor.
Tumblr media
Cassandra mopes sadly on the bed while Rahul is busy.
Dr E: Did someone call for a doctor
Cassandra: Thank goodness, I really need some painkillers
Dr E: No problem dear. Turn around and we’ll give you the epidural. Remember it takes a while to kick in
Cassandra: But then we can do the c-section
Dr E: Absolutely. Now if anything feels off, tell me right away
Tumblr media
?: Oh my, Mrs Chopra, can I have an autograph
Dr E: Not now dear
Rahul: Who’s this
Dr E: My husband, the other Dr Eriksson. I’m afraid he’s a fan and often has no bedside manner
Cassandra: Look, I’m really not in any state to give autographs right now
Rahul: You heard my wife. If you’re not here to help with the birth, please leave us in peace
Tumblr media
Dr E: I am so sorry about him, believe me we’ll be having words
Cassandra: I think I just need to do some breathing while the epidural gets started
Rahul: Does everything look okay Dr Eriksson
Dr E: Oh yes Mr Chopra, nothing to indicate any problems
Rahul: We’ve just noticed Cassandra has put on more weight than she did with the twins
Dr E: Pregnancies are never exactly the same. I believe you get quite a lot of milk in Mrs Chopra
Cassandra: I did last time, but it took a while
Dr E: Your body is likely getting ready in advance. Now how’s the pain
Cassandra: I think I’m ready
Dr E: Brilliant. You two know the way, I'll be there once I've scrubbed up
Tumblr media
Dr E: Remember, feeling pressure is normal but if you feel pain let me know, we can adjust the meds
Cassandra: Well big guy, here we go again
Rahul: Do you know how wonderful you are
Cassandra: I don’t but I do have this husband who tells me such things
Rahul: Looks like she’s almost there, how are you doing
Cassandra: Hanging in here
Dr E: One more cut and we can meet them
Tumblr media
Dr E: Congratulations, a healthy baby girl
Cassandra: Thank goodness, we had a bunch of girl names ready but hardly any boy options
Dr E: It looks like we will have to await the melanin awakening again unfortunately
Rahul: So long as Viola is healthy, that’s all that matters
Dr E: That’s a lovely name
Cassandra: We think so
Dr E: I’ll just close up then you three can head home
Tumblr media
Back home and it looks like Viola is keeping to tradition by inheriting Rahul’s eyes.
Mercedes: Mama papa back!
Savannah: You gone forever
Rahul: It didn’t take that long I don’t think. Now who is ready to meet their baby sister
The twins pout and look generally underwhelmed.
Cassandra: Come on over Savannah and say hi to Viola
Tumblr media
Savannah: Hi. I done mama
Cassandra: How about you Mercedes, can you say hello to Viola
Cassandra picks up the baby who starts to scream and Mercedes does not look impressed.
Mercedes: Too loud mama, we no sleep
Rahul: She’s on the other end of the house to you two. I think you’ll sleep just fine
Mercedes pouts but reluctantly greets her new sister.

Villareal Household: Chapter 5, Part 4
Luna and Devin catch up after work, an infant tosses a plate, and I do my best to squeeze in some milestones before the birthday party begins. My babies Devin and Luna's infants become toddlers.
Tumblr media
For ease of reading IF the infants are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets, otherwise it's babble. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian.
Schatz (German) meaning treasure Schnucki (German) meaning sweetie but doesn't have an exact translation Bambino/s (Italian) meaning male child/children Amore (Italian) meaning love Piccolo (Italian) meaning little one Caro (Italian) meaning dear Zia/Zio (Italian) meaning aunt/uncle Tante/Onkel (German) meaning aunt/uncle Nonna/Nonno (Italian) meaning grandfather/grandmother
At home Devin and Luna spend some time working with Alfred and Rilian on their crawling and standing.
Luna: How was the film shoot
Devin: Good amore, I think it might do well, despite the plot holes
Luna: Will they franchise it
Devin: If it goes well, but most superhero films star men so we’ll have to see. How was class today?
Luna: You know how I’ve been helping them with these projects
Devin: The ones they’re getting really engrossed in? I remember
Luna: Well this morning the head of the university announced that projects should be scrapped for test preparation
Tumblr media
Devin: Why on earth would that be a good idea
Luna: Apparently the university is underperforming
Devin: So what did you do
Luna: *laughs* He’s the boss but not the boss of me. I let the class present their projects before we did a small bit of test prep, they loved it
Devin: I know I loved my uni presentations. Did you get any test prep in
Luna: A bit. I don’t think they needed it because they all got fabulous marks on the test
Devin: Who’s hungry bambinos?
Rilian and Alfred: Me mama
Luna: Woah, they are getting better at this talking thing
Tumblr media
Luna: For your testing pleasure tonight gentlemen, we have…
Devin: Oaty O’s! It may look like you’re holding banana chips, but that’s just acting
Rilian blows a raspberry while Alfred wobbles in his seat. Devin begins to feed Rilian, but again the cautious bambino is unsure if he likes it or not. Luna tries feeding Alfred, and, well, there are issues. As in she tries feeding him from a jar…
Tumblr media
Alfred dislikes the food. So what does he do? Fling up his little infant arms and push the plate off the high chair… He then looks at his hands as if thinking, oh damn where did my food go. He eventually realises his snack is gone and can only sniffle in regret.
Tumblr media
Rilian happily plays with his food while Devin and Luna look forlornly at Alfred.
Luna: I guess he really doesn’t like them
Devin: It’s okay, we give them bottles as well, he won’t go hungry
Alfred: *cries*
Devin: Alfred, caro, just wait for everyone to finish eating
Luna: And for Rilian to finish playing
Tumblr media
While Rilian plays patty cake with his food Alfred has the audacity to look at the food on the floor and think, what’s that? Gee buddy, I wonder what it is, total mystery.
Devin: I think we’re all done, good job Rilian. Next time Alfred, try keep the plate in front of you
Tumblr media
On the ground Alfred blows a raspberry at the food mess, he didn’t like it anyway.
Devin: Milk time then night night I think
Luna: Come here schnucki, oh you are a wiggly bambino today
Alfred: Mummy ig ig way (I wiggle away)
The twins get put to bed and Devi works on soothing them to sleep while Luna begins the next task. Two chocolate birthday cakes for the bambino’s to have tomorrow.
Tumblr media
Luna: One cake down, one to go
Devin: I don’t know how much anyone will eat, but I suppose we need them for the age up
Luna: Have you invited everyone
Devin: My family, check. Your family, check.
Luna: Don’t forget to tell Joey about his room
Devin: Oh fudge, I had completely forgot with the awards show
Luna: And I’m thinking of inviting my brother and Miriam to stay for a bit after, maybe Hugo as well
Devin: We do have two spare beds
Tumblr media
Luna: I can’t believe they’re aging up already
Devin: They are so small, I wish we could freeze time
Luna: We can’t though. Let’s just enjoy what we have while we have it schatz
Devin: You’re right. Kids are meant to grow up after all
Tumblr media
The boys are changed, fed and burped. Then it’s time to try fit in some more milestones. Luna has taken the day off work to be with the family for the party so the bambinos have two parents to work with them.
Tumblr media
Devin and Luna sit down and try their best to encourage the bambinos to crawl. It’s a rocky start, with both spending lots of time falling to their tummies. A few times they manage to push up to all fours but they have trouble holding it, let alone moving forwards.
Tumblr media
Devin: Oh look, he’s sparkling
Luna: That’s our boy, come on Alfred
Slowly Alfred turns over, pushes himself up and holds himself there. Then he begins to put one limb in front of the other, he’s crawling!
Devin: Well done caro
Rilian: Al! Awl ear (Alfred, crawl here)
Alfred: Ye ye ri (yes yes Rilian)
Tumblr media
The women swap twins and Devin works with Rilian on his crawling while Luna tries to get Alfred standing. Many holds later, Alfred begins to sparkle again.  He crawls over to the conveniently placed chairs and carefully pulls himself up to stand.
Tumblr media
Luna: Well done schnucki! I knew you could do it
Devin: Hey Lu, Rilian is sparkling now
Luna: Aww, just look at you two, learning so much
Sure enough, Rilian follows in his brothers footsteps, beginning to crawl around independently.
Tumblr media
With Luna confident that Devin has everything under control, she goes to harvest the days plants.
Devin: Okay piccolo mio, let’s try holding ourself up
Rilian: Mama eye (why)
Devin: Because you’ll be toddling today, it’s good practice
Alfred: Mama ri an ri an (Rilian can, Rilian can)
Devin: Here come the sparkles!
Rilian uses his tiny arms and with great pizazz pulls himself into a standing position. Well done bambinos, just in time.
Tumblr media
Luna heads back inside to begin a paper she needs to write for work. She needs to up her research and debate skill as well, but one step at a time. Devin carries the bambinos to the dollhouse where both Alfred and Rilian begin to investigate the strange castle. Luna didn’t have time to water the plants so Devin takes care of it while updating her social media account. Bring on the followers!
Tumblr media
Eventually Alfred and Rilian decide to nap where they are rather than call for a lift. Devin sets out for her livestream jog. She didn’t fit in a workout yesterday, and the replies are full of sims congratulating her on her award. How does she run down the hill while replying on her phone? Magic is my guess. When she gets home, following a quick shower, it’s time for the birthday party to begin!
Tumblr media
First up, eldest infant Alfred. Devin walks him over to his cake and with a flurry of celebration behind him he breathes in. Together he and Devin blow the candles out and he is ready to age up! He gets the top notch infant trait, which I’m delighted by since both Devin and Luna work. Blue joins green as future favourite colours.
Tumblr media
Rilian is next. He needs some extra encouragement from his mummy as he’s nervous with the house so full of sims. Luna bounces him and once he’s cheered up takes delight in blowing out the candles. He also gets the top notch infant trait! He ages up in a red shirt so red joins yellow as a favourite colour.
Tumblr media
Welcome to toddlerhood *rolls dice* independent Alfred and angelic Rilian!

Villareal Household: Chapter 5, Part 3
Starlight Accolades, here we come! In this part it's awards time, Deanna and Paris have a quick stayover, and Devin heads to set to start a new film project.
Tumblr media
For ease of reading IF the infants are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets, otherwise it's babble. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian.
Schatz (German) meaning treasure Schnucki (German) meaning sweetie but doesn't have an exact translation Bambino/s (Italian) meaning male child/children Amore (Italian) meaning love Piccolo (Italian) meaning little one Caro (Italian) meaning dear Zia/Zio (Italian) meaning aunt/uncle Tante/Onkel (German) meaning aunt/uncle Nonna/Nonno (Italian) meaning grandfather/grandmother
Devin: Mama and mummy will be back later, you get some sleep bambinos
...
Luna: Thanks so much for doing this
Paris: No problem, it’ll be fun
Luna: They will probably just nap but if you could show them the TV when best actress is up in case Devin wins. She doesn’t think she will but I hope she does
Paris: Of course. I never figured with her confidence she’d doubt winning something
Luna: The accolades are serious business. You do have our numbers right? And the emergency ones?
Paris: Oh my gosh, Luna, get out of here! It’ll be fine, I promise
Tumblr media
Host: Welcome one, welcome all, to the very first televised Starlight Accolades in the ChangingPlumbob universe! Being televised is not the only difference in our award show tonight. To honour our nominees we have thrown away the VIP ribbon to allow everyone to bring a plus one. What’s a star without the person who helps them shine after all. Some of our nominees are also attending virtually so stay tuned for glitz, glam and winners!
Tumblr media
Host: We have honoured our stars in many fields tonight but it is time for stars of the silver screen!
Devin and I don’t hold our breath. She got a nomination last rotation but I don’t think it’ll hold up between rotations. Plus from my investigating it’s pretty hard to get one, I think I’ll be waiting several rotations for the bling
Host: And in our final film category, best actress, the Starlight Accolade goes to…
There is a pause for dramatic effect.
Host: Devin Villareal
Me and Devin: well that’s unexpected
The audience laughs at her reaction as she receives the award.
Devin: Thank you so much everyone! I want to say even though Melodies of the City stars me, Connor and Mina, we had a whole team behind us. You’ve already honoured Levi for his wonderful direction, he truly kept us upbeat on set.
Tumblr media
Devin: Beyond him there was a fantastic team of producers, set dressers, editors and camera operators. I want to thank especially my team in make up and wardrobe for putting up with me. Of course no acceptance speech would be complete without a mention of those we love. Luna, amore mio, I may be standing here but I couldn’t have done it without you. You and me are the best team I will ever be a part of. Thank you ma and pa for encouraging my drama! Joey, Deanna, Kelly, thanks for putting up with your intense older sister. And to my precious bambinos, you can go back to sleep now, mama will be home soon with something shiny!
Tumblr media
Devin takes some time to pose for photos, showing off her angles. She discovers she’s a self-assured sim (honestly on brand).
Cassandra: I’m glad she got the award, the movie is so good
Luna: Tell me about it, those songs get stuck in my head every time she sings or hums them
Cassandra: Is her next one a musical
Luna: Believe it or not, it’s a superhero flick
Cassandra: I believe it, someone always seems to be releasing a new one
Tumblr media
Devin: Who’s ready to be put in their crib by a star actress
Alfred: Mama mummy lo lo me (love me)
Luna: I think he’s ready to tick off another milestone, let me get the camera ready
Devin: Did you wait until we got home? That’s very nice of you
Alfred: Mama mummy lo lo me vee (love me very much) *waves*
Tumblr media
Devin: Oh, oh, I think he’s waving! Are you getting it Lu
Luna: Absolutely! We’re going to send that to nonno and nonna aren’t we schnucki
Rilian: Me eed eyet (I need night night)
Devin: Mama is here piccolo mio, let’s get you back to sleep huh
Luna: Night night Rilian, night night Alfred
Devin: *switches on lullabies* Mama and mummy love you very much
Tumblr media
Devin: You okay De? You look uncomfortable
Deanna: Well I just don’t know how to act in the presence of an accolade winner
There’s a small silence then both women burst out laughing.
Devin: Thanks for bambino sitting
Deanna: They’re pretty cute, I may have sent ma and pa about a dozen photos
Devin: As you should, they’re clearly stars. Come on, let’s take a quick video to send them
They get the photo set up and start recording
Deanna: Tonight I have the honour of sharing space with an award winning actress, also known as…
Devin: Your daughter! We love you two
Deanna: Can I check it before you send
Devin: There’s no need, we look fabulous
Deanna: Of course we do
Tumblr media
Devin: I mean I know I’m amazing but I didn’t think I’d get one so soon
Luna: You earned every bit of that award schatz. You are dedicated to your craft
Devin: I’m just glad I have a wife who gets that acting is a skill. You’re amazing Lu
Luna: I- thank you
Devin: Now what do you say me and you have a proper celebration
Luna: *giggles* that sounds wonderful
Tumblr media
Devin: Bambinos, waken up. I know it’s the middle of the night but dinner was so early you must be hungry by now.
Rilian continues to snore but Alfred stretches and smiles at Devin.
Alfred: Mama I an mill (can I have milk)
Devin: You’re in luck Alfred, I have brought some milk with me
After feeding Alfred and getting him back to bed Devin scoops up Rilian. He wakes up now and is eager to finish off his bottle. Luckily both boys just had gas and Devin can go back to bed without needing a shower.
Tumblr media
Luna gets up ready for a day of work only to discover the sink in the kitchen has broken in the night. She works on fixing it despite hating handiness. Deanna enters the room to find Paris staring at the photos on the wall.
Deanna: Buongiorno baby
Paris: What does that mean again?
Deanna: Good morning, or good afternoon, or good day
Paris: Damn, I really need to work on my Tartosiano
Deanna: Don’t worry, I’ll help you
Tumblr media
Paris: Thanks babe
Devin: Buongiorno
Deanna: Pasta for breakfast, is that a good idea
Devin: Are you questioning an award winner?
Paris laughs while Deanna simply shakes her head.
Paris: I have been wondering Devin, what language will you use with the… bambinos
Devin: Oh, good question. Probably just a mix. Luna and I both speak Simlish to communicate to each other. But she does want to teach them Windenburgish even though I don’t speak it, and of course ma and pa would kill me if I didn’t teach them Tartosiano
Deanna: Maybe you should try learn Windenburgish. I mean we already speak two languages, would probably make it easier to pick it up
Paris: Wish I could speak more than Simlish
Deanna: In time baby
Tumblr media
With Luna off teaching Devin spends some time with the bambinos before she has to head to set. Diaper change time does not go very well for either twin but they cheer up afterwards.
Deanna: Hey Devin, where do you keep-
Rilian: Zi Zi De (Zia Deanna)
Deanna: Ahh... is he talking to me
Devin: Sounds like it
Rilian waves at Deanna who waves back.
Deanna: Well hello to you to, have you learned to wave now?
Tumblr media
Devin looks around for Alfred so she can feed him. He has scooted himself into the hall and is having some solo tummy time.
Devin: Piccolo mio, how about some breakfast
Alfred turns himself over to his back, looks towards Devin quizzically, then blows her a kiss!
Devin: Oh my watcher that is adorable!!! I love you to caro
Alfred: Mwah me lo (I love) mama
Devin: Mwah isn't technically a word but I don’t think mummy will mind. Can you do it for the camera so we can send her some love
Alfred: Mwah mummy
Tumblr media
After feeding both twins Devin tries to practice crawling with them.
Devin: Rilian, can you come to mama? Come over to mama
Rilian: mama no ummy ummy (no, my tummy)
Devin: Good tummy use caro. Okay Alfred, how about you, can you come to mama
Alfred: Mama ri si (Rilian silly) *giggles*
Devin: You don’t even want to turn off your back this morning? Okay, you’re the boss I guess
Tumblr media
Rudolphus: Congratulations on the win kiddo
Devin: Thanks. And I meant what I said, thanks for putting up with me
Rudolphus: It’s my job kid, I treat people like a canvas, you display my art
...
Devin: Hey Emily
Emily: Hmff
Devin: Could I have the costume for today please
Emily: I suppose so. It’s a bit out there for my taste
Devin: Like this hair isn’t
Emily: *chuckles* fair point. You know the drill, up on the stand
Tumblr media
Devin: Connor? Is that you?
Connor: I swear not letting me stay brunette must be a joke to the hair and makeup department
Devin: Well at least I’m joining you on the odd coloured hair boat this time
Connor: Congrats on the win, it was deserved
Devin: Is this where I say you deserved yours to
Connor: *laughs* obviously. Okay, let’s practice this thing
Devin: Let me get my notes
Tumblr media
The actors practice until director Levi calls for them to get on the soundstage.
Levi: ACTION
Devin: You will have to fight harder than that Sparrow if you want to protect Olympus
Connor: But Captain Sigma, why are we using laser swords? They are so antique
Devin: A true hero doesn’t even need a weapon Sparrow, this is just adding extra glam
Levi: CUT! Great job you two!
Tumblr media
Devin: Let’s take a moment to remember-
Connor: We’re friends who don’t actually want to kill each other
Devin: Exactly
Levi: ACTION
Devin: Sparrow? What are you doing here? You’re supposed to be on patrol
Connor: I am worth more than patrol. You have had it your way for too long. There’s only room for one hero in Olympus, and it is not you Captain Sigma!
Devin: Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal
The two begin a fight scene, kicking up clouds of dust, and the battle finishes with Devin using the fake ray to paralyse Connor.
Levi: CUT! You guys had that choreography nailed
Devin: Selfie?
Connor: You’re remembering to do it before the lights are turned off, well done
Tumblr media
Devin: Are you in shot? Say “Sigma”
La: SIGMA
Levi: Ladies, ladies… ACTION
La: I was so worried when Sparrow locked me out of the system that I had seen the last of you
Devin: Never! No matter how crazy Olympus gets, our love is my priority
Devin sweeps her co-star up in a passionate kiss.
Levi: CUT! Can I see if we got the right angles on that?
Devin breathes out, glad the gig is going well. She ends with gold level, a nice raise, and fame level lifted to a 4-star proper celebrity.

Villareal Household: Chapter 5, Part 5
In this part the birthday party wraps up, Joey is invited to move in and Luna's family comes for a stayover. Devin enters super mama mode to try let Luna work on her skills for promotion.
Tumblr media
For ease of reading if the toddlers are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets when they do not use the whole word. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian.
Schatz (German) meaning treasure Schnucki (German) meaning sweetie but doesn't have an exact translation Bambino/s (Italian) meaning male child/children Amore (Italian) meaning love Piccolo (Italian) meaning little one Caro (Italian) meaning dear Zia/Zio (Italian) meaning aunt/uncle Tante/Onkel (German) meaning aunt/uncle Nonna/Nonno (Italian) meaning grandfather/grandmother
Miriam: Happy birthday darlings
Rilian: Who you
Miriam: *laughs* so funny already, it’s obviously me, Tante Miriam
Alfred: Why *gestures to her sunglasses*
Miriam: All the smart people wear sunglasses inside, my husband, your Onkel Max, and I rarely see each others eyes
Rilian: *confused noises*
Deanna: That sounds depressing
Miriam: It works for us short stuff
Tumblr media
Luna: Who wants birthday cake
Alfred and Rilian: We Mummy
Devin: Bambinos if it’s just yourself it’s me, not we
Alfred and Rilian are confused at this, far too many words, but they quickly forget the puzzlement when chocolate cake is in front of them. Luna bustles about the family company, making sure everyone is good while Devin steals Joey for a “House Tour”
Tumblr media
Joey: An empty room, how… trendy?
Devin: Temporarily empty. I was serious when I asked you to move in, it’s yours
Joey: Truly? I mean I know we’re best friends but you’ve got a family and kids now and I’ve got…
Devin: A high woohoo drive? So what? You’re my brother, we are family, always
Joey: You don’t worry... it’ll send the wrong message to your kids
Devin: Waltz through as many women as you like. Luna and I plan on teaching our kids that a persons worth is not tied to their woohoo life
Joey: It’ll take time to move all my stuff but I guess I can do a few shifts from the mansion
Devin: Perfect! You've agreed, no backing out now
Tumblr media
Luna: Time to try potty
Alfred: Why
Devin: You’re both toddlers now, it’s time to learn
Rilian: Why
Luna: So you can grow out of diapers. Come on, let’s just try tonight huh
Devin and Luna help the boys pull down their pants, and diapers, and sit on the potties properly.
Alfred: Mama?
Devin: Try going number 1 or number 2
Rilian just looks around in confusion, really not sure what he’s supposed to be doing. How is he meant to do what happens in his diaper? It normally just happens without effort. Now he has to try go? Very bizarre.
Tumblr media
Luna and Devin do their best to encourage the bambinos. In the end Alfred makes a mess over the floor but seems unbothered. Toddlers don’t clean after all.
Devin: Did you make a puddle huh?
Alfred: Mama, ugg ugg (huh hug)
Devin smiles as Alfred nestles into her shoulder.
Devin: I think Alfred likes being carried
Luna: How about you Rilian? You all finished? Ready to go to bed? However when Luna picks up Rilian he becomes angry at being restricted. He hates being carried! Guess he's no longer the loves to be held infant.
Tumblr media
Devin: Time to go night night caro
Alfred: Why
Luna: So you can sleep. Snuggle down. Do you two want a story tonight?
Rilian: or ee? (story)
Devin and Luna pick the dinosaur book and both read to the bambinos. Devin does all the dinosaur voices while Luna reads the narration parts of the story. Alfred and Rilian giggle but before long begin to snore softly.
Devin: Night night my bambinos, mama loves you
Luna: Sweet dreams Alfred, sweet dreams Rilian, mummy is so happy to have you two
Tumblr media
While they were taking care of the bambinos, Joey had begun to move some of his stuff in. He ran in to Luna's brothers Hugo and Max, as well as Max's wife Miriam, who are staying for a few days.
Devin: Welcome home
Joey: Thanks Devin
Devin: Oh here’s trouble, my sunglasses clan mate
Max: Nice to see you to
Devin: Thanks for staying, Luna’s missed having family around
Hugo: No problem, it’s not like any of us have jobs anyway
Joey: Stupid game code not working
Hugo: Umm sure
Tumblr media
Devin: Don’t mind my brother, he just feels very connected to the watcher
Max: One of those religious ones is he
Devin: Gosh Lu, you didn’t tell me not believing in the watcher was a family trait
Luna: It’s just how dad raised us, maybe mum would have been different but…
Max: But we’ll never know because she abandoned us
Luna: Max! We don’t know that’s what she did
Hugo: Exactly! Dad probably killed her
Luna: Hugo!
Joey: And they say I’m paranoid
Luna: She’s got to be alive... somewhere
Tumblr media
Luna: I do keep trying the genealogy research but, nothing
Miriam: Oh great, let’s spend more time talking about the woman who screwed you all over
Feeling the need to change subjects Devin channels her most charming self.
Devin: So Miriam, how are you keeping busy
Miriam: Not with a job, we have the big house and the inheritance from Jacques
Max: We’re good
Hugo: I want to say again, thanks for giving me your portion Lu
Luna: I don’t know why that jerk cut you out of the will, he’d clearly gone batty
Hugo: That’s not it. You may have implied you knew of his criminal streak but I definitely called him a murderer to his face once or twice
Tumblr media
While Luna goes to do some research for her faculty Devin ropes the rest of the Villareal’s into helping her practice some lines for her next job.
Miriam: So we fight, but it’s a fake fight?
Devin: Exactly
Max: What did you say to my brother
Hugo: Chill out Max, it’s part of a script
Max: Oh, that’s fine then, verbally abuse him at your leisure
Tumblr media
Devin: Buongiorno everyone
Max: Guten Morgen
Hugo: You doing breakfast
Devin: Indeed. Luna is busy tending the plants and I figured I could fit in some meal prep before the bambinos waken up
Joey: Need help
Devin: I thought group cooking was bugged
Joey: Not every time, just most times
Tumblr media
Alfred: Zi jo, Zi jo! (Zio Joey)
Joey: Buongiorno Alfred
Alfred: Huh
Joey: It means good morning
Rilian: Zi jo, Zi jo! (Zio Joey)
Devin: I guess we’re all awake now. Bambinos it’s Zio Joey, Jo-ey, Joey
Twins: Zi Joey! (Zio Joey)
Joey: Finally, my own fans. I can see why you like this attention
Devin: *laughs* can we say hi to Onkel Hugo
Tumblr media
Hugo: Guten Morgen boys
Alfred: *laughs* Onk Hu si si (Onkel Hugo silly)
Devin: Onkel Hugo is just speaking Windenburgish piccolo
Rilian: Why
Luna: Because sims can speak more than one language if they try really hard schnucki
Devin: Grab a plate bambinos
Tumblr media
Hugo: They’re sweet at this age
Devin: Don’t I know it. But you know if you wanted to volunteer for diaper duty…
Hugo: I’m good Devin
Alfred: Onk hu, why bru la da (Onkel Hugo, why does breakfast exist)
Hugo: What
Rilian: Onk hu, why ga lee doo (Onkel Hugo, why do bowls exist)
Devin: Yeah, talking is a process. We’re getting there a step at a time. Okay bambinos, after breakfast we’re doing baths. Now mummy has a day off but she’s trying really hard to learn so can we stick together? Like a team?
Alfred: We te te (We're a team)
Rilian: Me MEME (I'm a team)
Joey chuckles to himself at their attempts to learn language.
Tumblr media
After much nonsense is said it’s decided Alfred will be carried to have the first bath while Rilian will walk himself.
Devin: Look, you’re big enough not to need a seat now Alfred
Alfred: We pl… we pl… play?
Devin: Clearly we need to work on some basic needs today piccolo mio
Rilian: Me we here
Devin: *chuckles* great job caro, can you play while mama finishes giving Alfred his bath?
Rilian: We me play
Tumblr media
Devin: Arms up Alfred, time to dry off
Rilian: mama me, mama me
Devin: Yes Rilian, it’s your turn. Remember Alfred, let mummy learn
Alfred: Kay *immediately wanders out in the yard*
Devin: Let’s get some- woah! Watch where the water is going piccolo mio
Rilian: I lo lo war tar, I lo lo mama (I love water, I love it mama)
Devin: You love water do you? That’s fun isn’t it?
Tumblr media
Following baths Devin gets both bambinos in the hall and begins teaching them about basic needs. She works with Rilian first, then switches to Alfred. While she is distracted Rilian sneaks to where his mummy is practicing her lecture and listens in awe at her big words. Both twins reach thinking skill level 2.
Tumblr media
Devin: And what’s this one
Alfred: No! I nee pee (I need to pee)
So Luna takes a break to help Devin try and coach using the potty again, Rilian is still very confused by the process. When they’re done Luna returns to study, Devin goes for a jog, and the bambinos get their first screens.
Alfred: Rili, what got (Rilian what do you have)
Rilian: Rab.. bab.. tablet Alfe (It's a tablet Alfred)
Alfred: pass we pass me (Pass it to me)
Rilian: No! not we, Alfe me (Not for you Alfred, for me)
Alfred grumbles but eventually picks up the other tablet to play his own game. The twins chat to each other while they play, making sense only to each other (and who else needs to follow their conversation but them anyway).
Tumblr media
Devin: Applesauce for everyone
Alfred: YAY *plays*
Rilian: Why mama
Devin: Because it’s food time
Rilian: No like
Devin: If you don’t eat caro, you’ll be hungry
Luna: Do I hear someone being a picky eater?
Devin: Apparently. Come on caro, three more scoops
Luna: Will that work if they can’t count
Devin: Umm
Tumblr media
After everyone has eaten the bambinos are scooped up and taken to bed. Again they get a double storytelling and happily fall asleep. It’s a good thing we managed it early as Alfred is an early riser and needs a long sleep. Afterwards Luna tries to learn a bit of Tartosian online and Devin practices her guitar playing.
Luna: Te amo Devin
Devin: *giggles* nice pronunciation Lu, but you don’t have to learn Tartosian
Luna: If the bambinos are going to speak it then I ought to try
Devin: Guess I better try learn some Winednburgish then

Villareal Household: Chapter 5, Part 1
An easy Saturday morning with the Villareal's. Luna is moving past her postpartum depression and discuses a change of location with Devin. Rilian and Alfred went and said their first words between rotations the little scamps. Probably my fault for inviting them to so many gatherings but I'm ignoring that.
Tumblr media
For ease of reading IF the infants are trying to say real words I'll put the English in brackets, otherwise it's babble. Luna (mummy) and Devin (mama) use some German and Italian.
Schatz (German) meaning treasure Schnucki (German) meaning sweetie but doesn't have an exact translation Bambino/s (Italian) meaning male child/children Amore (Italian) meaning love Piccolo (Italian) meaning little one Caro (Italian) meaning dear
In the suburbs of Del Sol valley are the Villareal’s, all of whom are awake
Devin: Why hello piccolo mio
Alfred: Mama
Devin: Yes, I’m your mama. Can you two bambinos say mummy? Mummy?
Alfred & Rilian: MUMMY
After saying this Rilian snuggles into Luna’s shoulder happily.
Luna: They are cute aren’t they schatz
Devin: Yeah we made some cuties
Tumblr media
Devin: Do you want to feed Rilian
Luna: Do I want to feed the one without gas troubles? Yes
Devin: *chuckles* Looks like it’s just you and me caro, drink up
Luna: We got this milk from our friend just for you two, yes we did schnucki
Devin: They love it
Luna: I wish I had been able to give them more of mine
Devin: Not everyone can breastfeed Lu
Luna: I keep trying to remind myself of that
Tumblr media
Devin: Let’s deal with the inevitable gas Alfred. Here we-
Alfred spits out all over Devin’s back
Devin: Fine… this is… totally fine. You get that gas out piccolo mio
Luna: Let’s see if Rilian feels like- no it’s just gas bubbles from him
Devin: *laughs* It’s okay Alfred, none of us are perfect, although I’m pretty damn close
Luna: I love how you are just unfailingly confident
Devin: And I love how you know words like unflail-unfailed... It’s 3am, I cannot be literate at this hour
Luna: Bedtime I think. How about it bambinos?
Tumblr media
Devin: Night night Alfred, mama and mummy love you
Alfred: fa mama fa goo da mummy
Luna: Good night schnucki. Okay here we go Rilian, down nice and easy. Mummy and mama love you so much
Rilian: ga do lu mummy
Devin: Night night Rilian
Rilian: go da mama
Alfred begins to wail and fuss so Devin gives him extra kisses while Luna turns on the lullabies. Rilian meanwhile sticks his tiny fingers in his mouth and sucks to calm himself. Eventually both boys drift off to sleep.
Tumblr media
Devin: All ready to move tomorrow
Luna: You sure it’s a good idea? The Pinnacles are…
Devin: Perfect? Stunning? Home to breath taking views?
Luna: I was going to go with high class but sure
Devin: Lu we’re plenty high class. With the funds from all the savings accounts we can get 100k without even touching the money for the bambinos
Luna: You may almost be a 4 star celeb but what about me? I have no fame whatsoever
Devin: Celebrities have spouses, not all of them are famous
Luna: What if the neighbours think I’ve no right to be up there
Tumblr media
Devin: Then we send Kelly to TP their fences
Luna can’t help giggling at the idea of the nose in the air celebs finding their fences bedecked in toilet paper.
Devin: Lu, the Ward’s have moved out. The lot is bulldozed. At 30k it’s a steal
Luna: If you’re sure we can afford it
Devin: I want the best for my family. I’ve already landed another movie role to do, we can do it, so long as it won’t screw up your mental health
Luna: Don’t worry about me
Devin: Promise me you’ll let me know if it gets too much
Luna: I promise schatz, I promise
Tumblr media
The weekend dawns and the women wake early.
Luna: I’m sure our hair was longer when we fell asleep
Devin: It’ll just be the watcher, go back to sleep
Luna: Sleep while an invisible made up being controls my life? Nope. Come on schatz, we need to get up
The two head to the kitchen and grab some leftovers for breakfast. Before she can sit down however Devin pulls Luna close and kisses her cheek
Devin: Happy 30th amore
Luna: *laughs* it’s not like it’s an age up birthday Devin
Devin: Maybe but I enjoy celebrating my wife no matter the occasion and 30 seems like a great occasion
Tumblr media
Devin: Will you be my date to the Starlight Accolades?
Luna: Is that on this week
Devin: I guess we show up and… see what happens
Luna: How could I say no to the hottest sim in the worlds
Devin: You know it amore *winks*
Luna: Should we get a nanny for the boys
Devin: I think I can convince De and Paris to stay the night, especially if we set a room up for them
Luna: Do they know how to look after infants
Devin: We have to find out some time
Tumblr media
Devin: They can’t be worse than the AI
Luna: Are you planning on teaching the twins that the watcher is real
Devin: Let’s see… Are you planning on teaching them the flower bunny is real
Luna: But schatz the flower bunny is real
Devin: Agree to disagree on the watcher, the boys can make their own minds up
Luna: Have you told Joey you’re planning a room for him in this new house
Devin: Not yet, I want to surprise him
Tumblr media
After breakfast Devin and Luna wash up before getting on with their morning routines. Alfred and Rilian continue to sleep soundly during this, although they are good at tossing and turning.
Devin: I flew in and boy are my arms tired
Luna: You quite sure you’re level 6 comedy
Devin: 6 and a half, 7 is in my sights! Tell the gnomes I say hi
Luna laughs and goes out to tend the garden. The gnomes from last Harvestfest stand amongst the plants. Today is the last day of winter but Luna has found her plants survived the warmer winters of Del Sol Valley. Back in Windenburg they would have been buried in snow.
Tumblr media
Alfred looks around the room and babbles to Rilian who has also woken up.
Devin: Buongiorno bambinos! Mama is here. Who wants a clean diaper
Alfred: Mama te ga he
Devin scoops Alfred up as Rilian pulls himself into a sit
Rilian: Mummy de da
Devin: Yes mama and mummy are here, oh boy this diaper is no good
Luna: Could you-
Devin: Hand him over after he’s clean? Of course. We want you to have positive interactions with them remember
Luna: Thanks for understanding schatz
Devin: No matter what happens, I’m always going to be your number one fan amore. We have a clean diaper people! Clean diaper
Luna: Mama is silly isn’t she Alfred? Yes mama make silly
Alfred: *giggles*
Tumblr media
While Devin takes Rilian out of the cot and over to the changing table Luna takes time to snuggle with Alfred.
Luna: Do we need to pack up stuff
Devin: Just the photos later on. The wa- the movers will take care of the rest
Luna: Hear that Alfred? We’re going to have a big adventure today. Can we have an adventure in our pjs?
Devin: Yes!
Luna: Fair point. Let’s get you changed into your day clothes anyway huh? Where is your hat
Devin: Second drawer. Green alert, two clean diapers
Luna: Let’s go feed them before they change that huh
Devin: We won't be a minute. Okay piccolo mio, let’s get your outfit on. Leg through that hole, arm through that one… Perfect, just like me!

Luna: What new food can we explore today schnucki
Alfred: mummy da lo mama
Devin: How about yoghurt, I’ll grab some
Luna: Now Alfred, remember, the food can’t hurt you. And Rilian, try be brave
Devin: He likes to think about his food, don’t you caro
Rilian: mama foo foo (food food) mummy
Tumblr media
Alfred: fa na doo loo
Luna: Come on schnucki, try keep it in your mouth
Devin: Here comes the airplane, you ready Rilian
Rilian: foo (food) mama de la
Devin: Open wide! Aww, he grabbed for the spoon again
Luna: We better try some finger food after this
Alfred: ga na mummy foo (food)
Tumblr media
Devin: Rilian did you hear mummy? We keep the food in our mouth
Rilian however is very happy to pull it back out and play with it. Devin is admiring him playing away when Alfred begins to fuss and cry.
Luna: *sighs in defeat* The hell did I do this time
Devin: It’s not you Lu, he just mustn’t like yoghurt. Cheer up caro
Alfred: *rages*
Devin: Tell you what Lu, Rilian is just unsure about yoghurt. You want to give him his finger foods and I’ll work on calming down Alfred
Luna: Please
Devin: Listen now piccolo mio, you don’t have to like every food. But crying afterwards won’t achieve anything
Alfred simply pouts.
Tumblr media
Luna: Here are some yoghurt melts schnucki
Rilian looks visibly confused. He just tried yoghurt with mama. What does mummy mean when she indicates something different is also yoghurt?
Luna: We can pick them up like this, remember
Devin: Here we go Alfred, try these. See if you feel differently about them
Alfred: Mama foo na doo (not do food)
Devin: Just try it caro
The twins try the yoghurt melts carefully. Rilian remains unsure about the whole thing, not forming an opinion yet. Alfred however perks right up as he discovers he loves yoghurt melts.

Luna: Alright, all the plants have been harvested in case they don’t travel well
Devin: And I’ve scooped up all the photos
Luna: So is the house ready
Devin: It’s… a work in progress
Luna: Devin, is it fit for habitation?
Devin: Of course! It’s just only one storey at the moment so there’s this big empty part where the staircase should go. And the walls are super tall.
Luna: You’ll have to start knitting longer hanging plants
Devin: I know! If we hung the short ones up we would forget they exist
Tumblr media
Alfred: Mummy? Mama? do na
Luna: Sorry schnucki, we’re coming back
Rilian: Mummy fa na mama too ra
Luna: How does Alfred get brown on his face when all the food was white
Devin: Because infants are magic
Luna: Obviously
Devin plays a quick game of peek-a-boo with Alfred who doesn’t mind it while Luna keeps talking to Rilian.
Tumblr media
Devin: Alfred caro if you’re just going to play with it then I think we’re done
Alfred: Mama ti me lup (pick me up)
Devin: Is me a new word???
Luna: I think so
Devin: Mama is coming caro
Luna: Who wants to play peek-a-boo. Where’s mummy gone Rilian
Devin: Wait Lu he-
Rilian bursts in to tears at the game, feeling very afraid at his mummy just disappearing like that
Luna: Sorry, I forgot
Devin: Don’t worry. Now bambinos, say bye bye house. Bye bye house
Alfred: li li sss (bye bye house)
Tumblr media
Devin: Here we are Rilian, home
Rilian: Mama me na boo
Luna: I think someone has been listening to his brother’s words. Hear that Alfred
Alfred: He na mummy
Luna: Does he count as a word
Devin: Depends if he meant he I suppose. Let’s get them to the nursery and work on unpacking huh
Luna: Who wants to go find their toys? Is it you schnucki? Is it you
Alfred: Mummy me da oop
