Taylor Gen 3, part 4

Ugh, and once again I've taken way too long between posts. Time to try to remember what happened between the last post and this one, I have a feeling I'm going to be making up a whole lot of stuff lol. I'm trying out different ways to edit photos so if they look a bit different, that's why. Trying to see if I can find an action that I like, or if I should stick with the editing I was doing (actions are so handy - hit a button and you're done, much easier than having to mess with all the saturation and lighting levels).

I'm having Lily spend a lot of her free time leveling up in her logic skill until she can make the potion to turn invisible friends real. It's more than time to have the teens' obnoxious friends become real and stop annoying the heck out of me!

Saeed: 'Sup?

Saeed; Hurr durr I'm Arwa and I'm a stupid little moron. 
IF: *giggles*

Arwa: Saeed! Stop! I don't know what your problem is but you're not funny. 

Saeed: Oh shut your mouth and stop being so sensitive. 

IF: Your mom seems kind of crazy too. Must be genetic!

Saeed: Oh god, my mom's absolutely psycho. I can definitely see where Arwa gets her stupid from!

Good god Saeed, way to teach the IF bad habits! 
Goddammit Luxor, you are WAY too old to be pulling this crap!

Cairo's having fun playing in the sprinkler. So cute!

Aww, having a pillow fight together. Seeing the sims bond with their IFs bond makes me happy. 

SMACK!

Farrah: Ow! Hey, not so hard! That hurts!

Farrah: God dang it I hate this stupid homework. I can think of SO many other things I'd rather be doing!

At least she has a pretty view for her homework!

Birthday time for Goblin!

Aww, they grow up so quickly <3

The chameleon (who's name I can't remember) died. 


Saeed continued to work on his skills - reading recipes so he has more things to cook for his family.

I can't remember what she did to make Farid so mad at her. I want to say she skipped school, and he yelled at her and grounded her, but I seriously can't remember. Oops. Whatever she did, she's in trouble!

Hugging her IF for comfort after getting chewed out by her dad. 

Lily finally learnt enough to be able to make the potion to turn IFs real! Now let's see what I'm getting into with these IFs...

*bubblessparklesbrightlights*

And it's a girl. A pretty girl, but still a girl. Gotta fix that real quick...

There we go! His name is Sama'a. 

Looks like the two of them are really hitting it off. 

Saeed snuck out of the house and made his way to the school to see what kind of trouble he could get into.

Lol, he started playing on the playground. Real badass there, dude. Nothing like sneaking out in the middle of the night, sneaking over to the school grounds, and playing on the playground once you get there.

Farrah: You're even hotter than I imagined you!
Sama'a: You know it!
Farrah: *giggles*

Sama'a is wasting no time in winning Farrah's heart!

Looks like it's working!

Caaannnnoooonnnnnn baaaaaallllllll

*SPLASH*

Arwa's working on her dives. 

All that diving tired her out so Arwa fell asleep in one of the lounge chairs, enjoying the warm sun. 

I'm not sure what this face means, but clearly she's not a fan of Saeed. Can't say I blame her, I don't think anyone's a fan of Saeed, the little shit.

These two aren't wasting any time getting to "know" each other.

They are now officially dating!

Just in time for Farrah's birthday! I have no idea what she has planned once she becomes an adult, but that face makes me worry.

Farid is very excited to have one less teenager in his house. Can't say I blame him!

Make a wish!


She's pretty! Looks just like her mother. Her traits are Absent-Minded, Clumsy, Animal Lover, Angler, and Brooding and her LTW is to Become a Creature-Robot Cross Breeder

I went ahead and aged Sama'a up too, so Farrah wouldn't be a creeper who's dating a teenager. And so they can hurry up and get married and move out.


He's not too bad. A little plain and boring (apart from the hair and eyes), but he's at least decent looking. His traits are Hot-Headed, Hydrophobic, Dislikes Children, Snob, and Savvy Sculptor and his LTW is Lifestyle of the Rich and Famous. Not much of a catch there, but Farrah loves him anyways.

I'm trying desperately to get Farid to master all the skills he's supposed to. It's hard to work on skills when you have children to raise.

Sama'a tried to take Farrah on a nice romantic trip to the beach and it started hailing (at least, I think that's hail). He was not pleased.

He didn't let the hail get in the way though!

Sama'a: Farrah Taylor, will you marry me?
Farrah: OH MY GOD!

Of course she said yes. 

They went ahead and had a private wedding right there on the beach. Not a bad location for a wedding! If only the weather had cooperated with me. 

They always have such dorky expressions on their face when they're getting married. It's so special. 

They are now officially Mr. & Mrs. Taylor!

Nothing like getting married with some random sim trying to sunbathe in the background (even though it's hailing and not at all a good time for laying out in the sun).

Gotta take a selfie!

Farrah went online and I think got a job in the science career before moving out with her new husband (she's not my heir choice, obviously).

With Farrah and Sama'a gone there's finally enough space to turn the other IFs real. First up, Arwa's IF!

Hmm, looks like Arwa and Saeed may have to switch IFs since this one seems to already have a crush on Saeed.
Arwa: Maybe I'll have a chess partner now!

Ooh, she's decently pretty! She and Saeed should make pretty babies! I named her Khadra. 

I added a bunk bed to Arwa's room so that Farrah can sleep in there. I highly doubt Farid and Lily would let Farrah sleep in Saeed's room!

Spending some relaxing time in the hot tub away from all his annoying family.  

Farid's not sure where this strange sim with the weird hair came from, and he wasn't sure how to ask her so he just sat there awkwardly when she came over to read her book. 

Now it's time to turn Saeed's IF real. Fingers crossed it's a boy so Arwa can have someone to date/marry.

Yessss! He's apparently evil though, which just doesn't seem right for an invisible friend, but then again, he was Saeed's IF so I guess Saeed rubbed off on him. I named him Siya (pronounced sye-ah).

And he is NOT happy with Saeed o.O Good lord dude, Saeed's the reason you're not stuck as a toy for the rest of your life!

I got Khadra out of her weird IF clothes and gave her a makeover.



And next was Siya's turn. He's also really generic but I think with a little tweaking he'd be pretty good looking so I'll save his file for use in a future legacy or something.

Ooh, that's a new gnome! I don't think I've seen this one before!

Lol, Khadra decided to go outside and play in the sandbox. 

I gave Siya some different clothes, not sure why lol. My game must have crashed at some point, I've had off and on issues with CC and my video cards. 

For whatever reason this Sunlit Tides save didn't have a festival lot so I finally got around to placing one and sent the family to check it out. Of course they had to get the obligatory greeting card picture taken. 


When they got tired of the festival the family headed down to the surrounding beach and started fishing (well, some of them did). 


And those who didn't fish went snorkeling in the crystal clear waters. 

I had her go swimming too until I remembered that she's hydrophobic. Oops, sorry girl. She wasn't too happy with me for that one lol. 

There, that's better!

Deer: O hai guys! Don't mind me!

Even Goblin got in on the water sports and spent some time fishing. 

Okay, that's an interesting place to go to make a phone call.

...are you serious?! Ugh, SAEED NO! STAY AWAY FROM THE LIGHTS!

Dammit. 

Well have fun up there Saeed. 

A little while later an alien escorted a groggy Saeed back home to Earth.

Looks like Saeed shares my feelings about this whole ordeal. 


My game glitched and Saeed and Arwa were suddenly able to work on their skills as they sleep (pretty sure it was the athletic skill). I wish I could work out and get in shape while sleeping! Dang that would be nice, instead of having to go to the gym and work out, I could just go to sleep and wake up fitter and thinner. 

In an attempt to take his mind off his terrifying ordeal with the aliens, Farid baked cinnamon rolls for his family. 

Okay, on that note I'm gonna go head and end this update, it's been long enough as it is. I take way too many pictures of my sims, ugh. Will Saeed get over his alien abduction or will there be lasting effects for him and his family? Will Saeed grow a conscience as he grows up or will he continue to be an annoying little asshole? Will Khadra put up with his crap or will she dump him and find a guy who might actually treat her right? Come back next time to find out, and I'll try not to go half a year between updates this time :P Thanks for reading!
