Aw. This is a good start to a new chapter.
Ruby and Splatter both got jobs given to them out in the wide world of Story Progression.
Amber: So, Carlos - I know I said I had news, and here it is. Are you ready for this? I'm pregnant. BAM.
Carlos: Cool. That's really awesome, nice job.
Well he seems a bit apathetic about the birth of his first child.

Cullen's having a thing with Sandi. I've gotten about 100 of these pop-ups recently. Good for him! Even though she's weird-looking and already has a son named Cale (who hates Cullen) I'm glad that Jon-Pierre's son has found some kind of happiness.
Splatter is hanging out with Cletus Langerak. His name always makes me laugh - for some reason I think 'fetus' every time I see it, and then I snicker at him.
Carlos decides that the best thing to do with the girl who you've just knocked up is have a pillow fight with her, and he proceeds to roll a wish to do just that, which I then fulfil. This can't be good for the baby...
Splatter and Fetus make it official.
Can I get a HELL YEAH?!
Amber: Oowww! Baby!
Finally. It felt like this pregnancy took forever.

And the new child is held aloft. This bit always reminds me of Lion King. His name is Jamie Vamoosh, ladies and gentlemen. He's an easily impressed couch potato who adores the colour lilac, hamburgers and country music.
I have to say, I'm a bit worried about Genevieve's new alcoholic tendencies...
Hahaha, look! The weird picture of the upside-down wine glass is behind the bar! I support the irony of this. That other sunsetty picture is nice too - I think these are left over from Ruby's wish of decorating the house with 15 paintings, because I'm normally too lazy to decorate.
Gen's other new favourite activity is doting on her new grandson. Since she'll probably be popping her clogs soon (D:) I figured they should do as much bonding as possible before she leaves this mortal realm.
In other news, Splatter married Fetus.
Sorry that this chapter is full of spare updates, but really I always have trouble letting them go. I've been trying to stick to just the more important updates though... xD

Everybody loves the baby. I have to say, Jamie is one of the most easy-going babies I've had in this game so far. He doesn't even cry when his needs are low! He just sits there, waiting for someone to care for him... awww.Is that his couch potato side coming out? Maybe he's too lazy even to cry?
So, Amber. New baby soon pls?
Amber: Nah.
Why not?
Amber: No time for babies! How will I fulfil my LTW if I'm on maternity leave all the time? Besides, Carlos' work schedule clashes with mine. We're never home at the same time long enough to Try For Baby anyway.
It's true. *snarls* I suppose I'll have to wait until one of them gets promoted to a new time frame - which shouldn't take long, since Carlos has literally been getting a promotion a day since he moved in. Wow.
Amber: Nah.

Hi, Splash! Not that it's not great to see you (it is, even if your hair has gone funny) but I'm like 100% positive that Gen just invited Splatter over to fulfil a wish she's had for ages. You know, your sister?
Huh. Invite Splatter, get Splash. Wrong twin. I am not amused.

On the plus side, maybe Carlos will be able to use a charming introduction on her and fulfil a wish he's had for ages?
...No. No charming introduction. *sigh*
Carlos: I'm a winner.
Genevieve: You know, you should marry Splash instead of Amber! That's a great idea - you can go and live in her house instead!
Yeah, Gen still doesn't like Carlos. No one knows why...

But then we discovered Sophia Rapp the paparazzi! Wish granted!
Sophia Rapp: Oh, I'm so charmed! That was just sooooo charming!

I don't know why Amber always feels the need to age up after work in ridiculous clothes. (Well, okay, she actually pulls this look off... kinda.) I left her to it, since she was just going to look the same anyway. You don't need a picture of identical-Amber-with-slightly-more-wrinkles, do you?
FINALLY, they were both home at the same time. Lullaby nao?
Now that she's finished with Hank, Ruby's moved on to VJ Alvi. (Now with new hyphenated surname.) I'm not approving of your choices much, dear - all these old guys. Why can't you date someone your own age who will give you babies without dying on you suddenly?
Oh, um... speaking of dying.
Genevieve: Hey, I'm floating! Cool, this is new.
Genevieve: Hey, I'm floating! Cool, this is new.
Genevieve: Oh, I'm translucent now. This is going to make it a lot easier to steal stuff.
My founder... D:

Carlos: Even though my mother-in-law hated me for no good reason, I'm still going to miss her. :(
RIP Genevieve Vamoosh. You were a wonderfully crazy and hilarious founder, you lost me less points than Jon-Pierre did and you stole so much on your own.
Gen died with her LTW unfulfilled and with something like 40,000 in LTH.

So Gen's grave goes next to Jon-Pierre's in the backyard, and they each get a vase of sunflowers. I've built the grave plot for the next heir and spouse too, in pink and lilac. Not that I think they're going to die anytime soon. I just got carried away with the fun of decorating. LOL
And we have our very first haunting the next night! Welcome back, Jon-Pierre!
Jon-Pierre is a very polite ghost, and he just sits and quietly reads a book for the entirety of his visit.
Since Carlos had the wish to throw a party locked in I decided to make it a birthday party for Jamie. The first guest to arrive was Cullen... and OMG he looks just like Jon-Pierre! Wow. I think his face shape and eyebrows might be different, but everything else...
Margarita Andrews: Booooo, Rickie Hatch-Hart. You weren't invited! Go away!
Yeah, Rickie and his stupid haircut decided to crash my party. I got Carlos to 'Ask to Leave' three times, and then I just gave up and used 'moveobjects on' to delete Rickie. Ha ha.

Splatter was invited too, and apparantly she's just discovered she's pregnant. Cool! I was wondering why she was just standing outside the door for hours.
Sparkles for Jamie!
He is just too cute! I think most of those facial features are Carlos' - and he also got the black hair from Carlos. But those gorgeous green eyes are throwbacks from Genevieve! I love him! Cute!
Meanwhile, Amber already has the wish for a boy locked in. So here's hoping her second pregnancy works out - I don't intend her and Carlos to have many kids since they both have job-related LTWs and no time to spare teaching kids skilling.

Ha! Just ha. :D
Just one more picture because Jamie is so cute!
Genevieve is back. Hi Gen! Did you see how your grandson turned out?
Genevieve: Meh.
Genevieve: Meh.
She floated upstairs and I thought she might actually go and visit Jamie, but nope. It's computer games for Genevieve... loud, irritating noisy computer games which are always twenty-times louder than they should be when I play sims. Thanks a lot, Gen.
Ruby's getting married to VJ. But he's so old! Also, I could have sworn I changed her hair at the party. Why has it reverted back to 'silly' instead of staying at 'awesome'?
Agh! Burglar!
OMG he's got a bag full of piano dust! We can't let him get away with this!
Carlos: Um, hi. There's, uh, a burglar in my house. Can you come quick please?
Carlos: I can see you, you know.
Burglar: Not listening! I'm not listening!
Burglar: Not listening! I'm not listening!
Burglar: I guess he saw me, huh?
Policeman: 'Fraid so. I'm going to have to ask you to come with me now.
Burglar: Never! *launches full-frontal attack*
Policeman: 'Fraid so. I'm going to have to ask you to come with me now.
Burglar: Never! *launches full-frontal attack*
Really? Seriously, Mr Policeman? You suck!
And there goes our burglar, off to start a new life with his bag full of piano dust.
Ladies and gentlemen, the police force of Sunset Valley. *slow clap* They're useless.

Amber: Crap, I think that burglar scared the baby out of me! Owww!
And it's another boy! Amber's wish is fulfilled. :D
Meet Jethro Vamoosh. He loves the outdoors and is easily impressed (like his brother). He is fond of the colour hot pink, loves to eat goopy carbonara and enjoys listening to classical music.
So! With two new babies in the family, let's leave this chapter here! See you next time!
