2.8 The Crisis of Life

Welcome back all! Another episode of the Pollinations is here!

We start today with Six in the middle of his mid-life crisis. Poor aliens, not used to getting old.



Bellatrix isn't having much luck in flaunting her new Diva trait either. Andromeda wasn't very impressed with her talking about her awesomeness.



Andromeda is also the only one in the house that does anything with the LTR thingy ExtraordinAIRe-Inator. As far as I can tell it's only benefit is allowing a sim to meditate without training. Whenever she has a free minute, that's what Andromeda is doing now.



This picture is a double celebration. Not only is Cassi celebrating her adult birthday, but she also just beat the pants off her last chess opponent to become a Chess Master. LTW COMPLETE WOOOO!



Bamf! A face to make daddy Seven proud. And she ALSO goes into a Mid-Life crisis. Great. -_-

CHESS GUY - Isn't this celebration a little . . . excessive? It was just one game . . . .



The next day Cassi rolls a crisis wish to have a makeover. So I gave her one. That's some awful lighting too, because she doesn't look that hag-ish in-game. O_o



Aaaand then she promptly burst into tears. -_-



Only one thing could make her feel better . . . skinny-dipping in the hot tub. Tsk, tsk, Cassi. And she suddenly has her old hairstyle again because I forgot I had her set to different hairs for different outfits from her wedding. <--Fail.



That night Bart's ghost made another appearance. What's got his panties in a twist?



Wow. Hating on the xylophone again. Harsh, grandpa Bart. Very harsh.



After that he went and haunted the living room planter for a few hours before departing for the after-life again. XD



One of Six's crisis wishes was to buy a car worth 100,000 simoleons. Since they had 180k at this point, I indulged him. This beauty is courtesy of the awesome Fresh Prince.



But enough of that randomness. It's time for another birthday! Scorpius to be exact.



He becomes a child full of attitude and win, rolling the virtuoso trait. I have plans of making him a rocker in adulthood.



That night it was time for the twins' prom. Neither had dates, because this generation of children can't seem to make friends for squat. -_-



Of course inappropriate snowflake Aquila had to say 'screw you' to the dress I gave her and wore her regular clothes. >_<



Andromeda spent most of the prom looking for lights and thinking the aliens were coming which . . . given their parentage is pretty darned hilarious. Also, the trophy is from their childhood ballerina days which I totally forgot to take pictures of. <-- MOAR fail.



Surprisingly Aquila nabbed Prom Queen in her plain clothes AND got herself a romantic interest. I forget what his name is now, though . . . <-- EVEN MOAR FAIL



That night Six also got arrested for the first time. It's pretty lame that they just tamely go into the police cruiser. Six Y U NO TRY TO RUN?

SIX - Meh. I could use a break. Dominos here I come.



Scorpius heads to his first day of school . . . taking a muffin with him. O_o



Ooo, a new maid! No more creepy white-hat guy!



..... Seriously, guy? SERIOUSLY?! You're not even a vampire!



No, really genius?! I have NO IDEA why you're sick! /sarcasm Now clean up those plates!!!  >:[



Now that Cassi isn't playing chess anymore and there's no more babies to take care of, she's got oodles of free time. I went ahead and signed her up as a self-employed writer. Here she is working on her first novel, a Sci-Fi entitled 'Pollination : Mission Statement.' I R CREATIVEZ.



Oh look! Another birthday! This time it's Bellatrix becoming a teen.

BELLATRIX - Hmm . . . what could possibly add onto my perfection . . .



The whole family turned out to celebrate, too.



And here we have Bellatrix the teen. I gave her the charismatic trait, as I have plans of putting her in the business career in adulthood.



ANDROMEDA - Dad got arrested the other night . . . thoughts?
AQUILA - I'm more concerned with that dead sea-bug sitting on the table in front of me.
BELLATRIX - It's Lobster Thermidor, dummy. Grandpa Bart made tons of it trying to get the Bon Appetit achievement for the Watcher before he died, to no avail.

True Story.



Bellatrix spends most of her free time in front of the mirror now, either brushing up on her people skills or admiring her beautious perfection.



Six has reached the point in his career that he needs the logic skill, so he likes looking for Evil Doings in his massive telescope.
>:)



And we'll end this chapter with Cassiopeia buying out the Science Facility, re-naming it the #7 Institute of Sciency Things. Cassi? Could you . . . maybe look a little more pleased? Happy even?

CASSI - This IS my happy face.

Hmm, that seems awfully familiar . . . I guess she really IS Bart's daughter.



That's it for this installment. Join us next time for what will be the final chapter before the heir vote for Generation 3!!! See ya then!
