Tribe Changes

Alys was nervous about what other kids would think, as she got on the bus for the first time.
To her surprise, girls ran up and asked "is that Gucci?", until Alys replied "I skinned it myself."
She had a seat to herself for the rest of her childhood.



Meanwhile, Apari mastered the fishing skill.
He still wants 3 perfect fish, though.
He also mastered the athletic skill after many hours sweating it out.
He's made no progress with painting.


Kadee mastered gardening, but is failing her wish of having a perfect garden.
She also mastered the cooking skill, so I changed her lifetime wish to learning all recipes.
A mysterious grant for 16k was received to purchase the books.


Rowan grew up into a mischievous toddler, and developed the... snap, what trait does he have again? Loves The Outdoors, Athletic, and... Doesn't Like Art.


The parents felt like they needed some time together, alone.
They chatted, and smiled, while they cuddled up on the bed.
Apari kissed his wifes hair lovingly...





Where were the children, you may ask?
Playing a perpetual game of peek-a-boo!
Yes, everyone in the Sims Family was feeling a little odd lately.
They had found themselves needing to go to the bathroom, and then forgetting about it immediately.



All too soon (actually, no) it was little Rowan's birthday again!
And yes, to the left you can see a very pregnant Kadee, cheering for her soon to be middle child.
I'd say a neighbour gave her that dress... if she knew any.


Now being old enough, Alys helps out in the garden and learns skills she must possess as both a woman and a matriarch.
Her mothers third pregnancy was proving to be more difficult and tiring, and she spent a good deal of time reading on the hanging chair.


Rowan has his own lessons to learn, as he is now a man in his fathers eyes.
If Apari were living in the present, he would wear glasses.
So, the bo-- man took up fishing, and caught his first minnow, but his father wouldn't let him take up any of his precious fish bowls.



What's this!? Kadee has gone into labour unexpectedly! When she caught her breath, she moved to the main house. "I'm getting too old for this."

And, after some trial... a beautiful little boy was born. They already had a named picked out, regardless of gender.
Isley is friendly and absent-minded. They hope he will grow into a strong young man.

Tribe Lessons

Alys will learn many, many things as she grows into a woman, and becomes the matriarch of the Sims.
She must communicate in the native tongue.
"Repeat after me, Alys... Chemicals are made in a Laboratory by Scientists!"

Her steps must be strong...
She must learn important ancestral secrets and
ceremonies.
But I think everyone agrees the most important thing is to be... potty trained.
"Good dog."



As Alys' mind grew, so did something else.
But this time Kadee was prepared.
It was a surprisingly short delivery, Apari stayed by her side instead of buggering off to make a sandwich.




Their families tips paid off - a son was born! They named him Rowan.
He would be a great support and comfort, around the home, and in Apari and Kadee's old age.

And shortly after.....
Puberty is hard, Alys.

Tribe Expansion

If you couldn't tell from the end of last chapter, this happened!
I couldn't change Kadee's maternity clothes.
"What's in there?"
A baby, dummy.
I really should've gotten them some of those pregancy books.... we don't want a Blue Lagoon situation here.
TOO LATE.

Her waters broken! Oh, wait, it's just the sink.

A few hours later, and it happens for real! "AAIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEE"
And where is Apari, you may ask?

He is preparing a meal, starving to death, and celebrating his birthday, all while the missus pushes a baby out. What a multitasker.

...And finally, a baby is born.
Beautiful, Bouncing, Baby Girl - comes with free blanket!
They named her Alys.
She was born with Couch Potato & Genius traits.
After that long journey through the birth canal, Alys went straight to sleep in her crib.







...But not before getting a hug from her Daddy.








Oh, and I built a little hut to put kids in. I need to do a lot of money-making, because it's empty and probably too small......

Tribe Ceremony

What have the Sims been doing since we left them? Skilling.... Apari wants to catch 13 perfect fish.
Also, I get points for mastering athletic! "Feel the burn!"

Sooo..... that's my kitchen ;p *clears throat* moving on.

Oh, and Kadee's been gardening and stuff.
After all those displays of manliness, Kadee decided to propose to Apari.
They'd been dating for a while, and I actually thought they were engaged and this was going to be the marriage ceremony.




And so it was! The Tribal Marriage Ceremony was performed infront of a big-ass sacred rock with a flying pig on it. Appropriate. It was a private enchange of vows, due to there being no other Tribe members to be found in Riverview.

We haven't seen much of Kadee this chapter, but we'll see - perhaps more than we'd like - of her next time! (which will be soon.)
And, oh, yeah...

DOO DEE DOO DOO... DOO DOO!
