ROTFLMAO A robot vampire. I would never have guessed. And I love the pictures, too. They are all so funny, especially the vampire robot sleeping in his coffin next to the urn.
I agree it's very funny, but I'm confused. It looks like Bender was out in the daytime. Does that mean vampire robots can stand the sun? How do they recharge? Is the coffin good enough? Do they say blah? Do they fly?
Bender can stay out in the sun and doesn't appear to die, for some odd reason. The only thing I saw was that he'd run to the nearest bed to recharge his batteries. The coffin is a good way for him to recharge, but he does not stay in his coffin until nightfall. Yes he says blah and he does the funny arm thing. He also can fly. Having a robot vampire changes gameplay a bit because not only am I dealing with a vampire, I'm also dealing with a robot. So he still seems immortal because he's a robot, but I have to keep his fun/social/environmental bars up before he goes nuts. Quite confusing really.
That was my other question. Robots don't age, right? So they're immortal without being vampires, right? Or do they eventually break down? I've got two now so I'm kinda curious.
When Adora and Luis had their thirteenth birthday, their grandfather keeled over. So not only was their day a celebration of life, but it was a day to remember their awesome grandpa that cooked a mean dinner every night and paid more attention to them than their own parents ever did. Bender sold his flower shop, and all that was left of his one room store was a few pieces of furniture. Blake and Jasmine moved the living room into the empty space and bought a new couch. They were rich and could live comfortably for the rest of their lives, but the couple decided to keep their slacker jobs in order to have something to do during the day. They could also move into a mansion, or even back into downtown, but they decided not to. There were too many memories in this little house with the odd expansion to the side. They weren't even sure if they could move the urns of Jasmine's parents and grandparents without ticking off the spirits inside of them. Besides, this was where Luis and Adora grew up, and it would be hard to relocate the family and disrupt the routine. Adora worked as a watergirl for the local ball team. Luis worked at a paintball place out in who knows where. They were both obsessed with money, and they both demanded cellphones. Even though they weren't identical twins, one would wonder if they actually were.
Speaking of mansions, remember Nacho? Yeah, he finally moved the tombstones off his property and into a public cemetary. He did not like the fact that the ghosts did not like his grandchild very much. Enrique moved in with his parents, and he spent the next few days finding a job and finding a girlfriend. He finally found a job as part of the Elite Forces, and was now a Senior Officer in the army. Once his career started going fullspeed, he started looking for someone. The someone turned out to be a selfish, mean, yet otherwise popular woman with the nickname The Diva. Her name was Danielle, and he was head over heals in love with the woman. She seemed to be in love with this man with the dreadlocks and evening coat. She loved his charm, his money, and his house. They were married on the deck next to the bowling alley. Not only that, she was also carrying his child. Diego was born two years after Adora and Luis, and two years before the rest of his cousins (four years before the redheaded one). He had the features and the personality of his grandfather, especially the long hair (for a while he had curly hair) and glasses. He was friends with a few of the kids at the orphanage down the street, and visited there often with his cousins. For a while, he did not even know he had cousins...but oh well.
So, I'm trying to sort out who's who. I don't think I met Adora and Luis before. I think I've traced them back to Jasmine and Blake. And that would mean their granddad who died on their birthday was Francisco. Am I right? All this is because I was going to ask what Granddad was wearing when he died. Is that an outfit from a career?
I probably need to construct a family tree soon. You are correct. Francisco followed in his mother's footsteps and became a celebrity chef. I guess it was fitting that he died in the career outfit. Good news! I made a Sim movie!
It worked! Very funny. Very good. Believe me, I know how much work goes into putting something like that together. Good job. oooo, bed time. good night. :yawn: yawn
Adriana answered the phone one day. It was her cousin Diego. Hey man, whats up? Uh What? Yeah, that was some party the other night Diego, whats up with you? Diego started to sniffle like he was crying. Diego? Grandpahes What? Oh no, dont tell me I have to. Mom and Dad are acting weird after Grandpa Hes a vampire, isnt he? Worse! Hes dead! Dead? He was fine at the party The Grim Reaper came and took him away, during my birthday party Adriana held the phone there for a long while. Diego kept asking if she was there. Sorry about Grandpa, I have to go, she finally said. Mom? Yes dear? It was dinnertime. Everyone was actually eating at the table together, this time. Usually Grandpa Bender was down in his suite, making flower bouquets; or Mom was tending to Fernando; or Dad was busy studying for a promotion. Usually she and Lorena were doing homework and sleeping at this time of day. I hate to say it, but Cousin Diego called today and told me Grandpas dead. Did he? Yeah, he was crying. Such a shame, Bender was sitting with them. He said he had no appetite. He was a good man. Indeed he was. Wonder how Enriques taking it Diego said he was acting weird. I better go call himwhy wasnt there a funeral? I suppose Mom didnt want one. She probably had him buried in the garden Estrella was tearing up. Honey Jamie went over to his wife and comforted her. Her tears spilled over their spaghetti dinner. Lorena and Adriana looked at each other, then snuck away from the dinner table. Wait for me! Fernando was five years old now, and was going to start school the next day. Way to be subtle. Whats that? Quiet? Yes Oh, sorry. I just dont want to see them crywhyd you have to tell them at dinner? Lorena poked her sister on the shoulder. Theyre always busy. Hmm, true. Man, I dont want my birthday spoiled Neither do I. Poor Diego Yeah, having your birthday when your grandpa died Adora and Luis had the same problem. Their grandpa keeled over when they had their birthday party. Fortunately our grandpa Benders a vampire. Hell never die. Uh What? I dont think Grandpa Benders just a vampire What is he then? Fernando piped in. I think hes a robot No way, youre bluffing. No lie. I mean, come on, hes metallic. He has ONE eye. He never eats and he sleeps for a short period of time. But Lorena, he doesnt act like a robot. His speech and voice are very human. He has feelings. You saw him when he moved in with us. He was bawling. Just because he doesnt act like a robot doesnt mean he isnt a robot. Whatever, I dont want to hear it. Wouldnt it be awesome though? I mean, our grandpa being a robot? Fernando was excited and was jumping on Lorenas bed. They had moved into their bedroom to talk. Unfortunately, Bender had passed by their bedroom right when Lorena made her claim. Im a robot? Nah, I couldnt be oneand yethmmHe looked in the hallway mirror. Well, I do have one eyeball. Oh noam I a monster or a freak? Ive never noticed this beforewaitif I havent noticed this before, does it really matter? Everyone likes me, the love of my life loved me for who I am, and my son wouldve told me if there was a problemoh dearshould I get plastic surgery? Should I cure the vampirism? What am I going to do if no one comes to my store anymore? Oh dear, oh dear ---Here are pictures of the twins as teenagers, but I had a memory dump right after they grew up, so...I'll try to take a picture of Diego, but he looks exactly like Grandpa Nacho, and acts like him too.
Jade Barrett Cormier felt an odd presence in her coffin one evening. The coffin was usually quite warm and she could usually not hear a thing. However, she felt extremely cold and she kept hearing a wind-blowing sound. She propped the coffin lid open and stepped out. She still felt cold (well, colder than she had ever felt since becoming a vampire), and there was still that eerie sound in the bedroom. She turned around to see if there was something in her coffin, and she became face to face with her mother-in-law. The ghost of Shenene scared the pee out of Jade. Jade clutched her heart and felt like she was having a heart attack. The spirit floated away, laughing. Jade could not breathe (well, less so than what shed usually do since becoming a vampire) and she collapsed on the floor. Dang, whats up with this family? The Grim Reaper came through the bedroom wall. *tsk tsk* Ive never had one of these before. Scared to death? Eva Cormier had fallen asleep in Grandpa Javiers bed when she came home from school. She woke up and realized that her mother was not up from bed by the time it was dark. Mommy? She searched the house, calling her name. Mommy, where are you? She came to the door of her parents bedroom and found an urn. The Reaper had engraved Jades name onto the stone urn. Eva panicked, screamed, collapsed and cried. She was alone in the house, with an inept nanny and the ghost of her grandmother wandering around in the front lawn. Should I wait for Daddy to come home? Hes an ex-or-cistbut would he be able to bring Mommy back? She sat near her mothers urn for a moment, thinking, wondering, considering the consequences of whatever she thought she could do. She finally decided to use her fathers phone to the Reaper that was in the office. She was not allowed to touch it. Its an emergencyI cant have Daddy sadI cant have Grandpa sadtheyd send Grandma away if they found out she killed Mommy for the Reaper left a note with the urn stating the cause of death. So Eva ran down the stairs. The nanny was preoccupied with the Yummy Channel. She snuck past and went into the office. She found her homework neglected from the night before. She rolled her eyes and went over to the Reapers telephone. She shuddered, then picked up the phone and heard a voice on the other end. May I help you? Yes, could I speak with Mr. Reaper please? This is he. Shouldnt you not be playing with the phone, little girl? Its an emergency. Could you bring my mommy back, please? OookaaayWhats your moms name? Jade. Jade Cormier. Ah yeahhere she is. Hmm its going to cost you. How much? Eva became concerned. She looked over to the desk and saw that her grandpa had left his credit card on it again. Its about $10,000 for a complete resurrection. I dont think a kid like you has that kind of money on her. He laughed a gruesome laugh that made Eva shiver. Try me. She knew not to give personal information over the phone, but this was the Grim Reaper. Waitif this was the Grim Reaper, why would he need $10,000? Oh well, it did not matter. She gave out her grandfathers credit card information. Alright kid. Your mom will be back momentarily. Thank you! Dont let your mom die again now, ok? I can only do this so many times before I decide not to do it again. I wont let her, I promise. Then a green cloud of gas appeared beside the phone. Her mother was back and she was normal. She even looked younger. Mommy! Wha? What happened, sweetie? Howd I end up down here? I was sleeping Uh What she didnt know wont hurt, right? You were sleepwalking, Mommy. Oh was I? Yep. Oh dearthats not good, it couldve been sunny today. Come on honey, lets have dinner. Okay Mommy. I love you! Eva hugged Jade. My, whats this about? Oh, nothing. Jade laughed, took her daughters hand, and they went into the kitchen. Sorry for the depressing content. Grimmy's been having a field day it seems. I'll make it up to y'all by posting a picture of Alonso as an ex-or-cist. Irony of it all is that Eva had her birthday a couple of days afterwards.
A vampire scared to death by a ghost? Gracious, Chee-Z, your sims have most the unusual...lives...*giggle* (No need to apologize for the content. *trying to stop giggling, failing*)
I kept wondering all those things as that event happened. It was just too weird! I'll try to post something soon, I've been swamped with homework the past few days.
"Luis!" "What, Mom?" "Why the heck is there a giant statue of a ninja on the roof?" "I wanted it there." "Luis Lawson, this family may be rich, but that gives you no right to buy whatever you please and put it wherever you want." "Well, why do you guys have a hot tub in the back? And a bubble blower?" "Those are cheaper than that $5000 piece of **** that's on my poor father's roof! I want you to take it back to wherever you bought it, now!" "Aw Mom..." "NOW!" "Fine..." "Man Jaz, I've never seen you that strict before," Blake came home from work right as Jasmine exploded. "Man, looking back, I don't think I ever wanted to be that strict. What's wrong with me?" She slumped down on the couch. "I didn't want to turn into..." "Your mother? Jaz, it's fine to discipline those two when they need a wakeup call." "Yeah, but they've practically raised themselves. They're straight A students, they have successful jobs. Adora's even dating that redheaded guy..." "What a name, Platz." "Yeah...and Luis has a girlfriend too...they sure are growing up fast, Blake. I don't know what I would've done without my folks. I sure do miss them." "Yeah they were great people. Cheer up, Jaz. Let's get some dinner and maybe hit the bed early tonight, if you know what I mean." He winked and laughed. Jasmine laughed and followed Blake into the kitchen. She thought, "You know, things aren't so bad the way they've turned out." She then looked at her daughter wearing the Llama's mascot uniform and she laughed more.
