Puttin on the Ritz Chapter 2: Seriously Guys?

Step 1: Welcome everyone back to Mysterious Falls A. Finally get prospective steward to move in. Scream, “Seriously?” when he moves in with

only 1K simoleans.

Step 2: Thank plumbob he dug up two treasure chests the next

day.

Especially since Carmen is expecting again.

Step 3: Be fair and acknowledge that at least Ben isn’t totally useless and takes care of baby Kira and he does have a job in the military. And he’s done a

pretty good job of taking care of himself so far too.

Step 4: Have to admit Carmen and Jason are very

cute together.

Step 5: Have cash monkey bring home a promotion and

monies.

Step 6: Party down after expanding the living room with

the cash.

Step 7: Hang up wife’s artwork in the kitchen.

Step 8: Be totally unsurprised that Kira grew up and looks like her

mother.

Step 9: Prove that even though you have a “cash monkey” you do in fact

occasionally do things yourself.

Step 10: Make passing out in one’s dinner plate

a tradition.

Step 11: Break the 4th wall and look totally smug at having twins and getting knocked up for the third time like 3 seconds after

they are born.

Step 12: Speak to the pixel that cannot hear you and tell him to bring in more

cash and that you swear to smite him if he bakes cheesecake.

Step 13: Teach first born daughter Kira to walk at the

last minute.

Step 14: Grow up into cowgirl outfit and be completely out of the running for heirship as you have 0 interest in entertainment, and 1 playful point to your name.

Furthermore, be disgusted at the pig sty you are growing up in.

Step 15: Invent niffty device to help eliminate food passing outage during

third pregnancy.

Step 16: Just generally lounge around all day and enjoy

yourself.

Step 17: Realize you totally didn’t tell everyone the twins names. Meet Trent

and Ethan who aged up.

Step 18: Earn career reward and aspiration points from working on

body skill.

Step 19: Still be relegated to sleeping on the sofa at night despite being the

family bread winner.

Step 20: Still look after offspring of hosts relatively well. Oh look another non-heir contender 3 interest in entertainment and 3 playful points. Geez these kids

are totally in the wrong Mysterious Falls.

Step 21: Take up mom’s hobby and start painting pictures I will never be

able to sell.

Step 21: Flood the bathroom so live in Townie will have a huge mess to clean up when he gets off work. Nice Trent. Wow

these kids are spoiled.

Step 22: Stare at the computer and remind the creator person you are not spoiled since you make your own bed

every morning.

Step 23: Forget to mention that you blare the tv loudly while steward tries to earn skills to

earn more money for your family to sit around and do nothing.

Step 24: Randomly decide to let your wife teach you to build body skill. I mean you are a knowledge sim

and have nothing else to do during the day. Well except teach Trent and Ethan their skills….

Step 25: Get around to training kids to walk.

Step 26: Realize while Ben slaves away fixing the tub you don’t have a decent toddler pic of Ethan

anywhere. And he’s basically the heir with 7 interest in entertainment.

Step 27: Think fine just show a child pic, only to first find one of Trent as a child

playing with the kitten you randomly let the family have.

Step 28: Seriously? Where the hell are my pics of

Ethan?

Step 29: Oh wait here’s one. And you totally can’t see his face. Decide you’re gonna just tell everyone you are waiting to surprise them with what he looks

like rather than admit you didn’t take any decent pics of him.

Step 30: Hallelujah! You did take a decent front view. So here he is in all his monkey faced glory: Ethan Ritz. Heir apparent of

Mysterious Falls A….

Step 31: “SERIOUSLY GUYS? MORE KIDS? Just when I get comfortable with 3? YOU’RE KNOWLEDGE SIMS

DAMMIT!” I knew I shouldn’t have left it up to ACR and the sims

to decide how many kids they would have each generation…Oh well guess we just got to live with it.

Onto Mysterious Falls B!

Step 32: Start off with a nice calm pic of Marisa teaching Heir apparent Kimberly to talk. I say heir

apparent since she’s got a max interest in work…and rule is in this hood those who love to work are the

heirs.

Step 33: Teach daughter all her skills early and have relatively easy

pregnancy.

Step 34: Finally find the dream job in the gamer career while wife and

daughter play happily in the living room.

Step 35: Realize that without all the distractions you are part of a very

close knit family.

Step 36: Grow up into a very attractive young

lady.

Step 37: Be brought up to be helpful and (deny) the 8 playful points that tank your fun meter every day. Also, greet your new

little brother Tommy.

Step 38: Set the house on fire as your husband heads off to the first day of

work.

Step 39: Be a total badass and put the fire

out yourself.

Step 40: Totally miss the photo op of Jason tucking little Kimberly into bed

AGAIN. *sigh*

Step 41: Look after little Tommy after work.

Step 42: Prove a sim’s personality can totally lie…8 playful points my aunt

fanny. She reads constantly.

Step 43: Continue to be awesome by digging up your

2nd treasure chest.

Step 44: Watch Tommy grow up.

Step 45: Give daughter a garden to teach her the importance of hard

work and responsibility.

Step 46: Dutifully look after it everyday after school and on

weekends netting yourself a bronze talent badge.

Step 47: Prove you and the missus are still madly

in love.

Step 48: Unsurprisingly get pregnant with another child you will probably

barely be able to afford.

Step 49: Mother daughter synchronized passing

out.

Step 50: Become addicted to the

xylophone.

Step 51: Again teach young child all his skills

early.

Step 52: Teach oldest the art of tai chi in the rain to further develop strong

character.

Step 53: Grow up to be a tub pirate and be totally out of the running for

heirship with 3 interest in work.

Step 54: Be totally confused as your sister tries to teach you the

family ways.

Step 55: Bond with big sister over the weekend

anyway.

Step 56: Perhaps give sister run for her money in heirship department despite playful disposition by reading a magazine about work autonomously. I

mean technically you both have 8 playful points.

Step 57: Give birth to a third child and name her

Delphine.

Step 58: Bond with the townie children you bring home from school and prove that even without a phone you can still keep

your social bar up.

Step 59: Try not to laugh at founder attempting to perform

tai chi.

Step 60: Inform Kimberly and the readers that you are pregnant for the

4th time..yeah Seriously she is….

Typical right? Well I guess they are keeping things interesting for me…and you.

So what’s been the same/different so far: Same:

1. Both houses have a first born girl. 2. Both houses decided to have way more pregnancies

than I initially planned on. 3. Both legacies have a pretty awesome first spouse. 4. In Both houses I’ve got sims with the really extreme

personalities that don’t fit their hood’s heirship requirements.

5. Someone in both houses managed to find a treasure chest at a very opportune moment. In Falls A: Benjamin Long (current legacy “steward” “cash monkey” . In Falls

B: Marisa Ritz (Current legacy spouse)

Differences: 1. Mysterious Falls A looks like it could turn

into an Uglacy at the moment. Though truthfully I love Carmen.

2. Mysterious Falls A has a set of twins. 3. Mysterious Falls A has 2 boys while

Mysterious Falls B has 2 daughters in the second generation…so with this one it’s sort of like a parallel except in reverse.

Cool.

Thanks for reading! See you next time!
