Okay, two sims in this family have now won the lottery. What's the deal? I've never had any sims win before and now we've got millionaires threefold. Oh well. Free money!
Merlin, meanwhile, spends most of his time relaxing in the pool.
Merlin: 'I feel like you're keeping me around for the wrong reasons.'
Shush, you. The house is dull while we wait for Morgan to ascend the throne.
Merlin: 'Sigh. Fine. I guess I'll just continue to take up space, then...'
Good boy.
Morgan: 'I'm pretty sure we've been over this... I don't like the magic realm.'
Yeah, well, you suck and need help. So, we're here to see the sages.
Morgan: 'Ugh! Can't we just... not?'
Morgan gets some tutelage from the nearest sage but it doesn't do much. I feel like Glaucus leveled up so much more quickly, but maybe I was just much more focused on him. Morgan is usually busy with other things, like prepping for her acting debut.
Speaking of which, Morgan's a Young Adult now! I forgot the cake photo. Anyway, she immediately calls Tomax and then an agency.
Morgan: 'Hey, Tomax? It's Morgan. So... you wanna come hang out? I promise, nothing creepy.'
Yeah, sure. Totally normal.
Morgan spends too much time gussying up and that gives Glaucus time to zero in on his possible soon-to-be son-in-law.
Tomax: 'Oh, hey, Morgan, your dad was just telling me-'
Morgan: 'Ugh, dad! I told you to leave him alone.'
Glaucus: 'Come have a seat, you two.'
Glaucus: 'So, if this is going to happen, I have some ground rules...'
Tomax: 'What?'
Morgan: 'OMG! I have no idea what he's talking about.'
Glaucus: 'You're going to need to improve. No weakbloods here-'
Morgan: 'DAD!'
Mortified, Morgan immediately drags Tomax away. They changed clothes on the way, apparently. Whatever. Magicians.
Tomax & Morgan: 'SPELLCASTERS!'
Whatever.
Anyway, they continue their date.
After some liquid courage, Morgan and Tomax actually hit it off. I'm shocked Glaucus' ridiculousness didn't scare him off.
Looks like Morgan won't have any trouble like her dad did wooing her potential mate. Whew!
First Kiss done! Caspian watches from the background. It's weird to see a generation two spare hanging around. I think he actually aged to an Adult before I turned aging off entirely. Hi, Caspian!
Caspian: 'I was hoping you wouldn't see me. Don't you have this girl to bother?'
Yeah, I do, but it's good to see you out and about.
Caspian: 'And that's exactly why I'll be hurrying home now...'
Spoilsport.
Meanwhile, Becca and Glaucus are up to their old tricks.
Becca: 'You squeezed into that chef's outfit is doing it for me.'
Glaucus: 'Sweet! Uh, I might need some time peeling it off, though.'
You two are gross. That is all.
Speaking of gross... Morgan invites Tomax over to make their relationship 'official.'
Do I need to tell you what your parents use this thing for? No, I won't. I don't want to ruin it...
Still, ew.
When she isn't jumping her boyfriend or practicing her acting, Morgan is trying to raise her spellcaster rank. She still hasn't learned the damned teleportation spell and I haven't seen the tome for it, either. Argh.
At least she's acing this acting thing. I've never played with this career at all, so this a whole new world for me.
So far, it's pretty fun.
While I'm distracted, Becca is being sneaky. I thought I told you
not to do this?
Becca: 'And yet I did. The chili tastes better coming from this big pot.'
Sigh. Do you even know the things your daughter and husband brew in there?
Becca: 'Whatever it is, it's delicious.'
Glaucus throws a dinner party for his chef aspiration and, in true form, the sims all stand around ignoring the perfectly good table behind them.
I didn't have this problem until the most recent round of patches. Annoying.
Sedna drops in for a visit! I'm pretty sure this is her first haunting. How are things?
Sedna: 'Perfectly fine. Being dead's all right.'
That's good. Glaucus is... doing okay, I guess. And now, technically, Morgan is in charge.
Sedna: 'That doesn't give me much comfort.'
No, you're right, of course...
The hair and makeup guy is cute. Maybe a future generation spouse? I like keeping track of suitable sims, even if it's creepy.
He messed up Morgan's hair, however.
Morgan aces her guest role in the Black Sails ripoff. Honestly, this stuff isn't too hard. Like, at all. I wonder if it gets more difficult?
The Sims 1 was brutal with this stuff. Ah, good times...
Tomax hasn't moved in yet. I'm trying to let Morgan out-age him a bit so they're not hugely disparate when they have kids. So, he visits a lot.
His cold weather hoodie makes me think of Desmond from Assassin's Creed, which I find hilarious.
