Warner 7: Round 9

 

 We're inching ever closer to the end of round 9! Next up is the new home of Island Warner and Meter Vega. Island has the honor of being both an only child and a middle child at the same time in Angelica Warner and Andre Holiday's house, while Meter is the eldest child of Temple and River Vega.

 

 Hmm, not quite the education career that Island was hoping for but I guess it will do for now.

 

 As will this...

 

 What are you guys up to?

Island: Playing catch.

Shouldn't you two, you know, be planning a wedding?

Island: Not yet. We barely had enough money for basic furniture. Plus, Meter starts work later today. We'll have the wedding later, when we can do it right.

 

 Island: Hi, Valley...no, don't try to use the stove. Just heat something up in the microwave. I'm sure Dad will teach you how to cook when he has time. He was a celebrity chef, after all. And make sure you remember to feed the dog, ok?

Everything going ok back home?

Island: I guess Valley is having a tough time adjusting to being an only child.

 

 Uh-oh...I know that look. I'll just be in the other room...

 

 It's a bit of a pay cut, but at least it's in his desired career.

 

 I love having two Sims with the same lifetime want. So simple.

 

 Although it looks like Island is going to have to wait a few days to really get started.

 

 Nice going, Meter.

Meter: Thanks.

 

 Concerned about baby weight?

Meter: I've packed on a few pounds since we moved in.

So, in the past few days? 

 

 Uh-oh...good thing these guys have an alarm.

 

 And so the cop with blonde pigtail braids takes down the robber.

 

 Looks like it's baby time!

 

 One more...

 

 You've got to be kidding me. Another girl?

Island: I thought you wanted us to have girls to pass the houses through.

I do, but by my calculation that's...six girls in a row now. 

Island: Well, then Katniss here should have a lot of friends.

Katniss...hmm, why does it seem like I've been hearing that name everywhere recently?

 

 Nice job.

Island: Thanks.

 

 Let's see...brown hair, medium skin, and I think I see blue eyes. A pretty good mix of both parents.

 

 Happy birthday, dear Katniss...

 

 Wow, she's ready for the toddler prom, isn't she?

 

 Much better.

Meter: Thanks, I think so too.

 

 Whoa, when did it become winter?

Island: I barely noticed the change too, until the snow came.

 

 Um, Meter, you might want to stop reading for a minute.

Meter: Why?

I don't know...maybe because there's an arctic flightless bird in your living room? 

Meter: Ahh, I'll deal with it in a minute.

...Ok, I think it's time for me to make my exit now. I'll see all of you next round.

A Message From the Mysterious Voice: This house is so easy it borders on boring. Island and Meter have the same aspiration and the same lifetime want, so keeping them both happy is pretty simple. There was no wedding this week. I lost track of time and didn't get a chance to do it. It will happen next round for sure, though. And yeah, six girls in a row. For everyone's information, of the 11 new houses set up after college graduation that I've played only two have had boys. Matching these kids up later on is going to be a hassle.
