Chapter 98: Parting Is Such Sorrow


Julius: Zahra Hollingsworth, I love you with all my heart.





Zahra: As I do you.





Julius: I'm so lucky to be able to wake up next to you every morning and to be with you every day.








Grim: So, you know, it's not like I woke up one day and said 'hey, I wanna be the reaper'. It just sort of happened.
Dude: Yeah, I can see how that would be a bit tough.
Grim:  You don't know the half of it. All day long all I get is weaping and wailing. It really brings me down.





Dude: Well, to be frank, what you do is not really very pleasant.
Grim: I know, but what can I do. On the few times I've gone on strike and just not reaped all I get is sims and watchers writing huge bug reports to EA. Who then bust my butt about me not doing my job! I just can't win!





Dude: Well have you thought about getting a helper, like a apprentice or something. Someone who you could plan a sort of shift-work rotation. Give you a break from all the pressure maybe?
Grim: Tried that. Everyone just complained that I was busting their games making them see double.
Dude: Well, guess you're just gonna have to get your big boy pants on and get with it. Eh.
Grim: It's just not fair.





Julius: How was your day at school Caleb?
Caleb: It was quite good. You know that kid that kept nicking my lunch?
Julius: Yep.
Caleb: Well I made sure that cookie laced with great grandpa's laxatives was right at the top of my lunchbox.
Julius: And?
Caleb: The kid didn't get out of the toilets all afternoon!
Julius: Told you it would work!





Caleb: I actually felt a little sorry for him. He was sitting on the toilet crying and pooping all at the same time.
Julius: Aww, well, it won't have done him any harm and besides, you got to teach bullies a lesson or they'll never leave you alone.
Caleb: I know dad. Another part of me found it really funny...like REALLY funny! Does that make me a bad person?
Julius: Nope!
Caleb: Well, I threw some extra toilet paper over the top of the cubical and left him to it.





What are you two doing?
Mac: Just meeting...err?
Ramin: Ramin.
Mac: Just meeting Ramin.
Over the hedge?
Mac: As you see.





Mac: Well, welcome to the house Ramin.
Yeah yeah....he's just hired help...moving on.
Mac: That's a little cold.
Well, I'm sick and tired of crying over you all so I'm just not going to like any more of you..so that when you all die I won't care.
Ramin: I see a flaw in your logic watcher.
Oh yeah? What's that?
Ramin: I'm extremely likeable.





Oh Noooo...See, what did I tell you? <sobbing> Oh Jasmine.
Brianna: Oh no... Aunty Jasmine, this is terrible.
Grim: Oh dang IT! What is it with these darn doors and windows that look like doors. It's pretty humiliating having to feel my way along a window...




Mac: I love you Jasmine, I'm going to miss you so much.
Jasmine: Tell dad I love him....love you sis... <Whispering> Take care..of ...





Grim: Ha! Check that out, even the women on TV are sobbing their hearts out!





Grim: K *sigh* Jasmine Hollingsworth, daughter of Winston, sister of Mackenzie...check. Oh and sister of Blaize. Born 81 days ago...mother...Oh! That's a little odd...Pollinator Number 3#. Most unusual sim name. Hmmm... Long life, completed many aspirations. Quite remarkable, much like her brother. Hard worker... Kind heart... Oh! great Aunt to Caleb. Oh, poor kid.
Oh please Grim, hurry up, this is agony.
Grim: Hang on... Friends with most of Oasis Springs...oh and Willow Creek! Very popular sim. An unusual amount of nieces and nephews.
Grim! Please....hurry UP <sobs>




Goodbye Jasmine, thank you for everything you did...





Dude?
Dude: Hmm? I'm busy. Can it wait?





Dude!





It's Jasmine...
Dude: No.





Mac: You can dance all you like but when this songs finished, you know I'm going to kick your butt.





Caleb: Hey! Watcher! What's Mr Reaper doing up in my bedroom?





Caleb: <Putting away his toys> So Mr Reaper came and took Great Aunty Jasmine back to his house?
Mac: Umm.. it's something like that.





Mac: I'm sorry that it feels like you are losing everyone you love but I will always be here for you, and your mum and of course Great Grandpa too. We won't ever leave you.
Caleb: It's ok. I'm sad but I know you all love me.





RIP Jasmine. *sigh*   :(

@oshizu , oh so nice to know that I'm not the only person who has failed a dynasty because of clicking on an aspiration by accident. That's how I failed my first attempt. Unlike Dude though...that sim had actually completed it properly. I've decided not to try to undo the completion of renaissance sim with Dude. I just wont use the reward trait or the 5,000 points. I really don't want to make him quit his job and start 2 others as I love the fact that he has super maxed his science career to +8 and growing. lol I'll run some of the other immortals through renaissance sim eventually and use the points for potions so, you know, that'll be handy I guess.

Chapter 99: Visitors



Caleb: So do you want to play with me? I've got a good idea ...
Giovanni Pancakes: Sure!





Caleb: Right so Giovanni and Mabel, you guys are the goodies. Me, Leland and Timothy are going to be the space pirates.
Mabel: What's Fabian?
Fabian: I'm going to be the space monster as well as the ref in case you little people get outta control!





Some time later....
Zahra: I did get a little worried when you weren't home on time.
Caleb: Sorry mum. We were all having so much fun that I just forgot the time.





Dude: So... great grandson. You've just maxed your logic skill. How's that feel?
Caleb: Pretty good! I might go start working on my charisma now eh.
Dude: Or you could go play.
Pffff...play! That's for sissies. Caleb's a skilling machine! Eh Caleb?
Caleb: Actually I quite like working on skills.
That's my boy!





Zahra: Hmm... I don't think I like how this one's turning out. Feels 'wrong' somehow.
Blaize: Well, finish it anyway hun. Sometimes it's the ones that you struggle with that become masterpieces in their own right.





Huh! Talking about masterpieces! That's awesome Blaize!
Blaize: Thanks.
We'll hang it up in the hall eh?
Blaize: Nice.





We've got a visitor downstairs that you might...just might wanna talk to. *grin*





Mac: How lovely to see you again! Oh I've missed you.





Mal: And I you, love. How are you?





Mac: ...So then Zahra came home really annoyed.
Mal: So, she has to deliver a nooboo before she can get her promotion... even though her promotion bar is full AND there is a tick at the end?
Mac: Right.
Mal: Well, that seems a little tough. Ooo, that's the spot...ahhh, right there.








Mal: Umm...maybe we could slip away, upstairs for a bit?
Mac: Great minds think a like my love.





Dude: Oh Jasmine! Oh love! So good to see you.
Jasmine: You too dad.





Julius: I'm so proud of you! You're doing so well son.
Caleb: Thanks dad.





Julius: oooOOO squeezy hug.
Caleb: Lol





Aww, this is so nice. Just like the old days.
Mac: Yes it is.






Jasmine: Hmm, Julius's cooking getting is getting really good! This is delicious.
Mac: I know! Don't let the watcher know though...
Jasmine....yeah, she'll have you all working out in seconds!
Both: lol





Winston: So, you're ok? Hun?
Jasmine: I am. honestly. you don't need to worry about me, or any of us. It's fine, peaceful even.

Chapter 100: Caleb's Teen Birthday



Julius: Good morning my love.





Julius: With my love.
Zahra: I love you.








Zahra: Oh, I can't tear myself away from you!
Julius: Hmm. Have a great day at work. Maybe today you'll get to deliver a nooboo.
Zahra: Love you. Hopefully...





Caleb: You know watcher... I don't really get the attraction to playing with dolls. It's kinda boring.
Hmm, maybe more of a girls thing. I dunno either really. I used to use my dolls for shooting practise. Get a whole lot of rubber bands and ping them at them until they all fell over. Apart from that I found dolls boring too.
Caleb: Hey! That's actually quite a good idea!
Well, it'll have to wait 'cos it's your birthday.





Caleb: Hmm... I wish for *deep breath*





Dude: Happy Birthday!





Caleb: Woah!
Dude: *grin* Hehehe, 'nice' birthday suit! lol
Julius: That's my boy!





Julius: Happy birthday son! May all your dreams come true, now and in the future.
Caleb: Thanks, love you dad.
Julius: Love you too.




Caleb: You know dad, I might go change things up a little. I don't think this 'looks' really me.
Julius: Sure thing.





Dude: Happy birthday Caleb. Don't go getting any crazy get-up on, you got school in two days.
Caleb: lol, I won't grandpa.





Julius: I can't wait to see what he chooses.
Lol, me neither. I asked him if he wanted help but he shooed me away.
Julius: Well, he's a teen boy... doesn't want a girly watcher hanging around him.
Lol. Well, least he's got two days before school starts. You guys should go on holiday or something.
Julius: Good idea.






Huh? Julius?
Dude: Nooo...omg...Julius.





<sobbing> Oh No. Julius, don't go now....Not now....Oh Julius. I'm so sorry.
Julius: So tired....





Julius: Tell Caleb and Zahra I love them. Look after my boy Winston.
Dude: I will. I will....





<Stunned> Oh no. Who's going to tell Caleb...





Grim: Hmm, didn't expect to see you guys so soon again.





Grim: Poor Caleb, this sucks.





<silence>

So much death, the worst part of the dynasties for sure. You see so many sims die :( On the bright side, you have the most romantic, sweetest sim relationships ever. I love it :)

Oh no, poor Caleb :(  It sucks when Sims start dying in dynasties, it always seems like it happens in groups.  It's nice that all your Sims are visiting in ghost form though!

Chapter 101: A Break Away


Dude: Man it's nice out here!
Sure is. If this doesn't help Caleb then I don't know what will.
Dude: Poor kid.
I know. If I had to see him crying out by his dad's grave once more I swear my heart was gonna break.
Dude: Wait! What? You have a heart?
Lol, very funny. Hey... remember when we were here last time?
Dude: I do.
And Zesty was with us. *sigh* I still miss Johnny.
Dude: Me too, he was a great friend.
...And you were all pregnant with Blaize. Oh, those were the days.
Dude: Yeah, we've been through a lot eh.
Eh. Mind you I think you were pretty smexy all pregnant...
Dude: Oi! Cut that out.
*snicker*






I'm going to go check on Caleb, what you gonna do?
Dude: Horseshoes.
K then.
Dude: What?
Just looking.
Dude: Shoo.
Hahaha...'horse'...shoo. get it?
Dude: <laughing in spite of himself> Geez, just go will ya.





How goes it kid?
Caleb: <unenthusiastically> K.





Woo! You caught a trout! Nice!
Caleb: Yeah.
Sheesh anymore enthusiasm from you and I'm gonna be bowled over by the emotional rush.
Caleb: Heh.
There ya go. See ya face didn't crack when ya smiled.
Caleb: Hmm.





Random Lady: That's so tough on the kid, losing his dad like that.
Dude: Yeah.
Random Lady: Boys really need their dad's. Still, great he's got you.
Dude: <Thoughtfully> I guess so.




Oh! So pretty!
Caleb: Yeah. I'm gonna trap them in a little cage and pluck their wings off one by one.
<Gasp> OMG! What?
Caleb: Relax....just messing with you.
Cripes! had me there.
Caleb: <Half hearted laugh> You're so gullible.
I know.





Dude: Watcher?
Yeah?
Dude: This woman's chewing my ear off...
Oh? Umm...So, err.. Ranger Lady, do you have to check up on all the other campers too?
Ranger: Yes, actually I do. See you later Winston.
Dude: I owe you.





Caleb: I might go say hi to the ranger and ask her where all the good fishing spots are.
Yeah, about that. I wouldn't.
Caleb: Oh?
Hmm, talks a hind leg off a donkey apparently.





Caleb: These firefly's are actually pretty cool.




Caleb: I wonder if dad's one of those stars out there.
<Gently> Is that what you think?
Caleb: Yeah, maybe one of the brighter ones, you know.
Then I'm sure that's right. Sons and dad's have that kind of connection, you know.
Caleb: Yeah.





Eww...creepy little skitter things.
Caleb: Lol... don't be such a girl.





Oh you're not.
Caleb: Sure I am.





Dude: Oh nice, done yet?
Caleb: Nearly I think. Well their legs have stopped waving about so that's probably a good sign.
<Dry retching>
Dude: Good one Caleb, dish 'em up then.





Caleb: <enthusiastically> Grandpa! Watcher! Look at these critters. Way cool!





Caleb: Thanks for bringing me here grandpa.
Dude: You're welcome.
Caleb: I know I've been on a bit of a downer...
Dude: No you haven't ... you're doing just great. It's no small thing losing your dad. Come on...last one to the tent gets the rocks and lumpy side!
Caleb: Lol.





Next Morning....

Morning, That smells interesting.
Caleb: Morning. Hmm... insect repellent. I got eaten alive last night.





Caleb: So... you live way up here, all alone...like, all the time?
Hermit: That's right.
Caleb: Is it lonely?
Hermit: No, I like being alone. Besides how can you ever be truly alone with nature surrounding you?
Caleb: Oh I love being outdoors too! I always feel so much better when I'm outside.
Hermit: Did you want to forage for some plants while you are here?
Caleb: Actually, <visibly brightening> that would be great. You don't mind?
Hermit: Not at all my dear.






Caleb: Way cool!








Ranger: So, keep your eye on where you want your lure to land...and a gentle flick with your wrists...and there you have it. The perfect cast.
Caleb: <Rolling his eyes> Riiight.





Ranger: There you go! A good sized fish. Well done. Remember we have a 'Catch and Release' Policy here. Anything you don't want for food or as a trophy needs to be released.
Caleb: K.





It's really done him a world of good.
Dude: It has. Shame it's time to go home.
Personally, I think you're running scared from the Lady Ranger.
Dude: Lol, you know me too well watcher.
*Snort*






Opps, looks like we got home just in time!
Mac: Hmm, was pretty close watcher.
Right, must remember that for next time.






Dude: Your music's coming along really well Caleb.
Caleb: Thanks. I like playing out here. Makes me feel ...
Dude: What?
Caleb: Umm...nothing. I dunno.
Dude: Close to your dad?
Caleb: Yeah. <shrug>
Dude: That's good then.
I think you should come inside now Caleb. There's someone I think you'll want to chat to.
