Return of the Imaginairum: Pixie's Legacy

[loveSims]

Oh no don't stop now! I want to see the nooboo! Awesome update.

[samoht04]

Lol, Pixie is just awesome!  I like IFs in small doses... Hope the family arguement ends in time to witness the birth!

[Tears of Jade]

Damon seems to be in full big brother mode...I wonder who Bryan will end up with? Of course that's me and my weirdness wondering that while everything else is going on

[KrispyNickyB]

After a long night of push, shove, and cmooonnn goooalll baby Nicholas was born. I'm not sure why the doctor yelled "cmon goal", but I think the man was a little crazy. Damon and I named little Nicholas after his mother. We all agreed it was the right thing to do. Nicky brought peace and hope to the Imaginariums. She showed Sebastian a better way to live. Money and owning the world wasn't the end all to everything.

Little Nicholas was the second step to helping the future of Hidden Springs. He was the combination of both worlds. With him came the symbol of peace. Damon and I couldn't have been prouder of our little bundle. He's cute too! He has the tiiinnneesssttt little fingers and toes. He giggles when we tickle them too. It makes me laugh when he laughs.

Damon and I drove home very early the next night. My crazy doctor kept us late to "inspect" the new "specimen". I think we need a new doctor. Anyways, we came home to find Bryan and Star in the yard kissing. Star was very obviously expecting a nooboo of her own. Bryan stopped kissing her for a second to explain.

"Hi guys this is Star. We are married, moving in, oh yeah and we used your crib in our room, " Bryan grinned holding Star's hand.

Damon's face turned from pale to red to fury, "Bryan look that's Nichloas's crib. You can't have it. Dad will show you how to make your own."

I was kind of proud of him. This time he didn't try to punch some common sense into Bryan. Bryan has grown up to be the most interesting sim of them all. He loves a good party, wants to be a rockstar, and wasn't born with any common sense whatsoever. Mom is worried he'd forget to feed himself if she didn't remind him. It's okay I didn't mind sharing my maternity clothes with her.

Star seems very doe eyed. She adores Bryan. However, she seems a bit young and naive. Then again they both are. It's hard to believe Damon and I are only a few years older than them. For now we are one big family squeezed into a very tiny Rookery. I think it may be back to the drawing board for Sebastian. He figured out how to expand it the first time around so Damon and I could have an area together.

Mom insists that Bryan and Star's nooboo will sleep downstairs with them. Bryan's happy with that. In his own words, "We'd forget to water it." Mom hasn't the heart to tell them that you don't water a baby. Hopefully though their common sense will kick in. Maybe it will if I hit them with a bat?

So I stand here little Nicholas filling you in on all the happenings. Your Dad tries his hardest to teach your Uncle how to be a grown up man. Yes I laugh too when it happens. Grandma and Grandpa just go with the flow. I think your Grandpa may retire soon. He's taken a liking to fishing. Bryan well he is pursing a record deal in Bridgeport. That's not good news for the baby and Star. Star says she wants to be leader of the free world but not here.

I'm not sure what's going to happen to us little Nicholas...okay Nicholas is way to long of a name. I think I'll call you Nick from now on. You like that don't ya? You have the cutest smile...wait what's that in your crib?

"D...d...d..DAAAMMMOOONNN!!" Pixie screams and faints in shock.

Damon rushes in and stares, "Dear Imaginarium...she's not alone..."

[MoonsAreBlue]

Oh, don't leave us hanging like this!!

[KrispyNickyB]

Nicholas, I love you you know this right? Well....then explain that doll in your crib. Where'd it come from. Who is it? How could it just appear. After all this time. It's not fair. I was alone all alone. For years....and then suddenly someone just popped up. Out of the blue. It's not fair...just not fair.

Damon picked up the doll and turned it over in his hands. There didn't seem to be anything extraordinary about it. I kept saying there had to be. I could sense it I could feel it. Then Damon suggested something I hadn't done since I became real again. He wanted me to transform back into my doll state.

The thought of being invisible again terrified me. Answers were needed. I couldn't sleep at night without knowing them. So I transformed back for a moment.

Hello Pixie. It's me Laurliana

"Holy fish sticks and toast! Lae? Is it really you? Where the world have you been. I thought you disappeared like the others"

I did. I've been lost in a big nosy city. I've seen dump trucks, wastelands, and the back of more post offices than I ever care to. You're real...how. How'd you break this curse?

So I set to explaining. Damon stood patiently unable to hear anything going in. I promised to help Lae and make her whole again also. We didn't quite know how though. For the moment she said she's keep Nick company. Lae says she's drawn to him. She also says Bridgeport is a nasty dirty place and don't banish her back. How could I banish my childhood best friend?

After some experimenting we figured out how to talk without me being in doll form. Damon doesn't mind. Mom and Sebastian are used to "weird and crazy things." I usually set Lae in the living room so she can feel a part of the action during the day. At night though she insists on being right there next to Nick. She claims he needs her.

Panicking in the living room sent us running and cutting my conversation with Lae short. We were going to document and compare notes on the curse later. Star was in labor and Bryan couldn't do anything but panic. Thankfully Sebastian calmly got Bryan to listen long enough to take her to the hospital.

Star had a short easy labor. They were back after only a few hours. Bryan and Star had a precious little baby girl named Aura. Everyone was attached to the little one immediately. Everyone but Bryan and Star that is. They put the crib next to Nick's downstairs. Neither of them ever pay attention to their little girl or wish to.

Don't forget to write how that bothers you.

You interrupting my writing completely throws this book off. How are you doing this anyway?

Call it comic relief and I'm bored. Have you forgotten already how it is to be like this?

Noo but we are talking about the family now.

Continue on. I won't say that they are thinking about leaving

Bryan and Star wouldn't leave would they? They'd take Aura right...right?

That I don't know

That fact made a bit of my hair get a little lighter. Sims get grey hair...Imaginariums hair just turns a lighter shade little by little.

[samoht04]

Poor Aura! I'm glad that there is another Imaginarium! 

[MoonsAreBlue]

Congrats for the new nooboo! I hope Star and Bryan don't leave her, and I hope Laurliana turns real soon. Great story!

[Tears of Jade]

Dun dun dun! What's going to happen now?

[KrispyNickyB]

Am I going to fast? I feel like I'm on a roll and keep wanting to type. However, then I see I juustt posted oh yesterday. I have a ton of pictures though. Debate over I'll post anyways. If you want me to slow down you can just say so

Oh and don't get confused if I spell Laeanna Laurana's name a hundred different ways. I literally cannot remember how I spell it when I write.

Mom says they grow up fast. She is completely right. In order to celebrate the nooboo's birthdays we all had a special dinner. Not that Aura or Nick could eat it.

Or me

Was I talking to you?

Just saying I liked steak...and salmon...and grilled steak and salmon

Never mind the menu, Nick loved the little faeries that came to spread their magic. He cooed and giggled waving his little fist trying to catch one. For a moment I almost wanted him to stay small and cuddly. I've become attached to both of the little ones. Fondness turned into frustration quickly. We kept trying to take pictures but for every time Aura would smile Nick would blink. Then Aura would pick her nose and Nick would smile. Damon and I gave up after about an hour of bad shots. So I'll paste the best one in here. Live this one down little stubborn boy. You are so much like your Dad.

Sebastian, Damon, and Bryan constructed the empty spare room to a play room. It's perfect for little tikes to play in. Our bedroom is off to the side. It's also open to the living room. So no matter what someone is around in the house to keep an eye on them. Mom, Star, and myself set up the dollhouse, xylophone, and blocks. All of the things to help a toddler learn everything they need to know.

I tried to convince Star to move Aura upstairs with them. She kept brushing me off saying it was better she was downstairs. I have a bad feeling about them two. It doesn't feel right. It feels disturbing for lack of a better word.

I heard the front door shut at about four am the next morning. It was the one thing we knew was coming. It wasn't a surprise at all. Yet still we all hoped they wouldn't do it. I picked up the letter and read.

"Pix,
              I got a huge huge huge deal with a record company in Bridgeport. It's worth a lot of money. We know you guys think very little     about wealth. It's been my life long dream to be a rockstar and this little island can't get me there. Star wants to rule the world...she'll give you the island though.  I don't think she'd dare touch it. Take care of our little boobear. We'll visit often. A big city is no place for a kid. Not to mention we'd forget to water her. We will visit often and send presents to her. Later guys!

Bryan"

So now I'm the mother of two instead of just one and loveable Aunt. I couldn't change their minds. Many family arguments
had happened to try and change their minds. It was best though. Aura would get the best care here. Not to mention she's
a happy and healthy little girl.

There's always Nick and I! Don't forget us...speaking of which can you tell your kid to stop squeezing so hard when he hugs? Sheesh, I don't want my head to pop off before we figure out how to break my curse!

[MoonsAreBlue]

Poor Aura! Bryan and Star are so irresponsible. By the way, the first and second lines of the letter are cut off for me when I read it.

[KrispyNickyB]

I changed it. That's what I get for experimenting.

[MoonsAreBlue]

I changed it. That's what I get for experimenting.

It's okay. I just couldn't see the last couple words. But now I can!

[Tears of Jade]

Awww the kids are so cute!

[KrispyNickyB]

No one ever told me how quickly babies grow up. Aura and Nick are both ample musicians on their little xylophones. Aura's read every book we leave lying around for her also has mastered the little peg box. A piece of me wishes to keep them little and cute forever. What mother doesn't ya know?

Everyone helps out with the little ones. I've debated on a career change. I've been helping out at the school. However, I just like being at home with the kids. Damon teases me for becoming such  homebody. I like kids...I like being a Mom. I like playing pretend and all of the things that come with it.

Then it hits me. I want another one badly. Damon and I talked late into the night about the possibility. We both were kind of scared. Would we be able to support another one? We already had Aura and Nick. Both were very young. However, a few days later I was very nauseous. Then I realized ready or not our little family was about to become bigger.

Damon is very excited about nooboo number two. I am too. I can't wait to announce it to everyone at the birthday party. Mom and I have been cooking all day long for Aura and Nick's birthday party. We've been teaching little Aura on who Bryan and Star are to her. They are traveling in for the party.

I just hope Star isn't too upset when she realizes Aura won't call me anything but Mama.

The family gets here and what do you know? We can't start the party. Apparently, it was the paparazzi's time to meet Grim Reaper. I've never seen a grim reaper before. All of the sims refer to him as Grim. He's a very skinny bony person. You can't see his face. Which is rather ridiculous. Why hide in a black cloak? Everyone seemed skittish and afraid of him. They thought it was a bad omen.

Sims are so superstitious. Why on earth would it be a bad omen for someone to pass away right outside. Now the fact he stayed for the party. That I will agree was a little weird. Good thing we had two cakes. Grim ate three pieces. He also laughed and pointed as each toddler went up to the cake to blow out the candles. Why on earth would he laugh at that?

Aside, from Grim creeping out all the sims the party was a success. Everyone enjoyed themselves and had a great time laughing and talking. Star and Bryan enjoyed playing with their little girl for the day. Aura still insisted I lift her to the birthday cake though. I think she's a bit on the shy side. Two children and a nooboo on the way. This house is becoming a kid's paradise. We trip over toys everywhere. It's a good problem though.
