Note From Our Sponsors (Watchers):

For those readers that don't know.  Artie likes to hop around and read other stories and sometimes he likes to just chat it up with various other Sims.    There have been recent developments revealed that Artie visited Rabbit Character on his way to Lunar Lakes.   He's also been conversing with a special insane lady of the Brooks family.   Both stories, one by samoht04 and one by sdhoey are wonderful reads and I suggest them to anyone and everyone.   

Rabbit Character is the founder of the The Supernatural Characters.   Artie makes his official appearance here.  Thomas' writing is superb and while the story is just getting started, it promises to be a brilliant read.

Colt Brooks is the founder of Colt's Return.   Artie writes to Colt to reveal a secret about Colt's family history that seems to shake sdhoey's bad boy and reveals something of himself in the mix.   Shannon has just hit the halfway mark and I'm sure the second half of the story will be just as engaging as the second.   For Artie's letter to Colt, have a looksee over here but take it from me, the rest of the story is worth it too.

Artie's too awesome to be contained to one story! I'm loving Airica and Addy, these two girls in a family of men. Too many things to love - Gilberto being the only teen not Grim related, self-watering plants, Airica's insanity ("Can't you have your internal conversations in the middle of a field like a normal person?"). It's great. I like Airica for her purple hair, and Addy for her glasses. Very cool.

Thanks for the links, Rica! I had already read the Supernatural Characters, but I wouldn't have checked out Colt if you hadn't pointed it out. One more story for me to read!  ;D

Apparently I deleted the picture of Addy and Gilberto's Prom Picture which is sad.  They were adorable together.  She did make queen which means I was like 15/15.  That's a lot of crowns. 




For Grim there is possibly nothing more fun than a party on a Full Moon.   Darron Crocker, son of Artie Grim, threw such an event.
Artie: "Darron.  Are you ok?  You look a little green."
Darron Crocker: "Arraguaghg."
Artie: "Awesome!  It's going to be one of those nights.  And I've been collecting bottles from forum friends too."


Adrasteia: "Since I couldn't go to the party.. I guess I'll practice my magic down at the graveyard."
..
Adrasteia: "What do you mean it's not safe? I'm related to both of those furballs."


Darron: "Daad!  Why'd you throw that at my head while I was eating?!"
Artie: "Now, son.  We both know your mother doesn't want you eating the garden no matter what excuse you come up with."


Two more of Artie kids are attending Darron's get together.  Morris Littlejohn is here in his circus suit and Whitney Hyman decided to show off his new fangs as well.  He's just less furry than his little brother Morris.


Adrasteia: "Kim!  How could you turn into a zombie?  I'll have to fix that."
Kim Hyman: "Addy.. Don't hurt me."


Adrasteia: "Hahah.  No harm.  I'm sure you'll be right as rain as soon as you thaw babe."


Remember Artie said he had elixirs from you guys... Well he used them .. again and again.














And when he couldn't make Kylie turn into a tragic clow because of her forced change - he pulled out the bee elixirs.   Got all her furry half brothers, too.  ;D


Francisco: "I love the full moon."
Adrasteia: "Me too, Dad.  Me too.  You wanna duel?"
Francisco: "Sure!"

Artie's having fun with the elixir's there huh??

I like it when Addy and her dad have time together.

I like the gnome graveyard you have there. Mine is covered in snow right now.

I am  still trying to figure out who she is talking too. Someone is keeping her safe, I figured that much.

The zombie incident in the beginning is by far the funniest party event/conversation ever!

Adrasteia: "Hey that turned out really pretty."
...
Adrasteia: "I wasn't talking to you.  I was talking to the fireflies.  They say that green plumbobs are always a good sign."
...
Adrasteia: "What do you mean I should stop talking to the fireflies and get back to alchemy?  I was having fun."
...
Adrasteia: "You know the closer I get to my birthday.. the bossier you get."


Adrasteia: "Better?  Now can I go back to learning how to make people toads."
...!
Adrasteia: "What do you mean if you had known that's what I was doing you wouldn't have stopped me? Ugh.  Make up my mind already."
Airica: "Did I hear epic music?"
Adrasteia: "Yeah!  I maxed out alchemy."
Airica: "That's awesome sweetheart.  Is it going to be your supermax?"
Adrasteia: "I don't know.  But now I almost know every single recipe.  Even a few really fun ones.   Gilberto got me this book that teaches me that clown one."
Airica: -big thumbs up-  "You know who I think you should use that on right?"
Adrasteia: "Yeah I'll agree but it feels like we always pick on him."
Airica: "That's half the fun."


I couldn't resist showing this again
Artie: "I feel pretty.. oh so pretty.. "


Airica: "Oh hey.  Didn't we just buy that?  What are you doing to it?"
Adrasteia: "I'm using it to open a magic portal."
Airica: "This magic portal wouldn't happen to have access to a lamppost and some fawns right?"
Adrasteia: "Mom.  Where do you come up with this stuff?"
Airica: "From a book.  One day soon I think we're going to have to sit down and have a chat about some of the things I know."
Adrasteia: "Mooom.  We had woohoo education at school already."
Airica: -balks-  "That is not what I was talking about young lady!" -turns slightly redder-  "I think I'm going to go.. busy myself while I wait for your Dad to come back out so I can tell him about what you just said."
Adrasteia: "Yeah ok Mom."


Airica: "Whoo! This totally rocks!  No wonder Rabbit wore these everywhere."
Artie: "That's not the only reason."
Airica: "Go away."
Artie: "I'm going.  Keep your claws to yourself woman!"


Amon: "Gramps you ok?"
Artie: -sniffles and then just cries- "Oh my heart.  Vera has passed away and I just can't get over the pain."
Amon: "Oh brother." -pulls out his moodlet manager- "Gramps.  I'm doing this because you need it ok?  Just remember that while you think it hurts now.  The true pain is from losing your wife.. not your girlfriends." -zaps him-
Artie: -sniffs again- "Son.. I've lost three wives.  You're right it doesn't hurt as much but it still stings.  Ok let's get back to making more ice Yous for the ice army."


Airica & Adrasteia: -holding each other laughing and crying-
Aker: "This is not funny."


Three hours later..
Girls: -still laughing-
Aker: "Still not funny.  Will one of you just hurry up and use the cure elixir please? "
Adrasteia: -in between giggles- "The (heh) best (heh) part (heh) is I (heh) didn't (heh) even (heh) have to (heh) throw (heh) a single (heh) bottle." -laughs so hard she starts coughing-
Airica: -starts pounding her on the back, laughing harder-
Aker: -gets frustrated and stomps off-
Airica: "Oh c'mon dad.  It's not that bad."
Aker: -trips midstomp, growls and keeps moving away from them-
Airica & Addy: -start laughing all over again-


Airica: "So I see you guys like the new toy."
Ares: -dunks the ball, shatters the glass and lands on his... tailbone-
Apollo: "Ooo you broke it already."


Ares: "I am the champion!"
Apollo: "Then how come I'm winning?"
Ares: "I've been out of the game too long."
Apollo: "Uh huh.  Sure you have dad."


Adrasteia: "Thanks for coming over sweetie."
Gilberto: "How could I say no to my favorite girl?"
Adrasteia: "Aww.  Well you know it's my birthday in a couple of hours right?"
Gilberto: "Yes I know but I can't stay.  I'm going to have to go."
Adrasteia: -starts pouting- "You can't stay?"
Gilbertro: " 'fraid not.  I'll make it up to you tomorrow though."
Adrasteia: "Oh.. well only if you promise."
Gilberto: "I promise."


Adrasteia: "Dad! You made it in time for my birthday!"
Francisco: "Sorry.. can't talk.. too hungry."
Adrasteia: "Dad!  Your thin a stick again!"
Francisco: -finishes his food- "Still hungry too."
Adrasteia: -uses her moodlet manager on him-


Adrasteia: "Daddy.  How about we beef you up again huh?"
Francisco: "You sure it will work?"
Adrasteia: "Worked last time.  I don't see why not this time."


Francisco: "Oh yeah.  Check out these guns."
Adrasteia: "Daaad!"
Francisco: "Whaaaat?!"
Adrasteia: "Just one night I'd like to go without some cornball joke."
Francisco: "Wrong family for that hon."
Adrasteia: -sigh- "I know. C'mon let's go get us some cake."


Adrasteia: "C'mon guys.. Stop dancing the smustle and let's get celebrating.  I'm going to be able to leave the house whenever I want now!" -gets excited-
Airica: "Oh why did she have to grow up so fast."
Apollo/Angus: -in unison- "Just how it is - Time moves on."
Airica: "Not fair you guys use my words against me."


...
Adrasteia: "I feel it too!" -gains flirty trait- "I am one hot tamale."
...
Artie: "What in the world are you talking about?"
Adrasteia: "Cake.  Let's eat cake."


Adrasteia: "And with a wave of a magic wand that I can't see.   I get rid of my sleepiness and change my LTW. "
*!*epic music*!*
Adrasteia: "Whoo!  Now it's time for a makeover. "
Airica: "What did you change your lifetime wish to?"
Adrasteia:  "Bottomless Nectar Cellar.  I think I want to learn how to make nectar."
Artie: "That's fine by  me.  Never had a nectar maker before."
Airica: "Me either.  That should be a lot of fun, rosebud."
Ares: "It will be nice to have a constant supply of the stuff and know it's not surprising going to have plasma fruit in it."


She's so darned cute - Agnes hair doesn't even phase her!  One hot tamale indeed.

Adrasteia: "Hey this kind of feels funny."
...
Adrasteia: "What do you mean how can I tell?  My feet are in a barrell full of grapes!"


Artie: "Hey Check it out.  I finally got a new hairstyle for work."
Airica: "That's nice.  Back to my book."
Artie: "Woman.. you're no fun."
Airica: "I need another two opportunities!  I figure writing might trigger it."
Artie: "Fine just throw the dynasty requirements in my face."


Adrasteia: "Wingardium Leviosa!"
Carmen Crocker: "Addy! What are you doing?!"
Adrasteia: "What?  Just a little good luck charm.  No reason to get all jumpy."
Carmen: "Uh huh."


Adrasteia: "This has been a great party, Morris.  Here have a gift.." -tosses a bottle at his feet and laughs maniacally-
Morris: "Why.. why is everything just sooo sad?"
Adrasteia: "I can't tell.. we really need to get that stuff on your face so I can see your expressions better."
Morris: "What do you mean?"
Adrasteia: "I mean I have a bee elixir here and I want to see you scream.  Then I promise to use the friendship one again so you'll be ok with it."
Morris: "Huh?" -dog sideways head thing-


Morris: "Ahh!  Bees!  Bees!  How could you?!"
Adrasteia: "Morris.. I did just tell you it was going to happen."


Airica: "Hey!  I finally did it!"
Artie: "Did what?!"
Airica: "I managed to max out my career with a few days to spare."
Aker: "That's great sweetie."
Amon: "Knew you could do it."
Ares: "Haha.  I love it when you guys get distracted."
Airica: "Hmm.  Now what to do. Oh I think I'll write some more.  Tell all of Lunar Lakes about Artie and his children."
Artie: "Huh?"
Airica: "Oh nothing.."


Artie: "Wait is she doing what I think she's doing?"
Ares: "I don't now is she?"
Aker: "It could be.  You know how she is."
Amon: "She does it because you guys taught her how."
Apollo: "Can't you do anything about her?"
Aker: "If he" -points at Artie- "has no control over her, what makes you think I do?"


Adrasteia: "Transfiguro Bufo!"
Gilberto: "Ahh--Ribbit"
Adrasteia: "Hold on honey.. I have the elixir right here."


Gilberto: "Ribbit ribbit ribbit RIbbit!"
Adrasteia: "I know I know but you did say you didn't mind helping since we can't really do anything else until your birthday."
Gilberto: *croak* "Ribbit!"
Adrasteia: "See.. I have it right here." -tosses bottle at his feet-


Gilberto: "Ribb-- Ahh!"
Adrastiea: "How do you feel?"
Gilberto: "I no longer feel slimey."
Adrasteia: "It's not slime, it's mucus."
Gilberto: "Whatever.  I still feel like a bath though."
Adrasteia: "Are you mad?"
Gilberto: "No.  I said I would help.  I just don't think I could handle doing anymore ok?"
Adrasteia: "Ok."


So we had the coolest glitch in the Grim house.  Adrasteia woke up needing to go to City Hall.  No biggie.  We started the day working on getting her portrait done.  She was in mid portrait pose when it said she had to be at City Hall.   She got through the gate and promptly graduated right there on the Grim lot.    It was awesome.  Everyone was able to get right back to what they were doing.  ;D


Of course, one household member did end up going to City Hall.  And he was not happy when he realized no one else was coming.


Jamey Littlejohn had a graduation party that night.    Addy was playing love doctor and throwing love charms at everyone.   In fact she had just had the guy in the back fall in love with the white haired guy talking to Jamey.  Then Jamey talked to his new friend.  Soon a fight broke out and it was awesome.


Morris: "Fire! Fire! Fire!"
Adrasteia: "You didn't think I'd just play love doctor all night did you?"
Morris: "Fire! Fire! Fire!"
Adrasteia: "Oh just pee on it already."


Airica: "Huh.   Artie - you say you got this book from the mailbox?"
Artie: "Yeah why?"
Airica: "This and the two others are all named 'The Grim Family Ties'.   They were written under the care of another watcher."
Artie: "Wait.. what?  How did that happen.  I have never managed to bring anything back before."
Airica: "I know.  I've watched."
Artie: "Is it any good?"
Airica: "It's a shortened version of us.  Of course it's good."
Artie: "Who wrote it?"
Airica: "Miriellia Harkin under the care of Aya. "
Artie: "Don't now the names.  Maybe I should go look that up."
Airica: "I'd be faster at it if you'd just show me how you do it."
Artie: "Sorry.. Grim Family secret."
Angus: "Isn't she in the Grim family now?"
Artie: "Silence!"


Gilberto: "Hey sexy.  Guess how had a birthday."
Adrasteia: -gasp- "And you brought flowers!"
Gilberto: "Just for you, lovely lady."
Adrasteia: "Hey.   Want to come inside and have a look at my wardrobe?"
Gilberto: -confused- "your wardrobe?"
Adrasteia: -purrs and grabs him by the collar- "Yes my wardrobe."


In Unison: -shared laughter- "What are you wearing?!"


Airica: "So .. how's the new room?"
Adrasteia: "It's great.  I just need to upgrade all of these machines and then I can get started on actually stomping the grapes."
Airica: "Just remember we may have to have you learn gardening at one point if it doesn't work."
Adrasteia: "If it doesn't work, we'll just ignore the gardening and work on alchemy."
Airica: "Maybe work on alchemy anyway.  We could always use more clowns and cure elixirs."
Adrasteia: "That is so true."


Quick peek at the new room.  It gets additions at least four more times right after this picture is taken.  An artist is never satisfied.


Look - she actually wears her swimsuit..


Well that didn't last long.


Adrasteia: "Oh no loverboy.  When I hit you with that charm, you weren't supposed to try it on me."
Jamie: "Why not?"
Adrasteia: "Because you're married and I'm with someone.  Now move along before I find a way to turn you into a toad."
Jamie: "Later."


Adrasteia: "Hey Danny!"
Danny Gothier: "Ahh! What are you doing?!"
Adrasteia: "Helping a brother out.  Just a little love charm and I know you won't kiss me after because we're related."
Danny: "But why?!"
Adrasteia: "To learn higher magic of course."


Adrasteia: -casts the haunting curse on her new friend-
Beowulf Bigglesworth: "You really should be careful doing that you know."
New Friend of Addy's: "Oh my watcher! It's a talk dog!"
Adrasteia: "Who are you?"
Beowulf: "My grave has been put away for a long time but I know of your family.  Come we must chat."
Adrasteia: "Ok."


Adrasteia: "I'm not sure what to believe now.  It seems like so much drama."
...
Beowulf: "No!  Ignore that voice.  Listen to what I have just told you.  Trust the fireflies.  Finish your tasks.  Dodge your mother's questions."
Adrasteia: "You know she's not a very easy woman to dodge."
Beowulf: "I know but it's a lot easier now that she's not a visible voice in the sky."
Adrasteia: "Wait.. what?"
Beowulf: "You need to go home and turn Artie into a frog until he tells you everything."
Adrasteia: "Ok!"
Beowulf: "Maybe I shouldn't have said something."
Adrasteia: "Don't care.  Totally doing it."
Beowulf: "Don't forget what I said about the paper!"
Adrasteia: "I won't!"

I had said tales in my head but I blame autocorrect when it comes to the software that I use to type up my updates.

Oh boy! Artie's in trouble now.

As if there was any doubt to that any day of the week.

He's never been one to run.  But he does know how to hide ;D  I always catch him though.

It's such a tricky little challenge.
