*seagulls sound*
- Hello and welcome to... wait, is
the camera right? –
--------------------
*Short Explanation at this point: this was actually
supposed to be the intro for the last Chapter… to
announce, that the hiatus was finally over… okay,
said chapter IS already out(!), but no need to waste all
these staged pics…. More to that later…*

*shuffle* *shuffle*
- ... ehr, no, that's still not how it
should be... -
*shuffle*
- ....ah, now we're getting
somewhere...! -

- *ehem* Hello, and Welcome to...
*dramatic pause* finally, FINALLY,
another installation of the ‘Far away
from Eden'-Apocalegacy! -
*crickets chirping*
- ... mmokay, I guess, it's
understandable nobody remembers...
so anyway, I'm Little Nemo and
roughly a lifetime ago I started this
apocalegacy... yeah, I guess, I have
already won the prize for laziest
updater ever, so don't even bother to
try it, you n00bs, ha-ha... oh, okay, I
just went through a bit of problems
for the last few years... but everything
is finally in the green again… wait,
not green…fine, everything’s fine, so
lets start, okay?! -
'You suck, Dad!'

- Ha-ha, and that's where my loving (Sim)
- family comes into play, who have
supported me through the worst of
times... ladies and gentleman, may I
present, that's us: the Outsides*!
- I'm the one with the helmet, this shmexy
mink next to me is my wife Ciel... -
'...Charmer...'
- ...and these are Nicole (Redshirt), Mina
(Ponytail), Emily (Will Wright Shirt) and
Neill (Toddler), our kids... -
'Hey! Why are we only described as the
'Redshirt' or 'Ponytail' kid?! That's
degrading, Dad!'
- ... *sigh*, everybody is a critic... may I at
least start, before you tear me a new
one...? -
- Anyway, before my apocalegacy went on
hiatus, the Eden family faced their biggest
threat ever: Bethoria! Originally known as
second gen spare Bethany Eden, then being
abducted and brainwashed by her evil
grandmother Uranium created by
ephemeraltoast, she turned evil and brought
chaos over the neighborhood... it was so
devastating, that I, the creator himself,
decided to... well, end her, just to realize,
that she would end me(!), if I don't behave...!
- This is also the reason, why (aside from
RL....) we have spent the last few years
searching for a safe place from Bethoria.... -
----
*last seen in Episode 9.3. – Untold stories – that
the Outsides moved was indicated in Episode
9.3a – a Tribute to Mary Sue...

- ... and now we finally found it:
family, meet our new home... -

- Elsewhere! This nice place, made by
Plasticbox at MTS.com, is a cozy little
remote village, built on a rocky shore,
with lots of nice houses... -

- ... and this, family, is our new home:
4 Panorama Bay! Isn't it great? -
'Oh, it is really a nice house... much
better than all the hideouts and little
bunkers we spent the last years over...
but... do you think it is safe?'
- Oh don't worry, honey, this time, I
made sure, that we'll be safe from any
evil entities and stuff...! -
'... you got to be kidding us, right,
Dad?'

- ... What? -
'Oh come on, Dad, every time we
moved in the last 20 years...'
'... 11, sis...'
'... 11 years, it was always 'we'll be safe
here!' - and then we suddenly have to
pack and move again!'
'She's right Daddy, and then we
always have to go into the Simbin and
lose our friends, and the Simbin stinks
and all that sucks...' *whine*
'...So what's so special about this hood,
than the last 30...!'
'... 27, sis...'
'...I don't care, Em! In fact, the only
reason, why we moved here, is...'

'... this Diver statue, right?!'
- ... ehr....*ehem* Mina, do you really
believe, your old Dad would risk all
your lives just because...? -
'... so I AM right, right?!'

- Nononononono... okay, the statue is
a nice bonus, but that's not the main
reason! In fact, what I did over the last
years, was to make this the safest
place on earth, trust me with that! -
'What's supposed to be safe here? Are
the Seagulls secret ninjas, or what?'
- ... ehr, no... but that's actually a good
idea, why haven't I thought of that? -
'Because you suck, Dad!'
- ... so you really think I suck Mina? -
'Yes!'
- Well, then... if I suck, then why
would I prepare for you... *dun* *dun*
*dun*...? -

- ... your own rooms!!! Remember, you
always wanted your own rooms,
right? Well at least you wanted them
in Episode 8.3...
*cough*anddon'tellmeyouwantponies
now*cough*... Anyway, now there are
rooms for all of you; they also have
the same size and equipment, so there
is no need for you to fight over... -

- ... huh? Where did they go? -
'I think, the second you said 'own
rooms' they were already running,
Dad...'

'... oh well, I think I'll follow them...
someone has to keep an eye on them
both...'
- ... Emily, sometimes I wish you
would act less adult… well over-adult
actually…. and more like your
sisters...sometimes.... -
' *Sigh* '
- Ciel, honey, what's the matter? I
thought you liked the house? -
'... Nemo, it's not the house... Mina is
right, you know, all this moving
around... our children need a place to
grow up without living in fear of...
you know who I mean....'

- Aww, Ciel... look, I've been a fool,
this is all my fault, I never wanted you
and the kids to get involved into this...
-
'... you didn't intend to, I know....'
- ... nonono, Betho... ‘she' was my idea,
so it is my fault and therefore also my
responsibility to fix all this... -

- ... and trust me, this time I really
have thought of everything! No more
hideouts with little to no sanitation,
no fortified bunkers with no playing
options for children - Elsewhere will
be our safe haven in the storm! -
'Wawawa-nana!'
- Correct, Neill, if this ene-meany-
greeny woman ever shows her
face here, she'll wish she never
existed! –
'... *sigh*, okay, Mr. Outside, I'll
believe you...'
- Great! Sooo... wanna visit the
bedroom, and... hehe..? -
'...you're a very dirty man, Mr.
Outside..!'

'... by the way, are there any other
neighbors here yet?'
- I've already made plans for whom to
move in. -
'Anyone, we know?'
- Yes and no, we ran into them in the
other hoods, but it is unlikely they
remember us... we'll probably have to
befriend them, again... -
'will there be clubs too? I'd really like
to go out one time again and...'

*KAPOW* *WHAM* *BAM*
- What the...? -
*MINE*MINE*MINE* *NO*MINE*
'Oh no... GIRLS!'
- Emily, what's going...? -
'Well, according to the statements, my
sisters are apparently still not
completely satisfied with the room
situation...'

BANG*
'HAH! I win!'
'Ufff... no fair, I just slipped...!'
'Like I care! Or do you want another
beating?'
‘Owie... no...' *snif*

'Aaand the winner leaves the arena,
once again undefeated...'
'MINA OUTSIDE! How dare you fight
with your sister? Go to your room!'
'With pleasure, Mom....'
'Waaaah... Daaadddyyyy...'
'Oh Nicole... what's going on...?'
*snif* 'I... I wanted the room...'
- Room? Look, I said, all the rooms
have the same size... -
'... to the seaaaaaside!' *cry*
'Sis, don't cry - I let you decide, which
of the two remaining ones you want,
how does that sound?'
'...b... but none of them is to....
waaaah!'

- and so, the battle of the rooms ended
with Mina having the one to the
seaside... -
'Was there ever any doubt who'd
win?!'

- and Nicole one of the other rooms...
*sigh* -
'This room stinks! I can even see the
local school from it!'
- Nicole, look at it that way: now you
can always see your school friends
and will never be too late for school...
-
'How is that supposed to be good?!'
- oh, man.... -

-... ehr, and Emily also got her room...
-
'... and a violin! Thank you, Dad!'
'...do you think, that was a good idea,
Nemo? Emily's room is right across
ours... you know, how much she can
get into skilling...'
'Ciel, at the point, we go to bed, Em's
so good, she'll play us to sleep with
her masterful skills...'
'Well, that's true, but I guess,
somebody else will keep us awake... '

'... Because Neill will probably wake
us up...'
- Didn't I tell you? Neill of course gets
his own room too! And we will finally
get some sleep! -
'... but what if he wakes up in the
night and cries for us and we aren't
there?! I couldn't find any sleep if I
don't know...!'
- But... I... you...! Look, Neills ‘room’ is
basically the converted floor across
our bedroom, we leave the door open
and everything is fine, okay?! –
' *Sigh* Mr. Outside… I don’t know if
I should kiss you, or …. ‘
- I’ll take the Kiss – and then a bit
more, hehe.. –
*stomach grumbl*
- …. ehr… though to be honest,
right now I could go for …. –

- … a grilled cheese sandwich…
mmh… -
‚Good idea! Go and make us
sandwiches, man…‘
-… Why do I get the feeling, this is
supposed to be a joke about gender
roles…? Oh well…-

*and so we had our first family meal at
our new home…*
‚Munch, Munch, Munch… mhm,
good…can I have seconds, Dad?‘
‚Nope! Sorry Sis, I got the last one…!‘
‚…*Snif*… MOM!‘
‚Mina Outside! Stop teasing your
older sister !....‘
‚Mooo-hom… !...not helping!‘
‚If I might add, while the nutritional
value of meals in the Sims 2 is not
strictly tied to real life, we should
really consider raising our cooking
skills for a more balanced diet…
otherwise a switch to a grilled cheese
aspiration might be in order… this is
grilled cheese family dinner n° 132
already…‘
‚Wait, you even counted the number
of meals? NEEEEERD…!‘
‚MINA!‘
-… Okay, dinner‘s finished,
everybody go to your room! Unless
you want to help me clean up… -
*everybody already disappeared*
-… yeah, thought so….-

*… and while being left with the
cleaning duty, everybody else settled
into our new home…. Mina
immediately turned on the stereo, as
she apparently is still following her
lifetime want as a professional party
guest, where dancing is essential...
And yes, she gets into fights with her
sister often, but she‘s a good person,
pretty sure, they‘ll get along in the
future….*
-----
‚Okay, stereo‘s on, nobody suspects
anything, so I can finally do my Yoga
lessons… and raise my body skill, as
any good professional party guest
needs…. And that way, I can settle
any conflict with my sister in the
future as well… hm….perhaps next
time, I can take over her room too
and she has to move to the couch….!‘

*… of course, it wouldn‘t hurt, if
Nicole might be a bit more self-
dependent … I mean, losing against
her little sister and then come crying
to us every time she gets beat up by
her is pretty… oh nevermind, she‘s a
smart girl too, she‘ll find her way…*
----
‚LALALALALALA…!‘
*Loud Sounds of Xylophone randomly
smacked by toddler*
‚Oww, my ears… *ehrm*…
wonderful, Neil! You‘re my favorite
little brother – and my only one… and
you can hit that xylophone really
hard… Hey, how about the next time
my eeny-meeny little sis and me get
into a fight, you could be my knight in
shining armour and beat…?‘
‚Aw-na-wa-ma-*burp*‘
‚WHAT? No – I‘m not scared of her!
I… well, she is my little sister, I can‘t
hurt my younger siblings, but you…?‘
‚Wawa!‘
‚… *Snif* Moooom – Neill is mean to
me…!‘
-----
*….yep, totally find her way… *

*… of course, I actually do not want
her to be too smart… at least not until
she‘s older. It‘s difficult enough living
with another genius…*
---
‚… aha… so according to this book,
apparently many sim players in order
to reduce lag of their game often
switch off the visibility of deco and
other lots in lot mode to make the
game run faster – which creates
problems every time they just want to
take an in-game picture and then
realize, that they forgot to switch
visibility on again, which only leaves
them with the choice to retake the
picture – almost never happens, Sim
players are a lazy bunch - completely
ignore it or actually try to implement
it into the story as some sort of
Fourth-wall-experience – the last
choice is of course only chosen by the
truly dimwitted players….‘
-----
*…see?...*

*… thankfully I‘m not alone if it
comes to raising these little rascals…
couldn‘t think of a better partner than
Ciel… *sigh* and then I dragged her
into the mess of this evil villainess…
my poor Ciel, she‘s such a delicate
flower…*
----
‚HNG! TAKE THIS! AND THIS! AND
THIS! Threatening my family?! Over
your dead body… bodies, I don‘t care
how many other ‚You‘s‘ there are…
and THIS! And THAT!...‘
*punching bag: heeeeeelp meee…*

*… as for me… well, I‘m glad, we
were able to deal with the situation so
far… of course, what helped was the
hiatus … I put everything on hold!…
Yep, that‘s the reason actually why
Bethoria couldn‘t hurt us so far in the
first place… of course, as long as she‘s
there, there‘s no hope for the other
people in said neighborhood… or the
hoods she conquered… yes, it‘s all
stuck in Limbo for now…. Of course, I
could just pull the plug, erase the
hood and let everyone there die…..
… but hey, she already threatened me
in my dreams, who is to say, she‘d
threaten me here too even if I delete
FafE?!
….No, I have to do that… I have to
resolve this, one way or the other…. *
‚…Oh, wishing star… well, that‘s at
least one thing in the pic that has to do
with this text here…‘

*… for me and my family… and my
kinda extended family over in FafE…*

- … I have to do this…. !–
‚DOJDAWA!‘
-… oh come on, Neill, what am I
supposed to write instead? This is
heavy stuff…!‘
‚WAWAWAWA!‘
-…*snif* Cieeel! Neill is mean to me
toooo…!‘

*one hugging-the-insecure-husband-
session later….*
‚*CHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRR
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR….*‘
- … separate bedrooms might have
been a good idea… -

‚*CHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRR
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR….*‘
-… oh well, as long as she‘s asleep,
might as well start…-

-… off to my secret, fortified
hideout…-
*creak*

-… annnd – here we are… might need
a little work though to be a truly
fortified…mmokay, I can do this…
and yes, I promised Ciel not to do
anything stupid, but we need to
resolve this Psycho once and for all…
anyway, my package should arrive
here any minute…. -

*Ding…* Door bell shut off*
‚Uhm… hello? I‘m Mr. Humble, and
I‘ve come to…‘
- *PSSSSSST!* Quiet! Leave the
computer outside and go…there is
a reason, why I boolpropped you
to only arrive now and not this
morning… no need to have my
family to worry…-
‚… bring you a great…‘
*Boolpropped away*

*later…*
-…. Annnd here we go… everything‘s
set up, special protected room and
specifically superprotected-modified
new computer is installed and batbox
is here to save the day if necessary….
Yeah, call me paranoid, but I‘m not
restarting this hood if I‘m not
prepared for everything… actually
should have brought coffee…
nevermind…. Here we go….-
*Starts game…*
…heHeheehrrrg…
*ANTI-BETHORIA DEFENSE

COMPUTER – REMOVED*
-… wouldn‘t I‘ve known it… and
now… – let‘s do this!...-
--------------------------------
*Note: as being said, this chapter was supposed to be
the intro for the last chapter…. So basically at this
point, you would have read chapter 9.3999a…. *

-… though to be on the safe side, lets not
start with the main hood … I‘m going to
open the Bluewater village Business
district instead…
*loads Bluewater village*
**frizzle* *image distortions**
- …hm, bit jittery, but seems to be
working… any warnings on
Bethoria…?...-
*ANTI-BETHORIA DEFENSE

THREATS IN THIS BUSINESS
DISTRICT*
-… hm, strange…where is she? I mean,
‚horray, no threat‘, but this actually
unnerves me more than… never mind…
well, lets load the Priso… I mean, the
Simself lair…
*SimSim Correctional facility a.ka. Simself
Lair loading*

-… okay, here we are… hm,
everythings quiet… well, that‘s kinda
expected, Bethoria killed everyone
after all*…-
-----------------
*Note: for everyone who read chapter
9.3.999A… yeah, everyone was alive and
well at the end of that chapter, but… oh
well, you‘ll see…

-… wait… where are the corpses…?
Actually, where is anyone?? Did they
already decompose? Did she eat
them? *Brrr* Unbelievable, that this is
a feasible possibilit… wait, there‘s
someone over there, behind the
windo… bars, prison bars, yeah…! –
*moves camera*

- dum-dum-de-dum… *whistles* -
*typing*
- …hey, that‘s me! I mean, other me – I
mean doppelganger… dangit, I
already sound as crazy as that green
monster… -

-…and then 28th Great-Grandaughter-1
aka Helen, hit by Servo I-1‘s spell,
transforms into… yes, perfect! Now
only a few more weeks of CC
Plantsim search, then…-

-… uhm, Hello? Nemo, can you hear
me? It‘s me, Nemo…!...-

- EEKS! WHO… WHAT?....who is
there? *scared* -

- Hey! Chillax, Bro! It‘s just me! Nemo!
Sorry, it took so long to get back to
you….Good news: me and Ciel and
the kids finally found a safe spot!
Annd – I now have gathered all the
means to fight Bethoria! So lets tear
this Bi… I mean lets tear bethoria a
new…! -

- WOH! HEY! STOP! OUT TIME!
Are you nuts??! You‘ve been gone
for… what?... 11 years! ELEVEN
YEARS!! And now you have the
nerve to show up and…??! –
- Hey, I had to make sure my… our
family was safe! And I had to get
all the stuff together for the fight
and…!
- ELEVEN YEARS! And by the way,
we resolved Bethoria four years
ago!!–
- WHA…? –
- Under what rock did you hide,
man?? At the this point, Sims 3 is
already Sim history and Sims 4 has
like 50 addons already…and none
of them were destroyed by a green
monster or so…! Did you get at
least a new Laptop to finally play
them properly??? –
- Uhm… -

- Oh for….What have I done to
deserve this? 11 years hiatus, so
this jerk can be with my family
while I…!-
- H..HEY! I didn‘t…. Listen, if a
doppelganger merges back, he has
lived this ‚other‘ life just as he did
his ‚own‘ and vice versa, so no
need to feel jealous and… -
- Oh, spare me the explain-o-crap, I
can do that myself…but a little bit
of update in between might have
been nice… -
- Listen, I kept everyone on aging
off, so you didn‘t miss any
birthdays or…-
- … so we still need to change Neills
diapers? In lorinsv60‘s BaCC, he‘s
already past Uni and…! –
- Okay, that‘s it! What‘s your beef?!
And how did you beat Bethoria
and why is everyone gone and..?-

- You know what??! HERE!! –
*sends Links*
- First one‘s the Link to the finishing
chapter of the Bethoria arc! FOUR
friggin years ago!! Also – with you
hiding, the neighborhood being on
hiatus, nothing happening, the
Simselves… left! What‘s the point
of staying here?! No amount of
bubble blowers can fight that!! Oh,
and also check out my ‚attempt‘ at
an Build a Metropolis Challenge
(BAMC) if you‘re at it, to see what
I(!) did while you…!!! -
- *Sends more Links* -
- Rrrgh… Now if you excuse me, I
need to get high on bubbles to cool
myself off…! –
- *stomps off*
- … this is not going to be awkward
in the slightest when… if we ever
merge back….-

* One ! Year ! Later…! *
----------------------------------------
-… Ahhh, that was relaxing and… well
bubbly… and I guess I got the anger
finally out my syst…. WOAH! Dude, you
okay???-
-…Soo much to read, soo…Instant City…
and Anais… and Bethoria…how… how
long have I been down here?? -
- …A year… according to the
description… honestly man, you look
like…!–
- Not helping, man…!... But I guess, an
apology is in order for… abandoning
you…. By the way, which one of the
two Nemos…? –
- I‘m the one who stayed at the Lair,
actually merging with the one who
would have become a ghost… ‚real‘
one is still hiding, ask Agent
Snuggles… nuff said? -
- Okay, okay, TMI… this whole thing
has already gone waaaay too
meta…..-
-----------------------------------
*Okay, so basically this is how I felt during all the Years trying to
figure out if I should ever continue with Far away from Eden…
Thanks again to Ani-Mei finally helping to kick me through the
writers block… temporarily…now I could have included this
Pep Talk here too(!) into another pic-heavy subplot…. buuut lets
try and not get back to old habits too quickly…not that I can
avoid it *mind spinning already again from remembering teh
subplots supposed to occur afterwards…*

-… agreed! Plus it‘s been a year since I
updated my BaMC, so apology
accepted if only for the fact that I need
to finally get the I-1 household
done…-
-…and the apocalypse challenge?...-
- Actually, already did more
chapters…-
*sends links*
- Oh nooo….-
- Hey, be grateful *I* was at least
prolific there too, even if not as
much as… but honestly – what did
you do?? And you DID move
there because of the statue…! –
-….-
-… good choice, bro, good choice…-

-…. Thanks… -
‚Okay, now that ‚we‘ are up to date,
lets update the fictional crowd
supposingly reading this crap
too…now, where were we last time
with the ‚normal‘ apocalypse
anyway…?... Oh, right….-

‚Dear Family,
If you read this, I‘m already gone…
- And if you start crying now, I‘m
gonna punch you from the grave! I
am an elder, okay?! I‘m on my last
day – and I‘m permaplat, best way to
get out of this ridiculous challenge…
Now, admittedly, I might not have
reached everything in my life, like finding
out who killed my brother… or my sisters
husband… or maximizing all my skills
and badges… or getting kids or becoming
rich or having lots of friends…
…Dangit, now I‘m really
reconsidering….
- Oh screw it, I guess I find out the
murderer in the afterlife anyway, so that‘s
two down, and the rest… hey, I‘m a Sim,
there‘s probably some way to remove this
death tag… plus skilling is overrated…‘

‚…though I am going to miss my
gardening over at Twikki Island…‘

‚… even got a Gold Gardening out of it…‘

‚… and some mouthwatering fruits as
well…‘

‚… soooo now that I think of it - why the
heck didn‘t I just kinda cheat my way to
max skills…?... I mean, I had oranges,
lemons, eggplants too… I could have
gotten all those skils just by making lots of
juice* and…?‘
--------------------
*Eggplant Juice (2 Eggplants) = 1 Skill Point
Orangeade (4 oranges, 2 Lemons) = Badge points

‚…okay… probably shouldn‘t have
laughed at my nephew for catching a
lifetime of oversized right boots… or
secure the juice maker better so the little
brat couldn‘t swoop the contents…not
sure if I should be angry with or proud of
him for being so cunning….yes, Cecile,
I‘m writing this primarily for you, you
little…!‘

‚…anyway, while the boot juice knocked
me out for some time, the family
apparently enjoyed a nice little session at
our vacation homes newest achievement, a
small pond… which seems to be somehow
connected to the open sea… how else can
you explain all the fish… probably some
underwater tunnel suddenly opening up
or so…‘

‚… we actually named it ‚Cecile‘s Pond‘,
because of course he had discovered it…
again, writing to you, kid…. And then
the pond probably took some sort of
voodoo revenge on him for being
discovered, that‘s why for the entirety of
the vacation he only fished boots… ‘

‚…while the rest of the family was much
luckier…‘

‚...as for me, the boot accident didn‘t
really entice me to do some fishing
myself… besides, during the night, I
transformed into a werewolf again, and
wolfs are more into trees than fishes,
strolling around…‘

‚…though that didn‘t mean, that I
suddenly decided to give in to my primal
senses, I am a…Robot-Dryad-Werewolf-
Sim… but a Sim nonetheless, and a
Science Sim of course… so on the last
days of our vacation I finally caught that
Wannabe-Ghost-Pirate… yeah well, I
wanted to know a bit about the afterlife
from him, considering he‘s the most
talkative of ghosts you can meet…
unfortunately, except for the shanty, most
he told me was garbage, like recently
having a run-in with a non-pirate –
because he didn‘t have a hat (…) – and his
‚wooden‘ mate… and here I thought,
senility is something you experience
before your death, not after…‘

‚… but back to my original comment: I
am going to miss Twikki… too bad you
can only get here by vacation, and
vacation time is limited… so we had to
return at some point… back to the
vampocalypse… so yeah, I am pretty sure
everyone shared my view on this matter…
not that we have a choice, we need to get
back to clean up the mess…‘

‚…so in retrospect…‘
‚Antoine Eden! Are you working on
your eulogy again?! I told you to stop
that! You‘re not that old!‘
‚Your mother is right, son… look, I
respect your… curiosity *shudder*… to
see what happens if you die of old age
in platinum… but please, don‘t ruin
this vacation on the last mile with
*this*!‘
‚Okay, okay! Jeez – I‘m the one dying
here, you should think I‘d get some
consolation for that, not literary
criticism…‘
‚Well excuse me for listening to losing
another child!‘
‚*Sigh*… look Mom, from a technical
viewpoint, I turn into a ghost…
Alexandré and Ben are spooking
around our place for years
now…believe me, it took some time
for me too, to figure out that the
whole ‚Oh he‘s dead, sooo sad…‘ spiel is
kinda stupid, if you know what‘s in
store for you…!‘

‚…by the way, aren‘t we forgetting
something…?‘
‚YEEES! YEEEES! LOOK AT ME!
LOOK AT ME! I GOT ONE!!!‘
‚… oh great, now I have to rework the
‚voodoo pond revenge‘ part again…‘
‚Cecile Maurice Eden! You come here
this Instant (City)*! We need to get
home… annnd out of the sun, being
vampires and stuff...‘
‚Well… we could have gone home
ealier, dear…‘
‚And miss out on our remaining
vacation time? Besides, Amaryllis and
Nicolai have already cramped
themselves into the taxi‘s trunk, and
there aren‘t any airholes there… I
mean, vampire or not, that can‘t be
healthy…‘

*Shameless self-advertising by the Instant BaMC

‚… and so, with a final view to our
vacation home… especially final for some
people…‘
‚ANTOINE!‘

‚… welcomed by those we left behind…‘
‚Awww, hello…ehrrm… what was
the name of our pet again? No
seriously, I forgot, it feels like years…‘
*HISSSSS… MEOWW!*
‚OWWW ! *Hnnf*… okay, probably
deserved that… right, Blender, wasn‘t
it? Chased away a stray dog two times
her size…‘
‚… yes it was my stray pet, Blender,
whom I adopted to have a friend for our
other cat, Barry, third-generation heir of
our pet dynasty… unfortunately, so far
there weren‘t any kittens in sight between
these two, albeit they tried…. Might have
something to do with the household being
too full… thankfully, there will be a spot
freed up in the future and…‘
‚OKAY, THAT‘S IT! GIVE ME THIS
STUPID §$%&§…! *grabs eulogy*
‚MOM! NO!‘ *ensuing brawl*

‚Uhmmm… Hi, Family! Welcome
back…. And should I even ask why
Grandma and Uncle Tony are
fighting?‘

*entangles from fight*
‚Awww, Bea… I missed you, dear!‘
*Hugs*
‚I missed you all too, Grandma –
wished I could have come with you
but… you know, babies and not being
able to go on vacation and stuff…‘
‚Yeah, I hope you‘re alright? ‚General‘
Don and his zombies taking good care
of you…?‘
‚GRANDM… oh, you mean,
protecting me and Celia and…?...
Ehrm, yeah, yes… yes, they did…!...
Now… where‘s my mom? …Annnd
my husband, not to forget?‘
‚Oh, right…. Jerry, be a dear and open
the trunk?‘
‚GRANDMA!‘
‚Well, you can‘t call two cabs to go
home, can you? No seriously, you
can‘t in this game….!‘

‚… and whom do we have here?
Awww, it‘s my little
Greatgranddaughter Celia! Missed
Greatgranny? Dudududu… who‘s my
little girl, huh? Huh?‘

‚Dudududu… who‘s my little girl,
huh? Huh?‘
*Smoosh* *Tickle*
‚*Giggle* Nick! Stop that! What‘s
gotten into you?‘
‚What? Can‘t a husband return from a
looong vacation and be happy to see
his wife again and then…hehe?‘
‚Well, technically, we‘re still only
engaged, because we want a real
wedding and wedding arches are still
restricted by Natural science and….‘
‚Shush! Less Talky, more Smoochy…‘

*later*
-----------------------------------------------
‚…Wow…. That was… wow!‘
‚Hehehe… not bad for a ‚Loki Beaker
lookalike‘, right?‘
‚Oh, shush you…!...and I never
thought, you were…. But calling me
‚Circe‘ was kinda… kinky…‘
‚… well, I wanted to say ‚Chloe‘ first
but… ehrm… anyway… there… is…
something I wanted to tell you, dear…
or rather ask…?‘
‚…oh?‘
‚Well… you see, I might have… made
some bad choices in the past… you
might say even… eeevil ones… and
truth to be told, I‘m not sure if it‘s a
good time to tell you that now
after…ehrm…. but during this
vacation… I realized, I missed
you…very , very much…‘

‚… so what I would like to ask you
now… if I… did something bad…
really bad… could you forgive me?‘
‚Uhmmm… that‘s kind of a sudden
shift here, Nick… I mean, one Instant
(City)* we‘re cuddling on the bed and
the next…and I can‘t really tell you if I
could forgive you if I don‘t really
know what you… EEEEEEEKS!!!‘
*Sudden Ghost Appearance*
‚AAAAKH! UNCLE ALEX! GET
OUT! YOU‘RE SUPPOSED TO BE
THE NICE GUY, EVEN AS A
GHOST!‘
*runs off*
‚UGGH… *Whisper* You needed to ruin
that, did you?! Just because I…. Look, I‘m
sorry, okay? Uranium cut contact with me,
your niece‘s the mother of my children, I
had a relaxing vacation… and you‘re the
nice guy, remember – give me a second
chance…**‘
*Ghost Thoughts: Yay, Beeeed…!*

*Another Shameless self-advertising by the Instant BaMC

** To see what Nick talked about, read Chapter 6.3 of Far
away from Eden…

Elsewhere… no, not the hood by
Plasticbox, I meant the location of the
vacation of the Uni household in Twikki
Island:
*Scrub* *Scrub* *scrub*
‚*Whew*… wow, that is a lot of
grease… why were we so eager again
to eat real food instead of just
continue to live on dates and
outings…?‘
‚Beth?! How far are you? And where‘s
your brother?!‘
‚Almost done, Uncle June *mumble*
slavedriver *mumble*‘
‚WHAT?!‘
‚Uhmmm... Ehrrm, I said: Brian is
outside; He said he is taking care the
local plantlife…I think…?‘
‚WHAT?!‘

‚Ah… reaaally clever – ‚plantlife‘…
because she wears a Haku Lei…. This
is so stupid…‘
‚…a me kekahi manawa ke hoike nei
kaʻana like 'ana i ka nui hau
kalima…!‘
‚Nephew! Stop pretending like you
can speak Hawaiian, everybody can
see you‘re using an online translator…
and clear away all the rubble you left
on the lawn, I almost fell into the hole
you dug…! Seriously, you too are
incorrigable, the cab is almost there
and all you do is fooling around…
now get your trunks and come, we
need to reverse an apocalypse as well
as bring some knowledge of
pseudohawaiian culture back to the
hood…‘
‚*Sigh*, yes uncle… *mumble*
spoilsport *mumble*‘
‚WHAT?!‘

‚*Mumble* ungrateful profligates
*mumble*…‘
‚WHAT?!‘
‚I said ‚Ungrateful Profligates‘!‘
‚…you don‘t have to say it out loud…‘
‚Whatever…. Okay, where is your
sister again now?!‘
‚Uhmm… she said she is taking care
of the local plantlife…‘
‚WHA… OH for…!‘

‚ BETH! Stop Making Out with
whomever you are with this Instant
(City)*!‘
‚WHAT?!‘
‚You heard me!‘
‚But I need to prepare the soil for the
seedlings…!‘
‚GAH! I don‘t want to know whether
you‘re really just gardening or…
anyway, the cab is there, we won‘t be
able to get back here anyway for some
time…!‘
-------------------------
*And the Shameless self-advertising by the Instant BaMC
marketing department continues…*

- One uneventful return home later…-
‚…Aaah, home sweet home…
zombies, vampires, evil aliens… not to
forget giant armies of Eol‘s we are not
allowed to drink but instead clutter
up our backyard… followed by giant
armies of rose bouquets brought ALL
the way from Twikki Island because
you two can‘t keep it in your pants
even during vacation…!‘

‚*Sigh*… if somebody needs me, I‘m
off to do something productive with
my life…‘
‚… getting a Gold Robot Badge if we
can‘t make Robots anyway?‘
‚…shut up…‘

‚… also Uncle, I just graduated 4.0 –
my thesis on the different Twikki
Island Ice Cream sorts was a smash!‘
‚…‘
*Chews through screwdriver in envy…*

‚…Are we there yet?!‘
‚*Sigh*… yes. Yes we are there…
finally! Why did I let you convince me
to come for Brian‘s graduation party?
We could have just stayed at home
like the others and prepare the
welcome home party….‘
‚Because I wanna see the university!
Uncle Tony says that you can have
lots of cool adventures here, like
playing pool and dancing and…‘
‚That‘s what you call adventures?‘
‚It‘s better than sitting around reading
books while you guys raise our
motives via outings, mom…!‘
‚…Good point… still I think your
uncle might have exaggereated a bit
after the boot juice accident and…‘

‚HOOOOOOWL…Hello Sis! Welcome
to my hot graduation party!‘
‚Hello Brian… glad I could make it…
Mom, Nick and all the others say
Congratulations to you passing with
honors … like me….‘
‚Hehehe… didn‘t think I had it in me,
right…?‘
‚Well, I DO know, that you are on
pretty good terms with the female
professors….‘
‚Ehrm… so where‘s Uncle Tony? I
invited him on the phone this
Tuesday (Phone restriction) to come
too …‘
‚*Sigh*… you do know, that Uncle
Antoine is getting older… it‘s not easy
to make it all the way up to La Fiesta
tech and…‘
‚*HUFF*… *HUFF*… Man, that was
wild ride…didn‘t think I‘m still in
such good shape…!‘

‚HEY – UNCLE! WOLF-BRO!‘
‚This is a stupid acknowledgement of
me being a werewolf… but I guess, I‘d
have to put up with that for a few
more days…‘
‚Awww, Uncle… don‘t say that…
Look, I‘ve got a present for you!‘
‚Please don‘t tell me, that this is some
kind of subplot worming ist way into
the story just to drag this out a few
more pages…‘
‚No – look, Uncle, I know you are…
about to see the radishes from below
or whatever… so before I can never
say again ‚It‘s good that you are there‘
I‘d rather do this…!‘
‚…. *snif*… that‘s actually quite
heartwarming…‘
‚Awww… I knew you‘d like it, Wolf-
Bro!‘ *Wolf-Bro Hug*
‚*Unnf* …and now we‘re back to
being just silly… just graduate
already!‘

‚…Woaah!‘
‚Hmm… congratulations… seems like
you lucked out in the clothing
department, most Sims graduate in a
tanga or polka-dots….‘

‚Congrats, nephew… now with you
out of the house, things will most
likely be less chaotic… admittedly
that‘s my fault, I was too lenient on
you two… but things will change
drastically from now on, right, niece?‘

*paralyzed from fear in an instant (city)*

*yes, it doesn‘t make any sense, but another shameless
self-advertisment etc. etc.

‚…Okay, I have no idea what you are
singing, Brian, but it sounds nice…
what is it?‘
‚he said – in a terrible Hawaiian - : If
you wanna hula dance with me,
Then I could do anything
'Cause you and me add up perfectly….’
‘… okay, now I’m really jealous of you
two… next time I’m going on the
vacation too…’
‘Well, my seat in the cab will be free
then…’
‘Okay – way to ruin the mood, Wolf-
Bro…’
‘I am so gonna haunt you from the
grave…

‚That‘s not pool billiard, that‘s golf…!‘
‚… Touchdown!‘
‚That‘s football…‘
‚…checkmate?‘
‚Wrong Game again… you suck at
this, bro…‘
‚At games? Never…!‘

‚…Because I‘m gonna get a job in the
gamer career and show you noobs…!‘
‚Wow… that was the silliest angle
ever used in this Challenge to explain
why somebody would get a job in the
gamer career…‘
‚*Psssst* - stop breaking the fourth
wall, Sis…!‘
‚… and why is it called the fourth wall
in a two-dimensional-displayed story?
Shouldn‘t it be the third wall?‘
‚You do realize, if we continue
bickering like this, we end up just as
bland as these one-dimensional
personality-devoid Sims in Insta….
NOPE, not going to say it – I refuse to
do this shameless advertising….!‘*

*Shameless Selfadvertising Department: ‚Awwwww….‘ 

‚… and so, Brian finally found his
calling… overloading servers and
restoring the telephone lines or
whatever…‘

‚… driving of into the sunset together
with his sister who still has to be in the
music career to keep off the winter…the
last time I ever saw these two…‘

‚… so in retrospect…‘
‚ANTOINE EDEN...‘
‚FOR THE LAST TIME: LET ME
WRITE MY…!...oops…. Ehrmm, Hi
Grim… sorry, thought that was Mom
again…‘
‚… OKAY…. YOU KNOW, I‘D LOVE
TO SAY: TAKE YOUR TIME, I CAN

ACTUALLY, I CAN‘T….!‘
‚… Never mind… nobody would have
listened to the eulogy anyway…

‚… so I guess, this is it…?‘
‚YEP…. OR AS THEY SAY: ʻae !‘
‚Hm… so you speak Hawaiian too?‘
‚MARGINALLY… I GOT MY
DIPLOMA IN ADVANCED
REAPING THERE, BUT
ADMITTEDLY IT‘S MORE OF AN
HONORARY DEGREE, I AM
APPARENTLY THE BEST IN MY

‚Well, I never undertook surfing, but I
liked Twikki Island….‘
‚THIS CHEAP KNOCK-OFF?
BELIEVE ME, IT‘S NOTHING
COMPARED TO THE REAL DEAL…‘
‚Well… guess I won‘t get to see the
real deal anymore…‘

‚…TELL YOU WHAT? HOW ABOUT
WE MAKE A QUICK DETOUR
THERE BEFORE YOU SEE THE BIG
‚AFTER‘? HERE, HAVE SOME ‚MAI

‚… you do realize, that I‘m not really
buying the whole ‚oh, I just happen to
wear a lei and are with two hula girls
while carrying a drink with me just
randomly offering you a trip to Hawaii‘
thing…‘
‚YEAH – YOU GOT ME! I WAS
GOING TO DO IT ANYWAY, AND
YOU CAN‘T REFUSE IT, SO WHAT?
BESIDES, I WOULDN‘T HAVE
MISSED THIS MEETING FOR THE
WORLD – YOU‘RE LITERALLY THE
FIRST SIM IN THIS GUY‘S GAME TO
DIE OF OLD AGE WITHOUT
CHEATING…!‘
‚Should I feel flattered about this
or…?... *chug*… wow, that‘s some

‚…SEE? SO LET‘S GO - SUN, DRINKS

‚I‘m pretty sure you say that to all
people dying of old age in

‚GREAT – MOVE ALONG. AND
LATER, WE COULD DISCUSS A
FEW MORE THINGS, LIKE
ANCIENT HAWAIIAN CULTURE…‘
‚…you just saw that Hawaian Disney
movie, right?‘
‚…OH SHUT UP…BESIDES, WE
ALSO NEED TO TALK ABOUT A

‚ALLEZ….!‘

‚…HOPP! Yes – finally! It felt like I‘ve
been a kid a for ages! Hmmm… I
wonder what aspiration I‘ll…?‘
*dice roll*
‚…Popularity! Of course! I want to be
famous as my parents and
grandparents, but also friends with
everyone and keeping the family
together… you will be proud of me,
Uncle Tony…‘

‚… Uncle Tony? Excuse me, your
father being right here and your only
concern is to make a dead old grump
be proud of him?‘
‚Aww, but Dad… Uncle Tony was a
great guy! We had so much fun on
Twikki Island and…‘
‚… and that‘s what you base your
entire character on from now on? You
should use my ReNuYuSenso Orb, get
a Science Aspiration, become a Mad
Scientist like me – that would make
me proud… ‘
‚… You‘re Fortune, Dad…and Uncle
Toni actually was Science… !‘
‚…‘
‚…and to be honest, while I‘m okay
with you being a Loki Beaker Fan, I‘d
rather not become a nervous Test
subject for you…‘
‚This has nothing to do with…!... go
talk to your Mother, I‘m busy with…
being busy, yeah…‘

‚…Mom?‘
‚Yes Dear? By the way,
Congratulations growing up so
well…! Sorry that we didn‘t throw a
party for you, but without a birthday
cake because of the cooking
restriction…‘
‚That‘s okay Mom, I actually had a
fear of having a party…‘
‚… and then you become a Popularity
Sim?‘
‚… you know, you just answered my
question, why Dad acts so…
contradictory… genetics, I guess…‘
‚… yes, dear, I noticed that too… I
kinda suspect that ‚Mad‘ Scientist isn‘t
just a job description… he recently
tried to tell me something about…
having done something… bad…‘
‚…Do you think he cheated on you?‘
‚ *blush* … NO! OF COURSE NOT!
HOW DARE… *ehem*… no, I‘m

‚…*Grmbl*… dang cats, going at it
again… only thing worse is that
Ottomas kid with his ridiculous new
haircut….!‘
‚Dad, don‘t we actually make money
here at our home business by giving
anyone a haircut with our styling
station for a ridiculous amount of
money? As a Fortune Sims, shouldn‘t
you be happy about that…?‘
‚… You ask way too many questions
you‘re not supposed to ask, son…‘
‚Speaking of questions, Dad, what did
you want to tell Mom after coming
back from our vacation…?‘
‚Okay – That‘s it! I‘m not going to
have a discussion with you anymore!

popularity aspiration, find yourself
some friends with ridiculous
haircuts…!‘

mad and… ooh, right, ‚mad‘…‘

‚… well, guess there‘s no need
arguing with ‚mad‘ people… hmmm,
okay, I should find somebody with a
ridiculous haircut to befriend…not
bad…‘
‚Yeah – go for it, nephew…!‘
‚Uncle Brian!‘
‚What? Now that Uncle Tony has
decided to become a ghost, somebody
has to fill the role of big
Uncle…besides, I had a girlfriend
with an unusual haircut as well when
I was your age… wow, that takes me
back, like years back – up till Episode
6.3…‘
‚Yeah well, I think I can do this
myself… thanks anyway…‘

*… and now Jumbok continues to be
silent again, because these people are

talk to these people…*

‚… wow, that was much easier than I
thought… always thought, you have
to look muscular and big and strong
and be a mountain of confidence to
even get to first base….‘

or be a good dancer…‘

‚… or be good at kissing…‘

‚…or…‘
‚*Swooooooooooon*…‘
*Hmrg – Okay, Jumbok gets it, kid!
You DO know how to swoon a girl…
but seriously, you‘re lucky that she‘s

‚your‘ family apart like this, but…
view it from this perspective, I just
lost a son due to old age, no chance

the general of you zombies…!‘

‚*Snort*… hehe… yeah, that‘s a good
way to say it, kid… very, very good
friends…!‘
‚… what‘s that supposed to mean?!‘
‚Ah, nothing, boy… here, take the
money, and no, we wont eat your cats,
we‘re not that kind of zombies…‘
‚…and what kind of zombies are you
and what do you want with cats?‘
‚… the kind that is afraid to get eaten
by mice and rats, if you want to
know…‘
‚Oh…. That makes sense… kinda…
still, if anything happens to them…!‘
‚… we will get chewed out by our
mighty general your mom is veery
good friends with, I get it…‘
‚Ooooh… you‘re so business-minded
and clever, Cecil… *swooned*‘
‚Your girlfriend is kind of… ….‘
‚…yeah, I know… *sigh*…‘

‚Hehehe… man, that kid is dumb, not
realizing that his mom… anyway, the
guys at home will be happy to have
something juicy on the plate for
once… these cats definitely have more
brains than anybody else in this
neighborhood! Isn‘t that right, kitty?‘
*skunk*
‚Hm? Silent treatment? Doesn‘t
matter, gonna eat you anyway,
starting with the tail,
omnomnomnom, hehehe…‘
-----------------
Note: Barry and Blender made it safely to the rest
of their family at the Simself Lair on their own …
The Mohawk Zombie was killed by the other
zombies because of the stench he emitted from the
mouth… since he was a zombie he got revived
later but only after painful chemical cleaning…
the Skunk took on a job in the parfume
industry… the writer of this note was thrown
into an asylum… the moon was made of cheese
and inhabited by moon cats and dogs…
muhahahhahah…!

‚… I still can‘t believe, you sold them
to the zombies!‘
‚…aw, Mom…‘
‚NO! Not getting out of this one,
young man…‘
‚Mom, I thought since you were
friends with General Don…‘
‚He is only a general by a made-up
title, not any kind of real power….!‘
‚Okay, I get it… ! Look, I‘m sorry,
Mom, I‘ll talk to the guy and get them
back and…‘
‚No – I‘ll talk to Don, he‘ll make sure
that Barry and Blender are safe…‘
‚… by the way, Mom… the zombie
made some comments about you and
Don, as if… ehrm…?‘
‚WHAT?! OH THIS… ehrm, don‘t
worry dear, I will go to General Don
Zombie, he will make chili out of that
guy if he‘s done something to our
cats…!... Hey, let‘s take a photo
together…!‘

‚…There? Isn‘t that nice? Shows how
much fun we had together and…‘
‚Why am I under the impression, that
you‘re evading the question, mom…?‘
‚Oh, oh, oh, let‘s dance – you need to
go to college soon, so we need as
many scholarship as you can get to
have an easier start…!‘

‚DADADA…LALALA…‘
*wild dance*
‚Ehrm… yeah… oh hey, Mr…
uhmm… head-burned-off zombie….?‘
‚…yeah?‘
‚Do you know that Mohawk Zombie?
He bought cats from us and..?‘
‚Oh, that stinker! Tried to eat a
skunk… moron! And You sold cats to
him? Wanted to get rid of them,
right?‘
‚NO – I…‘
‚Ehehe, don‘t worry, that guy couldn‘t
eat his own ass if he… come to think
of it, neither could I… okay, bad
example… let‘s say, he could never
eat a pussy like our general eats this
gree.. AAKH!‘ *Gets strangled by Cecil‘s
Mom*
‚WHAT DID YOU DO TO OUR
PUSSYCATS?!!!!‘
*continues strangling*

‚Oookay…. That was weird with
Mom… I admit, that guy wasn‘t a
model of culture and manners, but she
didn‘t have to kill him…again… oh
well, off to my new job in the anti-
vampire military founded by my
grandpa to get another scholarship…‘

…later…
---------------------------
‚HELLOO-HO! Guess who‘s home
and become top of his career path?..‘

‚…YES! That‘s right! Uncle Brian has
finally overloaded the Servers – the
telephone line is ours again…!‘
‚Thanks for the praise, nephew…!
Yep, without hours of devotion on
pwning these noobs, we‘d never
gotten our phones back… by the way,
I thought we could buy a satellite
mobile or so, they‘re all the rage
now… or so I heard….‘

‚… and another upside of topping the
career is this pretty cool suit…‘

‚*Click* *click* *click*…‘
‚…Would you please stop wasting all
your time on the internet, Cecil?‘
‚But Grandma… I‘m learning a lot
from all these pages… and then
there‘s this adorable kitten video….!‘
‚Amaryllis, what did you expect? The
telephone is back, people will start
bingewatching the internet again….
For research, for study….and all the
other excuses….besides, Cecil has
maxed all his skills, pool billard,
dancing…. Let him have a bit of fun,
it‘s probably his last days, before he
can go to University, where all he will
know is to study hard and look into
books, right? And all without family
supervision… *wink* *wink*….‘
*rapid filling out online form for La Fiesta
Tech…*

‚… Bye, Cecil! Too bad, Bea is on tour
again with Don and his Zombies… ‘
‚Uhm… Greatgrandma? You know,
I‘ve heard some rumours… do you
think, Mom and General Don…?‘
‚Oh hey, there‘s your Cab – Come on,
hop in, give Uncle June and Aunt
Bethany a big hug from me! And
don‘t break to many hearts,
Casanova!‘
‚… does anybody deliberately
overhear what I‘m asking or…? Oh
well, bye, see you next chapter…. ‘
-----------------
To be continued….

….Annnd – that‘s wraps up the first
Chapter a.B. (after Bethoria) …
– word of explanation: we basically assume,
that for the Eden household, anything
related to Bethoria never happened – which
includes for example, that Nicholai Wood
was never killed by Bethany in Episode 8.1.
and therefore Beatrice never needed
consolation by Don in Episode 8.2… also,
Bethany escaped her Captors as shown in
episode 9.3…..
… of course that opens a big can of worms
with questions like: what happened to – or
was experienced by - all the other families
involved in the bethoria arc, the
Apocalypsos, the Zombies (specifically
Don), the Simselfs, the Giekes, Jack and
Frank Stilt etc…?...
-…. rulewise, I have to repeat, that this was
all recorded waaay before the last
apocalypse challenge rules update, so we‘re
basically still running on Freetime rules
here….
In any case, it felt good getting back into the
apocalypse… though it feels more difficult
to write if you can‘t simply assume, that
your Sims have no personality like in
another challenge… now if you excuse me, I
need to have a word with a certain
advertising department….
- HAPPY SIMMING! -

EPILOGUE:
-… and done! Worked the second
Hiatus in, gonna send that now… -
- Wait! We had a second Hiatus? –
- Yeah well, stuff happened… like a
dead mom or putting your life
back together after that…-
-…-
- Relax, I‘m over it….kinda… but
whom am I telling
this?…Anyway, you should get
back to yo… m… our family
now… -
- ..! -
- Uhm… you did… tell them that
this here might take a while… like
a year…? –
- …!!! -

‚WHERE!! HAVE!! YOU!! BEEN?!!‘
*wump*
- Ciel, honey, I can…! – *wump*
‚YOU‘VE BEEN GONE FOR A YEAR!
I‘VE BEEN WORRIED SICK! TAKE
THAT, YOU…!‘ *Wump*
‚Nooo… not the soft cushion! I
confess, I confess!...-
‚ Mom! Dad! What the… are you
doing there?!‘
‚Oh, Mom‘s just acting out because
Dad‘s been gone for a year…‘
‚Wait, Dad‘s been gone for…???‘
‚Sims Time, Sis… anyway, since Dad‘s
been quoting Monty Python Jokes
already, I propose we go camping
tonight to avoid any trauma from
Parental Make Up Woohoo Noises…‘
‚Seriously Em… how are we related
again…?‘
