Welcome back to
Imprismed and the
Geebiv family! If you’ve
read the last chapter,
you’ll realize that this
loading screen is truly
more indicative of what
is actually going on in
the Geebiv household.
Body language speaks,
even in pixels.
Our third generation
heir, Scarlett has just
transitioned to toddler.
She is a 2/9/2/10/9 Libra
and in case you can’t tell,
her color is red. She did
finally get her makeover.
She’s been a delight so
far, happy to dance and
skill. She’s a quick little
learner too. Not sure if
it’s the smart milk, fall,
her personality or a
combination of all the
above.
Obsidian and Demi have
worked things out for
the most part. There’s
still a bit of hate red in
Demi’s panel, but she’s
not refusing him
anymore. It think
they’re on the mend.
Obsidian has been busy
with Scarlett. Scarlett is
a total Daddy’s girl and
Obsidian is plat because
of his influence bar so
he can give her smart
milk and teach her skills
quickly.
He’s rolled the want for
all three.
I always have them start
with potty training. It
makes life a lot easier.
Cuts down on crying
stinky babies.
And look! They’re
bestest friends too!
Obsidian moved on to
walking but didn’t finish
because he finally got a
job in the Education
career track and had to
go to work.
When he got home,
Demi cornered him
below the stairs and put
the moves on. Like I
said, their relationship is
truly on the mend.
Though she did get her
licks in when she forced
him to be impaled by the
stairs. Fitting payback
for his indiscretion.
Apparently his humble
demeanor and
acceptance of true pain
was enough to make her
trust him again.
Skill learning was
continued during the
day while Demi and
Obsidian were at work.
Uma worked on it
enough to get Scarlett’s
markers up high so that
Obsidian could finish
them up when he got
home.
Which he did.
Now Scarlett walks and
talks.
Demi rolled the want to
teach her the Nursery
Rhyme, so I let her. She
did not have the benefit
of platinum status to
make smart milk
though.
They finished up fairly
quickly though. Scarlett
is a really quick learner.
Roy and Uma I never
have to worry about. If I
need them for
something, they’re
either here, or in bed.
Or playing instruments.
Both have maxed their
enthusiasm for music so
they’re “in the zone”.
Obsidian was at a high
enough level career-wise
to get the Education
Bookcase. He was also
the first to use it to gain
the necessary skill points
for his next promotion.
*Insert your favorite
curse word here because
I probably used them all*
Demi is pregnant. This
was not a rookie mistake
either. This was because
ACR hates me. They are
not allowed to try for
baby. They are allowed
to woohoo all they want,
and that includes the
risks that go along with
it. Now, you’re probably
thinking that I should
just remove ACR, but…I
actually like having the
surprises and diversity it
offers.
She looks so smug about
it too. If there was an
animation where a sim
could stick their tongue
out at me, I think she
would be using it right
now.
Rule #5, we don’t need
no stinkin’ Rule #5.
At least it’s only one.
Demi’s maternity leave
allows her to spend
more time with Scarlett.
Since she’s learned all
her skills, a lot of that
time is reading stories
and singing the nursery
rhyme.
The red room upstairs
has become quite the
family gathering place.
For all members at all
times. Scarlett has
cornered her mother for
one more nursery rhyme
before it is time to grow
up.
She’s super outgoing,
but had the fear of a
party, so there was no
party. Just Mom and
Dad. Grandma and
Grandpa were occupied.
Uhem...woohoo…uhem.
Isn’t she pretty?!
Off to the wardrobe for
you young missy.
Ahhh. Better.
Uma loves that Demi is
pregnant again. I gave
her family as a secondary
and she does this all the
time. Obsidian hasn’t
done it once.
He did top his career
though and is now
permaplat for real.
Demi went into labor
during a woohoo
session. Obsidian was
disappointed and
protested by foregoing
clothing for it.
Not really. He spun into
clothes just as her labor
really started.
Meet Carmine Geebiv,
unauthorized spare of
generation three, and
probable clone of his
sister.
Carmine does mean red.
It’s also the name of the
guy who was in love with
Shirley on Laverne &
Shirley. You youngsters
probably have no idea
what I’m talking about.
Ahh, things in the
Geebiv house are
returning to an even,
loving place as
evidenced in this
loading screen. Suffice
it to say that Obsidian
and Demi have salvaged
their relationship.
Marsha, Marsha,
Marsha. I haven’ t seen
Marsha in a dog’s age in
game.
Scarlett started school
and brought her home
to play the very first day.
She’s a bundle of energy
and still totally a
Daddy’s girl. She
welcomes him home
from work every day.
Demi rolled the want to
have Scarlett go to
Private School and the
headmaster was invited.
It was a rough visit, but a
well timed threat
suggestion from Uma
did the trick and Scarlett
was welcomed into the
school.
Scarlett has been
sleeping in the Murphy
Bed that was installed
during the marital
discord between her
parents. She doesn’t
mind too much. Of
course, there are those
times when one of the
adults will forget she’s
sleeping and turn on the
jukebox, but there are
tons of things to do in
the great room when she
wakes up every morning.
Like burp the alphabet
into the podium
microphone. She’s up to
the letter “N”.
Actually, I hate this
animation. It’s gross
and it’s so repetitive and
obnoxious. Every kid
she brings home is
drawn to this too, in
spite of the nice
playground they have set
up.
More burpers. Marsha
asked if she could bring
a friend, and he tuned
out to be the Ricky
Cormier clone here.
Carmine is a bit of a
difficult baby. He’s
ignored by most of the
household.
Except Roy. Roy loves
him to bits.
Though it was a bit
concerning when he
tried to smother him one
day with his sweater. It’s
okay, Roy. True, he is an
unauthorized spare, but
you don’t have to take
such drastic measures.
The one-eyed monster
became an effective
babysitter though.
Especially when both
couples in the house had
other things to attend to.
Uhem…woohoo…uhem.
Ebony still stops by
every now and then. It’s
not so bad. She’s getting
to know her niece and
nephew. This occasion
is special though. It’s a
birthday party for
Carmine.
Gilbert is just sitting
back on the couch
waiting for the
entertainment to begin.
Last time, Sandy Bruty’s
fight was the best time
he had seen in years.
You never knew what
was going to happen at a
Geebiv party.
The cake was brought
out, and Uma had the
honors. The crowd
gathered, blew horns
and cheered.
And Uma stood there for
an inordinate amount of
time holding Carmine.
You can see Roy’s
frustration. It’s like he’s
saying, “just throw the
baby already woman!”
Alas, it was not to be.
Baby diaper changed,
another cake was
procured and this time
Demi brought little
Carmine to blow out the
candles.
The crowd cheered and
blew horns again.
And Demi put the baby
on the floor instead of
throwing him in the air.
Gilbert thought the fight
was much more
entertaining. The
Geebiv’s were going to
have to improve the
entertainment if they
expected everyone to
have a good time.
Oh, ignore the wallpaper
change. I had a slight cc
cull error and it was a
temporary replacement.
Carmine was put into
the crib and everyone
made their way home
and to bed.
He woke in the middle
of the night and Demi
tried to comfort him to
no avail. She took him
down to the kitchen
thinking he might be
hungry.
Before she could get a
bottle though, he
jumped from her arms
and she was holding a
toddler.
A very cranky, strong
willed toddler.
Careful what you wish
for Demi. Remember,
this was your choice, not
mine.
Carmine is a clone of his
sister. *makes note to
roll dice next time the
game is opened*
He’s a 2/9/2/10/9 Libra.
The following days
proved difficult for all
the adults in the house.
Carmine wouldn’t potty
train…
…and hated the bathtub.
There were other issues
too, such as blocks being
thrown and drawings
being scribbled on.
Thank plumbbob the
stuffed bear wasn’t in the
nursery at the time. It
likely would have no
stuffing left.
Eventually, Carmine
settled down a bit, to
everyone’s relief. Potty
training finally was
completed.
He even came to enjoy
his baths. Well, perhaps
enjoy isn’t the right verb.
Maybe tolerate is a
better word.
Winter came and snow
fell. Demi decided to
make a snowman.
She was interrupted by
Obsidian and decided to
finish it later.
“„Tis a cryin‟ shame the crime of leaving you unfinished, my lovely crystallized minion.”
“I shall have to recalculate the plan for domination over all Simland.”
“The bombs are almost ready.”
“My hands are tied. There are not enough minion to carry out the plan.”
“Back to the drawing board for me. I thought the red haired woman would be the one we could manipulate to build our army.”
“First though, the Antarctica vs. Arctic soccer match.”
“And perhaps a beer.”
Weird penguins.
Scarlett was excited for
the first snow of the
season. It was the first
she had ever seen and
she couldn’t wait to play
in it.
Roy and Uma also
enjoyed the snow. It
didn’t effect their cuddle
time outside whatsoever.
Scarlett was a very good
big sister. She helped
look after Carmine when
they both woke in the
morning.
She was very good at
entertaining him as well.
Carmine loved his big
sister.
Carmine also was
introduced to Ebony.
Besides having their
unauthorized existence
in common, I hope to
move him into Ebony’s
house when he’s an
adult. They can keep
each other company.
There was definitely a
connection there. The
two bonded almost
immediately.
Then Ebony went
downstairs and watched
her parents on the
couch. O.o
I’d throw up too Eb. Not
sure why she’s puking.
Could be what she just
saw, could be she ate
something. Pretty sure
she isn’t preggo. I don’t
think I have a hack in
that would let her and
her girlfriend do that.
The next birthday party
was a double party, and
just the family was there.
Scarlett is pretty. She
got a nice mix of facial
features I think.
She rolled Popularity,
joining her Father, Aunt
and both Grandparents
in aspiration.
(Obsidian’s is
secondary). I think my
dice are cursed.
Her LTW is to become a
Rock God, OTH is
Nature, and TO/O are
undies-glasses/full face
make-up.
Carmine grew up
adorable too. Let’s hope
his crankiness has
settled down.
The nursery was
remodeled a bit. The
kids will share a room
with a divider for a little
privacy.
Well, hello Juan Harris!
Look, green eyes!
Scarlett brought him
home. Fingers crossed
she likes him. I know we
married in a townie
already, but how can you
pass this up?!
Carmine is still troubled.
He is a very fitful sleeper,
tossing and turning
most of the night.
That is until Roy comes
and tucks him in. It’s
like he knows his
grandson is fretting.
He’ll usually settle down
after his Grandpa
soothes him.
Speaking of Roy, his life
bar is getting shorter and
shorter. I’m not sure
how much longer he
has. He might not make
it until Scarlett goes to
college. Uma and he
spend as much time
together as possible and
can usually be found
dancing somewhere on
the property. I really
love these two.
Scarlett got a job in the
music track. A little
head start for my little
Rock Star.
Demi wants her to be an
overachiever.
She brought home David
Ottomas. Really? Juan
did nothing for you, but
David does?
Yeah, he does a little
something for her. IN
HER PARENTS
BEDROOM! GET OUT
OF THERE!!
Luckily, Carmine has her
back and rushes in to
save her before David
takes advantage of her
delicate teenage
sensibilities. [/sarcasm]
Or he’s just tired and the
bed is the most
comfortable.
Regardless, his ploy
worked and David left
shortly afterward.
Just before the tree in
the yard went up in
flames and Obsidian
scared us by rushing out
to do his fire dance. The
rain did finally put it
out.
But storms came back
with a vengeance, this
time setting the
telescope ablaze. Once
again, the rain took care
of it before it did any
real damage. I’m just
glad no one was looking
through it at the time.
Carmine may be the
unauthorized spare this
generation, but he loves
his family and they all
love him. There was
some cause for concern
when he was younger,
but he’s seemed to have
found his niche now.
Scarlett topped her teen
career after two or three
days of working.
Her mother got her
aspiration points for
having an overachiever.
On everyone’s day off,
the entire family headed
to the park.
Roy and Carmine
became best friends
after a short game of red
hands.
The kids greeted some
other children and
played on the swings for
a time before deciding to
try their hand at fishing.
The adults took
advantage of the
glorious weather and
behaved as they usually
do at home, chit-
chatting and dancing.
Carmine was the only
one to catch something
that wasn’t a boot.
Back at home, Demi
finally got that final
logic skill point she
needed for her
promotion to City
Planner. Now she just
needed to get a day at
work.
Obsidian also wrote and
sold a great novel about
a man who fell in love
with two women and
how he overcame the
difficulties that caused
in his life. It was only
semi-autobiographical.
Roy’s life bar was getting
close to being full, so he
gave Carmine his cell
phone.
Sure enough, that
evening, Grim showed
up with the hula girls.
Ebony had been invited
over, knowing that Roy’s
time was coming close.
The entire family
mourned. His estate
was divided between 19
people, including the
headmaster of the
private school.
Carmine took it really
hard, breaking down
quite regularly.
Obsidian honored his
father by playing a
fantastic blues riff on his
favorite guitar.
Roy was laid to rest in
the garden behind the
house where he an Uma
had spent so many good
times with each other.
Uma was often found
out there, keeping him
informed about what
was happening in the
family.
Roy, Roy, Roy. You were
awesome as a founder. I
don’t think you ever met
a sim you didn’t like.
You were a great founder
and didn’t let your looks
slow you down at all.
Your slouch, slob
tendencies, ability to
make friends and
kindness are still evident
in the third generation.
You will be missed.
Life slowly went back to
normal. Scarlett
brought friends home
from school, got good
grades, worked, and
built up her skill levels
for scholarships.
Demi finally achieved
her life time want and
topped the architecture
career track becoming a
city planner.
Carmine was accepted
into the private school.
Scarlett scored her first
kiss with David.
There were all kinds of
icons floating above
their heads that night.
It was also the same
night that Carmine
would transition to teen.
He didn’t have a party,
but there were a ton of
people at the house
anyway.
If we look more closely
at Obsidian, he seems
more concerned with
the large red heart
floating above his baby
girl’s head.
Carmine didn’t fare quite
as well as his sister, his
mouth and cheeks being
his most identifying
features.
I have a plethora of
Popularity sims, and
Carmine did not want to
be left out. He rolled
popularity too and wants
to own five top level
businesses. Yeah, good
luck with that one. His
OTH is Nature (like his
sister) and his TO/O are
Jewelry – Red Hair /
Cologne. Clone.
We also had to do a Very
Bad Thing. We invited
the College Ho’s over.
They’re both members
of the Greek House, and
the original plan was to
have them become
family friends so
generation three
wouldn’t have much
trouble getting in.
Scarlett and Carmine
now have them both on
their contact lists and
can use their cell phones
to build enough of a
friendship with them to
get in.
Luckily, drama was
avoided.
Uma’s life bar was
quickly approaching it’s
full point so she invited
Ebony over for a visit.
Ebony brought Audrey
with her and Uma was
able to become friends
with her.
It turned out she had
one more day after that
and she spent it playing
games and chatting with
her grandchildren.
Carmine invited Angie
Macarevich over and
they shared their first
kiss.
They also shared his
parents bed and
demented hearts were
flying. To celebrate, the
young couple did the
smustle.
That sweet, innocent
dress she’s wearing is a
lie.
As expected, that
evening Uma felt a chill
as she was talking to
Demi in the bathroom.
Note that it is the
smallest bathroom in
the house. Which made
it difficult to get any
shots, let alone good
shots.
But it did allow for some
humorous things.
The real way Grim
makes sure sims will
come with him is to
shove his scythe into
their skulls.
He then merges with
family members that are
still living.
Notice Angie trying to
ingratiate her way into
the family by pretending
she is sad about Uma
dying. She never
formally met Uma.
I’m telling you, the dress
is a lie.
Picture with the walls
down to show you how
many people were there
and crowded around as
Uma made her final
departure.
No picture, but everyone
was just as broken up
about her passing as
they were about Roy’s
Uma, you were perfect
the minute you turned
around and handed Roy
that drink. Your
neatness and energy
complemented him
perfectly. As founding
power couples go, you
were part of the best.
You will be missed.
I don’t want to end on a
completely sad note, so
have a nice picture of the
founding couple
enjoying themselves in
the garden.
