Chapter 353

Why complete your homework inside when you can complete it outside in the freezing cold rain?

 

Tummy time for Tanner!

Ooh! Servo's caterpillars have made cocoons!

Conner: "Hey, who are you? I've never seen you around here before."

Liam: "I'm Liam Morris, formerly known as 'Lil' Monster'. I'm Preslie's imaginary friend that she turned real with the power of believing."

Conner: "So you're who she's been talking to this whole time."

Preslie: "I told you I wasn't talking to myself that whole time, mom."

Cody: "This just proves once and for all that we're not crazy."

There's still plenty of proof that you are crazy.

Elyse: "Are you guys playing a prank on me? Surely, you're just Preslie's friend from school, right?"

Preslie: "Nope. He's my imaginary friend turned real."

Cody: "I'm posting on social bunny about how we're not crazy, after all."

Elyse: "You can't just turn an imaginary friend real with the power of believing! That makes no sense!"

Liam: "Lots of things don't make sense!"

Servo is such a great caterpillar dad. He's even reading to them!

Preslie: "Who wants to help out with my science project?"

Liam: "Let's complete this project in record time!"

It's Harvestfest time! 🦃🍂🍁

Ian: "Sweet dreams, Tanner!"

Liam: "We made the most awesome volcano ever!"

It is pretty awesome!

Why the heck is every sim in the household leaving their dirty plates on Servo's gem cutting station?!

Ian: "What did one plate say to the other? 'Dinner is on me!'"

This stan has the audacity to stalk Servo every night and then yell at Chip?!

No one yells at a Parsons pet!

Servo: "I don't care that you've been stalking me for years, all I care about is that you yelled at my cat. Say hello to my little contraption."

Stan: "Huh? ...'Contraption'?"

The freeze ray strikes again!

On a positive note, Servo's caterpillars have grown into a beautiful butterfly and a moth!

The moth, an owl moth, is one the Parsons don't have yet!

Servo: "Time to raise some more caterpillars!"

A few hours later, the stan has unfrozen and must shamefully walk home.

Cody: "Do you have any collectables to trade with me, kind neighbor?"

It's something the Parsons already had. Bummer!

Servo almost forgot to cook the turkey!

He'd better cook it before the gnomes notice!

Is there a reason you're all walking thorough the back door to go to school?

Oop- it appears an alien gnome is blocking the front door.

Cody hasn't been able to get any new collectables from any neighbors. Perhaps he'll have better luck somewhere else.

Cody and Elyse are down in Gibbi Point!

They're here to hopefully earn a new collectable through a game of rock, paper, scissors.

Cody & Buddy: "Rock, paper, scissors, SHOOT!"

Surprisingly, Cody won on his first try!

Cody: "A First Place Finchwick Fair Chicken Competition Ribbon! Awesome! We didn't have that, yet!"

Who is this peculiar looking creature?

Cody: "Hey, there! ...Are you a sim or a bird?"

Pruella Preener: "Oh, hi there. I'm the Peculiar Plumbird. I don't really know you very well yet. Do you know much about Plumbirds? Squawk, squawk!"

Cody: "I know absolutely nothing about Plumbirds. Do you sleep in a nest?"

Pruella Preener: "Yes, yes I do. I'm not interested in leaving my nest all that often, but I do like to see if I can get some toasted marshmallows at that 'Round the Fire Festival."

She wasn't kidding. She absolutely lives in a nest.

Elyse is trying her luck to see if she can fish out the new fish.

Cody: "Man... this sure is one huge nest."

Zaylee: "It's freezing in here again!"

The rays of sunshine are home from school! (Including Chip.)

Ian: "Look who's ready for a nap."

Zaylee: "The alien gnome likes apple pie!"

Zaylee: "We have a special alien connection."

Hooray! Servo reached the top of the law career in the judge branch!

Next, he'll be joining the business in the management branch.

According to a pop-up, Liam and Preslie have developed a crush on each other!

Liam: "So... any plans for prom?"

Preslie: "I want nothing more than to skip prom."

Conner: "I forgot to check my locker for prom invitations! There's probably so many!"

Sure...

Hooray! Tanner sat up for the first time all on his own!

Looks like Max had a puppy with another dog in the neighborhood! Introducing Cedar Parsons.

Chip also had a kitten with another cat in the neighborhood! Introducing Coral Parsons.

These three need to study for their final exams tomorrow.

Ian: "Turkey time!"

Elyse: "This is impeccable!"

Cedar: "I want some turkey, too!"

Ian: "Hooray! The gnome accepted my gift! There's gnome worries around here, today."

Preslie: "You have such beautiful eyes."

Liam: "Hehe, I do?"

Preslie: "Yep! I'm posting on social bunny about how beautiful they are."

Why are the gnomes all gathered around the fridge...? Should I be concerned?

Liam: "Well... you have such a beautiful entire face."

Preslie: "Liam! That's so sweet!"

Chip: "Don't go anywhere near the food bowl."

Liam: "Hmm... since Preslie doesn't want to go to prom, maybe I could make a 'will you skip prom with me?' sign!"

That's such a sweet idea!

Zaylee: "I need to tinkle immediately... again!"

Zaylee: "I am not losing control of my bladder for the second time!"

*Sparkles!*

Chip aged up into an elder!

Now that Tanner can sit up, time for him to learn how to crawl!

Coral: "Look at me! I can run!"

Cedar: "What's this?"

One of the countless seed packets left around by the Harvestfest gnomes.

Hooray! Tanner is now crawling!

Ian: "Uh oh..."

Poor Tanner had a diaper blowout!

Ian: "Zaylee can deal with this."

Zaylee: "Are you kidding me?"

Zaylee: "I'll get Ian back for this."

School is in session!

Conner: "Stay away from me for the entire day, got it?"

Preslie: "Are we not cool?"
Liam: "We're awesome!"

Student: "T-pose challenge!"

Preslie: "I need fresh breath... I don't want Liam to think my breath stinks!"

Liam: "I think this apple has been in my locker for a few weeks..."

It's time for the final exams!

Preslie has studied lots and is totally prepared.

Lunch time!

Liam: "Ugh! I hate cafeteria lunch!"

Preslie: "What about vending machine lunch, instead?"

Liam: "Okay... 2 simoleons..."

Liam: "Hey! My soda is stuck!"

Apparently, this is way better than cafeteria lunch.

Conner: "I'm posting on social bunny about how awful cafeteria food is!"

Looks like those sodas immediately caused some full bladders.

Time for the final exam of the day!

Liam: "Preslie... now that school's out for the day, I have a question to ask you."

Preslie: "Okay..."

Liam: "Will you skip prom with me?"

Preslie: "Woah..."

Preslie: "Of course I will! This sign is so thoughtful, Liam."

*Hug*

Liam: "You deserved something special, even for skipping prom."

Preslie: "When did you find the time to make that?"

Liam: "I always have the time for you."

Liam: "I also found some time to do this..."

*Kiss*

Preslie: "I'm glad you made time for that, too."

Selfie!

So adorable! Liam and Preslie are now officially a couple!

Back at home, it's go time!

Zaylee: "Thank gosh. I've been in labor all day!"

You've got this, Preslie!

*Sparkles!*

It's a girl! 💖 Introducing Whitney Parsons!

Zaylee: "Now, I need to tinkle again."

Preslie is working on her handiness skill for her future career prospect!

A Parsons spare has been spotted in the wild.

I think these two want Servo's attention...

Hooray! Zaylee has reached level 10 of the fitness skill!

Ian is on midnight bottle duty!

Tanner is also awake bright and early, so Zaylee is teaching him to stand.

Ooh! Servo's caterpillars have grown into two butterflies the Parsons don't have yet!

Hooray! Tanner is now standing!

Zaylee: "Thanks to my expert teaching."

Happy birthday, Tanner!

Tanner aged up into a toddler!

Whitney aged up into an infant!

Where are the Parsons, you ask? In their new house in Gibbi Point! If you want to see a tour of the house, check it out on my Instagram!

With a new house comes a new stan for poor Servo.

Tummy time for Whitney!

Cody decided to take Max for a walk around the new neighborhood, Jellyfish Junction!

Cedar: "I can't wait until I can go for walkies, too!"

It's such a beautiful neighborhood.

There's even a park right near the house!

Liam: "A slide!"

Liam: "Yippee!"

Sleep time for Whitney!

Uh oh... the welcome wagon has reared its ugly head.

Instead of fruitcake, however, these guests have brought some... grilled jellyfish?

Ian: "Don't be jelly we get to eat this delectable dish."

Oh, I'm certainly not.

Preslie: "Hmm... surprisingly not bad."

Tanner: "Yuck! I don't want grilled jellyfish."

Cedar is guarding the door better than the burglar alarm ever could.

Hooray! Whitney sat up for the first time all on her own!

Ian: "Who's the expert teacher, now?"

Zaylee: "It's still me."

Servo is serving up some delicious breakfast!

The Parsons are helping Servo out with crafting jewelry for the crafted items room.

This is going to be a huge help since there's so many jewelry variations left to craft!

Ian: "Do I have to help out, too?"
Tanner: "I don't have to help!"

This means lots of cloning will need to happen for the rare gems.

Cody: "Come on! The cloning machine broke already!"

Cedar aged up into an adult!

So did Coral!

Tanner is loving winter holiday music!

Time for Whitney to learn to crawl!

You have been jumping in puddles all day. Stop it!

Hooray! Whitney is now crawling!

Coral: "My dad is taking a nap when he could be running around the house at the speed of light like I do all day?"

Next, time for Whitney to learn to stand.

Cedar: "I know how to stand!"

Great job.

Hooray! Whitney is now standing!

Ian: "She deserves a standing ovation!"

Cedar: "See? This is how you stand!"

Get off the stove!

And get off the counter, Coral!

Coral: "No."

Liam: "School was awful today. I dropped my lunch tray in front of everyone!"

Hooray! Servo reached the top of the business career in the management branch! Next, he'll be joining the conservationist career in the marine biologist branch.

Coral: "Back away from the food bowl."

Why are you watching TV? You're supposed to be crafting jewelry.

Elyse: "Busted!"

Happy birthday, Whitney!

Happy birthday, Conner!

Happy birthday, Cody!

Happy birthday, Elyse!

Conner aged up into a young adult! Now, get out.

Whitney aged up into a toddler!

Cody aged up into an elder!

So did Elyse!

Elyse: "I'm an elder?!"

Cody: "I'm a cool elder. I know how to use technology."

After all these years, these two are still so in love.

Coral, stop scratching the couch!

Cedar, stop drinking from the toilet! These pets are giving me a run for my money, today.

Servo: "Coral, we don't scratch the couch."

Peacefully sitting in front of the fireplace is permitted, though.

Elyse: "Mmm! Grilled fruit!"

Ian has been tasked with decorating the winterfest tree!

Meanwhile, everyone else is back to crafting jewelry.

The jewelry in the crafted items room has been coming along so much faster!

Whitney: "I'm excited for winterfest tomorrow!"

Uh oh!

Zaylee: "I got it, I got it, I got it!"

Zaylee: "You didn't see that."

The gothic dollhouse doll has made a return.

Whitney: "Are you happy it's winterfest tomorrow, Blarffy?"

Bonehilda: "Whether it's winterfest, spooky day or any other day... I'll still be cleaning up after these sims."

Cedar: "I need to hurry up and eat breakfast before the cats catch me near the food bowl."

The winterfest tree is complete!

The only thing left to do is add presents.

Ian: "We can't forget about decorating the outside of the house, too."

Servo is preparing the grand breakfast a day early!

It's winterfest time! 🎄🎅🎁

Elyse: ♫ "It's the most wonderful time of the year!" ♫

That doesn't mean you get to stop crafting jewelry.

Elyse: "Aww, man!"

This gnome glows at night! That's so cool!

Happy birthday, Preslie!

Preslie aged up into a young adult!

Aaand, here we have our generation 30 heiress! I cannot believe the Parsons family has come this far, I appreciate each and every one of you who reads this legacy and leaves such lovely, wonderful comments. It truly means so much to me! I really hope you'll join the Parsons on their journey to generation 40!

Happy birthday, Liam!

Liam aged up into a young adult!

Liam: "I get to stay too, right?"

Of course you do!

Now that Preslie is a young adult, she gets to join her dream career as a park worker!
