Extras: The Dreamers

[strangetomato]

As I mentioned yesterday, I've been playing ahead in Pleasantview (the version that exists in S,HWC) and doing some breeding. Here's a family that I've only showed off once before in the story, at their wedding. With Cassandra being a family sim, you can imagine that they have a few children by now. I wanted to show them off.








The Dreamer Family (in order of age): Darren, Cassandra, Dirk (not shown, since he lives on his own now), Diana, Moira, and Beatrix.




Diana didn't fall far from the tree, and is a Family/Knowledge sim (she's a teen now). She's very successful at the knowledge part of it, and has already maxed all her skills, thanks to the lovely eggplants they grew. She hasn't been so successful in her romantic persuits, but she's still young.




Moira is the only one that looks anything like Cassandra, feature-wise.




Beatrix resembles her older sister, Diana, but has different colouring.

I suspect the Cordial sisters would be very pleased with Cassandra's brood of girls. She's done the family proud.

I'm a new lurker to be sure. I'm in love with SHWC, I've read all of what you have on it in only a few days. :D

It's always interesting to see what people have done with the whole Cassandra/Darren/Don thing in PV. I myself kind of killed it. I actually had Don marry Brandi, when I was pleasantly surprised to see they had 3 bolts in my game. And then Cassandra had to fuck it up by doing some stupid romantic shit on a lot where none of them were controllable. XD Serves me right I suppose.

ANWAYS, I ramble to much. Diana is simply adorable. :D

Nice to meet you! ^_^ I'm glad you've enjoyed what you've read so far. I'm hoping to get a new chapter out in the next week or so. I've had a lot of material floating around for a while now, half written, half shot. I've just been distracted by real life and actually playing the game (which is too fun to pass up).

Hahah, I love when autonomous actions throw a monkey wrench in things. That's one of the real joys of the game for me. Do you use ACR? Since I started using it, I've been quite pleased with the random element it has brought to my game. I couldn't make that stuff up if I tried! :P (Well, maybe... I have an overactive imagination.)

One of my own early takes on Pleasantview was very much "off the rails" from the implied story. I had Brandi marrying Mortimer Goth, which seemed to solve her money issues quite nicely and got Dina out of the picture. I usually pair Cass up with Darren, but she's almost always carrying Don's child when they get married (with or without the divorce). I spared her this time.

Thanks. She's even sweeter as a teen. I may have to show some updated pics.
