So.. Hi there!

Long time no..write? So it feels wonderful for me to be doing this again And I‟m

staying back now, so whoop!

But it‟s been rather a long time before we heard from the Nightmares, so I think it‟s

only fair to give you a super quick recap of what‟s going on at the moment!

So here are my Generation Two couple – ta dah!

Dear Dongy is sadly having to silently scold Parasite over the demise of yet

another toaster in the Nightmare household. But hey – it‟s not her fault! No one‟s

ever quite trusted the things since they started naming the children..

And here are their two oldest children, and these guys are Generation Three so the

last of this challenge, aww.

The oldest, Oblivion, is possibly even more adorable than his Grandfather and has

firmly lodged his place into my Simming heart and refuses to let go. Squee.

And his sister, Poxy Waste „o Space, is this gen‟s Bad Apple so I can‟t know

anything about her or control her. The evidence I have gathered so far suggests an

incredibly large mouth and lacking in the ability to distinguish between a toilet and a

bath.

„Orrible is of course still being the Most Awesome Granddaddy in the World Ever

and loving ever second of it.

And this little fellow is Certain Doom, and thankfully he hasn‟t lived up to his rather

ominous name (or frankly terrifying way it was delivered) just yet, and is in fact

heading towards being the most placid and level headed Nightmare to date. And

he‟s only a toddler!

Oh yeah, and Ruthless finally found out all about Evil Susan after being mistaken

for her Great-Grandmother in town and has now started killing random citizens of

Riverblossom.

Just.. FYI.

So – on with the show!

“And then the Poxy Doll was all RAWR RAWR RAWR I RULE THE WORLD and I

outlaw SINKS, and all the other Dolls went YAAAAAAAAAY because it was the

cleverest thing anyone has ever done ever!

CeeeeeeDeeeeee, you‟re making too much noise! Slurp quieter!”

C.D. Slurped quieter.

“Oh PoxyPox don‟t go giving CeeDeedums any ideas, okay? Because it‟s your

special today isn‟t it honey? Yes it is, yes it is!”

The little boy giggled and clapped happily with Paris, he was very excited that it

was his birthday too.

“Now come on Poxy, your Granddaddy wants to talk to us all before C.D. Grows up

– to the living room!”

“Thank you for coming Princess, it is good to see you so well.”

“..Daddy? Does this mean what I think..”

“Yes Lousey sweetheart, I‟m afraid it does. So give me some Daddy kisses while

there‟s still time! Lots and lots of them!”

Of course this was a request Louse had no choice but to happily obey.

“Daddy, I‟m really going to miss you. No time for a quick grilled cheese, I guess?”

“Don‟t ever change Leechy! You‟re going to make me ghost grilled cheeses aren‟t

you?”

“Of course!” she smiled, and gave „Orrible a big squeeze.

“Knew you would.”

“Ah RiRi! It is of course an utmost wonder to see you, but you look rather troubled.

And where is my other Princess?”

Riot sighed.

“Ruthless couldn‟t make it today.. Oh Daddy you don‟t really have to go do you?

What am I going to do without you?”

“Be the fine young lady you‟ve always been of course! And that is..a shame, I

would have loved to have all my Princesses together one last time – but I‟m so glad

you‟re here RiRi, I‟m sure Ruthless had a very good reason for not coming.”

“Yeah, maybe the fact she knows we would all KICK HER ASS for what she did.

You can‟t keep something like that quiet in a town like this – she‟s a MURDERER.”

“Leechy!” Paris gasped.

“Well, she is.”

“I know, and it‟s not good but Leechy – please! My children are present. They‟re

just kids and do NOT need to hear their aunts speak about each other like that.”

Leech just looked at the floor, and sighed.

“I‟m sorry. Paris, Daddy.”

“It‟s alright darling. And the little stars have you to look after them Green Princess,

they‟ll be fine. Now c‟mere!”

“I know, but I wasn‟t expecting all this on the same day.. Geez Daddy, some

warning would have been nice – it‟s C.D.‟s birthday!”

“If I could choose another day we would, but we can‟t. Now tell you love me and

give me the biggest Daddy kiss you have in you.”

“And YOU!” he said, strutting over to his wife, “I think you deserve some kisses too

if I‟m not mistaken!”

“I love you Liz, thank you so much for marrying me..”

“Thank you for asking! I love you „Orrible Nightmare. I wish we could.. Have more

time here.”

“I know. But we‟re doing this together and we‟ll still be together on the other side,

right?”

“Right.” Liz smiled. “But now it is time.”

As „Orrible stepped away, his place was almost immediately taken by another

figure.

ELIZABETH FUCHS NIGHTMARE, IT IS TIME THAT YOU CAME WITH ME. YOU

HAVE BEEN A GOOD AND DUTIFUL DENZIEN OF RIVERBLOSSOM, AND IT

MY HONOUR TO ESCORT YOU ON.

“Thank you.”

YOUR CREAMED CORN WILL BE SADLY MISSED.

“I‟ll make you some, someday.”

THAT WOULD BE MOST APPRECIATED.

And with that, Liz was gone.

But of course, that meant that it was 6 „o clock, and in the nursery, C.D. Began to

feel his special leg wobbles, and wondered where on earth everyone was.

But next door, the Reaper turned his attention to the Generation One heir.

„ORRIBLE NIGHTMARE.

“Yeah that‟s me, no need to swing your scythe so!”

ACTUALLY THERE IS, BUT YOU MUST NOW FOLLOW YOUR WIFE INTO THE

BEYOND.

“But.. But.. The Princesses?”

WILL BE FINE. PROBABLY. THAT RUTHLESS DOES SEEM A BIT DOGY

THOUGH. BUT WE DO NOT NEED TO SPEAK OF SUCH THINGS. YOU DID

GREAT THINGS AND TOUCHED THE LIVES OF YOUR MANY FRIENDS HERE

IN RIVERBLOSSOM, AND I MUST CONGRATULATE YOU ON TURNING THE

REPUTATION OF YOUR FAMILY AROUND.

“Err.. Can I just have the drink now?”

OH, SURE.

“Cheers mate. Take care of each other Princesses! I‟ll be watching.. Love you all.”

And with a big gulp of cocktail, „Orrible finally left his family.

..Just as C.D. Became a child.

“Yaaaaay *sob sob hic cough splutter* My son grew up well, I‟m so *hic* happy..”

He did.

And his Mother explained to him what happened later than evening, and the little

boy nodded his head solemnly and patted her on the back. “We will all miss him.”

was his assessment of the situation.

Certain Doom is an Aries by the way, at 7 10 8 3 7. And yet another sweet

Nightmare kiddy!

But alas, a rather unfortunate birthday I must say. Time to get my stat on.

Ah Liz. Quiet unassuming Liz.

You may not have been the most exciting of spouses, but „Orrible showed me time

and time again that it was you he wanted, and we all know I give my boy what he

wants. But I must say, you surprised me with how you often staying in the

background, you were actually the one that kept the house running! Especially

when the girls were little. And you gave me awesome girls! So thank you for that.

Oh my dear little baby.

„Orrible, I don‟t think it‟s an overestimate to say that you‟re one of my favourite Sims

I‟ve ever played. Of course, there are quite a lot of them, but I don‟t think I‟ve ever

had one as genuinely sweet and loving. Great take on Romance. I kept trying to find

a picture of just you – but I couldn‟t! You‟re always surrounded by your family doing

something sweet which is AWESOME!

Evil Susan must be so disappointed in you.

And I will spare you pages and pages of my dears crying, because I have a lot of

shots because there was a lot of crying, but just to let you know..

That things got better.

The Nightmares pulled together, and got through their sadness.

Be it with a wordless touch;

Or saying too much;

“Thank you, my Dear DEAR Dongy! I love you so much right now. I‟m so glad

you‟re here, because you‟re so so amazing. And you know what? It‟s been a rough

few days, and I know there is something you‟re really amazing at, now kiss me

NOW, and take me next door and transport me back into the space that I came

from with some skyrocketing!”

..Or by pretending that they haven‟t heard too much.

“BYE got to go into the garden!” C.D. cried, and sandwich still in mouth fled to the

door.

For even though it is winter, this young chap still has a job to do. No Bug Nut has

ever let me down and not completed their collection in time – so it‟s to the bushes

to hunt with you!

Of course, he proved to start out just as well as his Grandfather.

You‟ll get there C.D., you‟ll get there.

“I can‟t believe you get to spend all day digging around in the dirt outside for creepy

crawlies, I‟m so jealous! That must be wicked being allowed to get that dirty on

purpose.”

“S‟not on purpose, just comes with the job I guess.” he shrugged.

“Oh but still! I wish they‟d picked me to do it..”

“Hey most wonderful and FUNtastic of siblings, what up?” Obi asked, as he joined

them.

“Poxy is thinking about the finer points of cleanliness.”

“And rejecting them all..” she sighed wistfully.

And the following day, the children got some news they‟d been hoping for!

“Is it a snow day Dad of Dads? Oh I hope it is! It would be the most BRILLIANT

thing to get to spend all of this beautiful DAY at HOME with YOU and everyone and

of please oh please oh goshums PLEASE!”

Dongy covered the mouthpiece and smiled at his son.

“YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS

SSSS!!£$”!£11”!!!!!”

And the guys joyfully spend the rest of their snow day playing as many different

games as they could think of, while their parents considered renting a blowtorch to

melt a path to school to have 5 minutes of silence.

Ok, maybe 5 seconds. This is Paris we‟re talking about.

And C.D. was a good lad, taking regular breaks to hunt the frozen wasteland of

Riverblossom for arthropods.

“Guys. Please.

Come.

Here.

Eurgh.”

Absolutely exhausted from having spent the whole day declaring that everything in

his life was even MORE rocking and splenDIFerousTASTICOUS, Oblivion decided

to have an early night to save up adjectives for tomorrow.

But just as he was about to settle down..

“I feel funny..”

“OH MY LILLY LIVERS OF LOVE HOW COULD I FORGET THAT TODAY IS MY

BIRTHDAY NOW THIS IS THE BEST DAY IN THE WORLD ANYONE HAS EVER

HAD ON LIFE

EVER!

“Yeeeeeeeeeeah!

Both spiffy AND slammin‟!

Agreed

Obi rolled Knowledge, which I‟m pleased about, with a LTW to become the Hand of

Poseidon. Which doesn‟t really matter, because the second he becomes an adult

we‟re done here!

He‟s still a Pisces 5 3 7 3 7 and adorable as mouse biscuits.

And over the following days took to his role as oldest-sibling-who-is-now-a-

teenager rather well indeed.

“Night night snugglesome brillo brother, I‟m already looking forward to seeing you

in the morning.”

“Are you sure Poxy?”

“YES! There totally was a potty paper monster over there, going to steal all our

potty paper and use it against us as an offensive weapon!”

“But I don‟t see-”

“There WAS!”

“Okay Poxy, I believe you.”

“Well duh.”

“Thanks for warning me about the scary-o monster though, I‟ll be sure to look out

for him! It‟s so fabizmo that you told me!”

“I‟m glad.”

Milestones!

Paris maxed her fitness enthusiasm;

And Dongy maxed his tinkering!

Meaning, I have now completed all of the Free Time bonuses (junker car, get genie

lamp, heir + spouses all max their pre-destined hobby) so YAY FOR ME!

..or for my simmies. Who did all the work.

Poxy ACTUALLY did something to get her hygiene level up, ON HER OWN.

Paris is still plugging away at her novel for the Storyteller bonus.

Oh, just glancing over the rules for that – it says I need 4, one for each heir. But I

thought I didn‟t have a Gen 3 heir? Anyone know anything about that? Everything

else is just 0, 1 and 2. Meh!

Dongy got his lifetime want!

I can‟t remember what it is because it was months ago I took this!

But well done him anyway!

So to celebrate all our recent successes – it was time to do the dreaded deed.

“Good Evening, it‟s a pleasure to meet you Mr..?

Hello? Answers?

Oh.

You must be one of them Nightmare freaks, right?”

Although Dongy‟s slight odd manner of communication was a bonus in the Emo

Headmaster‟s eyes.

“I‟m so bored of your family‟s grilled cheese, but I‟m LOVING the new addition of

silence.

You‟re in.”

So the following morning, it‟s new uniforms ho!

“..It‟s itchy.”

Oh shut up Poxy, it‟s fabulous.

“Was your day just as wik-to-the-ID as mine was, C.D. Of cool dude?”

“It was fine.”

“Yeah, but was it finerOOnmo?”

“Sure.”

“Boys are so stupid. COME ON. Dad wants us out in the garden, you need to stand

behind me and try not to be blinded by my brilliance while he takes MY picture.”

And they did!

Three truly terrifying Nightmares to add to our collection.

Meaning I now have an image of every sim that has lived in the house on the wall.

Woo!

“You looked lovely in that picture C.D.!

HI I‟M YOUR GRANDDADDY AND I‟M SORRY I DIED ON YOUR BIRTHDAY!”

“thassok thassok thassok”

“..Sorry kid. My mistake.”

“S‟fine.”

“I‟ll go get Princess Mummy.”

The little boy nodded as his knees refused to stop shaking.

But after a soothing cuddle from Paris, he was quite happily to flop into bed and

just forget the whole incident.

And was back on it, fright forgotten, the very next day!

And I just love this picture.

GUESS WHAT CHALLENGE I‟M PLAYING?!!?

Also, Poxy decided to grow up in the middle of the night.

“Come oooooon, the sparklies!”

“Hey I like it! ..Looking good Pox.

Good job sparklies.”

“Hey Dad – pretty good, huh?”

And Dongy snapped his fingers and nodded in agreement.

Again all the info I can give you is that Poxy rolled Family, which is very useful for a

Bad Apple. Good girl!

Right, carrying on.

“Riverblossom is just the most scrumMY place to live, you know?”

Do tell sweetie.

“Well in my class CLASS today we did all about veggie-tables and Mr. Coconut

was just SO enthusiastic about them, it made me think WOW I so should totally SO

do that! Maybe I can get as enthusiastic too, that was be SO neetums!”

“While I‟m out here I might as well give the bushes a bit of a trim too.”

“Oh Mr. Coconut was SO right this is amaaaaaaaaaazing like I‟m in a MAZE!”

“EEP!

They just slipped out of my hand!”

“Phew, that could have been really super un-good and even verging on BAD.

Luckingdom I‟m fine though, phew phew.”

“Hey..

Why don‟t I have a pulse?”

“I think.. Maybe..

This is..

I..”

..Arse badgers.
