Drifting along the River of Time.

1. Chapter 6:
Drifting Along the Rivers of Time

2. Drifting Along the Rivers of Time, a nice phrase.
Last time we ended with the unauthorized birth of the second alien spawn for
Olivenite’s generation, and most recently voted heiress, Ruby. I don’t believe I have
many pictures of her toddlerhood, mostly because I was working on the other kids to get
them ready for college. Ignored spare is ignored. Only she became heiress, so<I guess I
should have paid more attention to her huh? *cough* Moving on<

3. The oldest two, Limonite and her alien half brother Pentlandite spent most of their
childhood skilling and preparing for college. Much was the same for their younger sibling
Rhodonite and soon to be Ruby. And much to their creator’s despair, Metrion and Prince
had a falling out and the two became enemies rather quickly after that. When asked for a
statement about their falling out, Metrion simply replied:
“He should not have tried to steal my bed. You do not upset the queen of the
castle and expect forgiveness.”
Sadly, that meant no baby kitties for their creator to squee over. *is sad*

4. Limonite: Kittens would have been nice, I’d want to keep one, but Metrion is so stubborn
when it comes to that. I wanted to race them.
Trent: Kitten racing? Surely not, why would you want to do that?
Limonite: Because you already said no to racing Rhode and Ruby.
Trent: They’re your brother and sister, not race horses!!
Limonite: So?
Trent: Honestly child, where does your mean streak come from?

5. Remember these two? These are the kids of Breccia and Basalt. Pink haired child is
Nepheline, daughter of Breccia and the Grim Reaper, the one in the blue hair is
Diamond, daughter of Basalt and her husband Roger. Nepheline is proof that the
seemingly over dominate Reaper genes can be beaten by powerful recessives. And they
are adorable, which is bonus.

6. Squee over the cuteness that is Nepheline and Diamond. Squee I say!! They both carry the
family eyes as well as Geodessa’s hair so that’s why they got new custom hair so I don’t have
an army of the purple haired ones running loose around Belladonna Cove and confuzzling
me to no end. They will be around a lot so enjoy them while you can.

7. One more for the road. *squee* I got the mommy and the daddy dolls this time. Go me.

8. Onyx married Stephen Benson and moved into an apartment complex. The upscale one
next to the DeBateau one I believe. Being Family sims these two wanted kidlets as soon
as the ring was on the fingers so I obliged.

9. Stephen: Are you sure that this place will be big enough for kids my green
beauty?
Onyx: Yes dear, we picked out a good unit, there’s lots of room.
Stephen: Do you know when I’ll get to meet my baby? I am so anxious to see
them.

10. Onyx: OWW!! I’d say now was about right!!
Stephen: *freak out mode*
And then I get the pop up: There’s TWO new babies in the family.
Looks like another big generation<

11. Onyx: We have twins.
Stephen: I know dear.
Onyx: They look like dad.
Stephen: Yes dear.
Recessives is the name of this generation. Who knew Trent’s recessives were so strong?

12. Twin girls: Emerald and Amethyst. In the black hair is Emerald and the ginger is
Amethyst. It looks like a pretty generation to me.
Onyx: I want another.
Stephen: Me too.
Of course. *eye roll* One of them has the Graduate 3 Kids LTW.

13. Amethyst: We cute?
Emerald: We is cute.
D’aww<got some pics for the Toddler thread I think.

14. Toddler pic spam.

15. As if my generation wasn’t already big enough, we have one more. This is Sapphire,
another girl. Yes, I said ANOTHER girl. But who is her father? Well<

16. It seems that Chanteri here wouldn’t listen to the words of his father or Ani-Mei and
would not be denied the woman he loved<this could only mean that the non-
interference rule with the mortals was broken, and broken pretty badly. Sapphire is
Chanteri’s daughter; and she has my simself’s eyes.

17. Roger: So where is her father?
Breccia: He’s<around Roger. Don’t worry.
Roger: A girl needs a father in her life sis.
Breccia: I believe I can handle raising my daughters myself alright?

18. She’s cute!! It looks like S4 and my simself’s eyes really do work well together. I just
have to fix the poor girl’s hair and she’s good.

19. One quick look in on Obsidian and her guy, the Goth Tricou kid whose name I forgot
now. No kids since they’re Romance/Pleasure types and don’t want any. I have a rule
that says if they don’t roll the want for a baby, then no baby do they get. Which is fine
by me of course. I like to keep a manageable size for my current generation.

20. Back with the main line, more birthdays. I moved them to a new house since the other one
was getting slightly laggy (but I soon found out this one was no better), but it had a
helipad so I thought it was cool. Limonite grew up into a Romance/Pleasure seeker. Don’t
know why the dice said Pleasure for her secondary though, she’s far too serious to really
take advantage of it, but what can you do right? She will soon be followed by her brothers
Pen and Rhode. As well as heiress Ruby.

21. We had some genies saved up so I promptly
sent Limonite over to use them. I do not feel
like doing her 20 Lovers want so she gets
instant genie wish instead. The others will
be used for the other kids once they
teen, unless I still want to do whatever LTW
they roll. Yes I used one of her eight
commands to do this, a pleased Bad Apple is
nice.
(Unless I wasn’t supposed to control my
Teen Bad Apple<) Oops?
Limonite: Peace of Mind please.
Genie B: Sure kid.
Genie A: *yawns* Am I going to be
needed this time?
Genie B: Not this time it seems.

22. Later that night it was Pen’s turn to join teen hood; please say cute<

23. Pen: Alright!! Girls here I come!!
Pen got Knowledge/Popularity. I guess the girls part is for his 20 Best Friends he
wants? I dunno.

24. Pen took a genie wish too, I may as well use them up right? What else are they for but
to be used? They don’t need money, I never really saw much point to the beauty wish,
so I usually go with the Peace of Mind ones they are the most useful.

25. Slightly out of order but Rhode’s b-day was the same day as the others so this was taken
before. He’s a cutie, I love the fact that he got the ears and that all the kids seem to have
gotten them, even if the purple skin was lost after one generation<

26. But<all good things must come to and end and the day after the boys’ birthdays, Grim
came to claim Trent. I was so shocked by this I nearly missed it. I kept an eagle eye on
Geodessa’s life bar after this, she was slightly older but got that two day glitch tacked on
the end. I loved Trent, he was such a good hubby.

27. Trent: Must you? I mean after what Breccia told me about the pirate guy<I
simply can’t go and let him come after my family!!
Grim: I can’t help that; unless he shows up on my list I can’t do anything. But
you are on it and it’s time to leave.
Trent: I never told Geodessa!! She has to know about him!!
Grim: You should have thought of that before. Too late now.

28. This would have been a nice picture except for the slightly annoying FFS dancing on feet
thing that kids do. At least Metrion cared enough to show up.
“I resent the implication; I cared for my mistress’s husband too you know.”
“Sorry.”
“You are forgiven…I suppose.”

29. Poor Ruby had to grow up and miss her
grandpa. I thought it was sad that she had to
grow up the next night without him there.
Ruby: Are you going to leave us too
grandma?
Rhode: Are you?
Geodessa: Not right at the moment my
treasures, rest assured. I will still be here
for a little while yet.

30. And this ends another installment. I have been battling writer’s block for this chapter for
weeks and as much as I would have loved to spend more time with the kids while they
were younger, I simply did not have enough pictures to do so. I got distracted with the
move to New Boolprop and then began my Alphabetacy and this sort of got left on the
back burner until now when I just pushed through it. Now for some stats of the kids in
this chapter:
Emerald Amethyst Sapphire
Capricorn Virgo Scorpio
10/5/4/9/6 10/0/10/9/6 10/8/9/3/1
They don’t really need the whole composition explanations like the others since they are
not mainline kids and their names are pretty much self-explanatory. I wanted to use
names that were outside the Boolprop naming scheme for this OWBC.
