The Timbersons: Chapter 25

Last time, Candace died and Daphne had some drunken adventures. Let’s just be thankful that I played that chapter long, long before Late Night was even confirmed. Actually, I think Daphne would’ve been funner with clubs and stuff.

Screenshot-3008

Daphne is currently celebrating the next day with a hangover.

Screenshot-3011

But she still manages to gracefully aim for the toilet, and go to work in her shnazzy uniform.

Screenshot-3013

After work, Cassie was stunned by her daughter’s new makeover.

Screenshot-3016

Cassie: Daphne Timberson! What has gotten into you? Have you been going to those raves again?

Screenshot-3015

Daphne suddenly added 23 and 23 2 and 2 together.

Screenshot-3021

After Cassie left, Daphne felt remorse over her night. She decided to do what any pregnant woman does:

Screenshot-3022

Get cravings.

Screenshot-3025

Soon enough, Daphne gets a baby bump.

Screenshot-3026

Daphne realizes that she has to deal with settling down now, because she can’t go sleeping around town with a toddler at home. Why? Because in Sims 3 legacies, babies aren’t just props. Ahem Friends. I think she was more upset because she had to keep the makeover for a while, though.

Meanwhile, in a cry for attention, Eva begins practicing self harm.

I’ve watched too much Degrassi

Don’t be scared, though. Eva’s a Daredevil and she’s just fulfilling her wants.

Screenshot-3032Screenshot-3033

Daphne decides to break the news to her father. He’s not shocked, because according to him, she spends too much time on beds anyway.

Screenshot-3035

Screenshot-3037

Unfortunately, she had to ruin this brief Father-Daughter bonding moment by talking about the baby’s conception. There’s a reason why EA hides you under the covers, Daph!

Screenshot-3038Screenshot-3039Screenshot-3040

But then they patch things up by talking about baby bottles.

Screenshot-3042

And Daph has yet another mood swing by yelling at her father.

Screenshot-3046

But it’s okay, because it’s from the hormones. Right? RIGHT?

Screenshot-3047

Daphne spent a lot of time at home, because she didn’t want the world to see her like this. Besides, politicians don’t like single moms, especially if it’s a combo.

Screenshot-3049

Daphne decides to take the honor upon herself for discussing the birds and bees with Eva.

Screenshot-3051

I don’t know. I just like this picture.

Screenshot-3053

Daria decides to promote her music to the only people that care. To be fair, everybody in Riverview was an Elder by that point. I swear, it’s like they all age up at the same time, then they all die at the same time and the town’s empty for a while, and there are new people.

Screenshot-3054

Meanwhile, pregnant Daphne decided that after months of hiding in her bedroom, it’s time to… pamper yourself at the spa.

Screenshot-3057

Daphne’s crazy cravings continued.

Screenshot-3059

Daphne decided that not even her baby bump could stop her from her LTW. So she met this fine gentleman at the Bistro.

Screenshot-3061

She decided to hide in the bush first just in case if he didn’t like children. But, he did, so…

Screenshot-3063

I think this picture can caption itself.

Screenshot-3065

… I don’t understand why the game lets pregnant Sims blow up in these (even though it’s CC) but they can’t let pregnant Sims wear baggy clothes or something. Maybe they’re saving it for Generations?

Screenshot-3068

Cassie freaks out because she realizes that Daphne never told her about her pregnancy.

Screenshot-3070

It’s a boy! His name is Evan.

Screenshot-3071

Cassie, get used to holding Evan. Something tells me Daphne won’t be the best Mom.

Screenshot-3073

And Daphne’s hair started to grow again.

I had a lot of short hairstyles I never used and decided this would be a good opportunity to use them.

Screenshot-3077

Cassie and Brighton hang out while babysitting Evan.

Screenshot-3078

It’s okay Daphne, it’s not like you have a son or career to care about or anything…

Screenshot-3079

It’s good that Evan sleeps a lot, Daphne.

Screenshot-3080

First event: Babysitting.

Daphne monitors Evan in a bored manner.

Screenshot-3084

Cassie actually appreciates her grandson. I really should’ve change the nursery color, so Cassie wouldn’t be invisible, lol.

Screenshot-3085

Cassie wins a gold for the first event.

 

Second event: The Night Shift.

Screenshot-3091

Daphne clearly doesn’t want to be there. She speaks on her cellphone loudly enough to wake Evan up.

Screenshot-3092

Grandpa Nikolas is quiet and focuses on Evan.

Screenshot-3094

Nikolas wins the gold for the second event.

Screenshot-3102

Daphne takes a cue and starts caring about Evan.

Screenshot-3105

New hairstyle.

Screenshot-3109

Gasp! It’s Evan’s first time being outside the nursery since birth! You know what that means…

Screenshot-3110

Screenshot-3113

Birthday time!

Screenshot-3114

Someone didn’t teach Daphne in her prenatal classes that you don’t put kids on the floor.

Screenshot-3117

Screenshot-3120

But Evan still looks cute, so it’s okay.

Screenshot-3121

Evan wearing black and being a brunette works out really well because he contrasts the nursery. XD

Screenshot-3124

Cassie teaches Evan to read, while…

Screenshot-3126

Daphne’s a smelly alcoholic. Get a grip, Daphne!

Screenshot-3128

Screenshot-3130

Screenshot-3136

Just because the house has 8 Sims in it, doesn’t mean you could freeload off of everyone else as babysitters, Daphne.

Screenshot-3138

I don’t know what the rarest part of this picture is: Eva and Vaughn have been mentioned, or Daphne is actually parenting. Hmm…

Screenshot-3142

Daphne’s alcoholism kicked in again.

Screenshot-3143

But she knows how to trade the bottle of Jack for a baby bottle, so she’s getting better.

Screenshot-3148

Meanwhile, Eva gets an intervention from Vaughn about her self harm.

Screenshot-3149Screenshot-3150Screenshot-3151

-Mini spam-.

Now, some of you who keep up with continuity might be wondering, ‘Does Daphne’s baby daddy know about Evan?’. Well…

Screenshot-3155

Now he does.

Screenshot-3156

It seems that Daphne’s the only one who forgot what Evan’s Dad job was.

Screenshot-3158

Evan looks like a fish, according to Pizza Man.

Screenshot-3163

Screenshot-3164Screenshot-3165Screenshot-3166

Daphne decides to break things off with Pizza Man. It’s not like she needs him, anyway. She moves on quickly and Evan barely interacts with Daphne, let alone his father who he never knew before. And it’s not like he’s gonna remember much about him as a toddler anyway.

Screenshot-3172

New hair time. This legacy has turned into the Daphne show. D:

Screenshot-3176

Screenshot-3178

Daphne was undateable after she had Evan. I think the guy in the second screenshot was in this screenshot:

Screenshot-3065

Well, he saw her at her worst, so I wouldn’t date her either. XD

Screenshot-3183

Meanwhile in the other half of the double heirdom, Daria has to take care of her cousin’s child.

Screenshot-3192

Congrats Daria. You’ve been a better Mom to Evan in 2 screenshots than Daphne ever will be.

Screenshot-3190

Eva tried to get a boyfriend.

Screenshot-3195

Eva went steady with Percy.

Screenshot-3197

They were together day and night.

Screenshot-3198

Daphne comes back to be a parent, out of nowhere.

Screenshot-3204

Clearly, Evan would rather hang out in a box than talk with his Mom.

Screenshot-3207Screenshot-3208

Birthday time!

Listen, Eva, I know you’re pissed that Daphne and Evan stole a lot of time from your own plots, but hate me, not Evan! Besides, he’s a 2 year old.

Screenshot-3209

Aw, Eva decided to change her attitude.

Screenshot-3213

Screenshot-3218

And apparently, that’s the only picture I have of Evan. So… yeah.

Will Evan resent his Mom for her lack of parenting skills? Will Evan continue to contact his father? Will Eva make an appearance for more than a few pictures?

  1. Great chapter!

    Yay for Eva getting a boyfriend (Btw do you know where you got her green and black stripped shirt?)! Lol Daphne's such an awful parent and an alcoholic! 'But she knows how to trade the bottle of Jack for a baby bottle, so she’s getting better' LOL xD! Good to know that Daria's a good parent though.

  2. I got it sometime early last year from TSR. Here's the URL: http://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/912102.

    Yeah, I guess the good parenting gene isn't 100 percent in the Timbersons. :P
