The Forgotten Hollow Tinies: A Gothic WYD (COMPLETE)

Post by bookloverblue »

Image

Hey everyone - this is a Gothic, Goreyesque "Who's Your Daddy?" Sims 4 challenge. It's a mixture of challenge and plot-based storytelling.

[hr]
When Amelia Zara Livingstone has a brush with death, the Grim Reaper postpones the tragic event in exchange for her promise to fulfil a mission. It turns out conveying the souls of the dead is tough work, and he could use some helpers. 26, to be precise - 1 for each letter of the alphabet.

Grim charges Amelia with the task of romancing the men of the nearby towns, and giving birth to these 26 future Reapers within her remaining years. If she succeeds, she'll have the time of her afterlife. If not, then her eventual death will only be the start of a worse fate...


Prologue: A Fate Different Than Death

Part One: Beginning the Mission
Part Two: Baby Boom
Part Three: Flexing It, or, Agent Bandura Goes Undercover(s)

Interlude A - Mrs. Casper and Mr. Ridley

Part Four: The (Other) Spy Who Loved Me
Part Five: Skills Not Skulls

Interlude B - First Night on the Job

Part Six: Goth in More Ways Than One
Part Seven: Babies, Birthdays and Bedroom Plays

Interlude C - Mummy's Day Off

Part Eight: The Strangerville Experiment
Part Nine: Unlucky for Some (or, A Few Good Men)

Interlude D - The Tragic Tale of Agatha Casper

Part Ten: Romans, Vampires and Romantic Desires
Part Eleven: Fathers, Fangs and Fate Defiers
Part Twelve: Twenty is Plenty

Interlude E: Unexpected Delivery

Part Thirteen: The Final Countdown

FINALE: Happily Ever Afterlife

Updated 20/07/18 with a storytelling interlude.

Amelia makes the acquaintance of two neighbours: a stern, judgmental old woman, and a kindly young man with a flair for gardening.

Interlude A - Mrs. Casper and Mr. Ridley

I hope people are enjoying this - I'd really appreciate some feedback!

Updated 24/07/18.

After enjoying a very brief but productive liaison with a man from her "waiting list", Amelia bumps into a former paramour... but is far more interested in his best friend.

Part Four: The (Other) Spy Who Loved Me

(Strictly speaking, this is a commentary/challenge update, but it ended up including a bit of storytelling, because hey - it's me.)

Finally updated 25/05/2019! (Happy Towel Day, Glorious 25th May and Geek Pride Day!)

A new neighbourhood means new opportunities, and Amelia's eye is caught by the curio shop's rather cute owner...

Part Eight: The Strangerville Experiment

Author's Note: I'm really sorry I've not updated this in so long - I've been dealing with life and mental health stuff in recent weeks. I'm feeling a lot better now, though, and I'm trying to stay positive and motivated.
