From the Hart: An OWBC - Interlude! [6th April 2021]

[Anne]

Ah, so much fun! I have to admit, I'd forgotten about everything that happened previously, but I was excited to see a new update! I love how you just let Strawberry do her thing instead of have her do the traditional heir thing.

[Sam]

Anne:
It is great fun to play I think that's kind of inevitable when I go so long between updates but I'm glad you enjoy the updates all the same. Hopefully it won't be long before the next one - I have half the pictures sorted already It seemed like the best solution for her, and it's definitely different to play!

Thanks for reading!!

[Sam]

I played a lot! So there's an update!

Enjoy!

[Little White Comet]

So happy to see you update again! I love reading your stuff not just because your good at writing but also because you use so much of the original game stuff that the cc you do use just blends in really nicely.

Spoiler:

Poor Strawberry though, the Heir who didn't want to be. All though I'm glad that you didn't force her to get married, my next heir is going through similar problems so I can relate. Oli is super cute, even if he's a spitting image of his father and I'm looking forward to seeing how bad apple Patrick deals with life. Let's hope though that the last baby has a bit more of Strawberry in them.
I remember reading your about your Plantsim quads on Tumblr so that threw me off a bit there, but I'm looking forward to seeing that part of the challenge. So many spare babies though! I personally just move the spares out and leave them alone, the thought of trying to keep all those families in line together gives me a headache XD
Can't wait for the next one!

[Sam]

Thank you, it's good to be back! Thank you so much for your kind words, I'm really happy with my TS2 style so I'm glad you appreciate it.

Spoiler:

She resists heirship every way possible I enjoyed finding ways round her unenthusiasm, it means the kids are all really unique! How are you going to approach the unenthusiastic heir? I love the kids, and can't wait to show you guys more of them!
Yeah, I actually played the Quad Pod mini-challenge last year! Luckily, I didn't share many of the pictures on tumblr, so there should still be some unseen content The family tree is insane at this point, it's gotten to be a bit overwhelming! The rotation is a little jumbled now, if I'm honest.

Thank you so much! I'm hoping to have more soon

[Sam]

How awkward that my last post on here contains the words "I'm hoping to have more soon"

Well, at least there's an update now? Enjoy!

[Sam]

I know I only posted an interlude yesterday, but today I come bearing an actual update - Part 3.4 is up now!

[mysterymusic7]

Yay more Harts! I always love your stories Sam.

Spoiler:

Mad Cat is awesome. Even if he's not the brightest bulb he did get your gnome back.
Strawberry..she's unique that's for sure. Don't you just love sims who say they want something then 10 seconds later are like no change me back. *snort*
I love little Patrick...he's a cutie and aww you need the stereo...i love the sims that will actually use the swimming pool. Seems like whenever I build them they are like never used.
Nettle was interesting.
And Onyx is always fun to watch yes indeed. Best animations ever.
Looking forward to more cute sims from you Sam. I swear you combine genetics so well...And your sims always have the best hair.

[Sam]

Hi Mystery! Nice to see you

Spoiler:

I was completely surprised when he somehow got the gnome??
She's a fun one, I haven't had a sim like Strawberry in a very long time! She never seems to know what she wants
Bless him! That swimming pool has literally been there for generations, Patrick's the first one to use it in ages! I think I put it in for the plantsims originally?
I like Nettle <3
Onyx is one of my favourite sims of all time just because he's so fun to watch!
Thank you so much! I think a lot of it is luck, and having far too much CC

Thanks for your comment! I hope to update soon!

Been binge reading the Harts lately, I love them all. All that big cute and much fun have gotten me through a rough month!

This is such a nice comment to receive I'm sorry you had a rough month, but I'm glad my little sims story could help in some way!

I haven't forgotten about this challenge, I was poking at an update the other day so close to the end now, I can't give up yet!

[Sam]

Posted a recap because I haven't updated in ages and this family is massive!

I'm hoping to have an actual update soon

[Sam]

Managed to get an update done! Enjoy!

[108sims]

I'm so excited to see them back!

Spoiler:

I love when sims are still shocked by the werewolf transformations and supernaturals in general when they've always been surrounded by them.

Ah the joys of having a bad apple and never getting them on a decent sleeping schedule.

Onyx is and always will be adorable.

Yes, wanting a sim to look nice means they're future spouse material.

I still think Craig is the cutest, even without a chin.

That just makes it look like a real family photo. No one is ever posing when they're supposed to.

I feel a little bad for Patrick. He looks so sad with Craig booing him.

Strawberry really just doesn't want to stay with one man for too long.

Craig and his constant booing! He's lucky he's cute.

[Sam]

108sims:
It's so nice to be playing them again!

Spoiler:

The kids have literally grown up with supernaturals how they're surprised is beyond me!

Patrick would much rather play the piano! He's the first bad apple I've had to wake up with the stereo!

He's one of my all-time favourites

Yup

Craig is adorable, I think he's my favourite looks-wise. His lack of a chin really cracks me up though

Very true!!

And yet he still wanted to play with him, so I guess there were no hard feelings?

She really doesn't!

He's really letting his mean side out

---

I know I only updated yesterday, but I wanted to get the heir poll up and running, so you get an update!

[peachy123uk]

Spoiler:

business can take such a long time to do. I have voted.

[108sims]

Spoiler:

I really love all the family pictures in the house!

Family reunions are so much fun.

I agree, twelve kiddos at once is a little much.

Craig is such a character.

It seems like nothing can keep Strawberry entertained too long. I don't think I'd ever get tired of being able to fly.

Mad Cat is lonely!

Poor Archie. Seems like a typical dog though. He probably wants people food.

'"What did you wish for, Craig?"

Hopefully a more defined chin' This made me laugh!

I think the sparkles make people happy maybe? Or maybe the clear up the weather?

Wow Patrick has some pent up anger issues.

Strawberry really has no issues with PDA!

A strange business, but it got you results all the same.

[Sam]

peachy123uk:

Spoiler:

It feels like forever sometimes!! Thanks for voting

108sims:

Spoiler:

It's nice having them around, although I feel like there's more family pictures than art & decor now!

It's so nice seeing them all interacting together!

Oh definitely

I really like Craig!

Nothing seems to impress Strawberry! I wouldn't get bored of flying either!

I think so too, don't worry, I did something about it

That must be it, because it seems he rarely eats the dog food!

His wish was granted

Could be either! I should really look it up.

He does! All of a sudden, he's so angry!

She's shameless

Finally got to rank 10, even if the methods were questionable!

----

Thanks guys!
There's a new chapter up, and still a day left to vote in the heir poll!

[peachy123uk]

Spoiler:

I have voted. I was thinking that the Diva wasn't allowed maybe it was another challenge (it was the trailer park challenge) College shoud be fun

[108sims]

Spoiler:

Patrick would be a fun one to play as heir even if it'd just be through college.

Poor Gina. Craig just look so unimpressed.

I was just about to say it seems like Oli is the forgotten child.

I feel like Patrick probably doesn't have very many nice points either based on the last couple of chapters at least.

Strawberry is so indecisive!

Craig probably got fired for spending most of his time flirting instead of working.

I can't believe Strawberry is an elder!

Awe Mad Cat found love.

Romance sims might not want to settle down, but that doesn't mean they can't enjoy other people's kids!

I didn't realize that babies adopted didn't have just standard face templates.

Good luck with having all three boys at uni!
