New Storyline: The Broke's Year 1 - N021 Genderswapped

Edit 20200723: First Belle was played as a child born in 94, but to let her have more chance to have a relationship with Marcus Burb, her age was changed to toddler born in 97.

I'm still playing the Genderswapped Uberhood by sushigal007 at Modthesims. The storylines of the families is still the same as the regular storylines so I'm not going to put that on my blog, but I'll tell their future storylines I have in mind. It appears I play a slightly different storyline because of the genderswap.
I also have put up a realistic economical and aging system which requires some Essential Mods which can be found here: http://s2idownloads.blogspot.be/p/the-essentials.html
The essentials still need to be updated once in a while. As I go on playing I notice more and more essentials and there are still many TS2 creators who create new (essential to me) mods.

The Broke's Year 1
The most important event of 2001 (=Year 1) for the Broke's is of course the birth of baby Ben. His eldest sister Dusty will take care of him as his other sister, Belle, is too young and his father has to focus on his career to bring in some money.

At the same time Brandon started a relationship with Darrell. He thinks she would take great care of his children as he can be a new father to Diara.

Everything goes great between Dusty and Angel Pleasant. As between Brandon and Darrell Dreamer. They have been talking about moving in together in one big house so the 4 teens (Dusty, Angel, Lucifer and Diara) live together too in preperation of them living together in college, but it's the question if that's a good idea as the boys have to patch up between eachother and their parents.

Belle is doing great in school as a child. Pre-school was worth its money. Hopefully she thinks of moving in with a whole new family as a great idea. After all she won't be the center of attention as much as she is now. But baby Ben will be happy with such a big family. He's the only one not ever known the love of a mother. With Darrell, Dusty, Belle and Ben can have a mother again and Diara can have a father.

So will they all move in together with Angel and Lucifer as well or will the teens live apart already like they will in college or will the boys decide to stay at home until college to patch things further with their family first?
Will Belle and Ben grow up happily in this new family situation or is Brandon making the wrong choice moving on in a new relationship quite soon after his wife died?
And is Darrell actually ready to move on after her husband died?

New Storyline: The Pleasant's Year 1 - N021 Genderswapped

It's not that I have much time to play because of my job, household (short: RL), but posting about the life of my simsfamilies on my blog is a motivation to create time for it as I want to have a blogpost a day.

The Pleasant's Year 1
The boys decided it's time to get a long a bit. It's Winter, there's snow outside and sims are never to old to make a snowman. So the teens build one together. It goes really well, but the result... Lucifer influence was the biggest probably:

Things are going well between Dusty and Angel. Also Diara and Lucifer are doing fine. As well as Diara's and Dusty's mother and father. As things aren't going excelent in the Pleasant family, maybe all the couples should live together. But what will Angel's and Lucifer's parents say about that?

This year the twins turned 16. To celebrate this Gary-Stu and Danielle spent $5,000 to finally redecorate Angel's room as it was still the wallpaper and floor from the previous owner Angela Pleasant (no related). Lucifer didn't want the redecoration so he put the money in his pink piggy bank (no he's (probably) not gay).

Meantime Danielle gave up her affair with the housekeeper. They are still friends though (needed for her job). She wants to focus on Gary-Stu again and hopes that as things are getting better in her marriage it also will between her and the boys.

Gary-Stu is happy his marriage is on the better hand, but still he is a bit in a midlife crisis. Luckily for him his wife made enough money to give him this as a present: Not bad as a kiss-offer, don't you think?

As well as his parents, Angel wants to patch things up with his brother and get him on the right track again so they can go to college together (and keep an eye on him there too).

Angel is now in the afternoon class Math and hopes this will motivate Lucifer rather than making him jealous. Angel's good influence works. Lucifer changed school (actually he changed it too vacation so he can follow a school in a teen career http://s2idownloads.blogspot.be/2018/03/new-teen-career-aso-economics-math.html ) and now follows Economics-Math. So now he has good changes in college and having more than 1 scholarship as he's in level 3 already and almost maxed out his logic.

And more good news. It seems like the boys are really getting along now and are becoming friends:

The question now is: Will it stay this way for the Pleasant's and what with the chance the twins will live together with their girlfriends and their mother and father? (More about this in The Broke's Year 1 and The Dreamer's Year 1 coming soon)

New Storyline: Meet the Pleasant's - N021 Genderswapped

After years of not active playing (just creating and testing), I started to play again. But not with the Maxis' Pleasantview. But with the Genderswapped Uberhood by sushigal007 at Modthesims. The storylines of the families is still the same as the regular storylines so I'm not going to put that on my blog, but I'll tell their future storylines I have in mind. It appears I play a slightly different storyline because of the genderswap.
I also have put up a realistic economical and aging system which requires some Essential Mods which can be found here: http://s2idownloads.blogspot.be/p/the-essentials.html

On my blog I'll introduce you to the Genderswapped Pleasantview families I play with. I just play with about 10 families. I think that's more than enough when you know adulthood alone is in my realistic aging system 552 days.


Meet the Pleasant's
It's a bit weird that now the mother of the family has an affair with the lady housekeeper. But I'm open-minded so why not a lesbian loveaffair in my game.

These are Danielle, Gary-Stu and the twin boys Angel and Lucifer.
Gary-Stu goes up into his work, but he realises he has to spend more time with his wife. Danielle still loves Gary-Stu, but she's also interested in the cute housekeeper. Will she choose for a total new adventure with a woman or will she choose for her family?

Maybe the relationship between the twin boys being so bad lately is one of the reasons she's so much in doubt. She wants to leave to get away from the fighting, but on the other hand she needs to stay if she want them to patch things up before they go to college.

Speaking of college, Angel is trying very hard in school while Lucifer's grades are getting worse. Angel really wants to get along with Lucifer and won't stop trying to patch things up and to get him a place in college too. He has a lot of patience with Lucifer, but will that be enough? 'Cause sometimes enough's enough!

Lucifer knows his family loves him and he's not really on the right track, but he can't help it. It's like he's in a spiral downwards and can't go up. But being a bad ass guy brings him luck with the ladies. So is it really that bad?
