Chapter 1.9

Hello! Welcome back to the Lockwood’s! We’re transitioning to Emily’s reign and I have an apartment downloaded from the gallery, but it’s really expensive. So we need to earn a lot of money before we can afford it and move…

So Emily jumps right on the painting!

And Pierce and Suki get to writing.

Book royalties can be VERY lucrative.

And we only have one easel…

Suki’s very first book was apparently nominated for an award.

Help me to remember to go to this

This is a GREAT place to nap, Rhea

*flashback to Mojo saying book royalties can be lucrative*

Emily got the early graduation pop-up, and I TOTALLY said yes! This will give us so much more time for painting!

Rhea likes to hang out with Pierce while he’s writing his books

It’s cute

Oh and now Pierce is nominated for an award.

Now we have to go, just to see who’s better, Pierce or Suki

lol Suki is a maker now because of all the writing

Pierce has burnout and doesn’t want to do “creative” things, so we’re going to do some hacking in the meantime

I don’t think I’ve ever seen this whim before… that’s interesting. Too bad Suki is HAPPY lol the exact opposite

…………….Now Pierce won’t do anything because he’s too tense. Boo

So plan C is to have him cook a bunch of crap and I use the handy dandy money trashcan

each of those plates is worth 50 simonleons. That’s like $450 for an 8 serving meal lol

Hey look! It’s Emily’s first masterpiece!

Oh no! Rhea!

I’m not surprised though… The kitties are getting the short end of this money making chapter…

Oh weird. We’re not doing anything with music so this wasn’t something that I was expecting

Rook has taken Rhea’s spot while she’s away

GORDON!

Who invited you!?

Rhea’s back!

Yay!

Emily is officially a Young Adult! We’re still about 40K short of affording the apartment (it’s expensive…… whoops) So we’re just going to keep on making the money for the rest of this chapter and officially get started on Emily’s generation in the next chapter.

DAMN IT PIERCE! We don’t have time for a break!

Okay really? Rook that is not a great spot to be. Especially when Suki has a KNIFE

Ummmm… I don’t really care about how much interest Octavia has earned.

Look at all the food just waiting to earn me money

OoooOOOOoooO Emily’s an art lover now!

fun!

Oh nooooo! Rook is an elder kitty now!

Um… sure. I didn’t know that you two knew each other

Nice. She came over and broke our sink.

Rude

Yeah! You get her, Rhea! She deserves it!

oooooooh! Steamy!

And now Suki is ambitious! Woo it’s the power of writing!

Oh crap. I forgot that Suki is a vegetarian….

noooooooo! This is the opposite of what we’re trying to do!

Now I have to make up an extra 1000 simoleons!

Rude

RIP clone Gemma from my not-so-berry

The computers keep breaking and now Pierce likes handiness lol

Rhea catches up to Rook and becomes and elder kitty

Well, that’s it. $75,000 in 5 days! We can officially move to San Myshuno!

Woo! Moving!

Welcome to your new home, Lockwood’s!

Oh… Rhea looks unsure about this lol

Oh, we have laundry now… That’s fun lol

And now that we’ve moved to the big city, it’s time to get a city living job!

So we joined the Social Media career. I think we’ll join the Public Relations branch. She looks like she’ll be good in PR lol

And we got an immediate work assignment.

Off to a bar we go, I guess

There wasn’t even a bartender when we got there

How do you just have a bar with no bartender?

Gordon got a new job AND a new dog!

Mason (from my DITFT) is our neighbor! He’s here for the welcome wagon!

…are you good, bro?

Pierce decided to serenade Suki in the bathroom.

How romantic.

Suki… That’s like a new microwave. No one’s even used it. I don’t think it’s dirty

More serenading!? Really?!

Love is in the air!

Hey look! Preggers Gordon came over!

Someone left food on the floor for the cats.

It’s a good thing that Rhea knows better

Oh nice! Now we’re clumsy

Got this notification before getting dinner, but Gordon had his baby! Welcome to the family, Nathaniel!

HIS NAME WAS SNAKE?! HOW DID I NOT KNOW HE EXISTED!

Why don’t I find anyone with fun names likes that when I’m actually spouse hunting?

Rude

Oh goody. More fun work place uniforms lol

Apparently this apartment comes with a maid.

An angry maid.

Interesting

Rhea’s sick again. I swear, Rook doesn’t get sick, but Rhea gets sick alllllll the time!

Hey look! Emily got a promotion on her first day of work!

At least she’s got a more cohesive work outfit now.

End of the rotation comes along and it’s time to move on. Enjoy your freedom, for now!

See ya next time!

Tootles!
