Last chapter, Sauda woohooed with Donnovan, or Donny, as she prefers to call him. This eventually resulted in a pair of twins (YES, my wishacy lives to see another generation!), Vlad and Barbara. Interesting name choices courtesy of the randomizer at behindthename.com.
Now that Sauda is officially a single mother who has had no interaction with her baby daddy in days, what will happen? She has the wish to get married, and in fact that may be a necessity considering Sauda's utter lack of mothering skills.
For example, witness this moment, shortly after Sauda returns from the hospital with her newborn babies.
Vlad: WAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!
Fail, Sauda, just fail. Mothering tip #1: Don't leave your newborn baby crying on the floor.
Sauda: I'm already holding this one! I can't hold both the little twerps at once, I haven't been coded to that yet!
Unfortunately, she has a point. This is why being a sim single mother of twins is probably not such a good idea.
After putting Barbara to bed, Sauda finally decides to pick poor Vlad up off of the floor.
Sauda: Ugh, how do I know when he's done?
Sauda is very lucky she's not in Sims Medieval. I don't think she'd like the breast feeding so much. In fact, she's lucky all the bottles are basically pre-made for her. She doesn't even have to walk to the fridge to get one!
Also, look at the general mess of Sauda's house. Why, why, WHY can't Sauda roll the wish to hire a maid? Let's all cross our fingers and pray one of these twins gains the neat trait and keeps the house clean.
Sauda heads to the nursery, puts Vlad in his crib, and then:
Sauda: GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!
Wow, they haven't even done anything heinous yet, like keep Sauda up all night or effectively prevent her from leaving the house. It's barely been any time. I think she might go even more insane, if that's possible.
Sauda, not by the window! The neighbors are going to see! New mothers are NOT supposed to be trying to choke themselves to death. Well, really no one's supposed to be doing that, but still.
Oh great, just great! No sooner has Sauda actually gone to bed, when this darn burglar starts creeping up to her house.
Seriously, burglar? SERIOUSLY? Have you SEEN Sauda's house? It by far the tiniest, ugliest house in Lucky Palms (including those ones near the dried up lake thing on the poor side of town), and you can bet she has nothing of value inside of it.
Sauda: Why do I feel like I'm about to be robbed?
Well, at least she's not a heavy sleeper!
Yo, guy in the background! You see that sim creeping very sneakily towards the house, obviously dressed like a burglar? Call the police!
But I forgot, didn't I? Sauda IS a police officer! Easy to forget sometimes, because she's so nutty.
That burglar is cracking her knuckles, not knowing what's about to hit her.
Sauda: Hey, you in the mask! Are you trying to break in and steal some of my cruddy, low-quality items?
Burglar: N-no, of c-course not...
I guess she isn't confronted about her stealing problem very often.
Go Sauda!! You kick some burglar butt!
Sauda: Don't you ever come back to steal from my house again! The objects may be dirty and cheap, but they're MINE! And you tell the fairies that put you up to this that I will get them for this!
Burglar: OWWWW.
No pity for you.
Burglar: She's strong and crazy! I'm getting out of here!
Good idea, burglar. Prolonged exposure to Sauda usually results in personality shifts, crazy thoughts, and an extreme dislike for fairies.
Later on, Sauda soothes Barbara.
Sauda: Shhh, it's okay, mean burglar lady is all gone.
Sauda is also going to give Barbara nightmares from holding her wearing the pink monstrosity formalwear.
The next morning, Sauda gets back to work on her art. She should feel very lucky that I don't have Seasons. I don't think she'd very much enjoy working outside in the middle of rain or snow.
Sauda: Should I call Donny?
She hasn't talked to him since the brief moment when he magically showed up at the hospital to carry one of the twins home, and then immediately ran the heck away.
But since Sauda has that wish to get married, and Donnovan is currently her best (as in, only) option for marriage, she probably should make some contact with him.
Sauda: He's busy! UURRGGGHHHH!
She looks about ready to punch him. Maybe she should've actually told him when she got pregnant, instead of hiding away in the house and springing it on him right when he became a father. Maybe then he'd actually talk to her.
Sauda: *vomit*
Okay, I know she can't be pregnant this time around, unless immaculate conception exists in the sim world. Probably she's throwing up from the grossness that is her kitchen. This is a wake up call to clean, Sauda!
After finally getting Donnovan to agree to hang out, Sauda tracks him down right near the supermarket.
Sauda: So, after we woohooed I got pregnant and I kinda forgot to tell you. Thanks for the time off of work though. Your kids are named Barbara and Vlad.
Donnovan: No problem, it wasn't a big deal. Thanks for letting me know now.
This has to be the least dramatic "you're my baby daddy" confession ever. Especially since they both ignored each other forever and Donnovan refused to hang out with her for days.
Soon they're giggling and flirting just like usual.
Random Townie: Whooaaaa.
Why are random townies always nearby, awkwardly watching them. I swear, this town has an eavesdropping issue.
Donnovan: We should hang out again soon!
Well, at least things are pretty much back to normal. Let's see if Sauda can reconnect with him enough to pop the question.
The next day, Sauda rolls the wish to throw a birthday party for Vlad. I guess to make up for the fact that she left him on the floor for so long. And then, after she calls to schedule the party...
She decides to clean! YES YES YES!
You keep that up, clean the whole kitchen!
Veeeery good! I guess even Sauda has some shame, and doesn't want the guests to see her kitchen all nasty.
Hey, what's he doing here? He don't even know Sauda! I promise, she invited very few people (she doesn't exactly have a million friends) and he is NOT one of them!
Party Crasher: BOOOO! You're no good at cleaning!
Wow, he crashes the party and then he's completely rude too? He is so not getting a piece of cake!
The other, real guests start arriving. Darren, who is somehow actually friends with Sauda (despite a whole lot of terrible conversations) makes an appearance.
Ezekiel, the guy Sauda played tag with that one time, decides to come by as well. I almost didn't recognize him in his formal clothes!
Ezekiel: Haha, this house is hilarious!
Hey, no making fun of the ugly decor and furniture!
Party crasher dude makes himself useful by playing Sauda's guitar and providing some entertainment.
Another one of Sauda's acquaintances who actually bothered to show up decides to do some dancing.
At last, it's time for the birthday boy to grow up. His poor twin sister is going to have to wait another few hours before she automatically has her birthday.
AWWWW, Vlad is cute! He definitely has his dad's hair.
Here he is after Sauda got through with him. Gotta love the pink onesie. Wear it with pride, Vlad.
Looks like Sauda didn't do quite a good enough job cleaning. Either that or the house is so ugly it makes him want to vomit.
Hey, look who decided to show up! It's Taj!
Of course Donnovan, Vlad's father, didn't grace us with his presence. So typical!
Aww, now poor Barbara is the neglected child, having her birthday on the floor.
And she grows up!
Here's Barbara after the Sauda makeover. Sauda must be so sad that neither child got her hair. Not sure whose hair Barbara got. But in my opinion, she's absolutely adorable!
Well, the babies are now toddlers. Is there even a miniscule chance that Sauda will be able to teach them how to walk, talk, and go potty? One can hope and pray!
Sauda doesn't seem to have made much progress in getting Donnovan to marry her, but who knows how these things work for insane sims like her?
I hope you all enjoyed this update! Remember to comment or post on my forums thread. I always love to hear from you guys :)
