Cornwall Capp- round 2

 
This is the duplex that Cornwall, Regan and their son Horatio live in. They are on the left while Regan's brother Kent lives with his wife Bianca (Monty) in the other home.

Inheritance from Regan's father Consort has kicked in and increased the funds by almost 10K.

Poor Cornwall was so tired from his pregnancy that he passed out as he was watching Horatio be a big boy and use the potty.

Both Regan and her husband are Fortune Sims. Cornwall wished to earn 100K whilst Regan wants to become the Law. She brought her sister Goneril home after almost every shift which has improved their relationship immensely.

Cornwall is currently in the Education career and is a High School Teacher whilst Regan is a Legal Secretary in Law.

While the lot seemed pretty buggy it's nice that Uncle Kent called in at anytime to play with and talk to his nephew.

On Tuesday morning the end of what seemed like a very long pregnancy is almost over for Cornwall!

It's an alien!

Keeping with the English county names I called his daughter Devon. Poor Cornwall was so hungry he handed over Devon to Regan so he could stuff some spaghetti.

The day passed in such a blur that Regan was promoted to Legal Biller- no promotion for Cornwall but he was home in time to see his son become a child.

Horatio is happy and Devon can now have his crib. 

Cornwall left to go to the Stratford Strip so he could buy some electronics and clothing.

Everyone was happy with his choices and for Regan at least her colours were Autumnal.

On Wednesday Regan had a decision to make...

oops

She arrived home not in the best mood!

Cornwall then got a chance card straight after and chose to dress up,

hmmmm,

a demotion is a little less painful than being fired I suppose.

Wednesday wasn't a total bust as Devon turned toddler! She really has all the alien features and is super Neat, Active, Outgoing and Nice.

Horatio was making the most of the Autumn to skill away- their home is so small his table is in the garden. :D

On Thursday Regan found the law career again and will start as a Legal Biller.

Cornwall taught his daughter all her skills.

Cornwall was promoted to University Guest Lecturer and earned 25K so far.

Which is good as he had some very overdue bills to pay!

On Friday Regan was promoted to Paralegal.

The half siblings bond over a game.

and later enjoyed some fresh air at the activity table as Winter began.

Regan and Bianca buried their differences long ago and are firm friends.

On Saturday Horatio was given a toy oven and made himself a spectacular muffin for breakfast.

Devon had her childhood birthday!

Her and Horatio are already best friends.

Winter was in full force on the last day of the week.

As Regan celebrated a promotion to Personal Injury Attorney Cornwall had invited the Headmaster over as it was his dearest wish to see his children in Private Education.

The children got in and Cornwall was a happy Dad.

Late on Sunday night a burglar came and took several items from the apartment, an expensive painting and the computer chair. 

The police did catch the burglar but the family no longer felt safe...

and so the family immediately moved to a nice new house. 7 Chorus Court is their new address and we will see them settle in there for their next round.

Summary-

This lot seemed so buggy by the end of the week that I have also moved Bianca & family- we'll see them in their new place later this round.

Cornwall and Regan worked hard but for little reward it seems... Regan is pretty much back to where she started in her career for the week, maybe one level higher and she barely had a day off :D
A fun week though with the baby/toddler/kids. Amazing if you time it right you go from baby-kid in a week (and I do always grow them up as soon as is allowed!).

Consort Capp- Round 2

 
Here I am back in Veronaville, a little over 2 years to the date since I was last here at Capp Manor.

Upon opening the lot I found Hermia all burnt from whatever fate befell her over the course of the round, most likely struck by lightning sometime. 

Her sister Juliette is here of course- just leaving for her shift at the fast food restaurant.

They live in the Manor with their Grandfather Consort who raised them after their parents died along with their older brother Tybalt who is currently in college.

Consort dated Sunny Kody last round and this time invited her over to declare his love...

Well when you're Consorts' age you can't afford to hang around!

Hermia and Juliette are just out of shot and a bolt of lightning shot through the sky at the moment I snapped their wedding picture which also lit up Cleopatra the ghost. :D

Cleopatra had her own way of welcoming Sunny to the family!

Finally though the oldies got some time to themselves. ;) 
What a busy first day (Saturday in this house).

In the early hours of Sunday Juliette bagged some scholarships and left for Uni, waved off by her sister Hermia.

She's joined the dorm with her brother Tybalt, cousins Miranda and Hal and The Monty brothers.

As she was up early Hermia served breakfast and got to know Sunny.

Consort gave Hermia a gift for her backpack. I forget what it was. :D

Sunny has a LTW to be a Hall of Famer but has no Aspiration, which is strange. She found a job in Athletics.

Consort spent time while his new wife was at work chatting to his family members.

After work Sunny didn't quite make it to the house before a ghost scared her causing her to have a little accident.

In the early hours of Monday it was Hermia's turn to head to Uni. That's a proud Grandpa waving her off and I'm ignoring the ghost that has suddenly appeared in the house. :)

Hermia has joined a different place in Uni as her sisters' dorm was full (the Newson siblings are the 7th & 8th members of that dorm).

Meanwhile it was odd for Sunny to have no aspiration so as soon as she could she used the reward that assigned her Popularity. Her LTW didn't change.

Business Tycoon Consort always travels to work in style.

While he was gone Sunny realised her dream of hiring a Butler. "Colin Love at your service Ma'am".

A quick look through the dresser showed Sunny that there were no appropriate clothes for her.

She visited H&M Veronaville where she bought clothes and a phone as well as meeting some new neighbours.

Happy with her new choice of clothes Sunny spent the rest of the day doing chores.

Consort arrived home having earned 25K in total.

He'd just been tending to some shrubbery when Grimmy & The Hula's showed up.

Poor Sunny widowed after just two days of marriage.

Consort came good in the end and you can see how his relationships with his family had much improved since last time. He was 65 days old and as you see left monetary memories with at least 16 people. 

All alone now in this big Manor house (if you don't count the ghosts) Sunny threw herself into skilling for her job.

A good choice on a chance card gave her some free skills.

Her colleagues and passing neighbours rallied around to keep her company and she managed a promotion to Minor Leaguer on Tuesday.

On Wednesday after an uneventful day Consort's ghost came out and scared her.

Followed later by Anthony....

and Calpurnia! 

On Thursday after a double shift Sunny is a Starter. She had to sweep roaches but as the trash is standing I'm not sure where they came from.

On Friday Sunny is promoted to All Star. She earned the career reward and has bagged 10K. She turned around and greeted Jessie Pilferson (in the background) and they had a nice chat.

On Saturday Sunny talked with Colin Love some more.

She was invited Downtown and enjoyed some fun at the Sugar Cube Bowl. A quick scope saw her quite liking this chap...

But who is he?

Even once home she couldn't quite place him!

Summary-

I have no idea who that was... :D 
I'll have to check next time-so many Sims were struck by lightning from hot tubs over the course of the round it's hard to keep track.
Poor Sunny wasn't married to Consort for long but a little happiness in life is surely better than none at all.
I wonder if Tybalt, Juliette or Hermia will be back one day to reclaim Capp Manor?
The ghosts were out every night... the family tree is quite fun to check out- Anthony and Cleopatra were Contessa's maternal Grandparents (Contessa was Consort's first wife and was an original Capp- Consort took her name). 

Next up it's Cornwall Capp's round and then it will be Hermia in Uni (I will play Hal when I play Juliette as they are in the same dorm and Hal already had a full round before he joined Uni).
