As usual, I've taken lots of screenshots that are totally irrelevant to the storyline, but I want to share them anyways--so here's a sampling of what's been going on in my game the last few days:
For those of you who didn't see me post this on twitter--yeaaah, Margo sure knows how to pick spots to do her homework.
Okay, much better spot. Lil definitely enjoys the role of Big Sister, too, and helps her out with her homework quite a bit.
... Not that it really seems to be helping much.
Margo's also taken to the habit of carrying around her teddy a lot--which, goes by the name of Pixie.
Also, I am *really* in love with these two as a mother/daughter pair. It is unbelievable the amount of wants these two throw out for each other, not to mention the fact that they're just absolutely freakin' adorable.
I threw a party for Brad's birthday and invited a few choice people I wanted to improve relations with--in the story things'll go a little bit differently--and of course, Party Animal Lamont decided to serve up the entertainment. First time I've seen someone tell a ghost story autonomously, I thought that was cute. ^^
Meanwhile, though, Phillip apparently was using a pick up line on Meredith. I know she's cute for an elder, but dude. Your wife? Silly man!
Uuuggggh, the obligitory candle-blowing shot. (Though, I actually get an insane amount of happy feelings looking at this pic--probably because it's my Bradley-kins. T_T)
I hate it when it resets the hair like that--but man, does he look like Jeb or what.
"Oh god oh god oh god, how did you convince me to come up in this treeeeee..."
"La la laaaaaaa!"
They finally came out with a solution to get the outdoor lighting tweak mod to work with Twinbrook, and so I decided to give it a whirl to see how I felt about using it on my main hood, and I have to say--it is pretty darn sexy.
I don't think I'll leave it installed ALL the time, because the same orange sunset every night could get a little irritating, but I like the other additions with it quite a bit.
In contrast, here's sunrise--I love how you can see the shadow of the treehouse on the side of the house, there's something oddly adorable about it.
Yeah yeah, I left all the party decorations up... Still. Cool shadows are cool. ^^
Alright so this might be a little morbid, but I sent Brad to the cemetery to get some vampire fish and when sunset hit, I really started to notice how beautiful Twinbrook's graveyard is, so I decided to take a few shots to show that + the pretty sunset colors from the mod.
Yep, Farah's statue is still standing and admiring itself.
One of these days, I'm going to write a short about her early days just so you all can see what a narcissitic biyotch she was. ;D
In contrast, Emerald's tomb, which y'all got to see quite a lot of in Season 4. It's started to get a tad overgrown, now; all the remaining Greenwoods have moved away, leaving Brad as the only person left in Twinbrook who would regularly visit her grave--but, he's left it in peace for a long time, now. I still occasionally like to sit and look myself, though, because as mundane a picture as this is, I miss Em sometimes, too.
I didn't set this shot up at all--it happened totally randomly--but it's incredibly applicable to what's going to happen over the course of this storyline, so I thought I'd share it with you. All backstory is good backstory!
That is all--but I leave you with this little morsel:
Giggity giggity.
