Aurora: your eyes are teary, everything’s alright?
Arabella: *nods* I just can't believe you became an adult so fast.
Aurora: I'll always be your baby, no matter what.
Arabella: I know that. Auri... your father and I, we’ve been wanting to ask you something for a few days. Have you decided what are you gonna do after your birthday?
Aurora: I'm not sure yet, mami.
Arabella: okay my love, try to sleep now. You still have to go to school one more time.
Aurora: mhm, but I'm gonna copy Luc's homework first.
Aurora: it was perfect, mami. We had so much fun, we swam a lot and we also spent some time at the bonfire, it was a short day! I guess time flies when you're having fun.
Arabella: I think that’s true. How are things going between you and Lucy?
Aurora: ...good.
Arabella: *smiles* "good"? That's all you're gonna tell me?
Aurora: why do I have a bad feeling about this conversation?
Arabella: *laughs* I'm your mother, I need to know things! And you're not a little girl anymore, Auri, we can't avoid the woohoo talk forever.
Aurora: oh Plumbob... I guess I can’t escape this time?
Arabella: nope.
Aurora: *sighs* okay, but first promise me that you're not gonna give me TMI about you and dad, mami. Please, I'm begging you, don't do that.
I'll be the spark, if you'll be the flame
Start a reaction that can't be contained
Balance your pH by sharing my base
I'll be your star, if you'll be my space
'Cause you're like that angle, A-cute and you're smart
Your labcoat and goggles go straight to my heart
Except that's a lie, cause the heart doesn't feel
When it comes to love the brain seals the deal
Aurora: something just clicked inside my head. This morning, when we met Nina, you told me she was "the other love" of your life...
Lucy: *smiles* there she is, my slow Scarecrow. Yeah, my sis is one, you are the other one. I only have two and I'm pretty sure it's more than enough.
Aurora: we should have invited her to come with us.
Lucy: she had things to do, first she needs to settle down. You saw how strict Mrs. Smith can be, she knows how to take care of kids like us but there are rules we have to obey. Nina moved in to the residence yesterday night, so... she has to adapt first.
Aurora: where was she living before?
Lucy: at the residence where I stayed when I was a kid. Once you finish elementary you have to move here, so you can go to high school. I visited her there every day since we were apart. Sometimes I even skipped classes, I think that's why you thought I was new.
Aurora: yeah, that misterious girl who popped out of nothing.
Lucy: *laughs* pretty much. Now that she's here I feel better. I know that Alexia, I mean Mrs. Smith, will be a good influence. She's like a mother to me, more than like my actual mother... *sighs* but that's another story.
Aurora: *nods* the important part is that you and Nina are together again.
Lucy: but not for long, princess.
Aurora: why?
Lucy: I... I'll tell you later, okay? Let's talk about a more important thing... what are you gonna do for your birthday?
My head is stuck in the clouds
She begs me to come down
Says “Boy quit foolin’ around”
I told her “I love the view from up here
The warm sun and wind in my ear
We’ll watch the world from above
As it turns to the rhythm of love”
Tianna: please, don't yawn.
Lucas: don't worry, I've learnt from my mistakes.
Tianna: everything's alright? You look tense.
Lucas: *nods* I'm just thinking.
Tianna: one of your crazy inventions is taking shape?
Lucas: *half smiles* not this time. Actually, I was thinking about you. Tianna, I... I wanna ask you something.
He took a deep breath as her eyes rested on him.
Lucas: I have no experience, I don't know if I'm going too fast or too slow or if I'm doing something wrong. I mean, when you're around it's kinda hard for me to think of anything else but you. It’s kinda hard to think, really.
Tianna smiled, then he continued...
Lucas: I’ve been listing the pros and cons in my head before speaking to you. Don’t laugh and listen... please. I only see one thing listed in the cons column... being this a negative answer, from you. I feel confident today, I believe the odds are in my favor *smiles* so, what I wanted to ask you is... would you consider being my girlfriend?
Mateo: I mean, I guess it doesn't matter... I don't want to be your friend anymore.
Janet: oh Mat, you’re breaking my heart.
Mateo: come on Jan, don’t play games with me. You know what I'm talking about. I like you. I... I wanna go out with you.
Janet: so sweet *smiles* I guess you know that I like you too, but Mat, my dad...
Mateo: *giggles* I know, uncle Chan will kill me... but if you give me a chance it’ll be worth it.
Janet: are you willing to call him and ask for permission?
Mateo: sure, I'll also text Luc and Auri. I was thinking, maybe we can go somewhere together, so your dad is not that mad at me... do you wanna go to the bluffs?
(Meanwhile at home, things are not going as planned.)
Mateo: I swear, this... has never happened to me before.
Janet: *smiles* I believe you.
Mateo: last time I tried it worked fine, I don't understand.
Janet: it's okay Mat, don’t worry. I’ve heard that, sometimes, BattleStations stop working for no reason. We can do something else, or I'll go home if my presence is no longer required.
Mateo: why would you say something like that? I don't want you to leave. Took me forever to find a moment alone with you, I'm not gonna let you go so easily. Actually I think this is the first time that we can talk without interruptions, and we have to clarify a few things.
Janet: like what?
Mateo: sometimes I feel like you're not my friend anymore, Jan. You're avoiding me...
Janet: “I have been -and always shall be- your friend.”
Mateo: are those your words, or is Leonard Nimoy speaking? Tell me you’re not a fan too, please...
Lucas: I am impressed, actually. According to the sources we reviewed it is possible that the sea monster exists. I like to be cautious anyway, so I'll accept it just as it is, a possibility. If I see it with my own eyes, then... maybe I'll consider changing my mind.
Tianna: I've shown you the evidence, everything gathered from reliable sources. You should be convinced by now, but you're not. You and your logical mind, both so hard to please...
Lucas: I’m not hard to please, I just want to be wise. "Logic is the beginning of wisdom, not the end."

@zx-ta tagged me, thank you love <3
Answers are under the cut, I’m not tagging anyone this time!
1. Do you “motherlode”?
Nope! I don’t use any money cheats.
2. Your favorite life stage?
Young adults, teens are fun to play too!
3. Your favorite season to play with?
*Sobs uncontrollably* Spring, without a doubt. I love rain, I need rain in my game right now!
4. Do your sims share some common points?
They’re all crazy! I’m not sure if that counts? xD
5. Do you have celebrities in your game?
When I first started playing my legacy I wanted a best friend for Arabella, so I added Jessie J to the neighborhood, I named her Jessie Cornfield (instead of Cornish) because I thought it was hilarious to have a Scarecrow and a CornField as besties XD but then I changed my mind before I started posting here, and I went for Cassandra Goth as best friend when I re-started :)
(Here is a pic of Jessie and Ara)
6. Would you like EA to make some commercial SP again (like Ikea SP or H&M SP for TS2)?
Yes! I love IKEA stuff.
7. Besides the sims, do you play to other video games? What is your favorite game?
I used to play a mmorpg with my ex and some friends a few years ago, I don’t play it anymore for obvious reasons, lol. The only thing I “play” besides the sims is a mobile game called Sky Garden. It’s uber cute, I always liked farm games!
8. What do you think of our fandom?
Sometimes I love to be a part of it, sometimes I feel ashamed.Too much drama.
9. How much time do you spend on Tumblr everyday?
I don’t have much free time these days :/ so I’d say a few hours on weekends, and a few minutes during the week.
This is so sweet Nonny, thank you so much for being so nice with me. I'm glad you're enjoying this little adventure, I wish I knew who you are, though! Don't be afraid to talk to me off-anon, I don't bite, unless you have cookies in which case... I can't promise anything :D
@glitterysimmies Casondra <3 Thank you as always my dear, you're the sweetheart here :D it's very easy to be helpful and nice with persons like you, ILY too!
Nina: exactly! Are you a fan? Tell me you’re a fan...
Aurora: *shakes head* nope, but he is one of my brother's obssessions, the rest of us... we suffer everytime he wants to watch one of his movies again.
Lucy: *giggles* I know from experience, some people knows how to be intense.
