[sim-novels]

Ruby doesn't really care that Bronson hates her and 'broke up' with her. She can just use her vampire magic to get him to do as she desires.

[sim-novels]

Bronson at home, wondering why he's the one teaching Jade how to go potty while his cheating vampire girlfriend was out all night woohooing Matthew Hamming in an elevator...

He did manage to land a job in the film career, so he can start on his focus at least.

• Join the Film Career +0.5 point

[sim-novels]

Some risky woohoo happened inside the Banzai elevator that evening... with Matthew and Ruby as the culprits! Being so public about her cheating, it was no surprise that the paparazzi called onto it and she was caught. Bronson got the news as well and he's not happy... it'll be hard work to get him to like her again. And they had just moved in together!

Ruby did manage to pay off the paparazzi so that she at least won't have to deal with the public disgrace.

[sim-novels]

On Opal's first night as a young adult, Ruby took her to the Banzai Lounge. But since Opal isn't a celebrity, she had to sneak her way in. When she'd finally made it, Ruby had already gotten herself a drink and found her old flame Matthew Hamming at the bar.

While Ruby got busy rekindling the spark between her and the handsome idol, Opal got herself caught almost immediately and was kicked out of the bar by the bouncer. Not a very successful night for her... but at least Ruby got some plasma and something more from Matthew.

(It was actually Ruby who ratted out Opal... how rude!)

[sim-novels]

Ruby asked Bronson if he wants to move in with her, and Bronson said yes. That makes him officially a part of the family, which means he gets to earn points for the legacy. His focus will be d. Famous Monsters [FilmStar] 🌟. Whether he'll be very successful is another matter entirely...

Sim Novels: expanding with Paralives Novels!

Made myself an extra blog for my paralives gameplay, to keep everything nicely separated. If you're interested in my paralives gameplay, please follow this blog!

Been having fun with the game, even though it's a really bugged out mess at the moment. I spent some hours playing with one para, but am currently playing a new save where I annihilated the entire town and made 14 of my own paras to start out with. Each of them are homeless, and they start as single-para household with 0 dimes. Having a lot of fun with this and will probably start posting about them soon!

In the meantime, here's my test para Meryl Belle making out with Sebastian.

[sim-novels]

Time for Opal to finally age up into a young adult! Ruby did not waste any time to offer to turn Opal so they can be vampire BFFs together. Opal seems to be pretty excited about the prospect of joining Ruby on her nightly adventures.

[sim-novels]

Bronson still can't believe he managed to have the hot vampire celebrity as his girlfriend. Ruby loves doting on him, because she enjoys the total devotion she gets from him in return.

[sim-novels]

Joanna is working hard to become Jade's favorite aunt.

[sim-novels]

After a long day and night full of adventure, Ruby fell into a deep vampiric slumber, dreaming of Bronson and his sweet plasma.

[sim-novels]

Ruby went to Eugi's for a drink, but it all tasted dull to her, so she called Bronson to come meet her there. He was quite honored to be a plasma donor to her, so Ruby took advantage and had her first real drink since becoming a vampire. Much better!

• Feed on a donor +0.5 point

[sim-novels]

Being a vampire, Ruby really wants to drink plasma from a sim. But there won't always be someone ready to donate some to her, so she stockpiled on plasma fruit so that she'll at least never grow thirsty.

[sim-novels]

Ruby noticed a change in her complexion and a glow in her eyes... her transformation was complete! She immediately told Opal about it, who was happy for her. Opal wants Ruby to make her a vampire too the moment she ages up, so the two can go hunt the town together for juicy plasma straight from the vein.

• Get Turned into a Vampire +1 point

[sim-novels]

Ruby attended graduation with her family and was given the Most Artistic award.

[sim-novels]

Time for Jade's first birthday. She's certainly got a lot of her dad's features, but her great-great-grandfather Christopher Steel's eyecolor has now officially made it all the way to generation five. Who knew that man would have such strong genes?

(Her hair was actually Ruby's dyed red, so I changed it back to Ruby's original haircolor which was the same as Emerald's.)

[sim-novels]

A celebrity needs a celebrity body, so Ruby hit the gym after Wogan went back home again. Though before she got much exercise in, she bumped into Bronson's mother, Renee Littler. Since Renee is also a celebrity, Ruby decided it couldn't hurt to befriend her. Especially if they were going to be family in the future. The two spent a good time talking instead of exercising, which was all captured by an eager paparazzi.

In the end, Ruby even asked Renee if it'd be okay if she married her son, and she got a positive response!

• Have Two Celebrity Friends +0.5 points (Matthew Hamming/Renee Littler)
