I got this Haunted Mansion tattoo tonight! I'm really blown away by how amazing it turned out. *I'll resume with my sims after Easter.

Katrina saw some of her friends hanging out after school, and decided to hit Justin up about prom "I was wondering if you're... umm... if you've asked anyone...". "If it's about the prom, he's already going with someone.", Atlas butted in.

"Yep, sorry. My dance card is full.", Justin replied. "Right, of course. I was just thinking that maybe going with a friend might be a good idea.". Katrina felt silly, she knew he was most likely going with Atlas, but figured it was at least worth a shot.

Justin looked Atlas dead in the eye and asked, "Would you run away with me to a remote island if you could? Hypothetically speaking, of course.".

"Of course. I'd go to the ends of the SimEarth for you, hypothetically speaking.", Atlas smiled.

"It would be nice.", Justin pondered for a moment, "To just be free, and open about everything. No more sneaking around.".

"Everything will change when we start Uni.", Atlas assured him.

The Klines bought a pool table for their patio, and the boys spent much of Saturday playing. Justin made his winning shot, and proudly declared, "You owe me $50.".

"That's not fair, you can practice anytime.", Atlas protested.

"That's how you hustle. Now, cough it up.", Justin joked. "Hey, if we keep practicing like this, we could go downtown and make some serious cash.".

[ETA] I gave Atlas some new eyes, and I'm really happy that he can make expressions like this now.

Atlas went for a second helping of the omelettes, while Justin picked up his violin in the study. He doesn't play all that often, mostly when the mood strikes. Today was a good day though, so he choose something light and fun.

"You should feel honored," Justin called over, "I usually don't play in front of anyone besides my parents." Atlas wandered over to watch, he had no idea he could even play like that. "What can't you do?".

Justin is a flirt, and likes to see how far he can push it while still staying under the radar from his parents.

"Oh, sure. Just take it all, why don't ya?", Atlas mused.

Cindy rolled her eyes, "It's exactly the same as the one that you're eating.". She thought this was silly, childish behavior.

"Kids these days.", Robert chuckled.

"We should get some some cool clothes, and go out like this some time.". Justin felt like a badass, and wanted to spring it on the world.

"I think I need a little more practice first.". Atlas took a deep breath, "You clearly have more more experience with this stuff.".

"Nonsense! You look fucking adorable. You're just going for a different look is all". Justin tried boosting his confidence, but he also meant every word.

Atlas headed toward the bed, "I think I'm going to call it a night.".

"You know, you really shouldn't go to bed with all that makeup on.".

"I know,", Atlas sighed, "I'm beat though.".

Justin admired their edgy makeovers, "Looking fierce, Atlas!".

The above shots were taken from my very first story update of The Higgs in December 2008. Has it really been that long?

Here's The Higgs now in 2022, after reinstalling my game several years later, and restarting with generation 2 as teens again (they were YA where I left off). I try to keep everything as close to the original as possible, so it's like I just pressed pause for awhile.

I don’t know who to tag, since I recently came back after a long hiatus. So consider yourself tagged, or say that I tagged you.

EVERY YEAR

[sogoshable]

Justin burst into the reading room after school, wildly waving a sheet of paper, "Check it out, mom!".

"What's this?", Cindy asked, "Something else for me to sign?".

"It's... it's my report card.", Justin pointed out, "I got an A+.". Expecting his mother to at least feign a little enthusiasm, Justin's proud moment was very anticlimactic.

"That's nice.", his mother muttered, as she headed for the hot tub.

*This was the first time in any of my games that Justin's mother, or either parent have actually been home to witness his A+, and she did kind of a half-hearted cheer and walked away.

Still plugging along on the Super6 Roadside Motel. I merged some of the rooms, and it's mostly furnished now, with the exception of the front office/check-in. Average sized rooms for a mid-century era motel, and most units have kitchenettes - this isn't luxury lodging by any means though.

I think this cereal is a little too organic.

I'm building a roadside motel. I haven't quite figured out the layout for the rooms just yet. Still working on the building itself and the grounds.

I also made this little diner today - The Cove Family Dining. I don't have many fun places in Belladonna Cove to go to, especially for teens, so this is something that everyone could enjoy.

*Again, sorry for the small pics. I used the in-game camera, and forgot to change the settings.
