[ADELINE]: Happy birthday Tills!

[MATILDA]: Oh, so you do remember how to FaceTime! A few more hours and you would have missed it, but what can I expect from a busy uni student such as yourself

[ADELINE]: Oh shut up you brat. I’m sorry I haven’t called, but I really have been super busy though. Classes have been… difficult

[ADELINE]: My literature class is by far the most interesting, but it’s obviously a lot of reading to keep up with

[ADELINE]: My other gen eds are simple enough, mainly just busy work. Biology is the worst though. Half of what our professor says goes in one ear and out the other

[ADELINE]: I swear, I’ve never felt more stupid than I have in that class. The professor is nice though, so I guess there’s that

[ADELINE]: And the guy who sits in front of me is sorta hot so…

[MATILDA]: Hold up! Hot guy? Why didn’t you start with him? Have you kissed him?

[ADELINE]: What? Tills, I haven’t even TALKED to the guy! I’m not kissing anybody!

[ADELINE]: Besides, I have other social priorities, like trying to figure out if my roommates actually like me and want to be my friend or if they’re just being nice. They keep saying they have my back and all that, but I don’t know if they’re just being polite

[MATILDA]: So they’re acting like… friends? You gotta stop overthinking Addie, you’re supposed to be having fun. You have a hot guy and new friends and the chance to just chill for the first time so get out of your own head, be friends with your roommates, and go kiss that hot guy!

[ADELINE]: It’s not that easy! I wish it were that simple to just turn it off! *sighs* I can try harder, I guess

[MATILDA]: No! Trying is the problem! I gotta go to bed, but keep me posted on biology boy, got it? And get out of your own head! Seriously!

[ADELINE]: Out of my own head… yeah. I can do this

[HARRISON]: I still can’t believe my babygirl is already off to university

[HARRISON]: You’re going to thrive here Addie, I just know it

[HARRISON]: I want you to have the time of your life here

[HARRISON]: But don’t forget you are still going to be queen someday

[HARRISON]: That means any stupid antics you get up to will follow you forever

[HARRISON]: There are eyes on you at all times

[ADELINE]: I know, Papa. I’m going to be careful, I promise

[HARRISON]: I know you will, but I’m still your father. I’m allowed to worry

[HARRISON]: Things weren’t as public back in my uni days. We didn’t have social media turning everyone into mini paparazzi machines making our lives-

[ADELINE]: Papa, I know!

[HARRISON]: Alright, alright. I’ve made sure all of your things are all set up in your dorm [ADELINE]: Oh, okay!

[ADELINE]: I think the other girls are already inside…

[HARRISON]: Are you ready? [ADELINE]: I think so… Why am I so nervous?

[HARRISON]: Everything is going to be fine. You’re going to do amazing ma belle princesse, but this is where I leave you

[ADELINE]: I love you, Papa

[HARRISON]: I love you more sweet girl

[ADELINE]: Are you guys sure this is really necessary? Won’t we meet plenty of people in our classes?

[PEYTON]: Yeah sure, but this way we can meet people who AREN’T just in our classes

[MCKENNA]: Exactly! I doubt I’m gonna meet many hot guys in fashion design classes. At least, not the ones who would actually be interested in me… [PEYTON]: Maybe you’ll meet someone for ME there though

[ADELINE]: I guess it’s not quite as crowded as I thought it would be. I just don’t want to… attract too much attention

[PEYTON]: Addie, I don’t think the whole “princess” thing is gonna be as big of a deal as you think it is

[ADELINE]: Oh! I wasn’t, I mean I didn’t… I don’t think-

[LYLA]: Girl chill, Peyton’s right. I don’t think people are gonna give a shit that you’re a queen-to-be. It’s cool, don’t get me wrong, but people probably won’t even recognize you as much as you think they will

[PEYTON]: And if they do, we’ve got your back, remember?

[LYLA]: Yeah, we keep the crazy people away from you, you get your pick of hot guys who DO know who you are, and then you send the best rejects to me and Mckenna. Symbiotic relationship and all that shit

[MCKENNA]: Whilst I’m perfectly capable of getting guys on my own, I’m not too proud to refuse a hot guy just because my friend didn’t want him [ADELINE]: Is it bad that this is actually comforting me?

[MCKENNA]: Seriously though, they’re right. Everyone is too obsessed with themselves to care about you. Wait, that came out wrong again-

[LYLA]: We seriously need to work on your people skills Mckenna… [ADELINE]: *laughing* No, I get what you mean. I get to be just another student while I’m here

[LYLA]: Addie? Where you at? [ADELINE]: In here!

[PEYTON]: You’re still studying? [LYLA]: Are you sure you don’t wanna take a break and come with us?

[ADELINE]: Oh, yeah I’m sure. This biology test is gonna be rough enough as it is, I need to study as much as I can. You guys have fun though!

[LYLA]: All work no play makes Addie a dull girl [MCKENNA]: It’s at one of the frat houses you know… Lots of cute guys and free booze…

[ADELINE]: I honestly don’t really think frat houses would be my thing anyway

[MCKENNA]: I get it, but we never really get to see you! You’re always either at class or studying! [LYLA]: Will you at least come with us to Peyton’s game tomorrow?

[ADELINE]: Oh, tomorrow? Um… yeah okay

[PEYTON]: Correct answer. It’s against Foxbury so you better be there! [LYLA]: We're gonna represent our girl! “Show up and show out” and all that [MCKENNA]: I’m even going to wear green

[ADELINE]: Okay okay, I will definitely be there, but I really have to keep studying if I’m gonna take a break tomorrow. You guys go have fun!

[MCKENNA]: Just don’t forget to take a break every once in a while, okay? [LYLA]: I’ll drink a little extra just for you! [PEYTON]: Ugh, thank god you'll have my sober ass to babysit you then

[ADELINE]: *sighs* Okay, the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell…

[ADELINE]: I know you’re upset with me right now, but I’m gonna miss you a lot

[MATILDA]: You better text me all the time. Just cause I’m annoyed at you for leaving doesn’t mean I’m not gonna miss you too

[ADELINE]: I know. I’m always just a FaceTime away, okay?

[MATILDA]: I know. Don’t forget to have fun

[TV HOST]: Prince Sebastian was of course still absent from the princess’s sendoff

[TV HOST]: The prince is still in basic training at one of Brighton’s military bases, though the specific location has obviously not been disclosed to the public

massive shoutout to @armoricaroyalty @bridgeportbritt @the-lancasters @nexility-sims & @trentonsimblr for sending me some juicy gossip about their royals! Check out the Brighton gossip page below and read the stories of my amazing friends to find out more about what's going on in the royal sim world!

[ADELINE]: I’m sorry, what?!

[ADELINE]: There’s no way…

[ADELINE]: Please tell me you aren’t actually this reckless Bash… [HARRISON]: Addie? Are you in here?

[HARRISON]: I should have known this is where I would find you

[ADELINE]: Papa! Um, hi! I was just… I mean I was just trying to get some work done

[HARRISON]: I know that face. What are you hiding young lady?

[ADELINE]: Nothing! I’m just trying to get some things done, that’s all

[HARRISON]: If this is about your brother not showing up to the graduation, I’m truly sorry about that. I didn’t think he would take his anger at me out on you. If anything, this just shows how immature he truly is being about everything

[ADELINE]: It’s not that Papa, I promise. And even if it were, I know that it’s not your fault. He made his own decision

[HARRISON]: Has he at least reached out to you at all?

[ADELINE]: Not exactly…

[HARRISON]: Well let me at least see what it is that you’re working on [ADELINE]: under her breath Here we go…

[HARRISON]: He posted that photo online? And this is on Brighton Gossip? [ADELINE]: Yeah… I just saw the article. I think he blocked me on Instagram so I wouldn’t see it

[HARRISON]: That dumbass! He’s such an ungrateful ignorant little shit! Does he not realize how terrible this makes us look? He’s so careless and arrogant, I swear! We don’t ANNOUNCE things on our personal social media, much less without my approval!

[HARRISON]: This article was posted hours ago, why am I just finding out about this now? I need to speak to Warren about this, then I’m going to Hillwood to kill that idiot brother of yours

[ADELINE]: Oh Bash, your dumb ass has done it now…
