Mann, Day 17, Part 2
Rich: Since when are you taller than me?
Candy: Since a special someone bought me these awesome new heels, babe.
Rich: Oh... and how might you look to thank this special someone...?
I'm not sure what Loki and Jenny's problem is.
Quite the audience!
The car is a little more private.
Better get home, Johnny!
Candy seems to be less interested in dating Ripp when I play her household, these days, but she never turns him down when he calls her.
Mann, Day 18, Part 3
Promotion! Definitely no Rich pulling strings - this one was all her own doing!
The hot tub was glitching, so I swapped it out for a new one. Rich and Lana approve!
Junior got a promotion too, despite the bad chance card.
And Margot's doing okay in school!
Mann, Day 18, Part 2
Meanwhile, Rich and Lana went out on a date.
The Community Centre's not the most exciting of date venues, but you have to take what you can get around here.
Buzz and Vid did their bit to make it exciting, though.
And couches are more comfortable to makeout on than the benches at the Makeout Spot or the Swimming Hole.
Wooohoo!
Mann, Day 17, Part 5
Looks like Alma's bonding with her step-mum.
I think Alma and Margot are going to be firm friends, too.
Alma: Whee!
Kristen: I don't know how you got grass everywhere, Vivi - were you pulling up handfulls of it or something?
Rich: Your move.
Vivi: Mama!
Kristen: Yes! I'm your mama!
RT's having a middle-of-the-night boogie.
Also making friends with Mocha.
Mann, Day 17, Part 4
Of course Alec's making dinner - what's the point of having a butler if you don't use his skills to help your grandchildren get into private school?
Rich: Lovely to meet you in person, sir. Come on in.
I don't know why Rich ate in the kitchen and the headmaster in the dining room, but at least it sped things up!
Headmaster: We'd love to offer Margot a place at our school - and her younger siblings too, in turn, I'm sure!
Success!
Mann, Day 17, Part 3
Alma likes hanging out with her dad - he's always so much fun!
Margot's trying her hand at fishing, but she's not sure she's quite got the hang of it yet!
They fished together for ages but only Junior caught anything.
Kristen: Why are you guys out here?
Junior: It's a nice day - you can teach a kid to talk out here as good as in there!
Kristen: Yeah, sure, but maybe it'd be safer in the garden? No chance of her toddling off into the road...
Alma: RT, don't eat them, or Margot will be cross!
Promotion!
Mann, Day 17, Part 1
Sisters!
Lana seems to spend all her time playing video games. I guess they keep her occupied when Rich is... otherwise engaged.
Teaching Vivi to talk is taking awhile, even with four adults in the house. It's her birthday soon, so they'd better get on with it!
Rich burnt the pancakes, but they ate them anyway.
Good job Rich doesn't have to work tonight - he can be here to get his grandchildren into private school. Can't trust Junior with an important job like that!
Looks like Alma's found the pinball machine!
It's Sunday morning at the Mannsion - Alma's here for the day, Vivi's learning to talk, the headmaster of the local private school is coming for dinner, and Rich has a whole bunch of Candy wants he plans to take care of before then...
Mann, Day 16, Part 6
Junior: Soon, you'll be able to do this all by yourself like a big boy!
Margot: Hi, Mocha! You're the best doggy ever!
Margot: RT, I like your glasses!
(Margot can't read yet, but she's showing them the pictures and making up the story).
Margot: Boo!
RT: *giggle giggle giggle*
Rich: Good morning, little mann. Let's get you walking, then.
Rich: There are lots of things you need to learn to be a proper mann. Walking's just the first in a long list.
Everyone went to bed early, so the elders and the toddlers were up early too. Rich wasted no time starting on the toddler skills with RT.
I forsee clashes between Rich and Kristen (and Junior, to a lesser extent) about RT's upbringing...
