Poor Sport

Olive tried to call up her first chess opponent right after aging up.  I say tried because it turns out he was already at the party even though nobody invited him.  His name was Kristoffer Henry and he easily beat Olive.  She does not lose gracefully, not only did she throw the pieces everywhere but she rolled a wish to be mean to the poor guy!

Even though it was getting pretty late Olive challenged him a second time and this time managed to beat him.  Kris takes it like a champ and politely claps at her.  See Olive that is what you are supposed to do when someone beats you.  Even though she won she still decided to fulfil the wish to be mean to him and then asked him to leave.  Isn’t she supposed to be friendly?

That night the family was awoken by the blaring noise of the burglar alarm.  Remy came rushing downstairs just in time to watch the police woman get trounced by the burglar.

“Sorry sir looks like he got away this time. . .”

“Got away my foot, this is how you do it lady!”

Abbie came home with Turtle after school that day and the two of them spent hours making silly faces at one another and flirting.

“You are almost as sexy as a clown”

With all that nonsense out-of-the-way Turtle secured his first kiss and asked Abbie to go steady.  She said yes!

Olive obliterates the next chess opponent.  Then does a happy dance in his face, this girl is not a good sport at all!

Zorak finishes his second novel “Big Fat Head Day!” and receives $432 a week from it.  Not bad.  Of course when your family has nearly three million dollars it’s not much.

Olive’s next ranked opponent kept dodging her invites and telling her to call back later.  Finally she had enough and threw a party and only invited Preston.  It worked and he showed up only to have his pants beaten off.

The next day while everyone was at school and work Saffron invited over her new friend Grace.  I made Grace and her family after I merged all my package files together as a test to see if all my cc still worked.  Grace and Saffron spend time watching the cooking cable.  Then Grace gets up and wanders away and I find her in the gym watching tv.  It’s even the same exact show, what the heck Grace that’s rude!

Zorak brings a Raina Mackensie (Grace’s niece) home from school and then ignores her to write his book.  Pistachio is quite taken with Raina and goes over to introduce himself.  I left them alone for a few minutes and when I came back Raina was flirting with him!

So I figure why not?  Poor Pistachio is a loser with no girlfriend and no lifetime wish, he deserves some love!  She accepts all his flirts and he grows bolder and bolder until finally he leans in for a kiss.

Ouch, rejected.  Guess he’s still a loser!

“What’s wrong?  You are single aren’t you?”

“Yeah but what can I say, I just don’t like you.”

Turtle is busy chatting up Grace and learns she works at the graveyard.  He isn’t sure what he thinks of Grace.  She runs around in a wedding dress barefoot all the time and works in the graveyard too?  What an odd duck.

Zorak is heading over to watch some tv because he’s really stressed out from writing when he gets jumped by Raina.  She throws herself at him right in front of Pistachio!  Saffron is not impressed.

Zorak tries to explain the situation to his angry mother while Turtle yells at that pink-eyed hussy.  In the end Saffron forgives Zorak (for upsetting his brother and for cheating on Kara) but asks Raina to leave her home.

While playing a relaxing game (no tournament) of chess with his daughter Remy decides to age up.  Then he did something he’s been rolling wishes for a lot lately and quit his job!  Well he retired anyway.  Way to go Remy, you enjoy that retirement!

The next day while the children are at school Remy learns what retirement is really all about.  Saffron has him fixing every blasted thing in the house and cleaning up!

It’s worth it though because she always gives him some loving when he is done to show how much she appreciates him.  She rolls a wish to have another baby with Remy at this point and I just sigh and cancel it.  If I gave in to all their wishes this gen would have about 12 kids by now!

Kara comes home with Zorak after school and seems blissfully unaware that he locked lips with Raina the day before.  Whew now don’t screw it up anymore Zorak!

Olive’s next opponent brings a toddler but we don’t invite the baby in so the lady just sets him down and leaves him there.  Nice lady, hope you play chess better than you parent.

Pistachio finally rolled a lifetime wish!  He wants to be the tinkerer (master handiness and logic) so he starts reading some handiness books.

Bad parent lady does indeed play chess better than she parents and beats Olive in their first match.  Olive once again rolls a wish to be mean to her opponent after defeat.  First they play again and Olive wins, then she scares the woman senseless and sends her packing.

Pistachio is being stalkery and pathetic when it comes to Raina.  He calls her everyday after school because everyday he comes home with a full panel of wishes for her.  Even knowing how badly she treated him before he wants to hang out with her, massage her, chat with her and use a pick up line on her!  After saying no several times she finally submits and comes over.

He works his nerd magic on her (she seems pretty receptive again) and this time she doesn’t reject his kiss!

Feeling confident he asks her to go steady with him. That didn’t fly with her though and Pistachio learns she has commitment issues.  Poor guy!

Zorak is so smooth, when Kara sits on the other end of the couch he casually scoots over while she isn’t looking.

Kara is pleased and snuggles up to her silly boyfriend.  They are making out before you know it.

They are so into it that they fail to notice Turtle being a total creeper on the other couch.  Hey you have your own girlfriend buddy, don’t you look at Kara that way!

Realizing we have no painters in the family I quickly send Remy to learn now that he has so much free time.  I also start Saffron on sculpting so hopefully we can get unmelting sculptures of the green kids someday.

Olive wins again!  She is now rank 3 in the chess tournament.

After Olive finishes her match they hold a small birthday party for Turtle.  He rolls loner as his final trait and immediately joins the journalism career.  He can’t wait to get started on his dream!

Random shots

Sometimes Olive really hates chess!  She is so competitive!

When she wins though she can be a total sweetheart and will often chat and joke around with her opponent.

Saffron and one of Olive’s opponents get a little too close for anyones liking.
