Where Are They Now? Brian and Bryan

All right last time we left Brian and Bryan, they had just finished the Bachelor Challenge and gotten engaged to the winners!

Brian ended up with Sarah.

While Bryan was with Gabby.

As for where they are now, let’s take a look.

This here is a shot of both boys with their families (This was my first time playing around with pose player). I think the first thing you’ll notice is that Gabby isn’t here, but rather Bryan’s runner up Cindy.

Let’s talk to the boys to see what happened, first up Bryan!

This here is Bryan’s little family, now let’s here from the man himself!

Alright Bryan, I think what everyone is wanting to know is what happened with you and Gabby?
Bryan: “Well the bachelor challenge ended, and Brian and I moved in with Sarah and Gabby. Things were going great at first, throughout the whole Bachelor challenge I was so sure that Gabby was going to be the one, but now that we were living together the spark was gone, everything just felt so forced. I decided to break up with Gabby.”

Bryan: “Just as I was going to end things, Gabby announced that she was pregnant. We had a wonderful little girl Jenna, I loved her from the moment I say her, but I couldn’t keep pretending with Gabby, so I ended things. Gabby still lived with us for awhile, I didn’t want Jenna to feel like she was constantly divided between her parents. She at least always had a cousin to play with, as Brian and Sarah had a little boy her age.”

Bryan: “Next is where things began to go really wrong. Brian and Sarah were married, and she seemed like such an amazing woman, and I was lonely. We were just sitting at the kitchen table one day, and I couldn’t get over how beautiful Sarah was… And one thing sort of led to another, and Sarah and I started to have an affair. I feel really bad about it, I shouldn’t have done that to Brian, but as it turns out Brian and Sarah weren’t as happy as I thought.”

Bryan: “Gabby was pregnant again, she wouldn’t say who the father was until the baby was born. And that’s when I found out that woman had seduced my brother and gotten pregnant. I was furious, Gabby had wanted Brian to leave his wife for her, when he refused, Gabby took off, leaving her son and daughter behind. We haven’t heard from her since.”

Bryan: “To make matters worse Sarah was pregnant at the time and gave birth to a baby boy, Darius, only a day after Gabby. Things were tense for awhile, Brian and Sarah’s relationship was a mess, and Sarah and I both decided that to end our affair.”

Bryan: “It was some time after all of this that Cindy and I re-connected.”
Cindy: “Best day of both of our lives.”
Bryan: “With Cindy I didn’t feel like I had to force anything. It didn’t take long for us to start up a relationship, Cindy moved in with us, we got married.”

Bryan: “And welcomed a baby girl, Lara (left), around the same time as Brian and Sarah welcomed their daughter (right). The two of them had managed to rekindle their relationship.”

Bryan: “Cindy and I later had another son, Ryan.”

Bryan: “Who was shortly followed by our twins, Trinity and James.”

Bryan: “Jenna and Adam had always been very close. The two of them were always playing together.”

Bryan: “And nothing changed, even as they got older.”

Bryan: “While Lara always loved her cousins and played with them, she wasn’t as close to any of them as Jenna and Adam were.”

Bryan: “It may have taken awhile, but I now have a wonderful and happy family.”
Cindy: “Except for the fact I can’t stand your brother.”
Bryan: *sigh* “The feeling is mutual, that’s why the two of you never talk to each other.”
Cindy: “Ah yes, the silent treatment, I’m waiting to see who’ll break it first, cause I’ve got a punch with his name on it!”
Bryan: “Okay, maybe things didn’t turn out so perfect, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

Now that we’ve heard from Bryan, let’s see what Brian has to say for himself!

Alright Brian, we’ve heard Bryan’s version of what happened, what have you got to say?
Brian: “I can’t comment on what happened with Bryan and Gabby, but I know Bryan likes to put a lot of blame on Gabby for what happened between me and her. I was… I guess content would be the best way to put it, with Sarah. I liked her, we were friends.”

Brian: “We had a son, Adam, together, but ever since the Bachelor challenge, I always carried a torch for Gabby. She ended up with Bryan and I ended up with Sarah, so I did my best to ignore my feelings. But then she and Bryan broke up, things with me and Sarah were feeling stale, she was still living with us, so sad and beautiful. The break up between her and Bryan was hard on Gabby, I just wanted to make her feel better. I know Bryan likes to say she seduced me, she didn’t, it was a mutual attraction, and we just ended up together.”

Brian: “And then she ended up pregnant. I didn’t know what to do, Sarah had announced her own pregnancy not long after Gabby. And then Liam was born and Gabby wanted me to choose, her or Sarah. Sarah was absolutely furious with me for what I had done, and I’ll admit, I deserved it. Despite Sarah’s anger, despite how I felt about Gabby, I realized that I didn’t want to lose Sarah, that what I felt for Gabby may not have been love. I chose Sarah over Gabby. Gabby was devastated, I feel bad about it, but I never promised her anything. In the end, Gabby chose to leave, I think being around all of us was too hard, though I can’t quite forgive her for the way she cut off her own children.”

Brian: “Things were tense for awhile, I know it wasn’t easy on Adam or Jenna, I think that’s part of why to two of them ended up so close.”

Brian: “It wasn’t easy, but Sarah and I managed to make things work. I’ll admit, I was thrown when I found out she had been having an affair as well, and that Darius might not be mine. She assured me it was over, and I trusted her. Our relationship ended up stronger than it ever was before and soon we welcomed are daughter, Amelia into the world.”

Brian: “We don’t know if Darius is mine, but I’ve decided it doesn’t matter, I’ve raised him, he’s my son, regardless of genetics.”

Brian: “Sarah feels the same way about Liam, she may not have given birth to him, but he’s still her son. With the two of them being born so close together, Liam and Darius are really close. They are brothers, regardless of what their DNA says.”

Brian: “As Amelia got older, she really started to develop her own personality. I’ll admit, as our only daughter she might have been a little spoiled.”

Brian: “She isn’t however the youngest in our family, that honour goes to Theo.”

Brian: “Adam is the oldest of our lot, and he adores all his younger siblings. I’m glad me and Sarah were able to work things out.”

Brian: “Things between me and Sarah may have been rough for awhile.”
Sarah: “That’s an understatement.”
Brian: “But we found our way back to each other, and are happier than ever.”
Sarah: “That I will agree with.”
Brian: “I am happy that my brother found someone to love as much as I love Sarah, I just wish it was someone who wasn’t…Cindy. I can’t stand her.”
Sarah: *sigh* “The two of them have gotten rather good at ignoring each other, I think it’s more for the children’s sake than anything else.”

And that’s what happened to Brian and Bryan!

Oh man, I had to actually boot up my game to check these kids names, the only one whose name I actually remembered was Jenna. I’m glad I saved these guys as households to my library. In case you were wondering, here’s the traits of the kids.

Jenna is a Loner, Genius, Excitable, and Light Sleeper.
Adam is a Supernatural Fan, Easily Impressed, Evil, and Schmoozer.
Liam is a witch, and has the traits Clumsy, Virtuoso, and Lucky.
Darius is a Loner, Couch Potato, and Hot-Headed.
Lara is a fairy, and has the traits Brave, Clumsy, and Sailor.
Amelia is a witch, and has the traits Insane and Genius (She somehow ended up missing a trait, oops).
Ryan is Evil and Loves the Heat.
Theo is a witch and has the traits Couch Potato, and Hates the Outdoors.
Trinity is Excitable and Friendly.
James is Grumpy and a Loner.

The kids are in order of age, Jenna and Adam were born on the same day and I can’t really remember who was older (I want to say Jenna, but I could be wrong), and James and Trinity are twins.

All of this drama was not designed by me, I may have helped it along in places, but it was mainly down to Bryan and Brian’s wishes and actions. Bryan had literally just gotten Gabby knocked up when he rolled a wish to break up with her. Brian randomly started flirting with Gabby, with no input from me. Bryan rolled a wish to kiss Sarah after eating at the table with her. After the mess with Brian, Gabby, and Sarah, and Sarah got mad at Brian for cheating, Brian rolled a wish to become friends again with her. I may have helped their relationship with the aid of a love spell, but I noticed that after the cheating drama, Brian and Sarah started rolling far more wishes to each other than they had before. Cindy and Brian really hated each other from the Bachelor Challenge (I’m not entirely sure what happened there), but she was the runner up for Bryan, so I re-introduced them to each other, and once she moved in, Bryan rolled way more wishes for her than he ever did Gabby.

Oh, and in case you were wondering Darius is actually Bryan’s son (Sarah got lucky that Darius mostly took after her, I think he does have Bryan’s eye colour though), and Brian has no clue that the man Sarah was having an affair with was his brother.

And that’s it for this mess! Let me know if anyone wants me to make the kids (Or Sarah, Gabby, and Cindy) available to download.

Welcome back to the Cordell Baby Boom! Last time there were birthdays, pumpkins were carved, Bridget threw a lousy party, and Blake once more did the cops job by beating up the burglar.

Blake and Blaze have their portraits started and are moving out. Blake is probably off to start some kind of new age religious cult, while Blaze tags along just to scam everyone out of their money.

Now that they’re children Blip and Beetle get to carve pumpkins to join everyone else’s.

Beep: “Ow, I think I hurt my back.”
Maybe give the waterslide a rest for awhile.
Beep: “Nah.”

There’s always someone dancing around here (it’s always a fairy too).

Bass is still working on her painting, Hades actually doesn’t do a portrait of himself, Bass skills up to level 7 and does it.

Beetle’s pumpkin is on the left, and Blip’s is on the right.

Beetle: “When were these things last cleaned?”
Seeing as you were the last toddler in the house that’s probably your own waste.
Beetle: “So it’s been awhile then.”

Diana: “Yeah no, that is not happening. We are not getting a pet!”
Bleet: “Why not, it’s not like your planning on having more kids!”
Diana: “Cause I said so!”

Diana: “Wait a minute, I still have genie lamp!”

Diana: “What happened to your hat?”
Genie: “I’d prefer not to talk about it. You have one wish left.”

Diana: “Hm, what to wish for? Oh I know! World Misery!”
Bleet: “You suck Mom.”

Genie: “If you’re sure. I NOW BRING MISERY TO THE WORLD!!”

Diana: “MWAHAHAHA!! I CAN FEEL THE POWER FLOWING THROUGH ME!!!!”
Genie: “Have fun with that, I’m out of here.”

Blip: “I still think it’s cheating. You can fly and I can’t! It’s not fair if you’re allowed to fly in tag!”
Bleet: “Tough luck. As Mom would say, use every advantage you have…”
Blip: “Yeah, yeah, and if you don’t have an advantage make one, I know.”

Brett: “I love puddles!”

It’s raining, why are you two having a water balloon fight???
Bleet: “It just makes it more fun!”

Beetle: “And then the Grim Reaper told her that she was dead all along.”
Beetle, no one is listening.
Beetle: “So?”

Ah, look at my two white haired kids playing together. The white hair doesn’t show up a lot, and Brett is the only boy to get it.

Why are you running this time?

Brett: “I keep finding monsters! Why are they always lurking under the beds???”

Diana, what are you doing?

You ARE HER MOTHER!! You just insulted yourself.

Diana: “Well my wings are better than yours!”
Boop: “I don’t think so!”
Guys, the only difference in your wings is the colour.

Beetle: “Oh no.”
Could you not make it to one of the 6 bathrooms (including all-in-one bathrooms) in the house?
Beetle: “Apparently not.”

Children which have moved out of the house? It’s a party!

It must be Spooky Day, they’re all fighting to kick over the gnomes.

Why is everyone hanging outside?

The party is a costume party! Diana is a white tiger.

While Hades is an orange one… Diana and Hades have matching costumes, that’s adorable.

Bass is a serial killer… I think.

Brett is a grumpy roman, Billie is a superhero, and the hotdog is Blip.

Bleet is a creepy looking clown.

And Beetle is also a superhero.

I’m not entirely sure what Beep is supposed to be.

Blaze didn’t dress up and Blaine is a cow plant.

And the last of the household, Boop is a robber… I wonder where she got that idea from. *cough* Two robberies in two posts *cough*

Baxter amused me greatly by dressing as a hotdog.

I think Balthazar is supposed to be a private detective or something.

Uh, Bryan, where’s your costume?

Bryan: “I was storing it in the netherworld.”

Beatrix is an astronaut… In high heels.

Belladonna: “That’s what you’re wearing?”
Beatrix: “Cheerleader, how cliché.”

Brandon is a hotdog… Again. Why am I surprised?

Bellatrix as a burglar kind of fits.

Now that I think about it, I don’t think any of the boys ended up with the purple hair, only the girls.

It’s a costume party, but everyone seems to be spending it outside, instead of dancing or eating.

For a moment I thought Bryan changed outfits, but that’s Brayson… With the amount of kids Diana and Hades have, there are only so many genetic combinations, some of these kids look too much alike.

And there’s another hotdog, this one is Brian, bringing the hotdog count up to four.

It is so weird seeing Bleet with so much less hair.

Brett is a little roman playing in the sand. This is adorable.

Billie of course didn’t stay in her costume very long.

At least someone is using the nursery, it doesn’t get much use these days.

Really Bella?
Blip: “What is she doing?”

Beep: “I want a turn in the sandbox!”
This sandbox is huge, go to the other end or something!

REALLY? The dishwasher is broken, again!!!!

Bass is now high enough in the painting skill to give Hades a portrait.

Boop: “Do you really have to do that here?”
Diana: “How about I sweep you off your feet somewhere else?”
Hades: “Hurgh.”
Boop: “Gross, I’m leaving now.”

Gnome: “Help. I’m to close to the edge & I can’t swim!”

Hades or Diana (I can’t remember who) found a time machine at the consignment store.

Time for some time travel!

Well those pumpkins didn’t last long, at least Spooky Day is over… The two remaining are Blip’s and Beetle’s.

And that’s all for now, see you next time!

Blake Cordell – Boy #9, fairy, toddler, Purple
Blaze Cordell – Girl #12, witch, toddler, Yellow
Boop Cordell – Girl #13, fairy, baby, Purple
Beep Cordell – Girl #14, witch, baby, White

Welcome back to the Cordell Baby Boom! It’s been awhile, so last time there was a crap ton of birthdays and I was disappointed when two girls, Beep and Boop, were added to the family when only 3 more boys are needed for the challenge.

With the amount of people in this family I decided to throw in some all-in-one bathrooms.
Bryce: “And one of them is already even broken.”
*sigh*

Hades: “Hmm, something about this snowman seems off.”
It’s missing a head.
Hades: “I’ve got it! Arms! That’s what this needs.”
*Face palm*

Diana: “Someone has to make sure this family doesn’t go broke.”
And you couldn’t have changed out of your sleepwear before you left?
Diana: “Whatever for? There’s hardly anyone here?”
What about the person that mans the register?
Diana: “I could strip nude and nothing would happen.”
You could get fined by the police.
Diana: “Please, I eat police for breakfast.”
Right…

It is so odd having only one child aged sim in the house…

This however, is offset by the SIX teens that are currently around.
Bryce: “I just love matches, the fire makes me so happy!”
Bryce, with no input from me, just randomly decided to call Beatrix, the other Insane member of this family.

Brighton: “YOU THINK YOU CAN TAKE ME?! I WAS ONCE KING OF THE WORLD!!!”
There’s also a lot of yelling at thin air thanks to 3/4 of the quads.

Every meal time leads to an entire mountain of plates, which Bryce seems to be the main one to clean up.
Bryce has the Unstable trait like his older brother Baxter, but for some reason Baxter got far more episodes than Bryce does.

Banana: “Ah. Hot tubing in the light of a full moon, how amazing.”

Hot tubing on a full moon, complete with zombies, screaming sisters…

And the sounds of destruction… I’m not sure this qualifies as amazing, but it’s certainly something.

Despite the two fridges and staggered eating, meal times always seem to end up as a mess of route fails.
Diana: “I WANT TO ENJOY MY BURGER IN PEACE!!!”

Bryce is playing with the Brayson look-alike… Um…. Blake, that’s this kids name, which I definitely didn’t just look up… *Whistles innocently*

It is time…

It seems Bree is going through a mood swing, which means lots of pranks in the house.

It looks like Brian and Bryan are here.

As is Beatrix with food and several of her other siblings…

Looks like I decided to throw a family gift giving party which I recorded absolutely no notes on… This is going to be fun.

Bryce: “WHO ARE YOU????”
Brian: “Your brother?… He’s like Beatrix isn’t he?”
Yep! He also has two other siblings just as crazy.
Brian: “Great…”

Hi Bellatrix!

Brandon joins Bellatrix in the weird dancing department, while Belladonna seems to be dancing normal enough… For now anyway.

Beatrix: “Dancing, how lame? I’m going to sit here with my legs crossed and be cool.”

Look who finally decided to show up after refusing to leave the house last time.

Diana: “IT’S TIME FOR PRESENTS LOSERS!!!”
This is going to be interesting…

Everyone’s arguing over seats…

And route failing all over the place.

This is when I noticed a party crashers, and I decided to reset her in order to send her home…

WHICH GOT RID OF THE PRESENT PILE WTF!!!!

Oh well, at least the party is still going….
Evil Bellatrix is spending time with her Evil little sister… There seems to have been a little spurt of Evil sims in this family.

Most of the kids ended up inside after the call to open presents, so they simply stayed put, but decided to dance instead.

Hades and Diana even got in on it. While these two may have an odd relationship, they actually do seem to like each other.

Of course, while the fairies are all dancing, the witches are content to watch TV.

Braida: “What do we do now?”
Beatrix: “I DIDN’T DO IT!!!”
Braida: “Not what I asked, but NO WAY ARE YOU BLAMING THIS ON ME!!”

Baxter managed to escape the dancing and decided to build an igloo… right in front of the back door. WHY????

Beatrix: “Fix it.”
Braida: “I’m not fixing it, you fix it!”
Beatrix: “YOU FIX IT!”
Braida: “NO YOU FIX IT!!!!!!”

Bryce seems to be going around starting pillow fights with everyone, but then insisting that the pillow fights take place outside… In the middle of winter.

I completely forgot Brandon was neat until I saw this picture… At least someone is cleaning.

Bella: “When did you change into your athletic wear?”
Brian: “I’m magic!”

And Bryce has dragged someone else into a pillow fight.

In other news the disappointments are now toddlers… I’m pretty sure this is Boop.
Since I didn’t give any traits or anything when she was born, Boop is Good and Loves the Heat. As you can tell she’s a fairy who likes purple.

This one is Beep, who’s a Genius and Excitable. She’s a witch and likes white.

Bella apparently stayed up all night dancing and is still here when the twins beginning their training.

Hades has the sense to do training in the quiet of the nursery.

Here’s to hoping for some boys this time!

In other news Bella is still here… At least she’s actually sleeping now.

Brighton: “AND DANCE!”
Diana: “Why are all my children so strange?”

It’s dinner time, and Bella is still here.
Bella: “I’m not going to turn down free food.”

It’s prom time! Bridget was Prom Queen, Brighton Prom King, and Buttercup and Bree got RI’s who you are never going to see.

And birthdays happened! Blaze now has Star Quality, and so does Blake.

In typical Evil sim fashion, Blaze decides to annihilate a snow angel.
Blaze: “ARGH!!!!!”

Oh look, Bridget is another sim I neglected to style an athletic wear for.
Bryce: “You call this justice! I thought we had money, so why are the couches still crappy???!!!”
I haven’t gotten around to it yet? I do think I replace them eventually, if I’m remembering right… It’s been awhile since I played this.

Bryce: “I love the smell of babies.”
Right…

The witches are still vastly outnumbered by the fairies in this family, and with Braida gone I can no longer confuse her and Buttercup.

Birthday time!

Blaire is now a Supernatural Skeptic… Girl, you’re a FAIRY!
Blaire: “Nonsense, it’s a lie made to influence the stupid.”

Anyway… It’s baby time!

Come on boys!

YES!!!!! IT’S A BOY! Meet Blaine, he also has a twin sister Bass, but I didn’t bother to photograph her.

I’ll do traits and stuff when they become toddlers, until next time folks!

B1&B2: Finale

I know, it’s been ages, but I’m finally getting this finale out. Welcome back the the bachelor challenge, last time we were down to the final three for each bachelor.

They’re not even on their date yet and Bryan and Cindy are already flirting.

Brian and Holly are eating together… I’m surprised how often Brian and his date have sat at the same table together, the only time it didn’t happen was with Gabby.

These two are still getting on well.

Bryan even went for an amorous hug.

I get the conversation with Brian and Holly started.

And then Holly initiates a game of tag.

Now that the dates are over it’s time for the challenges to begin. As stated previously things are going to work a little differently for the final 3. Up until now the contestants have accumulated points. That all means nothing now, all contestants are down to 0 points and are beginning from scratch. Each contestant is going to go on a date with the bachelors at the end of which will be a small challenge for them to complete.

Gabby and Brian are up first.

Gabby gets a kiss which looks strange as they’re standing on a hill.

And now it’s time for her challenge. If she reacts positively she gets 10 points, negatively she loses 5, anything else she gets nothing.

And Gabby loses 5 points.

Brian’s off with Holly.

And now it’s time for Brian’s challenge. He’s going to attempt a frog kiss, if it works she gets 10 points, if nothing happens she gets 0 points, if Brian turns into a frog she loses 5 points.

It’s time for the kiss.

And it’s a success!

It’s now Cindy’s turn with Bryan.

She gets a kiss.

And then the challenge.

Which she fails…

Brian is now off with Gabby. She’s the only one that’s managed to last in both competitions.

Time for the challenge…

Which is a success!

Izzy and Bryan is next.

Will Izzy be the one to win Bryan’s challenge?

Apparently not.

Now it’s Brian and Sarah.

Will she stay a frog forever?

Another success!

Since none of the girls won Bryan’s challenge, they’re all going to do the frog challenge. Izzy is up first.

And she gets 10 points.

Cindy is up next.

And nothing happens, so she gets nothing.

And last we have Gabby.

Who is another success!

It’s now time for what I’m calling the two-day challenge. First we have the B1 challenge, where the three contestants are locked in a building with a cat. Every interaction with the cat will earn them 1 point, every wish will earn them 2 points. Everything they need to survive has been provided, they have two days.

It looks like Gabby’s the first to earn a point! (It took a whole day, for the first day none of them interacted at all with the cat.)

Izzy plays a game of chase.

There’s a lot of sniffing done by the cat, but it still counts for points.

And Gabby gets in a game of chase.

There were more interactions with the cat whose name escapes me, but it would have been a bit repetitive documenting them all.

It’s now time for the B2 challenge. Instead of a cat, these girls are locked in with a toddler, but the same rules apply. 1 point for every interaction and 2 for every wish.

The toddler is called Claire, she’s an instant baby I gave my simself.

And Gabby’s the first one to find the toddler.

Sarah brings out the claw!

At the end of the first day Gabby is way ahead of the others, as Sarah and Holly seemed to have decided to spend their time talking to each other instead.

Sarah seems to have realized her mistake and quickly gets in some toddler action.

It looks like Holly finally found the baby.

HJBDS!! DID YOU TWO JUST BECOME ROMANTIC INTERESTS?!? … I blame Brian and his love spells.

And now back to the challenge, Gabby is helping Claire with the xylophone.

And Sarah does her best to monopolize the child’s attention.

Now the challenges are over, it’s time to tally the points.

There can only be one winner for each bachelor, the winner will be the girls with the most points.

Which of you has won Bryan’s heart, which has won Brian’s? The winner of the B1 competition and Bryan’s heart is…

Gabby! The winner of the B2 competition and Brian’s heart is…

Sarah!

But will it be happily ever after? We can only hope.

The Points
B1 B2
Christina xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Holly xxx 30
Sarah xxx 49
MJ xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Mira xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Izzy 28 xxxx
Gabby 50 36
Cindy 30 xxxx

B1&B2: Days 12-14

Welcome back to the bachelor challenge! Last time Gabby and Holly won challenges, but for the opposite bachelors than they did last time. Izzy was eliminated from the B2 competition, and Sarah from the B1 competiton.

Gabby and Brian go to his customary date spot, the bistro, but this time they refuse to sit at the same table. However later Brian rolled a wish to kiss Gabby, making her a favourite for both boys.

I get the conversation started…

And things seem to be going well, the two of them are getting along.

Of course Brian had to go and ruin it by turning her into a frog.

Gabby then proceeds to brood about her existence.

Gabby tried to start a water balloon fight with Jared Frio, but there wasn’t enough room.

And then Brian starts to argue with Gabby… So much for the date going well.

Let’s see how Bryan and Holly are doing. As usual I get the conversation started.

Of course Bryan has to go and play a trick on her.

At least she takes it well.

And then the scaring… These dates are not going well.

Then they were distracted by a guitar player… At least they’re not arguing.

Speaking of arguing…

MJ and Izzy are still at each others throats.

Now it’s time for the challenges. First we have the B1 challenge.

The contestants will be playing pool against each other in pairs. The winner of each game will then face each other to determine the challenge winner. If you win a game you get 5 points, if you lose a game you lose 3 points.

Gabby and Izzy will be facing each other, while Cindy and Holly face each other.

Cindy wins her game.

And Gabby wins hers.

They now face each other to determine the winner.

And Cindy is the winner, earing herself 10 points and a date with Bryan.

Now it’s time for the B2 challenge. Each of you will be completing a sculpture in clay. The sculpture worth the most will earn 10 points, each unique sculpture will earn 5 points, and the sculpture worth the least will lose 5 points.

Time to begin! I’m not sure why MJ’s clay is slightly darker than the others…

MJ’s is worth $35, Holly’s is worth $39, Sarah’s is worth $17, and Gabby’s is worth $22. Gabby and Holly get points for having unique sculptures. Holly is the winner of the challenge and earns a date with Brian.

Izzy tries to flirt with Brian, however as she’s already been eliminated she’s wasting her time.

My simself is still reading… She rarely does anything else.

And we’re back to more arguing.

Cindy and Brian really don’t like each other. Their relationship is all the way in the red.

Oh no. MJ has started a fire.

Since she automatically put it out she only loses 3 B2 points.

Well girls, we’re all here again. The elimination room.

After this elimination we’ll be down to the final three, at which things will work a little differently.

MJ you’ve been eliminated from the B2 competition, which means it time for you to leave the house. Holly is the one eliminated from the B1 competition.

So we have our final three. For Bryan the three remaining are Cindy, Gabby, and Izzy.

For Brian we have Holly, Gabby, and Sarah. Tomorrow the challenge winners will go on their dates before going into the final challenges.

B1&B2: Days 9-11

Welcome back to the Bachelor challenge, last time Christina was eliminated completely, MJ is down to one bachelor, and Gabby and Holly won dates.

It seems Bryan’s date has to be delayed as Brian froze him solid…

Now that Bryan has defrosted, it’s time for his date with Gabby.

These two are already best friends, but during the date Bryan rolled a wish to kiss her. This will be fulfilled should Gabby make it to the final 3.

Now it’s time for Brian’s date with Holly. It seems Mira as showed up still trying to get in on the action even though she’s already been eliminated.

I get the two of them talking.

And Holly initiates a game of tag. Smart move! They end up reaching best friend status.

Now time for the challenges. First we have the B1 challenge, the longest to last on the trampoline wins and gets 10 points. If you fall off the trampoline you lose 5 points.

Sarah is the first one out, as she decided she was done.

Cindy, Gabby, and Izzy all get off at the same time, making Holly the winner!

Now it’s time for the B2 challenge. The firewalks have been set to the highest level, the first one across wins and earns 10 points. If you walk across like a boss you get 5 points, if you don’t make it across you lose 2 points.

It’s time to start! Off you go ladies.

Gabby is the first one across earning herself 10 points!

MJ, Sarah, and Holly all walk like a boss and earn themselves 5 points.

Izzy on the other hand fails to make it across and loses 2 points.

Apparently Brian can now turn people into toads… Sarah is now a toad.

My simself, as usual, is reading a book. I had to make her move as she’s lying on one of the bachelor’s beds and they wanted to go to sleep.

So Sarah was abducted by aliens… While she was still a toad. She’s having a bad night apparently.

Do my eyes deceive me or is a contestant actually being nice to one of the bachelors!

The niceness continues, these girls are not walking around insulting everyone right now. They seemed to have clued in that they’re trying to win the affections of one of these boys.

Someone who isn’t Brian is actually cleaning! Izzy gets a few B2 points for this.

Bryan, that’s not how you make waffles.
Bryan: “I think I’m doing just fine!”

Gabby: “You suck Izzy!”
Izzy: “Look how much I care about your opinion.”

This house is not big enough for everyone. I think next time I’ll build a simple crappy house instead of getting a pre-made EA one.

Holly, your suppose to be spending time with the bachelors, not making faces in the mirror.
Holly: “But look how cute I am.”

MJ you no longer have any martial arts skill, why are you meditating?!

While, at least they’re not flirting.

Brian can now cast love spells.

Well, I guess we’ll se what comes of it.

Cindy talks to Sarah the frog, but nothing comes of it. Must be because Sarah is still a frog. I later get rid of the moodlets, so these two won’t make any unexpected romances.

Well, it’s that time again, 1 person will be eliminated from each competition.

Will anyone be going home this time, or will you all be sticking around a little longer?

Sarah, I’m afraid you had the lowest B1 score and will be eliminated from the competition. Izzy, You had the lowest B2 score and will be eliminated. This means no one is going home today and all of you get to stick around a little longer.

Holly and Gabby, as the challenge winners each of you will be going a date tomorrow with one of the bachelors.

Sarah 12 37

B1&B2: Days 6-8

Welcome back! Last time Mira was eliminated completely from the competition and was booted out of the house, and Izzy won both sets of challenges and thus both dates.

Bryan and Izzy go out first. Their date will last from 6am to 12 pm, while Brian will get her from 1pm to 7pm.

Bryan regales her with his plans for children.

Which is followed by a game of tag, things are going well for Bryan and Izzy.

Now it’s Brian’s turn.

They eat together at the same table.

I get the conversation started and…

Izzy: “You’re a complete and utter moron, my ideas are way better than yours!”

Brian: “At least mine are physically possible! Are you incapable of understanding the most basic of concepts?!”

Brian then continued his habit of conjuring apples for no reason… He has 70 of them in his inventory right now.

The date was so bad that Brian left early. Things for Izzy and Brian are not looking promising.

Alright people, it’s time for the next set of challenges.

First we have the B1 challenge. Each of you is now level 7 in the martial arts skill, you will spar in pairs, the winner of the match will get 5 points and move to the next round, while the loser will lose 3 points.

The pairs are Izzy and Sarah.

MJ and Gabby.

And Cindy and Holly.

Let the matches begin!

Holly wins her match and earns 5 points. As the first one done, she immediately goes to the final round.

Gabby wins her match.

As does Izzy.

They will now fight to see who will battle Holly.

Gabby wins and earns herself another 5 points.

This is the final match, the winner will get 10 points and a date with Bryan.

And the winner is Gabby!

Now for the B2 challenge. You will play dominos in groups of three and the winner of each round will earn 5 points, while the losers will lose 2 points. The winners will then face each other.

Holly, Sarah, and MJ face each other.

While Christina, Gabby, and Izzy play each other.

The winners are Holly

And Izzy.

These two will now face each other. The winner of the challenge and the date with Brian is…

Holly! It seems Izzy’s winning streak is officially broken.

In case anyone is wondering, this is what my simself does all day.

No! Bad simself! *sprays with water* No flirting with the bachelors!

Bryan and Cindy are engaged in a game of tag, this is a good relationship builder, and Cindy makes it to best friend status.

Bryan basically plays pranks for almost every interaction… Next time I do this challenge I might remove supernatural status as this is almost all he does on free will. Brian likes to send ice blasts at plumbing, the repair person has been called almost everyday…

Wow, these two really hate each other.

Sarah: “Stay away from me slut.”

Cindy: “You’re the slut!”

Despite having all her martial arts skill removed Gabby is able to meditate…

Even while these two are at it.
Sarah: “What kind of person wants to rename the stars after themselves?! You’re so self-centered!
Cindy: “You’re just too narrow minded to see the greatness of my vision!”

Boys, you’re suppose to be interacting with the contestants, no each other.

And now they’re fighting…

Brian: “Why do you wear the same clothes everyday, are you poor or something!?”
Christina: “Don’t you do the same thing?”
You can see my simself in the background reading yet another book.

These two may be sisters, but they hate each other.

Izzy: “How dare you talk to me like that!”
Wow, this house is full of people arguing.

Alright girls it’s elimination time. You know the drill, the one with the lowest points will be eliminated. Today someone will be leaving the house and going home.

MJ, you had the lowest B1 points and have been eliminated.

Christina, you’ve already been eliminated from the B1 competition, and I’m afraid you’ve now been eliminated from the B2 competition. You will be going home.

Gabby and Holly, as the winners of the challenges each of you has won a date which will take place tomorrow. Gabby with Bryan, and Holly with Brian.

The Points
B1 B2
Christina xxx 9
Holly 19 41
Sarah 12 31
MJ 12 28
Mira xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Izzy 36 28
Gabby 45 16

Until next time!

B1&B2: Days 3-5

Welcome back to the Bachelor Challenge. Last time Christina and Cindy were each eliminated from competing for one of our bachelors.

As the winner of the B1 challenge, Izzy and Bryan go on a date at the diner.

I get the conversation started, but the rest is up to them.

As the B2 winner, MJ goes to the bistro with Brian, as Brian doesn’t trust diner food.

They chose to eat outside together, so things are off to a good start.

And then this happened… Some townies got into a brawl.

It seems Marty Keaton had a bone to pick with Jared Frio… Maybe Jared is the real father of Justine Keaton’s baby? That would certainly explain this scene.

I got the conversation between Brian and MJ started, the rest is up to them.

It seems MJ decided she would rather talk to Boyd Wainwright…

Bryan apparently ditched Izzy and went back to the house.

Brian! *sprays with water* We do not set people on fire!

Brian then went and froze Cindy solid… At least she’s been already eliminated.

I was wondering why these girls kept fainting, but then I realized that they were talking to Cindy who has no sense of humor…

Alright girls, it’s time for the next challenge. This is a B1 challenge and thus was chosen by Bryan.

As you can see, there’s some bulls in front of you. Each of you is going to ride the bull. If you best the bull you get 5 points, if you fall off you lose 5 points. Whether you best the bull or not, the person who lasts the longest wins the challenge and gets 10 points. This challenge also has a loser, whoever lasts the least amount of time will lose 2 points.

Holly is up first.

And she bests the bull with a time of 27s!

Cindy fails with a time of 26s.

Gabby is another failure! Her time is 18s.

Sarah who is for some reason in her swimwear, fails with a time of 23s.

Mira is next, and fails at 24s.

MJ is yet another failure. She lasted 20s.

Izzy bested the bull! Her time is 31s, making her the challenge winner. As Cindy has the smallest time, she loses 2 points.

Now it’s time for the B2 challenge, the person who’s painting is worth the most wins and earns 10 points. The person who paints the painting worth the least loses 5 points. If you paint a painting unique from your competitors you get 5 points.

Ummm all the paints are worth the same…

Let’s try again with medium sized paintings.

Holly’s painting is worth $15, it’s a unique painting, so she gets 5 points.

Christina’s is worth $19.

Gabby is the last to finish (as usual), her painting is worth $20.

From left to right, Sarah’s painting is worth $18, Mira’s is $20, MJ’s is $17 and she gets 5 points for a unique painting, and Izzy’s is worth $21 making her once again the challenge winner! Holly’s painting is worth the least, so she loses 5 points.

It’s time for chat day as I like to call it, where I leave everyone on free will for the entire day. It seems Brian is once more taking his aggression out on Cindy.

Izzy initiates a pillow fight!

Both Izzy and Sarah are vying for Brian’s attention.

However, when the girls begin to argue, Brian walks away.

Childish Bryan decides this is the perfect time to scare the crap out of Sarah.

It seems Brian has a line of girls hoping to have a go at him.

All right girls it’s elimination time, and I have to announce that today someone will be out of the competition completely.

Will it be MJ or Christina who are already down to only one competition, or will it be a third person?

Mira, I’m afraid you had the lowest score for both our boys this time. You just didn’t seem to be trying very hard. It’s time for you to leave the house.

Izzy, you won both challenges, so tomorrow you will go on a date with both boys. Spending the first half of the day with Bryan, and the second half with Brian.

The Points
B1 B2
Christina xxx 10
Holly 17 26
Sarah 15 28
MJ 15 20
Mira 3 10
Izzy 32 23
Gabby 15 18

Until next time!

B1&B2: Day 2

Last time we meet our contestants and our Bachelors now it’s time for the challenges.

First up we have Brian’s challenge, the girls will be earning B2 points. The first one to finish their waffles without burning will earn 10 points, second place will get 5 points. If anyone burns their waffles they lose 3 points. If they start a fire they lose 10 points.

Gabby quickly falls behind as everyone else has theirs in the oven already.

It seems like Cindy started a fire, so she’s down ten points. Gabby was the first to respond to the fire, so she earned herself 5 points.

MJ is the first to finish and earns herself 10 points plus a date with Brian.

Sarah and Holly are ties for second and each earn 3 points since they tied.

Mira finishes next.

Izzy and Christina burn their waffles and lose 3 points each.

Now comes Bryans challenge in which the girls will earn B1 points. The one with the highest score will earn 10 points, second will get 5, and last will lose 3 points.

Apparently I forgot to record the actual scores, but Izzy had the highest score and got 10 points, Cindy and MJ both earned 5, and Christina had the lowest score and lost 3 points.

However challenges aren’t the only way for the girls to earn points. The night before an elimination the girls with the highest relationship with each bachelor will earn 10 points, if they have a negative relationship they will lose 5 points. I’ll be keeping track of wishes, and every friendly wish a contestant rolls to one of the bachelors will earn them 1 point, every romantic wish 2 points. If the bachelors are the ones rolling the wishes, the contestant gets 2 points for every friendly wish and 5 for every romantic.

Sarah starts out bold trying to get a kiss from Brian.
Brian: “We just met, I have no idea how clean your mouth is.”

Gabby then decides to scare Bryan.

And Izzy picks a fight… This is what I get for stocking the house full of Divas and Evil sims, this may be harder than I thought. Of course it doesn’t help with Bryan playing tricks on everyone.

Sarah tries out a flirt this time.

Brian’s still on the fence and not sure what to think.

Cindy then decides to insult Brian… Girls, you’re trying to woo these guys not scare them off!

As Brian was proving uncooperative, Sarah tries her moves of Bryan. It doesn’t go well.

It seems Izzy it getting in on the insult train as well. I don’t think these girls understand how not to insult someone…

Alright girls, it’s time for the first elimination.

The points have been tallied, the boys have declared their current favourites. While two of you are now only running for the hand of one of our boys, no one is going home.

Cindy, I’m afraid your B2 points were the lowest and you are no longer able to go for Brian’s hand. Christina, you were tied with the lowest B1 points, but you were the one with the lowest relationship with Bryan, you have been eliminated.

MJ, you won the B2 challenge and thus have earned a date with Brian. Izzy you won the B1 challenge and get to go on a date with Bryan. Use your time wisely ladies!

The Points

B1 B2
Christina 8 8
Holly 10 23
Sarah 20 13
MJ 20 20
Mira 8 10
Izzy 15 13
Gabby 12 15
Cindy 14 -1

Until next time folks!

Bachelor Challenge B1&B2 Day 1

Hello everyone, I’m Amanda and I will be your host for today. This bachelor challenge is a little unique as there are not one but two bachelors, which you may find a little familiar. Let’s meet them shall we.

Here are our bachelors, Brian and Bryan Cordell. They’re twin brothers and the first born children in my Baby Boom Challenge. Bryan is the pink one, he is a Slob, Heavy Sleeper, Childish, Cat Person, and a Coward. Brian is the brown haired one, he is Neurotic, Grumpy, Vehicle Enthusiast, Nurturing, and Ambitious.
Brian: “Wait I didn’t sign up for this!”
Bryan: “Yeah, what are we doing here?”
You signed the contract.
Bryan: “What contract?”
You know that paper I shoved in your face and told you to sign. That was the contract. Not my fault you didn’t read before signing.
Brian: “That’s not fair!”
Let’s meet our contestants now shall we, there’s 8 of them.

First we have Holly Goddard. Must people see Holly as just another hippie, she loves staying up late and making predictions with her stack of Tarot cards. She may not always understand when someone’s trying to flirt with her, but she’s hoping to make a real and lasting connection.

Next is Cindy Swanson. Cindy doesn’t understand why most people don’t seem to like her, she’s clearly great, so there must be something wrong with them. The world is run in a completely terrible way, so Cindy hopes to climb to the top and thrust her vision on the world and everyone will see how great she is. Finding love and a long lasting partner to help bounce ideas off of will surely be an asset to her plans.

Christina Steel is always looking for a thrill. She loves dating and having someone to depend on, but her relationships never seem to last, maybe this time will be different.

Gabby Koffi is always thinking too much, she likes everything to be just right, but when it comes to love she has a habit of waiting too long. In the end her crushes always end up with someone else before she can make a move, maybe this spur of the moment decision will bring her real love.

Sarah Bachelor loves being around people, but when it comes to dates, she has a habit of moving too fast. What’s wrong with kissing someone right away, when you like someone, you like someone. She’s hoping this time she won’t come on too strong.

Mira Alvi is the youngest of three sisters. She struggles to prove that she’s more than her family. Mira believes in taking care of herself and the planet, she hopes to collect and save as many endangered fish as possible. She just wants someone to see and love her as she is.

MJ Alvi is always trying to stand out from her sisters, making herself the center of attention in any crowd, using anything she can to wow the crowd. However she feels like something is missing from her life, maybe love can fill the gap.

And last we have the eldest of the Alvi sisters, Izzy. She refuses to go by her full name, so don’t even ask, she spent much of her time looking after her younger sisters, Izzy craves a life and family of her own.

Now to see what the boys think of them. The girls will each introduce themselves and then to boys will each give them a rating out of 10. The rating will be the first of the points they earn. Each girl will earn two sets of points called B1 points and B2 points. B1 points will be for Bryan, and B2 points will be for Brian.

Cindy is first up, and she talks to Bryan about her perfect house designs. Bryan must like it, cause he gives her a 9.

Holly tells Bryan all about the time her fortune telling abilities have helped the police, he’s impressed and gives her a 10.

Christina gives a thorough description of all the money she’s earned and that if they get married they’ll live comfortably. Bryan gives her a 10.

Sarah gives Bryan a rundown of her hobbies, and Bryan gives her a 10.

Gabby gets a 10 as well.

Mira gets only an 8.

Izzy gets another 10.

As does MJ.

Now it’s Brian’s turn. Holly gets a 10.

As does everyone else, except Cindy who gets a 9.

The Points

B1 B2
Christina 10 10
Holly 10 10
Sarah 10 10
MJ 10 10
Mira 8 10
Izzy 10 10
Gabby 10 10
Cindy 9 9

Next time things will get more interesting as we get into the challenges!
