The Goth house is empty for the first time.

I locked the bathroom just before Varulf joined his mother.  I thought he may as well stay there.

They laughed at each other falling asleep standing up.

Varulf’s wife, Janette, left with one of the twins, Mahogany.  She headed to the Dongles in Bluewater village.  The Dongles were elderly spinsters who specialise in “orphans”.

Meanwhile, Blanca was being ignored.

The repo man came…

One down, three to go…

Varulf was the next to go and then his father, Lucius.

That left Blanca alone…

but not for long.

Unfortunately, while Janette was drowning in the Dongles’ pool, the Dongle sisters didn’t take good enough care of Mahogany who was taken away by the social worker anyway.  Damn.

Other households were killed by a combination of starvation, fire and drowning and a couple of death by flies.

In Bluewater village I had a girl dive in the pool (there was no ladder).  With no interference on my part, everyone else followed.

So the pool had the girl and two adults (including Janette’s father) plus two passers by, one of whom had just been given the family dog.  I’ll have to rescue her another time.

Also killed off was Dwight Pleasant and his wife (who happened to be Janette’s sister).

Although the Pleasant and Goth family homes are now empty, that’s not the end of the line.  Other Pleasant and Goth branches survive but effectively they end here.

Postscript:

The Goth twins were adopted by Cedar Greenwood but they drowned in the pool.  Cedar also drowned.  His widow moved out.  As well as Cynthia and Robert Kim (who died in a fire) their son and grandson, Justin and Jason, drowned in a pool.  Widow, Melisande, moved back to the Huntingdon family home.

I’ve now got the active households to a more manageable 22.

I killed off Mo and adopted daughter Peapod.  Blossom went back to the orphanage.

I was about to choose another family to kill off but realised that I’d forgotten who was who already.  There appear to be a lot of young couples with babies so I’ll have to play a few to work out which ones are for the chop.

Feel free to leave any comments on your preferences.

She is pregnant with number six (and the final one!).

Ramona is now a teenager (and able to help out with the babies).

Grandfather, Lucius, was there for Blanca.

Mother, Janette, went to get Mahogany.  In the meantime the grandparents ate some cake with a visitor.

“Won’t you stay for some cake? – we have more…”

Janette returned with baby.

Celebrations…

During all this time, father, Varulf, was reading a book.

Dwight thought he was onto a good thing and proposed quite quickly.

Unfortunately for him, Janine wasn’t quite ready.

He had to woo her a bit more before trying again.  It was actually Janine who proposed to him and, of course, he accepted.

Rosie got pregnant again and has just had another son who they named Vincent. (There are a lot of sons being born in Pleasantview at the moment.)

Perhaps I should’ve called him Vincent Van (Goth) – haha.  Too late.

Aron grew to school-age.

He and Jill had two girls: Della and Cara. Della is now school-age.

She’s interesting-looking.

Here’s Luciano with Cara.

Jill was quite happy to leave it at two children but Luciano wanted to try again.  Jill soon became pregnant and had rather a bad time of the pregnancy – always tired, hungry and needing a bath.  With only one bathroom in the small house, that was a mission in itself.

Finally the baby came, and it was a boy!  They named him Luigi.

You can see where the girls get the slitty eyes from.  I wonder what Luigi will look like.

Chaos ensued. (Jill was still tired and rundown.)

Luciano was at work at the time.

Jill had it out with him when he returned.  The house was too small for three kids and now they had enough money to do better.  Luciano suggested expanding the house but Jill had had enough of the place.  So they moved…

into the new Moroccan house.

Unfortunately there was no room for Luciano’s beloved car without destroying the pool and outdoor living area.  He decided to gift it to Luigi when he’s older.  Who needs a car anyway, right? (he persuaded himself)

Juan’s illegitimate daughter, Veena, was married to the son of a Greenwood and lived in the old Greenwood family home with him and their twin boys. She found her husband flirting with Allegra Goth and they had a huge argument. She was ready to break up with him but, unfortunately, found herself locked in the ensuite bathroom.

She couldn’t understand why the Sim god had picked on her.

She starved, and looked on at the god to the end…

The Sim god had reasons.  The god felt that an actual Greenwood should live in the family home not some descendant with a different name.  There were four of them living there and the god had the idea of moving in Brandon Greenwood (son of Ocean and Belle Broke).  Brandon and his wife had 3 kids – too many people in one house.  So one had to go.  But then the twins grew up and headed off to university.  That left enough beds for all.

There’s method in my madness.
