Sims 3 Tales: Wishes, Part 03
July 30th, 2009

Ethyn: "Yeah. Let's just pretend the last month of my life never happened."
Thornton: "Got it."
Ethyn: "What about you?"
Thornton: "No wives, no kids, no responsibilities. Tonight we're just carefree, happy, single guys."
Ethyn: "Hmm… Time to get drunk then."
Thornton: "Oh, yes. Sloshed."

The mornings were the hardest time for Ethyn. He hated waking up and planning his day only to realize that he no longer had to schedule Marty into it.

The rest of the household gave Ethyn space to grieve, but their lives moved on and Ransom continued to get to know his grandson better.
Ransom: "Prepare to be trashed, kid."
Xander: "Whatever, old man."

Xander: "Do you still preach that love stuff?"

Ransom: "Of course. I don't know why you're so against it. It's wonderful to fall in love especially if that person happens to be your best friend."
Xander: "Ugh. You're making me nauseous, Gramps. You should be more like me and not tie yourself down to one woman. That's the life, man."

Katriss: *grabs up a controller and joins the men* "What are you boys talking about?"
Xander: "Katgirl, what are you doing with this dead guy? You could do so much better."

Katriss: "Oh, like you, I suppose?"
Xander: "Well, since you mentioned it…"

Ransom: "Would you two pay attention? I like to be challenged when I play."
Katriss: "Oh, crap. I'm dead."
Inara: "I'll take your place, Mom."

Ransom: *laughs* "Winner and still champion!"
Inara: "Bummer."
Xander: "Not fair. I was distracted."

And then, as so often seemed to happen in the house, one of the electrical appliances broke.
Xander: "You should count your lucky stars the TV's on the fritz. I would've handed your ass back to you on a platter."
Ransom: "Sure, kid."
Ethyn: "Could you guys keep it down a little? I'm trying to help Inara finish her homework."
Xander: "It's frikken Friday, man! Tonight should be about fun. You can always do your homework later. Heck, just do it before class Monday morning. That's what I used to do."
Ethyn: *quietly, but loud enough for Xander to hear* "Well, that explains some things."
Inara: "But if I do it tonight, then I'll have my weekend free and I won't have to worry about it any more."
Ransom: "She's a genius. Takes after her mom."

Ooooohhh, so what's gonna happen with Christopher Steel? -wink wink nudge nudge- Ohh, and I loved the ending. I love how tough Katriss was (of course) and how macho angry Xander was, then how Inara just said "Bye, Xander." Ha ha, I pictured her saying it in an innocent and almost sing-song voice. Then I picture Xander's response to be gruff and slightly ignorant.

Yeah, you should totally do more with Chris. ;o) He's really adorable, but in that youthful and energetic and innocent kind of way. The perfect shoulder to cry on, and the one that you are falling in love with but don't realize it until it's too late. Ha ha!

LOL! Xander is hilarious and I adore Ransom. He's like the calm voice of reasoning in the house, provided he's not preoccupied with video games.
Poor Ethyn! He needs to get out of his slump. Loved the bit with Thorton awkwardly handing him the book… ROFL.
"I like touching." Hahahahaha
