Chapter 2.5

Last time, Fudge was a busy lady.  Murder, mayhem and triplets…oh my!

We left off with Fudge knocking on Charlie’s door, but when he never answered, she got impatient.

Fudge:  Why dream of babies when we just had some?  Wakey wakey!

Of course he starts off with flowers.

Fudge asks him to be her boyfriend and then I send Fudge home.

This is Charlie accusing Fudge of cheating.  Ugh!

Back home, Fudge consoles Mango and then has a chat with him.

More birthdays, coming up.

Honor roll for both Papaya and Mango!

+10

I just remembered that I did not put the scoring down on the last chapter.  I’ll make a mental note to fix that.

Orange:  *toot*

Papaya

Fudge misses birthdays because she was receiving an award.

Mango

O.O

Funny, but Mango (2011) was my favorite of all the generation 2 kids.  I particularly loved him when he would show up at parties and weddings sporting his red glow (Emperor of Evil) and scaring everyone.

I’m not ashamed to say this, but if they are samey looking, we will Play with Genetics.

Peach was a Fudge clone.  Randomizing genetics, she got her dad’s skin and eyes and kept Fudge’s hair.

Pumpkin, on rolling, lost Charlie’s skin color.  He was a Charlie clone, but now has the pink skin and possibly purple eyes.

Habanero, purple hair, pink eyes, pink skin.

Sorbet clone.

Pumpkin learns to walk and potty right before bedtime.

The next morning, it starts all over again.  Soon, Fudge bails to go to work.

Having Plum and Blackberry retire was the best thing.  Plum keeps them fed and entertained and Blackberry gets them walking.

Homework while Grandpa reads.

Mango, the first person to use the pool in centuries.

Level 8 for Fudge!  Why she promoted into a Chef outfit, I’ll never know.

She is surprised to come home to happy kids.  She immediately starts teaching the next to walk.

Mango gets a single guitar skill point.

He’s also freezing to death.

Continuing on indoors.

Can you spot the prank lights?  Ugh.

We interrupt our day/night of skilling for bottles.

Wintertime brings a single holiday bonus.

Why are you and Mango only in the pool in the dead of winter?

Haunting!

Fudge unhappily sets off all the pranks.

The reason why she and Charlie didn’t do any messing around the other night was so that she can age up.  There is no real rush on the last three kids in my eyes.

Fudge escapes toddler training and pranks by using the swings.

Papaya and Orange spends some quality time together playing video games.

…What the hell is Mango doing?

Fudge:  Dammit, Mango!  Stop making your baby brother cry!

Fudge tickles Habanero and chats with Peach, clearing out a few wishes.

Daycare is still working!  I sent teens and up to a party.

Where Fudge has her birthday because I forgot about it.

On the return, Blackberry has an accident.

Orange and Kiwi’s birthday is next.

All toddler skilling is done.  Imaginary Friends are removed and all that’s left for the tots is pegs and xylo.

Blackberry:  My name is Plum and I’m a dumbass!

I don’t understand how their relationship is still maxed.  These two are always chasing each other down to mock each other.

More baby minders coming right up!

Kiwi

Fudge sets off one of Mango’s pranks in Orange’s room.

Then Orange wakes up and heads straight for it.

Orange:  Thanks mom!  I’ve been dreading my computer for days.

Mom patrol.  All three are fed on time for once.

Fudge actually has wishes for all the kids for snuggling, holding and tickling.  Plum is also there to give some snuggles too.

Fudge:  I want that one, dad.

Plum:  Nope, there’s two more over there.  Go get one of them.

Peach:  Gwampa snuggles 😀

Fudge:  I win.

Peach:  Love, mommy.

Papaya:  I’M SICK OF THE PRANKS.

Me too, girl.  Me too.

Pumpkin cries.  Constantly.

Of course that must mean it’s dinner time.

…and a fail.  Since they keep screwing up going to bed on their own.

We went back to the dark ages of cribcatastrophe.

Well, this time it went perfectly, didn’t it?

Party at the Sorbet’s.  Habanero is asleep, so we find out that the party is at the daycare house.  It’s like taking the kids without carting them across town.

That would be Blackberry off in the middle of nowhere.

-5

Fudge gathers up the family and decides it’s time to go home.  Papaya does get there first, which teleports the tots back home.

Blackberry set off another prank and I barely caught it in time.

Cribcatastrophe: GO!

They were put to bed because EA says it’s time even though they are hungry.

Mango was in the hot tub, but quickly gets out.

Because he was chosen for a First Encounter.

Goddammit.

-5

Not a moment too soon!  I wish I could just ignore the last three kids and not have them.

Thanks for photobombing your daughter’s cake moment.

Fudge:  Anytime!

Fudge actually leaves for work, leaving Blackberry and Plum to finish off cakes.

That’s all we have time for today.  Next time, makeovers and God, I hope Mango ages up and leaves.  I’m tempted to have all teens move out at that time to make room for the last 3 kids.  We’ll see how it goes.
