Sim’s Eye View

A daughter, just like Melody had wished for! She named her new daughter Syona. (more…)

Meadow tried to show Brandon how smart she was by keeping her nose in a book constantly, but Brandon didn’t seem to notice. He was throwing himself into his work, trying to get a promotion. Meadow didn’t find acting smart to be quite as bad as she had thought it would be, but it still wasn’t what she would choose to do if she didn’t have a reason for it. The pursuit of knowledge was Brandon’s purpose in life, but Meadow now knew for sure that it wasn’t hers. (more…)

(Brandon Mystic is the Mystic Legacy founder; I downloaded him from the Sims Exchange. Now he’s beginning a life with Meadow Thayer…)

Meet Brandon Mystic, fresh out of college and ready to make a new start. After he left home he worked hard to distance himself from his former life. He made lots of friends, even joined a fraternity. He met a beautiful cheerleader through the fraternity, and fell in love with her. By the beginning of his senior year, they were engaged. But that relationship died a sudden and violent death when Brandon caught her in bed with his roommate. It was then that he realized she had never been right for him; he had only been swayed by her beauty. Brandon didn’t intend to put himself through that again. No, instead, he moved to a little corner of the desert so empty it was practically deserted. (more…)

Boy, it’s been awhile, hasn’t it? I’ve gotten a bit behind on posting the Sheridans’ story; Aiessa is all grown up and has two kids, and there was a whole bunch of drama involving Adlai, and I somehow never got around to posting it. But mostly I’ve gotten kind of burned out on the whole Legacy thing for now. I do plan to go back to the Sheridans eventually, and I also started a more informal Legacy family, but for now I have something different for you. I give you… *drumroll*… Mystic Oasis!

See, many months ago I downloaded Brandon Mystic, the Mystic Legacy founder, from the Sims Exchange. (He doesn’t seem to be there anymore; otherwise I’d provide a link.) I moved him into a neighborhood of his own - a desert neighborhood I christened Mystic Oasis - and I aged up Meadow Thayer. The plan was for them to populate the neighborhood with unnaturally beautiful children. They were happy to oblige, and I liked the story enough that I decided to post it.

There’s a lot to catch up on. I have thirteen chapters’ worth of updates on my computer, just waiting to be posted, and I have some more stuff from the in-game photo albums that I haven’t made into chapters yet. So I suppose I had best get started…
