Prosperity Challenge - 10.1 (Days/Years 28-30 - Burkett)
Round 10! Winterfell is working on Generation 2 in earnest all over town. First up is Winterfell's most eligible bachelor, Alvin Burkett.
Alvin was pretty sure he'd gotten as much out of being single and carefree as he cared to. He'd never really thought of himself as the type to settle down and get married, but it was now obvious to him that his life was lacking something fundamental. Who was he acquiring all this wealth for? His robots didn't care.
Chris had been cleaning for him since he was a college student, and they'd frequently had trysts while she was on the clock. Alvin had been with other women, but there was something about Chris that was special. She never made demands, she was gorgeous, she was supportive - and he knew she'd be a good housekeeper. She didn't even object to his proposal in front of the TV.
Yes, Alvin could feel it all settling into place at last. The one thing Chris did insist on was a proper wedding, and Jonathan was only too happy to make the arrangements.
The sprinklers came on during their vows, which everyone assured them later meant good luck. Not for the first time, Alvin regretted that Van and Leone had died before any of the big milestones in his life. He also couldn't help wondering where his real parents were at that moment. Did they ever wonder about him? Was it true what that angry woman had told him, all those years ago?
Chris settled into life in the richest family in Winterfell pretty quickly. No one could say she hadn't worked hard all her life, cleaning every house in town. She was lucky, sure, but she'd earned it, too.
In what seemed like no time at all, the Burketts found that they had a baby on the way. For the first time since it had opened nearly 30 years ago, Alvin closed the family business temporarily to let his wife get some rest.
This left Jonathan with not much to do except obsess over Chris' impending arrival. She grew pretty weary of his constant advice and attempts to feed her all kinds of crazy foods that he claimed were "good for the baby". What could a robot know about sim babies that she didn't?
Most of the time, though, she sucked it up and ate whatever he put in front of her. It was kind of touching, being fussed over by a robot.
Bonus pics:
Uh, Glen? Did you have the cheesecake, or the berry pie? Glen? Hello? This is important!
I was not prepared for that at the wedding...
Jonathan booty calls Melanie. What a strange game the sims is sometimes.
