Last Round - Ariella became a vampire for the round thanks to ROS! They went low tech for a while since the TV had gotten stolen and the computer broke, and they couldn't afford to buy a new one nor was anyone skilled enough to attempt repairing the computer before some studying. Connor kept the business going while Ariella mostly had to stay home thanks to vampirism, and Ariella kept almost dying by going outside in the daytime to stomp roaches. Luca aged up to a child, and Paolo became a teen! He went on a date with Marceline Brand and although it wasn't super successful, it was just because of poor timing, and they're a good match otherwise so I'll be pursuing that lead!
Who's Who in the Zoo?
Connor Crosby is the second son of founder Drew Crosby and his first wife Jane. He has two siblings and one half sibling. He married Ariella (Rossi) who was the younger child of founder Mateo Rossi and his wife Judy; she has one older brother. Together Connor and Ariella have two sons, Paolo and Luca! They've got two cousins by their aunt Melena (Sloane and Felix) one by their uncle Marco (Veronica), and one by their aunt Louise (Ronin).
Connor and Ariella start the round off with some high romance - serenading barefoot in their pajamas in the yard.
Luca is working on some last minute homework before school.
Paolo is catching up on his shows!
A fun and easy ROS for this round, Luca has decided he will only be wearing this awesome pirate costume for a few days.
Popcorn showing off her agility.
All the kids around town have to take advantage of the beautiful summer weather and enjoy the new splash park, Luca is no exception! His big brother Paolo brought him there today.
Burgers came off the grill, and Luca got to know Katy Menzies while they enjoyed those.
A good witch blessing!
While Luca and Katy were having fun, Paolo was also chatting with some of the neighbours, like Ronald.
An intense police chase in the middle of a crowd! Luca provides a convincing death scene.
These two became fast friends!
Speaking of fast friends - Popcorn and Snoopy were hanging out together back at home.
Ariella was doing some gaming.
"Paaaaolooo.... it's your giiiiirlfriiiieeeend!!!"
Date night with Marceline is a go!
Let's take another shot at a movie night!
I still really really like these two together :) :)
A little time actually watching a movie together!
And progressed to a full makeout session in the hallway too!
Telling ghost stories like grandma Jane! I always think of her whenever I see any of her descendants telling spooky stories, she was always doing that.
A bedtime story on the ground in the dark, of course!
Ahoy matey!
Connor works on some sweet treats to stock the bakery case at the cafe.
Hello there Mr. Skunk!
At the cafe for work, Ariella takes a moment to appreciate Connor's vocal talents!
She tests out her own musical talents as well.
They could almost start a band around here!
Their employee Jack watches from a few feet away while a customer loudly complains about him to Connor.
Connor doesn't seem to be enjoying this part of the job...
Brett doesn't seem to have enough money - yeah, you've got four kids Brett - go home!
Tall Glitch strikes again, this time poor Hannah Park, whose maternity outfit is also glitching out it seems!
Getting out some of his excess energy.
You have to pay the cheese tax Paolo!!
As a family Sim I feel like it's fitting that Paolo would take care of his little brother a lot - taking him to the park, making him grilled cheese sandwiches, and stuff like that.
And Luca sure appreciates it :) He'll be a family Sim when he grows up too.
Doing his part with the cleanup effort.
Paolo didn't feel like going downtown again tonight, but instead he asked Marceline if she wanted to come hang out at his place.
Ariella greeted her at the door. They are already acquainted of course because Marceline works at the cafe!
Cuties as always!
Off to school barefoot!
Pet chores!
They had to get some groceries today, and Connor picked up a magazine while he was there.
Here's Marcy again, this time for her shift at the Plumbbean Coffee Co!
Ronald rocking the guitar.
Connor's sister Melena came today.
An innovative way to try to steal the guitar.
Sadly while they were all out for the day, Grim came for poor old Snoopy!
Bye sweet boy!
Bethany came with Paolo off the school bus, and joined their family for dinner.
Connor and Ariella getting a little flirty.
Shy Sims are so cute when they flirt!
Bad dog, this isn't your yard!
More cutie pie behaviour out of these two.
Wonder what Paolo thinks of it.
Seems like these two are shifting gears... heading up to the bedroom!
Later on, Connor has to enforce homework time with Paolo.
Poor Luca has had about enough!
That should help!
It's birthday time for our Connor - another gen 2 becomes an elder, it happens so fast!
He found a hairstyle that worked and he stuck to it, ok!
Paolo read a story to Luca.
Luca felt ready to get back into his regular clothes.
Making some use of this fancy telescope!
More work at the cafe - their niece Veronica came!
A formal bow to his brother Oliver.
Brett's back spending money he doesn't have, to be here on the open mic! A very pleasure Sim thing to do...
Tall!Hannah is also back.
Popcorn doing the rounds.
Katy came over to hang out with Luca again, and she's got a spooky story for him too!
They have a round of their favourite game, cops and robbers, and that's gonna be it for their round! Paolo, Luca and Ariella are all due to have birthdays next round so there will be lots of developments in their family next time!
