Don't You Ever Grow Up

I'm baaaack! Did you miss me?
YES!
...Wow. That was good! I almost couldn't tell that was sarcasm!
 No, I'm serious! I love him, but with Lumin here I NEVER GET TO LEAVE THE HOUSE!!!


Well you guys seem to be getting along just fine! He's not walking yet?
I just started teaching him! He's so smart, though! He's already getting the hang of it :)


Lumin: *Excited sqeals*
*Giggles*
So cute! XD


Who's a good boy? You are, you are!
...Weird, that's what I say to my dog...
Whatever! Oh, did I tell you this already? I got a raise!
You mean a promotion?
No! A raise! You see, Fatima forgot her report for a meeting, so I ran it to her and she's paying me an extra 9 dollars per hour!
That's fantastic! I bet you'll be a professional in no time! You'll run Fatima right out of her position.
She would kill me! And that would be veery bad cuz she's my only friend!
I'm just gonna float waaay over here... BAAAHAAHAHAHAA!!!
:P


Ok... So, Lumin, I'm just warning you now that fish are veeery bad things. You do not want to bring them into the house because they would make Mama reeally mad, ok?
'Kay! :D
Eep! He said 'kay'! *Freaks out*


And when you grow up, you're going to go to this place called school, and get aaall A's for me, ok Buddy?
Shool?
No, school!
Shkool!
NO!
SHHH! He's getting better!


And when you get older, you're going to buy Mama a good car, ok? A good, pretty, red car! There: lots of adjectives!
Car! Good car!
Rowan! Leave him alone! You'll have 100 kids, let him have his own life!
He's three.
Learning starts at an early age and I don't want him living here forever!
What!? Why!?
Gotta make room for more babies!
NOOOOOOOOO!!!
Mama's cwasy! *Giggles*


I wuv you thiiis much, Mama!
D'awww!


Aww, I love you too Lumin!
Hey, ask him if he can say Maddy!
Absolutely not!

*              *               *

Roooowaaaaan! Time to go to wooork!
Eeew. No... Five more minutes?
I suppose I could kick you to work if you miss your ride, seeing how you never use your own car.
I'm going, I'm going!


Ahh! Lumin! Ro! We forgot the baby! Call a sitter!
Isn't he old enough to stay home alone?
Are you crazy!? Oh... wait...


She's scary! I'm not leaving my son with her!
She's like fifteen! And you have to go to work! And meet more guys!
Guys? Sounds good to me! Here ya go, person!


Ok, so no parties, no people, and DON'T SLACK OFF!
Sally Hustev: Whatevs...


Sally: I'm sure everything will be just fine, Mrs. Evander!
I'm not married...
Sally: Okey dokey then! Well I'll make sure to take care of Rubin while you're gone!
>.< You sure about this, Host-Lady?
Eh... Ya she's fine let's go.

*              *              *

Before you go home, I want you to stop at the art gallery. Maybe you can have an artistic child!


...Oooh! Pretty!
Good! I was afraid you didn't like art!
I was talking about the house...
*facepalm*


Hi! Have you seen any hot guys around?
Rayna Kaminski: Haha! No, deary, if I had do you think I'd be standing here talking to you?
!!! See, I think you and I are going to get along juuust fine!
Rayna: BlahblahblahartblahblahchildrenblahblahandIwaslikegetoffmylawnblahblah!
BlahblahboysblahblahchildrenblahblahblahHost-Lady!
Omg! Rowan's got a new friend! Rowan and Rayna sittin in a tree c-h-a-t-t-i-n-g!

*              *              *


...She was going to talk to this guy named Melvin Taft and she just passed out! Maybe I should have let her take that nap... More kids = less sleep... Less sleep = more of this. Poor Rowan O.o


Ugh! Why is he crying?! Host-Lady it's your turn!
Actually, I don't have a turn. No arms. *Wiggles around uselessly*
Aaaahhh! I need sleep! Make him better!
Sorry, no can do. No cheats allowed.
*Death glare*
*Hides*


Everything looks fine here! If you want, sleep is now an option...
If I move, he will just start crying again. Make it stop!
Only 99 more to go...
-.-


I don't think coffee will make anything better, you're going to collapse again!


Rowan! Drinking will DEFINITELY NOT make things better!


I have to do something! It never ends!
Get used to it :) (See this is the part where I get you back!)
I'm done with this challenge! I am protesting until I recieve further assistence!
*Goes to reset sim... Nah I can't do it...* I'll help you with your cooking if you give up the protest.
Deal!
Can somebody get me an easy button please?


Pancakes! Sweet!
No that would be the strawberries.
Blah!
Teehee!
They came out so perfect! On my first try too!
Sooo... friends?
Not even close.
Kay :)


Aaand break-time is over. Rowaaaaan! Lumin wants youuuuu!

*              *              *


What the heck!? Get out of that guy's taxi! He looks insanely mad! And not in the crazy way like you!
Hey!


At least you aren't as strange-looking as this guy here... Came to the stadium dressed as a cat!
Random sim: Meow!


Rowan, after the amateur competition, maybe try looking for a new beau? This is a HUGE crowd!
And I see a couple people I wouldn't mind getting a whole lot closer to... XD
Yaaay! Looking forward to baby numero deux!

Baby #1

One hundred children... I wanted a big family but I never imagined this big! Her hair was mused, clothes stiff, outdated, and riddled with holes. In short, Rowan was a complete mess. Trash was piled chaotically about the house, some stacks of it looking dangerously close to toppling over. Rowan saw dozens of children running aimlessly about. Toddlers pulled at her skirt, pleading to be fed. Babies cried incessantly from an adjacent room. She was alone. And she had no idea how things had gotten this bad.

Aaaaaahhh! *Gasps for breath*
*Grabs baseball bat* WHAT'S GOING ON!?
Nightmares! Really, REEEALLY bad nightmares!
...*Facepalm* Okaaaayyy then. Thanks for waking me up early on a Saturday!
This is your fault!
Wanna talk about it?
No, I'm sure it would never happen... Besides, I'll have you to help me with the kids, right? :D
Heheh... Sure >.>

I just can't have 100 kids! It's not possible!
You can do it, though!
All at once? I won't be able to take care of them!
Nooo not all at once! I could never keep up with that!
*Sighs in relief* Wait... You?
Nevermind...


Well, I bet my baby-daddies will stick around to help if there's something in it for them *wink, wink*
Y u no listen? No help for you! You can do it on your own! I belieeeeve in you!
Really??
Of course! (Not really but we'll see how this plays out...)


You're right! I'm sure everything will work out! If I could, I'd give the whole world a hug today!
O.O There's your *cough, creepy, cough* optimism shining through! Now get to work or you'll be late!

*              *              *

Promotion!? :D
Ya
Woot!! Finally! Whatcha reading now?
A book for work... Fatima said it'll help with my new responsibilities.
Nice! Hey... Where are you going...?

*Gasp!* Dare I say it? Have we spotted our first babby daddy?
I guess he's kinda cute...
Go find out who he is!

Aiden Jones: Yes, yes these are very nice.
O.o Creepy...


This is awkward... *Clears throat* Erm... Hello there! Mr. Scientist-guy! My name is Rowan, and this Host-Lady follows me around all the time and we were thinking...

YOU should totally be in my challenge! As my first baby daddy!
Aiden: ???


You see, I have to have 100 children, and they all have to come from different fathers, and I haven't had much luck finding anyone yet so I figured it would be uuber-super-awesome if you helped me out!
Aiden: :D Well... What is your purpose for having 100 children?
Actually... That's a good question. Host-Lady?
Erm... You're saving the world from the oncoming apocalypse? Ya. Let's go with that.
She says I'm saving the world.
Aiden: You're obviously crazy, but it sounds good to me! Will I have to take care of this child?
Yes!
No.
No?
No.
D: Okay, then. No you will not.


Pleeeease say you will! We can go back to my place for a while and you can see how great everything will be for our child!


Aiden: I will! This all sounds so wonderful! You'll pay for the time I spend at your house right? And you have a TV?
O.o Ummm... Sure?
Aiden: Oh, this is all so exciting! I've been studying the probable outcomes of polygamous relationships and am undone by the posibility of participating in an experiment such as this!


Aiden: Was it something I said?


Aiden: Are you all right?



Juuust ducky! :3
Awww! ... I think you need to take a shower, Rowan. Really badly.


I should warn you though, Rowan, the guy is married. You'll have to watch out for Hannah Jones for the rest of your life.
No prob!
Aiden: What?
Talking to Host-Lady, not you!
*Headdesk*


Aaaand you drove home WITHOUT out baby daddy? You are a genius.
Thank you!
Grrrrrrrr!

I can't do this! I don't know how to take care of a baby!
It will be over before you know it! Trust me!
Ok... I hope our daughter has hair like yours, Aiden!
Aiden: What? You want to have the child right now? My wife just left me because of you!
So I take it you don't want kids yet? I think I need to talk to the Host-Lady about this!


It's creepy how he just stands there watching her... *breaks out into song*  I always feel like somebody's watching meee!


I brought him home! Now what do I do?? He keeps telling me no!
Be persistent! It has to work eventually!
Hmmm... Ok!
*watches her leave* ...This can't end well...


Theere ya go... Corner the poor guy in the bathroom...


I don't think this is the best time...


Are you seriously talking him into it!?


O.O Oh my gosh it worked!


Ha! He has bunny slippers! ...AND I HEARD A LULLABY! Baby #1 is on the way!
I don't think so... I didn't hear anything...
Probably not but geez there was a lot of commotion coming from that room...
O///O


I'M PREGNANT!
I'm not gonna say it... Not gonna say it... I refuse t-- I TOLD YOU SO! Nope, I had to say it! What did you change into anyways? I've never seen this before!
I like it!
You would. Now you just gotta tell the new dad!


Hey cutie! Get over here!
*Winces* You need to read more of those charisma books...


I'm preeeh... I'm pregneh... I'm p-p-pregnant!


What?


That's great!


I'm going to have a baby!


Oh geez... I'm going to have a baby... *Panics*


Not good!


Heheh...


Aiden: Whoo! Girl, that's awesome! Good for you!

 
Aiden: You're going to be a great mom!
You mean it?


That is pathetic. Don't fall for it, Rowan! You can't stay together anyways!


Aiden: Can I feel it? She's gonna be just as beautiful as her mama!
Aww! Thanks! *Blushes*
...They are kinda cute together... But I still have a bad feeling about this...


<3


D'awww! At least he's stuck around so far... Am I going to have to kick him out? That would just be sad :(


NO! ROWAN DON'T DO IT! AIDEN IS A GREAT COOK, LET HIM DO IT! YOU CAN'T DIEEEE!
I could be an excellent cook if you gave me a chance!
Aw, sweetie, I'm just looking out for you! *Makes Aiden throw away the food*


Today's the day! I'm so excited! What's with the cross-eyes?
Everything is so preeetty when it's blurryyy!
Rowan, don't go stealing random sim's drugs. It's dangerous.
I am not on drugs!
You're gonna wish you were in a few seconds...


What are you talking about?
Even Aiden knows! You're---


STOP! STOP I KNOW I GET IT THIS HUUURTS!


Aiden, what are you doing? Your... um... she needs you!


Why are you eating at a time like this!?




Huh... They're for her... That's so nice!




I think Rowan's not so happy with him right now...


*Crosses fingers*


Invisible baby... Here we go again with the glitches...


Nevermind! It's a boy! And he's adorable! He's winking, awwwww!


What's his name?
Lumin.
I'm sorry, I don't think I heard you right... Lumin?
Ya, I was thinkin' when he was born--
Uh oh--
Let me finish! He was all sparkly and LUMINous and I thought it was a nifty name :)
I'm not letting you name any more babies.
D: Fine!
Hey, I'm just saying that you know nothing about logic and since you were never a child you never went to school...
Wait... how can I have never been a child? I distinctly remember attending school!
False memories. They happen.
B-b-but...That's impossible!
(Ok... I'll let her win this arguement for the sake of her sanity) I was kidding... Hahaha... Very funneh!
Oh... Haha... Ha...

*              *              *



Do I have to age him up already? He's so cute!


If I poison him, he'll never have to grow up and he will be with me FOREVER!!!
Rowan NO!


Stop!!!
MUAHAHAHAA!!!


Just kidding! Did I get you? :D
>:( I am not happy with you right now!
That means I did! Yaay!


That's a nervous smile right there. Back away slowly Aiden! Slooowllyyyyy...


EEP! B-DAY TIME!






This is Lumin! Isn't he precious? (My preeecious!!! MUAHAHAHA!) Nobody saw that! He aged up into this girly shirt, but I changed that later on...


Aiden? AIDEN! What are you doing!? Get your phone out of my wall and hang up right now mister!


Mistress? Maybe he's a criminal? Hopefully he's just ordering pizza...


Rowan! Go see what your beau is doing!
Why?
Something fishy is going on!
He's going fishing? Ew! I don't want fish in my house!
You remind me of someone... Now who might that be?


Big decision? Choose carefully. Don't break my Rowan's heart!


Your family is here! I can suspend the rules a little! C'mon!


Not even a goodbye?? Think of your son!


You DESERVE to get your foot caught in the door! Good ridence! D:


He... just drove off like that... What am I going to tell Rowan!? D:


...And that's what happened! I'm so sorry!
Why are you freaking out? It was clearly a one-night-stand kinda thing.
O.O But... Your son!
He's fine...
Why are you eating so much cake all the sudden then?
I can be sad too ya know!
:(


And look! The waffles are still there! A constant reminder of her pain til they go bad and I make her throw them away...



Don't worry, buddy! We'll make it without him somehow!
Ya! And don't forget, you've always got me!


Great! Now you've made him cry!
He can't hear me...
Well he must cuz I'd be crying too!
Meanie. I will get you back for that. -.-




 I've got to admit... She's doing a good job being a mom so far :)
