BFF
Bright and peppy summer, space nerd Liberty, and gamer Travis make up the BFF household, implied in their description to be best friends on the cusp of a jealousy competition over Travis.
But we're not having any of that.
Summer is a mixologist, Liberty works for NASA, and Travis is a programmer and later e-sports gamer.
I also had them adopt Boots from the Maxis gallery.
The three prioritised their careers first for most of their young adulthoods, but eventually Summer finally proposed to Liberty.
They were married that autumn. Don't worry about Travis he's fine.
Boots grew old and passed on but managed to spawn this. Thing. It's called Biscuit.
Liberty got Summer pregnant, and all three went into their adult lives as parents. Travis had been pollinated by aliens! All three co-parent the two kids together.
Alien girl Celeste is a Genius thanks to her otherworldly parentage, and little Valentine is Cheerful, just like Summer.
It's difficult to get a sim to correctly help with riding a bike - at one point the kids were just helping each other.
Celeste made it to her teen years. She's very curious about human lives and their history, so she added the Foodie trait to learn about all types of human cuisine, and got the Archaeology aspiration to find out about humans of the past.
Also Summer got abducted too.
She came back and made an angry drink about it.
Valentine's teen birthday hit and as usual, a huge party was on hand to cheer for him. He got the Clumsy trait from Liberty.
Frequent abductions continued.... this is Summer again.
Summer started up a mixology club for her co-workers to hang out after work. Celeste started getting into electronics.
And she started working on a big project out in the yard.
But Celeste's first interest is in human history, so she came up with the idea for her and Valentine to have a vacation away from home after Winterfest.
Just the two of them in some lost tropical ruins.
The scenery inspired a certain few things.
Back home, Celeste finished up working on her big project and started heading out on solo trips in the cosmos. Travis also got abducted again too fast for me to get a picture.
Thanks to a.... badly worded prompt, her landing was not as graceful.
The BFFs each began reaching their elder years.
With her ship repaired, Celeste made an even longer journey... and became the first of my sims to ever reach Sixam.
She said an enthusiastic hello to a few of her own kind.
I think Liberty got up from a nap to give a toast at Summer's birthday.
Valentine's cool teen club, The GoodTime Teens, got together to party every so often.
And Travis's gamer club met up at the house, allowing Celeste to meet Yuki, and the two were involved in autonomous flirting almost immediately.
Valentine has the most successful club of all, forming solid friendships between the world's various teens. He completed the Leader of the Pack aspiration.
The family spent Splash Day at a cloudy park having barbeque.
Celeste reached young adulthood, adding the Loves Outdoors trait due to her appreciation for her birth planet.
