Fanon:The Genesis Project/Chapter 16

The Wizard Household
Now that we have settled in our home and made it through the winter, it is exciting to announce that Sebastian and I had a baby. His name is Bill. He looks a lot like I did when I was his age, but he has Sebastian's eyes. I am really looking forward to being able to teach him magic. I have a feeling that he will just be fantastic at it like his parents. Of course, we will also teach him how to be a productive member of the community as well. It is actually very fun working as a cashier for Uncle Jim's music store. I get to be around music all day long. I'm sure that Sebastian has the same excitement over at Uncle Alex's bed shop. To be honest, I can't think of anything better than having magic and music along with Sebastian and Bill. I could dare say that I doubt that my life could be any better than it is now.

Sebastian also wanted me to let you know that my new "giddy" view isn't a gimmick. I have been taking Uncle Drew's advice on having a positive view on life as well as just being a nicer guy. So yes I have changed from my grumpy old self, but I can assure you that this isn't something that will go away. Not like the magically spiced sugar that I was drinking so that I could be nice like Sebastian. Now we can both be the nice wizards we should always be. Bill seems to have taken to my old grouchy behavior, but I can teach him to be nice too.

The Harper Household
It seems like all we have been doing this season is have birthday after birthday. Not that I can exactly complain because it just means that all of the babies are getting older. And speaking of babies, it doesn't seem that Chad and Franklin have any plans to stop. Having any more of these little guys around will just drive me nuts. I am planning to just move into an apartment to get away from it all. In fact, I just might take this as a retirement and let Chad run everything. I know that Jim would agree with me now that he has had his elder birthday. It just might be a good time to do it since all of the babies in the other families are coming up to school age. So far it has been pretty simple with only a handful of kids, but I can see the writing on the wall that there will be an explosion as soon as next season. I'm not saying that I don't love the little guys, but I know that I don't have it in me to look after so many at one time.

I do have to admit that I do like looking after my grandkids while their parents are off tending to matters away from home. It's kind of fun being able to play around with them without having to be with them 24/7. Although, I can't exactly say the same for the ones that live here with me. I guess that is all the more reason that I need to get my own place so that I can come and go as I please. In fact, I am going to tell Chad right after I finish this report.

As far as the business matters of the family goes, things have been going pretty steady. The cemetery and school are turning out to be pretty good places even though they don't bring in any money. In fact because I know that there will be a boom of school age children soon, I have made sure that I have enough desks for them to be able to do their studies. The next thing would to see about getting more help to run the place when it becomes too much for just one person. Again, I will let Chad worry about that.

The art gallery is doing pretty well. I suspect that all of Tyler's painting will be sold soon, so I have been doing some of my own so that the gallery can continue having paintings to sell. I also might think about making it more than just a place to sale paintings. I haven't decided how just yet, but I think it would be a good thing to also let it be a place that Sims can come to just appreciate art. Or maybe I should do that someplace else. I not really sure what is best just yet.

Jim's music store is actually turning out to be a nice place as well. I have mentioned to him that he might want to expand it a little. Maybe even make it (or even other place) as a place where Sims can listen and play music. Might be something enjoyable to come to. Jim has always done his own thing so I don't know if he will take to my advice or not. I still think it might be a good idea.

The real estate business is also doing pretty well. There have been a couple of more lots sold, so I have gone out to buy a couple more to have a curtain amount available at a moment's notice should anyone decide they need to buy another lot.

And then there are the apartments that have actually been doing really well. Since I only started out with 4 units and I want to move into one myself, I have decided that I will have some more built across the street. When that is finished, I will move in there probably with Jim as well. Of course, he just might want his own unit too, so that is fine with me. It shouldn't be too hard to get a couple of units ready in a short time.

I feel like it has been such a long time since I have written a report, but it has only been a season. I have been really working hard on settling the shifting of business locations and business expansions. Sean's Fitness is a small little gym, but I can see it coming into it's own. It is a really nice place to get a full workout without having to walk all the way across a big room just to get to the next machine. In fact, I have noticed that there are a few from the apartments above that have been coming quite frequently.

Beds & Beyond is also another place that is coming into it's own. Originally I only had one type of bed. Now I have a couple of types for different needs and likes because you can't have one kind of bed for everyone to be happy. I might even expand the variety some more if things keep going the way they are.

The Carpentry and Rec Center are pretty much status quo for this past season, but I have added a couple of basketball hoops behind the Rec Center. I have also gotten some special grass for the soccer pitch. There seems to be a growing interest to build a sports team, so I figured it would be nice to have a better pitch.

Family life seems to be pretty status quo as well in that there aren't any additions to the family, but that will change very soon because Caleb is very pregnant. The twins – how odd to say that and not have it refer to Drew and myself – have had their toddler birthday. They are really looking forward to their child birthday so that they can go to school. Then I can also focus on all of the businesses some more without having to split my attention. Of course, that might not last long because there is another kid on the way.

Lastly, George had his Adult birthday. I don't know why he insists on wearing a suit and tie when no Carpenter has been so dressed up for no real occasion. I suspect it has something to do with his sire, Lance. Of course, Lance's outfit isn't as extravagant, but I will say that George does look really nice. Maybe he is just trying to show me that he is ready to take over the household. I'm just not quite ready to let go just yet.
