it's your day: Sienna

June 2, 2087. Welcome, baby Sienna!

* A very sim-inspired birth for Aliyah's bundle of joy, because I didn't feel like posing sims. But then I'm glad I did it this way, because it came out quite amusing! 


Aliyah finally went into labor late in the evening, a few days before her due date. That was just fine with her—she was feeling restless and bored after being forced into early maternity leave. For four weeks, she hasn't been allowed to do any more work than answering phones part time, so she's actually looking forward to the exhausting job of motherhood.

May 23, 2087. Summer Phoenix is 21. Evie Bachman is 23. 



Day and night, Summer has been diligently rehearsing her lines for an audition. She will read for the lead role in a fun vampire movie, which is expected to be campy in a clever way and full of fun stunts. The heroine is headstrong and sexy, which she is hopeful she can pull off. She's even more confident about the fight scenes—mid-air, the script says. They'll be hoisted up on wires.

that fateful summer

This story is less about what's happening now, and more about what happened before. Luisa Palmer is turning one year old today—now let's talk about who she is and how she got here.


Laney Thompson first laid eyes on her Greek dreamboat on an otherwise unassuming Friday night, while out on a bar crawl with her sister. The Greek Dreamboat was Ingrid's name for him, although Laney wouldn't disagree that he was a dreamboat. That he was hers was another question. Laney knew that Andreas never belonged to her even for a moment, and sadly he never would be.

May 5, 2087. Dallas Deppiesse is 22. Lucy (Harris) Deppisse is 20. (Summer Phoenix is 21, Tyler & Beau Jackson are 23, Maya Jackson is 25.)


Friends and family of the newlyweds gathered outside in the church yard gardens for dinner and dancing. They couldn't have asked for a lovelier spring evening—minutes before sunset, seventy degrees and mostly clear skies with a rose-scented breeze from the adjoining gardens.

On a lovely spring day, at Little Southern Chapel in Fort Palmetto, South Carolina, officiated by Pastor Matthias Collins, long-time sweethearts Dallas Deppiesse and Lucy Harris will be wed.

the rush

April 2087. Tyler Jackson is 23. Maya Bunch is 25.


There was an abandoned mine shaft at the back of the Jackson property that leaked cool air and a dank smell from its barricaded opening. Tyler hadn't known about it when they bought the property, and in fact, wasn't even sure whether this fell on their side of the property line at all. But who wouldn't wonder what was inside? It was only a wonder that nobody ever attempted to open before it in all this time.

Until today, a casual hike and just the right pair of lovers—him full of spontaneity and her full of curiosity, his brawn and her brains—where would life take them together if not into a mysterious cavern?
