This thread has not had a reply for over 14 months, and I don't understand why.
Here is a random story (sorry for any mistakes and horrible plot).

Engendro Espantoso had just moved to a not very cozy house with his wife. They were not as close as they were before she got back her eyesight. For some reason when Estefanía was blind, she seemed to love him more.
http://i1203.photobucket.com/albums/bb400/crazyokapi455/story1.jpg
Estefanía met a handsome man (compared with her husband) named Goopy GilsCarbo. They had a romance but the house was so small that Engendro heard them while they were "exchanging love" in the bedroom. While Engendro was waiting for the Therapist, Goopy left the house calmly.
http://i1203.photobucket.com/albums/bb400/crazyokapi455/story2.jpg
After catching his wife cheating, Engendro got very depressed. One night a wolf attacked him and he became a werewolf. The next night, he received a phonecall from Goopy asking about Estefanía. Engendro wanted to kill Goopy, but he got scared and decided to study Anger Management to avoid becoming a murderer.
http://i1203.photobucket.com/albums/bb400/crazyokapi455/story3.jpgThe next day, when arrived home, he found his wife and Goopy making out in the front yard. He said hello to her, but she ignored him. Later, Estefanía promised him that she would never see Goppy again, and started to be more affectionate towards her husband. He didn't understand why, but he was happy. One day, after they "reconciled" he heard an almost imperceptible lullaby.

Putting a story together in only four pictures is hard.

Babysitting, Hawkins style:
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Elders/snapshot_999579a5_3befaee6.jpg
"Hey, honey. Everybody's at work or school. And the grandbaby's sleeping. That give you any ideas?"
"What do I need ideas for, when I got you to inspire me to action?"

http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Families/snapshot_999579a5_3befb188.jpg
"She's awake."
"But she's fine. I just changed her and now she's counting her precious little toes. C'mere."

http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Families/snapshot_999579a5_bbefb50a.jpg
"Hey, Baby Girl, you're home early."
"No, I'm not! Don't let me disturb you - I'll just stand here and nurse my baby."

http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Families/snapshot_999579a5_fbefb525.jpg
"Oh, good, we'll carry on then."

(They did, too; they proceeded straight from the end-of-date romantic kissing into a new bout of spontaneous making out, the animation of which overlapped the animation of their daughter swaying peacefully while nursing their granddaughter. I love this family.)

I'm going to have to change Mickey Dosser's aspiration. He stinks at Romance.
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Not%20Drama%20Acres/snapshot_1c639894_9cb85fc6.jpg
"Hey, guys, whatcha doing up here? Is it okay if I sit in the doorway doing an assignment?"
"No, it's not! Scram."
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Not%20Drama%20Acres/snapshot_1c639894_fcb85fea.jpg
"Okay, DJ, what I was saying about...I mean...um..."
"You know what'd be really fun? A pillowfight!"
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Not%20Drama%20Acres/snapshot_1c639894_7cb86036.jpg
"Argh! What part of 'scram' didn't you understand?"
"Just a sec, I wanted to get DJ's phone number."
"Aren't you engaged to that Moonblossom girl?"
"Well, yeah, but she's been attached to the bubble blower all night."
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Not%20Drama%20Acres/snapshot_1c639894_7cb8615f.jpg
"Why Mickey, I'd really like to have my very first woohoo with you tonight, but I'm afraid that pillow fight got me too stinky. See you round, though."

(That's William Williamson hanging around, in case you can't recognize him in the Beatles Heyday hair. I wonder if anybody's made a Nehru jacket I could put on him; though it doesn't really suit the climate.)

Nina Caliente gives a hateful glare at the man known as Alexander Goth, as he enters through the door. The scent of sick bourbon singes her nose hairs.

Slurs and insults become audible. Their fighting grows more aggressive by the second.

Aggravated, the downtrodden male gives her a sharp strike to the head. She ricochets off the wall, and her head rams into the toilet with a crack. She slumps to the ground, breathing but unconscious.

He cringes violently, and stumbles over to the bar to drown his sorrows with bitter liquid. He doesn't remember the last time he has trusted anyone. It just isn't worth it.

We need a :crying" option on the bottom for that one, Fivey.

Ginevra Hawkins had an exciting birthday party, and slept through most of it. It turned out to be a really good party anyway, probably because the hostess, for scoring purposes, was her big sister Gracie, who invited lots of couples. Still, from Gracie's point of view the evening was a bust.

http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Teens/snapshot_99955bc5_7cbb0b75.jpg
Opal Raymond, an exchange student from Whereever Tourists Come From (don't ask me; can't call 'em on the phone, can't keep 'em from coming home from school, and why are they almost all redheads?) had a vacation romance with Gracie's steady, Pollux Stacks! Gracie doesn't have to put up with that crap! She slapped him, then insulted him, then asked him to leave.

http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Teens/snapshot_99955bc5_bcbb0ddd.jpg
Her oldest and best male friend, Frank Munny, and her dad missed all this because they were upstairs playing darts. I love Frank's body language here. There's a globe of the world in his speech bubble. I think he's talking about how it's his oyster.

http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Teens/snapshot_99955bc5_3cbb0f1a.jpg
But I brought Cooper downstairs to serve something more nutritious than birthday cake, and Frank came back down to dance with Gracie and hear all about it. And she spots Pollux over his shoulder. "Oh, crud! I've thrown him out twice now. Why can't he just leave already?"
"Tell your pa about it. He'll get rid of him. Or George."
"I...don't like to. I think they'd get weird about it. Anyway I'm pretty sure George is making out with his fiancee on the porch."
"Well, shoot, then I'll do it!"
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Teens/snapshot_99955bc5_5cbb102a.jpg
"Don't you know when you're not wanted?"
"Get out of my face. It's not your business."
"You mess with my friends, it's my business. She's already told you to get out, so get out."
"I just want to talk to her, explain...Kestrel! C'mon, back me up here. You know me!"
"I know you just cheated on my niece right in front of her. You better get walking."
Pollux and Kestrel had been best friends up to tonight...

Frank is the son of my very favorite sim, a shy and meticulous man. Frank is his polar opposite in those respects, but I find I'm loving him a lot. I can see why girls spam him with attention, but he shrugs it off.

Peace

It was Sadie's idea to bring her mother on their vacation, not Clovis's! Clovis is determined to be nice to Kitty, for the sake of Sadie and the kids, whether she wants him to be, or not. She doesn't really want him to be - she can't forget the way he used to be.
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Families/snapshot_39eb1a0c_5cf76227.jpg
Once in awhile, she just lights into him, usually when he looks a little too long after a bikini. "Dadgum it, I haven't done one thing! Will you just lay off?"
"You think I can't tell what a man is doing in his head? You keep your eyes where they belong, mister!"
"Y'all! Stop it! Andice can hear you!"
"Now look what you did!"
"I'll go after -"
"You've already done plenty! I'll handle it!"
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Families/snapshot_39eb1a0c_bcf762a1.jpg
"Sweetie-"
"I hate Granny! I wish she'd died and not Grampa! Grampa was never mean to you!"
"Shh, it's all right. She's sad and it makes her cranky."
"But she doesn't have to pick on you! You'd never do what she said to somebody besides Mommy."
"Well, but that's just it." Clovis can't believe he's having such a Hawkins conversation. "I used to. She thinks people should wait till they find who they love best, and only woohoo that person. And I woohooed a lot of people till I was sure I loved Mommy best. So she's afraid I'll do it again."
"But you wouldn't!"
"She doesn't know me as well as you do, that's all. And anyway, she didn't mean it. She's upset about Grampa and taking it out on me. Which she shouldn't do, but there you go. Even grannies aren't perfect."
"I don't want her for my Granny."
"She's all the granny you're going to get, so do your best to forgive her. If I can, you can."
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/Families/snapshot_39eb1a0c_5cf7a027.jpg
"How'd you know I wanted one of those?"
"Oh, I dunno, ma'am, it can't have been because of the way you kept coming back to look at them!"
"Well - thanks, son. It was nice of you."
"What, am I officially in the family now?"
"Don't push it."

Mrs. Crumplebottom had issues with Daisy's and Vasyl's end-of-date kiss.

http://thumbs2.modthesims2.com/img/7/1/8/6/1/6/4/MTS_Fivey-1304613-snapshot_7c9e1052_bcf8d27b.jpg

"That is an INAPPROPRIATE THING to do in public! You should be ashamed, young lady!"

After the old bat walks off, Daisy complains to her boyfriend about it.

"What the heck is her problem? That was an innocent kiss."
"Maybe she has a problem with the fact that it wasn't done in wedlock."
"Well, that's silly! Of all the things she should be outraged about, she gets mad over me kissing someone I'm not married to! Does she expect me to be married as a Freshmen in college? It's not like we're having an orgy!"
"I know, darling."
"Yes, we aren't even engaged, but it's not a big deal!"
"We aren't engaged yet."
"Huh?"

http://thumbs2.modthesims2.com/img/7/1/8/6/1/6/4/MTS_Fivey-1304610-snapshot_7c9e1052_1cf8d29c.jpg

Daisy, Daisy, Give me your answer do.
I'm half crazy, all for the love of you.

It won't be a stylish marriage.

It's time for the last surviving Thyme girl to go to college, and her older sister comes, with her fiance, to help her pack and move into the residence with them.
"Don't worry, Mr. Thyme. I'll take care of both your girls."
"By now I hope they can take care of themselves, but thanks."
"You going to be all right here on your own?"
"Have to be, don't I? You know, sometimes I could swear Spring's still around."
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/4%20pics-1%20story/snapshot_bb268ccc_9d0cac8e.jpg
Rosemary screams. "That's because she is, Dad! Can't you see her? Stop it! It's not my fault you didn't get to go to college!"
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/4%20pics-1%20story/snapshot_bb268ccc_bd0cacff.jpg
Summer, who was the sister closest to Spring, gets all excited and tries to establish communication, with no result. "Stop it," says Lisandro. "There isn't any ghost. Everybody's just emotional and upset right now."
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/4%20pics-1%20story/snapshot_bb268ccc_dd0cad1f.jpg
"Oh, you think so, do you?"
(Lisandro's Knowledge, but Hi still had to clean up a puddle on the floor near here after he left, and since Spring burned to death it can't be her doing. She's a really angry ghost, because they had to sell her bed to make ends meet; plus, now her last sister's going to college and her old boyfriend, Lisandro's best friend, just got engaged. So I can see why she feels cheated.)

Having hit the fruit punch a little too hard, Jovita Casa decides that her old friend John Amos Aerius, incoming freshman, is the perfect venue for a revenge flirt after that little incident with the cow mascot. Her fiance George goes satisfactorily ballistic.
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/4%20pics-1%20story/snapshot_999917fa_1d15c5b0.jpg
But then she catches John Amos with Rosemary Thyme! "How dare you!?"
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/4%20pics-1%20story/snapshot_999917fa_fd15c5cf.jpg
"Um, hi, Jovita, remember me? Your old friend? Who went steady with Rosemary from the first day of middle school? You've got me a little confused right now but none of that is Rosemary's fault."
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/4%20pics-1%20story/snapshot_999917fa_5d15c61d.jpg
"My life sucks! Everybody hates me! I hate everybody! How did I get into this situation?"
You wouldn't listen to reason when people told you George never laid a finger on that stupid cow mascot, and brooded, and did something stupid, that's how. Get over yourself and start apologizing.

These images are slightly dates, in the way of a drunk girl on her twenty-first birthday reminiscing about Prom. So, not that old. Anyway, before Ponsy had his whole divorce episode, and before Ecky graduated.

----

Eckhard was invited by Theo and Brenda to come over. They haven't seen their little miracle for a while, since he's been away at college. Ulysses, their first child, is making his own babies now and has moved into the home. Why not have a little get together? Of course, Theo being an elder...

http://thumbs2.modthesims2.com/img/7/1/8/6/1/6/4/MTS_Fivey-1316431-snapshot_9cd6b22b_5d1ffe85.jpg

"So, Lyss got married recently. It's kind of awkward, because of my past history with his wife, but we've gotten over that. Marriage is nice, isn't it? I mean, I know people like me typically hate marriage, but it's a free pass for constant sex. Sure, with one person. That's why you stick a ring on the hottest one. Can't complain when your wife is a knockout."
"Oh, uh, okay."
"...so, met any nice girls yet?"
"Uh, dad..."
"Not yet? I can try to hook you up with some babes, if I remember where I put my little black book. I haven't touched it in forever, but I'm sure some of the chicas there are still ready to-"

http://thumbs2.modthesims2.com/img/7/1/8/6/1/6/4/MTS_Fivey-1316432-snapshot_9cd6b22b_9d1ffe77.jpg

"Dad!"
"Huh?"
"I'm gay. I don't like women."
"Really?"
"Yes."
"Ponsy-gay or actual-gay?"
"What?"

http://thumbs2.modthesims2.com/img/7/1/8/6/1/6/4/MTS_Fivey-1316430-snapshot_9cd6b22b_5d1ffe80.jpg

"Well, you see, when your older brother Ponsonby was a teenager, he had a boyfriend, right? One day, he approached your mother and I, and went on this giant rant about how 'he is a proud bisexual' and how 'you and your wife will never understand our love' and that 'we shouldn't judge him because that's discrimination' and other bullshit like that. It was weird, because we never asked anything about it. Or cared. From what I understand, he cheated on the boy with a bunch of women, married a woman, and is now cheating on that women with a bunch of other women. I think he also has a disgust for gayness, now, considering all the hate speech he was expressing the other day. That's just callous. I'm allowed to judge him on his lack of loyalty, right?"
"Er...I said I was a homosexual, not a blathering attention whore. There's a distinct difference."
"So, you're real-gay?"
"Yes!"
"Oh, okay then! Just wondering. So...met any nice boys yet?"

Eckhard sighed. He was typically a cordial person, but he didn't really want to talk about his love life with his dad. Politely excusing himself from the conversation, he decided to give himself some catharsis by playing video games.

Well, this went about as well as could be expected. "PREGNANT?" Trent roars. "And you - and he - love? What the hell do you know about love - you - you - I ought to - "
"Daddy, stop! Mom - it's not true. Why are you saying this? Did he threaten you? Of course it's Dad's, don't be stupid -"
"I'm sorry, Tina," says Trisha. "It's not physically possible for it to be your dad's. Ask him, if you don't believe me. He's my best friend, but we're not lovers. I realize now we never were."
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/4%20pics-1%20story/snapshot_db63601c_7d3ed144.jpg
"Why are you even still here? Get out! Nobody wants you here! You're a terrible evil person and I, I hope you choke on a fish bone! I hope you drown in marinade! I - I - just get out!"
"I can't leave yet," says Julien. "Your mom can't walk all the way to my place in the snow by herself. The cab is on its way."
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/4%20pics-1%20story/snapshot_db63601c_dd3ed21c.jpg
Somehow it hadn't even occurred to Tina - or to Trent - that Trisha leaving now, tonight, was the logical end to this mess. Trent breaks down for the first time. "This is for the best," Trisha says. "You'll see."
"You're right," says Tina. "Don't let the door hit you in the butt on your way out!"
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/4%20pics-1%20story/snapshot_db63601c_7d3ed238.jpg
"Don't worry, Daddy! You don't need her! You've got me!"
"Yes, I do." She's right, Trent reflects. Tina's a bigger part of his life than Trisha ever was. What will he be missing? A cook. Someone to sit next to watching cooking shows and not talking. He'll barely notice she's gone. Which may be the worst part of all this.

Louie is introduced to Diamond's mom.

"You must be Natalie?"
"Yeah...oh, so you're the man I've heard so much about! You're a hunk. I can see why my kid let you knock her up."
"Um, thank you."
"If you're bored, and not doing anything later..."
"Mom!" hisses Diamond, in the background.
"What? I was just asking."
"That's my fiance!"
"So?"

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v512/swallowmeup/snapshot_9d58d0d8_9d58d175.jpg

"Guess what, Lou? I can call you Lou, right?"
"Sure, I suppose."
"Well, I'm pregnant!"
"You don't say."
"And my daughter is pregnant, so we're like, both pregnant! Isn't that great?"
"I bet your husband is happy."
"Ew, I'm not married!"
"...then who got you pregnant?"
"This one guy I know. Don't remember his name. It'll come to me eventually. Of course, it could be that other guy's. You know how it is."
"Not really."

"Your mom is weird."
"She's very proud of her promiscuity."
"What was that, dear?" chimes in Natalie.
"Nothing, mom."
"Oh, okay. I'm stealing this food, if anyone cares. You guys look healthy enough. I'm eating for two, so I need all the food I can get!"

"She knows you're having twins, right?"
"Haven't told her yet."
"Let's not end up like that, okay?"
"Fine by me."

When Mary's sister Madge dies, Pierre is right there for her. She's known him forever. His late wife was her closest friend, apart from Madge, and of course they all lived through the Bad Old Days, the end of which - heartbreakingly - coincided exactly with Mary's early widowshood. Mary finds herself talking more about the details of her marriage to Frank than she ever has. They talk about Marie.
They talk about love. Because it's all about love.

They go home, and she takes him to the studio to hear some rough cuts of the next album which, like all her albums, rise naturally out of her life. Which means Marie's death is there. Of course they dance during "The Widower's Waltz." She doesn't plan what happens next, exactly. It's just - the next natural thing.

"Um. I called you Marie, didn't I?"
"Of course you did. And I called you Frank."
"They were - you were - I was - "
"Yes."

"It's all right, Pierre. It's not betraying Marie if you're reaching through me, to her."
"That's what you've always been doing, isn't it? With all those young men that parade through here. You've been trying to get to Frank."
"And you finally let me reach him. Thank you."

He probably shouldn't have slipped into the hot tub with Cara Webb.

They met yesterday, yet somehow it cumulated to this. Not to say that Jean didn't enjoy the attention, as he most certainly did, but it just seemed so fast. She didn't seem comfortable either, even though her hand slowly gravitated down his thighs. It seemed as if she was forcing herself. This isn't how it's supposed to happen, and it shouldn't happen like this. He could feel it. He needed to ask.

"What's wrong?"

Cara glanced up at the alien eyed boy. She forced a smile, and replied there was nothing wrong. He continued to stare. Eventually, she leaned over and whispered to him her experience with this strange realm. How she lost her virginity to boy who was lost in the world of gender identity, the loneliness of being an eternal teenager in a changing world, and exactly why she had a seething hate for a certain ginger. It was really too much for Jean to take at once.

Shaken, Jean-Baptiste climbed out of the hot tub, and reached for his Geometry homework. Henri joined in, unaware of the events that took place. Cara soaked quietly, and contemplated the consequences of her words. She poured her heart out to the Jacquet boy. He won't see her the same way, that's for sure. What if he never wanted to speak to her again? No...he wouldn't do that. There was good in him.

Maybe it was for the better.

Okay, now the phantom disagreer's just being mean! The amount of work that sequence represents deserves respect all by itself.

On a lighter note, Monica Bratford's assault on Fortress Vidcund resulted in unconditional surrender and mutual victory. But at what cost?

"That was - oh, my. I hope that loud music downstairs drowned us out."
"I don't care if it did or not. DJ must be back from her final. She said she was going to throw a toga party as soon as she finished."
"Seriously? I just lost my virginity at a toga party in a sorority house?" He starts to laugh, and snuggles into her arms, and they both go to sleep.

"Monica?"
"Mph?"
"I can't find my pants."
"I threw them on the floor over - oh. Oh, for - I'm going to kill somebody." She sits up, and then, starts to giggle. "On the other hand, it is a toga party -"
http://i231.photobucket.com/albums/ee238/PeniG/Simshots/4%20pics-1%20story/snapshot_fc639893_bda15aca.jpg
The pants are nowhere to be found on the second floor, and the culprit has at least left Vidcund his (extremely modest, of course!) underthings, so Monica keeps him company and they defy the prankster together. But the "toga" part of the party does leave something to be desired. "I know, but it's snowing out there! I wasn't tramping across campus in my drawers just to satisfy a party theme."
"I do not understand the theme. The toga was a distinctively Roman garment, while the Greeks wore the chiton. And underwear and pajamas are good substitutes for neither."

"I swear to you, Dr. Curious, if I knew where your pants were, I'd tell you."
"A likely story."
"No, it's true."
"And you call yourself a college student!"
"I am an excellent student; but the social aspect is still difficult for me."
"Yeah, me too. Well, take it from me - you can't afford to be the narc who gives the game away. It's getting late and my son will need me to read him his story, so as soon as I finish these chips, I'll volunteer to tune that piano and find my pants hopelessly wadded up and fouling the strings."
