Still Alive Short Dynasty - Chapter 8 - Randomness Couldn't Describe it Accurately

The Alive's arrived home after their vacation in the last update and do, you guessed, skilling!

Meira will be maxing athletic and then Martial Arts. 

"Thanks, writer." 

You are very welcome, Meira.

"That was-you can't comprehend sarcasm now?" 

Sassy Meira is sassy it seems.

 

Mason was writing a book for the medical career, not sure why, and working on maxing writer.
DO IT BEFORE YOU DIE, MASON.
DON'T DIE ON ME YET.
EVEN IF YOU ARE MAXED ON YOUR AGE BAR.

"If Julie eats fifty candy bars out of sixty-two, how many does she have left, Owen?"
"She should worry about her diabetes first."
"Okay, I'll put down that."

Fiona was busy working on maxing Martial Arts because she had the wished too.
So, why the hell not?

So I got this picture of everyone being upset at Mason and I wasn't sure why.
Jax looked pissed and Octavia was her adorable self.

The poor dear cried about it.
WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO, MASON?
"Nothing writer! Nothing at all. My little girl is just emotional, that's all."
My bullshit senses are tingling.

"So I hear you are up for cheating when you're married..."

"What the hell? Absolutely not. You're my father-in-law."

This is suddenly making more sense why Jax is always arguing with Mason in game.
Huh.
Well then.
WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT, MASON?
WHAT THE HELL?

I sent him away to go and max writing while I was fuming.
The game suggested this for the title of the book:
I accepted it. 

Nigel is nearly done with his Lifetime Wish already!
Go Nigel!
Keep skilling!
"Someone take me from this torture..."
IT ISN'T TORTURE.
IT'S YOUR DREAM.
NOW KEEP SKILLING. 

"Oh I'm floating now..."
NO.
NOT SUSIE.
TAKE MASON INSTEAD.
NOT SUSIE.

"Well, I had a good life. I finished my Lifetime Wish, got far in my career, and learned how to paint."
NO.
TAKE MASON INSTEAD.
AT LEAST TAKE HIM ALONG.

Poor Jax.
He was the one that got the most emotional.
EVEN MASON WASN'T.
JUST TAKE HIM ALREADY.
I'M OKAY WITH A FEW LESS POINTS NOW AFTER HE FLIRTED WITH FIONA.

OH IT'S THE RANDOM TOWNIE INSTEAD?
YOU HAVE GOT TO BE SHITTING ME.

Fiona consoled a very sad Owen.
I guess Susie and him were close being kind of just in the household and not really doing much skilling?
Dunno.

Apparently it was his birthday too in which he disappeared in a poof of sparkles before making a reappearance.

Is name is Sparkly Owen now.  He gained the Perfectionist trait.
Oh and he wished to be a World Renowned Surgeon somewhere in his childhood, so he'll be getting a part time job to work towards that in his teen years.

Octavia aged up and she's absolutely stunning!
Damn.
Meira and Mason had some good looking children.

Octavia cried on Owen's shoulder about Susie's death.
Susie basically took care of her as a child because everyone else was skilling.

Oh and it's Fiona's birthday too!
Of course, she had a midlife crisis.
No, you are not divorcing Jax.
No, you are not moving out.

Oh? What is this?
Well, I guess I'll leave it be and see if anything becomes of it.
I mean, he is not on the rainbow-colored slider so it might be difficult.

JUST RANDOM PICTURE.
OF HOW GORGEOUS OCTAVIA IS.
EVEN WHEN SHE'S YAWNING.

Apparently these two were flirting when I kept them from skilling for ONE MOMENT.
Gosh, this update is all over the place.

MORE PRETTY OCTAVIA PICTURES.
"I'm just smiling...."
BUT YOU DO IT BEAUTIFULLY, DEAR.

Here's another one of Jax's amazing paintings though I think it had to be sold because he was so close to a promotion.

"OH he's staring at me."
"Well he better stop staring."
MASON. YOU LITERALLY FLIRT WITH HIS MOTHER ON A DAILY BASIS.
BE QUIET.

So Sparkly Owen went and got a part-time job.
The goal is for him to get as many promotions as possible in the part-time job so he'll be boosted when he ages up to a young adult.

"Did you miss me?"
OH MY GOODNESS YOU AGAIN?
ALREADY?
WHAT THE HELL?
"Our love is eternal."
THEN STOP STEALING ALL THE SHIT.
THE GAME SHOULD GIVE ME A NOTIFICATION OF WHEN TO GET THOSE BILLS PAID.
THAT'S THE SOLE REASON I HAVEN'T FAILED MY FOUR IMMORTAL SISTER'S CHALLENGE.

*Cute picture of Octavia while writer is fuming.*

Ah, and it's prom night for the teens.
Right on Nigel's birthday too.

It also appears it is Seth's birthday.
Whoops.

So Nigel won Prom King while Octavia won Prom Queen and...
turns out she's Owen's love interest.
Huh.
He got rejected by his crush for a dance and then is now Octavia's love interest.
Shrugs. 

Just wanted to show you all Octavia's formal wear because I'm obsessed with how pretty she is.
"Thank you!"
YOU ARE WELCOME.

Oh and Nigel aged up. He gained the adventurous trait.

Another picture of Octavia because, why the hell not? 

 Meira had a wish to befriend Jax again so she pulled out a potion and threw it at them.

It resulted in this very odd stare off.
I guess this is friendship?
What went wrong?
Meira was momma bear.

KEEP SCULPTING FIONA.
YOU CAN DO IT.
JUST DO IT.
DON'T LET YOUR DREAMS BE DREAMS.

Oh these two are friends by the way.
Huh.

Fiona gave Jax a quick kiss before he had his birthday.
Which I forgot to take a picture of.
The only thing that changed was his hair, I swear.
Still hipster though.
"I will never drive." 

Nigel completed his Lifetime Wish!
Yay, Nigel!
Now he can move out.
"Help me..."
Yes, yes.
You can use the bathroom now.

So these two are randomly flirting and I can't wait to see what becomes of it.

Nigel invited a friend over who turned out to be pregnant.
Damn it.

Seth aged up again. He gained the uhm...Technophobe trait.
Yes.
He'll be moving out with Nigel since his relationship with Fiona is distant at best.

So they moved out to make space for the household and we were at a reasonable number again!

Yay! 

That means no one else needs to...
"Oh, I'm dying."

I SAID TAKE MASON.
NOT MEIRA.
WHAT THE HELL?

R.I.P Meira.
Had to cancel a wish from Mason and Owen(?) to resurrect her.

The house is going through some redoing now in the midst of her death.
I'm sad, guys.
This update/chapter was saddening and random.
Thus, is the legacy of Meira Alive.
