The second house tour.

2. Two house tours in one generation? Yeah because my founder wanted an MC wish for
new house fulfilled…and I’ll admit I was feeling claustrophobic in that founding house
with eight sims and no extra room. I need my space.

3. Welcome to the new Spectrum house, the lot is slightly bigger but not the biggest one.
The family has a lot of money for only two generations but it’s not enough to buy the
biggest house lots. So I compromised with the lot, and I think I made it work with the
limited space.

4. The second floor has seven bedrooms, one of for each of the six kids and the master
bedroom for Alice and Coal. It has one bathroom which is all there was room for after
building the bedrooms.

5. Some of the bedrooms couldn’t be the same size but they do work out. I’ve never been one
for much cluttering of my rooms, I prefer the Spartan look. It’s clean and organized. I do
wish I could have put in a much more interesting staircase but straight and boxy is about
all I know how to design.

6. Another angle of the top floor so you can see better how little I clutter up my rooms. I’ve
made a few custom paint and wall treatments which is about all the customizing I do. I
made the hallway paint, Obsidian’s paint colour and bedspread. Also customized Onyx,
Basalt, and Ebony’s bedspreads too.

7. The first floor is mostly taken up by the massive kitchen and stairs to the basement. For a family of
eight, this size of kitchen seems to work. The living room has space for seven around the TV and
two additional chairs for the reading area. There’s Alice’s art studio and the room where the
Alchemy table and cabinet are stored with the gem cutter. The second bathroom also has the
laundry machines.

8. And the first area of the basement, down here are the displays for treasures the family
will accumulate, the nectar machine, and another bathroom. It’s still too small for my
preferences but for now it will do.

9. This house also has a garage, which there was no room for before on the old lot. They
don’t have any cars yet but there is another section of the basement under this garage. I
needed the space for the sarcophagi that Coal found in Egypt.

10. Coal and Ebony together found enough fragments to complete five sarcophagi, two are
the Blessed ones, two are the King’s and one is just a plain one. I haven’t found the
Cursed one yet but there will be more traveling because Ebony wants to explore six
tombs in every location.

11. Alice: Oh, I knew this was coming. I wasn’t looking forward to getting older.
Coal: Don’t worry my love, you’re still beautiful to me.
Basalt: You know how I hate being sappy...but dad’s right. You’ll still be beautiful mom.

12. Alice: Thank you boys. You do know how to make me feel appreciated.
Ebony: Of course mom, we know what you did for us.

13. Carbon: Finally I’m the last one to grow up! I can finally take much better
pictures. I can travel too which is even better. I wonder where I should go first?

14. Carbon: China sounds great, or France, ooh how about Egypt again? I’d love to
get some nighttime shots of the pyramids. Or the Sphinx, that would be
awesome too!

15. Carbon: What will I get into next? I hope it’s something cool like Artistic, or
Eccentric, maybe Excitable. That would be fun.

16. Carbon: Dork clothes? Eww…but I got a good trait. Avant Garde, I was hoping
it was going to be something related to my artistic flair.

17. Making use of the last few days of the fall festival, it was a random wish that showed up
more than once on everyone so I figured I’d give it a try. Let’s see who wins.

18. Obsidian: Who should I cheer for? I don’t see the appeal of apple bobbing.
Ebony: It’s fun big sis, that’s what’s appealing for it. You should try it some
time.

19. Coal: Oh yeah! I win! I beat my boys, feels good man.
Alice: A picture perfect win honey.
Coal: I still got it babe.
And finally, the heir of the Black Generation is…

20. Obsidian Spectrum, first born of five and multiple abductee. Yes, this is the THIRD time they took her.
Obsidian: You must hate me or something. Why do you keep taking me?
Elder: Not at all, it’s because we like you.
