Drifting for Miles - House 2, Part 6


Freesia got her adult makeover. I kind of adore this hair on her.

Freesia: Doesn't change the fact I officially hit 40.
 

And here's LP! He's kind of weirdly proportioned but cute all the same. Got most of Iosefina's features with his dad's eyes. He also Hates Children which is...not ideal. But he wants to be a Joke Star like his stepmum which I thought was sweet.


Eliana:...Oh, and this is my little cousin-

LP: Ew. Children.

Eliana:....Where did that come from?


LP: Ugh I suddenly hate you. Not only are you smelly, you're a child.

Buckthorn: The smell is probably this shit stew you cooked. God this is hard to chew, it's like rubber.


Freesia's up to Level 8 now, whoop whoop!


LP: This room smells like...child.

No you just need a shower. Dumbass.


Iosefina made a group meal and had a nice breakfast with her sons.

Iosefina: So I am old now, not too long for this-

Buckthorn: We know. We can tell. You're grey, wrinkled, a raisin-

LP: And what's with the sailor cosplay?

Iosefina: I thought it was - thank you very much, boys. Helpful.


LP:...This would be better without him.

Iosefina: Who spit in his sandwich?

Buckthorn: Lol it was me. Serves him right for pushing me out of bed last night.

LP: You what?

Iosefina: Probably shouldn't have admitted that darling.


Iosefina: Even if I'm old now I've still got in on the guitar. Take me home, country roads-

LP: Yes Mum. You're at the exact same skill level as before. Now I've gotta go do something on the other side of the lot.


Freesia: Dammit. There's no plates left and my back hurts. Stupid middle age, stupid sleeping in the ocean instead of on my nice bed-

You've done 6.5 hours outside.


Iosefina: We're still as beautiful as ever, Freesia.

Freesia: Well I know I am.

Iosefina:...

Freesia: Haha. Kidding! Wanna go on a trip?


LP: See? Nice and fixed! Please don't tell our mums...

Buckthorn: I'll think about it. Dickwad.

LP: It's just...my hatred for your age group burns so strong that I want to destroy the things you love the most.

Buckthorn: Is that supposed to be an excuse? It's not helping your case.


Freesia: Hello, hello! Welcome to impromptu comedy at the park..now can people please show up or I'll have nobody to roast!


Candace Elikapika:...Yeah. No. Not impressed.

Other girl: If he even steps up, I'll throw him off the side!

Candace: Hear hear.

Buckthorn still can't socialise. Despite that outgoing trait.


Freesia: Seriously why is everybody weird?

Maximilian: I just said you have a nice ass.

Julia: Yeah she does.

Freesia: Julia shut up you're having an affair with my father, you just made things even weirder.

Maximilian: Oh snap-

Freesia: Eh, I got over it, we're actually friends now.


Pierce over here is another option for Gen 3. He's adorable.


Gemma: OK even my spellwork doesn't do this shit. WTF.

LP: Maybe I would look good with this ponytail-

Gemma: You won't kid. Now one of you make a move.


Freesia needs to collect frogs. So here we go.

Freesia: YAY I love touching unknown weird log slime.

She found 2 in logs and 2 in the pond. We can breed the 5th and then that's done!


Back at home...

Iosefina: We've been here for one hour and you already broke the stove and the dollhouse.

LP: But one of those was an accident!


I got stuff for the house again. We're still at like 35k value, but nearly there.

LP: A television! In the house! I was starting to think that was a myth!

Freesia's doing the classic 'interact with random visitors we'd usually ignore for charisma points'

Freesia: Hey there! I'm really interested in you as a person.

Lilith: Now I know I'm a vampire but I'm pretty sure that's not how humans socialise.


They chatted for a while and actually got on super well.

Freesia: Psh. Humans really are useless. I mean you drink blood, I can drown a bitch...what do they do?

Lilith: I'm so glad you understand.

Freesia: I mean I know I married a human and I love her...but she's not awfully interesting.

Lilith: Not like a mermaid.

Freesia: Or a vampire.


LP:...Sparkly.

That's riveting stuff.


Iosefina: Now why're you glaring at the door like that, son?

LP: I hate that little brat! I can hear him in there, washing that bowl like a pest.

Iosefina: I don't see the problem. He's your brother. I'm gonna be dead soon and your stepmother's a conceited whackjob - I say it with love - you two'll need each other!


Look at this little shit, he knows what he's doing.

Buckthorn: I am a child and I will be listened to. Dollhouses! Diapers! Desmond the Moon Bear!

LP: What kind of demon makes an ASDF reference in 2021?

Buckthorn: Get on my level.


Buckthorn: You will respect me as heir to this household or I will explode you!

LP: What the - you can't make threats you little brat!

Freesia: Come on, LP, be nice to your little brother.

LP: But - this is so unfair!

Iosefina: Life isn't fair, kiddo.


Freesia invited Nalani's twins around again, along with Nalani herself. This is Caroline grown up now. Yes I did change their eyes, Eliana's are green.

Caroline: Nobody does it like me, looking beach-ready!

You're wearing boots.

Iosefina: Please ignore my son, he can't krump for shit.

Buckthorn: I'm doing the rhythm guys!

Nalani: That's OK, I'm just happy to be here. I've grown used to Oasis Springs but I will always love my home...



This is the other twin all grown up.

Freesia: And here we have Eliana, I...won't roast her, she's the teenager daughter of my honorary aunt, wooo!

Eliana: Or is it cos I'm too flawless bb?

We could talk about how you clearly have wide hips and then chicken legs but...I won't.


LP: *sob* Get this kid away from me.

Nalani: So Freesia's stepson grew up too.

Buckthorn: Sad, right? He's triggered by my very existence. Not very appealing to your daughters, huh?


Eliana: I'm not doing it!

Caroline: Well I don't want to marry one of those two!

Nalani: And here I thought our families could finally join together, Freesia...

Freesia: Well. Its fine. My boys still have time to grow out of it. They're all young. They've got potential.


Caroline: Sorry Mum but he's got potential like you've got a full shirt on.

Eliana: LMAOOOO get wrecked.

Buckthorn: I'm unbothered. Who said you needed girls?

Iosefina: I mean you need a someone for your mother's legacy, dear.

Nalani: Would your opinion change if I changed my shirt?

Caroline: That really wasn't what I meant.

Freesia: You should give it a go though, you're 70.


LP: You know what! I'm sick of you two prioritising this brat over me!

Buckthorn:...I'm just vibing.

Iosefina: LP! Where is this coming from?

Freesia: I mean we should have predicted Daddy issues, honey.

Caroline: O__O I feel like we shouldn't be here, Mum.


Iosefina: But don't be disheartened, dear. We did our best.

Freesia: I suppose that's true.

Buckthorn:...Are you sure about that.


Buckthorn: I dream of cannonballs in LP's throat.

Freesia:...I no longer agree with this thought bubble.


LP: How about we take a chill pill and relax, mi madre?

Iosefina: Oh so NOW you wanna talk about relaxing!

LP tanked his relationship with his mum. He definitely yelled more than once and now she has a grudge against him.


Freesia: New routine! Called 'Waht the *squawk* Is Wrong With My Family?'

Bit wordy.


Freesia:...What do you mean, 'welcome'. I've lived here twenty years!

Leila: I had no idea-

Victoria: Nah she couldn't be bothered. Hey girl.


Hyacinth's also here.

Hyacinth: Ugh. People.

Leila: Nice to meet you too, lady. What are you doing here?

Hyacinth: I'm Freesia's sister. What are YOU doing here?


Nani: Whaddup ladies, heard there was a party!

She's married to one of Leila's kids. But you still don't have a reason to be here.


Freesia: Is there a reason you brought her daughter in law, Leila?

Leila: She follows me around everywhere in that bathing suit to prove she 'doesn't seem pregnant'.

Nani: I mean I don't, do I?

Hyacinth: Can I say something? God please let me say something.

Leila: Sure, I don't like her that much.

Nani:...You don't?


Leila: Well. See you round maybe. This was adequate.

Iosefina: Wow I've never been so flattered.


Acorn was having trouble with his old-ass wife earlier today and now...I'm not too surprised.


Freesia:...So I get why the stupid tree grew, but what's with all these Willow Creek-looking weeds?


Buckthorn: I must dance for I am happy and free!

You sure about that kiddo. Is somebody taking you hostage?

Buckthorn: Well I am too scared of LP to go to sleep. I reeeally took it too far today.


Freesia: Hello, only person awake at 3am...I mean, treasured friend!

Lilith: Mhm. Right. I can hear your son inside, Freesia.

Freesia: Well he's got school in five hours, he's suffering enough without getting roped into one of my roasts.

Buckthorn: You kick me, I kick you back. I grow up in a day, y'know. I'll do it, I swear to God.

LP: You little twerp.

Buckthorn: Piece of trash.

Freesia: Could you guys fight somewhere else? Damn.

LP: How about you guys talk somewhere else?

Freesia: My house my rules, son. Lilith, if he cuts his finger you can drink the blood.

Lilith: Damn you are not a good mother at all.

Freesia: I like to call it unconventional. I'm awesome.


Buckthorn: Switch to cartoons right now or I'm telling them you're bullying me again!


Iosefina: I really think our sons might be trash! They hardly spoke to that nice lady's daughters, and all they do is squabble with each other-

Freesia: It's the family way, dear. You knew what you were getting into when we got married.

Iosefina: Except I didn't.

Buckthorn:...Well this is an interesting conversation.


Freesia: Hi Dad! How's the affair going?!

Miles:...

Freesia: Kidding! I don't wanna know, just wanted to make you uncomfortable.

Miles: Wouldn't expect anything else from you.

Freesia: Anyway how the hell are you?


LP: Y O U. The cause of all this strife!

Purple Blarffy: I did what now? I literally sit here all day...yeah I'm bored, just hit me.


LP: So. We meet at last. 

Miles: Uh...hey, London Plane.

LP: It's you who caused me to have this name. You and your tradition.

Miles: More of a gentle, Watcher-prompted suggestion...


Meanwhile Freesia is sleeping in the ocean.

Total Time: 13.5 hours.


Literally the only use for random visitors is for charisma points. This boy Erick was having none of it though.

Freesia:..OK, damn. I guess not then. *cough* Could've given a girl a warning though.


Buckthorn: Who are you and why are you eating our food?

Erick: None of your damn business, kid.

Buckthorn It is if I'm getting a stepfather.

Erick: *choke* Absolutely not! I'm a friend of your mother's - well not really, we just met - oh go to sleep it's 10.30.

Buckthorn: :)


LP got another half-sister. Maybe the babies are what's keeping his Dad from seeing him.

Or maybe Fuifui just dipped, RIP. Also he's old now.


Speaking of old...

Iosefina: Woo yeah wifey you're doing so good!

Freesia: I just picked up the mic. I haven't even started yet. What in the hell...


Should I have gone with this whim? Probably not. But we still have space for a toddler bed somewhere, and I wanna see what other babies these two might create.


Freesia: Well hitting 40 ain't so bad if I can still carry pregnancy this well..but I still have to be pregnant. Oh well, small blessings and all.

So anyway she's having that late-in-life baby.


Sick, are we? Possibly regretting that whim?

Freesia: No I'm just...smelling this hand lotion I use.


LP: Hate....

Freesia: ...Now folks, I love my stepson but that's all he does. That and yell at me about the fishing I used to do.

LP: It was cruel and-

Freesia: I wasn't a fan either, but you do what you gotta do, huh.

Buckthorn: YAWN y'all are so boring.


LP: God am I the only one who does stuff around here?

I mean your mums are working.

LP: I mean the kid. I know he's pretty much useless but he could pointlessly mop up water like a normal child!


Hyacinth: I'm gonna get Freesia to stop spamming me with E-vites to her shitty shows if it kills me.


Hours later 'cos the kids are boring...

Iosefina: Now Watcher am I the ONLY one who does anything around-

It's 10pm, your kids should be sleeping.

Iosefina: Hmph, in my day-


Freesia: Ah, life is just perfect right now, how mellow I am!

Uh...

Freesia: Seriously, all I see are fairies and - those aren't real, I need to sleep off this illness.


Vaea: How rude to leave the radio on!

This dude literally came in and tried to nap here. What in the hell.

Vaea: Not anymore! I'm out! How disrespectful!

GOOD, you dont' live here! And what's with your weird arm. That just looks...off.


Iosefina: Why helloooo there I would like my tarot read!

Buckthorn: She's losing it.

Iosefina: Go to bed you insolent brat.

Buckthorn: Take your pills you old nag.

Iosefina: Heh.

Buckthorn: She's my favourite parent sometimes.


Freesia's back from the ocean. Her outside sleeping time is at 17.5 hours.

LP: Something stinks and it's definitely whatever you spilled. What's in that batter anyways?

Freesia: I can see starfish, son, hold on a second...


Freesia: I could hit the park today! Call it Swimsuit Comedy: Second Trimester Style!


So we're trying it. She has to do this for her daily task anyway so why  not see if we can get tips?

Freesia: Come one, come all-

Salvador: Hush, lady I can't hear the TV.

Freesia:..Great start.


Things did not go much better for the rest of the day. Tried the park and it didn't go well.

Freesia:...Seriously? No-one? My roasts are a masterclass. You'll leave crying!


Freesia: Well fuck it. I've always been my own favourite audience. Even if I am, alas, unroastable.

Are you sure about that.


Mile's sidepiece and Freesia's friend passed away. RIP queen.


Buckthorn: So what do the candles actually...whoaaaaa I feel it!


This is why I'm glad there's gonna be another baby. I love Bucky here but...this face is basically Freesia's exactly. Clone alert. Big sigh.

Buckthorn: Still beauty still grace tho.

He also Hates Children now. RIP to his little sibling. And he has the fishing aspiration. Whoops I peeked at the next house rules. It doesn't really matter since it's not like I can make him do anything about it unless I have Freesia spam 'Fish Together'.

Which I won't because she's busy, he's got loads of time and it'll make her sad.
