Mickey and Dina's Heartbreak

As I mentioned in the last post the entire Disney family is utterly wrecked right now due to Adam's actions. Adam stole all of the money that the family won from the lottery plus most of the money that they already had. If this was some stranger Mickey and Dina would definitely call the police and get them involved with getting the money back but since this is their son they really don't know what to do. Mickey blames himself for getting so mad at him the other day when he caught Adam and Karla. Dina blames herself for pretty much never punishing him while he was growing up. Dina was always the strict parent but always super lenient on Adam which all of the other kids would mention but she would just shrug off. Adam was her baby for a really long time and reveled in it until Wendy came along and everything changed. I honestly think Adam was resentful of Wendy and that is why the two have no relationship together even though they lived together and should've had some sort of relationship. He also hates Sage which I didn't even realize until Aubrey's wedding and they were arguing! I think it is because she is Dina's best friend and he was jealous of his mom not spending all of her time with him when she was with Sage.  Like I mentioned Adam was the baby of the family and he loved being that youngest child, even though he was a twin he felt like he had special treatment since he was the youngest. Mickey has been spending a lot of time at Pluto's grave talking to him and trying to see where he went wrong with Adam, and what he should do. 


I don't know why but whenever he mourns Pluto he goes outside of the cemetery to do it. I think how I have it set up is why. I might expand it to see if it will help but for now, he mourns on the outside of the grave.  What is even creepier is when he is mourning Pluto and Pluto's ghost is standing behind him! It's happened a couple times now.

We've seen Steve go off on Adam already but Steve has also stepped up as the oldest kid in the house now, and got a part-time job! Steve now works as a lifeguard and Thursday through Sunday. So on top of being a great student and going to scouts, he now has a job to deal with as well as training and preparing for the military! Unfortunately in order to be the lifeguard he had to quit scouts! So he is still in the scouts club but he is no longer an official member of the scouts! Even though he loved his scouting job he had to quit in order to provide for his family! He has a whole lot on his plate and we definitely need to do a post for him and just see how he's doing, his friendships with Leo and Brittany, and so on. It has been too long. They have been really supporting him during these hard times and been doing whatever they can just to make him smile. 



We are probably going to be seeing a lot of Steve for a little bit because I'm working really hard to get his character traits up. We have enough for responsibility, empathy, and conflict control so if I did age him up right now he would get them but I want him to have all of them. I just feel like Captain America should have them all so we are working hard on manners and emotional control, to be honest we almost have manners but this emotional control is so freaking hard and it's where I've been playing the most lately. Once he's ready to age up we will be seeing more of Adam because the next part of his story happens on his birthday so we might get a little short check in here and there with him but overall Steve's the priority at the moment. 


Audrey has been coming over to hang out with Steve a lot lately. I think she is seeing how mean Adam truly is and has been more focused on Steve lately. Steve's one of those sims that definitely doesn't see it as anything other than a friend coming over to hang out.

Mickey was helping Steve with his homework one night and he was too focused on taking selfies! 









One more thing I'm going to try and do with Steve before he ages up is get all of the character values. I have never done this, I've gotten some here and there but I'm going to try and collect all of them. I just feel like Steve would have them all and they fit Captain America so perfectly that I'm going to try my hardest to make sure he gets them before he ages up. 

Wendy has always been kind of the neglected kid in a way. She didn't have siblings to grow up with since the twins were already teens by the time she was a child. Steve used to play chess and dolls with her a lot and they still do from time to time but now that Steve is so busy trying to save their house he doesn't have much time for her. Dina and Mickey are very loving parents but they are definitely older and doing things isn't as easy as it used to be. So she has been really dependent on Peter's shadow. They have become best friends and they do pretty much everything together. They talk about stories and shows him her drawings. They are really inseparable! She has also become best friends with J's son, (Son's name) and they hang out all the time. As for everything with Adam, Wendy is just a kid so she is upset about what he did but she doesn't fully understand how much trouble the family is really in. I think they have also guarded a lot of it against her since she is just a kid and really wants her to be a kid for as long as possible. Plus the family is also mourning Pluto still, especially Mickey and Wendy.  I thought about putting Wendy in a kids club so she can make more friends her age. I really think she would hit it off with Michelle (Nina's youngest daughter) but at the same time, I feel like Wendy is kind of a loner who loves to create stuff and just tell her stories to Peter's shadows and Antoine. I might find one more boy or friend to step in for her other brother maybe. Then the trio can go to Neverland together when Peter comes for his shadow.

 


Wendy lost her first tooth and they wanted to get some pictures of it!


Wendy is really good at school and keeps up with it a lot herself. Today Mickey actually got to help her put together a school project! It was so cute and something we haven't seen with Wendy yet. Doing this family stuff has been really good distractions for the family since they have been going through a lot of horrible things since Adam left and it has really been helping pull them back together. 













Even though Maleficent and Aubrey do not live in the house anymore they are still family and devastated by what Adam has done. Maleficent and Morgyn have a baby girl and really have no money to spare since they are saving up to buy a house in Glimmerbrook. But she is coming up with revenge against Adam on behalf of her family she just doesn't know yet. Maleficent is at the top of the spellcasting right now and working on her criminal career. So revenge is definitely right up her ally. 

Maleficent was so mad that she needed to go out and blow off some steam! She went to San Myshuno and man did she let go! First, she kept breaking EVERYTHING that she could or take everything she could. Not only was she mad about Adam but she was also impressed that he even did it! This is huge what he did and she never did anything like this or even thought of it, and she is supposed to be the criminal of the family so she let her anger go! Plus she needed to work on mischief for her career and aspiration and her and Morgyn are fighting hard to move into a bigger place before Judith ages up into a child so that she can have her own bedroom. 









It finally hit Maleficent what she needed to do. She needed to get revenge for her family and even though Adam is her brother he did a very horrible thing that he shouldn't have done to their family, especially since it was all over a girl basically! If Maleficent was ever going to do something like this it would have had a good reason not because she wasn't able to see Morgyn. But I don't know about that, she did sneak out and skip school a lot to hang out with Morgyn! 

As soon as Maleficent got home she immediately put Judith to bed and then started working on a potion to turn Adam into a horrible beast! This beast would reflect his actions and since he has been such a horrible Sim she is going to make him look like one too! No one knows that she is working on this potion and if they knew I think they would try to talk him out of it.




Aubrey on the other hand is married to global superstar Orange Bailey-Moon, who is really close to the whole Disney family too. Aubrey has also become a celebrity through her own career and videos she has been making. They want to give Mickey and Dina money for everything that they have done for Aubrey but they refuse to take it! Aubrey thought this might be what happen since Dina and Mickey hate this kind of thing. They prefer to earn all of their stuff. But they are still a family and they never get everyone together like this very often so they enjoyed the rest of their family dinner together. But before Orange and Aubrey left for the evening she pulls Steve to the side and tells him that even though Dina and Mickey turned the money down she has an account set up that has money in it and he can call her if they ever need help, but their parents won't ask or take it if they know it is from her. Steve is also one of those sims that would normally always have to earn everything on their own however this is their family home that they are at risk of losing, he understands that his part-time job alone cannot afford the house, and he still needs to get good grades and workout as much as possible before he goes into the military. So he graciously accepts Aubrey's help. 

Family Dinner







Mickey might be an elder but he can still move it!

Orange is rocking the facial hair now! I must say it really fits him!

Surprise Aubrey's pregnant!

Even Miss Judith was at the Family dinner the only person we were missing was Adam, who we probably won't be seeing at family functions for a really long time!

Aubrey and Steve were talking about the money that he has access to if the family needs money for anything since Adam took all of their money.



Mickey and Dina are both still freelancers and work as much as they can but they are elders now so their energy, bladder, and food suck and always need to do something. These are their golden years and they should be enjoying their granddaughter not worrying about having enough money for their family. All of this stress has really taken a really big toll on their relationship and Dina altogether. She barely gets out of bed anymore. Even though Mickey blames himself, he partly blames Dina too. Dina fully blames herself and is so consumed by this. If it wasn't for Mickey, Steve, and Wendy taking her food I honestly don't think she would even eat. It is so sad! Even during the family dinner we barely saw her and most of the interactions all happened in her bedroom. I'm honestly scared for her because I don't know if this will kill her since she is so sad. I know there are emotional deaths and I haven't had one of those in a really long time. I really wanted her and Mickey to live out their golden years together, and be really long golden years. But I have no clue what is going to happen now that they are in this predicament. I know if she dies from this Adam will never forgive himself since he essentially caused it.

Mickey and Dina finally making up

Since we had Judith at the house we even took the opportunity to get a cute grandparent picture! Even though Dina and Mickey weren't thrilled that their teenage daughter was having a baby they are excited to be grandparents and spoil their grandbaby! She always brightens their day, and they just found out that they are going to be adding another baby to the bunch since Aubrey and Orange are pregnant! I can't wait for Judith to have some friends to play with.
