Blossom Hills Asylum - FINAL UPDATE!! 16/4!

[Kae]

Katie, I don't blame you for cheating... life gets really hectic in an asylum, especially when there are so many ghosts! I'm having a hard time keeping the new asylum-ees alive, now that there's a complete absence of cooking skills again. The fires and starvation and lack of beds and lack of toilets sure makes it easy for ghosts to swoop in and make a kill!

[Antilife]

AHHHH! OMG katie!! I can't even keep track of everything going on! How many times did the sims die, and how many times were they reasurected! Holy crap!!!

Boggles the mind......jeez. LOL! Very entertaining nonetheless! keep it up, your almost there then you can rid your-self of insanity! ;D

[Shell]

WOHA!! Chaos raining at the asylum LOL (I would have cheated to LOL)

[Dizzy]

Oh my goodness! So much action!

And Leon just broke the record from Aimee... as he almost died three times with in a very short time O.O

yer Ghosts are MEAN! Scaring everyone and trying to kill them.

[Piñacolada]

Kae: Thank you for letting me off!! Hehe. And yep, it's more then hectic! Stressful playing, am just constantly taking pictures as all chaos reins around me!! Lol.

Anti: Haha I did try and warn you before you read it! And yep, am reallllyyy trying to get Parker promoted now so I can end the madness!! But it was so hard that update what with Gabriella to look after and Leon being threatened by the social worker unless he did his homework, so they took up all of his spare time! Hoping it might get a little easier now Leon's grades are getting back on track and Gabriella is nearly a more self-sufficient child... And Camille better have no more surprises on the way for us!!

Shell: Hehe thanks, it was just too much to take! I couldn't not cheat so am glad you agree!

Dizzy: I know! And poor Leon! It was all thanks to Aimee as well!! She was literally following him around to scare him wherever he went, very mean ghost!

[Kae]

As for me, I got the unfortunate knowledge sim with a want to max seven of her skills, which is probably never going to happen. I would be able to do it in normal standards, but she hardly has time to skill for her job taking care of these people!

And in regards to your comment to Dizzy, I don't blame Aimee for being mean. You put her in this house where she *gasp* has to take care of herself and dies twice shortly after she arrives. She's mad at you, Katie! x3

[Kate]

Oooh I like long and picture heavy! Big update, hehehe. ;D

Awww Gabriella... welcome to the asylum of boys *cough* I, err, mean fun.

I love the picture of Leon where it says his grades are slipping and he's got a big smile on his face - I don't think he seems to care!! Somebody *cough* Parker *cough* better teach him the importance of good grades!

Teenage Leon is sexy ;D Being a Romance Sim he'll have ladies eating out of the palm of his hand! He still needs to learn about the importance of homework though.

OMG crisis as the end! I've never seen so much terrible fortune in my life Completely understand your reason for cheating... soon there will be no patients in your asylum left I think that is why I removed the graves from my asylum??!

Loved this update Katie!

[Piñacolada]

Kae: Aww don't say Aimee is mad at me! I'll be too scared to play now!! Lol.

Kate: Update was too big, I was exhausted when I finally finished it! Lol. Poor Gabriella, what a life to be born into...
And that made me laugh too! The fact that Leon kept coming home with "dreadful" grades according to the pop up notice, but still with a big grin on his face! Parker is trying his best to give him morals but he's a busy guy! And Camille keeps undoing all his good work!! Lol.
I couldn't believe the events at the end either, was bad enough having Aston and Leon laid out on the floor.. but then Paker setting the kitchen on fire?!? Was just too much to bear! After I got it all ironed it I was so close to deleting the graves.. but I couldn't do it, am too close to the end!! Am hoping to make it, ghosts and all as I think I've cheated enough! lol. Keep your fingers crossed for me!!

Will hopefully have an update this weekend, if there's anybody left to make an update with!!

[Piñacolada]

Ok people of Cookie Fest... this is the LAST CHAPTER of the Blossom Hills Asylum!!

Thanks to everyone who has read and commented on this, I've enjoyed it (mostly!)

Once again, WARNING it is quite long and quite pic heavy!

But I invite you all to read on for one last time...

Back in the asylum, after the pizza had all been eaten, Parker tried to salvage and serve up his turkey dinner!
Though it didn't look so appetising since it was cooked in a fire!

Relationships are starting to get strained as the next morning Paker decided to try and lecture Aston for breaking the toilet again...

Parker = "It's always me that has to fix it!"
Aston = "Talk to the hand..."

Now Leon is a teenager, he spends his time either staring at himself in the mirror...

Or on the exercise bike!
He has his priorities in life I suppose...

Oh great... why can't that be one of his priorities?!

It just gets better and better...

But Parker is working such long hours at the moment!

It's dark when he gets home... accompanied again....

Bah!

Thankfully though he manages to spare some time to help Leon study...

But that does mean that poor smelly Gabriella is left to wail alone in her crib!

Not now Sarah!! Parker is trying to save Leon from the social worker!
But amazingly despite Parker being distracted, Leon continues to study on his own...

Phew!
But as he finishes it and stands up, he does realise he owes most of his successes in life to Parker...

Oh my god?! Who's that??!

Not Jason!!

And not the bathroom again! Parker can never squeeze his way in to save the day!!

Oh thank goodness! Come onn... We can't lose another one!! And especially not Jason!

Oh.... no....

Jason?!?

We were so close to the end!! You made it so far!!

RIP Jason...
At least he is re-united with Polly...

Poor Gabriella, facing so much so young...

Jason's death is badly received by the asylum.. And even shocks Camille into doing some parenting!

Not sure how much washing Gabriella in a filthy bath-tub can help though!

That's much better, feeding her as well! Go Camille...

Looks like all that working out is paying off...
Slide tackle!!

Well done Leon!

Well that's some improvement I suppose! We can't hope for a miracle...

Oh my goodness! Come on Parker... make the right decision!!

Yayyy Parker for having morals!! Promotionnn!!

Woohoo Parker!!
But why did you have to bring her home with you again?!

A brief post-promotion rest from working gives Parker some more chance to spend with Leon...

And Gabriella...

Although apparently that isn't going so well!

Something that is going well though is Camille and Aston's re-ignited relationship!

Poor Josh...

Ooo well done Parker, think it's a slight improvement on the last one!

Ohh come on Leon, keep at it!
Hang... what was that on his face?! Close up please...

Eugh!! Leon! How did you not notice that all the time you spend looking in the mirror?! Poor Leon
He's not gonna get any laydeez looking like that!

Parker has another decision to make at work, though it doesn't seem quite as important as the last...

And it wasn't...

We don't want enthusiasm, we want a promotion!!

Poor Gabriella... she seems to be doing even worse than Leon did!

Camille is just too wrapped up in Aston to care!

Wow! Parker's work friend making herself useful for once...

Thank goodness!

Gabriella's first day at school...

I've got my fingers crossed she does well, but I can't say am hoping for much!

Phew! That's better news!
Shame about his face though But he as brought a female home from school! So maybe it won't hinder him as much as first thought...

Oh dear...

Oh dear!

Despite having a loving father, Gabriella seems prone to a lot of tantrums!

Parker manages to calm her down for a brief moment though to get her to do some studying...

That is until there's a familiar cry from the living room!

Not Aston again!!

There'll be nobody left?!?

Plead harder than you've ever pleaded before Parker!!

YESS!! WOOHOOOO!

Aston lives again!!

The next morning poor Gabriella seems to be feeling the strain of living in the asylum... Parker tries his best to cheer her up...

That evening Camille helped Aston cheer himself up and forget about yet another near-death experience!

A little later though, like father like son... it was Leon's turn to collapse in the bathroom again!

Parker was at work!! So *cough* it was up to Camille to try and save her son!

Meanwhile Gabriella just wanted to get a shower...

Phew!! Well done Camille!!
But instead of a loving hug, as Leon cleaned up his pre-death puddle, Camille shooed him out the bathroom so she could get a shower!

What a family...

Yayy Parker!! It was worth almost losing Leon... we must be almost there now?!

Although some things don't seem to be improving that much...

Aston decides to take a leaf out of Josh's book when he can't get in the bathroom to take a shower!

And Gabriella continues to show she fits in quite well...

Puddle-jumping indoors! Thanfully it was just a puddle from the broken bath-tub, nothing too sinister!

Surf that couch Leon!!
What teenagers will do for fun when they live in an asylum ey?

What is it with Camille playing outside in her underwear?! At least the weather is a little better this time... But poor Gabriella! She's hardly setting a good example...

At least Gabriella has a decent father figure!

Wow go Parker!

Best one yet...

Yayy Aston! Show Gabriella how it's done...

And yayyy Leon! That's what we want to see!!

Even better! There is still hope!

Argh! Leave us alone god dammit!!

Just when it was all going so well...

Quick Parker!! Thank goodness he wasn't at work...

Leon is working on his sports skills again...

At least he's good at something!

And he has a caring side to him too...

Feeding the family while Parker is at work! Phew...

Aww...

You're never too old for a father-son moment!

Oh my goodness... come onn Parker... make the right decision...

Ooo! No promotion, but that could come in handy to help him set up life in the real world pretty soon...

Not again!

Oh boo...

Eh? Camille gained cuisine enthusiasm while asleep with her face in a plate full of half-eaten, gone-off omlette?! Interesting...

Another day, another twist in the tale for Leon's school report!

Gabriella doesn't seem to be having his luck though...

She doesn't want to show anybody how bad she's doing!

It doesn't go completely un-noticed though...

*Gulp*...

Yikes! They grow up so fast...

Growing up even faster though is Gabriella!

Somehow it went alright...

No surprises, she has turned into a pleasure sim!
After a quick change and a raid of her mum's make up bag, here she is...

Speaking of her mum, good old Camille!

Leon?! Why did you knock the trash can over?!

We love you.. but don't push it!

That's better, at least he cleared up his mess...

But a little later when he finishes a painting he's working on, it's clear Leon may have some issues...

Creepy...

However, before he has time to make that all important transition into adult-hood... I bring you...
*drum roll*

The moment you have all been waiting for....

There were times when I thought we'd never get there....

Or if we did, Parker would be the only one still alive!!

But although we've lost a lot along the way... I ask you to please applaud wildly for...

Parker is FREEEE!!

So, there you have it! Parker is fulfilled! The asylum has served it's purpose...
It's been tough, but there have been some good times...

Thanks to everyone for reading

I don't think I quite have the picture skills/imagination of Kate, or quite as many patients left over at the end as I was hoping!
But... if anybody would be interested in seeing what happens to the Blossom Hills bunch as they start out life in the "real world" let me know...

Goodbye from the Blossom Hills Asylum!

[Kate]

It's over! *sniff* These Asylum Challenges fly by so fast!!

I must say I have throughly enjoyed reading about the Blossom Hills asylum! Parker was an awesome controllable, having to save the lives of most of the patients and raise two kiddies.

I would indeed love to see how the few remaining patients cope with being flung into what we call "real life"

[Piñacolada]

They sure do!

Thanks Kate I've got really attatched to Parker so I think am gonna have to continue playing with him now he's moved out, until he gets to a ripe old age! And maybe he'll even get to raise some kiddies of his own...

And you would?? I haven't got any major ideas... Just want to use them to try out Apartment Life really, been so busy playing the asylum every time I go in game I haven't really had a play around with that yet! And I thought the sims that are left would be the perfect guinea pigs since I've got quite attatched to all of them. They're all special in their own way.. Even Camille! Hehe

[Antilife]

AW! Yes, please do. I'd send Leon and Gabriell to college because i bet they need it a lot. And Camille, Josh, and Aston can work out that crazy love triangle. LOL! WEll i'm glad you don't have to suffer with them anymore, katie! But i bet you'd have a lot of fun just controling them like normal crazy sims. ;D

It was great, i loved it! I'd love to see what happens!

[Piñacolada]

Glad you'd like to see more anti

I don't actually have the university expansion pack installed anymore! I didn't re-install it after I lost everything as I didn't want to over-load my laptop again and it doesn't seem to add that much to my game (I tend to find the uni part a bit dull after the first million times).
But am sure I'll be able to work the love triangle out!
And it'll be weird to actually control them instead of just watching them do strange things!

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for reading

[Dizzy]

awwww... it's over It was a great asylum.. in the way of asylums that is... kekeke

Do you think you'll play Parker any more... give him a normal life now that he's free of the maddness?!?!?!

[Shell]

Its over? (Wonders if i can throw a Gabie like fit and get it back LOL)
I would love to see what happens to them when they all get out, esp Parker and the kids!

[Piñacolada]

Hehe thanks Dizz!
I think I owe it to Parker to let him lead a "normal" sim life for a while now! So yes

Lol and you can try if you like Shell[/bl! But you won't get anywhere with it
I moved Parker out yesterday, so I may be able to show you a few pics of what he's been up to at the weekend...

[Kae]

I don't think I'll ever get to the end!
My sim wants to max out seven stats, which is pretty impossible considering the fact that I have to have a job for her (or everyone would starve!), there are over eight ghosts wandering around all night, and she has to keep the asylum at least somewhat clean so they're not always complaining about their environments being low.
Crazy. But congratulations, Katie!

[Piñacolada]

Thanks Kae!

Good luck with yours! Sounds like you're gonna need it!!

Ooh I'm looking forward to this

[Piñacolada]

Apologies for not getting a Parker update done this weekend.. I was just too busy

He is doing well though! So hopefully it won't be too long...
