Holy crap those dolls scare the crap out of me.

Dorian doesn’t seem to like his imaginary “friend” much, haha. He spends more time avoiding it than playing with it.

And all it does is creep…

Beth has a new hobby! Painting got boring so now she has some bees. Mihran isn’t 100% on board.

Mihran: “So, since it’s been about five years since we’ve left the house without a toddler or a pet with us, how do you feel about some binge drinking in fancy clothing?’

Beth: “I don’t know, how can you be sure one of the kids hasn’t followed us?”

Mihran brushes the mud out of Marlin’s fur before they take off. Samsara isn’t too happy about it.

“1800 hours. The human has chosen to brush one of the mongrels over me.

My revenge is nearing.”

Mihran: “So apparently this is the fanciest place in town.”

Beth: “Eh, it’s better than our kitchen. Besides, the size of the bartender’s rack makes up for it.”

Crappy bar or not, they’re hell bent on enjoying their evening away from home. And enjoy they do…

Mihran: “This sparkly drink makes me feel oddly manly.”

Beth: “…What year is it?”

Beth: “Do you even know the rules to this game?”

Mihran: “Rules?”

They stayed at the bar until closing time and took their time going home – on foot, I might add – before just hanging out outside in front of the house to watch the sunrise.

Mihran: “Don’t move!”

Beth: “Haha, why?”

Mihran: “I think the cat found us. Remain perfectly still.”

So apparently Dorian isn’t the only one who inherited the smolder.

Work it, Lily!

Oho! Look what time it is!

Beth looks REALLY excited, haha! Do you think he turned out cute? 😀

Still got it.

Dorian is now a teenager.

If he’s anything like his dad, prepare for shenanigans.

Is this one of those “let’s take a picture of what’s behind my screen in the exact same lighting and use it as a wallpaper” situations?

I love this house. There’s lots of space for the pets and the kids to crawl around, and plenty of rooms to fool around in, if you know what I mean ;D

#so meta

And who might this be?

Oh, just the FIFTH child I didn’t feel like tracking the pregnancy of because of tremendous game trouble. I hope Beth is done with kids for now. XD

Meet Sol. He’s pretty cute I guess.

Hehe, Rose is adorable.

Speaking of game trouble, the triplets grew up and my screenshots vanished, except for these:

Birthdays make Beth EXCITED

So you can just imagine the awesomest of birthday parties and you’ll be pretty close to how it was.

…Alright, fine, I didn’t even get them cake. Sue me.

The girls grew up! The pets sat still for over a minute! I finally have a family photo 😀

So since the house is getting a little cramped for all these people, I added another floor for the girls’ bedrooms. Why I gave them each their own room, I’ll never know.

Rose doesn’t seem to like hers much, and avoids it at all costs, but Lily and Molly seem content in their respectively pink and industrial bedrooms.

I also added another bathroom for them, because there are never enough toilets for these people.

Even Dorian has to do homework… He doesn’t seem to happy about it.

“It’s a good thing you’re here, little dude. All these girls were driving me crazy.”

“Guh?”

So they kept one of the swings, and it had to be the bright pink one. Sorry, man.

Dorian is taking the girls to the pool.

With a stranger.

And Lily’s in the trunk apparently.

GG Dorian!

While the Powerpuff girls are off to the pool, Dorian is shmoozing with a random woman he found wandering around.

Somehow he convinced her to teach him how to drive.

Didn’t know you were into older women, Dorian.

Dorian: “You’re very beautiful, did I mention that already?”

Belinda: “A few times. Now eyes on the road, I’m pretty sure this is already illegal, it’ll be even more so if you flatten someone’s pet chinchilla.”

Did I mention Mihran is an author?

His last book did well, and he bought his kids a mini arcade.

The claaaaaaw got Dorian a freaky eyeless dragon-thing plush.

Oh, wait, no. It didn’t. :’D

The dogs don’t like the noises.

I don’t blame them.

Sol doesn’t seem to be enjoying it either…

“Darling, I think this one is broken. Did you keep the receipt?”

“Damn, I need a girlfriend.”

Yeah, Dorian, you do. How about a party?

This train set is utterly useless, but so pretty >u<

That toy chest was a better investment than those arcade things were, in the end – the kids are pretty much permanently in costume.

“…dafuq you lookin’ at?”

Mihran’s birthday is coming up!

For the occasion, Beth volunteered to mix drinks for the guests all day, and Mihran humoured his son by inviting the guest’s teenaged daughters (and a few sons, just in case).

He hit it off with this girl right away, her name is Kalliopi.

“Wanna go try out your parents’ bed while they wait for the rest of the guests to arrive?”

Mihran is now an adult! He aged pretty gracefully considering the amount of baby poop he’s had to deal with.

Hehe, he got a cardigan.

“Haha, daddy, your hair looks terrible.”

“Why you little…”

Aaaand she didn’t get a party, but Beth followed soon after.

“Check out my wrinkles! And I actually need these glasses to see! I’m so ready for grandkids!”

How about you raise your FIVE children first, one of whom is still unable to walk.

Since Dorian is gonna have to stick around until all the kids are grown so I can pick an heir, I figured I’d transform his kids’ bedroom into a little loft type-thing. Will probably decorate a little more later.

This was supposed to be for both Dorian and Sol, but since Sol’s still a toddler he can have the crib in his parents’ bedroom for now, and take over the stables (which are currently empty) under Dorian’s little hangout when he grows up.

Also Dorian got himself a skwurl.

what the—

To celebrate their birthdays, Mihran and Beth decided to spend a week in Sunlit Tides.

Mihran decided to leave in the middle of making pancakes. Notice the pan on the stove…

Let’s see how many Shaliks die in a fire in the next installment!
