Goth Household: Chapter 7, Part 5

Final part is up for the Goths. Things are rockier than I had anticipated. The Caliente sisters have started working in the Goth mansion and Bella has disappeared. Mortimer reflects and Dina delivers some uncomfortable news to the Goth children.

TW: This part contains sim death and afterlife depictions

Mortimer is busy raising his logic skill outside when he spots something. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Nope. It's a physics defying meteor heading right towards him! Doesn't even make a hole in the house.

Turns out fate overrides my story plans and the meteorite lands with a cloud of dust on top of Mortimer. Alas the meteorite is not worth any simoleons. Here comes Grimm to seal the deal. Unless someone can convince him otherwise...

Looks like Grimm is waiting for Milton to descend the steps before going over to Mortimer, how polite of him. Dina comes outside and is immediately struck by how lovely and clean the air is. Eventually she realises Mortimer has been killed and grief and panic set in.

Since she is feeling flirty Dina goes and attempts to seduce Grimm into spearing Mortimer. He just laughs at her. Milton may have disliked his father but witnessing his death is scary, especially as no one knows where him mummy is. He has a cry and even Grimm feels horrified at the situation.

Mortimer: Oh that was close, better post about it

Olive: Really

Mortimer: My followers will love it, wait, no signal

Olive: Can't get signal in a place that doesn't exist physically

Mortimer: Huh

Olive: You died

Mortimer: Take me back, I'm a global superstar, I'm not finished

Olive: It doesn't work that way, strap in superstar

Mortimer: Strap in? What is going on

Olive: Can you tell me what was happening here

Mortimer: Bella was complaining

Olive: About what

Mortimer: I don't remember

Olive: Why not

Mortimer: I guess... I just stopped listening to her

Olive: Why? You were in love

Mortimer: We were, for half a minute

Olive: I don't think a couple of decades of marriage is half a minute

Mortimer: What do you know? You hang out on a beach, you probably don't even have a degree

Olive: I do not

Mortimer: Has she... you know

Olive: Travelled on my ferry? Oh dude I'm not telling you either way, spoilers!

Olive: What's this

Mortimer: Milton was being rude so I told him off

Olive: Was he being rude, or was he learning to talk

Mortimer: He should learn manners no matter how young

Olive: And what about here? Should he be learning manners here

Mortimer: I was mad at him for drawing attention so...

Olive: So...

Mortimer: I crushed his dreams alright!

Olive: Did he deserve that

Mortimer: He needed to learn that the world is a tough place. He cries for his mummy with every problem. He needs to harden up, and grow up.

Olive: Should he learn that lesson from his father

Mortimer: Who are you, the parenting police? Do you have children

Olive: I have Captain

Mortimer: Dogs don't count

Olive: Excuse you but fur babies absolutely count

Mortimer: This memory isn't relevant

Olive: Watcher says it is

Mortimer: Fine. I'm telling James if he doesn't cancel his engagement to Alexander I'll tell the school board he seduced his student

Olive: How'd that go

Mortimer: He told me Alexander would never forgive me, and he would love him still. What kind of idiot isn't afraid of criminal charges?

Mortimer: This exercise is ridiculous! Don't even start showing me how I supposedly failed Cassandra

Olive: Actually we don't have film to roll of that

Mortimer: You seem to have everything else

Olive: Turns out you hadn't spent enough time talking to her or her daughters, you know you're granddaughters, for you to have deep memories

Mortimer: That- that can't be right

Olive: It is

Mortimer: Dina. Why am I seeing her

Olive: Looks like she made an impression on you

Mortimer: She did. I only knew her a day but I could see myself happy with her

Olive: I'm sorry when any love is cut short

Mortimer: I knew things were over with Bella, they have been for longer than I'd wanted to admit. Dina was there, absolutely perfect for me

Olive: Despite appearances this isn't meant to be a guilt trip. I don't care how good or bad you were. I care about you being ready to move on

Mortimer: To the timeless save

Olive: Yes. All sims deserve to rest, no matter what they have or have not done

Mortimer: I did what I thought was right

Olive: Then, deep breath, and let it all go

Mortimer: Hold on, am I a teen again

Gunther: Greetings son

Mortimer: Father? Mother?

Cornelia: It's good to see you again

Mortimer: I missed you both, a lot

Gunther: We know son, we know

*Gunther from gallery ID: Eccapss

*Cornelia from gallery ID: 15_Vasi_06

Mortimer: I tried to grow the Goth fortune

Cornelia: Don't worry about that now

Mortimer: Shouldn't you be in white

Gunther: We're Goth's son, black is kind of our thing

Mortimer: *laughs*

Cornelia: Welcome to forever darling

And with that Mortimer is at peace in the timeless save

Dina: We had such a short time together

Milton: Father is dead

Nina: Yeah kiddo he is

Milton: I miss my mummy. I want my mummy!

Alexander: What is going on?

Dina: What are you doing here

Cassandra: James saw the meteorite and I saw Grimm hanging around across the street. What have you done to father? Is he dead?

Nina: We did nothing! No one can control meteorites

The Calientes continue to sob while the Goth children are in shock at the loss so soon after their mother has been declared missing.

Alexander: I know this isn't how we imagined being engaged would look like but could we...

James: Absolutely love, he's family

Dina: What are you talking about?

Alexander: We'll adopt Milton

Dina: You can't do that! It is a violation of the contract!

Alexander: Weird joke. We need to gather his things

Dina: You're not taking him anywhere

James: Who put you in charge

Nina: Our contract stated if anything were to happen to Bella and Mortimer we would be Milton's guardians and control the estate

Cassandra: You two? Look after my brother and our money? You're strangers!

Dina: You wouldn't want to upset your fathers last wishes now would you dear

Cassandra: I don't care what he wished, that isn't right

Dina: Calm down, I don't care for your tone

Cassandra: I will not calm down. You are not family. You have no right to him or our money

Dina: Tell that to the lawyers

Alexander: Can we visit

Nina: Maybe you could-

Dina: Not until you accept the situation

Milton: *confused and sad*

Dina: Come son, we're going home

With that Dina scoops Milton up and she and Nina walk away from the rest of the family who are reeling from the shock

Nina: Did we really have to announce it like that

Dina: They would have found out about the contract sooner or later

Nina: And if they discover it's fake

Dina: It is not fake. He may have signed it after a particularly long woohoo session but he signed it

Nina: And I'm meant to say I saw this

Dina: Yes

Dina: It needs to have had two witnesses so that's our story

Nina: But what now? What do we do with this estate

Dina: We're going to run this estate and gleam every penny we can before Milton comes of age, by then he has to love us enough to support us financially

Nina: Turn on the charm, got it

So the sisters become invested in Milton's happiness. If they look after him then, when the estate is no longer theirs, he may look after them. For now, Nina plays the doting aunt and Dina takes over the bedtime reading to her "son". Okay this rotation is finished for real now.

Goth Household: Chapter 7, Part 3

Next part of the Goth saga. In it Milton continues his bedtime avoidance and the maid continues to avoid vacuuming the house. Dust bunnies pile up.

It's Milton’s favourite big brother Alexander. He's popped over to check in on Milton and Bella. Before he can see his mum however Milton begs him to read a book. He agrees and picks a story about shapes. Guess Milton will learn them even if he rejects learning them with blocks. Boy loves his books.

Mortimer once again complains to Alexander about his choice in fiancé but Alexander won't listen. Bella misses this exchange as she is busy getting Milton in bed but when she gets to the dinner table, she can feel the tension in the air. Her and Alexander do manage to have a good chat despite this.

Before I know it Milton is up and trying to avoid bedtime by asking Bella for something. Nothing queues though so Bella has some playtime with him since he's not hungry. Afterwards she again reads him to sleep. Second time is the charm and he sleeps for the rest of the night.

Monday morning and Milton toddles off to his private daycare. Once Bella has left for work and the maid arrives Mortimer questions her about the paparazzi claiming someone told them he cheated on Bella. She assures him she doesn't want it getting out either as she also has a family to think of.

Milton gets home from daycare and autonomously bites Mortimer. Mortimer is mad understandably and tries to discipline him but Milton isn't listening. He doesn't care what his father thinks of his behaviour, his mummy loves him. Giving up Mortimer gives him dinner and goes outside to observe the sky.

Milton eats his peas, still feeling grumpy. At the end he wants to get out so throws his first tantrum. Mortimer is too far away to hear however. Giving up, Milton resigns himself to examining things around the room. The shelf display is nice but the empty suit of armour scares him a bit.

Having run out of choices Milton decides to nap since he's stuck. Eventually Mortimer returns from the telescope to clean up the bowl. He wakes Milton up and finally lets him out. He doesn't want Bella yelling about leaving Milton in the high chair again.

Milton plays by himself for a bit until Bella gets home. She is not pleased by what she finds. Despite having a maid the floor is slowly collecting dust piles and dust bunnies. After telling Mortimer the maid needs to improve she gives Milton a quick bath. He loves that rubber ducky.

Mortimer has managed to write a bestselling sci fi book so quickly sends it off for publishing when Alexander stops by. Mortimer is surprised, but Alexander assures him he's not there to visit him. Milton runs outside and Alexander scoops him up. Despite feeling angry he carries him to his toys.

Bella and Alexander chat while she peruses the Intelligence Database. Milton is trying his best with the shapes and Alexander helps him out. Alexander may visit more than Cassandra but Cassandra is always calling Bella inviting her over to visit. To be fair it's hard to travel with 2 infants.

Over breakfast Bella tries to talk to Mortimer. At first he seems reasonable. Slowly however the conversation turns sour. Mortimer is busy critiquing her woohoo technique when she decides the best thing to do is end the conversation. She goes and observes the sky until work.

On her way out Bella requests that Sarah do a thorough vacuum. Sarah bids the nanny goodbye at the end of shift and I check. We have even more dust bunnies than before. At least there never seem to be any in the study where Milton investigates books.

Mortimer returns from work a Global Superstar. Fame isn't everything though. He has developed a work rivalry with one Keao Kamealoha. Never heard of him but Mortimer can't be promoted until the situation is resolved one way or another. Something tells me Mortimer will take the low road but we'll see.

Mortimer goes straight to fix the fridge, carelessly making the floor dirtier. Do you mind sir? He continues a meal that the nanny started earlier when the nanny announces her departure. Excuse me I did not dismiss you come back! Mortimer won't look after Milton properly.

Milton is having a groove when Mortimer enters the study. Mortimer is tense with the dirty surroundings and tells Milton to be quiet. Ever the kind watcher, I get Milton to play with his loudest rattle. Take that! When Bella tucks Milton in bed he is still angry about being family with Mortimer.

Tick tock on the clock and Milton is awake and avoiding bedtime, despite being sad about being tired. Bella gives him some desert and reads him to sleep again. Mortimer uses the night time to go for a jog without paparazzi hanging around.

I watch the maid carefully the next day and she still doesn't vacuum. Mortimer decides enough is enough and calls the agency to cancel the service. He then spends about 3 sim hours vacuuming up all the dust piles and bunnies until everything is sparkling clean. We need a new strategy.

Mortimer: Just so you know, I fired Sarah

Bella: Does the agency have a replacement

Mortimer: No, I decided to fire the agency

Bella: What? Mortimer how will the house be kept tidy

Mortimer: Don't suppose you want to volunteer? I'm joking, lighten up

Bella: *sighs*

Mortimer: The clear solution is hire a live in maid, nanny combo

Bella: a permanent nanny?

Mortimer: Mainly maid

Bella: Not a butler?

Mortimer: Butlers are too glitchy

Bella: Do I get a say in any of this

Mortimer: I'll see some candidates tomorrow and you can meet the victor on your day off

Milton may have reached level 3 of the potty skill but that doesn't stop him having an accident with the potty this morning.

Bella: Good morning su-

Milton: *cries*

Bella: Oh sunshine, what's wrong?

Milton: I had potty accident Bella: It's not so bad, we'll fix it. Accidents are part of life

Milton: I like baths

Bella: So do I sunshine

Milton: You can have mine *splashes*

Bella: Well thank you but let's try keep the water in the tub

Milton: Mummy why is father boring

Bella: What do you mean

Milton: Always mean, always busy, always boring

Bella: He- I- I'm sorry it seems like that Milton

Milton: You fun mummy

Bella: Thank you. And of course you have Cassandra and Alexander

Milton: Sister and brother

Bella: That's right

Milton: And mummy

Bella: Yes. Now we better get breakfast before the day gets away from us

Milton: Gets away where

Bella: Any old where

Milton: *laughs*

Bella gets Milton his breakfast and decides to call Cassandra. She feels bad about not having had time to pop over between work and Milton. While Milton crunches his cereal she has a chatty family call, promising Cassandra she'll see her on Friday, her day off.

Bella is practicing chess on the computer when she hears sparking. Milton is busy playing with his squeaky toy and has reached level 5 of the imagination skill. After the potty skill this is his next toddler skill to be maxed out.

Goth Household: Chapter 7, Part 2

Bella and Mortimer attend the romance festival, spring turns to summer, and the Yorks and Pancakes are invited over for BBQ day. Bella and Mortimer are in a rocky place but at least toddler Milton is adorable.

Bella: I love the romance festival

Mortimer: Are you suggesting I don't

Bella: What? No I just meant-

Mortimer: You wanted to come so we're here. And there's the paparazzi

Bella: Ignore them

Mortimer: You don't understand, they're vultures

Bella: Can't we just have a nice date

Mortimer: Ask them

Bella: Nigiri please Kyle

Kyle: *whimpers*

Bella: Thank you

Luna that had better be a non alcoholic drink Mrs third trimester!

Guru: Do you seek an answer to your love problem? Let me solve it

Bella: Are you talking to me

Guru: I'm talking to everyone, it's the role of romance guru. Are you in love?

Bella: Shouldn't you know

Guru: Forgive me, I didn't know of your pain

Bella: My pain

Guru: Your husband is the one posing for pictures

Bella: That's him

Guru: The strain is clear

Bella: Really

Guru: I sense you are a mother, think of your children

Bella: Well that's less than helpful *stabs food*

Mortimer is busy greeting fans when he sees a familiar paparazzi signalling him. Mortimer pulls her aside.

Mortimer: What do you want

Alex: A reliable source told us you cheated on your wife, care to comment

Mortimer: What? No I do not care to comment on such a ridiculous accusation

Alex: You sure

Mortimer: If I see one whisper of this-

Alex: You'll what, have me fired, sounds like a comment

Mortimer: How's this for comment

Before Alex can react Mortimer furiously launches himself at her. Their scuffle draws the attention of the whole karaoke bar. Mortimer won but Alex won't forget this soon.

Bella: Home sweet home

Mortimer: Ducking paparazzi

Bella: Calm down. What was so bad you had to attack her

Mortimer: Doesn't matter, it was a lie

Bella: You attacked her over a lie she made up

Mortimer: It's fine, she can't prove anything

Bella: I'm confused

Mortimer: Can't be a new sensation for you

Bella: Don't talk to me like that

Mortimer: If the shoe fits

Bella: Excuse me

Mortimer: Did I use words that were too big honey

Bella: I wanted a nice festival date

Mortimer: So sorry someone attacking my reputation interfered with your plan

Bella: My plan

Mortimer: To seduce me

Bella: As if

While Mortimer storms upstairs Bella checks in with her colleague Bjorn

Bella: Is there an emergency

Bjorn: I was on festival surveillance tonight

Bella: Oh

Bjorn: You doing okay

Bella: Not really

Bjorn: Say the word, the agency can make him disappear

Bella: I'll be fine, thanks for stopping by

Bella: What are you doing up?

Milton: I dance

Bella: So I can see but it's past your bedtime

Milton: Snuggles!

Bella: Okay now bed

Milton: No bedtime, dessert

Bella sets him in his high chair and gets dessert

Milton: Mummy festival fun

Bella: Oh, yes, mummy had fun

Milton: Then why mummy look sad

Bella: Just grown up stuff

Milton: Daycare Silas say when mummy sad sing

Bella: Really

Milton launches into twinkle twinkle little star but it doesn't cheer Bella up today. After dessert is finished she gets him tucked in and reads to him from the dinosaur book until he falls asleep.

The first day of summer and Bella wakes up guilty. She had an intimate dream starring a dark haired sim who was not her husband. She trudges through her morning routine. Eventually the need to improve her logic skill draws her out to the telescope. You never know what she might see.

Bella: Hi sunshine

Milton: Mummy diaper stinky

Bella: Did you not make it to the potty

Milton: *frowns*

Bella: It's okay How bout a nice bubble bath

Milton: bubbles

Bella gets Milton in the bath and begins cleaning him. All the bubbles make Milton playful. He splashes and squeezes the duckie happily.

It's Summer BBQ day so Bella invites her closest friends, the Yorks and Pancakes, over to celebrate. When they arrive she begins taking selfies as she needs to level up in photography for promotion. Mortimer does manage to leave his writing to greet the guests. He knows them but they're not friends.

Kelly: So much I could swipe

Deanna: Get back here!

Bella: Hello you two. Now you must be Paris

Paris: That's me

Bella: Calista mentioned you'd be tagging along. It's nice to meet you

Deanna: Thanks for inviting us Mrs Goth

Bella: Bella is fine

Paris: You have a lovely house

Bella: It is rather nice

Milton: Doggie? Doggie!

Dale: *barks* who me?

Milton: Big doggie, fluffly doggie

Dale: *barks* you bet I am

Milton: Doggie nice? Doggie friendly?

Dale puts on his biggest smile to assure Milton he means no harm.

Milton: Bark bark, bark bark

Dale: *barks* Good try tiny human

Mortimer begins grilling.

Kelly: Pa, there's so much loose stuff here

Aaron: No

Kelly: But I haven't done anything

Calista: And you won't do anything because Bella is our friend

Kelly: You two are boring. I mean, just one spoon won't be missed

Aaron: Theft is theft young man

Kelly: Ugh fine

Milton: Nice doggie

Dale: *barks*

Milton: Doggie likes barking arf arf, arf arf

Dale: *barks* you're getting closer little one

Bob: Dale?

Dale: *barks* Dad! Best dad

Milton: Your doggie is fluffy

Bob: He is. He is the most adorable

Milton: *giggles*

Mortimer: Lunch is ready everyone! Come and get it

Everyone manages to grab a plate of something. There is definitely not enough seats but the guests figure it out.

Fergus: Why are you in uniform

Iggy: I have scouts right after this remember

Kelly: Goody two shoes

Iggy: Better than being a gremlin

Kelly: Pfft, whatever

Fergus: Stop making me look uncool Iggy

Mortimer tries to make small talk with Bob, not realising Bob is the worst person for small talk, it's a loner thing. Not sure why Calista has thrown on her military uniform but Aaron is definitely oggling his wife. I missed who made the kitchen mess that Iggy mops up, but I'm 98% sure it was Kelly.

After lunch Milton tries to make some jokes with Mortimer but he is having none of it. Having grown into a mean sim Mortimer goes so far as to crush Milton's dreams. A sad Milton doesn't understand what he did wrong and sits down dejectedly.

When everyone leaves Milton makes a beeline for the stereo. He loves sounds so happily bobs away. Bella however is still sad about her rift with Mortimer and goes to bed to cry it out. It helps a little so she goes to see if Milton needs anything. He needs snuggles.

Milton needs to improve his thinking skill so Bella offers to teach him on the blocks. Milton says NO. Bella tries to hug it out over him being defiant but he rejects this. Bella kneels down and starts to teach him about manners. He is unsure about this, after all Mortimer has no manners for him.

In the end he gets mad having to learn about manners. He needs to work on his thinking skill though so Bella reaches a compromise with more flash card time. In the end we are successful and his thinking skill reaches level 3.

Milton discovers someone broke his dollhouse today (again I'm 98% sure it was Kelly). Bella is in the middle of fixing it when Milton turns and speeds off.

Bella: Where are you off to

Milton: Door noise

Bella: Do we have another visitor

Milton: Bell door, bell door

Bella: Doorbell sunshine

Goth Household: Chapter 7, Part 1

The wheel of households has spun and the first stop is the Goth household. Here in part 1 Bella and Milton have a happy last Saturday of spring, including a park visit with Milton's siblings.

Across the road from the Chopra's is the Goth household. Bella and Mortimer are still sleeping in separate rooms, Bella has the master bedroom while Mortimer takes the spare bed upstairs. Toddler Milton is still in the nursery beside the master bedroom.

Milton hates bedtime so gets up about an hour after I’ve sent him to bed. I can work with this though. His bladder need is low so potty time it is. He is good friends with Bella (they actually have a maxed relationship bar) but only acquaintances with Mortimer who he has a difficult dynamic with.

Bella wakes up sad and uncomfortable. As a romantic it hurts her to be having marriage trouble. She dreamed of an idyllic happily ever after with her soulmate, but lately feels like she may not have found them yet. Was she just blinded by the Goth fortune like Mortimer implies?

However there is a romance festival today. Mortimer always promised they would attend every one together. Perhaps there will be a chance to salvage their relationship before things completely sour. Bella is so distracted she washes the dishes without turning on the tap, what skill.

A mind clearing jog will hopefully blow the blues away.

Bella: Good morning Agnes

Agnes: *scoffs* says who

The light rays are on full force today and the time in the light helps Bella to focus on what's important, her kids. She knows Milton is unlikely to be awake just yet so jogs a bit longer.

Mortimer wakes up sad and uncomfortable. He hasn't produced a bestseller lately despite being a four star celebrity. Plus he's pretty hungry. He heads downstairs to cook, paying no attention to the pictures of Cassandra, Rahul and Milton on the wall. Maybe cooking will inspire the next great book.

Milton: Mummy! Mummy!

Bella: Good morning sunshine

Milton: Far hot

Bella: Do you want to get changed

Milton: Birdie shirt, birdie shirt

Bella: Okay here we go, it is pretty hot this morning

Milton: Mummy have food

Bella: What would you like for breakfast

Milton: See real

Bella: Cereal coming up

Mortimer is working on his cooking skills for his Renaissance Sim aspiration. This morning he busies himself making up pancakes. He's made them so many times the process is automatic allowing him to think of story ideas. He's also getting pretty good at flipping. Fluffy pancakes, done.

Bella: Oh wow you had quite the appetite

Milton: What app tight

Bella: Appetite is, hmm, when you want something for your body. In this case, cereal

Milton: My app tight good?

Bella: Yes

Milton: Does mummy have good app tight?

Bella: *laughs* When I'm hungry I do

Milton: We be good to ether

Bella: Mummy doesn't have work today, what shall we do

Milton: Snuggle hug

Bella: Aww, thanks sunshine

Milton: I love mummy

Bella: I love you to you little charmer

Milton: Mummy read book

Bella: You want a story

Milton: Love books, stories fun

Bella: Do you want a particular book

Milton: Any book

Mortimer: You're going to read in here?

Milton: I love books

Mortimer: So long as you keep quiet, father is working

Milton: *blows raspberry*

Bella: Okay sunshine, you comfy

Milton: Book time, book time

Bella: Once upon a time there was a princess. A princess called plumbob

Milton: Plum bob bob

Bella: Princess plum bob bob lived in a big castle

Mortimer: Don't change the story, he needs to learn proper words

Milton: I know words fat her

Bella: Princess plum bob bob loved her castle. It had big pink curtains and long pink carpets

Milton: *smiles*

Bella: One day she saw it was getting dirty

Milton sits, enraptured with the story. He has heard it before but it's always fun when Bella reads to him. She listens to his input and together the story becomes an adventure. Mortimer blocks out most of their sounds and gets hard to work on a new screenplay. Can he make another bestseller?

It's a beautiful day so when Mortimer leaves for work Bella takes Milton to the park and invites Cassandra and Alexander to join her. The grown ups make use of the Don't Wake The Llama table while Milton has fun crawling through the play tunnel.

Alexander: Bet I don't even have to look at it

Alexander: Success is mine

Cassandra: I should have practiced as a kid

Bella: You were focussing on your music. Now, which one is safe?

Alexander: None for you

Cassandra: OMW shush, I need to concentrate

Alexander: Please, I could do this all day

He pulls another stick and in a flash the llama falls

Bella: Lets reset

Cassandra: I go first this time

Alexander: But youngest goes first

Bella: It's one game

Alexander: Fine

Cassandra: I'll just carefully get this one

Bella: That's it honey, focus

Cassandra: Yes

Alexander: Lucky pull

Bella: Credit where credit is due

Milton: sandra, sandra

Bella: Cassandra sunshine, Cass-andra

Milton: Cas andra

Cassandra: Close enough

Milton: My most love colour yellow. Yellow and o ran

Bella: I got this ta da

Cassandra: Orange?

Milton: Yes please

Cassandra: Oh you got me. Great joke

Milton: *giggles*

Suddenly the llama topples following Bella's turn

Milton: Play boat please mummy

Bella: I better go

Alexander: Call of the wild

Milton: I not wild, I charmer

Cassandra: He's got some sass in him

Alexander: Okay sis, you and me, rematch time

Cassandra: You're on

Bella: Where oh where is that boat?

Milton: Here mummy, we play here

Bella: Yes captain

Milton: Glub glub

Bella: Have we gone underwater captain

Milton: Yes

Bella: Oh the seaweed is so tall

Milton: Many bubbles

Bella: So many bubbles captain

Milton: Glub glub

Bella: Avast me hearties, this boat has become a submarine

Milton: sub mean

Bella: Glub glub

Milton: *giggles* mummy fun

Bella: Lets practice our flash cards. What's this one

Milton: Umm, broctree

Bella: Since I'm not sure if it's a tree or broccoli, I'll accept that

Milton: I got right?

Bella: How about this one

Milton: Ra pun zell

Bella: She has one, yes

Milton: Flying pan

Bella: Frying pan, but pan is right sunshine

Bella: Hey no peeking

Milton: But peeking help

Bella: Peeking is cheating, we don't cheat

Milton: Mmmilk

Bella: It holds milk yes. But what is the name of the thing that has milk inside it

Milton: No peek?

Bella: Try your best sunshine

Milton: *frets*

Bella: Best guess

Milton: Bot, bottle

Bella: YES

Bella: Done with the cards sunshine

Milton: Yahoo

Bella: We better get home

Milton: No, mummy play

Bella: Play boat again?

Milton: No, play fly

Bella: Oh, do you want to- fly?

Milton: *giggles* yes mummy

Bella: Better hold on, up up up we go

Milton: I fly, I fly

Bella: Woosh

Milton: Plane go vroom

Mortimer arrives home ecstatic. He may not have written a best seller today but he has been promoted to Bestselling Author, More money will be flowing in. He tries to do some writing before the festival but ends up breaking the computer. Maybe if you used your own desk as instructed?

Before heading out Bella makes sure Milton is ready for bed to make things easier on the babysitter. He has a sandwich for dinner. Afterwards Bella help him put on his pyjamas and gets him settled in bed with a bedtime story. It's the same book from earlier today but Milton still drifts off to sleep
