#William Silversweater

[sweet-vanilla-sims]

1500-1599 Recap Part 66:

Janet got married to Camilo right after Thomas died. Bartholomew became a toddler. 

Then Ruth was married to Drew and as a proper sim she didn’t raise much complaint despite her worries. 

Piers became a toddler and Agnes showed her age. 

William got married to Karina’s cousin Patricia since at this point most sims are either related by blood or marriage. This is also around the time when I took some random sims from the Gallery and dropped them in game for side household spouses and world variety since there are A LOT OF AKIYAMAS AND HOWELLS AND VATORES AND VOLKOVS AND WILDERS a few families that have dominated the save not counting the Carlisles themselves of course. I don’t really remember where I got the other sims from since I wasn’t planning on having them marry into the family but other unrelated families for a little more variety I didn’t keep track of them but there are some in the family tree that married side households that will likely never be seen again. Though it is annoying that most of Cecily’s children come from a sim who I can’t remember who made him so I just didn’t mention it since I wasn’t expecting the like 4 sims I added to get involved with the family so quickly. 

Then Wilmot and Parnell went into business together.

Meet Mikayla O'Malley. My 1st gen sim for the Occult Legacy Challenge. This challenge was created by @sammleys This will be a fun one!

Mikayla grew up loving everything supernatural, learning about them from stories and myths. She wanted to see if all the stories were true and found herself right in the middle. Making friends so she can learn from the source. She's become close friends with Caleb and Lilith Vatore, Jacob Volkov, Simeon Silversweater, Tomax Collette and Lily Zhu. She never talked to Vlad or Greg from stories she's heard about their personalities. But while visiting Moonwood Mill talking to Jacob, she met a man named William. They hit it off right away! Becoming close friends because they share the same love for the supernatural. She started getting flirty with him after a while which he reciprocated. She thought he was human like herself so felt no wrong in that. Visiting Moonwood Mill to learn different things just like she does. Well, that's what she thought anyway. He does happen to run away every night when the moon comes out just like Jacob and Lily first did...

1500-1599 Recap Part 60: 

Adam and Karina’s youngest, Audrey was born and I was beginning to think that maybe the Ember family name was going to end when their daughters married since Adam only rolled to have four children and Audrey made four. Then I remembered Stephen’s sister and her two sons and figured that it would persist for at least the next generation maybe. 

Ambrose and Ann showed their age and their twins became teenagers. 

Isabel’s only child, Stephen, became a child. 

Elizabeth had a son who died as an infant. Then Margaret had her son, John, and Blanche had her daughter, Agnes. 

Audrey became a toddler.

1500-1599 Recap Part 54:

Adam and Karina married.

Rose’s triplets aged up as did Ambrose’s twins. William definitely seemed to be the best blend of his parents genetics at this point and Margery seemed to be an Ann clone though it was early to tell, Spoiler she was. 

Isabel and Tatsuya married. 

Cecily became a child and was recognized as the future head of her household.

Adam’s first child Joan was born.

Year 1586 Part 2:

TW/CW: Death, Child Death

Arthur Kibo turned one shortly after the loss of his brother though he had little knowledge of that loss. 

Things began to look up as Elric turned one as well and remained a healthy boy who took great joy in running around with his cousin. 

William and Patricia’s oldest child, Amy, celebrated her sixth birthday before news of Margery’s mother-in-law’s passing was shared throughout Glimmerbrook. Though the loss was made less sad when Audrey and Melrose celebrated their birthdays with their family and when news that Anthony had welcomed a daughter into the family came out.

Which only lasted so long because Maria’s son Bernard died shortly after followed by Janet’s father-in-law, Margery’s daughter Anne and Janet’s eldest son Thomas in order and rapid succession over the course of a few short days.

Year 1584 Part 2:

William and Patricia’s youngest celebrated her first birthday while Patricia’s suspicion grew each day that their two kids was soon to be three. 

Thomasin found herself also expecting though she was scared of losing another child of hers she was determined to appreciate her child more especially since they’d have a big cousin to take attention away as well so she would have to step up. 

Parnell was more than happy to share things she learned about the village with her home bound sister while Philippa and Thomasin spoke at length about their respective pregnancies and their fears for after they delivered. 

Eventually though Philippa went into labor.

Year 1574 Part 2:

Ambrose and Ann began to show signs of their age as their twins celebrated their thirteenth birthday. It was clear that they favored their mother in terms of looks. Though while his eldest showed little interest or promise in medicine, Ambrose was glad to see his other son was clever and had a joy for learning. 

Parnell was determined to focus as much on her studies as she could to avoid thinking about her ailing mother or the new baby that would be loud in the home soon. 

It didn’t take much waiting though since Margaret went into labor not far into the year. Given the lack of news from Tartosa, Margaret didn’t see an issue in naming her son John. It wasn’t until later that she discovered that Elizabeth had named her son the same. Still they lived miles apart and even if her nephew had survived, the children likely would have never met so there would be no confusion between them.

Year 1565 Part 1:

Samara was once again expecting from her line of work though now the house was in much better condition, she was able to relax a bit more knowing all of her children had a place to sleep on their own. No one had to share beds or sleep on the couch anymore. But even better, one of the few people in town who still acknowledged her existence was now spending more and more time with her since Rebecca no longer had to walk down the hill to even consider visiting her cousins and her friend. Ever since Samara had fallen pregnant, most folk avoided her for being unwed but Rebecca was glad to talk to someone and get advice on motherhood. With Samara’s sisters married and living out of town, she felt that she found a sisterhood with her daughter’s cousin. 

In Glimmerbrook, Ann was once again with child and while the other children were happy with each other they were not looking forward to another sibling. That said, when Sarah was born, Ann and Ambrose decided that they were done with children and decided to both consume a potion from Talia’s tome that would prevent conception until they took a second potion to reverse it, if they ever chose to have more than the five children they had. 

[sweet-vanilla-sims]

Surviving Family:

Talia’s eldest child, Thomas Carlisle married Isabel Goth and the couple had six children before Isabel’s death. Anthony, Andrew, Agnes, Adam, Allen, and Arthur. Unfortunately both Adam and Allen passed away as children. After Isabel’s death, Thomas remarried Margery Thorne and the couple had two sons, Adrian and Ambrose. Ambrose married Ann Silversweater and took her last name before they had five children. Thomas, Alexander, Margery, William, and Sarah. Alexander sadly died as an infant. 

Ambrose’s eldest, Thomas Silversweater died before his twenties and fathered three children. With Chanel Cahill he had twins, Thomas and Anne, though his son Thomas died in the plague and with Julianna Jang he had his daughter Lindsay. Thomas’s daughter Anne is pictured first followed by her husband Robert Pancakes who was the father of Hana’s son Javon. Then Lindsay is pictured. 

Ambrose’s daughter Margery married Laurent Ember and they had two children before they died, a daughter, Anne, who passed away in her toddler years and their son, Cuthbert, who is pictured below Lindsay Jang. 

Margery’s twin, William, is pictured with his wife, Patricia Charm, followed by their three children, Amy, Janet and Melrose in that order. Amy married Adonis Welsh who is a sim from the gallery that I didn’t keep track of who made them so I didn’t show them and they have a son named Darren.

1500-1599 Recap Part 51:

The younger children became toddlers, Catherine died then the plague hit. 

Not that many of the family was hit in this plague and this plague had a lot more deaths overall in the save. I was actually surprised by how many of the family members lived. But yeah plenty died including Solomon which cemented that the heir of the legacy was going to be an heiress. I mentioned in one of my Extras that Adrian’s daughters mostly took after him as children so it was hard to choose an heir out of his spellcaster daughters. 

[sweet-vanilla-sims]

1500-1599 Recap Part 49:

Adrian’s surviving son, Solomon, was born. He died in the Plague though. He didn’t actually survive his toddler roll though if I recall correctly so I just worked that in there. 

Birthdays for the kids. 

Cecily was born and in the background of the picture of her as a baby is her sister, Tomi’s other daughter, who happens to be the mother of Rachel Ashtor’s husband and Barnaby Jaleel’s wife. The family is so sprawling it’s hard to find spouses without some kind of relation. **cough cough** MCCC marrying off second and third cousins **cough cough**. 

Ambrose’s twins were born after his second born passed.

Year 1579 Part 1:

In Glimmerbrook, William and Margery turned 18 and with that William married Karina’s cousin Patricia as was arranged by their families. 

Wilmot then approached Parnell with an offer. Faiz was getting old as a merchant and Wilmot was planning on taking over the business from him ideally when the kids were a bit bigger but she would need help and she wanted it from Parnell. Parnell was honored for the offer and said that she would do what she could to make money but she still wasn’t sure that Tartosa was a place she could truly call home. When Wilmot said that’s why she wanted Parnell she was confused, Wilmot wanted to establish clear trading between countries through her business rather than mostly wandering about to see who wants to buy. Essentially she wanted help establishing herself in Tartosa since the kids were still little and she wanted Parnell to open her own place wherever she chose to settle so that they could both profit. Parnell decided that the offer was far too good to refuse.

Year 1578 Part 3:

TW/CW: Death Mention

The loss of Thomas hit the entire family hard. Ambrose’s youngest though felt disappointed that her grandfather wasn’t around to see her thirteenth birthday even if they hadn’t actually met in person.  Anthony felt similarly when he turned thirteen though unfortunately a few weeks after his birthday, his father died leaving his mother a widow. 

Larissa was hit with the realization that now that Thomas was gone she was the last one of her siblings left. It was normal to lose parents and it was unfortunate that eventually a sibling would be the last left behind but, it actually struck her that she was going to outlive all of her brothers children and grandchildren, she would one day be entirely alone grieving people that future family would have decades apart to even meet. Still, she wanted to help her brother’s family as much as she could while they all shared their grief but with her brother’s loss she felt the urge to travel again. 

Thomasin felt the opposite. The loss made her want to stay put instead of setting off on adventure. She still wanted to travel but she decided that she would wait for her sisters to grow up so they could go together. For the time being, tales from merchants or travelers passing through would tide her over. Adrian didn’t mind having his daughter choose to stay home longer, in fact, he loved that she wanted to. 

Parnell and Philippa spent more time together than before since Thomasin kept mostly to herself to cry as she grieved. The younger girls took comfort in each other. 

[sweet-vanilla-sims]

Year 1567 Part 1:

Things in Glimmerbrook went well as Ambrose and Ann’s twins turned six to their parent’s delight. 

While the search for new spellcasters proved fruitful when a young man named Tatsuya joined their community and the attachment was further strengthened by his marriage to Isabel. The couple shared little love but as time passed they had developed a friendship.

[sweet-vanilla-sims]

Year 1566 Part 1:

Sarah celebrated her first birthday and joined the ranks of Silversweater children running about Glimmerbrook to both the delight and exhaustion of her parents. Her older siblings had come around to their little sister which was a relief. Soon after Sarah’s birthday, Blanche celebrated her thirteenth birthday. 

In Henford, Rebecca’s children also had their birthday in the early part of the year. Avis often followed after her father while Wren was a fussy child. Anthony was a sweet baby who liked to try and comfort his sister when he could. 

[sweet-vanilla-sims]

Year 1564 Part 2:

Ambrose’s sons got along well even after Thomas was old enough to begin his lessons. William was a bit jealous though.

Things back in Henford were still tense. Gilbert was threw himself into keeping busy to distract from his grief though Rebecca was happy to meet young man who had moved to town shortly after the plague had left town. Her cousin might not have wanted to do much but she was eager for a change after so much grief. Carmelo was just  delighted to have such a beautiful woman showing blatant interest in him.
