Don't forget to vote in my heir poll! Nymphadora is currently in the lead, followed by Bellatrix, with Severus bringing up the rear.
This coffee machine is making me nervous, so time to replace it with a snow cone machine!
At the fall festival Tom, Salazar, Bellatrix, and Liz had a great time bobbing for apples.
'Dora would rather compete in the pie eating contest... all by herself. At least she won!
Severus had to go do some work thing not long after they got to the festival, but he was able to stay long enough to take the family photo.
Nymphadora graduated with highest honor as the class valedictorian. She was voted Most Likely to be Mediocre. I love her kitty hat!
Salazar passed out (-5 points) almost immediately after exiting the graduation ceremony, embarrassing his family.
As if that wasn't bad enough, 'Dora was then hit by lightning!
Me thinks the whole ordeal will show up on YouTube later thanks to this fellow graduation attendee.
Another maxed skill for Tom (+10 points), and he can now make Bottled Witches' Brew.
He also got this skill challenge (+5) but I forgot to get a screenshot of the notification.
Tom had been growing a variety of alchemy plants in preparation for learning the witch elixir recipe, and then he didn't need any of them! I probably should have googled the recipe lol. So now he has to go learn fishing and catch a bunch of toads.
Severus started a new painting, which coincidentally looks almost exactly like his first painting only smaller.
Tom and Bellatrix spent some quality father/daughter time with the foosball table. Looks like Bellatrix is winning.
Liz and Nymphadora hung out together after work. 'Dora is still singed from being struck by lightning. Her hair actually kinda looks like I pictured Tonk's hair when reading the books!
Sooo close to completing his second painting when he gets a stupid phone call. >.<
Muhahaha! The cowplant has taken another victim! Tom will wait until closer to Severus's birthday to drink the milk so he gets the most benefit before possibly handing off the torch.
I got super excited about this until I realized it was the hidden chess skill that doesn't count rather than logic.
Tom then completed another skill challenge (+5 points) to make up for it.
Everyone wears their swimwear when reading inside their house in the winter, right? I had to check and make sure she wasn't insane.
Everyone loves the snow cone maker and I'm okay with that. They spend less time making full meals every time they get hungry, but the downside is snow cones aren't as filling.
I'm not sure if I've mentioned this yet, but I have the story progression mod set so whenever anyone in town gets married it prompts me to set their new married name. I've been assigning everyone names from the HP universe, the goal being everyone in town having a HP last name eventually. I have not, however, made anyone else for the town other than Tom. So it surprised me when he walked into the alchemy shop and this wish popped up!
This is what Albus Dumbledore looks like, in case you were wondering.
