The Name Game: Judy-Bo-Budy | Chapter 6: Teenage Kicks

Hello and welcome to the last chapter of the first generation of my name game challenge!

That's right, the heir has been chosen and will take over in the next chapter!

Who is the heir I hear you say? Well, you'll find out in this chapter but for now, shall we have a recap?

Previously: Judy and Bella finally tied the knot after having four kids together, Jack, Uziel, Darcy, and Yaz! This chapter will bring in all the antics of teenagehood as well as out founder breaching elderhood *sad sigh*

Jack seems to be struggling with his homework.

Jack: “This just isn’t creative enough for me!”

Unfortunately, maths is a necessity. Get Uziel to help you.



I totally forgot to screencap the pop-up so sue me (I'm a good simmer, I swear).

Here’re Uziel’s traits! His aspiration is Nerd Brain.

Ugh, he’s kinda so pretty? He’s a front runner for me, not going to lie.

I can’t deal with how different these two look.

Uziel gets the day off from school because he grew up (which I totally think he shouldn’t? But whatever game) so he’s studying the rocket science skill. I think it’ll be handy in the future?

Jack: “Chilli again!?”

Uziel: “Calm down, Jack, it’s still really tasty.”

Hands up if chilli con carne is one of your favourite foods! *raises hand*

Not too sure if that was the “best” option but it’s the thing my mum always used to say to me when I was a teenager.

Another thing my mum used to say to me!

Bella! Are you sick again!? Really?! We’re losing money because I need to keep buying you medicine.

Bella: “You still love me though, right, darling?”

*grumle* You’re too pretty to be mad at for long, Mrs Anderson.

Bella: “That’s a wonderful piece, Jack darling. Not as good as mine, mind, but the sentiment still stands.”

Jack: “Gee, thanks Mom.”

She’s kidding.

She’s kidding, right?

Someone tell me she’s kidding!

Judy: “Hey, we both have the day off for once, Bel. Wanna go have some private time?”

Uziel: “They’re doing this to spite me!”

Huh. Uziel, honey, you’re gonna have a rough time. Your parents are very… adoring.

Uziel: “Don’t stress, Uze. You’ll find a beautiful man and you’ll be very happy.”

Uziel: “I want to be in a relationship.”

Don’t we all?

Bella: “For you, my darling.”

Judy: “Smells like the first day I saw you!”

Oh, it’s Love Day again!

This time it’s going to go successfully. No one’s pregnant, giving birth, or has work until 3pm.

Also those messages are incredibly sweet, my teeth ache.

Uziel starts his first day at high school!

YOWCH. Sorry, Jack.

Bella: “Love is a wonderful thing, darling!”

Uziel: “Thanks for rubbing it in my face, Mama.”

Uziel: “And he basically just destroys toys for fun.”

Jack: “I can’t believe they made bop-its out of Baby Yodas!?”

Uziel: “I want one.”

Jack: “Ugh. Me too.”

Me three.

Well, Yaz, I’m afraid your mother is a chef so…

Noooo not the Google Nest Amazon Echo Lin-z Smart Speaker!

Judy: “Dinner time, kids!”

Anyone going to tell Darcy off for making a mess? C’mon?

Jack: “I would but I have a tweet to make.”

Another phase! Thank god Jack and Uziel were relatively easy to care for.

Uziel: “Jack, I don’t wear make-up. This is guyliner!”

I gave Judy a punching bag to get fit with and she’s getting really good at it!

Jack: “You do homework like a geek.”

Uziel: “I am a geek, you moron. Go paint a picture of some daisies or something.”

Jack: “Maybe I will, asshole.”

Jack: “Eat these daisies, Uze!”

Bella: “Who gave birth you because it certainly wasn’t me. You are no child of mine.”

Bella: “Well, whilst Mom’s fixing the TV why don’t we play a fun little game, darlings? I’m thinking of a celebrity.”

Jack: “Is it Mortimer Goth.”

Bella: “… The game is finished. Jack, you’ve ruined it.”

Ooh another teenager on the way!

Bella: “You know I don’t think about my ex-husband, right? You’re the only one I think about, darling.”

Speak of the devil. You hang around too long.

Mortimer: “One day she’ll change her mind.”

She changed her name, dude. It’s over.

Nice view though.

Darcy: “No. Strangers. Ever!”

That’s your half-sister, Darcy, hardly a stranger.

Yaz: “Eugh, I hate chicken stir fry!”

Yaz: “But Mom did spend a lot of time making this…”



Yaz: “Maybe it’ll taste better now I’ve mixed it with rice?”

Rinse and repeat folks.

Yaz is incredibly entertaining to watch through her picky eater phase.

Darcy: “Jack! Jack! There’s a monster under my bed!”

I kinda love him, I’m not going to lie to you all.


Uziel: “Hm? Did you say something, Gray?”

Just the fact that you might be my favourite so you’re probably going to be heir.

Uziel: “TIGHT! Let me tweet about this!”



Darcy is a snob who wants to be a bodybuilder.

Make it make sense Microsoft Excel?

I’ve randomised all of the kids Aspirations through the randomisation function on Excel. Some of them made sense – Uziel being a Nerd Brain – and some didn’t, like Darcy’s.

Oh well.

Darcy: “Oh great, we still have to wait for Yaz to age up before things can move on.”

Darcy: “Don’t show this to your readers, Gray.”

Too late. You’re being far too entertaining, Darcy.

Here’s Darcy! He’s the only kid with Bella’s eye shape. I still prefer Uziel, sorry.

Darcy: “Ugh.”

Darcy: “You’re looking kinda splotchy there, Uze.”

Uziel: “Oh dang it!”

Oh for God’s sake, Uziel.

I cure the little shizz and he goes off for a jog. If you get sick again I’m gonna lose it.

I want to say it’s surprising that Yaz and Darcy are super close, but Darcy’s close to everyone but Jack.

God isn’t this just a festive dinner. Uziel the baby emo is pouting and Darcy is scowling at Cassandra.


You son of a bitch.

Bella: “Goodness! Why can’t my darling children get along?”

Because 4/5ths are teenagers, that’s why!

Oop, Darcy’s first day at high school!

Uziel: “I’m sad.”

When are you not, Uze?

Jack: “I’m angry!”

Again. Sentiment stands, when are you not?

You two are the most temperamental sims I’ve ever had.

At least you’re normal, Darcy.

Darcy: “I hate the décor in this place. It’s so plain and boring.”

I changed my mind. All three of you are awful.

That’s right, Uziel, cry it out.

Judy was fortunate enough to get a day off from work on one of the hottest days of the week so I sent her out to do a little rollerblading.

Judy: “WHOA!”

Judy: “Nailed it!”

Bella: “Guess who got a promotion?”

You look swank, lady! I love the jacket on you!

I need you vampires to leave me alone. PLEASE. Stop hissing at my door. No one will let you in!

Vampire: *hiss*

Oh *hiss* back at you.

Oh yay! Finally we’ll get to see who will become heir. Uziel is still on the forefront until we see what Yaz looks like.


There are the four sims we rely on for the next generation. May God have mercy on us all.

Uziel: “No one wants to eat with me…”

Whatever’s on TV is far more appealing, hun.

Uziel: “I won’t take that kind of abuse from someone who wears plugs!”

I mean, you’re likely to become heir. Is that adult enough for you, Uziel?

Judy: “After this cake, all of my kids will be grown up.”

It’s a sad thought, isn’t it?

Uziel: “No, Mom, I’m not trying to take Yaz’s thunder away by setting the table out! How rude!”

God damn it! I forgot to take a screenshot of the pop-up again!

Here are her traits. She’s a cat person and her aspiration is The Curator!

Here she is all made up!

She’s cute…

But Uziel takes it for me, I think. Bella’s genes are just stronger aesthetically.

Yaz: “Huh? I got a tweet notif.”

Yaz: “Creator Gray names Uziel Anderson as next heir for her name game challenge?”

Yaz: “Huh!? Uziel!?”

Yaz: “Ugh, Gray, he’s so whiny and emo!”

And you’re being very whiny and emo right now, Yaz. Weren’t you in the middle of something?

Yaz: *mumbling under breath*

Obviously the pressure of taking over the Anderson name is fairing a bit too much for Uziel. That or he had a really bad day at school. I think it’s the latter, personally.

Uziel: “EVERYONE HATES ME!”

Yeah, it’s probably the latter.

Darcy: “I can’t believe you chose him as your heir.”

Uziel: *whimper* “Everyone hates me.”

CHRIST.

Yaz: “I’m so hot I nearly burnt to death!”

That’s not something to be proud of, you nitwit!

Yaz: “And sometimes the monster of the lake comes up and drags down its victims. Usually they’re male with red hair and a nasty, snobby attitude.”

Darcy: “Eegads! That sounds like me!”

Yaz: “Yeeeees.”

Darcy: “Oh, ha ha, I get it. You’re making fun of me.”

Yaz: “No, I’m being serious! Stop grinning, you’re ruining the whole story!”

Darcy: “Maybe the monster has a sister that gobbles up black haired younger sisters of these snobby red heads?”

Yaz: “Hm. Maybe it is just an urban legend after all.”

Darcy: “That’s what I thought.”

Uziel: “Mom, I don’t want a cuddle!”

I think Uziel pulls the best facial expressions. He gets it from Bel.

Geez Louise, the teenagers are some of the most rambunctious teens I’ve ever had the misfortune of playing.

Darcy: “You’ll never get anywhere by pulling tantrums like that, Uze.”

Uziel: “*bleep* YOU!”

So, as my family was sleeping I noticed this sim continuously transforming and detransforming into a bat.

I finally got this photo before they gave up and flew home…

Yaz is off to school!

Jack: “If Gray was doing university this round, I would probably do something art related.”

Judy: “If you want to make me proud, you’d go into culinary.”

Uziel: “Everyone knows that mathematics is the best degree to get into for the most progressive career.”

Judy: “Yeah!”

Jack: “I hate maths.”

Oh my! The first young adult in the family! How exciting. I’ve never gotten this far in a Sims 4 family before.

Darcy: “No, dude, Kylo Ren is the better villain in the Star Wars franchise.”

Uziel: “You say that to my face when Darth Vader exists?!”

Darcy: “Darth Vader was manipulated, Kylo just genuinely wanted to kill people!”

Uziel: “I can’t be dealin’ with idiots like you.”

Darcy: “Asshole.”

Lmfao. Judy is so unimpressed with her sons, it’s hilarious.

Uh… Jack… Uziel was sat there first…?

Darcy: “And a quick snap for the insta feed!”

BOOYAH!

And just in time! I'm sad Judy's reaching elderhood though...


Is this a testament to Bella’s parenting?

Insensitive but responsible. Sounds like white male celebrity twitter to me.

Jack: “Am I moving out?”

Sadly, yes. But, don’t worry. You won’t be alone!

Darcy: “Big bro, before you go…”

Kinda cute that Darcy came to Jack for advice.

Uziel: “Ugh, the pressure of being heir is wearing me down!”

Uziel: “Maybe twitter might help me.”

Uziel: “Oh no, my timeline’s full of memes of my own mother!”

And now we watch Uziel’s struggle with playing chess.



He’s so precious. I love his face.

Oh yes, Bella and Judy are irrevocably in love still.




That’s a come hither face if I’ve ever seen one.


Oh, hey Jack!

Jack: “I need a break from Cassandra and Alexander.”

Oh yeah, I moved Jack in with Cassandra and Alexander Goth – I did say I wanted the family to be closer!

Jack: “What!? Is no one home!?”

Um… No?

Judy: “I know I’m getting old – my back is starting to kill me.”

Uziel is constantly being helpful by repairing all of the outdated appliances in the house. I heart him.



*weep*

Judy: “Oh, boy, my back!”

Darcy: “This is totally killing my vibe.”

Exciting! Our heir is about to become a young adult and the next generation will be underway!

I changed Judy’s outfit because I felt she needed something more “grandma like”. Shout out to my own late grandmother for inspiring this outfit!

Bella’s birthday is following suit too!

Bella and Uziel share a birthday this time so that’ll be fun.


These are Judy and Bella’s kids.

Make of that what you will.

Forget the movie IT, this is the loser’s club.

Also, please ignore how skinny Yaz is. I’ve spent so much time and cake trying to rectify the insta-lean potion but it hasn’t worked… I miss her curves so much.

Y’all need therapy.

Judy: “Oh, I think my daughter’s broken.”

*click*

Judy: “Why are you still walking like that?”


This family is a freakin’ mess!

Judy: “You know, your life isn’t that hard, Yaz.”

The last time all three of these kids will be doing homework together!

I’m getting rather sentimental…

Ka-pow! Judy’s knocking it out of the park!

Bella, I swear to God.


Bella: “Use the force, Luke!”

Don’t turn this into a joke. We lose more money because we keep having to buy medicine for you.

And this is where we end this generation!

Next time: Uziel grows up and finds his life partner!!

  1. So if you want to stop buying so much medicine, since you're family does seem to get sick a LOT, try just having them drink orange juice. It's like a natural remedy and they'll get a little happy moodlet. All these teens are just too much fun. I don't think I've ever had that much moodiness in one household! lol Congrats on finishing Judy's aspiration!!! Also congrats on getting this far, since you said it's the farthest you've ever gotten!

    1. Huh. Really? Orange juice the wonder cure! Thank you for that! That's helpful. I don't know how my sims get so sick so often... it was a nightmare for a while but now I know this, I'll use it!
      God, the teens. THE TEENS! I love teenagers so much in the sims games, they're always the best age group. They're independent enough that they can gain adult skills but are still the moodiest little things. The best!
      Thank you! I've really been enjoying the Sims 4 so far! I hope to finish the challenge before I burn out on it and go back to TS2 lol!
      Thank you for reading and commenting! <3
