The Great Move

As we last left off Ethan jr aged up let's start off with something a little different.. Shall we?

Cecelia, was called to Alister's Elixirs and Sundries. They had a very small Zombie problem. Of course being a mystic healer she quickly took up the offer to come help.

 Soon the zombie was cured.

While she was there she ran into Delilah's father Elliot.  Cecelia figured to herself she might as well tell him about the big move. He's apart of the family too. He may not be married into the family but as Delilah's father Cecelia felt like he was still part of her family as well as dear friend to her.

"Elliot there is so soon to be a big change, with the many glitches and constant crashing the Burnbright family are soon to leave Moonlight falls. Your welcome to come join us Elliot as I am afraid we are not returning."

"I don't know what to say- Where are you going?"

"The Burnbright family is moving to a town called Butterfly Acres. You, Julie, your son Neal, and your daughter Bridget are all welcome to come join us. I know Delilah would want her father and siblings around and she's pretty close to your wife Julie as well. Not to mention little Ethan would want his grandfather in his life."

"I'll talk to Julie and we'll give this some serious thought."


"Good I am glad you'll consider it..... it won't be quite the same without you."


Meanwhile Delilah has had her own problems to deal with.

With all the late night feedings for Ethan jr and potty training lessons. It seems like there is never enough potent invigoration elixir around. She swears trying to feed a ghost baby is like trying to fill the bottomless pit... neither will ever be full.

Little Jr was slowly but surely learning...

Though his musical abilities we're getting quite up there and fast. Which is good news.

He seems to be taking an interest in music this young and instead of remembering his past life as Keaton.. that is a major relief on Delilah's mind that he won't be looking for revenge later on.

The move to Butterfly Acres will be good a thing. Since Keaton die in Moonlight falls there's already to much bad memories here for the little boy once he grows older. Moving away from that maybe just what this family needed.


 She has hopes that her father's side of the family will join them.  After several days of consideration Delilah did receive a call from her father saying that he and his wife, as well Neal and Bridget will be joining them in Butterfly Acres.

 Within the week Delilah prepared to move everything magically that is..... The house, her family, the ghosts, everything.  Of course meanwhile Cecelia was doing her own spell at the time.

"Great spirits far and near. Here this spell I am about to say... Move this house, move me, my son, the spirits of Agatha, Ameen, and Ethan to the town of Butterfly Acres is where we want to be."

The power was a bit much on Delilah as she did faint...

But she woke up for quite the surprise.

"My little great granddaughter is all grown up."

"Grandma Aggie? What brings you here?"

"Well you summoned Ameen and I, to Butterfly Acres. But before you send us back to the grave yard.... I see you've been in need of ambrosia. I did indeed learn the recipe before my death but-"

"What? You did? Why didn't you save yourself-"

"Delilah please let your old grandmother finish. I didn't do it because it wouldn't be right to cheat Death. I was meant to die one day, not be immortal.  Besides I am happy in the afterlife I am reunited with your great grandfather and I can watch over the family for the many generations to come this way without getting hurt."

"I see, well alive or not it's good to see you again."

"It's good to see you again to.  I already paid my visit to Beatrice to my surprise I am going to be a grandma again! Cecelia was happy to see me.. so you and little Ethan were next."

"You move around a lot from the cemetery..."

"Yes."

"I can't exactly make ambrosia for Ethan jr and his daddy in this state. I know one who can. In-fact I called her over."

"You remember my sister Ava... who is currently playing with your son. Well I must go I am being called back to the afterlife. I will see you again Delilah goodbye."

"Goodbye Grandma Aggie and thanks!"

"Anytime and thank Ava too..."

"I don't know how can I ever thank you enough-"

Ava just smiled and look back at Delilah..

"Well your son doesn't need to be a ghost his whole life. But you'd have to wait until his childhood birthday to give him this and I am going to make an extra plate for his daddy to. He needs his father he is growing boy. But you'll have to ask Kai to get him back from the great beyond so he can eat it... I can only make the Ambrosia now I can't get Ethan sr back from the afterlife-"

"Yes I understand."

"Good."

So Ava went straight to work making not just one plate but two...

"Thank you so much.. I don't know how to thank you.  Maybe I can sign you up for that bachelorette show-"

"NO. After being married 16 times. I rather not try anything like that. I've had enough men in my life thank you for asking though."

"Ah, well.. if you need anything let me know."

"Just send me an invite to your wedding and Ethan's birthday party and all will be even. I want to see him get resurrected myself."

"I will invite you to his birthday party thank you very much Ava. I kinda of doubt I am rushing straight into marriage-"

Ava just gave a smile.. "We'll see."

When Ava left and Delilah put Ethan jr in his new play pen given to her from Piazzagirl. She wanted to see Jr get good use out of it and of course enjoy Butterfly Acres...

To be continued...

Up next is Ethan jr's birthday.

So I used the custom world Butterfly Acres.

Also Delilah's house is from here.  http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=6436092 I forgot to put a link to it when I first introduced into the story so here's the proper credit for it right now. 

If you decide to use Butterfly Acres in your story game a fair warning you will need to drop in houses. It has all the buildings I needed except I had to put in a consignment shop.

But I had to drop homes for my families and for the townies I dropped in myself.

The pictures I used for Cecelia telling Elliot the Burnbrights are moving are from the old Zombie story that I had in mind that went wrong.

But those old screenshots were still put to good use. Yes Elliot did marry Holly's daughter Julie in the end.. they have a daughter Bridget whom I will post of in the next update.

So I took with me Delilah, Ethan jr, Ethan sr.  Cecelia and Pal, Desmond, David, and Dreama.  Elliot, Julie, Bridget, and Neal.  Arnie, Ariel, and Ava.  I took five of Ava's children with me.  Also, Agatha's ghost and Ameen's.  Russel and Beatrice, Calvin, Cara, and Carl.

But I put in several different Townies I made myself so there's plenty people for them to marry into lol.

Russel and Beatrice are currently excepting another baby as are Ariel and Arnie... I got a baby boom happening here.

Bonus shot..

This Fat Fairy man broke into my house to dance...

Have no idea why this happened so randomly to...

But he left after Delilah asked him to... so no harm done.
