Holley, I'm afraid to ask what that thought was  Jill, Thank you. I felt it was about time I rounded off all the loose threads and brought them together in a form of recap. I'm so thrilled everyone thought it worked. True, I'm with you and Alexis on that one. It should have been him to tell her, but he kept chickening out, and waiting for the right moment, now someone else has beat him to it, and he's in trouble because of that. LOL @ "it's all about the Twin Flame, so SUCK it, Roe! Lol!", that's so true. SUCK it, Roe! Exactly, Raven and Dru will play a huge role in her transition. And Dru is her other soul mate, remember how I said she has three. Uriah, Jared, and Dru. Dru and Jared are in her life for specific purposes, Jared to help her deal with her self and have someone she can relate to, and Dru to help her with her transition into the magical world, and of course Uriah, to spend eternity with, and save the world together  The chapter on Uriah and Riley is now up, so I won't say much on that. Thank you, thank you, always, for all your support! And an update Ch. 43 |

Meow Uriah!
My nephew said he is still working on that "make real button" and my pink rocket ship but damn if we don't need it right now!!!
Seriously, he does need to take my advice and have a tell all dinner with Alexis and ALSO explain why he keeps brushing off her sexual advances!
I think it's kind of cute that Uriah still get's jealous over that Jared and Alexis.
Poor Ivan! God I want to hug him! It's crazy how badly I feel for him and how much I can understand what he is going through! He is so captivated by the beautiful memories that he had with her that he can't let go without feeling like he is losing his own life!
Wonderful job Val! |

I'm glad Uriah is finally going to get it all out. If it takes seeing Jared waiting in the wings, so be it! When he's getting it all out there, I'm with Qui - he needs to explain the pushing away her advances, too!
So sad about Reilly. I hope Uriah didn't injure himself trying that second time.
Poor Ivan, my heart just breaks for him. I loved how Alexis was reminded of the level of love she shares with Uriah when she saw Ivan with Reilly. How awesome it would be if there was another way to fix her, but I think Uriah's right. He needs to say goodbye. *sniff
There was so much emotion flying around this chapter - you really wrangled it and kept it focused. Terrific chapter!

Jill, yeah, he must have seen something he didn't like in Jared's eyes, but whatever it is he saw helped because it's pushing him in the right direction.
No, he didn't injure himself the second time around. And the first time was a little warning he shouldn't mess with stuff he has no business messing with, but because Alexis asked, he just can't say no to her, and his indecisiveness where she's concerned will lead to a lot of problems for a lot of people.
Ivan will find some peace. Eventually.
Thank you. Qui, tell nephew I said, "Hurry nephew, hurry right now, so I can have a RL Uriah." Tell him a crazy lady from South Africa can't wait any longer, please. We need that button ASAP. LOL @pink rocket ship. They do need a sit down, and that's the chapter I've been struggling with. I know it's supposed to happen, but I just don't see how, and I can't even picture it, and I don't even have the words. I've been putting off, and putting off, and that's why Dru ended up being the one to tell her.  Ivan...you may just get to hug him...  Thanks |

I'm going to tell him to put a rush on it!
Need help? I could always throw some ideas your way or even work around the ones you might have. I promise it will be innocent! lol
Val, don't you dare tease me like that! My heart stopped then thumped one good time as I tried to catch my breath! Hug him...*hopeless romantic sigh* |

Poor Ivan  I really hope something can be done eventually. You just feel the grief pouring from him. I am glad Uriah has decided to tell Alexis everything. Hopefully he gets a chance to soon before something else happens. You did such a GREAT job on those magic pictures. i am assuming you edited them some way, but it looked like Magic was flying through the air for sure! |

Holley, You and him both, he's not giving up hope, not right now anyway. For his sake, let's hope something can be done.
He may have come to that decision too late, Alexis already knows everything, so it won't be such an easy mess to clean up now.
Thanks about the compliment on the shots, and none of them are edited. In fact none of my shots are edited, unless blood has to be photoshopped and Karima usually does that for me. Everything about the magical shots is in game. I did use one or two magical mods, I think one was the "no magical wand" mod, so when Uriah cast the spell he used his hands instead of the wand.
And that spell he cast while interacting with Riley was the time freezing spell. And when Alexis was leaning over him, she cast some happy spell on him, hence the blue sparkles, and I used that to make it seem they were communicating telepathically.
The poseboxes came in handy too, and the good thing about those poses is that Alexis and Uriah could still cast spells while posing.
Thanks for reading. |

I have so much to learn about the magic in this game. So all those sparkles were "in game"? |

Don't worry, I'm only learning it now too. And it's so addictive. I was like "WHOA" when Uriah cast the time freezing spell and my computer screen sort of shook from that. It's pretty cool. And yep, it's all in game, all the sparkles. sims.wikia.com/wiki/Spells_(The_Sims_2:_Apartment_Life)I use the above page for the different spells, etc. But you have to try each one to see what magical effects it gives. And there's a mod I recently discovered I sure as hell can't live without. It allows all spells to be accessible to all witches, whether good, neutral, or evil, they can cast spells from the different alignments. |

Karima, -I figured everyone will love that last shot, after Uriah's epic fail. -As much as I'd like to give everyone a happily ever after, sometimes it doesn't always work out that way. -LOL. I told you, you just need to reach out to him, and seize the day. -Out of the loop  -I'm glad you still love it. I had that problem yesterday afternoon. And I could only get on late at night |
