Chapter 7 - The Many Stages of Simdom

The shock of what Cassandra had done slowly wore off, and life in the Swift household returned to normal.

Megan continues her weird tantric althletic thing

 Using her powers to mystify bartenders

 and generally continuing to annoy me. Enough about Megan.

The next couple of days were very busy in the Swift household. First Isabella came down with flu-like symptoms. Shoulda had the salad Isabella... I told you that steak was bad.

Which obviously turned out not to be food poisioning at all....

She's also taken up hacking into the Simerican Government (one nation under Watcher)'s database, and now has genuine reasons to believe the government was watching her, rather than her just general neuroticism.

 What didn't help was the fact that her Uncle Rhys had asked her to fix his shower, and his insistence on meeting clandestinely when it was done.

Are you Grey Squirrel? Uh.. what?

 Gerado started doing surprisingly well at work, being promoted to Intern and then Resident. It mean long hours, but it was worth it, and he knew that he was one step closer to finding a cure for Cassandra. Now he was a proper doctor, it meant he often had to go out on emergencies, or hold vaccination clinics. Although some of the people he saw were obviously beyond medical help....

"Are you Three Fishes?" "Shut up Rhys"

 Then, suddenly everything happened at once! In the space of two hours the following all happened:

Cassanda's birthday

She still looks Crazy

Megan's Birthday. (and didn't she pick an awkward place to do it?)

and then finally, the arrival into the world of Joshua

Amelie

 and Sophia

My apologies, it's mostly filler. So yeah, triplets. You have probably never heard anyone swear so much in their life than when that happened. I've only ever had triplets once before, and from what I remember, it was an absolute nightmare. So this should be fun :) I've gone from 3 kids for this generation, to 5!

The birthdays and the birth all happened literally at the same time, my camera was jumping around all over the place, it was pretty hectic!

Anyhoo, enjoy :)
