Kev never left Zedadias’ home after Alice did. He’s still wandering the house having arguments with himself. Zedadias isn’t responding to him, perhaps hoping that if he ignores him, he’ll go away.
Ever since Alice’s early visit when she broke his shower, water has been constantly leaking from somewhere, despite the shower having been fixed long ago. Zedadias spends most of his days futilely trying to stem the tide with his mop.
When all the shouting tires him out, Kev curls up on the bed.
Zedadias’ life goes on around him.
Next: Independence
Alice and Kev 
Love the last Picture
♥♥♥
ditto!
Doubble ditto!
Zedadias is great. I think everyone’s life would be a little better if they made making silly faces in the mirror part of their daily routine.
LOL
My real life as a homeless person would fit the storyline great. I could drop some real life —- to the story stuff the rest of the wrold has no Idea what homeless go through.
I am @ a shelter NOW search in Houston Texas not suppose to be using the computer for this but it’z so interesting I will take a chance on getting kicked out BUT not beforte I get a shower, starting to smell like yesterday. PS if anyone has a old or outdated laptop or anything you can donate to a homeless father paralized to mhytche1997@yahoo.com
my video camera was stolen @ Salvation Army shelter but here is my video

How did you make Kev’s Clothes look dirty?????
I’d like to see him remove his sunglasses again while doing that
He did in https://aliceandkev.wordpress.com/2009/07/05/macaroni-cheese/
thats cause hes in his pajamas lol he doesnt wear sunglasses to bed
If you look closely at the last picture you can barely see his eyes.
Wow, you can!
I just love your story. Keep up the good work.
God, I’m at the end of my shift at work, drinking what bit of caffeine I have left to keep away for the drive home, and taht last pic of Zed’ made me snort it up my nose!!!
🙂
So Kev has stayed at Zedadias’s house two nights in a row now? We all wanted Alice to move in with him, not Kev!
How is it even possible that Zedadias doesn’t chase him away O_O Is it some of Kev’s traits?
I thin one of his traits lets him get away with doing innapropriate things…possibly his innapropriate trait?
Alice should so make a move on Zed… He’s living the childhood she never had! She could join in!
I agree, his childish personality could help her cope and get over her lousy childhood.
It’s the original odd couple!
I love this blog. I’ve added Alice and Kev to my main Sims game, where they add a good bit of color. I’d also like to bring in Zedadias; is he available for download?
he wasn’t until i remade him on the sims 3 exchange under playerchad757.
I’m pretty sure he’s a townie sim that comes with Riverview, the free town available on the Sims 3 site.
No, sometimes random people show up in you town that aren’t included in the town… I don’t know why. I had a guy named “Cycl0n3 Sw0rd” show up in my town who looked a little bit like Zed, but he got old and died.
random people can show up, which makes it difficult to say whether zed was created or not, i dont think he grew up since it wouldn’t fit the timeline of alice and kevs story. Cycl0n3 Sw0rd is part of the roomie household in sunset valley i know that for sure. I havn’t seen zed anywhere but when i go to create a sim there at the bottom of the young adult list is a sim who sort of looks like zed so those wanting to create him could try using him and seve yourself some trouble.
I know they can beat each other up, but are Sims capable of murder? I’m wondering when Kev is going to push someone over the edge, or maybe just lose it himself.
no. why would they be??????????? thats crazy. there not going to make a sims game with murder. sorry, try a different video game. – and sorry if i came off as a bitch i was just answering a question people have been asking for like ever-
Sometimes, I wish they could. It would add a very interesting dynamic to the game. But Brytni’s right: it wouldn’t be the sims if they could. I also wish they would have a religious expansion pack: having the pope and the dali llama (sp?) and Jesus just wandering around as npc’s from time to time would be hilarious. And if especially devout sims would get into arguments over belief from time to time, then that would be funny too! Would also bring to light how silly it is to argue in real life, dare I say.
they can’t murder, but they can wish to see someone die.. i was playing with alice and kev and he wished to see her firey ghost (she was a teenager at the time i believe, it was sad) =/
Wouldn’t that be interesting? But since children can play this game, I doubt it highly. Im still laughing over how when you join the criminal career you can wind up in jail. Thats funny!
I dunno, but have you ever noticed the “Gold Digger” lifetime achievement? It says something about her partner dying “prematurely”. Almost seems like it’s offering her a chance to kill him off so she can enjoy the money.
And sims can also hope “to see someone’s ghost” – with other words, they hope that this person dies! But once in sims 2 my sim was hoping to see her own ghost!!! O_O (A glitch, I guess XD)
I hope Alice goes out with Zeadias’ they would be a cute couple.
Euck… stinky old man on the covers.. can’t get much more creepy than that…. and that will never ever come out…
Kev”s so infuriating!!!!!! poor zeadia
i know where the water is comeing from the toilet
Have we seen Kev in that jacket before? Aside from the fact that it’s filthy, he almost looks respectable in it.
Almost.
Hahaha his formal wear!
I still say that Zed seems a terrible match; he might indulge the lost childhood; but a childish person isn’t the best idea for someone who needs so much. I mean what does Zed do? I’m just saying she shouldn’t fall for the first nice guy she ever meets, seems a little desperate for love, kinda like selling herself.
THANK YOU! I think Alice should find a guy with the “brave” and “good” and “friendly and “good sense of humor” traits
i know right! I have Alice and kev, once alice was a ypoung adult i did everything i could to find her the perfect guy, he has all those traits, plus he’s lucky.
And needs to be someone with the repair skill I’d say 🙂
we all want one of those! Sadly i can only find ones with ‘couch potato’, ‘hopeless’ and ‘lager’ traits
Absolutely agreed! Thank you!
I’m kind of Pro AlicexZed, but that doesn’t fuel what I’m about to say. This is The Sims, have you ever noticed that couples never get into arguments over anything? At least, not autonomously. Couples are always perfect matches; even when they have opposite traits, they can still lead a long and happy life together. Very unrealistic, of course, but that’s just it. Alice and Zedadias aren’t real, they’re sims. They would work out just fine as a couple, and they would work out just fine as friends. In many a sim story it is much more convenient to go with the first guy you meet, and it always works out just fine unless you purposely try to make it not work out. There is no possible way for a sim to be desperate for love, or to be “selling herself.”
However, if this were a real-life situation, I agree with you that it’s not very smart to get involved with the first guy she’s met and actually made a good relationship with. (However, the desperate for love thing confuses me, ’cause, come one, if you really feel that way about the first guy you met, then you’re not desperate, you genuinely feel that way. xD)
I get your point but at the same time I felt like this story showed how much a real shine the game has. Besides it’s not just about being happy; you could live a shallow self indulged life and be happy. However a harder working sim would make a better future if say she ever wanted children.
There is a way for them to be desperate, they always act desperate when left alone. I had made a family in which one son had some family orientation; he moved out so the computer took control. He married some random girl with unsimilar traits in order to fulfill his wishes and start making a family.
As for first guy you met; it’s just such a childish act. Only people I can think of that talk about early loves being perfect are teen girls who spout their crappy boyfriend is perfect up to breaking up with them. There is some chance it’s her best match, my point wasn’t to never be with him; but instead to wait and see to make sure she doesn’t throw away possible life for some kinda nice guy.
yes exactly; her position needs support. I’d rather see someone with “good”, “brave”, “workaholic” and then whatever two traits make him seem human. It’s not some ten romance, it’s a reflection of what real support she and her father needs.
I like the idea that Zedadias spends most of his time trying to stem a leak in the bathroom.
I like it too! XD LOL!
Kudos for the storytelling – you just never know what’s going to happen day to day. Lets us “live out” their lives. Cheers.
I might have missed it, but is Zed a stock character in the game or someone Robin created?
Z is a NPC
Zed and Alice would sure fit well together, btw I love the story ;D
haha Z is so cute XD Aww that second picture is so sad.. 😦 he doesn’t blame Alice at all though.. so kinda..
btw I think you spelled his name wrong in the first sentence.. ^^;
Loving it! I really need to download Riverview, that is a really neat looking community lot.
The story inspired me to make a couple of homeless sims of my own, modeled after these two. It was all going so well, sorta, until the dad died. The daughter was taken away by a social worker and there goes that. 😛
ROFL! I’m lauging my pants off at that.
Now to ask you a question, what happens if the dad dies and the girl is taken away? Does it say “Game Over” 😉
yeah… I tried it too…
but none of my sims died. I just got bored… I’m kinda sorta impatient, huh?
I had that “Puddle” trouble too with my Sims breaking the shower at a townie house. Just change the active household to Zed’s house, delete all the plumbing in the bathroom, mop up the puddles, and then replace the plumbing. Then you can switch back to Alice and Kev family.
I hope that solves it. Also I love this blog, I check every day!
I quite like this bug, though. Alice has done permanent damage to this poor guy’s house.
Haha… Good way to use a bug to your advantage, I wouldn’t have thought to use the bug like that! But that’s why I don’t have a Sims 3 blog… Not so good with the storytelling.
I totally agree! Sometimes bugs just make the game better XD
speaking of bugs but a little off-topic… none of my sims have been able to have daughters yet. It’s been like 16 sons in a row. For probably ten different families. Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem. And P.S. I love this story! Did you have a good weekend off?
If you feed a pregnant sim apples (or food that has been cooked with apples in it) the likely hood of having a boy increases. Eat 4 apple filled meal and I think the likelyhood reaches 100%. If you want girls, feed your preggo sim watermellons or foods with watermellon in it.
Hint: Fruit in the fridge gets used in alphabetical order. But if you keep watermelon in your sims’ inventory when they are cooking they’ll use that first.
I agree. In my own story (http://celara.wordpress.com), I’ve actually had a couple bugs that have made it into the story. It can sometimes make for some very interesting, unexplainable events.
I tried a fairly extreme experiment on mine… one homeless guy with a bench a front door a phone and a pond… I forced him to adopt 7 babies, then put the 30 guests mod on then the know everyone cheat… then organised a birthday party… then let them be free will.
so far no major occurences… babies everywhere on the grass crying though… everyone hates my homeless chap and his noisy crying baby parties but the babies haven’t been taken away.
pizza boxes and birthday cakes and plates everywhere now
nice. i couldnt have thought of that!!! 😀
LOL! Oh come on now, you’ve GOT to post some pictures or a film from that! Awesome!
Interesting update! I wonder how long Kev is going to stay there. And if he goes on another “journey” will Alice come back? By the way, where is Anita?
LMAO!!!! XDXD
I love Zedidas, he’s such a goofball. Also I’m not such a fan of his bathroom fixtures. Those are some gross greens. But I do like the decor in the rest of his house!
Zed i a charachter the game created the sims eather frrom baby (two charachters) or just moving in.
I’ve got a wacky idea: Kev and Zedadias. Kevadias.
You have Kev bringing his heartbreaking skills of romance – dude’s already broken up a marriage! – and a lot of brooding, and you have Zedadias who can take him out of his shell and keep him from being too evil. It’s perfect!
(And when Kev inevitably breaks Zed’s heart he can totally hook up with Alice.)
ROFL! That’s brilliant! Kevadias…
It’s possible (though unlikely), I mean… Kev already sleeps in Zed’s bed. >=)
Now that I think about it… it explains a lot of Zed’s behavior… Tag? I’m just kidding, but that is a great idea! XD
The crazy bum and the childish romantic. Doesn’t exactly sound like the perfect couple, but it would make one hysterical story!
Kev still hasn’t left.I wonder that too can SIMS murder each other
Have any of you guys ever heard of supple?
Yes, I beat it on easy, I LOVE supple!
That game frustrates me, but I love it.
I beat the first level on easy 😛
PS: random?
Oh Zedadias, he’s just so chill with everything and so nice to poor Alice and being so tolerate of stinky Kev.
Way to go.
Can’t get through my workday without an update from you. Thanks for the stress relief!! 🙂
Bit disappointed with the last two updates if i’m honest… 😦
I just wanted to say that I love this blog. I went out and bought this game the day it was released, but unfortunately my computer is to old and doesn’t have near enough memory. I enjoy reading this blog everyday.
Oh! I just had to respond to your post specifically. I would like to point out (because it’s possible for everyone to enjoy this game on any type of computer) that my computer is 8 years old and only supports up to 1 gig of memory, however with a few minor do-it-yourself upgrades that must have cost me about $150 – if not less – in total I’m able to play TS3! Yay!
What kind of do-it-yourself upgrades? I have a computer that isn’t supporting Sims 3 well (it did fine on Sims 2), but I really, really want it to work better for Sims 3!!!! (Thanks!)
A little more than 6 sentences per update would be nice.
Great update as usual, can’t wait to see how the Kev squatting in Zed’s house ends up. The Alice I downloaded into my game died of old age today, she’s survived by her 5 Children and 9 Grandchildren.
LOL
Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE this blog. <33 But it's been a bit boring these late 2 or 3 posts, something crazy needs to happen! 😀 😀
Sims have tongues now… 🙂
i created alice and kev on the sims 2 and i made a bathroom stall and evrybody rings the door bell on there!!!!!!!!!!! and most peeps come just to go to the bathroom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL!!! XD I’m dying of laughter here! First someone tells about the bum with 7 babies he made and now you’re telling this…. XD
I did that too! Its hilarious. And Alice for some reason does her homework in there.
its because the sims are programed to do homework inside and not outside
I think Zed is a little nuts too, to be honest, but really sweet.
Zed & Alice 4eva! lol
ROFLOL. His most fav thing to do. Gah~
I’ve had quite many childish sims and actually it gets really annoying when they keep on doing that mirror thing all the time XP
Had Zed even gotten the “Rude Guest” moodlet? There’s no way that he would let Kev stay in his house for even two days, unless he’s an unusually kind-hearted Sim.
I’m serious….
If I was Zed, Kev would have been on the tail end of a beating, or at least in the back of a Sims Police Car…
To be honest, i’m completely ready for him to DIE. And for Alice to move in with Zed as a room mate, renting the spare room, and eventually moving into HIS room as she gets pregnant and they are FORCED to get married. And live happily ever after…
…UNTIL her crappy upbringing catches up with her, she gets really confused, and ends up leaving Zed with the kid in her arms, running through the rain out the SimHenge so she can yell at rocks. Before finally having the child taken away by SSS. (Sims Social Services) And she is forced to live on the street again, as a “lady of the evening” to make money and support, not only her MADNESS!! But her addiction to cough syrup and heroin.
THEN, Alice will FINALLY meet a RICH man, like in the movie “PRETTY WOMAN”. But instead of getting married, he instead, promises her 50,000 sim dollars if she’ll do a crazy depraved sex act with a rabid angry bear. Having not been raised by the smartest man herself, she accepts. The bear takes her face off, and, panicking (as Sims so often begin to do), the RICH man disposed of her body by dumping her in the river. Coincidentally…the very SAME river where Alive and Zedadias dumped the body of her late father, Kev. The space they were unable to tolerate sharing in life, they would share together forever in death….
Zedadias eventually, but only after years and years of legal battles, was able to get the baby back. After that, the baby (Named Cooper) and Zedadias lived together in relative suburban normalcy until Cooper turned 12 and had to have his appendix removed. Blood DNA tests ran at that time by the child’s angry Grandmother, whom had never forgave Alice for running off with Cooper and acting so poorly that he’d been raised by the state for several years, showed the Cooper and Zedadias had no genetic SIMilarities (no pun intended :-P). But Zedadias being the man he is, disregarded those results and continued to raise the child until he turned 18 and moved out on his own.
And moral of the story IS….ummm…that woman can be really messed up cometimes…I think, I forget where I was comin from with this, just kinda got wrapped up in finishing the story….
🙂
Seriously? You, my friend, spent way too much time on a comment. Albeit, and inventive comment…but you should make your own blog if you have that much to say.
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL! Freaking hilarious!
Dude, what the eff is wrong with you? 0_o That whole thing just…wow…but I guess I’m just as weird for actually reading it.
that story was hilarious. write that down and send it to a publishing company!
Nice story. xD Download teenager Alice, grow her up and make a blog out of this, but be sure to mail me when you do. 😀
i don’t really have a comment, but i just wanted to say hi. HI!
Lord da josh… You sick twisted fiend! Alice is not crazy she is a good person in a very bad situation(you’ll find those words in a harry potter movie. i forgot which) If i wasn’t saying this over the internet i would smack you! Can’t you be like everyone else reading this blog and hope alice and zed will fall in love get married BEFORE she gets pregant and have at least two kids. And what the hell is her trait!
You know what would be funny? If Kev made a move on Zebadias! He still does have that lifetime wish to be the boyfriend of 10 sims. Now’s your chance, Kev!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
Maybe Alice and Kev will fight for Zeb’s love! 🙂
I’m I the only one whos’s noticed that Zed’s house is extremely similar to the Mendez house in Riverview?? She must have evicted them or something.
Wasn’t really expecting updates to happen so quickly but I’m glad it did. Zed being tolerant towards Kev.. a sign that he wants to score points with the father of his future girlfriend or has he become so familiar with Kev already that he doesn’t mind his antics. Either way he’s still easy to like because of (or despite of) his childishness.
BTW got curious enough about the game that I did some research.. Is Alices’ last trait hopeless romantic? I remember reading somewhere that she read a romance novel.. and remember reading from several sites that reading a romance novel is an auto action available with the romantic trait.
actually, they are prob friends and Kev asked Zed if he could stay the night, and he prob did everyday. Great Post!
so she is a hopeless romantic? that would be horrible.. I mean in real life she would be easily taken advantage of and left in a worse situation than she is now.. Zed deserves to die if he does something like that to Alice.
Zed has a hilarious expression on the last picture ^^
What the heck can’t you force him to leave Roburksy? Come on this is just plain sad. And funny!
@saw: uggh, i cant reply, edit or addon to my comment.. so i am adding it here. weird thought. Zedd probably needs to get the ‘birds and the bees’ talk first before their relationship could go into the romantic direction. :p
Zed must really like Alice if he’s willing to put up with crazy ol’ Kev. Dealing with horrible potential in-laws? That’s a sign of love right there!
I had the same problem with the un-moppable puddle. Very very annoying. Wonderful story I am really enjoying it.
WONDERFUL, I’m happy your commenting more on the story like you use to 🙂
RoBurky,
Did you make Zedadias, or did he come with the game?
Please answer!!!!!
And, if you did make him, PLEEEEEASE make him available for download!!
😀 Amy
:))
:p
We want you to upload zed! purleez? and just make zed kiss her, they are meant to be, its sooooooo obvious
Kev’s lookin’ sharp in that hobo gettup suit of his.
I’ve had a similar shower problem. I just had to suck it up and replace all the items in the bathroom. Pretty sure it’s just some sort of glitch, but it didn’t go away after a few days and a restart of the game, unfortunately.
rofl ha ha ha whats up with the shower water lol
man, Zed really is a good guy, huh??? Putting up with His Awfulness. I would most likely just kill Kev (or at least kick him out of my house) and have done with.
Maybe Alice’s last trait is Brave. That would sorta explain the whole “running for independance” thing. or not.
maybe its bookworm, the last thing she did before growing up was read books and we were told she really enjoys reading.
i tried to make a homeless family in the sims 2 ( i have yet to get the sime 3 i’m still saveing) a father and daughter. since sims 2 is direfeent thay had a frige hidden by trees. the dad died than something really odd happend the daughter a child at the time never got taken by the socal worker O.o i didn’t get it i even played her awhile . the socal worker never came. i finlly moved her in with a new family. stangely that was not the first time that has happend in my game. its only when a parent dies
like i said odd
HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY IT ZED IS A COMPUTER MADE CHARACTER NOT ROB’S OR THE INTIAL GAMES ( HE COULD STILL UPLOAD HIM THOUGH)
DID YOU KNOW CAPS TAKES 10% longer to read
If he could still upload Zed, then what exactly is your point Ethan?
I am new to this whole thing and i LOVE it. LordDaJosh that was disgusting and hilarious but that is Not going to happen, you are wierd
You have a flair for the comedic timing, that’s for sure!
life just rolls on…. 😛
Great blog! I found it last night and lost track of time reading it >_> ended up goingn to bed at nearly 5 am… whoops.
Thanks for doing this!
epic face zed simply funny with a hint of wtf?
To stop the water from pooling in the bathroom, you could just mop all the water up then buy a drain and put it in the bathroom. To do that of course, you would need tocontrol a sim living in the house…..so maybe you can influence Alice’s life a little and move her in with Zed?
No?
Just a thought….
The last picture is win ! XDDD
