The Peppers in a royal palais? More likely than you think

Just in case anyone cares I still can't play @paralives.com because the lag is too severe (yes I have submitted feedback)

Stop! Putting! Generative! AI! IN YOUR CC PREVIEWS! It just makes you look trashy and untrustworthy 😭

My jorts shrunk in the wash but I’m persevering #WWBD

With her youngest child starting to grow up, Bev is having her usual identity crisis, even though she quite likes this kid. What ever happened to VILLAINOUS Bev? The Pepperlets have had too much screentime lately, maybe now is the perfect time for... COMPLETING!! THAT!! ASPIRATION!! XOXO Bevee Peps

He was a high-achieving infant, but can Guyee be as successful as a toddler? Don has started teaching him to talk, but Guyee is a little hesitant. He's seen how much trouble talking can get a person into, especially in this family, and he's tempted to stay quiet for as long as he can. Smart kid! 🧠

After the removal of the unrelated infants, there are now 0 babies on the lot, because Guyee has aged up! And oops - Bev and Don forgot to throw him a party. Hey, there was a lot going on, OK? Bev has a new fringe! Can this Guyee please be reasonable? Reasonable, maybe, but independent? Definitely!

After their mildly-romantic-but-mostly-traumatic Dojo date, Davee returns home to find not one, but TWO infants on the street outside Chateau Peppers. His PTSDee kicks in and he has a panic attack - are these new secret siblings?! (Thankfully not, and production swiftly escorted them off the lot.)

... and maybe he can! Kirk tells Davee about his big, fat trust fund he'll get when he becomes a Young Adult. If he can get it early, he'd be happy to pay for Davee's fees, and then they could go to university together! The pair celebrate with some football, and Davee's fitness skill increases!

Davee and Kirk retire to their camping chairs, and Davee commiserates. How could HE be rejected? After all his suffering and hard work? He's embarrassed the only scholarship he got is for living in Oasis Springs - any fool could qualify! Kirk wishes he could help his poor, downtrodden boyfriend...

This Daphnee quandree makes Kirk sweaty and anxious, so he changes the subject, and asks Davee if he'd like to open his scholarship letters now? Davee does just that... and his day is ruined again. Rejected for the two scholarships that would have helped him the most. That ol' Peppers bad luck! 😞

Davee meets Kirk at The Dojo to open his letters. But first, he tells him about Daphnee's plans. Davee advises Kirk he told his sister he was seeing someone, so maybe he should go with that story and keep it vague? Or they could tell her the truth? Kirk is stunned into silence. Daphnee likes him?!

Daphnee found the perfect cure for her scratchy skin - a moment of mouth-to-mouth with her current primary beau, Keaton. Nothing wrong with making the most of him before she gets to talk to Kirk! 😘 Destinee, meanwhile, satisfied her own needs with a disdainful glare at the two lovebirds.

Davee awakes the next day feeling down, and with pimples popping up - but non-active high school wasn't all bad, and certainly boosted his mood. He got an excellent grade in a test, and came home to responses from the scholarships he applied to. As a bonus, his sisters both had awful days. Score!

While Chateau Peppers slumbered and forgot their worries, lil Guyee achieved another milestone - he slept through the night! And who wouldn't want morning to come more quickly when it started in the arms of Don Lothario? 💪 Speaking of (beef)cakes, Guyee's birthday is soon! Toddler time incoming!

Later, while Bev cursed the Simu customer service AI demon chatbot as she tried to get a refund, Don got his own pop-up notification - something was new with his lady, and he liked it! Don told Bev he was generating some lusty feelings, and she suggested they take a cue from her new 'do - and BANG!

#SaveeDavee

Davee tries to stay calm and tells Daphnee that he's pretty sure Kirk is seeing someone. Who? Why should HE know? They're only GOOD FRIENDS! Daphnee laughs it off - so Kirk has a girlfriend! Big deal! She has, like, three boyfriends and it's totally cool! Davee feels dizzy and needs to lie down 😵‍💫

Fire out and crisis averted, Daphnee hugs her brother and thanks him for saving her from imminent grilled-cheese-related death. Davee feels a moment of reprieve from his frustration, but then Daphnee drops a bomb - she's so relieved to be alive that she's going to tell Kirk how she feels about him!

While Bev's legs are akimbo, Daphnee's got the stove a-flameo! This chateau was never meant for one as flammable as you! 🔥 Don panics so loudly that Davee is soon on the scene avec extinguisher. He resents having to save the day from this bunch of clowns he calls a family. Now he just needs saving!

🍊 BEVERLEE IS BACK! 🍊 And this mama's got some brand new bangs! CLIP-IN, that is. Bev ordered them off Simu, and while the texture nor the tone of orange are quite right, she's giving them a go. Some yoga helps her come to terms with the imperfections. If only her bangs were as perfect as she is!

Backrooms stressed me out so much I cried. 10/10 highly recommend.

My boy 🥹

I hate AI so much it’s actually starting to keep me awake

I played some Bev yesterday and had the best time! I forgot how easy it is to let them tell me what happens in the story. Can’t wait to edit and post and then play more 🥹

P.S. Here's some Don Lothario butt as an apology for not posting a Bev update in over a year 🍑 🙃 I really am determined to get back to her story, even if I don't play or post as often as I did - I had these latest photos waiting around since March '25! The Peppers will be back in 2026! 🫑

As his mother pulls up and honks her horn, Antonio plants a smacker on Destinee's lips. Wowza! She hasn't had a kiss this good since the one her boyfriend, Keaton, gave her that afternoon. And they're not even almost related! 💋 If only Beverlee knew how to, she would be SO PROUD 🥲 XOXO Bevee Peps

Daphnee follows Antonio out to say goodbye, in her own special seductive manner. He's SO much cuter than the other near-family member she dated before! 😍 Antonio only finds Daphnee basic looking, but as a teenage boy and the spawn of Don Lothario, he's always up for a flirt - no matter what! 😏

Antonio is shocked by Davee's response - why is his butter so bitter? He's supposed to be the nice one! 😮 But Davee isn't the only one spiralling - Daphnee might lose the potential love of her life! Or, more likely, the potential love of her week. (Unrelated, but she does currently have a bf.)
