its been a while since ive updated cass’ journal so here are some entries from his college years! After ending things with fiancé Gwen, Cas has been flaunting his noncommittal trait. 

He finally found a sim he really liked, and they had their first kiss at his sister’s age up party! but....she just didnt want anything serious and turned him down when he asked her to be his girlfriend. 

dont worry he’s not too too torn up. He celebrated by taking his baby twins out to shop for toys! 

he’s on his third semester of uni and he’s not doing too bad! He’s already got his eye on someone new, so hopefully we’ll meet our goal of getting married right after he graduates. 

A little late but here are my swiftie december planner covers! I use them for my notebooks in the Goodnotes App. 

Cass comes home after getting engaged to his pregnant girlfriend on the second day at uni. His Dad isn’t upset, or angry. He says ‘Cass, you’ve always been the most responsible person in this family. I don’t think I’ve ever told you about your grandparents.’ This is the story of Harlyn Dredger, Legacy Founder. 

Harlyn started out looking for love in all the wrong places. She never wanted to settle down, and had a goal to have 100 boyfriends or girlfriends. She had no money, and no house. She slept where ever she could, and when someone offered to pay her for her time...she didn’t say no. 

Harlyn met Johnny Zest at a rave in the Bluffs. She thought he would be just another number to check off, and didnt ever intended to see him again. But around the fire that night, Johnny told her about his mom- Nancy Landgraab, and how his family disowned him for following his dreams. They felt an instant, and unshakeable connection. 

Johnny and Harlyn became these weird little allies to each other. They made a plan to take over Nancy’s crime syndicate. But when Harlyn went to go infiltrate the growing drug ring, she got dragged down by addiction. It became a dark hole in their lives. Johnny kept bringing home trophy girlfriends to rival Harlyn and her string of clients. Johnny actually MARRIED Eva Capricciosa while Harlyn was still living in the house, and the newlyweds quickly had first born daughter Tiffany. (Don’t worry, it gets worse.) Johnny had an affair with potential nanny - Sofia Bjergsen - and had second baby, Krystal, around the same time. 

Eva thought that it was true love, and when she learned how mistaken she was, she overdosed while Tiffany was still a baby. Haryln stepped in, and raised both girls like they were her own. They softened her heart, making her wonder if this life was really all there was. When she fell pregnant from the job, she chose to welcome son Zion with open arms.

Love is a funny thing sometimes. It doesn’t always work the way we think it does. As they faced adulthood, with three babies relying on them...The pair finally stopped running from the truth. They were soulmates. 

That's not to say things got easier. Harlyn visited rehab and got clean. But Sofia couldn't make it stick. Harlyn couldnt have the drugs around the toddlers and kicked her out. Maybe that’s why she passed away before ever telling Johnny she had given birth to a second daughter by him. {no really, I only found Willow while searching for Sofia's grave.}

Johnny and Harlyn took it upon themselves to clean up their lives. Between his life as a Comedian, and her nightly pursuits, they had amassed a pretty good fortune. They demolished their drug cave and built a mansion, with room for the “twin” girls, Zion, and toddler Willow and their new baby Gideon. 

Johnny and Harlyn dedicated their lives to their children. They were understanding and kind, even when the kids made mistakes. When Krystal became a teen mom, they didn’t reject her. Instead they helped raise Amethyst so that Krystal could continue school and build her career. 

I couldn’t stay away from my girl Gwen-I mean, uh, my beloved Dredger family! Well actually, I snagged dsicover university during the black friday origin sale and Cass was about to age up...(ross geller voice) its all working out! 

We left the Dredger’s still reeling from the loss of Atticus. However, a new day is coming and things are starting to look up. Cass prepares to graduate high school and move out! Our boy is standing tall and completed his youth as a Master LLamacorn Scout & with the Good Manners trait! 

^ Cass’ Senior Picture! 

On the big age up night, he invited over his crush, Gwen, to celebrate since they have the same birthday! Also sharing the day was lil sis Millie. Always the good brother, Cass invited over some girls around her age so she can have a leg up in school. {check out millie’s elementary school portrait as well as her teen look under the cut}

Cass was more convinced than ever that Gwen might be the one. He walked her out the door and made his move! Unfortunately....Vladdy Daddy also was making his move. 

Yup. Thanks for that, my man. Over the next couple days, Cass got his acceptance letter to Britechester to study the Distinguished Degree of Communications. Cass has his sights set on civil service, so he packs up and heads to his new home of Drake Hall.

{theres a bit of a screenshot gap here because...i forgot to take screenshots. I have regrets}

Now, Cass moves in, and he’s finally away from the eyes of his parents. He thinks ‘hey, i’m an adult now! I should woohoo with my girlfriend! in the closet! on my first day in the dorm!’ Great idea, right??? Right. What could go wrong??

The next day is love day, and Cass is excited to spend his first love day as a couple. When Gwen calls him up and asks him on a date, he grabs the roses and heads over to the ruins of windenburg. I’m sure he was wondering if Gwen got him a gift, but boy was he surprised when his first ever love day gift was...a baby. 

His head is flooded with a million thoughts. But he is a gentleman, and he does what he knows in his heart is right. This is the girl of his dreams! And he’s so excited to be a dad. Sure, its not ideal. But he is committed to being the best man he can be. 

Life sure does move fast, huh? First day of young adulthood, haven't even been to class yet...BOOM! engaged and pregnant. Cass goes home, to ask for advice. Dad  says, ‘Cass...Maybe its time that you hear about your grandmother, Harlyn...’

I finally loaded back into my Dredger Legacy for the first time in forever...and proceeded to ruin their lives. There was just too many sims in the household and I said maybe Atti should go for a dip! ...in the pond. simsie style. 

sorry atti, you were stylish and a drama queen, and you will be missed. 

but probably not by Mom, seen here literal moments after grim did his thing

It took her, no joke, 4 sims hours to show the sadness buff as the top buff. like all im saying is maybe she might have a cowplant accident soon? 

Everyone was pretty all around depressed. The twins (who apparently aged up last save) consoled each other and i missed it. Millie chose to do some yoga. Dad (Zion) threw himself into work and went into the office on his day off. His boss must have been impressed...or depressed...by this and gave Zion that last promotion. Congratulations Zion! You’re a Hall of Famer. 

Gen 3 Heir, Cass, tried to be the top tier scout that he is, and bravely went to the science center to work on his last remaining badge. His birthday is in 2 days and he is committed to achieving his goals in honor of his brother. Unfortunately, all his close friends have already aged up and are busy with their careers. Atti was his closest friend, and Cass just didnt want to be alone. He ended up sending a sad text to a girl in his club, even though he didnt really know her at all. Her name is Gwendolyn Griffiths and she looked kinda cute in the club directory- so we thought- what could go wrong? Shockingly, she invited us over for some comfort and NYE celebrations. 

look at our sad boi :( {learn more about Gwen under the cut}

Somewhere along the night, Gwen started really vibing with us. Like really vibing. Cass couldnt help but notice her flirty tone and realized just how pretty she is. He took a selfie so he can show off how pretty she is. Aren’t they the cutest!!!! 

We are still just too sad to make a move, but we wanted her to know we were interested. We gave her a romantic gift from our frog collection and Gwen loved it! Romance bar has got some pink in there! Cas went to bed with a little more hope.
