This is why EAxis sims should never breed

another BAD combination is nervous subject and loki beaker. (yeah, i know that in real life two guys would never have genetic spawn with each other, but i'm twisted that way).
oh, give me hope. circe and nervous are both pregnant from loki. i guess it was rather unfortunate for me that nervous and loki had better chemistry than circe and loki. oh well, gives them character. :D

I do save before births, so just in case she would have spawned quadruplets (which really, really would not have worked in this house) I could replay and get a lower number.
Zazazu, the new TJ director cut lets you select "random", "maxis original", or "pick a number" at birth. ;)
Trips/quads has always allowed that, unless you use the Random Only option, which is what I prefer.

Nervous and Circe had a child in my game and she isn't exactly beautiful. She inherited Nervous' eyes, although if I remember correctly they are not dominant. But if you kept Loki in his original state (I changed his brows), the child would not have much of an alternative, the weirdest outcome I could imagine would be Loki's brows with Nervous' eyes.
I have to admit that I would have never let the above dormie breed with anyone. It is one of the ugliest face templates in the entire game and I think the son was lucky not to inherit the mouth of his father, his profile is bad enough. You don't have to follow any folly of your sims, especially since Daphne could have rolled a want to get engaged to somebody else only days later, shy knowledge sim or not.
Zazazu:
I do, though. It's my own rule set, which keeps things different (combination of rolling for things and watching for certain wants). I had hoped that, since the founder was knowledge and never wanted to do any romantic actions, and since the 2nd gen was Pleasure twins, one of which wanted to get engaged but never rolled the want to marry and the other of which just wanted to stay in the hot tub all day until she was thoroughly pruney, that she wouldn't want to be married and that she'd fall to the probe. The other two kids of the generation were Family (that's a given for marriage) and Fortune (50/50, but he found a 3-bolter and it was assured from there). I'm losing my alien genes slowly. I was at 80% alien up until Gen 4 started growing into adults. Now I'm at 50%.
Anyways, my issue is not so much that she chose to breed, or even really her choice of partner. Curve balls are what I want, and she did give me one alien child. My issue is that his genetics were inevitable. A check in SimPE verifies that basically every facial feature with him is marked as dominant, and the only thing that kept the kids from being his clones is that Daphne has quite a few dominants herself.
Orikes:
They don't look that bad to me, actually. Especially for the father who sired them. Sure, the son has a freakish nose, but the rest isn't THAT bad. Same with the girl. She's actually pretty, IMO.
I guess I'm getting more forgiving of unique genetics from my sims. I'm still a bit concerned about weird genetics, but.. feh. I've seen some really interesting looking sims come out of unexpected unions.
