It didn't feel like Harvestfest with just the four of them, so I had Cam invite her sister Cece, sister-in-law Hanh, niece Nguyệt, aunties Iseul and Grace, and her maternal grandparents who are technically in Mt. Komorebi but you know. 😄

Cam hugs her niece Nguyệt, who's already aged into a toddler, and then greets and hugs her aunties. "I like your bracelet.” Cam says, and Grace grins. “Thanks, your auntie Is made it for me and I made one for her. She’s so sweet.” She says, giving a sappy look to Iseul, who grins. “I wouldn’t say she’s sweet per se, but it’s a nice bracelet.” Cam says jokingly as her auntie Iseul gives her a playfully grumpy look.

Piper and Min Jun hug Iseul as well, and then the group heads inside. Piper talks with Nguyệt and Cam’s heart melts a little as she sees Piper’s amber eyes light up as Nguyệt babbles to her, and the soft voice she uses with her. Cam glances at her auntie, who’s grinning. “What?” She asks. “Nothing, I just think it’s sweet how much you love Pipes.” Iseul says, and Cam blushes. “I do. It’s corny, I know, but I just love her so much and I fall for her more everyday*.” She says. “It’s not corny at all, Cammy. I feel the same about Gracie.” Iseul says, and Cam smiles.

Finally, it was time for Piper and Cam to graduate from high school. They showed up at the auditorium and I think the game decided to give Piper the regular graduation gown and cap but no shoes and changed it completely to beige and blue lined gown and purple cap for Cam. I was like eh, let’s just let the ceremony happen. 😅

As Piper and Cam’s respective families take a seat*, Piper smiled shyly at her girlfriend. “I’m so nervous, Cammy.” She says. “Me too. But I’ll be okay.” Cam says, giving Piper a quick kiss on the cheek. One by one, their principal calls the name of students and hands them their diplomas. Piper gets up when she hears the principal call her name, and she grins and takes the diploma before doing a high five with principal Lum-Choi (she got married again over the spring and changed her last name) as her moms and brother cheer and clap and Principal L congratulates her. Cam is called after a couple students, and she shakes the principal’s hand and gets congratulated as well as her parents, sister, and auntie cheer her on. She meets Piper’s eyes in the audience, and smiles softly at her. As scared as Cam is of the future, she knows she’ll have Piper with her in whatever both of them choose to do**.

I had Tess, Luna, Chrissy, Megan, and their respective kids visit Tess’s moms’ house in Willow Creek. Unfortunately they got there so late that all there was left to do was sleep. Tess and Megan slept in Tess’s old bedroom on the third floor, Piper, Hamuera and Emily slept in the large as heck kids room that Olivia and Angie had set up on the second floor, and Luna and Chrissy took the guest bedroom on the first floor.

Piper meets up with her friends by the Darcy's den commons. Piper hugs Darren, then Lily, then her friend and cousin Amir. She teases Darren lovingly for his new facial hair, compliments Lily's hair, and ruffles Amir's hair playfully, making him grumble that she ruined his effortless messy style. "Sure Ammu." She says, using his childhood nickname. "Okay Pie." Amir teases back, using the nickname his sister Emily had used when she was a toddler and couldn't say Piper.

Later that day, Casey and Malaya's friends Cam and Piper come over. Malaya shows Lilia to her auntie Cam. "Aw, she's so cute Mal." Cam says, and Malaya smiles. "Right? I can't believe she's almost 8 months." Malaya says, tickling her daughter's tummy and making her giggle. Lilia lets out a fart (she has the gassy trait too), making Cam and Malaya laugh. "She gets that from Casey, not me." Malaya adds jokingly, and Cam grins. "I can believe it." She says, while Casey grumbles playfully at the two of them.

After that, Casey shows Lilia to Piper, and she coos over her. "Awww. Hey nooboo, its auntie Piper." She says, making silly faces at her niece*. While Cam chats with Casey, Piper talks with Malaya. "How are you doing, Mal?" She asks gently. "Tired as hell, but I'm trying to take it one day at a time and just enjoying spending time with Lilia. Plus, my moms have been helping Case and me so much and I'm grateful as hell for that." Malaya adds, and Piper smiles. "I understand, and I'm not a parent but for what it's worth, I think you and Casey are doing a good job." She says, and Malaya smiles. "Thanks Pipes." She says, her smile tired but warm.

Cam and Piper meet up at the Larry's Lagoon commons after Cam's class, and Cam smiles softly at her girlfriend. "Pipes you look so beautiful, you're practically glowing." She says, and Piper blushes. "Thanks Kang. I'm trying a soft and more dewy makeup look so that's probably why." Piper says. "Still, you always look beautiful." Cam says, and Piper nudges Cam. "Cammy." She says, but smiles too. "Also, I was very inspired by this cute outfit Donna wears in Mamma Mia 2, so I used this t-shirt and skirt from my closet to recreate it." Piper says, and Cam nods.

After running into Cam’s friend Casey, and Piper’s ex girlfriend Malaya, who's currently dating Casey, the four of them head inside. Piper and Cam both get blackened bass and sit down at a table to eat and talk about their days.

Also, I included the music video "the name of the game" that features one of Donna's many cute outfits I got inspired to give Piper.

Iseul heads to Megan and Tess’s room and runs into Luna. "Hey Lu." She says, smiling. "Hey Is." Luna says, blushing. "I like your dress." Iseul says, and Luna grins. "Thanks, I got it cause I love moon themed stuff and purple. Plus, I like your jacket." Luna rambles, blushing again as Iseul grins. "Thanks, I snagged it from thriftea." Iseul says, giving Luna a playful look. Luna’s had a mini crush on Iseul since she met her, more of a random one than she actually likes her, so she goes into ramble mode whenever she sees Iseul.

While Luna hangs out with Iseul, Megan, Hamuera and Emily, Tess hangs out with Chrissy and Grace before I took a random photo of her looking cute and wearing the necklace Megan gifted her. 😊

Iseul and Grace decide to leave at 8 pm to head back to Copperdale and pack for their trip back to Simland. They say goodbye to the family, and after that everyone other than Piper, Megan, and Luna head to bed. Piper goofs around with her mom and auntie and tells them stories about her funny professors and interests classes, and regales them with a few Winterfest themed songs.

Later that morning, Piper swims playfully around in the pool in her mermaid form as her moms start to get up in their room. They’re very lovey dovey as they say good morning to each other and check in with each other, and Chrissy pulls Luna close to kiss her cheek. Meanwhile Tess sprays her plants for bugs, and Megan gets up just as a video call comes in from Iseul.

“Good morning, Issy.” Megan says, smiling as she sees Iseul’s slightly tired but cheerful grin. “Morning Megs.” Iseul says, her voice slightly husky from sleep and Megan ignores the random shiver she gets from hearing it*. “Everyone’s still asleep and I’m sitting in the kitchen so I don’t disturb them.” Iseul says and Megan nods. “How was your Winterfest?” She asks. “Good, Gracie and I had amazing time with my family, I loved seeing Min Jun, Paenji, and Cammy. We’re heading to Simland in a few days to visit the Siddiquis and I’ll see my other niece Cece so I’m happy.” Iseul says, and Megan smiles. “That’s great, Issy.” Megan says. “How was your Winterfest?” Iseul asks, her dark eyes on Megan’s. “Good too, we mostly just relaxed. Luna made her grandpa’s chicken tikka recipe and I made some brownies and we exchanged gifts and had a chill day.” Megan says. “That sounds so good.” Iseul says. Plus Iseul asks if she and Grace can come over to visit. “Sure, Tessie and I are home.” Megan says, and Iseul grins. “Great, see you, Liao.” She says. “See you, Kang,” Megan says, laughing and shaking her head as Iseul winks and does the finger gun motion to the camera. “You’re cheesy as hell,” she adds, and Iseul laughs too.

Piper and Cam both get visits from their respective family members. Piper’s grandpa Brant comes to see her, and he gets sappy as soon as he sees his granddaughter. "Pipes, you're growing into such an amazing young woman and your grandpops Brent and I couldn't be prouder." He says, and Piper smiles, blinking back tears as well. "Thanks grandpa." She says, and he smiles at her. "He wanted to be here too, but we just got Rosette spayed and someone has to stay with her." He adds, and Piper nods. He and Piper head out to the backyard to chat and catch up.

Meanwhile, Cam's auntie Iseul is over too. She gives Cam a bear hug and Cam smiles. "Cammy, how are you?" She asks. "Good, auntie Is. How are you?" She says, smiling at her favorite auntie. "Good." Iseul's eyes sparkle and Cam grins. "I bet, I saw those cute photos you took with auntie Gracie." She teases, and Iseul blushes. They sit down at the couch, and Cam teases Iseul about her girlfriend Grace while Iseul teases her back about Piper.

"Speaking of Pipes, where is she?" Iseul asks. "Her grandpa came over so she's chatting with him." Cam says, and Iseul nods. "So, how's college been?" Iseul asks. "A bit tricky at first but I think I've gotten the hang of it." Cam admits. "Yeah, you really have to discipline yourself and stay on top of things. I remember it was tough for me for the first two weeks, but I met Megs and she helped me study and find a way to make it fun for us. I don't know how I would've got through the first two semesters without her." She says, and Cam grins. "You know, you always bring up auntie Megs*." Cam says, and Iseul blushes. "I have a lot of great memories with her, plus she's the kind of person you meet that you connect with right away and wonder where they've been all your life, platonically in our case." Iseul says lightly, and Cam gives her auntie a scrutinizing look, but nods. Cam sometimes gets the suspicion that her auntie Iseul is still a little bit in love with Megan but hopes she's wrong.

Cam and Piper pass the next few days in a nice routine. They have breakfast every morning, usually joined by Teulia who also has morning classes since Izumi has evening classes and wakes later. Then they spend some time together if they’re free or study separately, or Cam practices for chess or relaxes while Piper reads or draws. They attend any classes and have a quick lunch separately on campus, and finish their homework before having dinner together with Teulia just as Izumi comes home and joins them. The four of them get along well, and chitchat about classes and life. Finally, at the end of the day, Cam snuggles up with Piper and cuddles her as they drift off, the smell of Piper’s coconut shampoo and body lotion filling her senses and making her smile. They woohoo when they have time, and Piper feels completely confident and safe with Cam, and Cam feels the same. Although the first time woohooing was amazing, Piper feels like it’s gotten even better since she and Cam talk about what they like or don’t like during woohoo, and what they’re both comfortable with doing together and so forth.

On a Thursday night, Piper and Cam both get ready to use the shower. “You go first, you have shorter hair so it’ll take less time.” Piper says. Cam laughs, and her smile turns mischievous again. “You know, we could both go together.” She says, and Piper blushes. “Oh-I-okay.” Piper says, even though she and Cam have woohooed so it’s nothing new, she’s still a bit shy about it. Since their roommate Teulia is asleep and Izumi is at her night class, they have some time and woohoo in the shower. Cam grins at Piper as they get ready in their room for bed, and Piper blushes again. “Stop moon eyeing me, Kang.” She grumbles good naturedly but smiling. “I can’t help it, Feldman-Chen.” Cam says softly, her brown eyes warm as she looks at Piper. The next morning, Cam heads off to give her presentation after editing it to make it better, and she still has Piper on her mind as she walks to the campus shuttle stop. She can’t stop smiling, and she blushes as she thinks of last night with Piper.

After school, Cam and Kiran come over to hang out with Piper and Emily respectively. While Piper flirts and checks in with her girlfriend Cam, Emily hugs her friend Kiran. Plus, Iseul comes over to hang out with Megan and Tess, and Hamuera greets her. "Hey auntie Is*." He says. "Hey Hamuera. How was school?" Hamuera makes a face. "Mostly okay. Auntie Is, can I ask you for advice?" Iseul nods. "How the heck do you ask out a cute girl when you're awkward as heck and have a hard time looking her in the eyes because you keep getting shy?" Iseul smiles. "Oh okay. I'd say work up to it, like maybe ask her to do something casual like hangout and then see if she feels the same way for you and ask her once you're more comfortable with her." Iseul says, and Hamuera nods. "It sounds so simple but I still feel throwing up and fainting at the same time when I think about it." He confesses anxiously, and Iseul nods, patting him on the shoulder. "Okay, just start with asking her to hang out and see where it leads." Iseul says. "Thanks auntie Is. I know you're technically Cam's auntie, and Piper’s future auntie-in-law, but it's nice having you around. You and auntie Megan are like my cool old person aunties." He half-jokes, and Iseul laughs. "Thanks a lot, Hamuera." She says.

Cam and Piper meet up at a nearby picnic table on campus, and Cam chats with Piper. "I think I got the formula for one question wrong but I think I did pretty good." She says. "Yeah, I'm sure you'll get a 95 like always." Piper adds teasingly, and Cam grins. "I was hoping for a 96 at least." She teases back. "But honestly it's fine. I think I just want to keep my GPA at a good level." Cam says, and Piper nudges her with her shoulder. "Nerd." She says lovingly, and Cam nudges Piper back. "Excuse me, who talked for hours about pre-sim Renaissance artists and their techniques and styles?" Cam teases back, but she smiles at Piper. They get changed and ready to head to the Kang house in Copperdale and Piper pulls Cam in for a kiss before randomly deciding to play a horn prank on her. 😬*

Piper and Cam wake up at 8 am, and Piper sits with Cam in her room as she does some last minute studying, keeping it light so she won't get overwhelmed with facts and formulas. At 10 am, Cam gets ready to go and take her final, and Piper walks with her to the elevator. "Good luck, Cammy. You've got this." Piper says, reaching up* to kiss Cam before hugging her tightly. Cam pulls her close for another kiss, and Piper smiles. "Cammy, as much as I want to keep kissing you, I don't want you to be late for your test." She says as Cam kisses her neck. "You're right." Cam says, sighing in a jokingly dramatic way before she grins at Piper. "Okay, I'm going." She says, giving Piper a peck on the cheek before getting in the elevator and heading down to the quad to rush to her class.

After their woohoo, Cam snuggles up with Piper. Cam pulls Piper close, and Piper strokes her cheek. "You'll do amazing on the mechanics 101 test, Cammy. And after that, we'll go to your mom and dad's house and see them." Piper says, and Cam smiles at her. "Thanks babe, I think I've studied as much as I can. Honestly I can't wait to see my parents." Cam says softly, and Piper leans in to kiss her one more time before they snuggle up to sleep. "Night, Feldman-Chen." Cam murmurs. "Goodnight Kang." Piper says, snuggling back into Cam and smiling as Cam wraps her arms around her.

So the pose I used is @simmerberlin's Lost In You pose, and as well as being a cute pose, it uses a single bed which makes me happy cause I was looking for a single bed couple cuddle pose. 😄

Back in the main universe:

It’s 9:30pm, and Cam is in her girlfriend Piper’s dorm room. Piper’s not too sleepy yet, but she’s lying down and resting, and Cam sits next to her on the bed. Cam sighs and lays down across Piper’s side, resting her head on Piper’s hip. “What’s wrong?” Piper asks. “I’m just feeling homesick. I know I saw my mom and dad and Cee a few days ago, but I miss them.” She admits. “Oh, Cammy. Why didn’t you tell me?.” Piper asks gently as she gets up, and Cam adjusts to give her space. “I felt kinda embarrassed, I mean I was fine for the first three months, but I see posts on simstagram of my dad baking something fancy at home, or my mom snuggling with our dog Oscar on the couch, and I miss being back at home with them.” She admits, and Piper strokes her hair. “What if you head to Copperdale to see them after your last final tomorrow?” Piper suggests, and Cam nods, her eyes brightening. “Yeah, I think that could be good.” Cam says, and Piper grins before leaning into gently kiss Cam. “Would you want me to come with you?” Piper asks after they break apart, and Cam nods. “I’d love that, Pipes. Thanks.” She says, and Piper smiles. Piper kisses Cam again, and pushes her back onto the bed and they kiss for a bit before breaking apart as Piper tucks a lock of Cam’s hair behind her ears and Cam looks into her eyes. “You know, I read somewhere that woohooing can help calm nerves before a big test. 65% of college age participants who woohooed with a partner said they performed well on exams.” Cam says, grinning, and Piper laughs. “Kang, you don’t have to use random studies, just tell me you want to woohoo with me because I definitely want that as well.” Piper says, and Cam grins. “Okay. Piper Feldman-Chen, I’d like to woohoo you.” She says, and Piper blushes as Cam starts to kiss her neck and shoulder.

A random as heck photo of Piper’s nana Maya comforting her wife/Piper’s grandma Kaitlyn because I think their pets Coco and Cosmo* passed. I had invited them to see Piper as well, but I think they were so sad that after hugging Piper they just stayed outside and talked.

But anyway, Piper’s auntie Tess comes home from her jog, and she heads upstairs and kisses her wife Megan’s cheek. She grins as she sees an excited look on Megan’s face. "What is it, honey?" She asks. "Our niece is home from college." Megan says, and Tess’s light brown eyes light up. "What, really?" Tess asks, and she grins as Megan nods. Piper comes up the stairs just then and pops her head into Hamuera’s room, where Megan and Tess are chatting. "Auntie Tess!" She says, and rushes over to hug her. "Pipes!" Tess says, hugging her niece back. Tess grins as she looks at Piper, trying not to get too sappy. "You got half an inch taller." Tess teases, and Piper grins. "I think it's the college atmosphere." Piper jokes, and Tess laughs before hugging her niece again. "Seriously Pipes, I'm so happy to see you." Tess says, and Piper smiles. Her auntie Tess had been around as long as Piper could remember, and she still has fond memories of her auntie playing with her as a toddler, cheering her up after a bad day in fifth grade, giving her advice for when she had a crush on her then girlfriend Malaya, and after that a cute guy in her art class named Alex who she didnt end up asking out, and her current girlfriend Cam after that.

Now, Tess asks Piper about her classes, college life, roommates, and Piper tells her. She also adds that things are going great with Cam. "I think we might move in together in our third semesters." Piper says, blushing as her aunties tease her lovingly. "Shut up, auntie Tess. You and auntie Megan are always moon eyeing each other too." Piper teases back, and Tess blushes while Megan laughs. Later that night, Cam snuggles up to Piper in her room after chatting with her parents, sister, and auntie Iseul on the phone for a bit. They both have classes so they have to head back the next morning, but they enjoyed spending the day with Piper’s family and Piper tells Cam she'll go with Cam to see her family in Copperdale next time. Cam nods sleepily and snuggles deeper into Piper’s shoulder as they both drift off.
