Also, the reason she hasn't just "fixed" the mess she made is because she hopes that having a fairy child will open the Hoppcrafts' eyes. (Maybe it'll work with James, but Miriam...)

Whenever I play with household the story usually goes like this; James and Miriam are abusive towards Alfred, and as he grows up he becomes a bitter, resentful young man. Eventually, an evil witch decides to take advantage of his fragile mental state and makes him her apprentice, training him to perform all kinds of wicked spells. Using some of the spells he was taught, he kills his parents and decides to put everyone in Moonlight falls under his control, including his master. Eventually, the daughter of the witch returns from her trip to France and is horrified by what has happened in her absence. She decides to take care of Alfred first by talking some sense into him, though it takes a few months (during which they fall in love). Then she and Alfred team up to stop her mother, which means killing her. After a long battle, they manage to finish her off and release her spirit to the Netherworld, making sure that she wouldn't be able to harm anyone as a ghost either. Alfred and the young fairy get married and start a family together, and that's where the story ends.

Maybe Flora is hoping the Hoppcrafts will soften up towards supernaturals now that their own child is one? It would suit them, having moved to Moonlight Falls. It's pretty arrogant of them to move there and think they can root out supernaturalism which is the core of this town - it was founded by a supernatural. Also, elderly people tend to be more calm and patient and let things solve themselves. Often, this is actually a wise thing. The desire to act here and now is very much a characteristic of impatient youth which is ironic, as young people have a lot more time to wait things out than elders do.

this theory sort of hinges on the supernatural state of fairy being a stand-in for being lgbtq+, i know its a slur that is sometimes used but also everything about this family gives big bigot vibes (the whole traditional values thing). maybe James was friends with Pip when they were younger, and possibly even more than friends. his mother finding him attempting a magic spell is a stand in for his mother finding out about his affection for Pip. her reaction to this scars James and makes him believe that this is wrong, so he becomes a supernatural sceptic (aka, homophobe). sorry if this is too much of a reach, but I do feel that a lot of the language the bio and backstory uses points towards this. it could also be less about sexuality and more focused around toxic masculinity and such, also. anyhow, poor alfred. i hope he's ok

For what it's worth, the Hoppcrafts have been surprisingly chill in both my Moonlight Falls games, and became supernaturals themselves in both as well. In my first game, Miriam became a vampire, while in the second she became a mermaid, and James became a werewolf in both. (Note: in both games I dumped a bunch of D&D cahracter based sims around town.) In the first game, one of my teens was talking with a sim based on my barbarian character, and it the background I noticed the Hoppcraft being...weird. They'd chat for a bit, then James would say something that made Miriam mad, and she'd start hitting him with a newspaper. Then she'd apologize, give him some flowers, and they'd start talking again until James made her mad and started the cycle all over again. I watched them after my teen went home (because curfew,) and they did that for 2 sims hours. -_-' In the second game, they befriended my household (almost all of which were witches) because they were babysitters with Alfred being one of the kids they looked after. They'd seen these people cast spells and occasionally complained about it, but still got along with the witch babysitters fine. Then I switched to another household I'd placed in town which consisted of my ranger and her deceased (ghost) parents. Her mom was a doctor, and thus ran knew James since they worked in the same building, and he kept hitting on her CONSTANTLY. And I'm like, dude. This woman's see-through, and obviously not human! Then I switched to another household (I kinda stuck a lot in there...) which consisted of fairy politicians, and they'd apparently also befriended Miriam since they knew her at work. Then when I switched back to the witch babysitters, I discovered the parents had gotten divorced because the mother had an affair with Miriam, but had broke up with her since then (but stayed friends with her) and had started dating Ayden Van Ghoul instead. So. They seem to be able to tolerate the supernaturals of the neighborhood, but their relationship with each other doesn't seem to be going so well, at least in my games...

My guess is James and Pip used to be friends as kids. James was more imaginative and was curious in magic, thanks to his fairy friend. But his strict and abusive mother punished him for that and traumatised him enough to make him hate magic and supernaturals. It feels like a plot of some family afternoon movie, about a man who loved magic, but now has to grow into accepting it again because of his son. My side theory is also that "magic" in their case is a metaphor for homosexuality. James trying out "magic" as a kid, was hinting at him exploring himself, but his mother was against it and sent him away, to set him "straight" in a law school. Now he leads a boring and painfully "straight" life, being a "supernatural-phobe" along with his wife. But just wait till his son grows older and James realizes he's "a supernatural"...

James is basically internalized bigotry: He was forced to supress who he is (that being or wanting to be a wizard) until he just accepted it and turns his self-hatred outwards, thus becoming this avid supernatural hater. I dunno. He could warm up to Alfred once he recognizes this struggle, but Miriam? I don't think she could change her mind, she is way too determined and has no reason to empathize with that. Somebody gotta save Alfred from James' fate! DX I have been re-watching a lot of your videos lately. It's impressive how it went from mostly reciting the (hidden) game information to much more in-depth analysis and even comedy. Looking forward to the next lore videos! They always inspire me to turn on Sims 2 and keep working on my own lore neighborhood. :D

I couldn't help but imagine giving him to Sophie's mom(so Sophie can have a sibling like her) but the new family makes sense & they could help the mom(I watched the vid involving her a minute or so ago but forgot her name) learn to raise her fairy daughter.

I might sort of have a theory. I just think it’s odd that the dad pretended to be a witch. Not that it’s odd he pretended but more of when it’s mentioned I think there could be more. I think before the dad went away he was given a potion to get rid of his magic and overtime thought it was pretend. Like parents would probably have access to an alchemy shop and if his parents did have a similar view on magic wouldn’t be out of the possibility that the moment it hits them that their kid isn’t pretending or it wasn’t a trick on the eye. It’s actually magic to find a cure and send him away because of how angry they were that their kid was that thing. I also think it could hint at a possible future for the newly made fairy. That his dad may find a cure for his kid playing pretend fairy. Could be wrong but just a thought the bio has put in my head for awhile. Like cant get the suspicion out of my head lol

Boy, this is interesting. My sims family does in fact have a fairy, although honestly, I knew nothing about the Hoppcraft's storyline until now. Sadly I doubt I'll rescue little Alfred, at least not with my personal household, as I only want them to have one child in their first generation. Having too many kiddos is very overwhelming! Doubt he'll be involved in my sim's stories later on either, as I try to avoid intermingling with townies too much.

In like my very first sim's game one of my sims was engaged to Alfred after having been high school sweethearts. I hadn't moved him in yet because house was too full and I didn't know about mods yet. The Hoppercrafts moved to another town taking Alfred with them and internally lore-wise I fear the worst for that version of Alfred. Also, Ms Lore pls hand over the Pixie and Puff save files I wish to join the give this boy a better life crusade.

I have to admit this family always interested me, even though I never played with them. I always watched them from afar, like Flora was supposed to do and in the first sign of something being wrong there, I was ready to take Alfred away. However, most of the time, Alfred himself will leave the family the moment he's teen (I suppose NRaas Story Progression, or the way I have it set, allowed that, but still, Alfred is usually the only teen in my games living alone). But in one particular case, after I saw poor Alfred (as a child, at that time), being yelled by his mother and ignored by his father, I decided enough is enough and used cheats to "adopt" him into my family, which, back then, was mixed fairy and werevolf family. And he became successfull bot builder in this story LOL He married Zack Durwood, whom I made witch, and they had five children, either through adoption or geneticaly engineered, neither of which was human Sim. Oh the irony of life. BTW, I hope Durwoods are next, because that's another family in Moonlight Falls that interests me a lot ;-)

Here is what I do when playing with them, and I leave him there but then a fairy finds out and the family is forced to move away and give their child up for adoption and then a fairy loving human can come and adopt him or a actual fairy will

Also, in my game, with free will on, James and Miriam actually fight quite a lot, and given that in the family pic James is the one holding the child, i'm headcanonig that James is trying to get over his bigotry towards supernaturals and be a good dad and you can't stop me ✨
