Welcome back to the Magellan legacy! (relatively on time too, for a change).
A quick recap of what happened last time:
- Freya had hot angry sex with
maranatah's Jonny Eaves then married him and somewhere along the line had a few children too (Hermes, Ares and Hephaestus in order of age).
- Basically, that was it, there were a lot of birthdays and child related happenings in that update.
Last we left off we left Freya screaming over the bills so let's check back in with her now.
Freya: This place is a sty. Does nobody clean around here?
I think they expect you to, since you're home during the day.. just a guess.
Freya: Screw that, I've got heists to plan. Busy, busy, busy.
Jonny: Honey, when are those big piles of money expected to arrive anyway?
Freya: Not now.. eating cake... feel like a nap and some slouching in front of the TV...
Ares: Why do you always have to get in the way of my reading, jerk :[
Hermes doesn't care about anyone's reading.
Wait.. what the hell is going on with his tongue...
D:
D:
Let's just quickly move on to his birthday and hope that fixes it D:
Jonny: Wait a minute.. what's this orange glow?
Everyone (except Hephaestus): AARGH! FIRE!!!
Firefighter: Never fear, the fire department is here! Ugh.. what is that fishy smell...? *stands in the middle of the blaze*
Poseidon (the goldfish): I was nearly boiled alive! You think it's easy being a fish, well it sucks! And someone get me something new for my fishbowl, I'm tired of looking at the same castle every day.
Somehow Poseidon survived being on fire though.
Okay, let's try that birthday thing again.
Cute, facial clone of Jonny. And hasn't gotten any saner with age.
Hermes: Did I break the laptop? Eh... that thing's trash anyway.
Seriously, I dunno what it is with sims and breaking everything they touch.
Oops, forgot a birthday >.>
Gah, the tongue again! D:
Otherwise, again cute kid but another clone (of his mother).
Ares: Yes colonel dad sir, I cleaned my room and did my homework!
Hermes: Hehehe, nobody will suspect this...
Hermes: SOMEONE SHOULD SIT ON THE SOFA, RIGHT NOW. JUST SAYING.
They have strange tea parties in the Sims. Orange juice?
Freya: Wait, what!? The laptop broke! D:
Hermes is visiting his cousins after school.
Hermes: You should know by now that fire alarms are a gnome's secret transmitting device!
Hermes: But maybe you don't because you're not a genius, like me.
Hermes & Cousin #1 (actually her name is Mellissa, I looked it up): >:[
Cousin #2 (Efren, as it turns out) seems to be enjoying this anyway.
Freya: Nobody heard that, did they?
Ooh, another birthday.
An underdressed birthday :|
Ares: You couldn't put on some pants for my birthday?
Oh but Ares is a cute kid though :D And a great blend of his parents.
Hephaestus: Here, let me clean this up for you.
Ares: Mmhmm *too busy reading*
Hephaestus: *slurp*
Ew.
Ares: Help help, I want to read my brother a story but this dresser is in the way!
Ares, there's a door in the room you're in, use that. And you're supposed to have the genius trait? :|
Ares: Alright, get ready for the most exciting story every told!
Hephaestus: :D
Ares: This story has enriched the minds of sims all over!
Hephaestus: :DDD
Really?
:|
Looks like someone had another run in with the law.
Freya: Woooo, freedoooom!
Meanwhile in the family kitchen.
Jonny: I know you put that booby trap in the sink, you better not do that again.
Hermes: Don't hurt me!
Hermes: Hee, dad's gone, time to put the trap back.
Jonny: I am still here... you idiot...
Ares: *still reading his book* I better get out of here...
Jonny: I can't believe you'd be so stupid to try that again while I was still in the room (and still wet from the last trap)!
Hermes: (Uh oh, time to face the music).
Meanwhile Ares has failed to get out of the room due to getting stuck in the barstool.
Jonny: Again! I only went to put some clothes on and there's another trap in the sink! Why do you keep doing this!?
Hermes: Eeeeeh
Jonny: You're lucky I'm not forbidding you from attending the prom!
And so the boys head off to the prom in their finest clothes.
And have what must be the best night of their lives!
I hope you're not trying to potty train that doll...
Jonny needed a bit of time out on the town after that mess with Hermes.
Jonny: How can you say you don't like sandwiches!
Guy: What?
Marc the vampire: (what the hell is his problem?)
Jonny: And you! I see those fangs. You best keep away from the children!
Marc: You're joking right, I hate kids!
Jonny: You WHAT!?
Uh oh, trait incompatability.
Marc: You heard me!
:|
Obviously one shouldn't antagonize a vampire. Even your best military training won't win against that.
Hephaestus meanwhile is over at a friend's house doing his homework like a good kid.
Uh oh, someone's older brother showed up.
Teen: Hey, what are you doing here you little pipsqueek.
Like father, like son?
Hephaestus: Don't mess with me again!
O.O
Jonny: What is this I heard? You got into a fight? I thought we taught you better than that!
Uh....
Poor Hephaestus gets stuck in the corner.
Someone's excited!
Oh.
I missed another birthday.
Jonny: I'm all wrinkly :[
And another birthday.
Aw, he turned out pretty nice too. :D
Freya: Hiyaaa!
Someone picked up a book on martial arts from the consignment store...
Also, you may have noticed that the kitchen finally has walls and floors!
Ugh. Still no manners. And he needs a bath.
Just because you're old doesn't mean you don't have to keep fit.
Certainly not in this family.
Hermes: No Mr Fist, don't hit me! Aaah.
Hephaestus: You're moving the pawn there!? Why?
Ares: .....
Ares: Shut up! Both of you! I can't get 5 minutes of reading or chess time in without being disturbing by you lunatics!
Ares: Now, stay away from me while I read this book. IN QUIET.
Ares: .... D:
Hermes: *whistles innocently*
Hermes: Look dad, I said I was sorry. I didn't know the booby trap would break the thing.
Jonny: *grumbles*
Oh, did I mention someone has an imaginary friend? No?
Heph's Imaginary Friend: Look over here, a loser! Reading a book of all things!
Did I also mention that his imaginary friend's a jerk?
Well, he is.
Ares: Again with the lack of pants! :|
Yep, a real jerk.
Freya, that's your mother. Be nice.
Lol. I don't think this ever gets old.
Imaginary Friend: Oh and also, your house sucks. It's terrible! It's not even fully decorated!
Hephaestus: You know, you're right. I think it's because my parents are too busy to redecorate, if you know what I mean ;)
This family just oozes class.
Freya's had some promotions, atleast her attire is better now (even if the face mask takes the contacts away).
Damnit Ares, not you too! Are all the teenagers in this house having a mood swing rotation or something?
Imaginary Friend: Hey Hermes, you suck! BOOO!
This happens like every other day now.
Jonny: Your brother told me what you did! You're grounded, young man!
Ares: Like I care.
You know you do. It's just a mood swing.
And then... TRAGEDY struck the household!
The TV broke.
I quite agree, Ares.
Freya: Where's the hot angry sex been!?
Jonny: What do you want from me! I'm an old man. You want me to dislocate a hip!?
Jonny: Maybe be food for the flies soon!?
Freya: GAH, you're insufferable!
This is actually foreplay. Just so you know.
Somebody messed with the computer.
Any one of the teenagers could have done it really.
Although we have another culprit...
Yeah.. like I said. What a jerk.
Imaginary Friend: BOO!
Hephaestus: GAAAAAH
Hermes: Brother, are you alright?
Hephaestus: Man that scared me half to death.
Hermes: I think you've lost your mind, wow, crazy....
Pot. Kettle.
Hermes: Have the gnomes invaded your brain? Eh? If they have, tell me and I'll kill them!
Hermes: After I eat this fly, nom nom nom.
Hephaestus: See what I have to put up every day?
I'm sorry Heph, I'm sorry.
Birthday!
Aw, he's all grown up and such.
Traits:
- Insane
- Loner
- Natural Cook
- Perceptive
- Heavy Sleeper
Followed immediately by another birthday.
Aw. I think she makes an adorable elder, if I do say so myself.
Ha. Seems no matter what, parents want their children to follow in their footsteps.
I thought I'd invite her sisters over for a little reunion.
Embla: My how the house has turned out lovely!
Embla, Sif and Freya: *gossiping*
Hephaestus: (I almost think I'd rather be hanging with my imaginary "friend" than all these old ladies)
Imaginary Friend: Ha! You're such a loser you're never going to complete your homework!
Hephaestus: (I take that back)
Hephaestus: That's enough. I never want to see you again! Go away!
Imaginary Friend: FINE!
And that was the end of that (except for the part where he bugged out and kept reapparing briefly on the sidewalk every time I loaded my game fresh).
Ok last birthday of the update.
Ares: HERMES! PANTS, NOW!
*snorts*
Good to see the sims still age up in the most appealing getups.
*pinches cheeks*
Traits:
- Unflirty
- Technophobe
- Good
- Genius
- Athletic
And that means it's been decided. Well, it was decided when all the kids were just born and he was the only non-clone, but still.
Congratulations Ares, you'll be following in your mother's footsteps as heir to this family!
Ares: (Following mom's footsteps....?)
....
Ares: NOOOOOOOOOOOO!

See you next time, people! :D
Warnings: Language, innuendo, etc etc, blah blah.
