The Fox Legacy 3.2
Mercury: Mom, what is a square root?
Amalthea: That's nice, dear.
This is a pretty good example of Amalthea as a parent. She means well. Mostly.
Saturn is as crazy and as environmentally conscious as ever.
Saturn: By God, this is the hand that filled an entire bathtub with water when a quick shower would have sufficed!
Saturn: WITH THIS HAND I HAVE COMMITTED THE UNFORGIVABLE ACT OF WASTING WATER.
Saturn: *GAK* AND BY THE SAME HAND *ERK* I DIE! IT IS NO LESS THAN I DESEEERVE
Toby, that is nightmarish.
Toby: WHUT! I love Apollo's cooking. Is that a crime now?
First of the twin birthdays! Saturn was a JERK and decided to have an episode in the hall instead of being in this shot.
Calypso: Must I pretend to care? *hooonk*
Cute! Pretty! Antares is so.... yellow. He is pikachu. I love it. He rolled the ~*~dramatic*~ trait. LOL
And Saturn, well. He's not bad. He rolled green thumb. Naturally.
Apollo: Kid, you've been a teen for like 10 whole seconds now. When are you going to start working out??
Antares: Beloved Patriarch, if this is the task you set before me...
Antares: THEN "WORK OUT" I SHALL. Thank you, Grandfather. Your wisdom is invaluable.
Apollo: My dear Noble was right about you after all! *beams rays of approval*
Antares: I shall not, nay, I can not fail.
Apollo: *approvesapprovesapproves*
Saturn: Great, now Granddad favors him, too.
Saturn: YOU'D never pick Antares over me, though. Would you, you sexy thing?
Plant: *is a plant*
Saturn: I don't need to work out! Look at this physique! *flexes twig arms*
Antares: Grandfather, I appreciate that you are so very fond of me, but...
Antares: Must you follow me everywhere?
Apollo: This can't wait! Follow me outside.
Apollo: This thing has been sitting here since you and your siblings were born. I figured if anyone is going to finally ride it, it should be Noble's favorite.
Antares: A MOTORCYCLE!! YOU'RE GIVING THIS TO ME?
Antares: I SHAN'T FORGET THIS KINDNESS, GRANDFATHER
Apollo: Again with the shouting.
Antares: AS LONG AS I LIVE I SHALL... oh... oh, I feel faint. I... *drops like a sack of bricks*
Antares: zzz
Apollo: ANTARES! SPEAK TO ME!
Antares: Grandfather was right to bestow this gift upon me. Surely it will aid me in finding my soul mate.
Saturn: So, I bet you think that bike is a one-way ticket to a girlfriend, huh, bro?
Antares: Well, yes.
Saturn: WELL IT ISN'T.
Antares: It's not?!
Saturn: Not. at. ALL. I wouldn't get on that thing unless you want to become MASSIVELY unpopular. Know why?
Antares: Why?
Saturn: Does the word "HYDROCARBONS" mean anything to you? What about SMOG? That machine is a destroyer of air! Wouldn't you rather take a nice stroll, or buy a bicycle? Or carpool?
Antares: Oh. This is another "green" speech.
Saturn: BECAUSE YOU NEVER LISTENNNNNNNN
Antares: I don't have time to care about the earth. I'm too young and beautiful.
Aw yeah. Pikachu is on the prowl.
Calypso: Dear sister, how would you like to earn some easy money with me?
Mercury: Easy money?
Mercury: What about this is easy?! I'm doing all the work!
Calypso: Your kind is better suited to physical labor.
Mercury: OMIGOD! I didn't burn it!! MUST SHOW MOM
Calypso: Oh, naturally. I'll just stand here and sell all this nothing, then.
So here's an amusing glitch. For some reason Apollo would not stop working out, NOT FOR ANYTHING. He'd spend a few second making that turkey dinner, then SQUAT THRUSTS! Then more cooking. THEN MORE SQUAT THRUSTS!
Saturn: I TOLD you already! I've tried!
Saturn: Oh don't go turning this around on ME. You and your ridiculously high expectations are the real issue here!
Antares: Muh?
Saturn: AND LOWER YOUR VOICE! YOU WOKE UP MY BROTHER AGAIN!
Antares: Arguing with the Earth Spirit?
Saturn: She is a harsh mistress.
Saturn: Oh, heh.. Hello little sister. Did we wake you as well?
Calypso: I will never get these hours of sleep back. I hope you and your crazy are satisfied.
So look who Antares invited over after school! It's the lovely Kashvi Johar, made by gossamersims !
Antares: Welcome to Fox manor, Kashvi! Now I don't want to sound like I'm trying to scare you off or anything, but let me prepare you a bit for my family.
Kashvi: You mean like that confused looking old man wandering your yard in his bathrobe?
Antares: Yes. That would be my grandfather, Apollo.
Apollo: Oh, a guest! And it's a GIRL! I'll have to make something nice for dinner.
Antares: My little sisters and Mother are over there by the muffin stand. Mom might say hello, but I doubt it. As for my sisters, well. it's best to avoid their little world.
Calypso: You call these MUFFINS? How am I supposed to move product like this?!
Mercury: If you want better muffins, YOU bake them. My arms are tired.
Antares: Yeah. And uhh *looks around*
Antares: If my brother says anything to you, I mean anything at all, please just ignore it.
Kashvi: Hm.
Antares: So then I said, "That's your idea of art nouveau? It doesn't exactly smack of the Belle Époque."
Antares: But enough about me! I want to hear about YOU! What are your thoughts on "settling down" so to speak.
Kashvi: Settling down? Is this the kind of stuff rich kids do? Talk about things that no one understands for hours, plan marriages, and eat grilled salmon?
Antares: WAS IT NOT TO YOUR LIKING??? I TOLD GRANDFATHER HE LET IT SEAR FOR TOO LONG!!!
Antares: EVERYTHING IS RUUUUUINED!!!! *dashes away*
Kashvi: Antares, wait!!
Kashvi: All I meant was that I'm more used to eating at Taco Bell and then making out under the bleachers.
Saturn: *stalk*
Kashvi: I probably was too blunt again. I'm always doing that.
Saturn: *stalkstalk*
Saturn: I wouldn't worry about it too much.
Kashvi: JESUS HOPPING CHRIST, You scared me.
Kashvi: What do you mean I shouldn't worry? You don't think I was rude?
Saturn: Well, it's not so much whether or not you were actually rude to him.
Saturn: Honestly, he storms away from the dinner table at least 4 times a week. He usually forgets why by the next day. Just keep coming around and everything will be fine.
Kashvi: You think so? Thank you, Saturn. You're not at all like Antares said you were!
Saturn: Thanks. I think.
Apollo: Oh geez. This isn't a good feeling.
Apollo: I'M COMIN' TO YA, NOBLE.
Toby: Bum. mer.
Mercury: I'M TOO YOUNG TO BE FACING MORTALITY!
Antares: OUR BELOVED PATRIARCH FALLEN AT LAST! Oh how my heart reaches out to you. YOU GO WHERE I CANNOT FOLLOW!
Antares: HARK, the gaunt figure of Death approaches. BEGONE FROM MY SIGHT, WICKED APPARITION.
Antares: THE ROOM! IT HAS GONE COLD! I FEEL SO WEAK
Death: Is he always like that?
Apollo: Yeah, he's always shouting. I love him and all, but I think you can understand if I want you to hurry the procedure along a little.
Death: Right-o.
Antares: CHEST PAINS. CHEST PAINS!
Death: Well, I'm all done here. I'll be on my way now. Oh, 'sup Mercury?
Calypso: Did... Did Death just say hi to you?!
Mercury: HE TOTALLY DID. *SOB*
Since he had not yet made Apollo's death yet enough about him, Antares decided to pretend to faint in the kitchen. xD
Amalthea mourned her father's passing alone and fell asleep on his bed, which she'd never done before. His portrait watched over her. It was quite sad.
With Apollo's passing, so went all the cooking skill in the house. The blondies here are reduced to foraging for whatever junk food they can find.
Calypso got over everything pretty fast and decided to get back to business. Mercury was less adaptive, so Calypso had to cook everything herself for once.
Old Lady: UCK. It's hard as a rock! I think I chipped my tooth! And what is this FLAVOR? URGHH STOMACH CRAMP
Calypso: Yeah, yeah move it along lady. No refunds.
Old Lady: HELP! HELP! THIS TINY WITCH IS TRYING TO KILL ME WITH SUB-PAR BAKED GOODS!
Calypso: SHHHHHHH! Alright, alright, geez! I'll give you this half-off coupon.
Saturn: Thanks for agreeing to meet with me after school, Esther(vayleen ).
Esther: No problem. It's Saturn, right? I've seen you arguing with yourself a lot around school.
Saturn: Not with myself actually, but that's beside the point.
Saturn: I'm thinking about organizing a school club and I'm recruiting founding members! I was thinking of calling it "Sunset Valley High School Student's Organization for the Beautification and Rightful Upkeep of Local Rivers, Dams, Lakes, Streams, and Ponds!
Esther: *deep sigh*
Saturn: What? What's wrong? Is it not catchy enough? Antares helped me shorten it!
Esther: Nah, it's not that. I just hear this kind of thing from my twin ALL DAY. Maybe you should talk to him instead.
Saturn: Twin?
Teddy(vayleen ): Yeah, twin.
Saturn: Oh.
Saturn: So you're eco-friendly, too?
Teddy: Uh, yeah. Just today I got home from helping replant the rainforest AND donated 800$ to the Butterfly Sanctuary. What did you do for the environment today?
Saturn: Oh, well, uhm. There was... never leave the sink... running... *mumble* recycling... *mumble* ...
Teddy: Oh? Is that all?
Saturn: NO! I also... uhh... well...
Saturn: GIVE ME A BREAK, MY GRANDPA JUST DIII-HIII-HIIIED!!! *SOB*
Teddy: WHOA! You are definitely touching me.
Saturn: Sorry, it's just been a hard couple of days.
Teddy: No, you're fine. Hey, next time you stop by, do you think you could, you know, put on a shirt?
While Saturn was meeting something of an environmentalist rival, Antares had finally caved in and tried to make dinner for the family in Apollo's stead. It's not a blackened crisp, at least!
Antares: Cheesy victory!
And finally it was time for the girls to age up!
Calypso: It is my birthday. Hurray.
NOOOOOOOO!!! Why are you that pretty??? That's ridiculous!!! Well, since I suck at this game Mercury was given the trait Born-Saleswoman which is funny because she and her twin couldn't sell muffins if their lives depended on it. I'm also happy because that weird-as-hell hair finally looks good on someone so I can USE it.
And Calypso, well, she looks like that. She rolled ...Frugal? I think?
