Global Legacy 3.0

[sushigal007]

Hello and welcome to the Global Legacy. Last time, our founder, Greece, was tragically killed by a falling sack of money. And as a giant FUCK YOU to his widow and children, the challenge rolled was for them to be locked out of their home. By the end of the week, the were frost-bitten, pee-soaked and thoroughly miserable, especially Grina, who suffered the addition indignity of being probed by aliens. The update ended with her leaving for college while Athens aged up into a teen.



The challenged rolled last week was for one unfortunate sim to become consumed by art, so I built a little art studio on top of the mausoleum. Hope you don't mind, Greece.
Greece: Nah, I'm cool with that.



As China has important things to do this week and Cheece is due to head off to college, I decided Athens would be the one. I mean, her life hasn't been all that great so far what with her dad dying when she was young and then spending a week on the lawn, so she's gone to paint her feelings.
Athens: With clay.



You done already?
Athens: Turns out I don't have a lot of feelings.



China: Bye kids, I'm going on holiday, I'll bring you back something nice.



It was neck and neck for several days, but Lithuania managed to creep into the lead at the last minute to win the spouse poll. They weren't the best of friends, so I decided he and China needed some time alone to get to know each other better.



Much better.









It can't all be 'making out in the hot-tub' though, China has vacation memories to get and I'm determined to get as many as I can this week. I love the tree ring messages, don't you?



OK, now you two can make out in the hot-tub some more.



China and Lithuania: Hurrah!



China now knows how to give a massage in four different ways. I suddenly realised it would be pretty cool if she opened a spa and sold Chinese medical remedies and stuff, but I've already played ahead and brought her other three businesses. Ah well.



China: Do I really have to meet the yeti?
Yes.



Bigfoot: -And then you slap your thighs.
China: This is actually kind of fun.
Bigfoot: And then you slap your ass. Then you slap your partners ass-
China: 'Scuse me?
Whoa, big guy, I don't have any Bigfoot romance mods, slow down there.



Lithuania: Can I bring home a souvenir?
Sure. What do you want?
Lithuania: An engagement ring.
Fine by me!



China: Hi! You look familiar, do you have a twin or something?
Hostess: No, I work in all the restaurants. I commute here from the mainland.



Despite wanting to get engaged, the option just wasn't showing up, so I had China work a little voodoo magic on Liet.
China: Can you feel the love tonight?
Lithuania: No... wait... wait! Yes I can!



China: Then marry me!
Liet: EEEEEEE!



Awww.



Oh and look what's conveniently upstairs.
Liet: Did you plan this?
China: Hey, I told the kids I'd bring them home something nice and what better than a new daddy?



Liet: I promise not to get too hung up on the fact that you're old and sterile and can't bear my children.
China: Right... well, that's what telescopes are for!



Liet: I love you.



Liet: I have no ulterior motives at all.



You may now kiss the bride.



China: LOLCAKE



Liet: *hack*hack*choke*
China: I will never tire of doing that.



And they finished off the wedding with some romantic photobooth photos.



Engagement AND a wedding? You betcha it was a dream date.



One final vacation memory to get here, a bullseye with an axe.



Now all China needs to do is order a photoalbum and become a frequent flier, yay!





Lithuania: As I can't have any more kids with China, I really want to get to know her other children better.
Good luck with that Athens want, you won't be meeting her this week.



China: I'm home! And I brought you back a new daddy!
Lithuania: Hi! I'm here to help with homework and any manly worries you might have.
Cheece: That's nice, whatever. Oh, I have one manly worry, can you help with these tomatoes?



Now Liet's moved in, I can take a peep at his LTW and job and skills and stuff. Sadly, he has no sense of self-preservation. He wants to be top of the Journalism career track and he's already at level 9, which means I can probably kill him next week.
Lithuania: Wait, what!? NO!



China: I'm so glad you've got a good job, my previous husband wasn't much of a working man and I could really use the cash to help with my epic business empire.
Lithuania: Yeah, sure, glad to help. Anything that helps make you eternally happy before I am.



Well shit, that's not good. China still only has two businesses and only one of those has reached level 10. I'm gonna have to concentrate if I want to complete her LTW before she dies of old age.



Athens: Hi, um, could I have a word?
Shouldn't you be painting or sculpting or something?
Athens: Yeah, about that. I don't wanna do it any more. It's boring and smelly and lonely.


I'm a terrible SimGoddess.



To work! I've decided if China's gonna get those five level 10 businesses, then she can't leave until they hit ten. So now she's so awesome at selling, she can actually manipulate people.
China: If you don't buy a ticket, my children will go hungry. You don't want to be responsible for starving children, do you?
Scotland: Well...



China: DO YOU?



Scotland: Fook off!
China: OK, that didn't go as well as I'd hoped.



China: I know what will make me feel better: if my baby girl is the best at everything!
She's locked in a room, covered in pee. Good luck with that.



China: You fuck in it and you're banned.
Townies: SLURP SLURP IGNORE IGNORE
China: I mean it. I don't know how, but I'll find a way.



Oh look who's dropped by to check the place out! It's Grina! In some really terrible outerwear.
Grina: You gotta go something about that clothing hack you use, you always forget it doesn't do outerwear.
I'm trying but BHAVs are hard.



And look who else popped by. It's Finland! And he's still pissed China married Greece.
China: Look, I'm sorry. Really. Please don't get pissy and drag down my star rating.
Finland: Apology not accepted. He was mine!
China: Well he's dead now, so you might as well get over it.
Finland: What!? When!?



China: You know what you need?
Finland: Revenge?



China: No! You need a new man. There's plenty more fish in the sea! And plenty more nations in the hood.
Finland: You're so right! Why did I let myself get hung up on Greece for so long?



Finland: There's a whole world of tasty men out there for me! How can I ever thank you for showing me the light?
China: Just don't fuck my new husband, that's all I ask.



The business isn't quite at 10 yet, but I got bored and decided to check in on Athens.
Athens: Boo hoo hoo, I'm covered in pee.
That's nice, I don't care. Go and paint.



Athens: I AM TOO LONELY TO PAINT.
Paint a self portrait and talk to it.
Athens: Fuck you, I hate you.



China: Thanks, but I'm already getting pumped with a workout here.
Gym Lady: OK, that's fine. I can wait to give you this card.
China: ...By which I mean I'm about to have sex, so get out of my house.



Athens: What the hell is that?
A sign that my defaults are missing.



Athens: I don't like it. Can I punch it?
Be my guest.



Athens: What the hell is this?
I fixed my defaults!
Athens: I don't like this one either.





Athens: I WANTED DROP DEAD FRED, YOU'RE A RUBBISH IMAGINARY FRIEND.
Social Bunny: I'll bet Ana's inner goddess and subconscious don't have to put up with this kind of shit.
No, but they have to live in Ana's head and listen to all her boring thoughts about Christian Grey. Trust me, you've got the better deal here.



Cheece: Hi sis! What are you doing?
Grina: Just um, taking some perfectly innocent photos. With my boyfriend. You might wanna turn around and face the other way.



Hooray!
*confetti*





It always amuses me when sims roll conflicting wants like this. At least with this one, she'd still end up +500 ahead.



Anyway, now the park's reached level 10, it's time for China to buy a new business and I've decided she's going to open a furniture store and sell all of Greece's old stuff. So check out the new home makeover.



What are you doing?
Cheece: Gonna lose my virginity.
No you're not, it's your mother's birthday. Go downstairs and watch her blow out the candles.



China: I can already feel the arthritis setting it.



HAHA. Been taking fashion tips from Finland? Because I think he's still holding a grudge.
China: Bah, I thought we were friends now!



A quick makeover and it's off to Acropolis Now. It doesn't take long for things to get busy and then customers started throwing their bags around because they had to wait a whole two seconds to be served. As China can't be in two places at once, I sent her home for backup.



Liet: Oof!



Lithuania: I know, I know, but it could happen. I mean, we do own a telescope.



It's SO ANNOYING when they do this and their spouses are right there.



This, though, this I like.



*fistpump*



Rome: Is this all Greco-Roman or is there any plain Roman stuff here?



Nipped back home to check on Athens, who is still refusing to paint because her social stinks.
Athens: I'm not talking to that thing and you can't make me.
Social Bunny: Hey, I'm not exactly thrilled to be here either.
JSYK, Athens has not created anything since her first day in the room.



But China's coming to the rescue! Witchery isn't all bees and zombies, there's also a spell to make people happy.



China: Not sure about this.



China: OK, plus 5000 for the hat. The hat's cool. But minus 5000 for the shitty dress.



Oh come on, at least cast a spell before you go rolling wants like that!



China: I'll admit, the flying is pretty sweet.



And then she and Lithuania celebrated her new magic powers with some hot tub sex.



And after days of wading through pee, Athen's decided she'd had enough and finally cleaned it up.



Athens: You know what? I'm feeling better now, I think I'll paint.
HALLELUJAH.



Pottery too? She's really making up for lost time here.



I downloaded some calendars from MTS with events on them. I got rid of them a few days later because they kept resetting back to the first day of winter, which is a shame. Anyway, today is Val-er, I mean, Lovers Day and I'm gonna let my simmies celebrate.



China: First, a little happy magic.



Athens: IT'S NOT WORKING.



I don't think I've ever properly introduced you to Cheece's girlfriend. Sadly she is named Quinn, not Mackenzie, which would've lead to dozens of Mac and Cheece jokes. They're going to the carnival for their date, and if Cheece doesn't win her a giant stuffed toy, you know heads are gonna roll.





Well OK, no stuffed toys were won, but they still had a dream date.



China had magic sparkles get stuck while she was doing tai chi. I just thought it was funny.



For Lovers Day, China and Lithuania celebrated with dinner at Londoste.





Another dream date.



Athens: You're kidding me, everyone else gets dates and I get another freaking Social Bunny?



Athens: Hey, hey, look at how high I can jump! Whee!
Social Bunny: Ugh, what an idiot.



Athens: I heard that.



Cheece: Good night, stepfather. Sweet dreams.
Wow, OK, that's kind of very creepy.



OH WAIT THIS IS EVEN CREEPIER.



Still, that spongebath did get her mood up high enough to go back to painting, where she maxed out her creativity skill.



Cheece: This should be enough.
For what?



Cheece: For the party I'm throwing!
China: Wait, should I really be going to work with all these kids here?
Too late, you're going.



Well OK, perhaps she should've stayed after all.



Turns out you can't get a roof raiser just for losing your virginity, you actually have to interact with the other guests too.



China is now a goddess OF ROCK. YEAH.



Sadly, while her mother was busy moshing and not casting happy spells, Athens' social tanked again.
Social Bunny: Did I miss the party?
Athens: NO-ONE INVITED YOU.



Shouldn't you be back in college?
Grina: When college gets a hot tub, I'll go back.



Social Bunny: Is she watching me? That's so creepy.
Athens: I'M creepy!? You're the one watching a teenage girl sleep.



I honestly have no idea if the stink is from her or the pizza.



Czech Republic: Nyeheheh!



Czech Republic: Free newspaper, score!





Athens: WAAAAAH I'M SICK OF PEEING ON MYSELF!
Does that mean you're not going to paint today?
Athens: I HATE YOU!



Lithuania: Tra la la... it's such a lovely day for a swim.
Oh Liet. Liet, please. You're so close to your LTW. If you don't want to die, I suggest you entertain me. Don't you have any dirty dark secrets from your townie days that I can use for fun?
Lithuania: Um. Maybe one.



Hmm. I may be able to work with that.



Austria: Hey, great party! In fact...



I'll start writing the eulogy.
Liet: Oh my God, would you stop that!?
OK, OK, sorry. I'll see what the new LTW is before I consider killing you, all right?
Liet: Oh, well, um, OK, but I was actually talking to them.
Who?
Liet: Look down.



Oh. You two are not invited any more.



England is though. Because Liet tickling the half-naked guy he beat in the heir poll amuses me greatly.



The parties are improving, I might manage a roof raiser by summer.



Lithuania: The party's over.
Spain: You're holding a cocktail, clearly you're a liar.



China: Time for some more happy magic.



Athens: I feel so much better now.



In fact, thanks to a "sell masterpiece" want, she's actually in platinum.



So it seems like as good a time as any to head over to China's fourth business, a little cinema.



South Italy: How are we supposed to buy tickets with this ticket machine in the way?
Damn. I thought that looked really neat too.



Evil witch: Who whoa whoa, someone hold my broomstick, there's ain't enough space on this lot for a good witch and an evil witch.
It's China's lot, so guess you'll be going. Bye!



Evil witch: First we duel!
China: Seriously, it's my lot, I'm not going anywhere.



Reviewer: I especially loved the live action Harry Potter re-enactment.



Back home for a break and Athens has finally decided to embrace her fate and roll painting wants.
Athens: I love painting now! Yay for painting!



And Lithuania becomes a dead man walking.
Lithuania: Oi. You said you'd look at my next want first.
Yeah, OK, OK, doing it now.



Oh. Actually, that's not to bad. Not too bad at all. All right, you can stick around a bit longer.



So. I have a hack that unlocks all the spells, but I also have custom spells that do require actual magic learnings, so while Lithuania does all the hard work of selling tickets and schmoozing with customers, China spends almost all of her time in the staff room reading from her magic book until her clothes change.



China: Do I have a rash? Tell me honestly.



Belarus: Lol, trolling.



China: What d'ya say, Mr Mickles? How about an urgent trip to the bathroom for Belarus?
I thought you were supposed to be a good witch?
China: I am. That's why I'm using Mr M. here instead of your custom peeing spell.



A few days of hard labour later and we have a fourth level ten business, yaaaay!



I celebrated by making China paint Lithuania but it came out a lot brighter than the other two so I might make her redo it.



First though, another party! I uninvited Germany and Russia this time and the hot tub promptly got taken over by new people. I don't even know who that it. I'm so good at keeping track of things.



Austria: Is there really supposed to be all this spanking in this dance?
China: According to Bigfoot, yeah.



Athens: Must've been some party. Not that I'm bitter about missing all the parties.
Oh yes! It's finally Tuesday and Athens is out of the art room. She managed to maximise her creative skill, but got no talent badges in pottery.



To celebrate Athens' release, I sent the trio on holiday so Liet could get to know his stepdaughter a little better. He decided he'd rather have sex with his wife instead.



China: It's so nice to see them having a pleasant conversation.
Athens: You guys sure make a lot of noise. Are you into kinky stuff like handcuffs and whips and stuff? My dad liked kinky stuff. Did you ever have sex with my dad too?
Lithuania: Excuse me!? No, I didn't.
Athens: Wow, really? 'Cause a lot of people had sex with my dad, you know.
Lithuania: ...I'm eating.



Athens: Doesn't it weird you out a bit, knowing we've got no clothes on?
Lithuania: Well, it does now.



Gotta say, this is a whole lot cuter than Cheece tucking Liet in.



China: Ah, this is the life. I don't want this holiday to end. In fact...



China: Abracadabra!



So... are you just gonna leave him like that?
China: Yup.



Eventually though, time had to move on.
Athens: This is gonna be SO COOL.
China: Is she playing with fire? That's it, I'm freezing time again.





Relaxing beachy spam.



Athen's does eventually get to play with fire and as you can see, she really is excited about it.
Athens: I'm totally doing this at parties.



In fact, she gets so confident with fire, she decides to have a go at walking across hot coals too.



Athens: Ow ow hot hot bad idea!
Oh come on, you're wearing boots.
Athens: SHUT UP, IT HURTS.



China: Limbo!
How low can you go?



Not very.
China: Hey, I'm an old lady. I'm not as bendy as I used to be.



The family that plunders together... uh, probably does so while cackling loudly? I dunno.



Lithuania: I found a treasure map. Does it do anything?
Honestly, I have no idea. Anyone else?



Lithuania: Arrr.



Lithuania: Help, my face is frozen.
I have reeeeeeally got to install the fix for that.
Athens: Have I mentioned how much I love painting? Because I really love painting.



But finally it's time to go home and roll a new challenge.



China: But I just redecorated!
Guess you're re-redecorating then. Until next time!
