Laurince Legacy 18.6 / Randolph Legacy 10.5!
Last time, we had two different legacies with TWO different updates. Rather than recap everything, I've made a handy little cheaty post for those of you who need a refresher, or need a primer because you've only been reading either the Randolphs or the Laurinces. You can find it here!
The Randolph Gen 10 kids have been migrated into the Laurinces' neighborhood (Veronaville), and they are going to be sharing a dorm with the Gen 18 Laurince kids at Sim State University. One Randolph kid is bi, and everyone else rolled straight, and with there being nine Laurince kids and six Randolph kids, I opted to just leave everyone at their rolled sexuality rather than make everybody bi.
And, just in case you weren't around for the last merge/legacy end, at the end of this shebang, when I choose an heir, the updates will be posted under the Laurince umbrella with the next generation being Randolph Gen 11 and Laurince Gen 19 simultaneously. Also, after the selection of the Randolph Gen 10 heir, I'll be able to post a Reader's Choice poll where you can pick everything from your favorite heir to favorite moment to ugliest dude to favorite spouse!
The instant that I hit play on the dorm, I had sims from one family following one from the other about. Reeve's clearly attempting to interact with Psyche here.
And Aeolus is trying to meet either Raine or Roxy, but they're a little occupied playing with each other.
Somehow, Reeve disappeared and his twin, Robert, just autonomously lays one on Psyche. ...Rex?
...maybe one of the other girls would be a better match for you?
(...on the other hand, this might be my due results from stating how Psyche loves "everybody," since she rolled being bi AND Popularity.)
Ruth and Triton are sharing some mutual attraction...
Nike's hitting on Reeve, proving that the girls do have some game.
Oh, and here's where I realized that, while making all of the suites a bit more interestingly colored than their original Bork Generation 3 Yellow tones...I had neglected to add the all-important PHOTOBOOTH.
And Asteria's also got some Laurince love, as Ruther's over there flirting with her.
Oh, and because 9 Laurinces + 6 Randolphs = 15 playables, there's one dormie...this doppelganger of Cassandra Goth whose name I haven't bothered to learn. It's also important to note her arrival, because that means all of this ~romance~ was happening prior to like 9:30am.
Triton's attraction to Ruth is apparently not strong enough to keep him from wandering over to heartfart over the other female Laurince quad, Roxy.
Aaaaaand, it's not even 10am and we've got autonomous photobooth banging. It's Asteria and Reno, who I'm pretty sure have not interacted prior to this.
Eh, a couple of bolts and a 20-something short term relationship means sex, right?
...DAMN.
They're in Robert's bedroom, here. At least they've kissed each other!
Roxy and Raine continue to be completely oblivious to male attention.
Well, I guess it's logical to go after the identical twin of someone you think is hot?
Nike and Rex are just chilling now, playing poker with not!Cassandra.
And Richter really wants nothing to do with any of the current hormone-fueled shenanigans. Note Triton continuing to follow an oblivious Roxy through the common area.
All this food, and no one eating it!
Don't worry, I know at least some of them are going to need to rebuild their energy!
After a conversation, a little bit of flirtation--this is almost normal social interaction, guys! Bravo!
Triton had to settle for football tossing, apparently.
Look, honey, you guys are the palest people ever, I'm not really inclined to ship you two!
These two--it's just weird how instantly wrapped up in one another they are, considering one other brother was a half-second too soon and the other a half-second too late for Psyche.
Reeve and Ruther kept hanging out in the Randolph girls' suite--and Raine is apparently very amused when others fail to dance.
Aeolus finally gets to interact with a girl...and it goes horribly.
I'd like to point out here that Roxy and Aeolus have three bolts. Not that attraction has been coming into play in any way that makes sense.
See, someone finally needed the cafeteria!
Single-minded, much?
...Asteria, you don't look like you're having fun!
OH GOD
I BETTER GET MAJOR WANTS SOON
Fifteen sims with simultaneous class times and popups...not my idea of fun.
After both generations having some pretty severe winters, I actually am amazed they don't seem to mind that it's winter in the dorm.
I hope no one freezes after all the heatstroke over at the Laurinces'.
Nike and Rex are occupying a very special space in my heart for just hanging out together and...not just autonomously having random sex before they know each other.
The first meeting of Mohawks-R-Us shall now come to order...
REALLY RICHTER
REALLY
Psyche is trying to call Robert over from the opposite end of the lot. To throw a snowball at him. Good luck with that, dear.
Aeolus, I don't know if being a creeper is going to improve your negative relationship with Roxy.
Just let me put some finishing touches...
...and done!
Want to go have a snowball fight?
Sure.
WHY DOESN'T IT HAVE A FACE?
I don't know, penguin!
So despite some early flirtation, it looks like Ruther might've missed out on Sexapalooza.
These two? Only ones to come in autonomously before their temperatures got really low.
THE ONLY SANE ONES
And Richter isn't the only completely fucking insane one, I see.
Oh dear, I really like the albinos too much for them to hook up. The next generation would be invisible.
Reno, it's a book. It shouldn't be that fucking confusing.
Eh, I'll just daydream instead.
I don't care if you two are twins who like to wear matching underwear, that's still pretty damn creepy, Nike!
I feel legitimately sorry for cafeteria guy and not!Cassandra, being stuck in this madness.
Afraid Thanatos is going to find out you think his identical twin is slightly hotter?
Dammit.
Nike's just finding an excuse to be around to ogle Rex's violion skills.
If Reno hadn't randomly banged Asteria in the photobooth, I'd award these two the Most Boringest Laurinces.
Hmm...do I want to play with BOB or Robert?
Easy choice for Psyche.
It looks like the nuances of eyebrow arching became more clear to you, but whatever!
Is it weird for her brother to storm in here immediately after we finish to make the bed?
Suddenly, the whole photobooth thing for Reno makes sense. Boy has OCD like Thor Bork's siblings.
So, Richter has a problem. His two turn-ons are blonde chicks, named Laurince.
Sorry to any of his fans, but he's effectively shut himself out of the merge.
Even though Ruther hasn't been getting any action, at least he'll intermingle!
Then, it was getting late but no one's sleep clock had sent them to bed yet. We've got Triton just automously heading into Roxy's bedroom.
...and Psyche heading into Robert's. It'd be cute if they hadn't just all met.
Reno's not the only neat freak, I see. They can't wait two seconds to use the dishwasher, so outside to the trash they go!
Hey, Reeve, stop hogging the computer lab!
YAY. We're cutting down the crowds!
Poli Sci for Asteria.
Lit for Nike.
Poli Sci for Richter
Finally, some flirtation from these two. I swear, they'd been merely flirting with the idea of flirting.
Ruther just decides to look hot while sauntering over to the hotcakes.
These two continue to be all over each other, everywhere.
WAIT
NOW IT'S A CRUSH
Over at "normal human interaction," these two eat breakfast together.
It must be love, if he's still falling for her snowball shit.
Ruth and Triton are just playing outside.
I'm pretty sure this is about as close as Reeve ends up getting to interacting with the opposite sex the rest of this update.
Raine. I appreciate you cleaning up the plates, but you're gonna be out of the heir race if you don't find yourself a boyfriend.
Asteria wanders back into her dorm room...
...and finds this.
As abnormal as I find the quickness of the Psyche/Robert relationship, at least they interact with each other outside of the fucking.
Roxy's doing the hot walk...
...but Triton's a little busy.
On planet normal, these two share a first kiss. Aw!
Aeolus hunts down Roxy. THREE BOLTS. HE'S NOT THE SAME SKIN COLOR AS THE SNOW.
I noticed the dorm was at a tee in the road, and I took the opportunity to lay down some lot portals on those corners.
So. Helpful.
Raine, your love of dance is keeping you preoccupied. There's someone trying to talk to you!
Sure, Roxy already hit it, but she's half Romance sim. Experience tells me that she'd approve of her sister hooking up with Triton!
Your fun is in the shitter, WHAT'S WRONG WITH TELEVISION.
You can watch "So You Think You Can Dance," I promise.
Psyche here is the first of the Randolphs to slim down. Did it completely autonomously.
More major declarations~
Is it weird that I'm shipping this solely because of skintones? (They DO have three bolts!)
Yay!
STOP IT
...this was the point where I started canceling autonomous snow activities left and right, because half their temperatures were at the bottom of the meter.
That's one way to show a guy you're flexible, Ruth.
These two are also being adorably cute.
...bored.
Where's Rex?
...oh.
I don't know if I quite realized that violin was autonomously attractive until Rex here glued himself to it.
Ah, it's okay that Ruth finds Triton hot, since Thanatos finds Roxy hot?
Psyche rolled a major fear, so I took the opportunity to give her a major. I think I ended up with Art.
Sure, Ruther, try getting to know Asteria better! You flirted with her once, which is more normal interaction than your brother who's banged her twice!
So. Torn.
They are both adorable....
I think I put him in Physics like his brother.
Nike's sure to get along with her future sister-in-law!
Aw, I was kind of you two would save the photobooth for a later time.
...wow. Even the more normal ones find this method more attractive than the traditional one.
Why so shy, Asteria? He's seen you closer up than that.
Rex also plays coy.
I like Roxy.
She's got three bolts with your half-brother, though!
Speaking of three bolters who aren't interacting romantically, despite being on the cusp of falling in love with Thanatos, Ruth somehow has three bolts with Triton instead.
I would so do him...
Yeah, yeah, so would Roxy.
GODDAMMIT RICHTER
I'M SO GLAD TOMORROW IS SPRING
Art, cause drama profs are whack.
Why are you cheering this unhealthily codependent relationship, Roxy?
Ohhh...it's because they're best friends now, isn't it?
Speaking of more normal ways to foster that sort of friendship...
Roxy doesn't mind having two suitors, it seems.
I just want you to know you're hot.
Don't be a Ruth, Psyche.
Speaking of Ruth being dumb...
...and here's the peas to her carrots. Thanatos, who might actually be paler than that snowscape behind him.
Could you two perhaps pick a more convenient location for your dance party than the kitchen?
No?
Apparently, all it takes is lots of sex and dancing to be the first couple to fall in love.
And all I see is Ruther here realizing he's probably not going to be heir if the only girl he's tried to interact with is already in love with Reno.
Meanwhile, Raine finally flirts with Triton!
I'M AWARE OF YOUR OPINION ON TRITON'S SEXINESS RUTH
Ruther, you're starting to be pretty fucking creepy about losing your chance with Asteria.
So, blonde premade dormie walks by, and I let Richter interact with her. Hopefully the fact that she's not a Laurince won't wreck it for him.
Yay, flirtation is successful!
Wonder how long til the llama finds out Ruth's opinion on Triton.
Don't you want to get some of that food in your mouth?!
Wow, I missed what exactly caused this. I wonder if Reeve flirted with his brother's girlfriend.
Hmm...when she wants to get engaged, we'll see what happens...
Okay, this is Asteria and Aeolus both needing body skills to fill their grade bar.
...it ended with the side effect of them slimming down.
Raine was at the barre, and she was not wearing suitable active wear. So I fixed it! :3
This is almost normal, from you two!
...and Raine needed some aspiration, so the GC part of her started leaking out.
I'D HAVE BET MONEY THAT HE ALREADY KNEW THAT, RUTH
Raine doesn't want to be a Psych major, so that means I made her a Math major.
I'd decided that I was going to stop snapping pictures every time an established couple got it on...
...but then these two hit a milestone.
Aaaaand that didn't take long. It's almost like getting to know someone makes the relationship stronger!
...nevermind.
Oh dear, now there's a love triangle of sorts. But Triton's noticed, so maybe that'll be the end of it.
Oh god, Ruth's found him again.
Yet, she wants to marry and feed lots of GC to Thanatos. She really should shut up about Triton, then.
Rex came back from class, so we've got this.
By the way, even though I clearly adore these two, the engagement itself means nothing in terms of picking heir. Quimby wants to marry off six kids, so if I have six couples that want to get married, why do extra work?
...but I do love these two.
Happy that this is happening, too.
Physics for Robert!
And I deem these two smart swimmers. Since they waited for the snow to melt and all.
Well, it seems Shirtless has opinions about public woohoo.
...and this is to clear up any fears that Asteria isn't down with the cheese. She is.
Is Triton taking the opportunity of seeing Roxy with Aeolus...as an excuse to cozy up with Raine?
Fear of rejection counts as a want of doing, in my book!
I HEARD LOUD FALLING IN LOVE SOUNDS
Roxy and Aeolus, in Aeolus's bed.
Too bad Roxy's subaspiration doesn't mean that she's chosen a lifemate. Just one love of many.
WHY WOULD I NEED THIS
SHOULD I MAKE ROXY OR TRITON MORE IRRESISTABLE FOR THE LULZ?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hopefully, this was worth the wait. And the fact that I wrote it over the course of several days in various states of pain or lack thereof did not hurt it too much.
Who are you all rooting for in the heir race? I'll admit, I can't even pick a side. I kept rooting for Roxy and Triton to hook up with other people because I'm afraid I like them too much I'd pick them and kill all hope of offspring variety.
Hopefully, not too long to the next update. However, I have a feeling with so many sims to follow around, we're going to have three college update. And the Borks are still in Uni, so I'm going to get pretty sick of Uni, I think...
