The Madisons! 1.6
Warning: monotony, some woohoo and awkward moments
Yeah, this one was a bit boring to write... It's the same old same old in The Madisons, which is partly the reason it took me so long to get this done. Eh, but it's part of who they are, so sue me, lol. Terrance does get some hints of romance though and we get another surprise, surprise from Veronica and Justin. Hope you enjoy.
And we’re back right where we left off at The Madisons! with the twins having aged up to kids. In identical outfits and identical hair… I did change the style because I like the pigtails more~!
Here we have Helena, who is now insane… I guess all the favored attention from her father as a baby gave her delusions…? She’s only mildly afflicted as a child, though it grows drastically later.
And then there’s sweet little Alana whose toddler lessons have taught her the importance of family, as she rolled Family Oriented. She gets more attention from her father now as she’s fond of logic and working with her hands. 8D
And the first thing that happens… Helena walks in on Alana in the nude. Yep. They both get fairly embarrassed, which is beyond me because it’s nothing they won’t see on themselves, being nearly identical and all.
Anyways, Alana continues her shower and Helena stops off to hug her baby sister.
Ami: D’awwww!
And promptly rolls a want to write - actually they both do - so she gets started on her first novel, Tricksy Gnomes.
Yvie is a good girl and works on her homework as her mother continues walking around skimpy in her lacey bra thong. Justin approves. The children are immune because, like Norah here, they’ve been exposed to it since a tender age.
Justin: How’s the homework going?
Yvie: Almost done, I just hate science… What good is it going to do me anyways?
Justin: For one it teaches you to understand the dangerous nature of things. And that’s very important! Even a small match can cause a raging fire within minutes due to its properties, dear…
Ami: And he would know about that, sweetie. Slackers in his field end up with infernos.
Yvie: I still hate it...
Alana: Hey mom, what kind of books do we have? I want to do some research for a novel!
Veronica: Well, we don’t have too many, but we do have the basics on some skills and a few fantasy; your brother and father love The Warlock of Palladia if you need any examples of good novels.
Alana: I’ll have to read up on them then!
Ami: She’s such a sweetheart!
And then maintenance… >__>
Ami: She looks like she wants to kill someone... Meep!
Veronica: Oh, stop it! This alarm just sticks is all.
I followed the kids to school and was greeted with Helena mid-peepee dance, lol.
Terrance/Yvie: *stare and sigh*
Alana: Oh, wow, I wonder what school is gonna be like! *dash*
Veronica: Good morning, little sunshine! *nose snuggle*
Insane little Norah, just because!
Norah: Mommy loves meh most... A-huh, yes she does!
And time for work! Veronica takes most of the small calls gladly.
But when she comes home, she’s a bit disappointed with this scene.
Veronica: Why is only one of them doing their homework...?
Ami: Because the other is having a blast playing video games. *points*
Veronica: Helena… Why aren’t you over there with you sister doing your homework?
Helena: I was going to...
Veronica: No excuses, you go do your homework now.
Still the strict mom...
Alana: It’s your fault, you should have known better.
Helena: *mope*
Helena goes back to the TV after homework to watch the shopping network...?
And Alana begins her novel writing now that she’s had time to research.
Terrance is at work (bookstore), but where is Yvie you ask.
She’s at the Shark’s residence trying to make friends.
Yvie: Who in their right mind watches the Shopping Network for fun?!
Ami: *cough*
Yvie: Screw this, I’m outta here. This is NOT worth my sanity...
Shark Kid: Shh, this is the good part!
Yvie: Weirdo...
Ami: 0___0 Pedo-man!! Run Yvie!
Shark Pedo-man: What is this...? Is it really a little girl I see...? Must... resist... urges... to...
Yvie: *dash* This place is freaky!
Back home, the family is having dinner together. Terrance needs to finish his homework before anything else, it seems.
Herp Derp! Time for bed, twins.
On top of learning to talk, Norah gets potty trained today. I wonder where V stores her energy...
Terrance: So, I heard you went home with a friend after school. Did you have fun?
Yvie: I prefer to forget it even happened...
Terrance: Oh... well that sucks...
They’re still lovey-dovey, as usual.
Veronica: So what do you think? Good idea, or is it too late?
Justin: Any excuse to jump into bed with you makes me happy, Sunshine.
Ami: Are they talking about what I think they are...?
They get interrupted as the kids come home from school - duty calls and Veronica runs off.
Justin: Hi, son.
Terrance: Hey, dad. I have an hour before work... Hmm... Probably should do my homework.
Fires rage
and children do their homework.
Terrance runs to work as Veronica gets home and Alana pops in to do her homework just in time.
Terrance: Bye mom, I’m off to work!
Veronica: Good, they’re both doing their homework... Have a good day Terrance!
Helena: *grumble* How come she didn’t get in trouble...? *grumble*
Ami: Because she didn’t get caught, dear.
Veronica: Honey, I think Code Teddy is in effect tonight; we should probably get to bed early.
Justin: Sounds good to me. *smirk*
It’s an advantage to fall into the background sometimes. Yvie got forgotten, and thus didn’t get scolded for not doing her homework yet. She’s watching Norah anyways, right?
Yvie: Aww, come on! I totally told you to jump there...! *bangs controller*
Ami: How do they not hear her raging...?
And because I’m a curious creeper, we watch Code Teddy.
*romp romp romp romp*
While the other kids were off to bed, Helena decided she wanted to write her delusions in her chronicles before they slipped through her brain fingers.
Veronica and Justin came out after their fun and what more would a child want than to hug her mother? Veronica notices something though...
Veronica: Wait...? Why is she still awake? It’s midnight.
Veronica: Helena, I love you dear, but you need to go to bed. You have school in the morning.
Helena: Its ok, mom, I was just headed to bed.
Seems Yvie broke the TV with her distraught gaming...
Veronica: These kids... They need to be gentler on the electronics.
Ami: At least she didn’t throw the controller at the TV...
Veronica: What? She was playing games and didn’t invite me?
Ami: *cough cough*I think there was a reason...
Justin spends much of his time these days working on mastering his logic, which you can see here… He doesn’t even take time to put his book down when he swaps it for chess; he knows he’ll be reading it in between plays - with himself.
And the morning brings sibling loves~! Helena wanted to hug her older sister!
Alana: So, you don’t hate me now, right?
Yvie: What? I never hated you from the start; your other half, yes, but not you.
Alana: Isn’t that saying she still hates part of me...?
She decides to pay it no mind and fills her time before school playing with blocks.
Alana: So, do you really think mom and dad are going to have another baby? I mean that’s what they were talking about last night.
Helena: So that is what Code Teddy meant.
Helena: Wait... Is it even possible for them to have more? I mean they’re like old!
Alana: I have no idea...
Another picture of Norah just because!
And look who is still forgotten by Grim... Veronica managed to get caught in the ghost glitch like her two eldest did.
See: Terrance Yvie
Veronica: Hmpf! I would never neglect my duties like that!
Pop!
Veronica: But family comes first!
Ami: Pfft! I love that fashion sense, V.
And look who decides to age up next to the trash can...
Ami: Yvie, this may be why no one realizes you’re there... Because you choose to be around no one when stuff like this happens... *facepalm*
Yvie: Wait, I’m really going to grow up out here by the trashcan...?
Ami: Yep, sorry dear...
Teen Yvie~! She picks up on her parent’s work ethic and rolls ambitious... Or maybe it’s because she thinks that’s the only way she’ll get noticed... Anyways, she got a slightly different mix of genes from her parents than Terrance, meaning they’re similar but I think she takes after her dad a tad more. And is it me, or did she get skinnier?
Veronica: Honey, I have an announcement! I’m pregna- Wait, is that our daughter over there?!
Yvie: *yawn* Sleepy...
Justin: Sunshine? Are we having another baby?! *awestruck*
Terrance seems to be rather good at cooking. He manages to cook a few meals in between school, work, and homework autonomously for the family, which I find crazy. The guy is a natural do-good family man.
Justin is fabulous at educating the kids; it’s how he spends most of his spare time not skilling/sexing his wife.

Terrance: Hey, dad... How am I supposed to find myself a nice girl? I mean I’m not interested in any of the girls at school and work takes up the rest of my time, so how should I go about finding one?
Justin: Son, it all comes down to priorities. You have to choose what’s more important at the time.
Norah: Potty?
Helena: Don’t even look at me like that, go to mom if you want your potty chair emptied.
Terrance: Hey, boss? I’m gonna have to give my notice of leave. Yeah, it’s just too much with school and family.
Ami: Wow, that didn’t take long to decide.
The twins decided to try their hand running a bake sale… Helena did the cooking and Alana would be sell the goods.
It would’ve worked well, except Helena only baked one batch and decided she’d rather play games with her mom.
Veronica: So, how’s your book coming along?
Helena: Almost done with it actually. Mocksy's Tipsy Tumbles is the last one, but I'm waiting for more inspiration. AND got ya! I win!
Yvie: Alright, Norah, play this... maa-MAAA-ma-maa-MAA! It's the song I made for mommy.
Legacy Hair Man: How much is that one?
Helena: 9 Simoleons, sir.
LHM: 9?! Isn’t that a bit high?
Helena: Well, sir, they’re homemade from scratch and right out of the oven so they’re worth every simoleon.
LHM: How much is that cupcake dear?
Helena: It’s still 9 Simoleons sir… Don’t think I won’t recognize you just because you dyed your hair white…
Ami: I think that really is a different man, Helena… Maybe the other guy’s father?
Helena: Huh? Who was that?
Helena: How about you sir? Would you like a cupcake? They’re only 8 Simoleons!
Old Man: Hmm... It does look tasty...
You’d think with all the people standing around they’d get someone to buy the cupcake, right? Nope. Apparently the bridge is so fascinating, townies come from all over just to stand and stare at it for fun.
And look who ended up eating that cupcake!
Terrance wanted to go hunting searching for potential spouses, so I sent him to the park. He immediately stopped and stared in awe of this lady. Her name is Starla.
Terrance: Wow... She’s stunningly beautiful...!
Ami: I know even with that hideous legacy hair on. You should go try to talk to her. ;)
The award ceremony begins...
Ami: WTF Mayor! Why are you making a clearly pregnant woman kneel? Do you know how hard it is for women to get up from that?!
Veronica: Hush Ami! Yes, my back aches, but it’s a crucial part of the ceremony and you’re embarrassing me.
It’s a pretty good showing from the townsfolk, if I must say. Why Veronica is thinking of wedding bells, I don’t know, but Terrance seems to be smitten by Starla. Love at first sight, yes?
Terrance: Was your father a thief? 'Cause someone stole the stars from the sky and put them in your eyes.
Ami: Oh, smooth. A little cheesy but hey, it works!
Maybe a little too much... This should’ve been a warning for me because that smile gives me chills now... It’s not as innocent as it seems, I swear!
And this is when I realized she was older than him; either that or she’s a giant.
Gothic Pippy Longstockings back there is so happy it worries me; she was even throwing confetti a little while ago.
Terrance: How about we hold hands while I walk you home?
Starla: Look, I don’t mean to be rude, but I’m not taking a high schooler home with me.
Terrance: But...
Terrance: I just wanted to hold her hand...
Back at home...
Helena: Geez, will someone get the crying baby...? I mean seriously.
Veronica: Ohh, whats wrong sweetie? Don’t be sad, mommy’s here!
Justin: Where’d she go...? She was just here a moment ago.
Ami: Over here Justin! V’s got her.
Ami: Yvie... for someone who hates the outdoors you sure to draw it a lot.
Yvie: Well, it’s not like I have any inspiration to draw anything else.
Ami: Oh, is that why they’ve all turned out half par?
Terrance gets home, rather stinky, I must say, and excited.
Terrance: OMG, I can’t believe it...! I wonder if she’ll be as good a wife as my mom one day. That’d be awesome.
Ami: Aren’t you taking things a bit fast? I mean you just met her, Terr.
Terrance: Oh, I know! I’ll invite her over to the house next time so they can meet!
Terrance: Yeah, I like that idea.
See how amazing these kids are.... All of them autonomously clean (except Yvie).
Helena: Is she still crying...? Great holy Bejeebus...
Terrance: I wanna take a bath... So shoo, please.
Helena: Alright, but you’re in charge of cleaning the toilet because I’m not coming back to do it.
Justin: Ahh man... Time for bed...
Ami: Glad Norah got to go beddy-bye. Poor bb was getting cranky.
Yvie was hungry so I had her prepare her favorite meal, Mac n’ Cheese!
Alana: Hey, sis... I was wondering how long it’d take for you to finish making dinner… It’s almost my bedtime and I’m awfully hungry.
Yvie: I’m only just starting it, so it’ll probably take a good deal. It’s my first time making it and all...
She finished it eventually, and as you can see it didn’t come out that nicely...
Veronica: I wasn’t expecting you to be eating at home. I figured you’d want to spend some time with that pretty young lady you were with earlier.
Terrance: *choke cough* Wait you saw that?!
Veronica: Of course I did. You had your eyes on her during the whole procession.
Yvie: Yay, Mac n’ Cheese!
Ami: Yvie, don’t get too excited... You burnt it so it probably won’t taste much like it.
Terrance: You know, Yvie... If you got out and stopped painting all the time you might find yourself a nice boy, too.
Yvie: *choke cough cough*
Terrance: Aren’t you going to help me clean up?
Yvie: Yeah, not happening. Goodnight!
Terrance: Aww man... This sucks.
I had to include this just because Justin’s face is so cute! He looks like he’s trying to blow out a match in his dream~!
Next time we get to see lots and lots of birthdays, some more creepers an glitches, and the younger siblings get to shine more as they age up. We may even get to see more BAMFing firefighting from Veronica and Justin. Oh, and I love comments so let me know what you guys think!
