The Frost Legacy 1.4
For those who didn't catch the Moonbeam eyebrows causing aging up disaster fiasco, I fixed it, so we're still on Gen. 1. And as per my slightly modified ISBI rules, Gen. 2 will begin either when the heir has 2 days until adulthood, or when Moonbeam dies. Whichever comes first.
In our last episode: Moonbeam rejoiced when all her children were finally in school and out of her hair, she went on quality time outings with her two eldest children and Ticky became so enthused about video games that she took to standing behind anyone playing them and telling them what to do!
... and here is the girl you voted most likely to succeed....
Nellie: "I'm heir now?! Gah!! So much pressure!"
Moonbeam: ".... Why'd you sleep in Jake's bed last night?"
Ticky: *sheepish grin* "I got lost while staring in to your beautiful eyes?"
Gaww!
Moonbeam: "Uhh... school bus is outside honking it's horn..."
Keira: "So?"
Moonbeam: "Damn it all to hell! I locked the keys in the car!"
Keira: "Gee, that's too bad, Mom. Guess I'll have to take the day off school after all..."
Moonbeam: "Young lady, you are going to school no matter how much glass I have to shatter to get you there. Car windows can be repaired much more easily than your future."
Keira: *pout*
Moonbeam is a badass mother. I'm glad she's not mine.
Jake: "What's a pretty lady like you doing in a place like this?"
Susan (by me): *blink*
Smooth, Jake. Very smooth.
Keira came home from school full of beans....
Jake: "Call the matchmaker and tell her to hang up her crystal ball - I've found my dream girl!"
Susan: *bes uncomfortable*
Heh. Jake is win.
Jake: *is win in more ways than one*
Susan + Adalita: Teens should not be this good at poker. It's unnatural.
Keira: Oh noes! I overslept and missed my favourite show.
Moonbeam: "How dare you? I do not need glasses! The pictures on those playing cards are far too small. Nobody could read them!" *rage*
Susan: "Fine. Go slowly blind. See if I care!"
Now that Nellie is heir, she seems to be taking after Moonbeam a little more every day. Though I think she probably blames her terrible childhood for her constant rage...
Moonbeam: "See? My eyes are fine. I'm reading, aren't I?"
Susan: "Oh yeah? Read me a passage..."
Moonbeam: "If you can't read it yourself, I guess it's not me that needs glasses after all."
Susan: *rolls eyes* "Fine. Tell me the title of the book you're reading."
Moonbeam: ".........."
Keira.
Nellie is evolving in to Moonbeam....
Nellie: I'll rip your heart out and forcefeed it to you! Grrr!
Keira: "Oh, hi! I just want you all to know that I didn't break this toilet. It was like that when I got here."
She speaks the truth....
Jake Frost - Lord Of The Smustle.
Jake: "I got an A+! I passed!"
I'm relatively sure it's his first, ever. Keira's good grades, however, are slipping.
Adalita: "Is it just me, or is Jake Frost growing up to be one fine hunk of man meat?"
He's not for you!
Moonbeam: "Okay, I admit it. I did need glasses. But on the plus side, all those dizzy headaches are totally gone. And I can read recipes properly now. Just look at this blueberry cheesecake!"
And just look at you being the cutest darn elder I ever saw! *pinches cheeks!*
Keira: "So are you gonna deal those cards or just play with them?"
Kiki (by me): "Are you sure you know how to play....?"
Keira: ".... I'm sure I'll catch on...." *shifty eyes*
Keira: "And I'll take those chips from you now. Are you sure you know how to play....?"
Kiki: "Damnit, I've been hustled..."
Moonbeam: *fondles own chip pile* "Never play poker with a Frost. It's hazardous to your bank balance."
Kiki: "Bahahaha! You should see your face!"
Keira: She electrocuted me! Did you see that? The nerve!
Nellie eats more spoiled food than any other Frost. Maybe she thinks it tastes better when it's ripe with salmonella.
Nellie: "It does taste better. Stop judging me!"
Ticky: "Babe, am I putting on too much weight?"
Moonbeam: "Aww, don't be silly. You're as trim and delicious as the day I first saw you."
Now that she's in her teens, Nellie often wanders outside to glare at Tyrell's grave.
Nellie: The moment Mom dies, I'm carting you off to the local cemetery. It's obscene burying some random guy in your backyard....
Poor Ticky (and Moonbeam, for that matter). The kids sleeping in their bed has long stopped being cute and alone time seems to be getting rare what with at least one child always in their bed.
Still, nothing works off sexual frustration like the continuous mopping of a floor whilst the bathtub leaks water all over the area you just mopped. Sometimes being caught in an endless loop is soothing....
Jake: "Mom, can't you even look up from writing in your stupid blog long enough to congratulate me on my good grades? You're so selfish!"
Moonbeam: "I expect nothing less than good grades as thanks for raising you, Jake..."
Now that Moonbeam has finally attained the level of coldest, most calculating bitch in Legacyville maxed logic, Ticky will actually play chess with her. Turns out Ticky's pretty darn logical herself. They play for hours!
Jake.
Nellie: *is slowly but surely going insane*
Keira: "Ugh! How can you eat this crap?"
Nellie: "What? It tastes fine..."
Moonbeam still loves her gaming blog....
... some other things she doesn't love so much....
Moonbeam: "Flowers? Birds singing? How dare it be spring without my permission!?"
Moonbeam: I wonder what the Fennells are up to....?
Moonbeam: Oh my god. Straight people sex is wrong. I think I threw up in my mouth a little.
Don't look at me like that. You rolled the want to spy on them!
Moonbeam: Cannot unsee....
Incidentally, Bijou Fennell came over to shove Moonbeam. Not a good idea for Bijou, but surprisingly, though Moonbeam now hates her, she has no wish to see her dead. Could it be that Moonbeam is mellowing in her old age?
Moonbeam: Heh. Jake is still a sucker!
Moonbeam: "I warn you, missy, I play a mean game of pool..."
Moonbeam: "What? How could I miss that shot? Am I losing my touch?"
Millicent: *politely looks everywhere but at Moonbeam's defeat*
Still, nothing cheers one up after being beaten at pool like leading the smustle session at The Little Green Diner. Taina Ugries by rhiannon_alexis agrees! Llama Fauna by dorkasaur_sims would rather just watch the fun from afar...
Guess what Gallagher Fennell just did in his pants....
Hells yes! Moonbeam took the job, partly because she hoped that her working in the legal field might help Nellie to get a job in same, and partly because she'd never in her life had a job. It's time to build a modest nest egg for Nellie before it's too late!
Tyler: Is it just me, or is this old lady really smokin' hot? *considers groping*
Moonbeam: "You touch me and the only way you'll only ever be checking women out again is from your position as newest ghost buried in my backyard. I've done it before. Don't make me do it again."
Tyler: "..... you've done it before?..."
Arden: "Now that's what I call a woman of class!"
Moonbeam: "Am I giving off straight vibes tonight or something?"
Meanwhile, the younger Frost women are enjoying doing poor Lead out of her hard earned.... at least she's a gracious loser!
And Ticky joined Moonbeam as a member of the elderly! Poor thing didn't have many options for clothing (though neither did Moonbeam) but she's still adorable.
Note: Must create or download more elder clothing!
Jake: "Just because Nellie's heir now, she thinks her milkshake is the best in town!"
Nellie: *gasp!* "I do not! Stop it!"
Nellie takes after Ticky in the rock, paper, scissors department...
Old age has not mellowed the love between these two. Even though they rarely get to sleep in the same bed anymore, these two still seek each other out.
Ketla (by me): *sigh* I wonder if I'll ever find a nice girl to love....
Ketla: "Hey, I saw the way you kicked over your own trashcan! That was so badass! What's your sign?"
Keira: "I'm straight."
Ketla: "Awww, but surely a pretty young thing like you doesn't want to limit her options like that...?"
Keira: "Straight."
Ticky: *throws Moonbeam some bedroom eyes*
Moonbeam: *throws 'em right back at her!*
What's wrong, sweetheart?
Ticky: "It's Jake's birthday and we're all going to The Little Green Diner to celebrate...."
Sounds good so far!
Ticky: ".... but Keira doesn't want to come! She says she'd rather go to bed early!"
Too bad for her, I say....
.... umm... I think you guys need to meet some non sibling teens. Badly.
Nellie: "Pssst! Can you keep a secret?"
Maybe...
Nellie: "I totally just stole this meal right from under somebody's nose. Shhh..."
Jake: "That feels so good, sis."
Nellie: "I love you, J- .... hold the phone! Who is that lovely creature sitting all by herself?"
Nellie: "I'm psychic, you know..."
Llama: "Oh yeah?"
Nellie: "Yup. For example, I know your mother must have been a thief, because she stole the stars and put them in your eyes...."
Smooth!
Llama: "You're so gorgeous! I can't believe you're single."
Nellie: "Well, I just hadn't met the right girl yet, you know....."
Something tells me these two might have a future (when Nellie grows up).... They got along right away!
The night out took a lot out of Ticky though....
Jake: *shifty eyes* I hope nobody saw me steal this....
I give you adult Jake! This boy is gonna turn heads!
It was bound to happen sooner or later....
Nellie: "It must have been that food at the diner. I knew it didn't taste right!"
Jake moved out right away to join the ranks of Legacyville townies. I'll miss you, cutie!
Ticky: My poor babies! Jake out in the big bad world where I can't help him, Nellie with food poisoning.... *worry*
Moonbeam: "You are so beautiful tooo meeeee!"
Ticky: *blush* "Awwww....."
Nellie offers a prayer to the bathroom gods that her food poisoning may be swiftly mended. It works.
Moonbeam: "Stop pouting. It's a natural part of getting old, baby. It could have been either of us."
Ticky: Yeah, except it's always me, isn't it?
Keira: "I can't believe you all voted for Nellie. I can look fierce too, you know..."
Yeah, but you look like you're trying too hard. She just does it naturally.
KEIRA! This was Ghost Tyrell's doing, though I missed his actual scare.
Ticky: "Noooooo! Take me! I'm old!"
Moonbeam: *bows* "I challenge you to a dual for the life of my daughter..."
Grim: "Uh-huh. Fine. Hey, Ticky! How's it going, babe? I'll be back for you later...."
Moonbeam: "Hah! Beat you. Easy as pie. Wake her up and GTFO!"
Grim: "Awww, man!"
