Bellamorte Legacy: 1.0
First off:
So this isn't really a 'legacy' in that I'm actually following the official rules. But I -am- trying not to cheat, to let my sims behave mostly autonomously, and to keep their wants/ltw's/etc filled. I'll be picking heirs, and breeding generations. We'll see how far I get.
(Pardon any pixelation, and the sort of small size, as I had to try and compress these down so they wouldn't kill slower connections.)
(120+ pics, Occasional swearing, and lame comments under the cut.)
So this is Spirit Bellamorte, the founder of this legacy. She's a Knowledge sim.
I built spirit a ridiculously tiny house, mainly to keep the game running smoothly as long as possible. It's cute though, I think. Moving along...
Spirit's LTW is to get to the top of the Science career track (yay for sane Knowledge sim LTW's! Seriously.) so I get her ass to the computer and get her a job.
Uh...Ouch.
Next order of business: gain cooking skill point so as not to burn the freaking house down.
This just looks sinister, somehow. I swear the gypsy is about to pull two pistols out of her dress any second.
Not bad for a welcoming party, don't you think?
Apparently Spirit can walk through doors now. At least to shake hands...
But then she uses the door properly to greet everyone else.
Well, at least we're all in agreeance here... *goes to fiddle with the ACR's gender preferences...*
This is not the first shy, sweet knowledge sim I've had that has a problem with ventrilo-farting unsuspecting hotties...
So after that unpleasantness, they all (minus the jailbait) head in to the house. Spirit and Thera (who's last name is Marama, which makes my brain now call her "Thera-mara-ma".) immediately seem to be getting along alright...
And then this. Damnit, quit failing at being social!
Thera and Fenton hang out while Spirit slaves over some sandwiches.
*giggle* Burps are funny! tee Hee!
Spirit, you'd better do something to make me like you, and soon.
How to make friends, Step 104: Completely ignore your guests to play on the computer!
*shifty eyes*
Damn you, Spirit, being so infuriatingly adorable!
I just think she looks pretty here. That is all.
Ah, nothing like a nice, relaxing bath after all your guests have left...
Uh...Right. Apparently Fenton's not big on hints. He stuck around and ate about 4 sandwiches. Not even kidding. Tact, darling. You don't has it.
So, in desperation, before the ACR takes matters in to it's own hands and I have to watch her and Fenton make out, I take her to Club Z the next day, for to find a vic-...husband.
Hello, Hot stuff! And thank you to both Aikea Guinea and the Wardrobe Wrangler, for making my townies 60% less fashionably challenged!
Oh yeah, that's a good idea, just keep doing that.
Riiight.
Apparently Johnny Bravo over there finds the barista repulsive. He's really one to talk.
Spirit:"Wanna come home with me and play the Inmate and the Prison Guard?"
Note the random stalker in the background, all a-swoon over Spirit.
Um...No.
I didn't even know they did this! It's so cute.
Random Stalker Guy turns out to be a HELL of a dancer. I mean, really, really good.
No fucking clue what's going on here.
Okay. So Blond Ponytail goes traipsing on by, and suddenly the guy with black hair goes running outside. I assume he's in motive failure and running home, but nope, he apparently SAW PONYTAIL DUDE THROUGH THE EFFIN' WALL, and felt compelled to RUN outside and talk to him.
About airplanes.
And then Spirit goes running outside...
And this other guy...
Well, I guess I can see what all the fuss is about...
Oh jesus. Not again.
Apparently the bartenders found this amusing enough to leave their stations for. The one in the middle there was all upset, while the other two clapped and cheered.
Ah, hello there, ACR. How nice of you to finally join us.
Hmm...Not bad, but I'm not thrilled with his nose. Keep looking, Spirit.
Um, that's not what I had in mind.
He makes out with Spirit, then is swooning over another chick. Classy.
Oooh, they wore the same outfit! How embarrassing!
Hmm...
Spirit like!
And it's mutual!
Awww...
Denied! What the hell??
Who could resist that? Seriously!
Aww...You'll pay for this, whatever the hell your name is.
And then everyone was once more compelled to run outside and harass some random townie...
Back home, Spirit attempts to wash the rejection off with a nice hot bath...
Oh look, it's Random Stalker Guy!
...And this begins Spirit's love affair...with herself.
"Oh yeah, I hate the world too! Totally!"
She rolled a want to buy love potion, so...
Uh, what the fuck?
....
I didn't know they'd autonomously chat online! I usually have to force them to do that... But it's with Random Stalker Guy, who's name is Cole.
Spirit has the hots for Grant, AKA Blonde Guy at the bar.
...But that doesn't stop Cole! Not only was she JUST CHATTING to him, but suddenly the phone rings, and guess who??
WTF, Cole, you don't even have the hots for her.
Oookay...My first ever Booty Call! And who does she pick? Once again, she's supposed to have the hots for Grant, not Cole!
...No comment.
Could he look more excited?
Well, we all knew where this was headed.
Spirit had to leave for work then, so immediately after they got dressed, she said goodbye to him. Talk about a booty call!
Whoo! This is only the first in a succession of things Spirit totally wins at!
And this is where she fails.
So they still do the cheek kiss, even after they'd done it?
Uh oh..
Yes! Spirit is FULL of win!
Carlos Merrick, you will suffer for this...
Oh, come ON! Anyone but Cole, please...
...Crap.
She gets right to the point, at least...
Okay, so maybe he IS kinda cute...
Awww... Now I just feel sorry for the poor guy...
I'd really love to know what the hell that is even supposed to mean.
Go Spirit!
Aww... But she still doesn't even have a crush on him yet!
Oh, there we go...
Shit.
Well, I decide that since these two seem to be hell bent on screwing me over and being together, I should give Cole a makeover. I'm not even sure why that hair was in my game in the first place, but I couldn't stand it on him. This one is only mildly better, but I seem to have a nice lackage of good red hair for men in my game.
Part of my overall aversion to Cole was his lack of genetic diversity. He's got eyes only a few shades off from Spirit's, but they are kinda pretty, I guess.
Okay, screw it... You're too freakin' cute together.
Yeah, yeah... *sighs*
Whoo! Way to go, Cole!

Cole had a want to hire a maid. Despite having 9 neat points. Oh well, at least the maid's pretty to look at.
Way to go, Spirit!
Spirit's already pregnant with their first child, you just can't tell here.
Couch sex!
Pop number one!
Crap.
Cole FAILS!
And then proceeds to bawl about it for hours.
Just thought this shot was cute as HELL.
Pop #2!
Wow, she looks friggin' huge!
...But that doesn't stop Cole from gettin' some!
Fail! The bed is RIGHT THERE!
Shoo Flee!
Baby!
His name is Sky. He's got mom's skintone and hair color, but dad's eyes, as far as I can tell.
Whew! And thus concludes this chapter of the Bellamorte legacy!
