Devault Legacy 3.1
Warning: Swearing and a failed attempt to write a French accent.
Previously: April Fuents from the Fuents legacy arrived at the Devault house using the time machine. Chandler invited April to stay for a week in hope of learning more about her. Bernice moved out to live with her boyfriend Skip Broke. Beatrice married Bob Newbie and he moved in. Chandler quickly found out that Curtis has also developed a crush on April. Beatrice became pregnant and gave birth to a girl named Dawn. After going on a date with both Curtis and Chandler, April chose Chandler to be her boyfriend before leaving back to her own time.
Curtis: I challenge you to a duel!
Chandler: What?
Curtis: It's what your sister says two guys do when they like the same girl.
Chandler: She watches waaaayy too many romantic movies.
Chandler: I'm not going to fight you, dude. You're my BFF, and besides, I'm a pacifist. We don't need to fight anyway. April and I are official together.
Curtis: It's news to me.
Chandler: Yeah, that's because it just happened last night before she went back home through the time machine.
Chandler: Okay, I know it sounds sketchy, but it's true. If April were here, she would back me up. You know I wouldn't lie. I want to settle this fair and square.
Curtis: Then, duel with me!
Chandler: *sigh*
Curtis: We don't have to fight. We can play a game.
Curtis: I challenge you to a game of gnubb for April's love!
Chandler: Fine. I have a feeling you won't give up until we do this your way.
Curtis: I'm persistent!
Chandler: I should have guessed it's an outdoor game.
Chandler: So, how do you play?
Curtis: First you, club the rabbit on behind the throne.
Chandler: Never mind. I'll read the instructions.
Chandler: This doesn't seem so hard.
Curtis: He's knocked down two already.
It's a close one, but Chandler wins.
Chandler: There. I won fair and square. Now, will you wait until April returns to explain things?
Curtis: I could never win against a first timer's blessing.
Chandler: Promise me you'll listen to everything she has to say.
Curtis: Sure, I promise.
Since the boys' birthday is on a weekend, Gustave throws a big party.
Very handsome. He has his aunt's (though it could be his mother's) nose and everything else belongs to the Devault.
Thomas: Ohhh, man. I can't think of a worst hair to age up into.
Because yours is so much better.
Chandler is an exact clone of his dad with the Devault hair and eyes.
Chandler: Not this hair again.
*gasp* Oh, wait. It's just a guest. Never mind.
Death: What's going on here? Having a party?
Blonde Guy: It was a great birthday party until you showed up.
Death: Well, you should know better than to invite old people to your party. The excitement can be too much for them.
Deborah (Alden's kid) aged faster than usual. That red hair and green eyes must be a dominate gene.
Anita: Happy Birthday, Curtis.
Curtis: Wow, thanks, Auntie Anita.
Dead Guy's Kid: Now, who will cook our meals?
Since it's a birthday, all of the family rolls a want to give the boys birthday presents.
As soon as the party ends, Chandler takes Curtis to the salon for a makeover.
Chandler: You don't care what you wear as long as it's pink, correct?
Curtis: Yep!
He rolls an Unlucky trait. I guess that could be the reason for his unsuccessful romantic relationship with April.
Curtis: Happy Birthday, Cus! I got you a present.
Chandler: Aww, thanks, man.
Chandler: Now, it's my turn. I think I want to do something a little different with my hair this time.
He rolls "dislikes children". Oh, poor boy. You were voted heir and like your uncle, you're going to have kids. Unlike Atticus, you aren't going to get help. You're going to have a lot of kids.
Chandler: Yes. That's the look I wanted! I'm awesome!
???: You've got talent, kid.
Chandler: I know. Thanks for noticing.
???: You got quite the attitude, too and rightly so. What's your name?
Chandler: Chandler Devault.
Kurtis: Kurtis, Kurtis Burks, but you can call me Kurt. I'm a tattoo artist and owner of this salon.
Kurtis: You could be big. I'm talking Bridgeport big not crummy little small town like this one big.
Chandler: You really think so?
Kurtis: But without experience and a good reputation, your talent means nothing to the people of Bridgeport.
Kurtis: You got to start somewhere, so I want to offer you a job as a stylist. How about it?
Chandler: Yes! Wow, thank you so much!
Kurtis: Great. Then, you'll start tomorrow. You'll report to Jenna Lynwood. She will be your supervisor and give you some brief training before you get started.
Chandler: Awesome!
I know I'm going to regret making Chandler's LTW Fashion Phenomena. I've had two stylists before and neither of them made it to the top of that career. I get tired and bored once I have styled everyone in town. Hopefully this time, it will be different because of my plans.
Beatrice's birthday arrives the same day as the boys. We have enough cake and food, so she ages up on her own. I can't believe she's already an adult. Time flies.
Bob ages up the same day.
Beatrice: Where's my birthday present?
Bob: Upstairs in our bedroom.
Anita: Happy Birthday, Chandler. I wanted to give you this during the party, but I had to go to work.
Chandler: No worries, mom. Thanks for the gift.
Anita: You dyed your hair.
Chandler: Yeah, what do you think?
Anita: You look like a my little pony doll.
Chandler: Thanks mom. Thanks.
Beatrice: It's about time you invited me to your new place.
Bernice: Skip and I bounced around a bit from place to place before we settled on this house.
Beatrice: It doesn't have much of a back yard, but at least you have a barn.
Bernice: Yeah...about that...
Beatrice: By the way, when is the wedding? I was so excited when I first heard the news. Are you going to have a big wedding or something small and private like what Bobby and I had?
Bernice: The wedding is off.
Beatrice: WHAT?
Bernice: Skip and I broke up.
Beatrice: Why? You two were so happy together. You guys were perfect for each other. He is like the only guy who understands your obsessive cleaning.
Bernice: I got a job at the police office, so I could save up enough money to buy a horse, right? One day, I'm stopping a robbery with my partner and I see that Skip is one of the robbers. Can you believe someone good like Skip becoming a criminal? Maybe, he was influenced by Mary-Kay. I don't know. Of course, I had to arrest him. It was so embarrassing arresting my fiance.
Bernice: Our relationship is on the downhill. I'm thinking about finding my own place and just going our separate ways. He's not the same guy I fell in love with.
Beatrice: You can't give up. Listen to me. Romance is difficult. Remember when you first fell in love with Skip? He was with another girl, but I told you not to give up and you didn't.
Bernice: You suggested that we beat up his girlfriend.
Beatrice: That too, but that's not what I'm getting at. Just because things are getting difficult again doesn't mean you should give up. You guys are meant to be together. I just know it!
Bernice: Alright. Maybe we can fix this.
Beatrice: Atta girl!
April returns!
Chandler: Welcome back.
April: Thanks.
Chandler: How is everything at home?
April: Good, sort of. A lot of things happened.
April: I got a little careless with my inventing, and I had to use that flower you gave me. My sisters got engaged, so I stayed until the wedding.
April: My mother passed on.
Chandler: Oh, I'm sorry.
April: We got to talk a little the night before she died. In a way, I got to say my goodbyes. Still, I worry about leaving my father. My sister and her new husband are living with him, so I know he's in good hands.
Chandler: Well with the time machine, you can go back and see them any time.
April: Yeah, you're right.
Chandler: Since you're here, you might want to tell Curtis that we are seeing each other. I told him, but I figure you would want to tell him in your own way.
April: Oh, right. I guess, I should have done that before I left.
Curtis: Welcome back, April!
April: Thanks. Are you busy right now?
Curtis: Nope.
April: Great. Then, we can talk for a little while.
April: I heard that Chandler told you that I'm his girlfriend now.
Curtis: Uh-huh.
April: It's true. I like him the same way he likes me. I know you like me too, but I don't think I can like you more than a friend. I'm sorry. I hope you're not angry and that we can still be friends.
Curtis: Of course, we can still be friends. I'm not angry. I understand.
April: Really?
Curtis: Chandler won at grubs fair and square. That means that you and him get to be together. If I had practiced more, then you would be marrying me instead of him.
April: Grubs? Marry?
Curtis: They are hard to throw sticks at.
Dawn's birthday arrives.
She's an interesting blend of both parents.
Beatrice: You look down. Is it because April dumped you?
Curtis: Yeah, a little.
Beatrice: Well, good thing I'm still here to give you romantic advice.
Curtis: Why are you still here?
Beatrice: Though I've never experience a break up myself, I have seen enough movies on the subject to know just how to handle it.
Beatrice: The first thing you have to do is get back into the dating scene. Normally, I'd suggest going to a bar or a nightclub to meet new people, but you're a special case. Do you know anyone you might be interested in going out with?
Curtis: No.
Beatrice: Hmm, maybe Chandler might know someone.
Beatrice: I'm going to set you on a blind date.
Curtis: If she's blind, how will she know she's on a date?
Beatrice: I'll find the perfect girl for you to fall in love with.
Bob: Hey, Chandler. I heard you got a job at the salon. Do you mind giving me a makeover? I need a new look.
Chandler: Sure, how does tomorrow at four sound?
Bob: Perfect. Thanks a lot.
Charlotte and a few other family members go to a neighbor's house party. Skip is also there.
Charlotte: I 'eard zat ze same day you and Bernice announced your engagement, you broke it off. What 'appened?
Skip: It's complicated.
Skip: The engagement was a little premature since we had just moved in together, so we ended it.
Charlotte: But, you two seemed so 'appy togezer. Don't you zink zat ending your relationship like zat was a little extreme?
Skip: Maybe, but I wanted to at least try living together to make sure we are really compatible.
Charlotte: And, are you still living togezer?
Skip: Yeah, we are.
Charlotte: Zen zere is a chance for you two to get back togezer?
Skip: Yeah, it's possible.
They never patch things up. D:
Beatrice: Now, there's no need to be nervous. The girl I found is one of your old classmates from high school. You'll know her when you see her.
Curtis: Just because we progressed in our education, doesn't mean we've encountered.
Beatrice: Just stay where you are until she arrives. I got to go. Dawn is crying again.
Curtis: But-
Beatrice: Alright. Have fun. Bu-bye.
Curtis: *sigh*
Girl: Curtis?
Juliana: It's me Juliana Wilson. We shared math and chemistry in high school together.
Curtis: I know you. You had a purple tiger the last time I saw you.
Juliana: Yeah, I went to your birthday party.
Curtis: Are you here for the blind date?
Juliana: Yeah.
Curtis: Weren't you dating Dominic Newbie?
Juliana: We were during high school, but we broke up recently.
Juliana: I couldn't stand him critizing me about my art. It's what I love to do, but he hated it. I couldn't see things working out for us.
Curtis: I like art.
Juliana: That's great!
Juliana: Do you want to go to the art gallery with me? I heard they have a new exhibit. I haven't been to the gallery in so long, and I'm dying to see it.
Curtis: I don't want to be a murder suspect.
Juliana: Dominic Newbie would never go to the art gallery with me. It's more fun when you go on an outing with other people. I didn't go at all because I didn't want to go alone.
Curtis: It's always a good time when there is more than one personalities involved.
Shortly after their visit to the art gallery, they head to the diner for some lunch.
Juliana: It was great seeing and talking with you again.
Curtis: Me too!
Juliana: Let's do this again real soon.
Chandler: If you want to keep that shirt, you're going to need different shoes and pants.
Bob: What about my hair?
Chandler: Your hair is fine, but if you want something new, I can do that for you.
Chandler: Check it out in the mirror and tell me what you think.
Bob: It's great! You're really good at this, Chandler.
Chandler: Of course, I am.
April gets a career in inventing. Since the Devault house doesn't have a place for an invention table, she uses the table at the firehouse.
Which is great because it's located right next to the salon.
Chandler: Sorry, I had to skip our lunch date. The salon was busy today.
April: It's okay. Let's make it a dinner date.
Chandler takes April to the bistro for a nice dinner.
April: How was work? Do you like it?
Chandler: I love it. The owner is great and my boss is nice.
Chandler: I've gotten so many compliments on my outfit choices that my boss suggested that I move to Twinbrook. She says that it's the next step if I want to become a fashion phenomena.
Chandler: I could work alongside Doug Downey who has been in the industry for years. My boss said that she could give me a recommendation to secure a job there.
April: There are a lot of inventors that live in Twinbrook. I'd love to meet them and get advice. I could use some advice on how not to catch myself on fire so frequently.
Chandler: So, you like the idea?
April: Yeah, I think it's great.
Chandler: April, I know we haven't discussed the idea of you moving in with me since you kind of already live with me. I thought about how to ask you if living in this time period with me will be a permanent thing or not. I want it to be. I can't stand wondering everyday if you will leave me.
Chandler: So, I figured out the exact question I want to ask you.
Chandler: April Fuents, will you marry me?
April: Yes! Yes!
April: I never plan on leaving.
Beatrice: You remembered to pay the movers, right?
Bob: Yep, everything is taken care of.
Beatrice: Good, then we will stay here the night and drive over to our new house tomorrow.
Beatrice: I'm too tired to unpack tonight, so we will save it for tomorrow.
Bob: It's probably a good idea. Dawn is a sleep and I know she will wake up the moment we load her into the car.
Beatrice: Plus, there's one thing I want to do before we leave.
Bob: You want to woohoo in your mom's bed out of spite.
Beatrice: You know me so well.
The next morning, Beatrice leaves not knowing that the woohoo with her husband will result in another baby.
Curtis: Dad is behind on tending to his vegetable garden. Good thing he has us.
Curtis: Mom! You've become transparent!
Charlotte: I'm dying, sweetie.
Curtis: Dad! Mom is turning invisible!
Atticus: What's going on? I was just about to-Charlotte! You're dying? You can't die yet!
Chandler: It's my time.
Anita: What's going on here? Why is everyone yelling?
And, Charlotte is the first to go.
Anita: Since you and April are getting married, that means you two are going to start a family soon, right?
Anita: Your father and I want grandchildren and lots of them. It won't be long before we pass on, so you two better start soon.
Chandler: What? Grandkids? I don't want to have any children.
Anita: What do you mean you don't want children? Don't you want to experience the joy of child raising?
Chandler: Not really.
Chandler: And if I recall, you spent most of my childhood watching TV with Aunt Charlotte, so I assume by "joy of child raising" you mean the joy of watching TV.
Anita: Why don't you want kids? Have you told this to April? Maybe, she wants kids.
Chandler: I just never saw children in my future. I don't really like them. No, I haven't told her. I really should.
Anita: Your Uncle doesn't like kids either, but he still had them.
Chandler: And, he did a great job of ignoring Bernice and Curtis until they were teenagers.
Chandler: Why are you asking me anyway? Why not Betty?
Anita: Betty just moved out, and I already miss Dawn.
Chandler: You could always visit them at their new house.
Anita: Yes, but then, I'd have to go outside.
Chandler: I see what you mean.
Meanwhile at the dump.
April: Alright, time to blow up the scrap pile.
Dallas: I know this isn't much of a date, but here. I got something for you.
April: 3...2...
Betty: Flowers! Oh, darling. You're so sweet.
Dallas: I should have known not to have a date at the dump.
Betty: ARGGGG!!!! CRAZY BITCH!!
Back at home.
Curtis: No, Dad! You promised we'd play chess together!
Atticus: The wedding is tomorrow. Can't you let me live for just another day?
Death: Nope.
Curtis: Please, bring my dad back.
Death: lol no.
Next Time: Marriage and Babies.
Chandler and Curtis are up for download. I'm going to try to post an update every two weeks until the heir poll. Then, things might slow down a little.
