Penner Legacy 5:2
LAST TIME: Troy and Jacques had a daughter, Georgia, followed by triplet boys, Vincent, Claude, and Jackson. And that's about it, really.
HEIR POLL at the end of the update! Your vote is appreciated!
Leo wakes up "on the wrong side of the bed" pretty often, and always wants to skip school on those days, so I let him. Unfortunately, he always gets caught by his mom.
But I guess Jacques is trying to be the good guy, because he always lets the kids off the hook for skipping school or sneaking out. A+ parenting!
When Little Miss Rebellious skips school, she spends the day catching butterflies. She's badass like that.
She's also really good at playing the guitar, despite never having touched one before. I guess she really is a virtuoso!
Jackson rolled a wish to write a novel about five minutes after he was out of diapers. And he finished it about three days later. What a prodigy.
Both Vincent and Claude are closet neat freaks, constantly rolling wishes to wash dishes and clean toilets. No complaints here!
Maid: Man, you guys have the best food!
Jacques: Thanks, I guess, but don't you think you should be, you know, cleaning?
Maid: Oh, um... wow, look at the time! My shift is over!
Jacques: But... it's only noon.
Maid: You can pay me in cash, kthx.
If you're wondering what Troy's been up to lately: this. She basically spends all day, every day, in her studio, plugging away at her LTW like a good little legacy heir.
Vincent loves telling ghost stories.
Probably because he's guaranteed to scare the shit out of his audience, if his audience is his pussy father.
You know, Leo, for someone who's supposed to be a highly perceptive genius, you sure can be an idiot sometimes.
Leo's prom king!
And Georgia's prom queen? That's... kind of awkward.
Good for you for doing your homework, Vincent, but do you have to do it beside the toilet?
Welcome to middle age!
Still sexy.
I think Troy's still sexy, too, but apparently she didn't; she started a midlife crisis pretty much the second the candles were blown out. (Why does it seem like only women have midlife crises? I'm a little offended by this.)
First, she wanted a new car. Okay, sure. What my baby wants, my baby gets.
Then she drove her new car downtown to the salon, where she wailed in self-pity for half an hour before going inside.
Stylist: Hokay, chica, firss joo need to loose dose pants. Pants are so last year, girlfrann. Joo need to show off dose legs!
I'd be really impressed if it weren't for the drag queen lipstick.
This is Georgia's boyfriend, Cooper, who she met at prom. If he looks familiar, it's because he is.
He's one of Courtney's sister's kids. Which makes him Georgia's second cousin. Mmm, incesty.
So I did the logical thing and made Georgia imply that his mother was a llama. Unfortunately it backfired and he left in a huff before I could actually break them up. Oops!
Then she met this delicious specimen, Marley Johnston, in the salon. He meets my one major requirement for this generation's spouse: red hair! Ten heir points to Georgia.
Maid: GODDDDDDD IT REEKS IN HERE. Well, looks like I'm done for the day, see ya!
I don't even know why I bother with a maid anymore, with Vincent in the house. The kid loves cleaning. I have no idea why.
Claude is kind of a loner, I guess because of his mean-spirited trait? He's usually off by himself playing video games or planting whoopie cushions all over the house.
On the other hand, Vincent and Jackson are pretty buddy-buddy with each other. (Though I don't know why they can't play catch in their own backyard, they do have one.)
Jackson is the first of the triplets to roll a LTW-he wants to be a journalist when he grows up!
Speaking of growing up...
Vincent looks an awful lot like his dad, doesn't he? He's now a great kisser. I wouldn't mind testing that theory out myself.
Claude got a good mix of his parents' genes: Troy's eyes, Jacques's nose and mouth. He's now a kleptomaniac.
Jackson also got a good mix: Jacques's eyes, Troy's nose, and Jacques's mouth. He rolled technophobe, which clearly fits with his desire to be a broadcast journalist.
And last but not least, Leo becomes a young adult!
LEO PENNER
Traits: Genius, hates the outdoors, hot-headed, perceptive, workaholic
LTW: Become Astronaut
Since he's pretty much an exact duplicate of his grandfather and mother (well, and since he's pretty boring), I made the executive decision to eliminate Leo from the heir pool and kick him out of the legacy abode. Goodbye, Leo! Have fun on Spare Street!
After I indulged Vincent's want to learn the handiness skill, he started rolling wants left, right, and center to fix anything that was broken and to upgrade everything that wasn't. Between being the resident maid and the resident handyman, he's awesome to have around the house.
Georgia: Hello, is this Cooper Penner? Yes, I'm calling from Twinbrook Electric. Is your refridgerator running? ...WELL THEN YOU BETTER GO CATCH IT!
She loves pranking people, the little brat.
I love my hood's townies so much.
Vincent now does his homework in the three feet of space between the house and the fence. At least he's not doing it in the bathroom anymore.
Jacques: You skipped school again? You're grounded, Vincent!
Vincent: Hey wait, Georgia skipped, too! Aren't you going to ground her?
Jacques: Nope. She's my favorite.
Georgia: Nyah nyah.
Naturally, Vincent snuck out to join Georgia downtown. He was in a pretty bad mood by that point, though.
Look who they bumped into at the gym-Georgia's cousin-boyfriend, Cooper, who's grown up since the last time we saw him. Mmm, statutory incest.
Georgia: Look, Cooper, there are now two ways our relationship is illegal. Plus, I can't date someone with glitchy hair. Can we just be friends?
Cooper: I has a sad.
Back at home, another relationship comes to an end: Jackson and Claude's, after Jackson, the friendly brother, rolled a want to insult Claude for being mean-spirited. Yeah.
That night, Vincent's mood swing continued, and he egged the neighbor's house. With two people watching. Vincent's not very smart.
He ended up getting busted by the cops. Who drove him home, even though he lived right next door. The cops aren't very smart, either.
Meanwhile, Claude's sneaking up on people and scaring them.
The next day, Jackson wanted to skip school and pull five pranks.
This generation is just full of troublemakers! I don't even know why they were arrested this time!
Vincent snuck out to go to school the next morning. I didn't think being grounded meant he couldn't go to school, but apparently it did, because Troy rushed out to chastise him, causing him to miss the bus. I don't know, that doesn't seem like punishment to me.
YES YES YES!
Eh, close enough. Maybe that's what a TARDIS looks like in its original state? That's what I'm going to tell myself, anyway.
What is it, Troy? Daleks? Cybermen? Sontarans? THE MASTER?
Jackson: Should we help her?
Claude: We'd have to stop jumping.
Jackson: Eh, forget it.
Since Georgia's a party animal, I had to throw her a party for her birthday. A real party! With actual guests! Imagine that!
Even Aunt Michael came!
BUT SHE'S NOT GOING TO ENJOY HERSELF.
Georgia's betrothed was the only one pointing and laughing at her instead of cheering. Jerk.
Georgia: I wish that Marley and I will have lots of redheaded babies!
Marley: Wait, what?
GEORGIA PENNER
Traits: Loves the outdoors, party animal, rebellious, vegetarian, virtuoso
LTW: Become Rock Star
First thing Georgia does as a young adult? Break shit. Oh, this family.
Well, that's an... interesting... take on a graduation cap.
I don't know why the pop-up is only half visible, but anyway, Troy completed her LTW! She's the first to do it before becoming an elder! Good job, Troy!
Vincent is no longer grounded, but he's still sneaking everywhere. It was amusing at first, but got really annoying when I sent him downtown and he took three hours to sneakywalk there instead of taking a cab.
Claude: Where are you sneaking off too?
Vincent: The bathroom. Shhhhhh, don't tell anyone!
Claude: YOU'RE A LOOOOOOOOOOOSER!
Jackson: OH YEAH? WELL YOUR MOTHER LOOKS LIKE A LLAMA!
imaginepageant: *facepalm*
I guess I can see why they don't get along. Besides one being mean-spirited and the other friendly, Claude's all about video games while Jackson is the intellectual one of the bunch.
Huh. Wasn't expecting that.
Georgia: Is there meat in that sandwich? There'd better not be meat in that sandwich! MEAT IS MURDER!
Marley: What if the animal was really depressed and committed suicide?
Georgia: ...You are so not getting laid now.
She'll still deign to kiss him, though.
Troy's solution to all of life's problems: blow it up.
Such grand ambitious our Jackson has.
Somehow, despite having been born within minutes of each other, each of the triplets was due to age up on different days. So Claude and Vincent got cakes so they could have their birthdays with Jackson. Jackson didn't get a cake. Sorry, Jackson.
VINCENT PENNER
Traits: Absent-minded, great kisser, neurotic, no sense of humor, over-emotional
LTW: The Tinkerer
CLAUDE PENNER
Traits: Grumpy, kleptomaniac, mean-spirited, mooch, neurotic
LTW: Gold Digger
JACKSON PENNER
Traits: Flirty, friendly, slob, technophone, unlucky
LTW: Star News Anchor
