The Potts Legacy 1.9
{ 1.0 | 1.1 | 1.2 | 1.3 | 1.4 | 1.5 | 1.6 | 1.7 | 1.8 }
Chun Li: Oh my God! My eyes feel different!
That may have something to do with my getting new default replacements (thank you, aezsims!).
Anyway, on to the update!
Proving once and for all that she is definitely Chun-Li's daughter, Juliette takes up her mother's favourite pasttime, with a gusto.
Elsewhere, knowing adulthood is days away, Vlad makes a desperate attempt to win heirship through his autonomous cleaning.
But while Nikolai is quick to admire his efforts ("Oh, Nikolai, thtop!"), I'm afraid the running for heir is still between Isobel and Nikolai only.
Having grown lax with the knowledge that she's a shoe-in, Isobel has...let herself go a little.
Isobel: *BRAAAAAAAP*
Isobel: Hoo, wow, mom, did you hear that? I sounded like a velociraptor!
Isobel: *OM NOM NOM*
Well, at least we have proof she chews her food...
Because I know you guys were missing these two being utterly sickening with each other.
Hooba noobie to you, too. -.- I hate finger-gunners.
Oh, look, magic! Oh, hey, do you think maybe that's why Emily is green? Maybe she's, like, a witch or something! >.>
Nikolai: So, uh, I kind of think, uh your eyes are pretty. *evil templed fingers for some reason* :D
Nikolai: Oooh you think mine are, too? Goody!
PAEL.
Vlad: Anyway, I'm older, so I should get to be heir!
Isobel: In your dreams, you short-nosed cocksucker!
Vlad: Leave my relationship out of this!
Isobel: Oh, seriously? Ew! I was just calling you names!
Meanwhile...
Juliette: Ahhhh, *stretch* what a wonderful feeling! I'm ready to face the day! I love life!
Juliette: Oh, god, I'm starving, are these done yet? THEY ARE!
Whoa, damn, girl, don't you need like a potholder or something? Juliette is badass.
Emily doesn't need no steenking job anymore. And I'm not going to mind having a controllable around more often, now.
This is exactly how I intend to celebrate my retirement, too.
I suppose if you can't be heir, you might as well play on the playground I bought you guys while you still can!
Juliette makes an excellent bid for being allowed to stay in the house after the torch is passed by getting the groceries Emily ordered.
Chun Li: What are you doing?
Isobel: Dancing!
Chun Li: It doesn't look like smustling.
Isobel: That's because I'm not smustling. I'm dancing.
Chun Li: I don't get it.
Chun Li: Okay, I think I've got it. Am I doing it?
Chun Li: I think I'm doing it! I think I'm dancing!
Chun Li: Oh, I don't think I like dancing anymore!
Isobel: :D
Bamf.
Chun Li promptly became the cutest elder to ever cute.
Toddler spam is out, elder spam is in!
Alas, not even the adorable fluffy-headed adorability of elder Chun Li can detract from how uncomfortable that guy makes me.
Awww, bonding!
Hey, you know who I cooked dinner for? HINT: IT'S NOT YOU TWO. GTFO MAH SPAGHETTAH.
Nikolai: Ew, you smell like stolen spaghetti and dead Azkaban prisoner.
Trix Black: *minus minus*
Nikolai: That bitch.
NOW FOR SOME HOT SHOWER SPAM, GUISE:
Fapworthy, amirite?
So...uh...don't turn her into a witch? Just an idea.
YES, JULIETTE, I LOVE YOU, OKAY? But you can't be heir! You are a Chun Li clone.
No witty caption for this one. I was so blown away by these guys having a peaceful family meal that I couldn't even think of anything.
Emily: Yes...all is going according to plan...
Emily: I will be sure to place my heir on the throne!
Um. Yeah. They're all yours, Emily.
What's with all the admiring going on in this family?
This isn't the spam you're looking for.
:( I love this animation.
Emily seems a little surprised that her son actually loves her.
To cope with her emotional stoicism being shaken, she FINALLY USES THE GODDAMN SAUNA THAT I GOT HER LIKE 23463782 UPDATES AGO.
Eventually she returns to the only person she knows how to receive affection from.
Of course, when I say "affection..."
Second half of that stupid chance card. I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL KILL THAT TEACHER IF I EVER MEET THEM.
Can't you ever come by with non-nefarious purposes, Q? Maybe someone wants to meet you! :(
Old lesbians...still hot, or kinda gross?
It was a day before Isobel's birthday, and it was time to use her action for teenhood. Since she rolled romance, I decided to get her a boyfrain.
And she got Vlad's. >.>
I even cheated to double-check. Yeah.
UH.
Matteus: *kissies*
Isobel: Oooh look hearts!
Matteus: The night sky is more beautiful, now...
Isobel: Oooh look green things!
It becomes apparent that Vlad isn't too concerned about his lover's forays into others' arms.
I don't know who you are, townie girl, but I'd get off that playground equipment, stat!
Later that night, Juliette ~dances to the beat of a different drum~ by being the only non-smustling one.
Nikolai: Mom, you're my shooting star!
wat.
UH HUH YEAH OKAY, HEY KETTLE, THIS IS POT. WE HAVEN'T SPOKEN IN A WHILE. -.-
Hey Vlad, if you're done...yanno, shaving your legs...maybe you want to go to school?
He did manage to make it. I bet he's like that girl and school that everyone wants to be; her hair is perfect and she gives herself pedicures every morning and still makes it to class on time. Bitch.
Chun Li: Gonna go shoot them commies now! 8)
That doesn't look like financial consulting...It looks like AIM.
x_AFoolAndHisMoney_x: help me i wnat money wat i do.
GreenSkinBlackHeart24: Well, I hear investing in my retirement fund is lucrative this time of year.
x_AFoolAndHisMoney_x: oh yah, how i invested life savings?
GreenSkinBlackHeart24: Well, here's my paypal. You just give me $5000, and then I can liquidate my Nigerian client's assets and transfer them to you.
x_AFoolAndHisMoney_x: ok thx lol
x_AFoolAndHisMoney_x: i did it
x_AFoolAndHisMoney_x: now wat
GreenSkinBlackHeart24: Now, as an added bonus, there happens to be a bridge in Sim Fransisco that's for sale. The revenue from taxes could make you rich!
x_AFoolAndHisMoney_x: o ok kewl
I gotta get me that job.
Incredibly tl;dr chance cards are incredibly tl;dr. She lost.
Remember the fierce smustling child? Her name is April Alapati. This is her.
Operation Prepare for Gen 2 is in motion.
Emily: Come in! Have cookies! Meet my eligible son! But ignore the ugly one, he won't do you any good.
April: Hey, cool ears.
Nikolai: Thanks, cool hair.
April: Cool.
Nikolai: Cool.
It's love.
Emily: I think you should marry interact with Nikolai some more!
April: Wow, you think so, Mrs P? Sure!
Emily: Heeheehee...
Dude, Emily, you don't have to cackle evilly as you try to arrange a marriage. That's my job.
Nikolai: So, like, your eyebrow is pretty awesome.
April: Thanks! But it's not as awesome as you~! <3
Nikolai: A girl likes me! *score motion*
I admit I was rather hoping he would break up with Matteus for his infidel ways. But he didn't.
Belle: *watches your every move*
Just in case I pick Isobel for heir, April gets her foot in the door there, too. :P
Nikolai: Do...you want me to push you?
April: No, just hug me! I'm going home now. But I'll see you later.
Me: *SQUEES*
Nikolai: Who's a sexy dude? I am!
Nikolai: She hugged me! Did you see? I think she likes me!
Who wouldn't?
But, alas, it is time for a bittersweet ending:
Vlad's teenhood, and also his time in this house, is at an end. This is due in great part to his sudden goth tendencies.
He recieves a proper GoS-driven makeover...
Pulls a Buzz Killington on his younger brother...
And uses his one command to GTFO.
Goodbye, Vlad! Your subtle homosexuality will be missed.
In other parts of the house, other people were growing up simultaneously.
Not very well, I might add.
I guess for a romance sim, having only one lover, who's your brother's sloppy seconds, doesn't seem very fulfilling.
Also, Isobel wins points for being the first sim in aspirational failure in the legacy thus far!
Somehow, it doesn't look like she's composedly telling us that she's free now. >.>
Total honesty: her aspirational failure moved her pretty far forward in the heir race. :P
I mean, you guys *DO* want to see her do this for the rest of the generation, right? XD
Here she is, sans makeup, in the makeover screen. I'm not crazy about her huge eyebags, though, gotta say.
But it's okay, because pretty makeovers make everything all better! XD
Still seems a bit forlorn, though.
Isobel: Look at her. My sister. So happy. She has no idea what's in store for her.
Don Juan de Mop: Don't worry about it, baby. We got each other.
Isobel: Yeah, you're right. I'm sorry.
Mop: Hey, that's cool! Come here and give me some sugar!
Isobel: Why darling! That's so bad! Tee hee! *smooch*
So...yeah. I think Isobel is definitely sticking around, even if she's NOT heir. XD I love her so much.
Next time! I take out a ton of hacks (like warmthfixes, etc) in the hopes that things will get ~craycray~. Er. And I'm not positive I will get to a Dork post this week, yet. This weekend was super crazy with Easter and work and stuff, so I might make it, I might not. Otherwise, next week!
