The Behr Legacy 1.0
Welcome to the first update of the Behr legacy! This is going to be a Pixel Trade, Awesimsauce, Round Robin legacy! Now, casual readers don't have to go and read all the rules if you don't feel like it, chances are it'll make enough sense without reading them
I will be advertising my updates in legacychallenge, and pixel_trade. For each generation of the legacy, I'll post a collection of links in this journal, and also to thesims2, awesimsauce and roundrobin_sims. We don't want to overdo it. This way your flist only gets spammed once a month or so. :P
I am generation blue, which means that all the people in my generation (founder and children) will be named after blue paint swatches by Behr paints. Since this is the starting generation, that's all that means! ^_^
But enough rambling! You want pictures! Excitement!
Our story opens onto this lovely little abode...a beachside hut, perfect for the warm summer weather (we're not thinking about winter yet).
And our lovely founder, Quasar Behr. Um, Quasar? What's wrong?
Quasar: grumble mumble sun is so bright grumble
Perhaps if the reflection of the sun off your own skin weren't so bright, it wouldn't be so much of an issue.
Quasar: Good point! 8D So, let's get this legacy started!
Quasar is a family sim who is VERY neat, and is also fairly serious, but nice. Her LTW is to marry off six kids...which probably is NOT going to happen, given that Awesimsauce rules dictate that you can only have two. However, since it's a round robin, we want to give people a bit more choice, and are changing it so that only the first three children born are eligible for heir. Still. That means I'd have to have SEVEN kids, because at least ONE of them won't be mine to marry off. :P
Quasar: I could use a tan.
You could use some pigment.
Quasar was born in the game of foreverred as Sato Michaels-Coleman. I thought she was utterly gorgeous, and decided to choose her for champion pick her for the founder.
Step one, seashell hunting!
Quasar: This is the best. day. of my life.
And here it is.
Quasar: Bet that Garden Club lady would love to see my starfish!
Quasar: OH GARDEN CLUB LADY. COME HERE PLEASE.
Antoinette: ...she doesn't even have a garden...
Quasar: What do you think of my starfish?
Quasar: Cuz HERE IT IS! I think it's marvellous!
Antoinette: Actually, that is a pretty nice specimen.
Quasar: I know, right?!
Quasar: I was just digging in the sand, and there it was! So I put it on my table.
Antoinette: Fascinating.
Yeah, real riveting "discovery story" there, Sar.
Eat your heart out, the sims 3.
Quasar: Look, I think there's another starfish over there!
Antoinette: Really?
Antoinette: Wait, why do I care? You're the one who likes -
Quasar: GOTCHA.
Quasar: Hahahaha, omg, you're all wet. 8D
Antoinette: WHY DID I SIGN UP FOR THIS JOB?! I DON'T EVEN LIKE PEOPLEEEEEE.
Quasar: Heehee.
Quasar: Oh, wow, look, the ground is wet. Better fix that.
More like, some visitor. Singular. HAI CAT.
Cat Brilliant: It is my birthday, and what am I doing? Welcoming legacy sims to the neighborhood. FML.
She's really proud of that starfish.
Cat: Hey...nice...uh, house. Welcome to the uh, neighborhood.
Quasar: Would you like to see my starfish?
Cat: Um. You know? That's nice and all, but I'm gonna hafta pass.
Cat: Remember, kids. If a strange lady asks to show you her starfish, say NO!
Cat: Jesus Christ, why did I sign up for this.
Quasar: WAIT, MISS CAT LADY. COME BACK. IT'S SOMETHING DIFFERENT THIS TIME!
Cat: *stomps* grumble grumble what is it this time grumble
Cat: What.
Quasar: Wanna hear how I found this starfish?
Cat: ...
Quasar: 8D ...
Cat: Okay. Walk away slowly. She's more afraid of you than you are of her...
Quasar: She's leaving. Why doesn't she like my starfish?
Quasar: And what is the meaning of life? If not starfish, then what?
Cat: NO! I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR STUPID STARFISH.
Well, can't say she's not persistent.
Quasar: You know, I have other interests, too. I like cats.
Cat: OMG SERIOUSLY I LOVE CATS I HAVE SEVEN.
Cat: And they run around all the time and they're like ~"MEOW"~!
Quasar: Wow, that's amazing!
As intriguing as the conversation was, it was time for Quasar to hunt down a man.
Welcome to La Parc De Fleurs (east), a community lot from MTS that I'm quite fond of.
And now, for the townies therein!
The gorgeous Areli Starling! simkittensims
Abby Creelman! steezie_k
Teyla Michaels! simppl_life
Beatrix Potter Lackadaisy. brilliantcat
Sexy Sexy Nett Kohler-Wielle. bondchick_nett (sorry, I was gonna do yellow shorts and a t-shirt, but I couldn't find any obnoxious enough :P)
And, cue romantic music, Ares Randolph! rikkulidea
Oh, I have designs on YOU, boy.
Nett's Ass: hay guise
She likes him! It's a sign!
Ares: It's a sign.
This is Felyshilla Picselle-Trede (bondchick_nett). See what I did there?
After about an hour of complaining that they couldn't reach each other due to difficult terrain, the two finally meet.
Then they head inside, where my naming mod continues to prove itself the most awesome ever.
Ares: This whole flag thing is stupid anyway!
Quasar: ...Flag?
Ares: WHAT DO YOU MEAN "FLAG"? YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK A FLAG IS?!
Quasar: OKAY, WHOA, YOU JUST DID A SWEAR AT ME AND THAT WAS UNCALLED FOR.
Ares: WHAT?! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU ON ABOUT?!
Quasar: OOOOH MY GOD YOU JUST DID IT AGAIN YOU ARE SO INAPPROPRIATE.
Quasar: I think you should kiss me to make up for it.
Ares: What? What kind of logic is that? You're weird!
Quasar: Yeah. Bet you think I'm totes cute though, huh.
Ares: Haha, okay, you got me. I like ya.
YESSS.
Oh, sweet, her first meal cooked and it's only gonna burn down the park. XD
Or...it's not gonna burn at all. Whatever.
Quasar: Am I interrupting something?
Whoa there, Brandon Lackadaisy! You've been alive for like ten minutes!
This is Judah Picselle-Trede, of brilliantcat origin.
With numbers exchanged with Ares, it was time to head home and work on that whole "job" thing. With aspirations of owning a toilet and a shower, Quasar applied for a job as a criminal.
Apparently the background check must have gone through pretty quickly, because they immediately accepted her into the mafia fold.
Quasar, honey...you can cook if you want. I won't get mad.
Later that night, she gives Ares a call.
Sometimes I really wish I could tell what they were talking about.
Upon realising that this peggy-made bed was both improperly animated AND out of place in a beach shack...
I got Quasar a more fitting bed, courtesy MATY.
First day of work!
Quasar: Now, do I break their kneecaps if they don't pay? Or their thumbs? I can never remember...
Cab driver of ultimate win.
JUDAH, PUT THAT BACK. Cat, your sims are out to get me.
Wait, seriously? $78 worth of bills for living in an open-air shack with no electricity for ONE DAY?!
To soothe my wtfery rage, we invite Ares over. To my complete shock, he says yes.
As a reward for her promotion, I build Quasar a nice earthy shower.
Areli: HI EVERYONE! Welcome to the Areli Starling show! On today's episode, we -
Ares: Who is that woman talking to?
...Voyeur.
Quasar: Oh, hey! I can't get to you, but hi!
Ares: Hi!
Quasar: Oh goodness, I forgot to put on clothes!
Quasar: Sorry about that. I do it all the time.
Ares: No problem at all! I think you're lovely when you're naked!
Quasar: You do?
Ares: Phew, yes, especially if it means you're taking a shower.
Quasar: Aww, you're so sweet.
Quasar: I don't like factories. They're too noisy.
Quasar: I think we should power things with soccer players instead. They're really powerful.
Ares: Are you serious? That would never work! They couldn't produce the kind of energy electricity does!
Guys. You are ruining the beautifully-backdropped moment.
Ares: Quasar? I'm sorry for arguing earlier. I'd really like to be friends with you.
Quasar: That's fine. I'd like that, too.
Awwwww.
Well, that's all for now! I may update sooner than next week, but definitely no later than! And I'll try to have my other legacies updated soon, too. ^_^ Hope you enjoyed!
