The Parvenu Legacy: 5.4
Previously: Karst got arrested and brought shame to his political office and was forced to resign. Kristi developed a love for laundry. Mars developed a love for being left alone. Price retired, got a new fashion, and moved the family to Twinbrook.
Illinois came home from work one afternoon to find Galahad happily watching TV by himself. Why he likes to be alone is beyond me.
Price made the sink unbreakable and Illinois had to come downstairs to check it out.
Illinois: "Superb handyman skills as always Old Man! I challenge you to a match of skills!"
Skills, being video games. Sinclair was also happily unaware of what was going on around her.
Price: "These games aren't anything like I've played before." *gulp*
Haddy: "So I heard that Grampa was getting us a trampoline with his pension check."
Harmony: "Trampoline?? Why have I jut now heard of this? I am so there right now and you are coming with me!"
Haddy: "I have books I could be reading." :(
Harmony: "Oh stop being all goody-goody. I'm going to double bounce you now as punishment."
Harmony: "Oops. Didn't mean for you to go that high. Please don't fall on me..."
Later that night, Illinois needed to have a talk with her Dad.
Illinois: "Okay Dad, let me get this straight. I completely dominated in the video game tournament and as punishment you purposely bought my baby girls that dreadfully dangerous trampoline??!"
Price: "I did buy them the trampoline, yes. You love it too, right girls?"
Haddy: "I hate it. I'm tired and I want to die."
Harmony: "No it's so cool! We both love it!"
Illinois: "I will I have you know that when one of my babies receives a severe brain injury from falling off that thing I will be looking at you Dad."
Illinois: "Did you do your homework dear?"
Harmony: "Wah ... Knew I forgot somthin' but I'm so tired... Can't open eyes."
Illinois: (I am SO going to kill that man for this!)
Price: "Kristibear? Did I do a bad thing getting our grandchildren that trampoline?"
Kristi: "So long as it doesn't interfere with my garden, it was a great idea! Very thoughtful and loving."
Rue took it upon herself to clean up the house a bit. Despite being able to go through walls and being able to materialize enough to hold solid objects, she apparently couldn't get through Galahad to put the rocket away. Meanwhile, Galahad through a very loud tantrum.
Sinclair was a bit angry. Illinois could sleep through anything, and yet she was always losing her precious sleep to the crying of an infant that wasn't even her own.
Sinclair: "Listen here you little brat! I will NOT have you crying all night. You can cry all day long when I'm AWAKE but when I am ASLEEP I better not hear a peep from you or you are going to your Fathers!"
Galahad: (ohholythisladyisscaryohgoddon'thateme)
He woke Kristi up from two rooms over and she came to save the day.
He also woke up Harmony from upstairs.
Sinclair gave up on sleep, and so did Price and Haddy.
But one person managed to sleep through it all. Yes, despite the nursery door being glass and right beside her bed ...
Illinois never lost one bit of sleep.
Thankfully for the sake of everyone, it was time for Galahad to become a child and join his sisters.
Harmony: "HAPPY BIR-- Oh sims! What happened to your head?"
Galahad: "Thank you, I quite like it."
Harmony: "That's about the dorkiest thing I've ever seen! I am never going to let you live it down!" *giggles*
Galahad: "I have no problems with hitting a girl."
Galahad developed the over-emotional trait.
Even at an early age, he was thinking about love.
Galahad: "If two people love each other, why can't they always be together? Daddy tells me that he loves Mommy, but Mommy loves my other Mommy. And Daddy loves my other other Mommy too. I just don't get it."
Harmony: "Just do your homework doofus."
Harmony: "Hey Dorkzilla, there is someone at the door."
Galahad: "And?"
Harmony: "Answer it, Dork Vader."
Mars had come to pay his son a visit. Due to my game closing and me being angry unforeseen circumstances, he could not be present at the birthday party.
Galahad: "Hi Daddy! I sure am glad to see you! Those half-sisters of mine are so mean to me."
Mars: "Mean to you? Mean to my son?"
Mars: "I am going to have to have a talk with your mother about her children. I am going to run and find her."
Mars: "That was just to exhausting. I give up!"
He ran all of 5 feet. Way to go, champion.
Galahad: "It's okay Daddy, help me with my homework instead?"
Mars: "Well, I was never very good in school. I usually was just passed to the next grade because the teachers didn't want me in their class anymore."
Galahad: (All my dreams of having a cool father crushed in the matter of 10 minutes.)
Price came out to tell Galahad it was time for bed when he realized that Mars was there. He decided to strike up a conversation about perhaps marrying his no-good daughter and making his grandson legitimate. Illinois happened to get off work around the same time.
Illinois: "Why is my Dad talking with the father of my son in my front yard after dark.
Price: "I know you are married, but she's married too. Maybe your wife will take my daughter's wife as her own?
Illinois: "--On second thought, I don't want to know."
Price noticed how weak Mars looked and decided to use his 10 athletic points to fix that problem fast.
Price: "Listen here you scrawny little sucker you! We're gonna put some muscle on that body yet. Keep up pace! No slacking!"
Mars: "HELP! Illinois! Your Dad is killing me!"
Mars: "Seriously, KILLING ME!"
Price: "Real men don't hide behind women boy! On your feet right now!"
Mars: "You slave driver, I'm trying! Please just let me go home .. I have a wife!"
Illinois: "I thought I heard someone screaming like they were being murdered. Oh? It's only Mars. Well, I just came to tell you goodnight Dad. Love you!"
Price: "Aw, I love you too honey!"
Mars: "Oh crap, look at the time gotta go!" (Saved!)
Eugene stops by for a nap. He could sleep on the couch, but would rather be on the love seat. Go figure.
The next morning is Saturday. After some fierce negotiations with his Mother, Galahad gets to venture into the world of capitalism.
Haddy: "I don't want to be like Harmony... but did you know that a boy selling muffins on the side of the road is a bit girly?"
Galahad: "Ha! You say that now, but wait until I am rolling in the dough!"
Galahad: "And I won't give you a single cent of my hard-earned money! These muffins are so delicious they will sell themselves!"
Galahad: "This delectable aroma just wafts through the air ever so slightly. Ah, it's just so pleasing to have your efforts appreciated by the world!"
Galahad: (A customer!) "Welcome! How may I help you today good sir?"
Tanner: (Sim made for simpairment) "Good day?! What kind of greeting is that? This establishment is not very appealing to the eye but what is it that you have to offer me?"
Galahad: "Home-made blueberry muffins..."
Tanner: "You call those things muffins?! I've seen better looking muffins at the diet section of the grocery store!"
Needless to say, Tanner was not interested in any muffin that Galahad could offer.
Galahad: "Sir, will you please buy a muffin? Just one? I'll even sell it to you for 90% off."
Man: "Uh ... I just remembered I have somewhere to be. Sorry kiddo!"
Very disheartened, he went to his grandmother for advice.
Galahad: "Gramma. I tried so hard to sell my muffins but no one wanted them. I'm I really that bad with people that I am destined to be alone for my whole life?"
Kristi: "Oh you'll be fine my dear! You just need to interact with more people your age. Try your sisters!"
Encouraged, he went to see out his sister Haddy as she was the nicer one, but Harmony found him first.
Harmony: "What up Mushroom Head?"
Galahad: "I want to develop social skills so I can work my charm on people."
Harmony: "Oh that's super easy! Let me let you in on a secret. The secret to having people love you, well in your case it might be impossible, but getting rid of that dorkified hair would be a great start."
Galahad: "Jeez louise Harmony! Why do you gotta be this way for? I never did anything to you and it's been nothing but hate on me since I was born!"
Kristi: (I heard screaming and this wasn't what I had in mind...)
Galahad: "Seriously I'd like to know because I HAVE NO IDEA how I am supposed to live with this girl for the next 10 years of my life!"
As usual, it was Birthday time. Orion came to the party but promptly forgot where he was.
Indiana: "Come on Uncle Orion, I'll take you home."
Orion: "Oh well thank you dear. Do I know you?"
Also, I just noticed but I do believe that Indiana's husband, Evan, is dancing in a very naughty way with an elderly woman and Jazz is intrigued. Or jealous.
Haddy developed the Schmoozer trait. And is very gorgeous. <333
And Harmony became ... a savvy sculptor. Is being savvy at something really a personality trait? So now she can make a giant mess, forget what she's doing, but still make amazing sculptures. Okay, I'm not going to question it so moving right along!
This one is very much a slob.
While this one is very concerned with her personal hygiene.
And this? I ... don't know what happened to our maid. I don't know why she's wearing Bono Glasses so again, I am just gonna leave that as that.
Harmony: "I was just about to do something, wasn't I? What was it?"
Haddy: "Breakfast, sis!"
Harmony: "Curses! Right as usual Ms. Goody-goody."
Illinois: "Children who are late for breakfast have to eat theirs cold. You will find your portion and your sisters in the fridge."
Haddy: "But Mom I'm standing right here and I'm starving! We all have plans to go visit the new guy in town today!"
The girls heard a new kid their age moved in close by, so they decided to go see who this mysterious boy was.
Harmony: "Why is Dorky McBrother following us?"
Haddy: "Well, he seemed lonely so I invited him."
Harmony: "You.. invited HIM?! Why do you do this to me! We come to meet hot guys and you bring living male repellant with us?!"
Galahad: "Love you too, Sis."
Haddy lets herself in to find none other than Mark Deens (simpairment) and he apparently a Jedi. He starts talking...
And keeps going on and on and on and on.
Haddy: (If I could just get him to shut his mouth for a little while he'd be kind of cute..)
Hours passed, and there was just one teen in the house and he was completely preoccupied with Haddy so these two found a TV.
Galahad: "Sis, I know you hate me, but is it really okay for us to just let ourselves into someones home and watch their TV? This is their bedroom you know. The bed is right there. I really think we should go ho--"
Harmony: "Just shut up. No one asked you to speak Lameazoid."
These two were apparently letting Mark live with them. They seemed to be having a bit of marital trouble.
Man: "Snuggums don't be this way! You know I want to be with you forever!"
Lady: "This is neither the time or the place. I am hungry and I want food NOW."
Haddy: "Uhh.. Do we need to leave?"
Mark: "They are like this every single day, don't pay them any mind."
Man: "Please don't be mad, I just love you so much, please?"
Lady: "If you don't get out of my way I am going to eat your face off. And I am hungry so I will do it!"
Haddy: "Oh, well, so do you have a part-time job?"
Mark: "No, I hate being with people so I try to avoid them at all costs."
Haddy: "You are in a room full of people right now and you seem to be okay."
Mark: "Oh."
Man: "Shesh, I'll get out of your way Ms. Grumpy Pants."
Mark: "So now that we might as well be alone, how about we get to know each other a bit better?"
Haddy: "Hmm, well what do you have in mind?"
Mark: "Well what were you thinking about baby?"
Haddy: "Well I like you and I think you like me so maybe..."
Haddy tries to get her first kiss with Mark, and is shot down.
Mark: "Uh, I was more thinking about maybe talking or playing scrabble?"
Embarrassed, Haddy left as quickly as she could. She didn't even bother to see if Harmony and Galahad were still around, but Mark was finally realizing what just happened.
Haddy: "See you later, Mark. Maybe."
Mark: (Okay Mark, what just happened. A member of the opposite sex just said she liked me and tried kiss me? I am so flattered!)
Mark: "Wait Haddy, come back! I'm flattered you feel that way about me!"
They sure were still there even after 5 hours.
Mark: "Who are you guys and why are you in my chair? It's time for reruns of Magnum, P.I. and I need that chair."
Galahad: "Can we leave now? I don't want to watch that show."
Harmony: "For the first time, I think I might have to agree with you and I won't even call you an insulting name."
Galahad: "That sure is a first."

Spare Update:
Karst and Shilah's daughter is now a Teenager and she is quite lovely.
--------------------------
My game still likes to close, usually right after I just put a lot of effort into making someone look better after a birthday. That being the case, this is now the theme song to my legacy.
Oh I almost forgot. So I have been seeing how old Price and Kristi are and they are both the same age so they were both about 90 and at full bar. A few sim days later I check Kristi and she's 93 and I check price and he's ......... 74, with only a sliver in his bar. So somehow he got all those years back and I don't know how and I am super mad. He's going to live forever now. XD I just had him retire his job too!
There is a family tree now! You can see it here!
Next update be ready for an heir poll!
