The Frost Legacy 2.1
In our last episode: Nellie married the lovely Llama Fauna but almost lost her forever six hours later and welcomed two daughters to the family; Aggie and Fei.
As you can see, Llama has taken to motherhood like a duck to water.... an aquaphobic duck....
Aggie: I'm a froggie! Ribbit! *hops around Llama's ankles*
Good job, Ticky. You also missed your carpool for the first time in many years. But considering your wife died last night, I'm totally gonna let it all slide. I know you're feeling like half a person right now....
Chess practice is serious business for Nellie.
Umm, Ticky.... floorbaby?
Ticky: "There are so many bottles to clean up. I only have two hands."
She cleaned up one bottle, then forgot what she was doing. She also forgot about Fei on the floor....
Llama missed her carpool. Seems it sent her over the edge....
Therapist: "Hrm, I'm sensing a pattern for new spouses in this family. You feel overwhelmed with responsibility, don't you? You feel you've let your new family down and aren't living up to their expectations? You say you live with your mother-in-law? Tsk, tsk. No wonder you're so wound up! You know what helps me when I'm stressed out? Dancing. Seriously, give it a try - just lose yourself in dance whenever you feel like you can't cope?"
Llama: "You want me to... dance now...?"
Therapist:"Damn skippy. Show me what you've got, girl!"
Therapist: "My work here is done."
Aggie. It's always sunshine and rainbows with Aggie. <3 <3
... time to find out just whose hair Fei has inherited....
Llama: *bes very stand off-ish for her own daughter's birthday party*
Nellie: *is blue with the cold again*
Nellie's hair. And elf ears - I checked! But such a grown-up face for such a little girl! At least she'll grow in to it...
Llama: "Oh god, is that a wrinkle???!!!"
Two very different sisters for full-blooded siblings, huh? I love them both to pieces.
Aggie: *loves the cooking pot and bangs on it all day long*
Fei: "Change me!!!"
Llama: "Oh, hell no! I need changing more than you do!"
Fei.
Nellie was very glad when Keira came to visit for Aggie's birthday. She's missed her a lot.
Child Aggie. Definitely growing in to her features (though I'm not sure she'll ever grow in to that chin).
The reason Nellie has been getting so cold this winter - she's discovered the joys of stargazing!
Ticky: "You're my favourite granddaughter, Fei. You remind me of my beloved Moonbeam. She would have loved you so much!"
Aggie: "Fly soup again...." *sigh*
That face is gonna break hearts!
Aggie: "Huh, at least it doesn't have flies all over it...."
Parenting fail. The Frosts have it.
Keira: "Stop squirming, silly! You're gonna love the bath if I ever get you in it!"
Fei: I don't wanna.....
The adorable Lieu Pertulle by needlecream dropped by to meet the family.
Lieu: Bok bok bok bok bok *is ever so clucky!*
Seriously, she tickled Fei repeatedly for something like three or four hours. I think somebody is looking to marry in to a legacy and start on some babies of her own soon....
I don't think Aggie made any friends on her first day of school... poor thing....
Still, she has discovered the joys of video games now...
Fei: *all tickled out*
Did I mention that Aggie grew up badly? Because she did. And her tantrums are becoming legend in the Frost household.
Llama: "Spare change?"
Bus Driver: "Hah, if I had spare change do you think I'd be driving a school bus for a living?"
Llama: "Touché." *pout*
Aggie: "I don't wanna go to school today...."
Llama: "I don't want to go to work either. Let's just stay home and have a girl's day for ourselves, what do you say?"
Llama actually chooses not to bathe. Don't let Nellie being in the bath fool you. Llama sponge bathes whenever possible.
Llama: "How dare you poke me? Who do you think you are?"
Vivacia: "Lighten up, it was just a joke...."
Llama: "Get off my lawn!"
Operation Cheer Llama Up Enough To Go To Work Someday featuring Pillow Fights....
They're not as demonstrative in their love as Ticky and Moonbeam were, but the affection between them can't be denied. I think they're shy, personally. They're more affectionate behind closed doors of their bedroom or in the backyard where nobody can see them than they ever are in a crowded room....
Nellie: "What do you mean, are you a bad kisser??? You're an amazing kisser, silly!"
Llama: "You're not just saying that?"
Nellie: ".... let me show you how much I'm not just saying that...."
I missed it! I never miss deaths! Pregnancy pops, always, but never deaths! I'm so sorry, Ticky....
And what a sweet insurance policy. She left money only to her immediate family, nobody else. She will be missed very much. The family shipped Tyrell's grave off to the local cemetery (anonymously!) and buried Ticky in the garden amid the flowers, with a vase of roses they'd preserved from one of her dates with Moonbeam sitting atop her gravesite. Everybody was devestated.....
Fei felt that she had the most terrible birthday ever. I tend to agree. No cake, no fanfare, no gifts. Just the death of her grandmother. And instead of a birthday party, she got to attend a wake.
A wake featuring the smustle stylings of Aggie Frost....
... featuring Fei Frost as a backup dancer....
Fei: "I don't want to go to school. My grandma just died."
I know, sweetie, but thanks to Aggie missing school yesterday there are social worker popups. Please go.
Fei: "Fine, but I won't enjoy it."
Fine.
The only person not grieving over Ticky was Llama. The moment Ticky was dead, Llama immediately perked up and started acting like her old happy self. She even went to work for the first time since moving in. And kept going to work every day thereafter. Turns out she's in the athletic career.
It gave me mixed feelings, though. Everybody else was bawling their eyes out every few minutes over Ticky while Llama was dancing around, all lollipops and smiles. However, how hard would it be to live with your mother-in-law 24/7? I couldn't do it. I'd probably be almost as depressed as she was....
Aggie poured her sadness out in to art. She painted a lovely picture of herself and her grandma in front of the house. Nellie was very enthusiastic and supportive about it and hung it on the wall where everybody could see it.
Fei, learning to be cold and calculating chess.....
The adorable Syria by mikelisryker.
.... because it wouldn't be the Frosts without somebody pranking someone else....
Nellie: "Bahaha! You should have seen your face!"
Syria: "I'm shocked! Literally....."
Why yes, that is a baby bump you can see on Nellie..... that was actually the reason I missed Ticky's demise... I was zoomed right in on the bed straining my ears for the sounds of a baby jingle over the sounds of my boyfriend watching television, feeling somewhat voyeuristic for being so close in.... LOL
Aggie isn't the only one pouring her feelings in to art. Nellie's even started a painting of her own. It's terrible and she'll probably throw it away, but she finds it therapeutic.
Fei: "Let's just get one thing straight right now. I don't like you."
Aggie: "But.... but why?"
Fei: "This house ain't big enough for the two of us."
Aggie: "... but.... I like you....."
Nellie: "Girls, I baked cookies. Come and get them while they're hot! And try to keep it down. Mommy's feeling a little under the weather today. I'm going to take a nice hot bubble bath, so no interruptions. Unless someone calls from a law firm offering me a place. That's the only exception, got it?"
Aggie + Fei: "Thanks Mom!"
See Aggie's masterpiece there on the wall? Yup. Masterpiece.
Also, Nellie still hasn't found a start in the law career. I feel bad for her.... but she is a good mother and a happy wife... two out of three ain't bad, right?
Fei: "As I was saying, I recommend you leave the country immediately. If not the planet."
Aggie: "Why don't you like me?"
Fei: "You're in my way. You've got the cutesie pie factor that goes over well in heir polls. Mom hung your picture on the wall. You sleep in Mom's bed with her when I want to. Take your pick. All of the above."
Aggie: "We could be friends, you know.... Mom and Aunt Keira are friends...."
Fei: "Friends with you? Don't make me laugh!"
Fei really means it. However, you'll all be glad to know that when Fei attacked Aggie, Aggie kicked her ass. The same thing happened a few hours later with the same result. It's so weird for me though. I never have siblings who aren't friends, or at least civil. The fisticuffs surprised me.
Welcome to Tantrum City featuring Sisters Who Can't Stand To Be On The Same Lot.
Fei: "Can't you kill her? She makes me so miserable!"
I still don't even know why she makes you miserable. You started all this! She's never done a single real thing to make you dislike her.
Fei: "I hate her so much!"
Aggie: "Why does she hate me so much? What did I do?"
I think the worst part of Fei's hate is that it really upsets Aggie. She's trying to make friendly advances, all the time. And being shot down then insulted or poked or attacked.
Mini-Moonbeam. She even reminds me of her at certain angles, such as this one. Sure, technically she looks more like Ticky in her facial features, but there are Moonbeam elements in play that catch at my heartstrings at moments like these....
Long live the bathroom smustle!
Fei: That's all very well if you're a gnome or a pink flamingo or some other lawn ornament, but how does it relate to real life?
Nellie: "Have you been watching the soccer? Best game ever!"
Syria: "OMG, I know right?!"
Btw, I've discovered the OTH of Nellie, Llama, Aggie and Fei. It's the same one for all of them. Sports.
What did I tell you about Llama and sponge bathing? She enjoys it, though she likes to pretend she's embarrassed.
Poor Ticky. Doomed to wear her heinous repairwoman work clothes for all eternity..... Still, at least she's a ghost with a hammer. You don't see that too often.....
Aggie: "Ahhh! Get away! Stranger danger, stranger danger!"
Llama: "What are you talking about? I'm your mother!"
Aggie: "Prove it....?"
Llama: "Of all the ungrateful.... I work, damnit! I work for the money that puts food on your table! If I don't spend as much time with you as you'd like, maybe you should think about that a little....."
Aggie: "Mom, I was just kidding......"
Llama: "Oh...."
Aggie: *under breath* "Sort of...."
Ahhh, puddle splashings during summer storms..... clever.....
It's Harper Black by simbic. So much pretty.... even though Legacville is overflowing with pretty townies by other simmers, I still can't stop downloading....
Nellie: "Ahhhhhh! Get it out of me!"
It's a girl! Meet Lizbeth. As with Fei, she's not a toddler yet, so I'm not sure whose hair she's inherited, but she has Llama's eyes and a geneticized skintone. Three girls. Hopefully they won't all hate one another too much, if Fei and Aggie are any indication....
Nellie thinks they're sweetest at this age.... I don't blame her.... their needs are so small and they only scream when they actually need something.....
Now..... I'm warning you.... prepare to be shocked......
See that?!?! That's Moonbeam's urn!! Or it was before Fei wantonly smashed it for no reason. I'm pretty sure this girl may in fact be the Antichrist. Smashing your own grandmother's remains, the grandmother who loved you and even left provision for you in her will. Not cool.
At this point, I randomly clicked on her just to have a sneak peek at her wants panel. Her chief want is to kill her sister, literally. She makes Moonbeam's locking Tyrell in the bathroom until he expired seem tame....
I then clicked on Aggie's wants. You know what she wants? To be friends with Fei. So sad....
Harper: I can't believe that these people just leave piles of broken porcelain and ash lying around. Their children could step on it in their bare feet and cut their feet open. I'm taking out the trash. *smug*
Noooo! Moonbeam!!! Now you're really gone forever........ *cries in a corner rocking back and forth*
