The Kaleido Legacy 1.1
Surprise! I finally got to installing GIMP and edited everything last night. So now I'm pleased to present to you...
The Kaleido Rainbow/Alphabet Legacy Challenge!
Warnings: Fug townies, rejection, possibly poisonous zero-cooking-skill-point sandwiches, innuendos, lots of capslock, lots of actions, and overall first posted legacy suckishness.
Enjoy!

So you may be wondering how in the world I came up with Amber's last name. Well, a few months ago, I came across the very popular rainbow legacy challenge and thought that it sounded pretty fun. I tried to think of a last name that was relevant to the challenge, like the rules said, and I came up with Kaleidoscope. I went over to rainbowlegacy to see if anyone had already taken that name. I didn't see it on the list, so I thought 'Hey, awesome, I'll use that name then.' I made my founder sim, closed up the game and went back online a few days later. AND WHAT DO I SEE? Someone takes the name. SO, I go back, remake the sim and shorten the name. And TA DA! Thus is the creation of the name 'Kaleido'. :D
Anyway, on with the update!
We begin with an aerial of Amber's house. It's very yellow, as you can tell. It's very bright, and cheery.
I love it.
And here's an external view of the house.
Amber doesn't look to impressed.
Amber: *sigh* No, it's not even that. Could you just unpause the game already? I'm tired of standing here; plus,there's sand in my shoe.
sinceremee: Ok, ok. Sheesh.
So, I unpause, and the first thing Amber does is make a beeline for the easel.
You'll find out soon enough that she loves that easel. ^.^
STOP THE PRESSES. We have a Matchmaker...
with an awesome name!
(For those who can't make out the name tag, it says Vamsi Mazza.)
Maybe she's that one pizza delivery girl's grandma or something.
Anyway, she goes on to do the typical matchmaker I'm-here-now-so-pay-attention-to-me-or-I'll-give-you-a-fugly-townie-date warning popup and typical scrubbing-the-crystal-ball actions.
MM: I'll get you my pretty!
*eyes flicker as she plots demise of some unfortunate sim*
sinceremee: Err... yeah. *backs away*
About 10 sim!minutes later, the welcome wagon arrives with some... interesting visitors.
Ahh, yes. We have Pinky (whose real name is Katherine Chalmers), Fugs McFuggson (aka Korey Wong), and Cornrow Girl (aka Tracy Olshfski). Welcome, welcome!
Amber proceeds to go meet the unfortunate street crawlers and Korey is the first to acknowledge her.
I love how she acts all shy. ^.^ Shy sims= <3
Meanwhile, in the distance, Vamsi is not pleased to hear Amber meeting people that she did not set her up with.
Vamsi: *Matchmaker senses tingle* What is that? She's TALKING to WHO?
Amber: You're nice. I like you. :D
CG: ...LIKE so PARTLY CLOUDY is the BEST weather EVAR...
Pinky is next in line and breaks the ice by telling some HILARIOUS joke to Amber.
Amber: BEACH BALL! OMG HAHAHAHA! That's too good!
Vamsi: WUT. ARE. YOU. DOING. *stalks*
CG and Vamsi: *stalk*
Vamsi: B..Bu...But don't you want to look into my crystal ball? PLEASE?!
*rams arm through CG's torso*
CG: *doesn't realize*
Amber: *ignores Vamsi's attempts for attention* Hehehe, you're too funny! I'd love to hang sometime.
Vamsi: WHAT. NO. PLEASE, over here! Look! I just buffed it! HEY!
*continues to hold arm in CG's stomach*
CG: *goes into shock and starts twitching*
Amber: *finally turns around* Who's calling m... OHGOD D:
Vamsi:*relocates her arm*
CG: *pleads*
Pinky: *is oblivious*
CG: *chokes* Save me...?
sinceremee: DDDD:
Vamsi: Woo! I got your attention! FINALLY! *stabs elbow into CG's chest*
Amber: Ack. Get away from me you greedy old thing. >(
CG: ....ow.... D:
Pinky: *is still oblivious*
Amber decides to escape from the madness that is her front yard and goes inside to raid the fridge.
sinceremee: Whatcha makin?
Amber: Sandwiches. Happy?
sinceremee: ...ok. :(
Amber: A little of this, a little of that. Ooh, what's this? Oh well, it looks good.
*pours unknown, possibly poisonous ingredient onto ham*
Meanwhile, outside, FMcF and CG argue over some topic of conversation.
FMcF: Are you KIDDING me? No, I don't know what a SOCCER BALL means!!
CG: *breaks off finger* *minus*
(Hm.. let's see who will get that quote! -Hint- It's by someone on my f-list ;) )
Meanwhile, back inside, Amber and Pinky chill on the plastic sofa.
Amber: I made some delicious sandwiches! Please have one!
Pinky: Ew. Who knows what you put into those. You and your 0 cooking points.
Amber: What?
Pinky: Nothing.
Amber: FINE. WHATEVER. I'll meet other people who are willing to try my fabulous sandwiches!
Pinky: *struts away*
Pinky finally breaks down, and heads over to the serving platter.
Pinky: Errr... I'm still not sure about these.
Amber: *spaces out*
Pinky: Are you SURE these are ok to eat?
Amber: *continues to space out*
Later, Pinky gives up, eats the sandwich and goes on to terrorize CG.
Amber and FMcF hang out on the couch.
Amber: You know, you're as sweet as a ice cream sundae. ^.^
FMcF: WHAT!!? What did you say about me??
*rage*
Let's get a closeup of that, shall we?
D:
DNW
Outside, things are slightly less scary. Here we have a fairly cute teen townie. Her dad must be Goopy y/n?
A few minutes later, FMcF and Amber retire to the dining area two feet away.
Amber: See, I TOLD Katherine that I would meet someone who would love to have one of my delicious sandwiches!
*Pinky stalks nearby*
FMcF: I know! I don't understand what her problem is. I think these are so good. Whatever, she's missing out.
Pinky: *plots demise of Fug* You will regret that.
Well, apparently someone liked them. So much so that all that remained was the dish.
sinceremee: Amber, what's that green stuff there...?
Amber: *whistles*
Much later, we have another episode happening in the kitchen.
Pinky: aflkjsdfnejh What is that horrid stench??
CG: :) *reeks*
FMcF: Huh wha... GAH WHAT IS THAT??
Pinky: IK, whew!
CG: Alright, ALRIGHT. I'm leaving right now. You two are on my hitlist.
FMcF: I feel disgusting after smelling that. *scrubs skin off hands*
Finally, Amber reappears and makes a late-night dinner for herself.
She didn't burn it, at least.
Amber: Umm, I think you can stop now. I think it's bad for your skin if you keep washing your hands. Especially like that.
FMcF: WHAT? I'm sorry I can't hear you over the roaring water! *continues to scrub vigorously*
Seriously, he stood there for 30 sim!minutes and kept turning around to wash his hands.
Well, there goes the water bill.
After rubbing off what skin was left on his hands ridding himself of the stench and germs, FMcF goes on to reenact a typical high school first date drop-off.
FMcF: You're so pretty. :]
Amber: *blushes* Heehee. :]
Amber: Nahh... wait really? :D
Amber invites him back in and the two hang out... in her bedroom...?
<3333333
Korey goes to make his move, and then ... is shut down.
Amber: Um. No.
Korey: Wha...what?
Korey: I thought...we had something... D:
*drops into depression*
Aww, lookit that face :[
No! Must. Resist. From. Falling. For. It.
Finally, Korey gets the hint and leaves. Amber immediately falls into bed, drained from the insane afternoon.
The next morning, Amber jumps out of bed and runs to her easel. She seriously loves that thing.
<333333

Right outside, Amy Jones makes an appearance. Even though I swear I thought I got rid of her when I cleaned out my neighborhood.
Anyway, Amy, how do you like wearing your thick, wooly sweater in the sweltering heat as you walk for miles to the next house?
Amy: Shut up. They don't pay me enough to put up with this. Stupid legacy writers.
After tearing Amber away from her kindergarten painting masterpiece, I have her look for a job.
Luckily, the first choice is her LTW career. Nice :)
Immediately after finding her dream job, Amber runs for her pallette and brush. I seriously can't keep her away. It kind of worries me.
Oh, hai ther Kennedy-disguised-as-a-teen.
KDAAT: Darn it. They caught me again.
Back inside, Amber's workout is interrupted by a phone call.
Guess who it is. XD
FMcF: *mumble mumble*
Amber: HAH, you wanna take me on a trip. RIGHT. Good one.
Amber:...on a cruise ship...? Um...
Amber: Uh nunununo I don't think so, buddy.
Amber: WAT. NO. GROSS. *cringes*
Amber: What did you just say you were gonna do??
Amber: HAH you couldn't pay me enough to do that!
Amber: WHAT. O_O
(Please excuse the lack of ceilings, I forgot to put them in right away.)
Amber: You know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna call the cops on you. That's right.
Amber: HA, see, then you'll be a wanted criminal. You think you can get away with saying that stuff to me? That has to be some kinda offense! Or assault! Where's my training handbook...?
Amber: O_o
Amber: Yeah, YEAH, that's what I thought.
And I leave you with Amber threatening to take Korey to court.
I hope you enjoyed this!
I've never posted a legacy before, so please, give me some feedback. What could I do better? Is there something I forgot?
I love to hear from you guys. :D
Next time:
Will Amber find the ONE? Will she meet some semi-normal townies? Will she really take Korey down with the Law?
Stay tuned for next week's episode of The Kaleido Legacy!
BTW: This is one of my various challenges that I play. I'm probably going to post at least 1 more here, but it'll be another type of challenge, of course.
Also, many thanks to everyone who helped me with my lj-cut. I now know how to make them work :)
*edited* Fixed strikethroughs. Thanks for bringing that to my attention!
<3 You!
