Summertime...and the living is easy...

Mar 28, 2009 17:46

In contemplating the future of the Fitzhughs, I've been thinking about how much I'm going to feature the extended family in my updates. I've come to the decision that mostly it's just going to be the main family, with the first cousins popping in where it's appropriate and the rest of the family not much at all unless the members pertain to my ( Read more... )

challenge: apocalypse, story: updates, family: vetinari, family: morgan

PHILLIP. I approve of the name choice, for sure! *thumbs-up*

LOL I'm glad you like it!

HAHAHA! I LOVE that foreshadowing. That's awesome. :)

Yay for old and saggy Cassbert. I loved getting to see that house. I think this is what LJ was made for, so we can show off all our spares without clouding the updates too much.

I seriously laughed aloud when I found that. I love it when my brain anticipates what I'm going to do before I even realize I'm going to do it.

I really love playing that house so I'm glad you all enjoyed the picspam. I definitely agree that this is one of the many valuable uses of LJ.

Awesome picspam.

You know how I love foreshadowing. Inadvertant foreshadowing is even better..

Looks like my subconscious called it again! I didn't even know Bella and Andrew were going to hook up at that point.

Yeah, it makes sense to keep the extended family out of the updates, unless it's plotty. I haven't figured out what I'll do in the future, but I only have first cousins now, so it's not an issue yet.

The Vetinaris = extremely cute. And I get why you let Gordon have another kid, despite trying to keep your population down - that house just seems so sad! As for the nanny...well, Eloise basically did the same thing with Xander. All the freaking time. And then put him down to get scared by Joss's ghost.

Yeah, those are going to be some cheekbones.

Definitely best superhero team ever.

And yay for inadvertent foreshadowing!

It's a shame I have no room though. I adore playing these guys.

The Vetinari clan is so adorable. Yeah, that's pretty much exactly why I let Gordon have a second kid. It's so strange to play small houses now, plus there's the whole bit with her parents. *pokes the nanny*

Yay for cheekbones? I'm pretty interested in what the final product is going to be there.

Lex and Gordon clearly form TEAM AWESOME.

Inadvertent foreshadowing for the win ^_^

Am I the only one looking at Robin going "zomgs it's Raven!"? I blame the hair, hehe. But she's adorable, as it the whole family (and not just because it has SJ in!). Hurray for elder Cassbert! They've gotten everywhere now, worse than a Bluewater plague.

GAH rubbish Nanny. I only have them very rarely and I think I've just been uber lucky not to have a dim one. Oh, except for the one who keeps showing up EVEN THOUGH I'VE FIRED HER FIVE TIMES GAH. Here's hoping she starts treating Phillip better. *nods*

Yay for LJ for being a place where you can put extra yummy things like this :)

smoothiesims March 30 2009, 06:33:41 UTC

Ah, would you look at that. I did give her Raven's hair by accident. LOL. She is really cute and I think that whole family is just made of win (thanks muchly to Doc for letting me appropriate her Sims for my evil purposes). Clearly the goodness of Cassbert is too much for anyone to resist.

OY, that sounds like the most annoying nanny in the history of ever. I'm hoping when Sydney gets her final promotion and starts working night hours we won't even need the woman anymore. We'll see.

Three cheers for LJ!
