5.12: To Romance a Tart

Hey guys, new chapter time! In the last chapter, we recovered from our gift-giving party, baby Starmie was added to the family, the teens attended prom, and Arbok had a birthday. We then had an heir poll! Time to see the results of that! I’d originally planned to keep the poll open until Saturday, but I feel like most people who wanted to have already cast their votes and I just couldn’t resist playing any longer! So why don’t we find out who’s inheriting this crazy family?

Ditto will not be taking over the legacy. Big surprise there.

Ditto: What a travesty! I feel that I will now die of stress-induced cardiomyopathy…or maybe that’s just the starvation I subjected myself to in order to keep my shapely form for the sake of winning over readers…

Oh, don’t be so dramatic. It doesn’t become you.

Espeon will also not be the heiress.

Espeon: I have no puns for this situation. Screw you guys.

That bitch face though…

Ditto: Spoiler alert, baby brother. She’s about to tell you that you’re not the heir.

Arbok: Oh. Ok then. Didn’t really expect to be anyways.

Kudos to Ari for coming in second place though.

Arbok: Great, I’m the first loser. Awesome.

Which means that Missingno, the one ghost child of the generation, will be taking the reins and running this legacy! Congratulations, Em. How do you feel about this situation?

Missingno: Meh.

Em won by a landslide, guys. The others never even had a chance, really. I guess that’s to be expected since he is the only ghost and his future wife Chandra is the only spouse we’ve actually seen up close and personal. I’m glad he won though. I love all my lavender children, but I’ve been rooting for him since the beginning XD

Altaria: Look at all of you, talking about heirship and other such baloney. MY BROTHER JUST DIED.

She hasn’t stopped crying since we got the message. She didn’t do this with Azelf or Phione, and it’s not like she and Bobo were very close. I can only imagine how she’ll react when Kyo-kun dies.

With our next heir named, it was time for him to finally communicate with his betrothed. And since Ditto’s prospective spouse Franny is sisters with Chandra and lives in the same house, he got to come along. I figured that if the two of them got on well enough, we’d bring her with us when we move. If not, I’m sure there are plenty of eligible ladies or gentlemen for Ditto in the next town.

Ditto: Gee, how nice of you to think of me.

Espeon: I wanna meet my prospective husband too…

Sorry hun, he’s not even a teen yet! Like I said with Ditto, there will be plenty of eligible bachelors for you in the new town.

Espeon: Hmmph.

When we arrived at the Tart household, this puppy was waiting for us outside. I’m kind of mad at this family for leaving him outside in the cold, but he seems pretty proud of his position as guard dog, so I guess I can forgive it this once.

Dog: Are these young boys here to spread their seed to the innocent young girls under my care? Blasphemy! I shall now bark incessantly to warn my humans of these insolent boys!

As someone was actually coming out to greet our twins, all the dogs of the house surrounded Ditto. Not sure if they liked him or they thought he was a bigger threat than Em.

Dog: Greetings, human. What business have you here?

Little Dog: Am I doing this surrounding thing right, boss?

Ditto: I’m so happy with this situation.

Ditto is never happy.

Em is finally greeted by…Kindra Van Gould! What in the world is she doing living with the Tart-Bedlam family? I could have sworn she and her mother were still living in the Van Gould mansion even though Deo and Kurtis broke up.

Francesca: So these are the Kanto men that we’re engaged to marry, huh sis?

Chandra: I get the cool ghost dude. Score!

Little Dog: I do not like ghost person! Ghost person is scary!

Chandra: Does my fairy magic impress you?

Maybe a little…if you remember, Klink’s first girlfriend Abigail was a fairy. She never played around with her magic.

Our friend Kindra must be a coward. After calmly and politely letting the boys inside, she went into the living room to faint from seeing a ghost. She could also be dramatic, I suppose.

Kindra: It’s too much for me…

Do you think she does this every time she sees herself in front of a mirror?

We’re off to a great start already.

Francesca: Oh golly, I tripped! I’m so embarrassed…

Ditto: Help?…

Missingno: Hurr durr, she’s hot…

Chandra: That’s right, future husband. Adore me.

The baby’s portrait turned yellow so I zoomed back home to check on her. Big brother Ari was on the case!

Arbok: I have a sister 😀

Back at the Tart house…

Francesca: ~pant pant~ Woof! Woof!

Ditto: Do you…need medical attention?

I can tell this is going to be a looong night for Ditto.

Chandra: Sooo, welcome to my crib. It’s not much, but it seems I’ll be moving up in the world soon anyways.

Missingno: Indeed you will.

Ditto: Why does he get the pleasant conversational partner?

I have to say, I was rather surprised how well these two got on. Neither of them have a single point in charisma, and yet they got an instant boost to almost friends right when they met! Nifty!

Missingno and Chandra: ~awkward giggling~

Ditto: No, seriously. I can take you to a doctor. We can get help for you.

Missingno: So, this one time Em was in a fight with his little brother Ari.

Ditto: Doctor? Yes, no?

Missingno: See, he was using Em’s toothbrush, and that’s just wrong! I mean, it was an easy mistake I guess since all of our toothbrushes are painted purple like our generation, but he should have totally known better.

Francesca: My mother’s already tried putting a Band Aid  on my brain to fix my crazy. But it didn’t do nothing.

Dog: I approve of this young ghost for marriage to our little Chandra. You may proceed.

Missingno: So Em was like, that’s nacho toothbrush, Arbok. If you don’t put that down, Em is going to throw your computer in a lake. He was so horrified, it was great!

Chandra: Hahaha, I like the way you think, hun!

Ditto: Have you considered getting medicated? You might feel dead inside most days, but at least you won’t be a walking freak of nature anymore, right?

Poor Ditto really looks like he’s struggling with this conversation, doesn’t he?

I kept getting popups about how vampires don’t like the sun, so I went back home and found these two doofs about to burn to death while flirting with each other.

Phillip: At least we would’ve died together, right baby?

Ledyba: I was going to say that at least we died in a cool, extreme way. But yeah, your thing is good too.

Get back inside, you dorks! You’re not allowed to die until after Em takes over!

Missingno and Chandra: ~make stupid faces at each other~

Francesca: Do you wanna make stupid faces too?

Ditto: Get me out of this damn house…

Kindra was making weird noises back in the living room, so I went to check on her. She was just standing there, staring at us with her scarily large ghost-alien eyes.

Kindra: I just wanted senpai to notice me…

Go away, Kindra! We can’t start with the romance with some creep hanging around!

Missingno: Roses are red, violets are blu-

Chandra: Let me stop you right there, hun. Poems are so unoriginal, there’s no way I’d be wooed by something like that.

Missingno: But…Em doesn’t understand…

Chandra: You didn’t honestly think it would be that easy, did you?

Missingno: Em just got…rejected…

Francesca: So I’m a cancer and my astrologist said that my horoscope for today is that I’d meet my soul mate and that we’d unite as one, which we already did. Gotta love glitches, right? So basically we’re going to be getting married and having twenty babies and living happily ever after. Right now. Stop looking at my sister and your brother and pay attention to me!

Ditto: Brother…help me…

Sorry hun, his manly pride’s been compromised. I think you’re on your own for the time being.

Might as well see how attractive they find each other.

Ha! Like that’s ever stopped me before. Seriously though, these two have been the easiest two Sims to become friends I’ve EVER had, and Chandra’s been a chosen spouse since birth. These two things combined, I don’t feel so bad about forcing a relationship upon them. Who knows? Maybe they’ll be like GirbWin from my dual legacy and grow to really love each other.

This guy, Buddy Judd, apparently lives with the Tarts too. He was a potential spouse for Tepig back in the day. He came into the house crying over the death of some chick I didn’t even know existed. Stop trying to distract from the budding romance!

Chandra: Leaf.

Missingno: L…leaf? Did Em hear that correctly?

Chandra: Precisely. Leaf.

Missingno: Okay….

Missingno: So anyways, will you be Em’s teddy bea-

Chandra: Quoting Elvis now? What are you, twelve?

Francesca: Eww, something seriously stinks over here.

Ditto: She…she just peed herself…right in front of me…and then totally denied it happening…

Yeah, somehow I don’t think this relationship is going to work out. Good thing Ditto’s not the heir, or he’d be ruddy miserable the rest of his life.

Chandra: That’s right, you got the cool Tart sister for your legacy. I think my genes will prove most worthy.

So are you ready to be flirted with now?

Chandra: Perhaps.

Missingno: So, no corny poems or song lyrics or pickup lines this time. This is coming straight from Em’s heart. You’re really cool and pretty and Em kind of can’t stop thinking about you…

Chandra: Not so eloquent, but…sweet. I feel the same way, ghost boy.

Missingno: Hehe…cool.

Ditto got sick of crazy Franny and left, probably to change his pee-stained shoes. I’m glad he got back home okay, it’s past curfew.

Ditto: Don’t you ever subject me to that kind of torment again.

Don’t worry hun, I’ll let you pick your own love interest next time.

Chandra: Finally. That boy’s side story with my crazy sister was a decent interlude, but now you can keep the attention where it belongs.

Franny’s Hand: Look what you did, girl. You let that boy get away! You shall be punished for your insolence.

Francesca: But…HAVE MERCY!

I kind of love this family.

Missingno: It’s been an honor to meet you, milady. But Em has to return home now before the curfew police arrest him. Can I see you again?

Chandra: Definitely. I’m looking forward to our next meeting.

Miraculously, Em made it home without getting himself caught. We probably should’ve just asked Chandra to stay over, but I didn’t know how she’d react to that considering she rejected most of our advances up to this point. Besides, Em’s a daredevil. He’d totally stay out as late as possible just to prove he could do it. But back home…

Altaria: You are in so much trouble, young man!

Missingno: Chill out, Tari. You aren’t even Em’s grandmother. You can’t punish me.

Altaria: Wanna bet? You’re grounded until further notice, you insolent brat! Just because you’re the new heir in two days doesn’t mean you can go around flaunting your power like that!

Missingno: Woah, woah. Simmer down.

Seriously. He didn’t even get brought home by the cops. How come Ditto got to come home after curfew but Em gets in a boatload of trouble?

Ledyba: Yeah, no. This shit is dumb. You’re off the hook, kiddo. By the way, as a fellow daredevil I’m really proud of you for avoiding the coppers like that. You’ll have to tell me your secret sometime.

Missingno: Sure thing, ma.

Altaria: WAAAAAAAA NOBODY RESPECTS MY AUTHORITY AND BY THE WAY MY BROTHER JUST DIED, FEEL SORRY FOR MEEEEEE.

Ledyba: Can we fire her from this legacy? Cause she’s seriously getting on my nerves.

Missingno: Don’t worry, mother. She’s bound to die one of these days.

Welp, that’s all I have for this chapter. Hope you guys didn’t mind spending the whole thing attempting (and failing) to impress Chandra. Next time, our twins will age up into adults and Em can officially take over the legacy! Thanks so much for reading and, as always, happy Simming!

Generation 5 Heir Poll

Heir poll time!

This poll will be open for two weeks to hopefully give everyone enough time to vote, especially since finals are getting finished up for lots of people. Choose wisely, children. Whoever you pick gets to run this shindig for a generation…

5.11: Unproductive

Hey guys! Sorry for the Kanto spam but I’m super excited to get to the heir poll and I just really wanted to get this chapter written.

Last time, Ledyba found out that she’s pregnant again and we had a gift-giving party which took up most of the second half of the chapter and totally wasn’t obnoxious at all.

Hey look, a relationship I can approve of since they’re not related! That’s right Hilary, just stay away from Ditto…

>_<

So glad I decided to have us move when the next heir takes over.

Well that’s interesting. The two exes of Jenna are getting together.

And this happened. I’m sure you know how I feel about it at this point.

The Kantos are all winding down from their “epic” party last night. Nobody really had time to sleep cause of school and work in the morning, so I just let them hang around and do whatever. This is what they got up to.

Missingno: Em is extremely cold hearted, don’t you think Auntie Tari?

Altaria: Is this your pathetic way of wishing for compliments? Cause it’s not working.

Arbok: Pink is the best color, don’t you think dad? Don’t you agree that I would be the best candidate to bring pink into our humble legacy?

Phillip: You do realize that green is the next color, right kiddo?

Ditto: Pink, green. Does it really even matter? All art is in the eye of the beholder, no?

Don’t you get philosophical on me, kid. We aren’t that kind of legacy.

Altaria: You have no brains at all if you think anyone would give this legacy to you. And will you leave me alone already? I don’t like you.

Missingno: But…but Auntie Tari. I thought we had something special…

Missingno: C’mon, Auntie Tari, you’re clearly not thinking straight. A hug will fix things.

Altaria: Back off, kid. Nobody touches the goods.

Leds gets to read a pregnancy book.

Ledyba: Not like I’ve already read it three times at this point.

Hey now, you rolled the wish for it.

Our beautiful family.

Arbok: Out of the way, loser! I’m trying to watch TV!

Espeon: As if I care about your views on the situation.

Ditto: For once, I agree with you sis. This little twerp thinks he can make money on music of all things. How lame is that?

Arbok: If you don’t shut up I’ll kill you.

Ditto: My level six athletic skill says otherwise.

Ledyba: Can you all just shut up? I’m trying to read up on uses for the placenta.

Lavender Kids: Ewww, mom! Gross!

After the kiddos left for school and Tari left for work, Leds gets to exercising.

Ledyba: Do you know what having a baby does to your body? And this is my fifth. Gotta keep the weight off somehow.

Fair enough.

Ari decided not to come home from school. I found him at the park almost past curfew.

Arbok: None of the other kids have done this, have they? It just proves how much cooler I am than them.

Right, it’s all about you being cool and has nothing to do with your love of the outdoors.

Arbok: You know it 😀

This is Geneva, born last chapter to Paras and Derik. The MacDuff genes are so strong in this family.

And here’s Sonny. OH MY GOSH HE’S SO CUTE I LOVE HIM.

And finally, here’s Francesca. She’s the sister of Chandra and Ditto’s future wife. She’s super cute too, even though she’s not a fairy.

Oh. So that’s a thing. Can’t say I’m upset since it keeps him away from fellow Kantos.

Except…looks like we’ve got ourselves a wannabe Casanova here.

In the morning, lucky Ditto gets to fix the TV.

Ditto: ~grumble grumble~

Red: Don’t worry kid, you’re doing great!

Essey gets to paint some more.

Arbok: I think you should divorce dad, mother. He’s contributed nothing to this legacy, not even the purple skin he was specifically brought in for.

Ledyba: As if I’d listen to the opinions of a twerp like you.

Arbok: Seriously? You too?

And what’s Em up to?

Missingno: Is Em’s skin dry today? It’s looking a little flaky…

Missingno: Mmmm, no. Em’s just being paranoid. Em is still perfect.

See, Ditto? Now that the TV’s fixed you can continue raising that cooking skill.

Ditto: Yeah, yeah…

I guess Leds isn’t gonna heed her son’s advice. Not that I expected her to. She and Phil are always all over each other. It’s almost gross.

Arbok: Plumbob, Tari! Don’t you know how to knock?

Altaria: Scarring children for life, this is what I keep myself going for.

Oh no. Em’s having troubles.

Missingno: Em’s ok. It’s just a scratch.

Missingno: Have you been eating salad, mother? Vegetarian pregnancies are known to go much smoother than carnivorous ones.

Ledyba: Oh, so now you’re interested in me having a good pregnancy?

Ledyba: Speaking of babies…

Twins: SHE’S HAVING HER BABY WHAT DO WE DO?!?

Ledyba: If you’re gonna stand around shouting like idiots then leave!

Espeon: Honestly. You act like you’ve never seen a woman in labor before.

What, and you have?

Arbok: Fine. New baby can hog all the attention. I’ll just sit in this room and play video games. No big deal.

Hey Phil, your kid’s being born.

Phillip: Eh. You seen one, you’ve seen ’em all.

Ledyba: Remember me? The pregnant lady?

Maid: Oh no…this is so not what I get paid for…

Espeon: Distraction! Have a funny video to make you forget about the labor pains.

Maid: Excuse you, little girl. The woman I love who is married to the man I love is having a baby and you expect me to be amused by your internet sensation?

Espeon: Well you don’t have to be such an ass about it…

Ledyba: Let’s bring the focus back where it belongs, shall we?

I see it isn’t a ghost…nor does it have purple skin…

This is Starmie.

She’s a loner who loves the cold. (Elsa, is that you?)

And she disappoints me.

Ditto: Oh great lord of athletics, please let me have a fighting chance in the coming heir poll. I’m the most athletic Sim in the house, I could beat all my siblings in both mind and body!

We’ll see, kiddo.

Missingno: We’re running out of time, sister. What are we gonna do?

Espeon: Just relax, bro. We’ve got this in the bag. It’ll be fine.

Ledyba: Now that the nooboo is out of my body I can really work on shaping up my form.

Yeah, look at her. She really needs to lose weight.

Oh no. Bobo died 😦

Altaria: Big brother. I shall miss you. But your spirit will live on in this infant.

Umm…no? No it won’t? Don’t say weird things, Tari.

Prom time!

Ditto’s the prom king!

And Essey’s the queen. Big shock there.

Oh, no. Don’t think that’s gonna last long, missy.

If they weren’t so closely related, I might allow this. I know they’re not technically that closely related, but Leds and Cammy were cousins that grew up in the same house and were best friends and it just feels weird to me. Besides, he has Franny to think about.

Overall, not the best prom of all time, but that’s ok. Skipping ahead in time to the next morning….

Birthday time!

Arbok: Let’s hurry this along, I’m starving.

Here’s our boy, all grown up! He’s so handsome! And if you ever forget what Em looks like underneath his ghost, just look at Ari.

Anyways, he rolled party animal, adding to loves the outdoors, virtuoso, and computer whiz. He’s a DJ!

Arbok: I prefer music specialist, thank you very much.

Now all our children are teens and ready to be voted on! But first…

Little Jeannine as a child.

Javon and Ichelle, two of our potential spouses. Obviously they were aged up much earlier than they were meant to, but we need to work fast.

And since Solomon is actually older than those two, he gets to become a child early too. Our little townie children are so cute!

Last thing. Incest baby incoming. ~shudders~

That’s all for this update. Time for the heir poll! Thanks for reading guys, and happy Simming!

5.10: A Time of Getting

Hey guys, time for another chapter of the Kanto legacy! Apparently the last post I did was my 100th post and I didn’t even know…I don’t have anything special planned…sorry for being a lame Simmer XD

Anyways, in the last chapter, Autonomous!Tari topped the political career, Ledyba finished her LTW finally, and Espeon grew up into a gorgeous teen! We were actually productive for once! Will this streak continue? Let’s find out!

Another old lady who’s been around since Pewter gen is poaching our young Kantos…

Double IF baby. In case you forgot, Derik is the son of Phione and Shinx from Cerulean gen, and Paras was the IF and wife of Camerupt

And finally, fourth Herbson baby. And he’s called Sonny?!?! Guys, we got the wrong Van Gould!!!

Phillip: Hey! I resent that!

Sorry Phil. You know I love you.

Ever since her wife died, Autonomous!Tari has been sleeping in the spare room which used to belong to Torchic instead of in her own bed. I guess she still isn’t comfortable sleeping in the bed she used to share with Jamie…

Uh oh, you know what this means…

I didn’t plan on them having a fifth child but they both wanted one, and even though this baby can’t be heir I wanted to give Phillip another chance of passing down the ghastliness and/or purple skin. So we’ll see what happens.

Skilling time! Ditto works on his logic skill now that his mother has vacated the table.

Em does some logic skilling of his own with the chemistry table.

Essey, the artist of the generation, works on her painting skill.

And you, Ari? What are you up to?

Arbok: You’ll see.

Logic for this little guy too, only he gets to do it on the computer.

Our children are so diverse this generation, aren’t they?

Phillip: What’cha doing, hun?

Ledyba: Calling over the extended family.

Phillip: Eww, gross. Why?

Because you all wished to have a gift-giving party and since I love to torment myself with lag, I kindly obliged.

Ledyba: You’re such a saint.

Espeon: The gears have been turning in my mind brother, and I’ve come up with a brilliant plan for us to take over the world together.

Missingno: And what’s that, sis?

Espeon: Dual heirship.

Missingno: Didn’t we just have that a couple generations ago?

Espeon: But with my charm and your evil, who could resist?

Missingno: Hmm…Em concedes that you have a point…

Missingno: But what about Em’s twin? I can’t just leave him to rot. We’re a team.

Espeon: Don’t worry, he can stick around. The guy has all the traits of a bachelor, he probably Kanto get a girlfriend anyways.

Missingno: You make a good point.

Espeon: As I always do.

Ditto: I sense I’m being talked about…I can’t believe my twin of all people would scheme behind my back!

He is evil, you know.

Ditto: Yeah, but I thought he had more class than that…

Obligatory Phillip picture. This is really all he does, in case you haven’t noticed.

Well, I guess he does this too.

Phillip: How am I meant to walk to my room when there’s a pile of presents all the way across the floor from the archway I need? You’re so inconsiderate.

Yeah, yeah. I need you to move anyways, I wasn’t able to plop this down in the middle of the room cause you’re in the way.

Ledyba: Look, offspring. Your mother is pregnant again.

Espeon: Did you hear the news about mom’s new baby, Em? It’s absolute rubbish, isn’t it?

Missingno: I couldn’t agree more, sister.

 

Ledyba: I wonder if this baby will pop out as perfect heir material. That’d really put you ingrates in your place, wouldn’t it?

Espeon: Did you hear something, brother?

Missingo: Of course not, sister. I was too busy planning the best way to throw our future sibling in the bin when it’s born.

Ledyba: I swear, if any of you readers vote for these nitwits for heir, I will end you all.

The guests are arriving! Hey Bobo, hey Tori!

Torchic: Sup.

Wobbuffet: Boy, have I not missed this place.

This boy is Marcelo, the son of Camerupt and Paras. He’s such a cutie!

Marcelo: I can’t believe I have to waste my Snowflake Day with you dorks…

And so grumpy!

Here’s Deo and Abbie. Looking good, ladies.

Derik, you weren’t invited!

Derik: But I brought sushi 😀

~sigh~ Fine…come on in…

Georgina. When she’s next to her mom like this you can see how alike they look.

And Charmie, rocking some interesting hair and a goofy grin.

Charmander: Did you miss me?

Of course I did! I do so love my Vermilion children.

Nick decided to stand outside in the snow, huffing and puffing, instead of coming inside.

Nick: ~pouts adorably~

I don’t know what your problem is, kiddo. But you can stay out there if you really want to.

Violet Slymer showed up cause she’s married to Camerupt and was therefore his plus one, but her hubby is still nowhere to be found.

Violet: I think he got stuck at home building a snowman. He might not make it.

Darn it! I miss Cammy 😦

Phillip: We have a very colorful family, don’t we dear?

Ledyba: Were you just trying to pun?

Phillip: I don’t…think so?

Ledyba: I am very disappoint. No wonder our daughter turned out so awful. No woohoo for you for the rest of our days.

Phillip: But we’re immortal!

Ledyba: I know.

Phillip D:

Arbok: I’m just going to hide out in here until all those people go away. 😀

But then you’ll miss out on presents.

Arbok: …you drive a hard bargain…

Torchic: Plumbob, I’m sooo hungry…

You know where the kitchen is. You’re free to raid it. I don’t think anyone here would fault you, and if they did I’d just delete their “rude guest” moodlets.

After a while, everyone started gathering in Tari’s room as if it were the most normal thing in the world to do. I honestly didn’t think we’d get around to presents…gotta love these Kantos…

Altaria: Woohoo! My bedroom is hoppin’!

Is that really something to cheer about, honey?

Nick finally decided to come inside. And I think he mistook this for a Spooky Day party…

Nick: Don’t tell me how to live my life.

Essey doesn’t approve.

Espeon: Your costume’s bad and you should feel bad!

You tell him, honey.

Looks like we’re finally gonna get this party started! This house is so not built to hold this many Sims in one location. We’ll build a new one next generation when we move. Not that it’ll look any better you guys saw how crap I was at Phillip’s decorating job.

First present of the night goes to Em.

Missingno: Em is humbled to receive such an honor.

Oh. Good. As if we need more logic objects.

Oh hey, Bernard! If he showed up then I bet Tepig isn’t far behind.

Ditto’s up next.

Ditto: The only screentime I get all chapter is this stupid present so I’d better make it good…

Bernard: This is soooo boring….just open it already!

Good. Exactly what we needed.

Ditto: I am so ashamed…next time will be better, I swear it!

Stupid, dumb Derik found his way into the hallway, then proceeded to complain about how he couldn’t join in on the action in the family room.

Derik: I WANT PRESENTS TOO WHY CAN’T I REACH THEM.

Stop roaming around our house and go back into the main room, you weirdo.

Phillip’s turn.

Phillip: C’mon, Philly needs a new pair of shoes!

Definitely needed another one of those. Really. We shall cherish this gift.

Phillip: You can never have too many easels!

Missingno: Sister.

Espeon: Brother.

Altaria: Let Auntie Tari show you noobs how presents are done.

Yupp. That’s the way.

Altaria: I don’t need your sass!

GAH. SCARY BLUE FACE.

Tepig: Sorry I’m late guys. What’d I miss?

I thought I fixed him but I guess he’s broken again. We’ll just keep him out of the pictures for now.

Oh look, it’s Em’s future wife! Heya Chandra, what’s up?

Chandra: Honestly, I’m too good for this family. I hate having to interact with them so often…

Grumpy as ever, I see.

Arbok: Who needs girls anyways? In a bit, it’ll be my turn and I’ll show those loser siblings of mine how you really do Snowflake Day.

I hope you don’t end up regretting those words.

(Doesn’t he look so smug? I don’t enjoy smug people.)

I guess I forgot to get a picture of Essey’s turn at the pile, but here’s what she got.

Espeon: I tried.

I know you did.

Ledyba: Might as well get this over with.

Leds is so awesome that she gets to stay in her chair and get a present.

Well, not necessarily useful but it’s more interesting than the repeat presents the others have gotten.

Ledyba: You know it is.

 

Arbok: Hey, hey! Look what I got! Look what I got!

Nice, kiddo. Something useful that we don’t have a billion of already.

Arbok: That’s right. Who’s the coolest kid in the family now?

Tori found the kitchen.

Torchic: You bet I did. This party rocks.

He just mooched off of our food all night. Sounds like a blast.

Ummm…wut.

Derik: I don’t know what that pink kid with the cowboy hat is talking about. This party was LAME. All I did was stand in a corner in a completely different room from the party and it was the most boring experience of my life!

Bald Cammy? Is that you?

Camerupt: Hey. What’d I miss?

Bout time you showed up. Thanks for nearly knocking down the front of our house with your car.

Camerupt: I figured since I’m already late, I might as well arrive with a bang.

Phillip: I like this. This is nice. We should have house parties more often, what do you think Auntie Tari?

Altaria: Quiet kid, I’m watching people open their gifts. It’s riviting.

Last present of the night goes to Em.

Missingno: Oh boy, be a good one this time!

WUT.

WUT.

Guys. A glitch gift for a glitch Pokemon.

(And after I typed that sentence my computer froze and I had to restart it…not even kidding you…)

But really though, looks like I have some bad CC to hunt down. I hardly even use any furniture CC, just some decorations and some stuff for kids mostly, so it shouldn’t be too hard to find.

Birthday time! This kid is Stefan, Phillip’s baby brother. He looks just like our Phil, but with pink skin instead of purple. Wonder what Sonny will look like…

Here’s little Javon, Espeon’s future husband. We’ll be speeding up his aging a bit, of course. He appears to have Gumby’s nose and maybe mouth shape, and Daniel’s eye shape and jaw. Loving the red eyes!

And here’s Ichelle, who will be Arbok’s wife. She, too, will be aged faster than normal. She looks to be mostly Angry Beaver, but she does have Jenna’s skin and eye colors and her mouth shape. Looks like we have two more adorable potential legacy spouses!

Josiah became a teen! He can take care of his little sister now should his father pass away soon.

And here’s Kindra Van Gould. The firstborn of Lavender gen is all grown up!

I might as well not even comment at this point.

And finally, this happened. Anybody wanna place any bets as to how long they’ll stay apart this time?

Welp, that’s all for this chapter guys. Just one more chapter and then we’ll have an heir poll! Seems like this generation has gone by really quickly. Is it just me? Well, I’ll see you guys very soon for one last chapter. In the meantime, happy Simming!

5.9: Many Successes

Heya guys! Sorry I’ve been sort of absent lately. And even when I have been posting I haven’t been responding to comments. This semester’s been kind of a collection of mini-heart attacks but it’s over now and I have the whole summer to de-stress!

In the last chapter, Arbok grew into a child and there was sibling rivalry for days. Will something important actually happen in this chapter? Let’s jump right in and find out.

Firstly, BernTep baby! Interesting name choice…

This happened too…we really need to move to a new town after this generation…

Oh look! A happy family breakfast!

Ditto: Who said anything about it being happy?

Espeon: Screw this, I’m going to play with Mien IF.

Arbok: You’ve only used that one ten other times in this legacy.

Missingno: Don’t make fun of Essey, baby brother, or Em will beat you up.

Arbok: Oh, I’m sooo scared.

Ditto: See? Didn’t I tell you?

Ditto: What? You’re taking more pictures of me?

Missingno: How’d you sleep, twin?

Ditto: I slept great, thank you!

Ditto: You’re looking particularly ghastly today, bro.

Missingno: Thanks…I guess? You’re really stretching for screentime, aren’t you twin?

Poor Leds just has a little bit more to go and then she’ll be free to do whatever the heck she wants for the rest of her immortal life.

This picture signifies a very important occurrence.

Autonomous!Tari FTW!!! She did this all on her own and I couldn’t be more proud!

The kiddos brought home this little guy from school. He’s Josiah, the son of Weastoffett, in case you forgot.

Josiah: I don’t like it here…these people are too scary…

I feel ya kid.

Hilary was there too. Hilary is always there…

Phillip: Why aren’t you wearing your generation’s specified color?! You’re a disgrace to this family!

Altaria: Haha, as if I’d listen to the fashion advice of a failed home designer who couldn’t paint to save his life!

Phillip: How dare you say that to me…

What. Never had that moodlet before.

Josiah: Do you wanna build a snowman?

Altaria: Kid. Do you even know how over that is? It’s so last year.

Josiah: Making a snowman is out? What has life come to?…

 

Hilary: The rejection of that stupid kid amuses me. This family is mine, bitch! No one can steal their affections from me!

This is Josiah’s little sister. I think her name is Jeannine. She looks exactly like him but with different coloring.

And here’s our friend Clayton, all grown up.

Phillip: Woohoo time? Your Auntie Tari was so mean to me, I need you to comfort me.

Ledyba: Fine. But we’re gonna have to have paradise in a shower, cause all that chess all day really makes a girl reek.

Phillip: Fine by me.

Ledyba: Well, that was nice. Time for bed.

Phillip: My wife is so cool…

Hilary grew up when she left. She’s certainly a cutie.

Ohhh no. No no no no no. Sorry Ditto, but she’s your distant cousin and I’m not interested in inbreeding.

These two got back together. They’ll have their baby anytime now, so that’s good.

Clayton, not you too! Le sigh…

Maid: Oh, Phillip-senpai…I get butterflies in my stomach whenever I see you…

Phillip: Just ignore the creepy maid, Phil…we’re due for a new one any day now…

Birthday time! My little babies are growing up so fast!

Espeon: Nobody will be able to hold a candle to me once I’m a teen!

Ditto and Missingno: Woo hoo! Go sister!

Arbok: Oh look, a painting. Let me go stare at it for an unnecessary period of time.

Phillip: Stupid, broken dishwasher…

Here’s our little girl! She’s gorgeous.

Espeon: Hell yeah I am.

She rolled charismatic to add to artistic, good, and ambitious. She’s totally a student-body president!

Here are our lovely teens. We’ve got quite a great set of kids this generation, if I do say so myself.

More birthdays! Here is Solomon Mayfield, the child of BernTep! He’s got Bernard’s nose and lips and Tepig’s eyes and coloring.

Here’s newly teenaged Nick, the youngest of Chabbie.

And here’s Chandra as a teen! I think I’ve decided that she’s Em’s potential spouse, and her younger sister will be Ditto’s.

Babies! If Essey and Ari both end up straight, these two will be their future spouses.

YES. SUCCESS.

Ledyba: Finally. Now I’m going to bed.

Of course she got a hearty congratulations from her hubby first.

Missingno: Careful, brother. You never know who might have poisoned your food.

Ditto: Now that you mention it, that sounds like a great idea…

Just another picture of our new teen. She’s just so pretty!

Espeon: That’s right, adore me!

Ledyba: I’m still pretty, right? Tell me I’m still pretty…

Of course you are, dear. Where do you think your daughter got her looks from anyways?

Looks like she might be chained to a skilling item for a while longer…she rolled the wish to discover all of the potions.

One last thing before we close out this update.

Missingno: Em has a weird question for you, sister. Do you like boys or girls?

Espeon: Boys.

Excellent. Javon it is.

Welp, that’s all for this chapter. We have two more chapters before the heir poll, so get pumped! Thanks for reading guys, and as always, happy Simming!
