No "Previously..." for you today bunnies (bunnies?! Sheesh I'm starting to sound like my English teacher!) as I cannot be bothered to do one. I'm tired, okay?!?
This update is obviously going to be about Graham, because he's sexy the new heir.
Kick back, enjoy and be prepared for lots of surprises... and I mean LOTS of surprises.Graham moves back in with his 'Ma and 'Pa, and he is immediately greeted by one HELL of a big change...
...a house that's had a make-over!
Graham gets a make-over too, seeing as those ugly shorts in the style of Benji Long aren't exactly fashionable.
Now he is the sexiest Sim alive.
...or at least in my game, anyway.
Woo! Ryan and Tabitha are back! Hiya guys! :waves:
If you look close enough, you'll see that Tabitha is reading a trashy Romance novel - like mother like daughter, eh?!
Graham logs on to
www.simjobs.com to... well, get himself a job, obviously.
I was hoping this would come up, and luckily for me it does!
I hit "Take Job" without really considering anything else, and Graham becomes a Senior Professor at College.
No sooner has he taken the job and I'm immediately in the Career Rewards catalogue, buying the reward object for the Edumacation career!
This bookcase pwns.
Not only does it speed-up the rate of learning, but it gives you a chance to study ALL of the skill-point areas! That's right, you can learn Cooking, Mechanical, Charisma, Logic, Creativity and Cleaning with this neat little bookcase!
A note to all that have Seasons: Get a job in the Education Career Track and unlock this bookcase.
Your life will be so much easier when it comes to future promotions.
Ryan hates it, and upon pulling a "I-want-to-throw-up-at-the-sight-of-this-bookcase" face he gets a swift kick up the pixely bottom.
He doesn't really, but I wish I could.
Mysterious phone call, ehhh?!
Who 'ya calling, Gray?
GUESS WHO'S BACK!
BACK AGAIN!
BIFF IS BACK!
TELL A FRIEND!
(actually, while you're at it, tell a friend about my Legacy too... more views for me!
)
YAAAYYY BIFF!
*dances*
"Thanks for bringing my dad's cat back, dude... We'll take better care of him this time. Even though I've never seen it before.""OH! And dude, before you go... thanks for not looking at my crotch."(see Part 2 of Generation 1 if you don't get that joke)
Graham is obviously thinking the following (whilst looking at me):
"If this cat DARE rip my funky new outerwear outfit, I will jump out of the screen and kill you, Kate."Biff makes himself home by watching the flashy fish tank.
Wait, what's this?!?!
...
...
Another cat?!
*blinks*
Cookie Fest, meet Chloe the Shorthair tabby cat. Chloe, meet the world of Cookie Fest.
(yes, she does have odd coloured eyes)
Chloe is a
Genius,
She's
Hypazy (the cross between Hyper and Lazy, I should think you all know this by now so I have no idea why I keep reminding you all),
She's
Independly (cross between Independent and Friendly),
She's
Aggardly (cross between Aggressive and Cowardly),
And finally, she's
Finicky.
...And yes, I am planning to make Chloe Biff's lady friend.
Despite there is a large picture of a Pizza slice on the TV screen, Chloe would much prefer to stare at Ryan.
I'd go for the Pizza personally, but each to their own.
Biff impresses Chloe with his "Kung-fu fly in the air" trick.
Despite only being in the house for a few Sim hours, Chloe is already Queen of the kitchen.
Even to this day, Tabitha and Ryan are mad deep in love, yo.
It isn't long until they both become elders.
...And speaking of another couple in mad deep love, yo...
WOO! Go Graham!
Snog her face off m'love, WOOT WOOT!
...Actually, no, wait. Don't do that.
As soon as they both get inside, Graham collapses onto one knee and pulls a magical, shiny ring out of no where.
Just as they'd both fallen in complete and utter love with one another.
Aww.
*squee*
That has to be the quickest marriage, EVER.
It definitely beats Anti's Legacy... teehee! Only joking m'love, you've got a nice story with yours, whereas mine is just... a mess. xD
Anywoo! Cecilia moves into the family and brings a WHOPPING 9,693 Simoleons with her!
Here are her S-to tha-TATS:
Name: Cecilia Barton (now Greene)
Aspiration: Family
Lifetime Want: Become Captain Hero
(yesssss, easy one!)
Sloppy/Neat: 6
Shy/Outgoing: 3
Lazy/Active: 6
Serious/Playful: 4
Grouchy/Nice: 6
Turn ons: Glasses, Brown Hair
Turn off: Fatness
...And this would be one of the big surprises I was telling you to look out for.
Yes,
ANOTHER new house.
I personally find one-floor houses a lot better to navigate round, as having to switch floors all the time in a howevermanystory house you have really gets on my... nerves, to say the least.
I have also come to the conclusion that I move my Sims almost as much as I change my underwear.
(I'm only joking, y'know... I actually don't move them that much, and let me assure you that I change my underwear everyday! Haha, you all SO wanted to know that!)
If you're still reading by the end of this update, in the post directly following it there will be a guided tour - felt like doing one for some reason.
Check out that pond.
Actually, check out all the FISH in that pond.
So, what do the Greene family do as soon as they move in?
Let me paint you a picture:
Chloe immediately beings to destroy a rose bush.
(almost typed rosebud then... *sob* TS1 DAYS!)
Ryan and Tabitha amuse themselves by playing Catch, just as Tabitha's helicopter arrives to take her to work.
Graham complains about the wall being in the way of his and Cee's pillow fight, and finally...
Biff makes his way to the food with a 'drugged-up' expression on his little kitty face.
That kitty has been getting high on too much Cat-Nip.
Cee heads outside to shoo Chloe away from destroying the rosebush, but ALAS! She's too late.
And that leaves fewer rosebushes.
Whoa, I got a chance card right for once?!
Hot damn!
Cecilia stares and burns a hole through Tabitha's head as she was waiting to give Biff a cuddle before Tabitha showed up.
Graham comes home with a promotion!
He becomes a "College Dean of Students".
Graham = nerd
Do I smell the sweet aroma of babies?!
Ryan heads to use the toilet and is absolutely SHOCKED at the sight of seeing Tabitha in the shower.
Ryan, you are an idiot.
You've had WooHoo with the woman on a countless amount of occasions, and you still have to gasp when you see her BUTT-NAKED in the shower.
But - the icing on the top of the cake - Ryan flushes the toilet.
And what happens when a Sim is in the shower and another flushes the toilet?
The Sim in the shower screams and throws a hissy-fit.
Run away Ryan, run away!!!
Meanwhile, in the Kitchen...
"Do you like ice-cream, hunny? I love it. Ice-cream, Ice-cream, Ice-cream. I just can't get enough of the cold creamy stuff!"Judging by the look on Graham's face, I don't think he likes Ice-cream.
Nevertheless, he still thinks Cecilia's attractive.
"WOO! Call me sometime, sweetheart!"Uh, Graham my love... she can't call you, she lives with you.
YOU NERD.
Awwww... the look of love.
*has given that look many-a-time to the lads she crushes on*
Cecilia + Barfing = Pregnancy?!?
The animals went by two by two, hoorah! Hoorah!Ok, not quite two-by-two, but you get the picture.
(I burst into song when I took that picture in game)
*blinks*
Holy...
A Tabyan?
*blinks again*
A Cecibtha?!
*backs away slowly*
Yeah... you hurry up and take off crazy helicopter...
*continues backing away*
Biff is the only one that doesn't have to go to work.
He has the day off.
So Biff sits alone.
On his scratching post.
With his messed-up collar on.
*sigh*
I got another one right?!
Holy shizzle, what is wrong with the world?!
...Wait, not wrong. That should be right!
HELLO YOU 20,000 BIG ONES!
Cecilia returns home from work and does the "I got a promotion" dance, despite the fact she didn't actually get a promotion and simply brought 20,000 Simoleons home instead.
Jesus, that was the girl driving the helicopter!
Man, she gets around.
OI! You! Brown cat thing!
Stop staring at Chloe... she's off limits.
Graham returns home and does the "I got a promotion" dance, despite the fact that he didn't get a promotion and simply brought a friend home from work instead.
BUMP!
Graham heads downtown to "Cold Issue Clothing" to spend the 20,000 Simoleons Cecilia brought home on a few new items of clothing.
I've always wondered why Sims pull a pile of clothes out of the clothing rack when it's so obvious that they should pull out a item of clothing on a clothes hanger.
If an item is hanging on a hanger it isn't folded.
I would not want to be that yellow birdy right now.
I give Ceecee another little make-over, because I felt like it.
Plus she looks a bit better than before; that other dress was getting on my nerves as it had no pregnant state.
All Tabitha does is play with Biff.
:doh:
Surprise number two!
Bet 'ya didn't see that coming!
(kudos to you if you did)
Cookie Fest, meet Boo! Boo, meet the world of Cookie Fest!
Boo is a
Genius,
He's
Hypazy,
He's
Friendly,
He's
Aggardly,
And finally, he's
Finicky.
Cookie Fest, meet Scout. Scout, meet the world of Cookie Fest!
(and yes, both Boo and Scout were named after characters in Harper Lee's, "To Kill A Mockingbird")
Scout is a
Genius,
She's
Hypazy,
She's
Friendly,
She's
Aggardly,
And finally, she's
Finicky.
Seeing the little kitty eating food out of the big dish always tears me up!
It's too adorable for words! :inlove:
BUMP!
Graham = obviously going to have one less finger by the time he's finished playing with Boo
I think Scout is much more cuter than Graham.
POLL: Who thinks Scout is cuter than Graham?
Option 1: ME!
Option 2: NOT ME.
Option 3: Kate smells!
Anyone who votes option 3 will be hunted down and kicked up the butt.
FIIIIIIIIIIGHT!
:zomb:
(have no idea why I felt the need to use the Zombie smiley)
Look!! Scout is in the midst of it!
Poor thing.
Biff defeats Chloe, and Scout quickly trots off.
*waggles finger at Biff*
How could you beat up the mother of your son and daughter?! EHHHH!?
Cecilia cranes her neck just so she can see out of the incredibly high window to watch the rain, whilst Chloe hates on Graham, as he's a nerd.
Chloe doesn't really think Graham's a nerd, he was just using the toilet when she wanted to get in the bathroom.
This happens to be a very dull Spring day as the members of the Greene family head off for another lousy day at work.
If I was Tabitha, I would have thrown a sickie.
Lightning strikes and sets fire to a rosebush.
Man, those bushes are not having a good time in this update, are they?!
Chance card number 3... and I got this one right too?!
GOD I'M GOOD TODAY!
:party:
Tabitha returns home from work at 4PM and pulls a face.
Yes my love, I know it's still raining. It's been raining non-stop since about 7AM this morning.
Deal with it.
Graham, stop being a nerd and doing the "I got a promotion" dance.
You haven't had a promotion recently, so there is NO NEED to do it.
Not a sausage.
*sniff*
It's Ryan's birthday!
Blow out those candles Mister Greene, and get ready to get old!
:party:
Why, hello thar sexy old man!
It's such a shame about the fugly blue tracksuit though...
He deserves much better!
Noticing that Ryan's energy bar is almost in the red, I pan over to his bedroom to find that Chloe is sleeping on his side of the bed.
I'm also too nice to make her move, so Ryan doesn't get to go to bed yet.
Instead he uses the phone in the bathroom (haha, bathroom phone...) to call his job and retire.
He gets a pension of 700 Simoleons per day. Not too bad.
BIRTH TIME!
Note to Graham: You won't be smiling like that when the new 'bub is born, I guarantee you!
"ONOEZ, what on earth have I done to deserve this?!?"You WooHoo-ed, m'love.
Everyone knows that 1 + 1 = 3.
What will the new baby be, a boy or girl?
A clone or non-clone?
...Or might it perhaps be babies?!
How will Boo & Scout look when they both grow up?
Will there be another house move in the next update?Find out next time in Part 3.1 of the Greene Legacy!
