The Warner Legacy: Update 2.6

The last time we saw the Warners, Edith had just gone into labour in the (green) kitchen. Again leaving Christopher at home to look after Phoenix and Normie, she goes to the hospital...



...and comes home with a bouncing baby boy! Another one!
Just look at the happiness on their faces!

Meet Dorian Warner world!

Christopher: I'm so unimpressed about the new baby being a boy that I'm not even going to bother looking at him.



Phoenix arrives home from school the next day...

Phoenix: Dad! DAD! Hiiiiii DAD! I'm home from school!!
Chris: I'm trying to teach Normie how to say "Pen and Ink" son, just in case he wants to be the next Shakespeare. He'll need those items to write his masterpieces.
Normie: Puh...p-pen!
Chris: See? He just needs to master "ink" now...
Phoenix: Well, I didn't exactly get met with enthusiasm there. *sigh* Better do my homework.



Phoenix, clearly bored of homework and being in a house where he gets no attention, rolls a want to visit a community lot. He rides off on his bike to the local football/soccer stadium for - hopefully - some attention from his neighbours and the like.



A young female adult decides to take pity on Phoenix and they both play chase in front of the stadium...lucky Phoenix though, getting to play with an older female!

Does this mean he's going to have lots of luck with the laydees then?



Edith in a taxi...hmmm...what could that mean?

Where is Edith going? Is it serious? Has she split with Chris? Is he fed up with having only male children? Or is there nothing to worry about, and I'm simply stirring up trouble?
Join me next time for some more Warner action!

P.S. For anyone who might be interested, I've updated the Family Tree post on page 1

[Piñacolada]

Aww another boy?! Little harsh that Christopher wouldn't even look at him though.. lol

And poor little Phoenix, i reckon you're right though, he's got the making of a ladies man already!

Love the invisible bike addition...

But whyyyy the taxi?? Tell meeeee!

[Dizzy]

I have a similar problem to the all boy babies only the opposite, so i totally feel your pain, but still so harsh that Christopher would not even look at little Dorian. (which is a very neat name) Besides.. Dorian could be the one to break the weird lip/nose thing going on withe the other children.

Awww.. poor little Phoenix I feel so bad for him.
LMAO... I had a real laugh out loud moment when I got the the invisible bike picture though.. thanks I don't do that much these days.

#shifty# i think you are just trying to stir up trouble with the taxi, but i could be wrong.

[Kate]

Hehehehe...

katie: It was strange when Edith arrived home with Dorian, Chris didn't appear to want to interact with him at all during the first few hours...really odd! He's been such a good daddy so far!

@diz: I seem to remember I had a problem like this with Shell's Cooper Anderson when I was playing him in TS2...I had nothing but boys?! Perhaps it's me! Perhaps EAxis has put a curse on my game to give me huge quantities of male chilluns! hehe.

The invisible bike thing was a last minute, crazy addition...really thought the picture was lacking something. I almost didn't upload it as I thought it was stupid But there ya go, I'm glad it amused you two

As for the taxi thing...you shall have to wait a little longer to find out! Mwahahaha

[Piñacolada]

Ok we waited.. I think this classes as a "little longer" now...

Telll usssss!!

[Dizzy]

Pokes thread... pokes Kate... how much longer??!!

[Kate]

Ehhhhhh I think you've been waiting long enough.

The Warner Legacy: Update 2.7

So, the last time you guys were reading this, you saw Edith head off into a taxi to some unknown destination. Where did she go? I hope you are all itching to find out... (If not then I fail at suspense.)



...And there was nothing to worry about!

Edith is simply taking some time out from her busy family life (not that she does all the work, Christopher seems to be good at that) and has gone to Al Simhara for a few days.

She's allowed us to follow her on her adventures, yay Edith!
(Or yay EAxis for making me follow her.)



While walking the desert (in sky-high heels), Edith discovers a lump of some jade coloured stuff. I would remember the name of it if I hadn't played this update so long ago.



O, hai camel. Fancy seeing you in the desert.



Oh, so I just greeted a cardboard camel? Oops, my bad.

(Hehehe go EAxis, I think this is awesome. Just when you think you've seen a Sim!Camel...it turns out to be a cardboard one.)



Somebody needs to make sure that Edith is sufficiently fed, and that task falls to Nepthy, Edith's new Al Simhara friend.

They both seem to like commenting on each other a lot

Nepthy: Ooooh, your hair is so shiny, it must be those red sparkles you have following you everywhere!



See what I mean?

Edith: My new best friend is great! She compliments me a lot...I think! *half-hearted smile*



Something wicked this way comes...

Oh, wait, whoops, this isn't Shakespeare's Macbeth. Pardon me, I seem to be making a few careless mistakes this update...

THIS PICTURE GIVES ME THE CREEPS.



Edith: The cashier gives me the creeps! Don't make me come here again!

Really? He gives you the creeps? Why? If I were you, I'd be more worried about the statue behind him.

Now, that stone man looks capable of more terrifying things. Just look at that heated glance he has thrown at the cabinet to his left! Man, I wouldn't want to be that cabinet.



...Or alternatively, you could be worried about getting electrocuted to death in a tomb, y'know, while you explore them.

That's already happened? Oh...oh no.

Is Edith ok? Has she been electrocuted to death? If so, will Christopher be angry at me for making him stay at home with the kids? Uh oh, better find me a bullet-proof vest...

Find out in the next update of the Warner Legacy!

[Piñacolada]

Wha?! You can't leave us with another cliff-hanger! Boooo Hissss!!

(The only thing that saved me from rioting after this update is the cardboard camel hehe)

[Dizzy]

WHAT! you come back from a cliff-hanger with ANOTHER cliff-hanger!?

I hope Edith is alright. Although if her tomb exploring adventures are anything like when my sims went they can take quite a few electrocutions and still live

Where is that tomb with the glowing eyes in it.. I have not seen that one before O.O

And I soo love the cardboard cut out things... The camel cracked me up when i first found it in game. There is another cut out in the new EP.. a jackalope down in the swamps

*sits to wait for the next update*
Good news about you updating (and playing around with the new EP) it's making want to get back to my family... should be updating not too long from now.

[Kate]

Hehehe...I wasn't actually intending on making the chapter another cliffhanger! It just happened! I blame my game! *points accusing finger at it*

@diz: The tomb with the glowing eyes takes a bit of exploration. It was hidden away and it was only because I was very bored that I found it Just move around the desert a lot, it might be better to find it in the day (like I did), and then wait until dark

Oooooh I'm going to have to look for that new cardboard cut-out!! Am tempted to move the Warners into Twinbrook, I should enhance one of the swampy houses and make it into a swampy mansion hehe.

Update coming in a bit

[Kate]

The Warner Legacy: Update 2.8

Is Edith alive? Did she incur the wrath of electrocution in the tomb? Or perhaps, after being electrocuted, a Mummy appeared (a la Pokemon) and hit her with a surprise attack!!

Now we shall find out...



...No surprises there, Edith is home safe and sound! Silly Kate, stirring up trouble.

Edith: ...And then I beat off that Mummy with my bare hands! Is that the sort of thing you can write for your assignment, Nixie?
Phoenix: Mum, I am doing my Maths homework. I can't work Mummies into algebra.



Who's that coming over the hill? Is it a monster? IS IT A MONSTER? hiding behind the bushes? And feeling sneaky for doing so?

All answers on a postcard please, the winner will receive a virtual cookie.
(Ok, so this is the easiest Q ever.)



Although I was frightened that Phoenix was about to do a Nick Alto and quote Justin Timberlake at his new (girl!) friend, thankfully little Phoenix didn't go in that direction.

Phoenix: I'm already practising for my future career: Conducting. Just look at these hand movements!



Edith appears to be too busy skilling to see that Phoenix and his new friend, Rebekah, are possibly on their way to becoming BFFs.

Although is that really true? Phoenix seems to have bored Rebekah.



She's really cute too! Bonus points to Phoenix for being such a smoothie.



Every child who has been in the Warner house has found it necessary to touch or play with that rocket...what is it about that rocket? Is it magic?



Phoenix rolled a want to not go to school, so it was up to Edith to give him a friendly push in the right direction.

Edith: Come along Nixie, go to school. You're dangerously close to stepping on my tomato plant.

Meanwhile...



Christopher: Must...push...self...need...muscles...size...of...the...USA...



Well HELL-OOOOO Mr Warner!!

Look at those muscles! I am positively drooling in my chair!
Could we get a few wolf-whistles in here please?
Oh la la!

*faints from overexposure to sexy*


That's all for now...I need to regain consciousness.

P.S. Look guys! No cliff-hanger!

[Piñacolada]

Hehehe muscles = much better ending than cliff-hanger!!

Glad to see Edith is back home safe and well.

[Dizzy]

yay! no cliff hanger!

*snickers* at first i thought you had a picture of the first ever sim bush to have emotions with the bubble.

And holy moly Chris has bee working out a lot O.O

The Warner Legacy: Update 2.9
The 'Lots of Birthday Activity' Edition

Today's update starts off with baby Dorian's birthday.

Despite having the festivities in the kitchen, Edith decides to take Dorian into the living room to let him transition in there

Y'know, Phoenix and Chris, you could have followed! Instead you're celebrating with the cake in the kitchen, sigh.



...Well, I must say that his hair and clothing makes an interesting combination, EAxis. He looks more like a little girl than a little boy.



Here he is! After a little makeover.

Dorian rolled the traits Insane and Good, at least we're starting to differ from the Heavy Sleeper trait both Phoenix and Normie rolled.

The music which gets Dorian in the mood is Pop, he loves to nom nom nom on Frogs Legs (ewwwwwww), and finally his favourite colour is Blue.

However, you probably wouldn't come to that conclusion as for some reason I decided to dress him in the same colours as Phoenix was when he was a toddler. DOH.



Normie gets acquainted with his little brother...or perhaps not, seeing as Dorian is hogging the xylophone Normie wanted to use.

Normie: If I stare at the back of his head long enough, I can telepathically tell him to let me use it?



Edith teaches Dorian his first words, which happen to be spoon and bowl.



Ah, so roles are reversed...Normie's now hogging the block game thingy.

Dorian: Normie's in my waaaaaay...s'not faaaaaaaair!! Oh well, I shall chew on my hand while I wait for him to finish.



And now it's time for Normie's birthday...and for some reason I threw him a birthday party! What possessed me to do that? Now I have a lot of Sims roaming around the Warner residence and I don't even know their names.



...Except I do know the name of this one.

Hi there, young Mrs Crumplebottom!! Hope you're having fun dancing to Normie's favourite Egyptian music.



Normie: If I fart sparkles, will the transition go any faster?



A shirt and tie combo?! Curly hair?!

Seriously Normie, seriously. What have you grown into?



In addition to his other traits, Normie rolls Genius. Ah, I now know why he transitioned into that shirt and tie combo.

He's a cutie! Except my eye default has made his eyes look strange...or is that just me?

That's all for now!

[Piñacolada]

Aww Normie is a cutie! I don't think his eyes look strange. Least now he's aged up he won't be fighting with Dorian over the toys anymore! Where did his hair come from? I'd like it muchly if I ever get chance to play again!
Love that young Mrs Crumplebottom turned up... rocking party you had there! Hehe

[Dizzy]

Awww... Normie is cute and i don't think his eyes looks strange either. *giggles* fart sparkles.

[Kate]

A bit of a boring update today I'm afraid...apologies for being lousy! hehe.

The Warner Legacy: Update 2.10

Girl: Hi! I have no idea why Kate has included me in this update. Especially seeing as she's forgotten my name. It was probably because I remind her of one of her old, real life friends. Plus I'm quite pretty, in a deer-caught-in-the-headlights kind of way.



Normie decides to speak out now that he's a child...

Normie: Boo! You suck! Why can't I get my hair smooth and silky like yours?! Since I am jealous, I will react angrily to you, grrrrr!!



Apparently, according to Edith, a Phoenix Bracelet is the new rage.





Normie: Ugh. Xylophones are so last year. Now that I'm a child, I have moved on to greater things!



I can't remember why I took this picture...?



Normie certainly has moved on to greater things. Now, before he heads to school, he has a tendency to sit in front of the computer to play a quick game of chess.

Looks like he's a bit stuck here though



While out fishing, Chris stumbles upon a gnome!! Yay! My first fishing gnome.



...And here he is! Sleeping Gnome McMulty. In all his gold-coloured goodness. (Also, a special cameo from Edith!)

That's all for now...told you it was a boring update. Better get working on that next one!

[Piñacolada]

Hehe I enjoyed this update! The gnome spiced it up!!

[Dizzy]

I don't think it was boring at all

I loved the picture of Normie saying xylophones are so last year.. was perfect. Gave me a giggle.
And I thought the Phoenix bracelet was quite stylish

[Kae]

I agree with Diz, and I would like to know where you found that stylish Phoenix bracelet.
All the places I go are sold out!
Update for my miraculous return though?
