The Summers Legacy - SAD NEWS

[Antilife]

OMG! It's another supa cool update! What do you know? Haha!

I thought it was hilarous that Mia was very pissy towards her mom. Jeez, you expect her to be gracious. You may be an adult, Mia, but you still have loving parents! Ok, eww! What is with the gypsy lady? Is she half way retarted? Just eww~oh and the cow certainly doesn't make it better. that was gross! This uni family seems to have girl falling head over heels for them. And that's not a good thing either.... :mindblow:

Hmmm....gabe doesn't look half bad. Haha! The snake shirt is hilarious. And the buckle! Haha! :mindblow: What's with the pineapple? ahah! :rofl: They look nice as adults. Except-ofcourse- the little things here and there. Imogen's tatts look really cool. I hope you keep us update on her especially! Well, Eliza looks great! Wait.....why wouldn't she?

:update:

[Piñacolada]

Thanks anti

Yeah Mia is a meanie! hehe. And yes i think the gypsy lady is most definitely on the way to being retarted! Dam woman never sends anyone 1/2 decent usually. Yes the cow is disgusting! After the belching incident it ran round and set off all the sprinklers in the place, stupid thing!
Yes the pineapple lol. I was looking for a black shape to cover up that poor sims modesty and what can i say... that amused me! hehe.
Thanks, they didn't turn out too bad did they? (Well maybe if you ignore Mia and Jake anyways... lol).

I actually have the next update written already
Buttt i might leave you in suspense a little longer... hehe. Doesn't feel like 5 mins since I posted that one!

[Piñacolada]

*sticks tongue out at Kate*

My internet is being slower than a snail dammit! Sorry, i honestly don't mean to be keeping you in suspense this much lol.
One more pic to go!

By the way, this update was gonna be longer..... but then I decided to be mean and chop it coz I needed to go shopping for something for mothers day lol.
Mayyybe I shall add a little bit extra on the next one to make up for it!

[Piñacolada]

*Phew* finally done! Sorry bout the wait guys, hope its worth it lol

3.1 - A new start

Back in the Summers household Eliza has settled back in well. She didn't move back into her own room, but had a brand new double bed bought for her and put in the twins room as it was much bigger.
Speaking of the twins, they moved in together in a little house just across the street. Don't think we'll be hearing from Eliza's brother Jake though... he's moved to another town. (And taken
his fugly lip curse with him i hope! hehe).

The first thing Eliza did when she got back home was take a trip to the pet shop. She was delighted to be back home with Zeke and decided to treat him with a lovely shiney collar for being such a good pet.

Woo work it Zeke! Doesn't he look swish?! hehe.

Next Eliza knew she had to solve the ultimate dilemma.. who was she going to spend the rest of her little simmmy days with?!
Torn between Randy and Gabe (sorry Destrey but that nose has had quite enough appearance in this legacy just on your face! There is NO Way its getting into any of my sim kiddies genes!) she decided to invite them both over at the same time, to compare!
They both arrived on time.... Hmm.. so they're both punctual...

She stood there staring from one to the other...
When suddenly she decided...

Woo yeah goo Randy!

Must have been those thrusting movements he was making to demonstrate how good a skiier he is ey Eliza?! lol.

And so Eliza decides the next step clearly must be to go for a romantic meal with Randy boy. She ditches old snake-skin and jumps in Holly's lovely flash mini (without her permission!) and they head off to a quiet little cafe by the lake.
Holly picks a table outside on the decking, so they can enjoy their meal with beautiful scenery.

They are having a lovely time when... dun dun dunnnn! Eliza's stalker turns up!!
No kidding, he was there when Eliza went to the pet shop... then he was hanging around outside her house and ringing her doorbell while she was trying to decide between Randy and Gabe.. and now here he is on her date??!
Meet the culprit people...

Gilbert My-last-name-is-Jacket-even-though-I-don't-wear-one! *horror scream*
But luckily, Eliza was saved... by Rover!! lol.
The reason I noticed Gilbert turning up at the date was coz I heard this manic woofing, looked just to the left of the table she was sat at and saw this:

Yeahh go rover! Sick him!!
The woofing and arm waving was proceeded by Rover chasing Gilbert T-Shirt out of the vicinity of the date!
Woo good doggy Rover!
Anyyyways, this didn't seem to distract Eliza and Randy from having a good time, and the date ended with a lot of smooching back at Eliza's! hehe.

When Randy goes to leave, Eliza realises that... she has fallen in love with him!

Awww! And she cannot bear the thought of him ever leaving.. she wants to spend the rest of her simmy life with him and have his baaaabiieesss!
So she asks him to move in there and then!
Luckily, this doesn't scare Randy off (strange boy ) and he glady accepts!

He brings just over 17,000 simoleons to the family (whoah!).
He is a gemini.
And his stats are:

Sloppy/neat: 4
Shy/outgoing: 7
Lazy/active: 8
Serious/playful: 3
Grouchy/nice: 3

He is a fortune aspiration.
And his lifetime want is to become a criminal mastermind. Not another one in the family! Ahh!
Well too late to back out now I suppose... Eliza seems smitten!
He works as an executive chef at the moment though, so I'll soon have to find him a job in the criminal career...

Here he is after a make-over:

Much better hair! Lets hope he makes cute babies!!

Meanwhile, Eliza rolls a want to get a job... in the law enforcement career! Sure thats a good idea with two criminals in the family?! Meh.. what the lady wants, the lady gets!
Soo, say hello to Eliza the SWAT team leader!

Hehe.
Lets hope her daddy and hubby-to-be don't get her in trouble at work!

Yep that's right, I said "hubby-to-be", wasn't a slip up, they are now officially engaged!

Awwww!

Will they be married soon?
Are there already babies on they way?
If there are - what will they look like?!
All this and more, coming your way in the next exciting installment! hehe

[Piñacolada]

Whoops just realised I forgot to re-size the last pic! Ahh well, enjoy a biiig pic until I can be bothered to open up my photo editing thing again.. and my internet speed returns from the dark ages! lol

[Dizzy]

Nice update! And yes.. worth the wait

That's great that she finally picked one and they are already engaged... woohoo!! I am sure he will make nice babies (he lookes like the standard nice face of maxis.
Did he come with anything in his inventory?

[Piñacolada]

Hehe yay thanks Dizz.

Yup enagaged already, those family sims sure do move fast! hehe. Better dust off your wedding hat!
Here's hoping you're right bout the babies thing. *fingers crossed*.
Yeah he had a few things in his inventory actually... a neon standing light, a fountain and a poker table from what i remember! There were a couple more things not so good too. I may have to make a games room to stick the poker table in.. hmmm :scratchchin:

[Antilife]

OMG! Another update? Jeez, i don't know if I can give you another comment. Who cares! your updates are so good, I can post anytime anywhere! Haha!

GO ZEKE! Work that colar! Haha! :rofl: He looks so cute with it on. That pic with her and the two guys is sooooo funny! "So, Eliza.....who will you give the flower to this week? And who will go home?" Haha!

Wow! randy? Cool! The date looks cute and.......who's that? Mister stalkier! Leave them alone! Aww.....moving in already? He looks good with the make-over. I don't know if I really like his stats or ltw. Seems well.....repetitive.

*gasp* Engagent already? Wow these two move really fast! Haha! I think the last pic looks nice. it adds to the effect. How do you get your pics different sizes anyway?

:update:

[Shell]

I fianlly got around to reading and finishing your Legacy Colada. Loving it so far. 'Rip to the founder!' (he was a hottie!)
Cant wait to see how Eliza goes with carrying on the legacy...

[Kate]

Wooo, I'm a bit late as I said I would read it last night, but then I got carried away with watching the Comic Relief version of Top Gear!

I have a little question for you Katie... do you name some of your Simmies (and Pets) after Lost characters? Or is it coincidental?

Back to commenting on the Legacy now... ehehe. I'm glad Eliza didn't chose Mr. I-Like-Snake-Skin-Jackets! Randy's hot, shame about the Lifetime Want... oh well, it's easily achievable and I bet Eliza and his babies will be the smex!

Haha at Rover barking at Gilbert... Go dog, woo!

Engagement was fast, but hey - more time to make babies! Can't wait to see their kiddies.

:update: !

[Piñacolada]

Anti: Yup another update! Dizzy's fault, was gonna keep it back for a bit but she forced me! lol.
Yeah I was annoyed at his life-time want being the same as Connnor's, but as far as I know there's no way of telling before you move them in? And I couldn't take him away from Eliza after I knew, she already rolled the want to get engaged to him!
I screen-shot my pics.. would like to use fraps but for some reason it messes up my tab option I can tab out but not back in to game play when I use it... Anyways, I take screenshots and then re-size them in a photoshoppy programme so they're not too big so the thread doesn't take ages to load.

Shell: Aww yay thankyou! And yes... *sniffle* Aiden shall be missed! Hope his great-grandkids are gonna be smexy enough to carry on his memory! Hehe.

Kate: Haha yeah the comic relief top gear was ace wasn't it?! With mcfly!! :inlove: Wooooo!!! Lol.
Err.. complete coincidence! Actually, I do watch it, and I see that now! But it was a coincidence... guess I must have been subconsciously influenced somehow lol.
Yeah I was annoyed bout the life time want being the same, as I said to anti.. but there was no way I could find out. And he doesn't look bad after a make-over does he?! Hehe. Come onn hot simmies!
Loved the Rover attacking Gilbert bit.. strange stalking sim! *creeped out*.
Yes I know it was quick but I was bored ok lol. And besides, you know what family sims are like! They wanna get married after they known the bloke like 2 seconds!

Got a busy day ahead of me today... but maybe an update tomorrow if ya lucky

[arinthea]

I think Randy and Eliza are gonna make some real cute kiddies. Hee hee I really laughed at the careers these sims have, talk about a conflict :rofl:

So Eliza has a stalker to, these stalker sims, sheesh. Yeah Jan still stalks Tanis to today :pan:

Great update Pina, we want more :bouncy:
:update:

[Piñacolada]

Thanks arinthea!

Hehe yeah I laughed at their career choices, one wants to live the life of crim while the other one fights it, typical!

Stalker sims are creepy

Had another busy day today, but I did a little bit for the next update. As long as I get this stupid play read that I have to read for class it shall be up tomorrow.

[Piñacolada]

3.2 - Encounters

(A note - I have changed the default eyes I used as I did not like the green colour of the ones I used to use. So if any of my sims seem to have changed eye colour in this update - that's why. And Randy looks much better with these new ones!)

Back in the Summers household there's a wedding to be had!
Welcome to the joining of Eliza and Randy:

Awww
Yup I decided to go all out for this wedding, held in the garden in the sunshine with flowers and a proper dress and everything!
Only the best for my sims

In other news... Phoebe has been a very hard-working elder and has managed to maximise all of her skills!

Yehhh go Pheebs!

Whereas Connor has been an idiot and managed to break the trash-compactor
He did get a lecture off Eliza for it though:

And then off Holly!

Bless him! Guess he won't be doing that again in a hurry...

Holly has had a shock!

Yup she spotted ghost Cymmi wandering around the house! Luckily being a knowledge sim Holly wasn't too distaught and actually seemed to quite enjoy the experience. She now keeps rolling the want to see more ghosts. Crazy sim!

Speaking of ghosts, I have for you now, a lovely heart-warming pic! Wait for it...

Awww Aiden and Cymmi reuinted!!
Despite Aiden not having a tombstone thanks to my game messing up, I was down in Phoebe's basement flat when I heard spooky music... a quick scan showed me that ghost Cymmi was outside.. and then I spotted him, my Aiden! Awww.
He wandered outside just after that and straight over to Cymmi's gravestone. Cymmi then wandered up, they looked at each other for a second and then Aiden got out a cat-teaser and started playing! So cute!
I never seen ghosts interact like that before in my game...


That's Zeke following Aiden round the garden... I looked in the queue and he had the action "watch".
Bless him, he must miss Aiden, remembering that he's the one who brought him into the family...


And that's Randy not being quite so pleased to see Aiden! Wonder if he's regretting his decision to join the family now he knows Eliza's grandad is still hanging around

Anyways enough of the spooky-ness, its birthday time again!
And itsss...

Connor's turn!
Yup time for you to get old matey!
After a quick make-over we have:

OAC! (Old Aged Connor!).
He seems to be quite happy about it! Not sure I would be if I had that nose lol.
Poor Holly.. being all young and pretty with an old fogie husband...
Mind you, not for long, will soon be her birthday!

Sad news now, we're about to lose another member of the family



...




...






Goodbye Phoebe!
Thanks for giving me such pretty sim children to carry on Aiden's legacy!
At least you two can be back together again now
(Sorry about the terrible pic again.. the stupid grim reaper seems to like taking my sims from me when they've just finished using the bathroom! )
Unlike Aiden, I actually did get a tombstone for Phoebe. So I have placed it in the garden next to Cymmi's.
RIP Phoebe

But, to soften the blow slightly... we may have lost one member... but...
There's another on the way!
Yup, Eliza is pregnant!


Let's hope she has a cute little baby!

Want to know what Eliza gives birth too?
And what Holly looks like as an elder?
All this and more in the next update!

[Kate]

WOO! *whistles at Connor* Oh boy, you sexy old man, you! But he broke the trash-compactor so maybe he shouldn't be worthy of a whistle... don't you just hate when all of the Sims in the household want to lecture another Sim just for doing a little something wrong?

I break and spill things all of the time because I'm so clumsy, but I don't get lectured about it every five minutes!

Holly's face in the picture of her seeing the ghost is a hoot... just look at that wide-open mouth, ehehehe!

I'm sad to see Phoebe go... but I guess we all have to move on, and I bet you have a nice shiny platinum grave for her. She will be missed. *grabs tissue*

:update: ! Ehehehe!

[Piñacolada]

Haha yeah I always feel sorry for my sims getting lectured Kate, if that happened in real life I'd permanently have someone running around after me wagging their finger!
He was only trying to be helpful and take the trash out bless him...

Yeah I love that pic of Holly, made me giggle! hehe.

Phoebe dying was sad... but not quite as sad as when Aiden went, think I was more attatched to him since I made him... And yup she does have a lovely platinum gravestone since she managed to reach her life-time want. I was sure I took a pic of it to put in the update but I guess not.. Might put one in the next one instead!
