The Summers Legacy - SAD NEWS

[Kate]

:jawdrop:

Louie, oh you sexy Sim you!!! *looks up at ceiling* God, will you please transform Katie's Sim Louie into a human being and transport him here and make him love me?! OH I SO WOULD! xD

Haha at Aiden's new car - he looks so cute in that little mini!

Holly is a cutie too, I bet she will grow out of those chubby cheeks! I bet she'll be as good looking as her brother too!

Can't wait to see them all in Uni and vote for the next heir (you are doing that, aren't you? )

:update:

[arinthea]

Woo wee Louie's hot, me likey :innocent:
But I want to see what Holly's gonna look like first, I think she's gonna be a real stunner. I'm really sucking at this whole career thing, I've been so involved in getting this family together that poor Tanis only has one friend, guess who.......Jan :jawdrop:
Think he's gonna be a field researcher for the rest of his sim life :irked:

Great update Pina, here's another cookie :cookie:
And coz I'm loving it, have some cake to :bday:

[Piñacolada]

Kate: Hehe! I was pleased with Louie too And yeh i'll hold a vote if thats what the people want! lol

arinthea: Thankyou! Am doing ok with Phoebe's career, but not Aiden's really at the moment, he's struggling to find the time and energy to skill build. Luckily Phoebe already came with loads done. Hopefully now the kids have grown up and can look after themselves I might be able to concentrate on their careers more now.
And thanks so much for the cookie AND cake! *munches* hehe

[Antilife]

yay! That was a really great update! I think there are few mistakes, here and there. Like there was an image mistake, a name mistake, and you repeated a sentence or two. other than that it was really great.

Holly looks really cute. The cheeks have gotten bigger, haven't they? Hmm.....these legacies lead to big cheeks, don't they? The new car is nice and Louie looks nice as a teen. Poor Aiden getting the flue. I'm glad he's better now. ;D oh, and I wanted to ask you, do you know how much money you're raking in?
Just wonderin.....

:update:

[Piñacolada]

Whoops! Thanks for pointing that out anti! That'll teach me to rush and try get an update up before top gear starts lol
I fixed the typos but the picture appears to have disappeared completely for some reason... not sure what happened there! I shall have to fix it by getting a replacement next time am in-game.
Not sure how much money my simmies are making at the moment actually, since Aiden got that massive bonus I haven't had to keep tabs on it much. I'll check that too next time am in-game for ya.

[Dizzy]

Woot! Look at the hawt teen Louie!!! :flirt:

[DejAng3l]

*nods in agreement*.....Louie is H.O.T.T. (hot).....

[Piñacolada]

Hehe thanks you two

*hands you all cookies for all the lovely compliments about my scrummy sim!*
:cookie: :cookie: :cookie: :cookie: :cookie: :cookie: :cookie: :cookie: :cookie: :cookie: :cookie:

No classes for me today, so maybe an update later on today if ya lucky!

[Simmertime]

Loving the story. I like Louie's hair it suits him. My favorite so far is Holly though, she is too cute.

[Piñacolada]

Anti - in answer to your question at the moment Aiden is a congressperson and brings home 840 simoleons a day, and Phoebe is a vice president and brings home 924 simoleons.

Chapter 12 - Off to university

Back in the Summers household, times are changing rapidly.
To catch a moment for posterity, Phoebe decides to paint a portrait of hunky Aiden, so she can remember him when they are old and grey:

Aww, how romantic

After what seems like only a few moments, Louie is all ready to go off into the big wide world of uni. Though not before managing to win the "young entrepeneurs award" scholarship. Go Louie! Aiden got him a job in politics, and he quickly worked his way up to the top. But he wanted to move onto bigger and better things, and get a degree before joining the world of work. So here he is, leaving the for uni:

Aww bye bye Louie!

So that just leaves little Holly left...
Good job she has Cymmi to keep her company!

Aww
And little Douglas too!

And so all is going well for the Summers, prosperous and happy it seems like nothing can touch them...

Hang on.. what the?! Burglar AGAIN?! and its the same dam woman as last time! Dam slack justice system!
Thank goodness they installed a burglar alarm after the first time!
After a quick kerfuffle, the theif is soon apprehended again!

Lets hope she gets a longer prison sentence this time! Dam re-offenders...

In other more happier news, Cymmi has a pretty collar! Yayyy

Check it out while he plays with one of his many toys.
He really feels like a valued member of the family now

Not to be out-done by her older siblings, Holly brings home an A+ report card.

Yehhh go Holly!

And, Phoebe finished Aiden's portrait:

It now hangs pride of place on the wall in the study.

Anyways, time flies by and before you know it... it's Holly's birthday!
Aww the last of the Summers children to grow up Such a sad moment! *sniffle*
Here she is with her cake, mummy and daddy!

Last time you'll be cheering one of your own children you two!
They both seem to be pretty pleased bout that though... maybe they're looking forward to having the house to themselves again?!
And so... here is.... teenage Holly!

Oh yes she grew into those cheeks!

The next day, Holly decides she wants to move straight to college to join her older siblings. But, when she heads over to use the computer, she sees it is broken. No problem she thinks, I'll fix it...

ARGH! HOLLY NOOOO! Do something someone!!

OH MY GODDD! Now its on FIRE!!
Thankfully Phoebe here's the commotion, runs to the phone and calls the fire brigade!

Phew! That's the last time Holly is allowed to try and fix anything around the house!
Quick shower and she's back to her beautiful self...
And so she decides to use the phone to call a repairman to fix the left over charred remains of the computer, and then books herself a place at uni.

Bye bye Holly!

So thats it, all the Summers children are grown up and off at university...
Who will be the next generation heir? You decide!

Burgled?! Again?! Man, the Quinn's haven't been burgled once... I guess I'm quite lucky on that front.

Holly's gorgeous! Poor thing though, electrocuted by the computer... I love when that happens in game though, teehee.

My vote:
HOLLY FOR HEIR

Simply because her stats are much more well balanced and her life-time want is achievable - I would have said Louie (as he's totally hot) but his LTW is virtually impossible and he's not very nice.

:update:

[DejAng3l]

my vote

Holly for Heir

i don't know why....Louie is hot and all...but there's just something about Holly that I like....

[Piñacolada]

Kate: Guess the Quinn's must live in a better neighbourhood than the Summers family! hehe. And yeh it was amusing watching poor Holly being electrocuted! bless her. I shall have a uni update up sometime before thurs hopefully. And your vote for Holly has been registered!

dejang: Thankyou, another vote for Holly has also been registered!

[Kate]

Hehehe, I love that - "your vote has been registered" - it makes it sound like we're voting for the next Prime Minister/President or something

[arinthea]

Holly for heir

Told ya she was gonna be a cutie
Cool so not long now and she be working on gen 3, hee hee can't wait to she what her kids are gonna look like.

Great update :rnrs:
This time I'm gonna be differant and give you an ice-cream instead of a cookie, here ya go :icream:

:update:

[Simmertime]

HOLLY FOR HEIR!

She is so gorgeous! I'm so jealous I hardly ever get really good looking sims in my games.

[Antilife]

YAY! Update! this was a really good update, pina! I loved it all! i can't even say everything i wanted to say! Well, the portrait looks nice! Give my props to phoebie for that! Burgualred again!!!! Total shock! Man those guys are just too damn anoying. Holly looks really nice as a teen!! But poor her, getting electrocuted. I actually have a funny story that happened once. In my game I was playing a family where the dishwasher was fried and splurting water everywhere. So, they called a mechanic over to do the dirty job. (there wasa baby and it was the cooper family ! Like they would ever get there hands dirty doing pety things like that! pshhhhh!)

Anywaym the guy came over, was working on the things for like serveal sims hours, then got shocked. At this point he looks rediculous with his hair all black and his clothes burnt off. Then he goes and does it again. But, this time he sets the house on fire and then the fireman comes over to put it out. *sigh* So, then he tries it again and gets fried agian! So, then he just leaves and takes his money but doesn't finish the job. I hate those stupid mechanics!!!!!!

LOL! Sorry to infest your thread with a stupid anti story. Just wanted to tell my story of those damn mechanics!!! LOL! Ok, so here's my vote......


Holly For Heir!!

1) Cuss she's got good genes
2) cuss she looks the best out of the three
3) She has balanced and good stats
4) her lifetime want is achievable
5) It'd be nice to have a red-head!

[Dizzy]

Me vote Holly For Heir!
Cause she is cute and like Kate said her LTW is actually achievable. And after Kate pointed out that Louie is not very nice. (my my a 1! ) I noticed that Izzy has only a 1 on nice too
And the poor dear got zapped by the compy She deserves to be heir... don't get me wrong I love the other two... and you know we'll want updates on them too but Holly for heir.

The Alabasters haven't been robbed either, nor have they had any fires. *tries to remember if they installed security and fire alarms *

Great update.. can't wait to see what they get up to in Uni.

[Piñacolada]

Kate: Muchos Gracias (was bored of saying "thanks" ). I liked the way it sounded too, and it totally is that important! lol

arinthea: Another vote for Holly ey? Registered! And thankyou *munches ice cream*

Sherry: Merci! Your vote for Holly has been registered also!

Anti: Glad you liked it Phoebe says thanks for complimenting her painting skills! hehe. And yes getting burgled again was annoying! :irked: I like that story, shows the dam useless-ness of NPC sims! Grr lol. Feel free to infest my thread with you anecdotes I register your vote for Holly too!

Dizz: Hehe thankyou for taking the time to come to such a reasoned decision! Your vote for Holly has also been noted!

Thankyou for all your votes guys! We appear to have a run-away winner here lol.
I shall leave it open a bit longer though as the next update probably won't be till weds since I have classes tomorrow.
