The Dulcibella Legacy

Generation 3 Chapter 1

Welcome back!This is the apartment where I’ve started sticking my boring spares. Namely Lydia, and the other six kids from her generation, who I haven’t played since they moved out.And I have no clue why she’s in her athletic wear. Whatever.

Now to more interesting people, aka, the main house!

Welcome home!

David: “What am I supposed to tell Mom and Dad? That my fiancé cheated on me with the cow mascot?”

It’s the cow mascot. There’s no problem. She loves you, not the cow.

David: “Okay. I think I’ll believe you.”

David: “Um, what’s this door?”

Nathan: “My mother started this tradition. This is a place for the current heir only. Just go in, and we’ll all be waiting in the wedding chapel.”

David: “That doesn’t answer my question.”

David: “I don’t get it.”

You just open the door. It’s like normal.

David: “Well no duh.”

On a side note, that is the formal wear he grew up in. I love it.

David: “Oh, it’s got the portraits.”

David: “And the other side of the hall has the spouse portraits. Hmm… They’re smiling across at each other for the rest of the legacy.”

I guess so.

David: “Hey, I made it!”

Girl: “About time.”

Girl: “This is so exciting.”

David: “I can’t do this.”

Girl: “What do you mean?”

David: “I mean I can’t stand up here and marry you. I can’t pretend that everything’s all right.”

Girl: “You have got to be kidding me!”

David: “No. The problem is, I can’t trust you.”

Girl: “But it was the Cow Mascot! It flirts with everyone!”

David: “I know, but it’s more than that. That cow just made me realize that this isn’t going to work. If I can’t trust you’re word on this, how can I trust you on other things. It made me realize that what we have isn’t love.”

Girl: “How can you say that!? How can you throw away our time together like this?”

David: “…”

Girl: “And how could you wait till our wedding day to decide this?”

Girl: “You know what, fine. I don’t want to marry a jerk like you either.”

Slave: “Well that was… unexpected.”

David: “Yeah. I’ll go talk to him.”

Nathan: “David?”

David: “Dad. I-I thought I loved her.”

Nathan: “What changed your mind?”

David: “Something about those portraits seemed to talk to the feelings I was suppressing, or something weird like that. I’m probably imagining it.”

David: “Oh, what do I do now? Was it a mistake?”

Nathan: “You can’t change the past, so there’s no point worrying about it. You can, however change the future.”

After his parents went to bed, David invited one of the members of the secret society over. He needed someone to talk to, that he didn’t know that well.

Morgan: “It’s really late, what do you need?”

David: “I have to tell you something…”

Morgan: “Secrecy is my name, or rather, the society’s name.”

She listened attentively to the whole story. And in the wee hours of the morning it concluded.

David: “You know, Morgan, you’re really sweet.”

Morgan: “Thanks.”

David: “I hardly know you, and this might sound crazy but…”

The next morning.

David: “Morgan, what were we thinking? How did we think this was right?”

Morgan: “I’m not sure. It seemed like such a great idea at 3 in the morning. Now…”

David: “Oh, Dad’s going to kill me.”

Morgan: “Do you think we should stay married? I mean, it was a crazy idea, but…”

David: “I wouldn’t mind giving this a shot, if you want to try.”

Morgan: “Well, why not? I’m already in this pretty deep anyway.”

David: “So, um, Dad. I may have made a poor decision last night.”

Nathan: “Remember what I said?”

David: “Yeah, past and future stuff.”

David: “It’s just that… um… after you went to sleep…”

And he told him.

Nathan: “You’re kidding.”

David: “I wish. But, you see, I wouldn’t mind trying to make this work.”

Nathan: “Okay. You’re a grownup now, and I’ll respect your decisions. Let me tell your mother. I don’t want her strangling you.”

David: “Thanks.”

Morgan: “So, how did he take it?”

David: “Well, actually.”

Morgan: “Are we just fooling ourselves?”

David: “Don’t say that. We may have jumped the gun, but I never lied to you.”

David: “I’m willing to put in the time in to make this work. I want this to work.”

Morgan: “Me too.”

Yay! David found his dream job!

David: “I didn’t realize becoming a general involved becoming an astronaut first.”

Me neither.

Morgan: “Hey, um, I’m pregnant.”

David: “Um, wow, ah.”

Morgan: “Yeah, so much for taking our time.”

David: “You know what, it’s okay.”

David: “I’m actually excited.”

Morgan: “Really?”

David: “Yeah, this will be great.”

Perf: “Hehe. That Grandson of mine works fast.”

Shut up! You‘re ruining the moment!

Slave: “I don’t see how you can be so calm about this.”

Nathan: “What?”

Slave: “Our son married someone he doesn’t even know! Hello!”

Nathan: “And then he showed me how much of an adult he is. He’s a good boy, and she’s a good girl. I’m not worried. Every relationship has it’s bumps.”

Slave: “Well, I guess ours had some of those too.”

Nathan: “I love you Sierra.”

Slave: “I love you too.”

Morgan becomes an official member of the family.

What is it with Dulcibella’s and fire?

Yay, Nathan’s a General and is now permaplat!

Nathan: “The air smells great!”

I couldn’t resist. I love it.

And I love these two! They keep rolling up wants to interact! David actually wished for her. He kept rolling up wants at that door to interact with her, which led to a date, which led to getting married. That bit was almost all them.

David: “Wow! My wife’s giving birth!”

And, unlike his father, he’s actually here for the birth.

Baby Girl! Karigan has her mom’s grey eyes. And Yay, recessive hair! I’m so sick of black hair.

Oh, and to stop myself from what happened last generation, they are only allowed to have two kids from now on. Exceptions involve twins and aliens. And there will be no cheesecaking aliens, either.

David: “Wow! I can’t believe it! I have a baby!”

Karigan: {Grandma’s a popularity sim.}

David: “Oh, isn’t she so cute!”

Morgan: “I know!”

Now that’s commitment.

David: “I love her.”

Okay, what’s the point of this slide again?

Nathan’s so cute! What a great Grandpa! He kept autonomously tucking her in, over and over!

It’s Karigan’s birthday! Babies really don’t stay babies very long, do they?

Isn’t she precious! Of course, she’s my sim, a toddler, and doesn’t have the family nose. So I’m extremely biased.

David: “No, walk. Walk.”

Karigan: “Wak Wak!”

It seems like the nose likes to eat hamburgers.

David: “That’s kind of disturbing.”

Morgan: “Teddy bear.”

Karigan: “No! No beaw!”

Morgan: “But their cute.”

Karigan: “No!”

Something tells me this pregnancy was on purpose.

Guess who escaped from the nursery. Yup, it was definitely David. Just kidding.

Mehehe. Name Thief got nailed by a water balloon. In the winter. Hehe.

And who’s nailing her with balloons? Why Grandpa Nathan! He hits her nearly every time, and hard. Um, Nathan, you do realize you inherited your mothers 10 nice points, right?

Nathan: “Water balloon fights aren’t nice.”

Ooookay.

Slave lives at the ballet bar. She does little else.

Get him off the lot, now.

Slave: “With pleasure.”

David: “I invited a few college friends over.”

Morgan: “A few?”

David: “Yeah.”

I’m excited to see this face!

Apologies for the poor angle. Lots of people and a table in the way.

Yay, she’s not a clone of her mother! I was a tad worried...

Karigan: “Look how big my hands are!”

Yeah, that’s been said before. Now go change.

Obligatory makeover shot.

Really? The hallway? Really?

Morgan: “Shut up!”

And it’s another Girl. And I forgot to roll the pacifier, so I have a feeling this is Karigan’s Pacifier twin…I also don’t remember when I saved last, so I can’t re-enter the lot to fix it. Blech.Anyway, her name is Estora.

Nathan: “Hello little one.”

Karigan: “I’m not little. I have a baby sister now.”

Nathan: “That you do.”

Karigan: “Grandma! I don’t like being tickled!”

Slave: “Too bad!”

Karigan: “What is it with you two being all touchy feely all of a sudden?”

David: “Hey Dad, why is everyone out here?”

Nathan: “Well, your mother and I are dying today.”

Morgan: “I’ll miss you! Thank you for welcoming me in to your family. I’m very thankful.”

David: “Mom, how can you guys be so calm about this?”

Slave: “It’s just part of life. What’s to freak out about? I mean, you’ll see me in a few days giving you a bladder failure.”

David: “Um… thanks mom.”

Karigan: “Look what I can do!”

Slave: “Woot! Go Karigan!”

There he is. Very dramatic, with the whole dark trail. I’ve never noticed that before.

It’s funny. Death isn’t the sad part. It’s watching all of the sims cry over it that’s sad.

What I was going to write on the this slide would be very insensitive, so I won’t.

Slave: “It’s not fair! A few more days were added to my life bar, so I can’t be with him right away!”

It’s okay. *pat pat*

Okay, so I’m really bad at these slides. This is where I’m supposed to be all touchy feely and be sad that my sim is gone.

Frankly though, he was just a permaplat elder that had no purpose anymore. Ouch, that was harsh. He also effectively stole his brother’s girlfriend in college, though she was supposed to be his right from the start and his brother was the one who decided to autonomously fall in love with her. He was, however, very understanding with his son’s marriage speed bumps. RIP

Um, guys, why’s Estora on the floor in the bathroom?

Really? I was sort of looking forward to just the two girls in the house, since I seem to be lacking in the girl department at the moment.Come on David! Do you know how long it took me to get your father abducted? And you go and stargaze on free will for one night and get abducted? Not cool.

Karigan: “Daddy just got abducted by aliens.”

Morgan: “I know. This is a terrible memory, isn’t it.”

Karigan: “Yeah!”

Says the sims with giant grins on their faces.

Karigan: “Daddy, where are you?”

Um, why is the stool on your head?

Karigan: “It’s my space helmet.”

Karigan: “Daddy’s home!”

Hmm… David, that position looks like what the sims in sims 4 do when they pass out from sleep deprivation.

Karigan thinks her father’s pain is hilarious. Child, how many nice points do you have?

Karigan: “Six.”

Someone needs to explain to this family what nice points mean.

David: “Why was that necessary?”

It wasn’t. You’re the one who was autonomously stargazing, remember?

David: “Oh, yeah.”

Morgan: “I’m so happy you’re okay! I love you so much!”

David: “I love you.”

Nuff cheese, moving on.

Sorry Estora, I don’t feel like getting everyone out of bed, so it’s just grandma.

And the verdict. Estora is indeed Karigan’s pacifier twin. Darn it. So I guess it’s a good thing there’s going to be an alien. I’ll actually have two different sims to choose from. But, choosing between Karigan and Estora, that will be hard.

David: “Oh, I’m pregnant.”

Morgan: “This is just weird.”

David: “Amen.”

Slave: “What’s that up there?”

Um, you might want to look right in front of you.

Slave: “Oh, there you are. About time you showed up. I’ve been waiting for two days!”

And it appears only your friend that you always brought home from work came to cry for you. Sorry about that, everyone else is asleep.

Ah, Slave, I like you a lot. You were so much fun. I now like cheerleaders a lot. I expect to see you in your llama mascot costume haunting soon.

Your real name was Sierra, and I will forever miss forcing you to clean the Greek House bathroom.

David: “Hey there cute doggy. Where do you belong?”

David: “Ouch!”

David: “Stupid dog! Better not have rabis.”

David: “I feel kind of funny now…”

David: “What’s happening?”

David: “Rawr.”

College person: “What’s this dog’s problem?”

David: “Mmm, burnt omelets. My favorite.”

Morgan: “Can we cure him yet?”

No, not yet.

David: “Owieee! I’m gonna die!”

Morgan: “Don’t be such a wuss.”

I support Morgan.

It’s a little baby boy! And I think his alien daddy is the blond one. Sweet, I haven’t seen what the children of that one look like yet!

… I just realized that I’ve been referring to multiple pollinition technitions without explaining. I’m using the hack for that that Keika sort of made. She may have followed a guide and made the aliens. Ask her for specifics if you want to know.

I think Estora has something against the nursery. She’s never in there.

Anyway, this is getting up there in slides, so I’ll leave off here. Happy simming!
