The Dulcibella Legacy

Generation 3 Chapter 2

Welcome back to the Dulcibella Legacy, where the toddlers are free range.

Estora: “Birfday!”

Seriously Estora, go back to the nursery.

Estora: “No!”

There are also unintentional alien children.

Huh, I’ve never seen this fear before.

Have an accident at a party? That’s pretty specific. Who worries about those sorts of things?

Also, I’m wondering why she has the full college panel. Joey didn’t when he came from uni. Slave did, but that’s because I played her through college. I’m confused.

Seriously, Estora, there’s a nursery for a reason.

Estora: “No!”

David: “Can I eat the cake? Can I eat the whole cake?”

Estora: “No!”

You heard her.

I just love this half circle that forms around the birthday person during parties. So cool. Oh, Estora’s behind the table.

Karigan: “Yay, I’ll have someone to play with!”

Karigan: “Daddy, why does she look just like me?”

David: “She’s your sister. Of course she looks like you.”

Karigan: “No, I mean she looks just like me.”

*sigh* yeah, those two are pacifier twins. Stupid game.

Here is her makeover shot. I also have a feeling she will never be where she should be. *sigh*

Estora, I think you’re freaking him out.

Estora: “Why?”

Well, if someone stared at you unmoving for a sim hour, wouldn’t you be uncomfortable?

Hey, the birthday cake’s all gone! That never happens!

Karigan: “This is what happens when there’s a werewolf in the house.”

Estora: “First day of School, first day of school!”

And it’s finally F’ryan’s birthday. Honestly, he was born at 9 in the morning, so it feels like he’s been a baby for forever!

I think he looks like his alien daddy, but he didn’t get his pointy ears. Really game? I want pointy ears!

It’s funny, I didn’t mess with the girl’s pjs, but they both have the color I put them in for Everyday.

Estora: “We’re smart like that.”

I’ll say.

Wait, who told you to clean?

Estora: “My one neat point.”

Honestly, my one neat point sims love cleaning more than the ones with a lot. This makes no sense.

Holy cow, more pink!

Estora: “I’m a fairy princess.”

Great idea guys. Cover up the training potty smell with garbage smell. Someone please take care of this before roaches come. I hate roaches.

Great, another run away toddler.

Karigan’s growing up. Can’t believe she’s a teenager already.

No. You need to change. Now.

Karigan: “What’s wrong with the fish nets?”

Exactly. You just had to roll romance, didn’t you.

Karigan: “Yup.”

Here’s her makeover. You know, she just doesn’t feel like the cheating romance sim. I think she’ll find her match and be happy. Maybe. And I still need a romance plat stone. So, we’ll see. It depends on what Estora rolls.

Wait, what’s that noise? It sounds like…

… an alien abduction.

I hate you. I didn’t even know he was on the telescope! David, you do realize that you are a Popularity sim, right? Not a knowledge sim? And you know that everyone in the house gets a bad memory whenever you’re abducted, right?

At least this time your daughter is actually worried about you. She and Karigan may be Pacifier twins, but they are in no way identical.

Um, why are you posing right after getting out of bed?

Karigan: “A romance sim must always be ready in case that is the day she will meet her one true love.”

Do you know what a romance sim is?And thankfully her lifetime want is a career. *phew*

Oh, not you again. Morgan, why did you have to bring her home?

Samantha: “Hey, if you hate me so much, stop putting your sims in education.”

Not exactly my choice. Life time wants.

Sorry, you can’t have him.

Karigan: “Why not?”

I’m pretty sure he’s a vacation townie, and those long distance relationships are a pain.

What did I just say?

Karigan: “Meh, I just wanted to flirt. I’m good now. He can go away.”

Hey look, Slave’s finally haunting. Is that suspicious puddle in the hallway because of you?

Slave: “No, I wasn’t haunting last night.”

Okay, it was the nanny then. Everything's her fault.

David: “Not again.”

Your own fault.

Eew, gross! You do realize you have a full fridge, right?

David: “nom nom, garbage cake!”

Eew. I can honestly say I’ve never seen this interaction before, and hope to never see it again.

Karigan: “Yay, I get to twirl my little brother!”

Yay, no more diapers, if only for a few days. *cry*

F’ryan: “Yay, I grew up in a dragon suit. Plus 1,000 aspiration!”

Hehe. I almost want to leave him in that.

Oh, and David has had is telescope privileges revoked. I’ve set it up so that everyone except him can access it. I’m going to move their dance sphere into here soon too. I don’t need another alien, that’s for sure.

Karigan: “I love being a romance sim.”

Oh, hey, it’s creepy goth Tricou teen.

Baby time! And this IS the last one.

Here he is! He has one of the female alien parents, but not the face 1 one. I haven’t seen her kids either, and she has red hair. I can’t tell what color Alton has at this point. Too dark. Though, I’m pretty sure he’s blond.

Karigan: “Dad, get off of me, what’s your problem?”

David: “I don’t know! The mouse told me to.”

Karigan: “Really?”

Yup. Now your dad can be cured.

Karigan: “This sucks.”

CG: “You came on a date in your pajamas?”

Karigan: “Yeah, I had a lot on my mind.”

CG: “Like what?”

Karigan: “Can’t you tell?”

CG: “I can’t read your mind. All I see is this attractive girl in her PJs.”

Karigan: “Um, thanks?”

David: “This looks really suspicious.”

Down the hatch!

David: “Fine.”

David: “What? I’m not furry. It’s the middle of the night and I’m not furry. I’ve been cured! Woot! Victory spin on the dance sphere!”

Sorry, but no. No dance sphere.

David: “Awww…”

Yay Morgan. You just got permaplat, what are you going to do next.

Morgan: “I’m going to run into the door since I’m so exhausted, and then I’m going to get some sleep.”

Estora: “It’s my birthday!”

And Alton’s birthday too.

Estora: “No!”

Are we really going to go back to your toddler years?

Estora: “This outfit isn’t pink. In fact it’s the opposite of me. Can I go change now?”

Go ahead.

Pleasure sim huh.

Estora: “Yup.”

I wonder what would happen if you stuck your head in a renuyu orb while in low aspiration.

Estora: “Please don’t joke about these things.”

Who’s joking?

Yay, Alton’s growing up.

*yawn*

Aw, he’s cute even if his face is squiffy.

But then, you know, my sim, very biased, yata yata.

Note to self: Energizer and green aspiration don’t mix.

You’d think I’d know that by now.

Meet the butler. Too many service sims running around to keep this house afloat for me. And honestly, this family has the dough to support a butler.

Karigan Dulcibella! I told you no!

Karigan: “Too bad. It’s okay, though, I’m going to college today so I’ll completely forget about him.”

I’m supposed to be the one saying that.

Karigan: “Too late.”

Meh, might as well get her first kiss now. That’s only been locked since she aged up.

BUTLER! Why do you have to be a real member of the family?

Estora: “What’s this?”

Stick your head in it.

Estora: “Um, okay?”

Estora: “Mmmm…. you know what sounds really good right now?”

Cheese?

Estora: “Yeah.”

F’ryan: “Bye Karigan.”

Karigan: “Bye F’ryan.”

Woops, forgot his birthday. It’s 10am the next day. I sort of feel sorry for this kid. He’s sort of the forgotten one. But then, it’s my fault he’s forgotten.

I love those pjs.He’s cute in his own way, but definitely not prettacy material. I’m scared of what he’ll look like when he grows up. *shudder*

The next day it’s F’ryan’s turn.

Alton: “Ah! Great-Grandpa Joey!”

There seems to be a lot of scaring… There might be a moat later in the backyard.

Alton: “Ah! Great-Grandma Serene!”

You don’t really need to scream boo to scare people, do you Serene?

The moat becoming more and more plausible now…

I like him. Doesn’t mean I’m going to pick him as an heir, but I like him. This is his straight face, not sad face. The eyebrows. I look at him and I almost want to cry because he looks so sad. (Which is why he isn’t heir. I don’t want a bunch more sims who look depressed.)

… that’s it. Once everyone is back in their graves I am building a moat. I can’t take this anymore, and I know it will only get worse.

F’ryan: “Hey, um, dad?”

David: “Yes?”

F’ryan: “That is really unmanly.”

David: “Plenty of guys do ballet.”

F’ryan: “But you’re my dad.”

Wow. I’m surprised. Fourth Gen is heading to college and none of the shower stall doors have glitched open yet. That’s so weird.

Alton: “Wow dad. I think you might burn the house down with that many candles.”

David: “Can we just skip this birthday? I’d rather live forever.”

Too bad. I don’t play like that. No elixir for you.

David: “And butler, would you please stop cooking!”

Butler: “My coding says I need to.”

*sigh* that’s right. The mod that greatly reduces his cooking doesn’t work on the first one hired after installation. Time to fire him and get a new one.

David: “There, I’m older. Happy?”

Yes, yes I am.

Your want panel says you want a facelift. And I have to say I’ve never seen that want either.

David: “What? Can’t an elder want to look good.”

No.

Okay, so I forgot to build that moat. And sheesh, all four of my dead sims are haunting. Come on, give my poor sims a break!

Take that ghosts!

Estora: “Haha, take that bus, I’m not getting on you anymore! I’m going to college! And I’m going to eat more grilled cheese!”

Morgan: “My turn? I’m not excited about this either.”

I’m not sure that anyone is.

And you are definitely changing.

Alton: “Wow, she’s old.”

*snicker*

I can see his nose through the table. Hehe.

David: “So why is my uniform my everyday now?”

… you don’t want to know.

David: “No, I really do.”

Um… Because I thought it would be fun to have a ghost roaming around in the uniform.”

David: “Oh. That’s… grim.”

… Buuutler! Seriously, stop wasting my food!

Really? More? Who is so hungry that you have to keep cooking?

Think this will work? The gate is locked to only allow household. I might need to add another gate in the future, though.

Oops. I got caught up in the cooking of the butler and forgot to get Alton a cake. Now he has grown up and needs to change his shirt. Green on green just doesn’t work.

…wow.

Alton: “What?”

Your face is actually less squiffy than it was as a child. That’s so weird. You actually grew into your face. That doesn’t happen very often.

Alton: “Um, thanks?”

I’m a bit late on sending him to college… oops?

David: “Have a good time!”

F’ryan: “I will!”

David: “Hi Estora! No, everything's all right. No, I’m not dying. I just wanted to call and let you know that I’ve picked you as the heiress. Yes there is cheese involved.”

David: “Hey, this gates in my way!”

I know. But, seeing as you’re an elder, and can’t get alien pregnant, I’ll unlock them all.

David: “Thanks.”

P.S. The gate for the fridge didn’t work. Stupid Butler.

Yay! I put simselves in my game a few slides ago, because they are all pretty and they all look different. I’m hoping to get a bit of genetic diversity going, while still hoping to end with the gorgeous sims.

Gabie here is the first one to show up!

And she promptly goes straight to the dance sphere for a dose of fail.

Oh. It’s summer. Oops?

Morgan: “His nose is dry! Making it wet should help!”

Um, Morgan, I think that only works for animals.

Morgan: “I know. I’m making a joke for your slide.”

Um, thanks?

David: “My head hurts.”

I said I was sorry…

And Gabie didn’t learn her lesson the first time.

Gabie: “Why can’t you give me some body points?”

I think that might be against the rules.

Gabie: “And your point is? It’s not exactly like you’re following the rules anyway.”

Gabie found a safer way to build body points.

Gabie: “Debateable.”

Alton: “Hey, I still have five days left!”

Too bad. You’ve earned all of your scholarships and if you wait any longer, you’ll still be here when Estora gets back. That and I don’t want to have to do two spurts of Uni, thank you much.

Alton: “But I don’t wanna.”

Okay, since I have the room, I’m including the whole, who was named after who thing here. And I’m doing it all at once. I used pictures already included, because I didn’t think ahead to take these pictures.I named everyone after characters from the current series I’m reading, Green Rider by Kristen Britain. Karigan is the main character. She is a spunky girl from a merchant clan who likes her own way. Then she meets a dying F’ryan who sends her off on a quest to possibly save the kingdom. F’ryan and later Karigan are Green Riders, a special slightly magical group who are the king’s messenger service. This job is usually very dangerous. Also, F’ryan may have died in the second chapter of the first book, but he continues to be a big part of people’s lifes as the series continues. Estora is a noble lady who is considered the prettiest in all the

land. She was F’ryan’s lover, though only in secret, since it would be scandalous for her to be with a commoner. She also becomes friends with Karigan. Her character, honestly, rather annoys me. Which is why it gave me so much pleasure to cheese her. And now I get to continue watching her be insane. Anyway, Alton is also a noble, but he was called to the green riders as well. Becoming a Green Rider isn’t a choice. You are called, and you can’t not join. Anyway, Alton is the heir to his clan, and they refuse to let him go out on errands. So until events of the second book he had been forced to not do anything, really. He also likes Karigan, but she is completely oblivious to it. And then theirs the whole noble commoner thing. I’ll not get into all of the odd love triangles this book has going on. Just be happy I didn’t name a kid after the king.
