The Gorey Legacy Part 8

doronjosimaYes, it's been months. I work a lot. (Two jobs...) Also, I'm married now, and have more social obligations because of that. It's rude to ignore the husband for hours to play the Sims on the rare occasions we have time off together. XD Anyway! Who cares about that? You want Goreys!
If you recall, Naenae got old last time (so did Friedrich), but she also maxed her Games enthusiasm! Now she has the Hi-Pro Glow every time she plays a game. Which means just about CONSTANTLY.
Friedrich continues to paint whenever he has a free moment. His so-not-goth aqua jammies amuse me.
The girls still share a room. Embley has something like 10 neat points, so she is obsessed with bed-making. Eepie just goes along with whatever anyone else is doing. Did I mention how blonde she is?
All three girls are fast friends and if left to their own devices will spend all their time together. Embley clearly wants to get her license since she's a teen now...
Makeup tips are a constant topic with three teenage girls in the house.
(Ugh, I forgot the walls were down!) This picture illustrates the difference between the twins. Embley, seriously considering everything Epergne is saying. Eepie, looking kind of dumb and confused. Poor dear. At least she's pretty.
Desperate for more romantic interactions, Epergne tried to chat up this kid outside. He laughed in her face; clearly she did not notice he is gay as the day is long.
Although, he finds Eepie kind of hot, in a totally abstract way. Either that, or she looks like a drag queen. (Again with the walls down, what was wrong with me when I took these screenies?!)
And now the Adventures of Elder Naenae, a woman physically incapable of sleeping through the night!
She cleans toilets!
She plays video games! (And of course glows while doing it...)
She's kind of awesome, even though she then complains the next day about being tired. Don't stay up till five AM doing random odd things around the house, you goof!
Friedrich continues with his paintings.
Friedrich:This tiger represents age and how it has crushed my delicate soul in its unforgiving jaws...
Okay then!
Naenae is too old to have any more babies. This does not stop her from wanting more.
She drowns her sorrows in plates of food, eaten with maximum gusto.
Now it's time for Embley's morning routine! First, she yells at her sister to get out of her way.
Then, a rousing round of bed-making!
The bathroom gets a good scrubbing next.
And then back to bed-making. Her mom's just chillin' there in the background.
What's Eepie's favorite pastime? TALKING ON THE PHONE.
Or, primping in any available shiny surface. Eepie: SO BLONDE.
Eepie: I'm the prettiest one! Tee hee! Cause I'm a blonde!
Yes, yes you are. And you know, there's a song out there for girls like you. XD
What does Embley do when not cleaning every available surface? She studies. Oh, you Knowledge sims!
Epergne also studies, mostly Mechanical skill, since she likes Tinkering. (Shhh, don't say anything, but that's Eepie's One True Hobby as well! Horrors!)
Friedrich always tries to impart fatherly wisdom over meals. And really, Embley just wants to eat.
Eepie's childhood boyfriend Depression Era Kid actually has a name. It's Kenneth. She invites him over because she wants her first kiss.
He brings a friend, and Epergne engages her in conversation. I think Epergne is trying to decide if she prefers guys or girls.
The first time Eepie tries to kiss Kenneth, he rejects her!
Eepie: But... but... I'm a blonde!
Don't cry, baby, he's just shy.
See, he fell for her right after that.
And success! First Kiss achieved! It's also nice to know Eepie isn't too shallow when it comes to looks, since Kenneth is kinda goofy looking.
She's so happy to have a boyfriend!
Sure, he's the first boy she ever knew, but that never stopped any other teenagers from going steady.
Ah, young love!
I decide not to do anything about his manpris, but he gets a new haircut. That bowl thing was just awful.
AWKWARD.
Random Teenage Girl: I should really start applying to colleges...
Friedrich does a portrait for Naenae for the Heir Wall. Predictably, she doesn't like sitting still.
She approves of the final product!
All three of the girls do the Family Kiss on each other all the time. They're all really close.
Epergne is the only person Eepie can talk to about her secret love of Tinkering.
Friedrich achieves his lifetime want, and becomes a Madia Magnate!
He can't even wait for Naenae to get out of the tub to give her the good news!
Bathroom smooches, the very best kind!
They get a Necrophone, so they can call the Grim Reaper if need be. Go Friedrich!
Now that he's reached the top of his career, Friedrich spends more time laughing with his daughters.
He also plays chess with them. Though, Eepie is probably confused...
Friedrich and Naenae have a comfortable relationship in their dotage. It's kind of cute.
He maxes another skill... and heck if I remember which one now. This is what happens when you take screenies months before posting them. D:
He befriends a local stray, I think Moonshine.
Moonshine is destructive!
This leads to scolding. Moonshine cares not for human ways.
Moonshine DOES like the window seat though. But, s/he does not move in. I made a sad face.
Only girls come home from school with the girls. Including Little Miss Booty Shorts who likes to steal gnomes.
Epergne:So, like, I know you come from a home where no one cares about you? And that's why you dress like that? But, if you steal our shit again, I'm calling the cops on your ass!
(Ha ha! Innappropriate teenage lesbian bondage joke avoided!)
Eepie: Mom, hey Mom, hey hey Mom, hey Mom, can I use the computer?
Naenae: NO.
After chatting up all the girls there, Embley makes a play for Anna, the Private School Girl. (Cause, well, she goes to an all-girls school, maybe she'll be receptive...) There are very few available teen boys in the neighborhood, so she kind of has no choice.
They hit it off! Yay! Embley won't be lonely!
Friedrich: Oh, what is this now?!
Friedrich! I'm surprised you're so intolerant!
Friedrich: Intolerant?! What? They're IN MY WAY!
Anna thinks Embley is fiiiiiiine!
Endless games of Punch-You-Punch-Me go on in this household. Sometimes I think the girls all get along a little too well.
Finally, it's time to get them all off to college! Hooray!
Epergne is the first to go, in the dead of night. (Boggerslosh already left, plus he was very dull, and thus there are no pictures of the first born son!)
Friedrich is thrilled that all four of his children are out of the house and in college! (Also, he's quite fit for an old man...)
And now, the college transition pictures and stats for all four children! College makeover pictures will be in the next update!

Date: 2009-01-05 07:20 pm (UTC)I wish I was as funny as some other Sims Legacy posters-
This isn't me fishing for compliments, btw, I just really enjoy reading other people's legacies/simstories and envy their updating/commenting/housebuilding skills. :D
