Round Robin Legacy, Generation Two

Part 1

I'll start off with a pic of our lovely heir, Aminat Bebeess.

First thing first: find a job. Her lifetime want is to become Captain Hero, but, alas, Law Enforcement wasn’t in the paper. Instead she settled for the Adventurer track.

The welcome party – too bad neither of the guys are townies.

It wasn’t too long until this guy showed up though – Sinjin Courdoc or something. They greeted with a high five like they weren’t complete strangers. That’s normal, right?

Of course there is no chemistry. Too bad; Sinjin had a cute little round face.

First day of work!

She’s promoted a couple times to Multiregional Sim of Some Question… which I’m still not exactly sure what it is.

Are you kidding me? All I’m getting now are old guys.

There were a lot more sims that came by, all of which Aminat was repulsed by. If I took a picture of all of them we would have a book, but for example, there was this guy, John, I think:

I don’t know why he doesn’t have a shirt either, Aminat. You have every right to have that look on your face.

Dude stop walking by my house!

I have to say, I was quickly losing hope by this point. Aminat found her preferred career choice though, and on her first day of work as a security guard, this sim walks by.

Not a very good profile picture, but he has the hugest schnoz I have ever seen. And let’s not even mention his questionable fashion choice:

There are definitely no cute guys in this neighborhood.

Aminat does have 2 chemistry bolts with him though and she has proven to be the pickiest sim I’ve ever had. Hmm…

Dammit.

Yet another example of Aminat being a prude.

Okay, so maybe Ted isn’t that bad. Sure, he has a weird face, pasty skin, and horrible nose, but I mean he’s kinda cute. In his own special way. And he has pretty bright green eyes and a normal name.

But, that nose.

Aw, they are pretty cute together.

Rude. At least Ted is a gentleman. Even if his ass is hanging out of his pants.

I’m actually starting to get attached to this guy.

Aw crap. I’m so sorry guys if this legacy is tainted by long bumpy noses.

He looks normal if the camera is at a certain angle, at least.

He’s a knowledge sim, with a lifetime want of getting to the top of the medical career.

Huh. He doesn’t look half bad made over. Of course, that’s from a front view. Dorky shirt because dorky Ted.

Meanwhile, Aminat has been getting promoted left and right. You go girl!

That’s it. I’m in love with Ted.

Aminat got possessed by the devil after the engaged video clip. It’s ok, I fixed it. But look how creepy she is!

They got married in the kitchen/living room. Classy right? At least they dressed up for it.

Ah, I can already tell this is going to be a nice marriage.

Baby?

Baby. And that freaking hair glitch.

Ted found his preferred career choice too, and him and the ambulance driver just stared at each other all the way to work. Weird, guys.

Obligatory falling asleep in food because of pregnancy photo. Ted seems indifferent.

The first baby is born! Ted still doesn’t give a crap.

His name is Stephen. I can’t wait to see what he’s going to look like when he grows up.

Aww I really like the TS2 babies.

I don’t think Ted is ready for fatherhood.

He still steps on Aminat’s feet when dancing, and she gives him the face of fury.

Already working on baby #2. Keep 'em coming, guys.

It’s Stephen’s birthday!

Aw, not as horrible as it could be.

Ted wanted to write a book, so I obliged and he churned out this:.

Then he read it to Stephen. Stephen has to be informed with what he might face in the future.

And Aminat’s pregnant again.This generation is off on a roll!

Ted is sure going to add some interesting genes to this legacy. Those pants, though. He cleans up rather...okay, though. Haha.

Also, I see that he is just as great an author as his father-in-law.

Stephen looks cute. Can't wait to see how he grows up!

[Laura]

Oh, Ted... I kinda love him too. Him and Aminat have a cute relationship (even with the frequent death glares).  I had a guy with that face template marry my legacy founder. That noise is still going strong into the third and fourth generation. I personally like quirky Maxis face features like that though. Stephen is adorable~ Can't wait to see baby no. 2!

You have no idea how much of a struggle it was to invite him to move in with those pants...

Oh Lord, that's encouraging haha.

I don't have an update today, but there should be one coming soon. I'm probably not going to make it by tomorrow though (the last kid is still a toddler) but I'm hoping to wrap things up quickly. Sorry about that; I didn't have as much time as I thought to play this week (ugh, school, you know? You think you'll be find and then bam! Suddenly you're thrown 2 biology tests, a spanish test, and 2 2,000 word stories in 2 weeks time). So yeah, I'll have an update soon and the end of generation 2 shouldn't be too far away.

Oh God I know how you feel. Not last week, but the week before was a NIGHTMARE. A History and Chemistry test, a World Issues report, an essay, a short story.. also with homework in each class almost every single night. I almost died. Now I have a World Issues test this Tuesday, and another assignment as well.

I love Ted! Besides his.. unique nose and beautiful pants, he cleaned up really well. Can't wait to see what the babies look like all grown up!

Isn't that face template Benjamin Long has? I can't tell for sure, since different skins.

I also actually really like how Stephen is looking so far! I am shamefully hoping that generation 3 gets some recessive genes in so I can have some different hair color'd Sims.

I'm pretty sure that's not his face template. Isn't it the same as Kaylynn Langerak (the Pleasantview maid) though?

Duly noted. :3 I have a hair/eye equality mod, which makes recessive traits as dominant as, well, dominant traits, so Gen. 4(?) may deviate away from black hair. x)

Round Robin Legacy, Generation Two
Part 2

I finished all the junk I had to do and finally got some play time in. Woo!

EDIT: I went ahead and combined the halves of this update since it seems to be working for me now. I'm so sorry for the lateness of this.

I'll also apologize in advance. This update features not as many pictures over a very large time period. It mainly focuses on the kids and birthdays, not much of interest happens.

Here's a cute picture of Ted, Stephen, and the rocking horse to start off with.



Aminat went into labor and Stephen did a giant nope and left the room. He's starting to show some attitude. He get's it from his daddy.



Welcome to the family, Carrie Bebeess!



Ted came home later that day more than a little irritated. But he got promoted. Cheer up, Ted!



I held my breath as Stephen's birthday came, but it looks like he's growing up pretty good.





He's definitely showing some kind of attitude problem as he slinks off to the TV.



Yup, there's the torment want, the little jerk.



Ted, this isn't your bachelor pad. You can't run around in tiny underwear in front of children. You're going to scar poor Stephen for life.



Stephen's waaay too happy to be going to school. Ah, the first day. So many hopes for the future.



Wonderful parenting, guys.



Carrie grew up quite nicely.



STEPHEN STOP BEING A LITTLE DOUCHE!



The third and final child of generation 2 is born! You guys didn't even know Aminat was pregnant again.
It's a boy again. His name him Spencer.



NO, AMINAT DID I STUTTER I SAID FINAL.



Carrie grew up into a child not long after. looks like she's turning out rather pretty.



A final baby picture of Spencer before his birthday. He's having a lot of fun on that baby bounce thingy.



Freaking glitches.



Well... here's Spencer. I promise this isn't a glitch again.
I'm hoping he grows more into his face later on.



Stephen's birthday was after that! Sorry guys, I warned you this wasn't a very interesting update.

He rolled a 6, so I went ahead and gave him the fortune aspiration. I never have many of those, and they're fairly easy.

I don't remember offhand what his turn ons and turn offs were. *hangs head in shame*



Ok, yeah, making out in the middle of the road in COMPLETE DARKNESS is totally a good idea. Nothing bad could ever happen doing that.



Guess who's nose Stephen has?
That's right, not Aminat.



Quick to fulfill that Overachiever want, Stephen searches for a job online. His lifetime want is to become a ballet dancer, but he'll have to settle for Intelligence for now.



I really like Carrie and I'm not exactly sure why.



Holding my breath, Spencer's birthday came around again and he grew up into a child. Oh, well he doesn't look so ba-



OH MY SWEET MERCIFUL LORD WHAT HAVE I DONE???



Well, apparently Spencer likes to trick his creator by aging up into a scrunched up expression, because he actually came out SUPER DUPER ADORABLE. I love sim genetics.

I'm thinking there's going to be 1 or 2 more updates from me before we get to move on to the poll. I'll try to speed it up as best I can!

[PlyPlay665]

I'm really liking Stephen the most so far! Although Carrie is nice too. I'll have to know their personalities a little more, though. We'll see. (Sorry Spencer!)

[Laura]

Aw, they're all pretty good looking. ^_^ Stephen turned out cute, nose and all. But Spencer's probably the most adorable in my opinion. Though Stephen's bratty personality would be fun to work with... ugh. I like them all, basically! Looking forward to seeing a little more of them as they grow up!

[Samantha]

Carrie is so cute!

I'm glad you got the pictures to show up.

Round Robin Legacy, Generation Two
Part 3

{hide}
Let's start today with activities and randomness, because I have a lot of random photos this time.



Spencer spends most of his time at the chess table. He's quickly gaining those logic points!



When he's not doing that he's usually on the computer playing The Sims 3. Spencer is all of us.



Carrie really likes to jump rope. Every time I leave her by herself I find her like this.



Almost sadly, it was time for Aminat's birhtday. She aged into a very beautiful elder.



Stephen, you're confusing games for reality again.



Spencer ain't takin' none of yo crap.



I think I caught Carrie in the middle of changing, but it looks like she spontaneously decided to break out in a ballet.



Stephen got promoted. Good job Stephen! Proud of ya bud.



Ok, anyway, Carrie's birthday was only a day away and she had the "Get a puppy" want through all her childhood, so Ted called the adoption center and got this little guy. His name is Jake.



Aww puppies and food is the cutest thing ever.



Haha, Spencer's just like, "What do I do with it?"



Sometimes Aminat joins him in his chess game. A little mother-son bonding time.



What??? How can a dog that small even create that big of a puddle?



Carrie's birthday! She turned into an absolutely beautiful teenager.

She rolled a 4, so romance it is. That's going to be interesting.

Her turn ons are red hair and custom hair, and turn off is formal wear. (Stephen's was fitness, athletic, and formal wear, btw).



It's time for Jake to grow up already?? But I liked the puppy!
Not saying that he isn't cute full grown either. <3



Stephen set the stove on fire trying to cook spaghetti one night. Which is where I'm going to pause for a moment and tell you a little story. I had a dream this weekend where I was playing these guys and there was a huge kitchen fire. Aminat and Stephen died. I was sad and freaking out because the heir died. I have never dreamed about sims before, it was very new and weird.

Anyway, moving on...





Carrie's living up to her romance aspiration already.

That's Kevin by the way, a sim I created for avatars. He still doesn't have a last name.

Huh. Kevin could almost pass as one of them with his tan skin and black hair.





Enter overprotective older brother Stephen. I laughed for a good 5 minutes over this.



Aminat maxed out her logic skill! Woot!



Carrie taught Jake how to play dead. I love that command.



Ted's birthday rolled around too (I'm telling you, it took me forever to find someone for Aminat).

I don't think he aged up as gracefully as she did.



Carrie's pretty surprised by her father's new appearance.



Now that the parents are both elderly, they partake in elderly activities together, such as complaining about the weather.



Next birthday! Spencer this time again. I was happy to see he didn't grow out of his cuteness.

Hmm it seems I'm ending all my updates with Spencer's birthday, haha!

[Laura]

Aw this was a nice update. It was sad seeing Gen. Two join the league of grey and saggy, but they look pretty good all the same! As for the kiddies - wow, Spencer.  I knew he'd be a cutie! Carrie really blossomed too, while Stephen's over-protective brotherliness had me laughing. It was nice that we got a greater sense of their personalities this round.

I've never thought about the puppy pee thing but you're so right - how can they store that much liquid inside them?  #simlogic #don'tquestionit

[PlyPlay665]

Aww, I like all of generation three now! It's going to be a very hard decision, now. I think I'll go for one of the guys this time around, though.

[LadyofShalott]

Round Robin Legacy, Generation Two
Part 4

I'm glad you guys like the kiddos! I've grown pretty attached to them myself.

Since I'm well aware that I'm almost two weeks over my intended deadline, I hope you don't mind if I speed through things a little bit. This will be a very short last update.

SPOILER: Click to show

I just now realized I didn't say Spencer's aspiration and stuff last time! Whoops.

He rolled the Family aspiration (which made me very happy because it seems to fit him). His turn ons are Brown Hair and Good at cleaning, and turn off is Fitness.



Spencer decided he'd be the nice intelligent younger brother and help Stephen with his homework. Probably wasn't the best idea he ever had judging by that face.



A little brotherly bonding, when he isn't doing his homework.



I looked outside once and found Jake playing with the sprinkler. Look at what a happy pup!



Finally, it was that time and Stephen aged up... into a horrible blue tracksuit and a mental breakdown. I see we're still taking after our uncles, are we?

After that mess was taken care of and Stephen cleaned himself up a little, he was satisfied with this look:



Look at that stud.

I had to give him a haircut. He looked a little pedophile-like with the other one.

Stephen got sent off to the bin, and then there were 4.



Ted, why don't you write your dirty old man thoughts somewhere more private than the living room, okay bud?



It appears Spencer gets along with Carrie's boyfriend better than Stephen did.



That's an awful evil look for just a game of baseball, Aminat.



Carrie's birthday next! So pretty!!

She got sent off to the bin too with her brother, and just the baby of the house was left.



Who of which was working on that first kiss want.



Apparently romance just doesn't come as easy to him as it did to Carrie.



Every time I turn around these two have dropped everything to do some kind of romantic autonomous action and it's freaking adorable.



At last, Spencer grew up. Aw, still cute. <3



He left as well, leaving Aminat and Ted the only ones in the house. Besides Jake, that is.

My babies. All grown up. *sniff*



Now that the house is empty, this quirky couples relaxes on the couch together in the quiet.

That's it from me for now. Sorry it took so long. I hope you enjoyed the ride.
I'm a horrible editor, so here are some craptastically made stat cards for each of them:







I'm going to put the heir poll up right away. Don't forget to vote for Generation 3!
