Legacy Cove - Week Eight - Archer House

     I think we all know what's going to happen in this update.  As if I didn't even just give it away with this title picture.  It wasn't a quick process though.

     First I had to get Zachariah and Antoinette settled into the house.  They are fresh off the graduation party train so they had to get moved in and their make-overs complete before we did anything else.  Antoinette's outfit in particular looked pretty hideous but she's looking smashing again now, yes?

      Then I peeked outside and .... what the... All I can say is, "That's our Deb!"   Mental note:  Invite Deb over more often.  Like.. everyday.  This house still hasn't hired a maid.  

     So Deb cleaning the doggy pee puddles under the snow is a good thing.  The first burglar making her appearance is a bad thing.  Add the burglar and the cop to the "Ain't going to marry my babies" list.  Seriously.  What is with this neighborhood and the oogly NPCs??   Sigh.  I'm going to have to import Firefighter Joe Yang from the old hood over but I don't know how to make him an actual NPC!  Grr! 

     Poor Zayna didn't get to escape the house for uni before the stupid burglar biddy showed up.  So now whenever I pop her, Zamaris, and their boy toys over for a visit, she stands around seething about the stupid burglar biddy.  Oh, but yeah, Zayna is off to college!  *wipes tear*  All the babies are all grown up!!  

     Zachariah, being a romancer, struts around.  A lot.  "Think I'll go kiss my girlfriend."  Strut.  "Think I'll go hold my girlfriend's hand."  Strut.  It's a good thing he really is cute.  

     Then... I noticed one day that he didn't have a fear to get engaged.  Antoinette has had a locked want to get engaged since the first semester of college.  That's good enough for me!  Let's roll!

      I pop the other kids and their boyfriends in to celebrate and... no sooner than Zayna and Trevor load up than they are instantly back in love.  These kids!!  Zamaris and Rob Panda stalk each other like crazy too.  All these love birds are just making me sick!

     Okay, while there's no fears about getting married... and Zane & Amaris both have wants for a relative to get married... we gotta do this.  The season turned to spring and we set up the backyard for the wedding Amaris never got herself.  A few snowflakes fell and made me sweat a bit thinking that I'd have to move the wedding inside but the clear skies won out.  PHEW!  So... here's the wedding picture spam.  

     

     Here's some pictures of the guests.  Because how often do you get to see all of these guys cleaned up in their formal wear?  Well, twice more this generation because Zamaris and Zayna will probably have decent weddings too.  But anyway!!!   PICTURES!

     A few sims I had to manually take control over and have them change into their formal-wear.  Because... they couldn't attend the ceremony due to the extended lecturing of the newspaper thief.  This.... this is why we can't have nice things, guys.  Get it together!  There's a wedding ceremony out back!  

    Also, we can't have nice things because the bride, the darling Antoinette, left her bash to go to her first day of work.  She wants to be a World Class Ballerina and when I saw a job in the Dance line of work that morning I stupidly made her take the job instead of waiting until later to accept.  

      Do you see all this lovey-dovey crap I have to put up with?  As soon as I teleport the kids in, there they go.  But it's no wonder, seeing who their role models are.  THEY ARE IN THE BATHROOM!  SERENADING!  GTFO!

     Where there's a wedding, there's also a funeral close by...  I thought Astro would make it through the end of the week but I heard the dogs howling and.... no... NO!!!!!!!  The alpha-schnoodle was dog-napped by Grim!!  YOU BASTARD!! 

     With the loss of Astro, I made Zach finally pick one of the pups to make his own.  Andromeda has already been claimed by Zayna but Aristotle and Agnesi both were up for grabs.  After consulting the current relationship panels, I had Zach select Aristotle. 

     While Antoinette was skilling for her next job promotion, I had Zach working on his new robot crafting station (which makes him just ooze tinkering happiness) and training Aristotle to come.  He even made me proud by rolling up the want to be the master and succeeded.  

     Lisa finally walked by the house and we greeted her.  What took you so long, Lisa?  Take a wrong turn by Albuquerque?  Get confused by which house is theirs?  There's only one house still in this 'hood!  Sheesh!  I award you no points.

    I am struggling on having the rest of the family be-friend Trevor.  Well, most of the family.  While Trevor likes Zayna (and the schnoodles), he doesn't seem to care to get to know the rest of the crew.  What a jerk.  A cute, shy jerk.  A cute, shy jerk that loves dogs.   Sigh.  Fine.  He's not a jerk.  He's a recluse that lives only for Zayna.  

    Since this is a legacy, there's a job that needs to be accomplished here.  So before the week was up, I thought I better have Zach and Antoinette get a jump start on Zamaris and Rob.  Zamaris still has another turn at college to go but if she thinks she's going to have six babies when she's in her own home then she'll be getting down to business pretty quick.  

     Turns out these two are little fertile myrtles!  Only took one time!   Heh heh heh.  Say it with me now, "YAY!  BABIES COMING!"   There better be a boy involved, I don't want to try for too many kids if Zamaris is having a litter.  As Zach and Antoinette curled up to sleep wondering if they remembered to use protection, my sim was out back doing back springs.   "YAY!  BABIES COMING!"  

     Sunday, we got our first Ceera sighting.  Haven't seen her kids yet but the boss poked her head in finally!  Being the active sim that she is, she stalked the trampoline and Antoinette's ballet bar.  She didn't try to socialize all that much other than to growl at the other sims for being on her items of choice before she could lay claim.  "Grrrr!  It's my turn to jump now!   Grrrrr!  I want to pirouette!"  

     I, of course, hung around the lot deep into Sunday night / Monday morning to make sure that there was indeed a bun in the over.  

     Yup!  It's there!  SURPRISE!!  Before I head back over to the college campus, here's a pic of the new and improved Kate Gypsy:

     Ta-da!   And I know this first kid for Gen 3 is going to be a girl.. How do I know?  Because I have a boy name picked out but not sure about a girl.  Maybe Zoey for a play on Antoinette?  Zoiy?  Zetta?  Well, at least I have a little bit of time to think about it while I pop in over on campus. 

     Till next time!
