TS2 - Legacy Cove - Week 23 - 1001 Centowski Street

  TS2 - Legacy Cove - Week 23

1001 Centowski Street

 




     Greetings from our first Centowski household!  Their family is growing and has had boy after boy, so even though they are about equal footing with the Panda brood the Centowskis seem more numerous!  This is our original Centowski household, in which currently resides 2nd generation Zayna, her eldest son Xane along with his wife Deb, and one of the 4th generation twins, Xavian, has moved back home after college.  Are we ready for the introductions?  Here we go!




Zayna (Archer) Centowski

Xane Centowski
Knowledge - Gemini - Fitness buff

Deb (O'Simski) Centowski

     It's going to be a busy week, and it started off shockingly.  We found out that Frazier Lind.... is a trash kicker.  







     No one is sure how to approach Zoey and tell her that her husband has been out in the neighborhood kicking trash cans, but it's been quietly decided that since the sentrybot gave him a good zapping and sent him running away that for now hopefully he's learned his lesson and we won't have to tell his wife about his dirty, dirty deeds. 

     Xavian is hoping to find a job in the oceanography career in hopes to one day become the Hand of Poseidon.  No hits the first day, so he went with Deb to the diner to work.  





     Kate always makes me a bit nervous because she has a.. how do we say this... a reputation in Legacy Cove.  She loves to complain.  Always wants to talk to the manager.  But all went smoothly this day!  Deb's Diner must be improving!  

     Back home later that day, I was a bit worried about Xane because I had noticed that he has 3 bolts of attraction with Xavian's suitor Morrdredd, but he and Deb reminded me that Xavian has absolutely nothing to worry about.  They are so touchy!





     Morrdy wasn't invited over on Monday.  I feel Xavian needed to feel her absence and hopefully spin up some wants involving her.  But no.  So Tuesday, I teleported her in.  Things finally progressed here!

     I really just wanted a cute picture of them cuddling on the couch to match the one I have of Xane and Deb.  But things escalated!  










     Hearts started flying everywhere!  Things are starting to happen!  Zayna has a new want for a relative to get engaged.  We're on it, Zayna!  But I think something is up with Xavian's twin Xayden.  He was on the lot, a tree got struck by lightning, and afterwards Xayden used the kitchen and bathroom sink to wash up.  He broke both sinks then went home.  Dude?




     Wednesday, Xavian finally found a job in his dream career field.  Protector of Whales.  I'm not sure if we have whales to protect in Legacy Cove, but Xavian is on the job!  And conveniently... he does not work the rest of this week.  There's no engagement yet but I'm kind of hoping for another Friday wedding.  




      Meanwhile... Xerva the robot was over and fixed the sinks.  But something else broke and Zayna thought it prudent to lecture the servo.  






     I guess the trash compactor was the casualty.  We're going to loose Zayna this week, there's no way around it.  And I'm going to miss her eccentric self.  

     Back in the living room.... Xavian and Morrdredd were on a home-date.   I was humored when they both rolled up marriage wants but realized neither had had their first kiss!  That was taken care of immediately!  





     Things REALLY escalated from there.  





     I decided to give these two a little privacy.  As it turns out though, they are exhibitionists.  I thought they were okay in the bedroom dressed in tighty whiteys and .. whatever Morrdy is wearing, but they were not content to stay undercover.  





     There's only one way to fix this.  Xavian asked Morrdy to move in, so I could have her get dressed properly again.

     Thursday was another quick check in at Deb's Diner, and she's finally progressed to a rank 4 business!!  Way to go, Deb!  





     But Thursday also brought sadness to the Centowski's.  Grim finally came for Zayna.  Usually I say I'm not ready but she'd already hung around much longer than expected.  But even though I knew it was time, I'm still sad to see her go.  







     But Zayna smiled!  SHE SMILED!  You know, she's probably more than ready to see her husband Trevor again.  Hopefully they are having a wonderful time at Grim Isles!  





     She left a cushy retirement fund behind for her family to dry their tears on though.  





     Teddy watched everything from the window.  What an odd little dog.  






     As a gift to his new girlfriend, Xavian adopted a puppy from his uncle Xavier's litter.  Meet Linden!  Puppies fix all the tears!




     We also finally discovered that Morrdredd's hobby is arts and crafts!  It's about time someone became a toy maker in this neighborhood and since her LTW is to raise 20 puppies and kittens (this will not happen) and she's not career driven.... congratulations Morrdy on your toy bench.  Get to work!





     The day after grandma Zayna died didn't feel like the right time for a wedding... but Xavian did take the opportunity to propose on Friday!  Spoiler alert; She says yes!





     Linden also grew up to an adult dog!





     A Saturday wedding was immediately in the works.  But late Friday night.... Could this be a bad omen!?




     The tree that Xavian proposed under went through a heck of a lightning fire!  I'm a bit nervous as to the wedding plans now.  I'm pretty solid on them having a back yard wedding but I'm keeping the wedding church in mind still.  

     Saturday dawned and it's going to be a busy day.  A birthday and a wedding in one day!  Deb's sharing her birthday with her son and future sister-in-law!  Wait, TWO birthdays?  




     Aww, Teddy!  You are so handsome!   Not to be rude, buddy, but excuse me while I go figure out how to deck out the backyard for a summer wedding on the lawn.  




     I'm not sure if I'm taking a huge risk or being romantic by having them marry under the same tree he proposed under, which was on fire just 12 hours ago.   But.... here goes nothing!

Mr & Mrs Xavian Centowski!



The bartender, Brooke Howe


     The bartender was a bit of a mistake.  Everyone drank too much, had to pee, and even with a normally sufficient amount of bathrooms, the party started to break up at this point.  

     Deb didn't mind.  She wasn't looking to make a big deal over her birthday.  But Deb!  How often do we get to have a fancy formal-wear birthday?  








     Ta-Da!  I think she looks like the perfect grandma.  I'm surprised her and Morrdy (both family sims) aren't already reminding me that they want babies.  

     WHEW!!!  

     With all the family activity all week, I decided not to have them host the big Sunday dinner.  They've had everyone over for Zayna's passing, wedding/birthday, and I think they just need a day to do as they please.  

     I did not mean for Trevor to be out haunting though.  I guess he noticed we weren't having the Sunday family dinner.  




     Or maybe he hasn't found Zayna on the other side yet?  Trevor might be angry trying to figure out what happened to her.  Who knows?  But the irony is, Xavian wanted to see a ghost.  Because .. knowledge sims, who even understands them?  And I had Xavian stalking Trevor around the house.  But Xane just accidentally has a run-in with the ghost.  Xane's also a knowledge sim so nothing was really lost out here.  

     But that was the only exciting thing to happen on Sunday.  Next stop... The Linds!  With Zoey, Frazier the trash kicker, Walter and his fiance Julie!

TS2 - Legacy Cove - Week 23 - 1 Bamboo Blvd

TS2 - Legacy Cove - Week 23

1 Bamboo Blvd 

  



     A sunny week ahead with the first of the Panda houses!  At this home, we have Yung and Pearly, and with Yvonne off to Uni that just leaves a bunch of schnoodles;  Rollins, Pyro, Poison Ivy, and Pepper.  Whew.  Let's review!



Yung Panda
Knowledge - Capricorn - Gamer geek
7-3-3-9-7



Pearly (Finn) Panda
Knowledge - Aquarius - Nature nut
4-3-5-7-6



Rollins



Pyro



Poison Ivy



Pepper



     With just Yung and Pearly, along with the dogs, in the house this week should go by pretty quick.  We just have a few birthdays to get out of the way.  The first gift was delivered by the gypsy.  





     You know, I've never used one of these?  They just get shoved away in a corner somewhere.  I'm going to have to get brave and try it out!  Maybe Yvonne should try it for picking out her future spouse.  

     Moving on, the first birthday of the week goes to Rollins!  Congrats, lil' guy.  




     Congrats, we're already at Wednesday!  A good chunk of the week is already gone by.  With this delightful summer weather in the Cove, Pearly has been putting her nature-lovin' to use.  But let me introduce you real quick to Mr Charles Perry.  This man is a treasure!




     The gardener frees up a little bit of Pearly's time, so she has opportunity to stalk ghosts and get herself some Knowledge Sim chills.  




     Honestly, Zamaris isn't much of a haunter.  If she even makes an appearance, it's usually just to float around and check out her favorite things.  Only the core Legacy house is a challenge...  No knowledge sims, tons of ANGRY ghosts.  Go figure.  Pearly actually had to put effort in to being scared here! 

     Friday was a good day for Yung.  He has the day off from his job as Hand of Poseidon.  Can you even call that a 'job'?  Anyway.  It's also his birthday!  So last looks at adult-Yung before he becomes elder-Yung!




Yung, Yardley, Kayla, Toots hiding behind her



Cousin Xander, Yvette, Yvonne, Yeva



Nephew Shawn



Got the whole family gathered plus some friends!





Yvette and Yeva



Pearly tried to get closer, this is TOO close!
Don't be weird, Pearly.  Please.





     So he's a bit washed out as an elder.  I definitely need more clothing options for my elder men.  Taking any suggestions!!  TS2 clothes are getting hard to come by!

     Well, don't put away your party hats just yet.  Saturday is Pearly's birthday!  Here we go again with a bunch of celebration pictures!!




Vamaris, Pearly, Vincent





Cassie, Shawn, Fletcher, Kayla, Yeva



Yvonne looks so much like her!




Yamaris

     


Yung




Cassie Centowski and Shawn





     Everyone feel free to check out the refreshments while we get Pearly cleaned up!  Enjoy the hold music while you wait.  (Please feel free to hum for a few minutes) 





     Back to back birthday parties are just exhausting.  What's wrong with you popularity sims wanting so many parties?  So Sunday morning, Pearly slept in while Yung got caught up on his gaming hobby.  And congrats to Yung, he's now maxed on his enthusiasm!  




     After noon, the family started showing up for the weekly Sunday dinner.  It's not anything we didn't see with the birthdays really so I let them enjoy their day without having to pose for pictures.  Pearly actually spent a good chunk of Sunday working in her garden.  Lots of harvesting, talking, re-fertilizing... It's time-consuming.  Which is why we love the days when Charles Perry shows up!

     So that's the summer for these two Pandas.  Next up is the main Centowski house and I suspect a wedding is in the cards for them!




Thanks for reading!
