Hello and welcome back! It’s been a few days since the last update but that has a reason. Or more.
The poll is over and *drum rolls* the heir is Damian. Thank you all for voting!
Also, after this chapter, generation 1 will be over and the bachelor part begins once again. There’s a casting thread on the forum. Here.
I will soon add a family tree – I only need to make it work 😀
In terms of advertising my own stuff: I started a Build Newcrest Legacy Challenge to try “real” story writing. There’s only one chapter so far but maybe you’re interested. It’s here.
Let’s begin with this super long chapter.
It’s only been a week or less and I struggled hard to get back into this safe.
This is Mila dancing to Queen. Good girl. She’s not the heiress. I could marry her to another sim I’ve made before but maybe I’ll just drop her into the world and see what MCCC will do with her.
Her mother, Veronica, is working hard to become a 5-star celebrity. It’s no aspiration or anything. Nah, I just feel she deserves the fame. So far, she has 3 stars.
And here he is, the star of the next generation: Damian. Digging in the mud/snow to get something he hopes is worth something.
Damian: I’m a curator! I’m not digging in the mud.
And the founder Nathan is relaxing in the tub.
In case you didn’t know this (so proud I remembered it from Instagram): You can build the lowest half-walls around a bath tub to make it look like this. So cool! That’s the only reason I took this screenshot.
Nathan: Nice to hear that.
Damian: Have you heard it yet?
Mila: What?
Damian: The people chose me! I’m their favorite. They love me. You only got like 1/3 of the votes.
Mila: So I get to live in peace without someone making me do stuff I hate? Oh no, poor me… I’m such a loser.
I barely do this but I should do this more often: send my sims out of the house to do stuff. Here they arrive at the flea market. YAY
Veronica: FLEA MARKET?! Why do you keep dragging me through the dirt?!
Uh, sorry? At least the other three are excited. Kinda.
Damian: I must be dreaming.
Salim: I can punch you to show you’re awake.
Damian: Don’t you pinch someone to do that?
Salim: … Partypooper.
Anyway, Damian struggled to find crystals for his aspiration. He bought 5 of these crystals. Is that cheating?
Ellie: You look familiar! Do I know you from somewhere?
Mila: I was locked up in the basement my whole life. I don’t think you know me.
Ah yes, definitely Nathan’s daughter. Get yourself unpopular!
And what’s the big mafia boss up to?
…
Cursing at the bubble blower because he fails at using it. HAHA
Two fails at once:
1) Veronica eating spicy food.
2) Me taking screenshots at the right time.
The fire is coming out of her mouth, makes its way through her nose and into her eye. That must be painful.
It was only here that I remembered that Mila has the Public Enemy aspiration. One second ago she was nice to this townie. Better keep your bad reputation up!
There’s nothing to do here for Damian. So I made him play basketball on his own. What a loser.
Mila: What the fuck?! Why do you have worms on your head? You are gross!
I don’t like the hair 😛
Aw, Veronica sings for the people around her. Get more fame! FAME!
She loves the attention, can you see it?
Nathan looks really proud of her. And almost drops his soup, dish, whatever.
Playing basketball makes hungry so Damian buys food as well.
Vlad with earpods and a grumpy mood. Yay.
Vlad: Touch the plate and I’ll bite you!
Damian: But I paid for it.
Vlad: Why are you hiding? I can still smell you! I’ll come visit you… soon!
Damian: Ugh, what’s wrong with old people?!
That’s the first time Vlad was actually a bit creepy.
That’s Pho. I’ve never had Pho but is it really spicy? As far as I’ve heard it’s not spicy at all. I might be wrong tho.
And: Like mother, like daughter 😀
Poor, poor Veronica! 😦
Veronica: What’s going on? There is everyone?
Eh, there’s this woman… You probably don’t like her… Judith something. I think it’s Flex now.
Veronica: That bitch is stealing my audience!! Let’s go home. NOW!
Nathan might be the mafia boss but he’s not the boss at home…
Here are all the collectibles Damian has found so far. I suck at completing collections but I’ll keep them this time.
Why are you standing? There are 9 seats in this room alone!
Damian needed a hobby because the collectibles are limited around the lot. As a music lover it had to be an instrument. He already maxed violin as a child so I bought him a piano.
He loves it!
Short notice about the skills: I know it could be seen as cheating that I put him into the bachelor mansion, put the game in aging off and all. But I took notes on what skills he has now and will remove every skill (level) he will achieve in the bachelor part. Or else it would be cheating for the legacy part. I did the same with Nathan and Veronica 🙂
Damian: Life is hard. It’s cruel… it’s a bitch!
What happened?
Damian: Nothing…
Well, it’s my fault. It was Love Day and I clicked the holiday away. And they all had a sad moodlet…
Mila: Why am I cursed with a family liek this?
Veronica: It’s my work outfit! I HAVE to wear it!
Mila: You’re the boss! You choose the work outfits!!
Veronica: I’m going inside. It’s a bit breezy up here.
Mila: UGH!!
I’ve never seen Veronica this happy. What happened?
Veronica: I broke the computer.
Why is that funny? I’m worried about her now…
Veronica: Thank you for fixing the computer, honey!
Nathan: I love you!
Proof that they still interact with each other. I just don’t show it. But this picture is special: stripes on Nathan, dots on Veronica 😀 Yes, mix your viruses! Create a plague!
Nathan: That’s a brilliant idea!
Mila: Hoooooold up! What are you doing?
Damian: Watch and see.
POOF!
Mila: That was fun! Do it again!
Damian: I got like tons of these holiday crackers!
Yes, I bought him all these. The Holiday Cracker Plushies are the easiest collection to complete. I almost forgot about them.
And here they are. There are only 8 plushies you can find. This means, Damian completed his aspiration. As a teen.
He will get a new aspiration but I have no idea yet which one to pick.
Speaking of new aspirations…
Nathan: Thehehe, she will be so mad at me!
I gave Nathan another aspiration to complete. The Chief of Mischief aspiration. When he completes it, he’ll have both criminal aspirations completed 🙂
Looking all smug…
Veronica: Look at my life and you’ll see why I have the right to look smug.
True. Veronica is close to maxing the cooking skill. The funny thing is that her only perk is that she only eats food of excellent quality. She’s the only one who cooks in this house and her dishes are delicious!
Nathan: So sad…
Why?
Nathan: See that pile? It’s a few days old… My family is disgusting.
Caption this.
Veronica: Why have I married a man like this? I’ve gone through hell for him. And now this?
Poor Veronica… Nathan needed to perform 10 pranks and I thought – seeing as their relationship is maxed – it would rain positive feedback… NOPE. Her moodlets were a rollercoaster of emotions.
Nathan: *farts* Do you smell this? Oh my gosh, how can you act like a lady and be this gross?
Veronica: That wasn’t me! I swear!
Nathan: Psyche! It was me!
And that got a plus for their relationship. I don’t have to understand sims logic, do I?
Nathan: AIRHORN PRANK!
Veronica: AAAHHH!
Positive relationship gain. WTH?!
Mila: Dad, are you okay?
Nathan: Thehehehehehe.
Mila: Nevermind… Can someone please adopt me? Now?
That’s a voodoo doll. Nathan bound it on Veronica. I thought there were options like “massage” and whatsoever… Nope.
One last milestone left: clog the drain in 3 houses. Ok, should be easy. Let’s visit your enemies. The ones still alive at least.
Alice’s house is all empty. It took me a few minutes to find her on the upper floor playing video games.
Nathan: Thehehe, she’ll get wet fixing this.
Watch out, we got a badass over here! And he’s the mafia boss.
Eliza Pancakes – hated by everyone – was next on his list. Nathan was caught by her daughters twice and once by Bob.
Nathan: Why doesn’t she let me clog the drain? So rude.
After three attempts the Pancakes kicked him out of the house.
I couldn’t decide if I was angry or if it was hilarious 😀
I later found out that the attempt still counted for the aspiration. YAY!
On to the next victim. Nancy Landgraab. Yes, she’s actually a friend. She gave Nathan a lot of money to hide and never asked it back. Too bad she’s dead by now. You can’t see it on this screenshot but both tombs, hers and Geoffrey’s – are on the lot. Somewhere in the corner. How respectful.
I picked a huge house again to not get caught and kicked out again. Nathan clogs the drain…
… and completes his second aspiration.
That look tho…
Back home, the madness doesn’t stop. Only one day left before Damian ages up to a young adult and I really want Veronica to reach 5-stars before that. On to donating tons of stuff!
Do something!
Veronica: Like what?
Donate the nutcrackers! (Is that the term for that thing? That’s what we call it in Germany.)
Veronica: I can’t do that.
Turns out you can’t donate them. I couldn’t even click on them.
Plan B: donate an army of Blarffies.
Well, it took a while. And eventually a paparazzi appeared.
Veronica was soooo cute! She waved and smiled at the paparazzi! Too bad I was too slow to catch it.
And there’s Nathan in the back eating leftovers.
The next morning…
Veronica: I did it! I’m a GLOBAL SUPERSTAR! I am fame! I am rich! I have my life back!
Rich is not what I would call your household… You’re not broke either tho.
Look at her eyes…
Back home, I had to focus on another “project”: get Nathan to max fitness before he’s an elder. It’s his birthday today. Oops. I think I’ll lock the door to the fitness room for him when he’s an elder. Just to be on the safe side.
He did max the skill by the way 🙂 I’ve got a run!
Mila: Will he move out then?
Nathan: Yes, but he’ll come back with a girlfriend.
Mila: When can I move out?
Damian: Eyes on me! It’s my birthday!
Veronica: Happy birthay, honey. Please don’t spit on the cake. Can you see that I’m shining brighter than the candles?
Veronica: Oh wow, look at my glow. I’m still a beauty.
Nathan: My back hurts!
Veronica: Open your eyes. Seeing me will heal the pain!
As a last screenshot for generation 1, there’s the makeover screenshot of Damian. I gave him a full beard now and removed the hat. That’s it 😀
His new trait is Insider. -.- He will be bored A LOT!
Scoring Generation 1:
Family: 1
Creative: 1
Fortune: 0
Love: 1
Knowledge: 1
Athletic: 1
Nature: 0
Food: 0
Popularity: 4
Deviance: 7

I only counted the achievements made by Nathan and Veronica. Otherwise there would be a lot more points by now 🙂
