Knickers Legacy - 1.1.
Jan. 21st, 2011 10:14 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
simtartsSo, once upon a time, not too very long, I actually completed an asylum challenge, and vowed that the winner of said challenge would be the founder in my new pixel_trade legacy. Folks, (dramatic pause) this is that legacy. Perhaps I will actually follow through and complete this challenge, too!
And here's the winner and founder, Albina, an August founder submission fromdorkasaur_sims. Since being "cured," she fell overboard during a typhoon and washed ashore on the distant burg of Crumpleville. I'm afraid she has total amnesia, and remembers nothing of her time spent in the Group Hug Group Home. She couldn't even remember her last name, but "Knickers" had a nice ring to it, so she went with that. Plus, she enjoys hanging out in her knickers.
I'm playing this legacy sim-centric style, which is to say that I'll be trying to fulfill all of my sims' wants, no matter how irrational, but cannot give them something or make them do something unless they in some way indicate that they want it. I also plan to role for a weekly challenge from this list.
So as you can see from this pic, Albina wants a shower and a toilet. So, she's basically requesting your standard legacy shack.
Wish granted!
She also rolled the want for a fridge after the shack was built, so she gets a crappy mini-fridge. If she wanted one of those chrome refrigerators with a built-in LCD TV, like Oprah gives away to her audience, then she should have been more specific.
The interior of the shack is also nothing fancy.
I usually ignore these garden club freaks, but Albina wanted to "meet someone new."
Which reminds me that I should refresh everyone on her stats! She's popularity (I still haven't figured out how to do secondary aspirations?), a Leo, 3-8-5-4-5, and likes underwear and facial hair.
The garden club lady is totally nutso, which is too bad for Albina, since she's in the market for a "bestie."
She's also in the market for a job. Since her lifetime want is to be a rock god, I locked down her short-term want to get a job in the music career. Unfortunately, there weren't any listings.
(Albina's favorite song is "Umbrella-rella-rella-HAY-HAY-HAY" if you couldn't tell from her shirt)
Jeanette Love (byslyndsey drops by.
Jeanette: "You know what your shirt reminds me of? UMBRELLA-RELLA-RELLA-HAY-HAY-HAY!"
Perfect new bestie candidate!
Albina: "We're all friends here, right girls? I feel super comfortable around you already."
Jeanette and Garden Ho: "...."
Mission bestie unlocked!
"Mission painting easel" doesn't sound nearly so exciting, but she wanted a creativity skill point.
And then she wanted to comb for shells. This was actually my first time seeing this lil mishap, since I've never played BV or anything higher before. I don't understand why sims can't fish in the ocean - lame!
She started whining about being tired but didn't want to buy a bed, but she DID have a bunch of "nature hobby" wants after spending so much time on the beach, so I put a tent on the beach for her.
Nature isn't even one true hobby, btw - music and dance is.
Amber (snapun) is the resident paper-thief of Crumpleville. Normally I find these antics amusing, but since Albina needs to job hunt... I don't.
I was gonna sell Mr. Humble's computer for cash, but use it for job-hunting, instead. Still no music career jobs, though.
Time for the weekly challenge!
Roll 5-3 ~ Fish are Friends, not Food: your sims have all become vegetarians! They may all only eat vegetarian meals (milk is allowed) for the week.
Well, that should be easy.
Wanting to meet more people, Albina treks out to a community lot byan_nas, which was installed without clean-installer and thus has missing floors. Oops.
Instead of buying a meal, she swipes Havanna Lexy's (bondchick_nett) while Blanche (charterzard) looks on in disapproval.
Albina is going to regret stealing Havanna's meal, several updates from now.
But for now, I won't let her eat the meal because it has a hunk of glistening meat on it.
Look who else is on the lot! Eight August, byboolpropbea, who was of course Albina's main squeeze back at the Group Hug Group Home. Deep down, a part of her must remember what they used to have, because she made a beeline for him as soon as he showed up. And then...
As you like.
He feels their soul-bond, which blossomed so tenderly in a house that reeked of pee and grease fires, so she asks him out on a date.
This is how their date goes: quite well.
Basking in the afterglow, perhaps?
The tan overlay is weird. Love the swimsuit, though. It has pockets.
Love is a many, many splendored arm dislocation.
Eight is flat broke, unfortunately. In the words of TLC: I don't want no scrub, a scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me.
But this legacy is about what Albina wants, so I may have no say in the matter. >.>
Speaking of wants, her next one is for a guitar. Perfect! Now if only that stupid music career would show up...
She had a fear of being pelted to a pulp by hail, which I took to mean that she wanted an indoor dwelling space. She also wanted to learn "couples counseling" (why?), thus the book case.
It's been 24 hours since their date and Albina still hadn't called Eight. I think he was getting nervous and decided to make a BIG IMPRESSION.
At another community lot without floors, Albina takes an interest in Pembroke Underwood-August (stakeit_uk). God, look at all those Sims games for sale. SELF-PROMOTIONAL MUCH?
The cutest lot in the world: #2 Karaoke by Squeam.
Ooooh, my first bad witch! You'd think that Piper Winkles (needlecream) would be worried about the witch, but that's Nikou (lil_pixiedevil) from the Asylum that she's thinking about. Hmmmm!
Another Asylum escapee, Appomattox (charterzard) is upstairs smooching Faustine Woodward (stakeit_uk), who appears to know that her lips were made for smoochin'.
No one at the community lots really set Albina's ovaries aflame, so the next day, after her first day on the job as a lounge singer (which does NOT lead to "rock god," as I later learned), I had her invite over Eight, since she had the want to "invite someone over" anyway.
This is Eight, declining her invitation to move in.
Everyone at once: YOU JERK!
Albina immediately rolls the want for plants. Lots and lots of plants. Because a philodendron will never break your heart.
She's so despondent that she slips into a bout of self-harm, trying to freeze herself on the beach.
But a girl can't give up so easily as that! Albina wants to go on a rebound date, so it's time to check out what other fish are swimming around the pond. She forks over almost 5 grand in simoleons, hoping to get the best of the best.
Instead, she gets stupid Romance-sim-downtownie, at which point I curse and fume because I apparently didn't install the emptied out version of the downtown sub-hood, which means I'll now have those maxis douches running around the Crumpleville. FFFFFFFUUUUU.
They don't even have the least bit of interest in each other.
Gypsy, come a little closer so I can set your scarf on fire.
This picture is just to show that Albina still prefers wearing underwear to anything else.
Eight must have heard that Albina was dating other men, because he had a change of heart about moving in. FINALLY.
This was just...confusing. His lifetime want is to be a general, yet he is a general. I couldn't figure out how to make that work so I ended up re-rolling his lifetime want, which ended up being the superhero one (law enforcement).
Too bad...the helicopter car pool is nice, as is the military paycheck.
It just doesn't look right on him, though.
Albina is totally startled at the sight of Appomattox playing with a dog! Or, alternately, she's knocked up.
Does this come with ACR or InTeen or something? I don't like it.
Turns out, Eight had a bunch of pianos and crap in his pockets, so I sold them all and added on to their house. I also added more to Crumpleville.
This is what they got up to while I was re-decorating. Dirty.
Eight?! Why? Look, no one is going to sow your wild oats or whatever, so just man up and get hitched.
Thank you, that's better. And you know that Albina would only ever get married in her knickers.
House tour!
There's a bathroom, too - but you don't need to see that, right?
Eight gets a job in law enforcement. Good thing there's a diner across the street to keep him stocked with donuts.
Is this ~safe Eaxis? I'm just saying...a nearly full-grown babby is probably pretty juicy shark-bait.
I just thought she was cute. :3
THE MIRACLE OF BIRTH!
And the only person watching is that guy she went on a bad date with.
Bad Date: Is that my babby?
No.
Twin boys. The one on the floor is Augustine, and the one in her arms is Bastian. They get latin names because "Albina" is latin. They have Eight's eyes and Albina's skin...I think.
We'll end this update with a special announcement on the hygienic dangers of the "place-anywhere" diaper changing table.
Next time: Twins! Repo-Man! Another pregnancy!
