2. Aaaaand we‟re back from college! You know, that time it wasn‟t so bad. Maybe I don‟t have grounds to complain about
university after all.
Last time… um… you know what? I‟m not going to do a detailed recap. A lot happened during the college chapters. Suffice
to say, Gizmo was kidnapped by vampires, a long rescue mission was launched, which was ultimately successful except
that Jade, our heiress, is now pretty much in a trance and her boyfriend, Sun, got incinerated. Feeling caught up?
As always, let‟s go check in on our spares before visiting the main legacy family. As it so happens, this time we only have
one living away from home at the moment: Callie.
3. This is Callie‟s new house. It‟s… cute.
Callie: “You have a problem with that?”
No, no, not at all. It‟s just, I thought for sure you‟d go for something, I dunno, gothic.
Callie: “Well, this place did have a bit of a haunted house look when I bought it, but I decided after a day of living
there that I was done with dark and creepy things. I don’t want to be reminded every living moment of every day of
what I went through in college. Thus all the blue and the extra windows.”
4. Callie: “I also did away with the miniskirts and drawn-on tattoos.”
So I see. Still wearing black, though.
Callie: “Sure. I‟m still myself, aren‟t I?”
5. Callie worked very hard to decorate her house in as innocuous a way possible, but, this being Callie we‟re talking
about, there is one touch in just about every room that‟s supposed to make you think, “Wait, what?”
There really wasn‟t all that much to do with her once I finished her house. Callie completed her lifetime want in
college, and she doesn‟t have a boyfriend to marry yet, and those are the two big things I do with my spares.
6. Callie: “I‟ll have you know that I‟ve been studying my magic.”
Oh really?
Callie: “I‟m classified as a „good witch‟ now, and not just a „nice‟ one. I‟ll probably never get to my father‟s level, so
powerful that the average layman can see his aura, but I‟m trying. I‟ve also finally joined Chantelle‟s witch order.”
Good plan. That wraps it up for the spares so far, so let‟s move over to legacy central, hmm?
7. Object lesson: don‟t stand outside in the middle of a thunderstorm outside a witch‟s house.
Callie: “Hey, I didn’t have anything to do with the thunderstorm! That one, anyway.”
This is Leod McGreggor, one of the playables here in Riverblossom Hills. He has learned this lesson very, very
well.
16. Isis: “I wish I could *huff* travel *puff* faster…!”
17. You alright, Gizmo? Only that I can‟t help but notice that you stopped moving.
Gizmo: “This is my first day back at school since…” *clears throat* “Well, here I go.”
The loathe has been decimated, Gizmo. You have nothing to fear. They can‟t come after you again.
Gizmo: “Tell that to my nightmares.”
18. Nice of you to invite yourself in, Callie.
Callie: “I can‟t let everyone forget about me, now can I? Besides, my family needs me.”
Everyone is at work or school except for Jade, and she‟s asleep right now. What do you possibly hope to
accomplish?
19. …it‟s not the tip jar, is it? You‟re not hoping to get it filled here, are you?
Callie: “No!!”
Uh-huh. Sure.
Callie: “Buzz off, Author!”
20. Alright, everybody say goodbye to Gizmo, because it‟s time for her to… go to… wait, where is she?
21. Gizmo, what are you doing?
Gizmo: “Playing pinball.”
Yes, I can see that. But it‟s time for you to go to college.
Gizmo: “Are you kidding me? Go to college and live in that big house… alone… and—”
Alright, you don‟t have to elaborate. I guess I don‟t have a problem with you staying here and just transitioning to adulthood naturally. At least that
means I won‟t have to make another college update.
Gizmo: “Cool! But what‟s a college update?”
26. Sun: “Hey, hey. Everything‟s cool now, Star. I totally just got my body back, and everyone‟s safe. I didn‟t
waste, like, one single second getting over here. I love you, Star. My hair‟ll grow back eventually, promise. Don‟t
cry, please? I love you.”
31. Apparently, the options for hippie men who want to get married are very limited. I couldn‟t even find a tux with a
boutonniere. To make up for it, we gave Jade a flower crown, which is apparently easier to find than a
boutonniere.
Jade: “Author. Please be quiet. I‟m getting married.”
Oops. Sorry. (Also note that all the guests found their seats. I stand in shock and amazement.)
Jade: “Author.”
32. Callie: “I‟m so sorry I have to leave in the middle of the party, Mom… but it is two thirty in the morning.”
Isis: “We understand, dear. Go get some sleep.”
Gizmo: *whispering* “Daddy, I‟m not sure how I feel about Jade marrying a vampire.”
Sun: “Vitamin D challenged, dudette. Don‟t worry, I get you, and I will totally treat Star right.”
Gizmo: “I… d-didn‟t know you c-could hear me…”
33. Look at that, she‟s not a cake stuffer. Good for her. Most of my legacy sims so far have been.
On an unrelated note, get a look at those fangs on the groom!
On another unrelated note, here‟s hoping he can digest that cake. He is a vampire, after all.
34. Jade: “Mom, we can pull up another chair to this table if you want.”
Isis: “No, I‟m fine, sweetie. Enjoy your cake.”
35. Doesn‟t Jade make such a beautiful bride? Sun‟s looking pretty hot in that suit too, but I think it would have been
nice if he‟d had more time to grow his hair out. At least eyebrows.
Sun: “You and me both, dudette.”
36. Snow: “BOO!!”
Dez: “…”
He‟s pretty much used to it by now. What‟s great is that the second after she scared him, he got over the cold he
brought home from work. It‟s almost like getting scared by Snow cured it. Maybe it cleared his sinuses? The world
is full of mysteries.
37. Coffee, Sun? I didn‟t know vampires drank coffee.
Sun: “Totally, dudette. And I totally need a really strong cup right about now. I am still sore all over from that nasty
spell Dez laid on the loathe.”
38. Snow: “This possession thing isn‟t working.”
Isis: “It‟s awfully cold in here. Did somebody turn off the heater?”
39. Jade found her dream job in Education. Yes, I will be taking that Education bookshelf, thank you very much.
Jade: “Yes, well, it‟s going to be a bit harder for Sun to find his dream job.”
Why is that?
40. Sun: “And when I am mayor, I will, like, disband the military and declare the nation as a state of peace. And then
I‟ll, like, totally make the city far out and plant flower gardens, and you should, like, vote for me.”
A hippie who wants to be a mayor. A hippie vampire, no less. Perfect.
42. Well well well well well. Look who it is. If it isn‟t my little sister (not Rosie) mooching off my family‟s newspaper.
What are you doing here, Little Sister Who Is Not Rosie?
Little Sister Who Is Not Rosie: “Reading the newspaper. I don‟t even like the newspaper.”
So you say. I think you„re actually just trying to get face time.
Little Sister Who Is Not Rosie: “Psh… no…”
43. Sun: “Like, hello in there, baby! Can you hear me?”
Jade: “I doubt he can, honey.”
Sun: “He? Aw, no, babe, it‟s definitely a little girl in there. A little girl who looks just like you.”
Jade: “I think you‟re wrong.”
Sun: “Guess we‟ll know in a few days, huh?”
Alright, alright, enough with the cutesy bonding. Go to the dining room, please.
44. You know, I think this just might be my favorite couples‟ portrait so far. And look, Sun, I had you painted with the
correct hairstyle and facial hair.
Sun: “Helloooo baby!”
Easily distracted, aren‟t they?
45. It‟s almost baby time! How are you feeling, Jade?
Jade: “Is it time for dessert yet? I want some cheesecake.”
NO.
46. Gizmo: “But Jade, how did you know he was the one?”
Jade: “I don‟t know. It felt right. I‟d been in a relationship with that other guy, and being with Sun felt completely
different.”
Gizmo: “I… see. Is there anything you can tell me conclusively about being in love?”
Jade: “No. I‟ve tried to describe it and study it, but nothing I‟ve found seems to be exactly right. Don‟t worry so
much, Gizmo. You‟ll know.”
47. Jade: “Mom, you don‟t have to sit all the way over there.”
Isis: “GlrfI‟mgoodsnrf”
48. Allow me to take this moment to point out how Sun has redecorated one of the spare bedrooms for his purposes.
51. Sun: “So when is Flower gonna be born?”
Jade: “Sun, even if I do have a girl, which I‟m not, we are not going to name her „Flower.‟”
Sun: “Aw, come on, Star.”
Jade: “No.”
52. Ooh, here we go! Ready? Ready?
Jade: “NO!! OWWWWW!!”
53. It‟s…
Jade: “…a girl?”
Apparently, I can either have boys or girls, but not both. The last boy born into the legacy was Jade‟s father. There
was only one girl born before he was, and there have been no boys after. What‟s the deal?
But, anyway…
54. This is Andromeda.
She is the first of Generation Five. I have officially hit the halfway point.
PARTY AT MY HOUSE!!
And by the way, I have decided that Generation Five will be named after constellations. Since her father calls
himself Sun and his wife Star, and since Jade herself is into astronomy, I figured it was rather appropriate. Plus, it
sticks to the kind of nature-y name themes that we‟ve had thus far.
57. Sun: “I TOLD you!! I told you it was going to be a little girl!”
Jade: “Yes, yes, you were right. I admit it.”
Sun: “Now let me at my little girl! I never thought I would, like, ever be a father! This is far out! Can I call her
„Andi‟? „Andromeda‟ is, like, such a big name for such a little baby…”
Andi: {My, what big teeth you have…}
58. Remember when Dez was a cute father? Now he‟s a cute grandfather. I heart him. I heart him so much.
59. Sun: “Hey kid, do you mind—”
Blonde Teen: “Oh, hi, Mr. White! I‟m so glad I came home with Gizmo today, you have such a great house filled with so much cool stuff! I
love your pinball machine, and all these computers!”
Sun: “Like, that‟s far out, kid, but—”
Blonde Teen: “And this room is great, I feel like I fit right in! Seriously, do you have any openings? Do you have any sons I could marry?”
What is it with all the townies and NPCs and wanting to marry into this family? Really!
60. Gizmo: *deep breath* “Um, d-do you w-want some lobster, Sun?”
Sun: “Mmm, tempting. I think I‟ll, like, stick with my plasma juice, though. Thanks anyway, dudette.”
61. Gizmo: “Just go to sleep, Gizmo. Even if they were still out there, they can‟t come in unless I invite them.
Everything‟s going to be okay. Just ignore that one of them sleeps a few doors down. No nightmares tonight.”
62. Par: “You‟re in your underwear! That‟s indecent!”
Jade: “WAAAA!!”
Isis: “Hi there, Par. Care to stay for dinner?”
Par: “Ooh, I wish I could! I‟m really sorry Isis, but I promised Emmy I would just come to say hi and then go back
and soak in the hot tub with her!”
63. Isis: “That‟s too bad. Your father might like to spend some quality time with his brother.”
Jade: *deep breath* *deep breath* *deep breath*
64. Hey, look at that, morning sickness. It‟s been a couple of generations since I‟ve seen that. I wonder if my sims are
genetically superior, or if it‟s that this is the only toilet that isn‟t in a stall in the house?
Jade: “Blarg…”
65. Congratz on getting to be mayor, Isis.
Isis: “Yeah. Too bad it‟s not my lifetime want.”
Yeah. Too bad I‟m not interested in running a kitten mill for your LTW. Anyway, go inside, you‟re about to miss
some important birthdays.
66. First up, Gizmo finally gets to be an adult! Any birthday wishes?
Gizmo: “Yes, but I‟m not telling you! Or anyone else for that matter, really.”
Eh, just blow out the candles already.
67. Since this will effectively be the only birthday Gizmo will be in the household for, she gets to do the baby-tossing
honors for Andi.
But before we get to that…
68. Look at her!! Isn‟t she the most adorable thing ever!?
69. Right in the middle of Andi‟s birthday celebration, Jade popped into her second trimester. This roughly translates
to MOAR GEN FIVE BABIEZ.
Sun: “I‟m gonna be a father, like, again! Groovy!!”
Alright, alright, let‟s get on with the birthday.
71. Here. Have this gratuitous pic spam of Andi and her Aunt Gizmo.
Gizmo: “Andi, I hope you live a long, boring life.”
Andi: “Bloop!”
72. Gizmo: “Hey, Callie. Do you still have that spare bedroom? You do? I can? Great! Thanks! See you in a bit!”
Moving in with Callie, huh?
Gizmo: “Yep. I… really don‟t want to live alone.”
75. Also, her room has a fireplace in it. I feel the need to fill an extra slide with this because it is so very rare for me to
remember to put fireplaces in my houses, and I love this one, tucked into its own corner as it is. Even if Gizmo did
hang a froufrou mirror above it and stick a vase of flowers on the mantelpiece.
76. One day closer to baby! How are you doing, Jade?
Jade: “I am so sore…”
You look it. Any ideas on the gender?
Jade: “No. Not after I guessed wrong with Andi.”
Sore loser. Haha! Get it? Sore!?
77. Sun: “Aw, come on, Star, it‟s my turn with Andi…”
Jade: “Not on your life.”
Sun: “But I‟m, like, dead!”
78. Sun: “Okay, Andi, Mommy finally had to go eat, so guess what? We get to, like, spend some quality time, father
and daughter. That‟s cool, right? So can you, like, say „plasma‟?”
Andi: *hic* “No! No wike pwasma! Miwk!”
Sun: “I‟ll take that. Milk it is. I wouldn‟t, like, want you drinking plasma anyway.”
79. Andi: “Daddy!”
Sun: “That‟s right, Andi! I‟m your daddy! And I, like, love you so much!”
Andi: “Wuv Daddy!!”
80. Sun: “Hey, babe.”
Jade: *cough splutter* “Hi, Sun.”
Caught her red-handed, with one hand in the cookie jar, so to speak.
83. Jade: “I‟d forgotten how much fun this was!!”
Sun: “Totally. Those stars and planets are, like, beautiful, aren‟t they?”
Jade: “Well, sure, but did you know that some stars will become black holes because of their own gravity!?”
Sun: “Far out.”
Jade: “Yeah, they‟re really far out there!”
84. Dez: “…Sun.”
Sun: “Yeah, man? Just, the sun is comin‟ up, and I gotta, like, go hide for the day…”
85. Dez: “…I won‟t be seeing you again… take care of my daughter.”
Sun: “I will, man. I promised I would when I, like, married her. And I‟ll keep watch over the rest of the family over
the generations, too. I‟ll, like, be your eyes, man. I promise.”
Dez: “…thank you.”
86. Callie: “Dad, your reagents? I couldn‟t possibly…”
Dez: “…”
Callie: “Well… if you‟re sure… I‟ll be glad to take those off your hands.”
90. Isis: “It should have been me first… I‟m older than he is… this isn‟t fair…”
*doorbell*
Callie: “Dad, I thought everyone was here. Are we missing someone?”
91. SimMe: “Yes, you are. How could you start without me?”
Arie: “Who is this lady?”
96. Dez‟s last wish was to classic dance with his wife. I obliged him.
97.
98. Grimmy: “Let‟s get going, Dez. Hurry. Before the Author tries to boolprop you alive and wrecks the whole
neighborhood.”
Dez: “…I don‟t want to go.”
Grimmy: “I know. Few people actually do. But it‟s Time, Dez. Your parents are waiting for you, and your wife will
be coming along in a day or two. Besides, Brie White is demonstrating how to cook kalua pig. It‟s gonna be cold if
we take much longer.”
101. This is easily the hardest death so far in the legacy. I loved this sim. He is seriously my favorite sim… ever. I can
think of no sim I have liked more than Desmodus White the Infallibly Good Warlock. He didn‟t say a lot, and he‟s
not the handsomest sim I‟ve ever had, but he stood out with his personality and his very, shall we say, potent
fatherly instinct. He put up with no crap against his family, especially when it came to his three
daughters, Callie, Jade, and Gizmo. He lived to see the birth of his first grandchild, Andi. During his lifetime, he
incinerated the vast majority of a loathe of vampires, and beat off his own sister in a magical duel. He was kind
and loving and an incredibly adorable father and grandfather. I can‟t tell you how much I‟m going to miss this sim.
102. Sun: “Babe… I am so sorry.”
Jade: “…”
Callie: {He finally grew all his hair back. It‟s about time.}
103. This is combination adorable toddler pic spam and memorial to Dez. He made that toy.
*sniff*
104. Well, look what‟s happening in the kitchen!
Isis: “Yes! New baby! If only Dez could have survived long enough to see his birth…”
His? It‟s a boy? FINALLY!!
Jade: “This is Hydrus.”
Sun: “How are we going to shorten that…?”
105. Okay, that‟s it for this chapter! Hooray for generation five!! Click on for a few outtakes that didn‟t quite make it into
the chapter!
108. Outtake #3. It‟s almost too bad that this is ABSOLUTELY NOT CANON that Sun bit his bride right before their
wedding TWICE. Especially dressed up in her wedding gown and flower crown and all that, vampirism suits her.
109. Gypsy: “You wish to find your true love, no?”
Gizmo: “Yes. Well, no. Not right now. I need some vamprocillin. …Actually, make that ten vamprocillin.”
