Last time on the Lilac Legacy: The kids were stir crazy and Amethyst went on an adventure to the gym where she met a pretty little brunette named Stacie, Alain retired from work after achieving his life-long dream of becoming an astronaut to everyone's surprise, Violet moved out with Jet, Cyan moved in and she and Plum got busy, and Amethyst went on a date with Stacie and it ended poorly.
We start this update off with... oh my.
Alain: Fox says we need to up our viewership, Lav. Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Lavender: Always.
Lavender: Mmm, you smell like Old Spice and Bengay. Take me now.
I'm sorry, okay? It was their idea! They keep rolling needs to WooHoo and who am I to say no?
Downstairs.
Cyan: Man, I make a mean hot dog!
From upstairs.
Lavender: Oh for heaven's sake, did you forget your teeth again? You know I don't like it when you gum my-
Alain: Ouch, OOOF careful with my hip missy! Oh yes, YES, WHO'S MY SEXY GRANDMA?
Cyan: *hurc* On second thought...
Plum: Dad... I am so glad you and mum still er... love each other. But could you at least wait until we're asleep before you play Naughty Seniors Gone Wild?
Alain: Sorry son.
I don't care what they say, I'm super happy these two still have a spicy love life. They deserve it.
The next morning, Amethyst was still upset about her failed date with Stacie.
"Hi, this is Stacie, I can't come to the phone right now, but if you leave your name and number, I'll get back to you as soon as I can. *BEEP*"
Amethyst: *sigh*
Amethyst: I don't get it mom. We had so much in common, and I could have sworn she was flirting with me.
Lavender: Some people are just afraid to be who they are, sweetheart. Maybe she's just not ready.
Amethyst: Ugh, burned. I can't do anything right today.
Meanwhile these two were flirting in the hallway, like you do.
Plum: Hey beautiful. Did the sun come out or did you just smile at me?
Cyan: Hee hee, only an artist would be this romantic.
Plum: You doing okay? You didn't sleep much last night.
Cyan: Well, I blame you for that! But really, I'm okay. I'm just getting used to living away from my dad. He's a single parent you know. My mom passed away trying to repair our television when I was just a baby.
Plum: Oh, I didn't know.
Cyan: It's okay, my dad and I are really close. We took care of each other.
Downstairs:
Lavender: KIDS! FOOD'S READY!
Plum: Hey, Cyan and I were thinking it could be a fun idea to have her dad over for dinner tonight. He's a librarian downtown. We could invite Violet and Jet too.
Alain: Sure son, it'll be nice to meet Mr Cerulean. You said he was a librarian?
Cyan: Yes, I got my love of books from him!
Lavender: Oh, wonderful! I'm sure he's read my new book then. "The Lonely Courtesan; A Tale of Reckless Passionate Abandon"
Amethyst: *COUGH*
Cyan: That was really sweet of you to invite my dad over, Plum.
Plum: Aw, it was nothing. You're family now!
Cyan: Do you really mean that?
Cyan: Forgive me for being unconventional...
Plum: Huh?
Cyan: But if I wait for you to build up the courage we'll be elders before it happens.
Cyan: Plum Lilac, will you be my husband?
Plum: ...
\
Plum: Of course!
Cyan: I'm engaged! Let's party!
Mrs Onyx [Jet's mum]: For the love of decency, put some real clothes on you succubus.
Who invited her? Whoa, where did all these people come from?
Fabulous Townie: I know, and I was like "Oh my god, the crown molding in the sitting room is absolutely to die for, don't you think?"
Cortlan : Dude... I have no idea what you're talking about. I was just asking where the washroom was...
Violet: Ew. This was a cool party, until now.
Cyan: I'm just going to close my eyes and hope you make yourself disappear. Your butt seems to be taking a while though.
Fur Coat Townie: *snort*
Mr Cerulean: Ah, you must be Plum. I've heard so much about you from Cyan.
Plum: Hello sir.
Plum: For the record sir, I think it's very admirable that you raised Cyan all by yourself. You did a great job.
Mr Cerulean: That's very kind of you to say, son.
Plum: I know this is sort of out of the blue, but Cyan asked me to marry her this morning and I said yes. I would ask for your blessing.
Mr Cerulean: ...It's never easy to let go of your baby girl. I'd like to meet your parents, but based on what I already know I'd be happy to have you as a son-in-law.
\
Plum: I told your dad about our wedding and he says he approves! I'm so happy.
♪ "I'm sexy and I know it! " ♪
Amethyst: Come on mom, break it down!
Lavender: I've been breakin' it down since before you were born kiddo. Just try and keep up!
*shuffles*
Alain: All of my kids are so talented. Rock that git-fiddle Vye!
Fabulous Townie: My god her top is adorable. Love it!
Cyan: I love him, daddy. He makes me happy.
Mr Cerulean: That's what matters. Promise you'll visit?
Cyan: Of course.
Mr Cerulean: Plum, I want to thank you for inviting me over to your beautiful home. I had a great time but I have to be going. Please take care of my little Cyan.
Plum: You don't have to tell me twice, sir.
Lavender: What a great party! Ame's passed out in the TV room from too much pop-and-locking. How're you guys?
Plum: Great, just saw Mr Cerulean off. He's an awesome guy.
Violet: Obviously it's not genetic.
Plum: *sigh* Sis, Cyan's going to be my wife, and the mother of my children. If you could just cut her a break during holiday dinners and stuff, that'd be great.
Violet: Ugh. Fine. But she's open season the rest of the year, okay?
After the festivities wound down, the newly engaged pair ran right for the bed. Surprise, surprise.
Plum: Last one under the covers has to take all their clothes off!
Lavender: Honey?
Alain: Hm?
Lavender: How come I never got to have a party and meet your mum when we got married.
Alain: She never quite forgave me for not telling her about you. I didn't want to put you in ... danger. That woman wields a walker like a medieval flail.
The next morning Plum bundled Cyan into the car and took her on a surprise trip.
Cyan: Oh my gosh, the Science Center! I love this place!
Plum: I know.
Plum: Cyan Cerulean, will you take me to be your lawfully wedded husband?
Cyan: Shouldn't I go first since I worked up the nerve to propose? And yes. I do.
Cyan: Plum Lilac, do you take me to be your lawfully wedded wife?
Plum: ... er, yes!
These two are so awkward and cute, it hurts! I'm so happy for both of them. A private wedding suited their personalities well, especially after having such a large engagement party.
Back at home.
Lavender: -and he has to have his food cut up extra fine because of his Irritable Bowel Syndrome..
Alain: You love your wife, you love your wife, you love your wife...
Maid: That's fantastic, Mrs Lilac, but I'm ready to mop the floors now.
Cyan woke up from her nap, walked downstairs, and did this.
Cyan: Dang Plum for talking me into getting chili dogs after the wedding.
Cyan: *hurc*
Maid: Not on the floors!
She was so polite she ran out front in her underwear to avoid tainting the newly polished kitchen tile.
Cyan: Bleeeeeeeeeeeh.
Amethyst: You okay? I heard some serious cookie tossing going on in the front yard.
Cyan: I'm fine, just a touch of food poisoning. I was going to catch up on my new book. Do you read at all?
Amethyst: Oh sure, I have to help mom with her stuff sometimes too. That can get a lot awkward, let me tell you. How many possible ways can you phrase "plunges his throbbing passion staff into her trembling lady flower- Oh, someone's at the door!
Earlier.
Plum: Hi there, Stacie? Stacie Brace-Face from grade 8 Geometry? This is Plum Lilac.
Since Stacie wouldn't answer any of Ame's calls, big brother had to take things into his own hands.
Amethyst: Oh... er... well this is a surprise.
Stacie: Listen Ame, it wasn't fair of me to just run away from my feelings. I'm really sorry I upset you. Let's start over okay? Hi, I'm Stacie and I regularly make a fool of myself around beautiful ladies.
Amethyst: Keep the hot compliments coming and I'll consider us even.
Amethyst: Listen, I gotta run for work but please tell me I can see you again.
I think that's a big YES.
Amethyst: Listen Plum, what you did for me was beyond amazing. Stacie is looking for a roommate and we're going to get a place together. I can't thank you enough.
Plum: That's great sis. I knew you'd find someone to make you happy.
*POP*
Cyan: ...married just in time it seems.
Plum: Uh mom... dad?
Lavender: Cyan just phoned before coming home from work. You'll never believe what tasty bit of drama we just heard.
Lavender: I know I did the same thing but couldn't you have waited a day or two at least?
Plum: ... huh?
Alain: WE'RE GOING TO BE GRANDPARENTS!
Lavender: I always knew you took after your ol' mom.
Plum: CYAN'S PREGNANT?
Indeed she is! It's never really food poisoning, is it Sim Ladies? If you're nauseus you may as well start designing your nursery.
Cyan: Ugh, I feel ill, my boobs are huge[er] and I'm drowning in "The Baby and You" books. Being pregnant sucks.
She says that like I didn't see her in the nursery staring out the window wistfully earlier.
Cyan: Okay, it's not so bad. I can't wait.
The nursery at this point was very sparse because I didn't know if it was a boy or girl bb.
Plum: -gently pat dry, massage and baste for best results. I don't think you baste babies.
Cyan: You're reading a Cook Book, Plum.
Finally got around to painting a Legacy Portrait. Sadly, Lavender is my artist for them and she never painted one for herself. :[
Cyan: So you had a baby really soon after your wedding too?
Lavender: Yeah, I wanted to make sure I'd be around to see my grandchildren grow up. To be perfectly honest, Alain and I are thrilled about your little bundle.
Lavender: My husband used to do this to me all the time and I always wanted to try it. May I?
Cyan: Of course.
Lavender: Hello little baby! Grammy loves you!
Alain: That's my son!
Plum: That's my dad!
So many feels in the house today!
This is purely to remind you all that Plum is freakin' gorgeous. The older he gets, the more I see some Alain in him.
Speaking of Alain...
Someone want to explain this?
He had no problem answering his butt-phone though.
Alain: Hey sweetie! You and Stacie doing alright?
Amethyst: Yep, we've been gardening together and taking our relationship slow. Oh! I heard the news about Plum and Cyan from mum. When's she due?
Alain: Anytime now. We've finished the nursery and the doctors say she's doing just fine. It's good to hear from you Ame. We miss you.
Amethyst: Miss you too da!
Cyan: Hmm, I think I'll read some- ALKSDJFJKLDS
And by anytime, he meant ANY.TIME. BABIES!
This was the calmest pregnancy carpool I have ever witnessed in my life. I can just imagine Plum saying "Hmm, quite. Right this way milady to the carriage." There was little to no panic.
Plum: I finished that painting of the lake this morning, I'm quite happy with it.
Cyan: Delightful. I can't wait to see it.
Cab Driver: I... thought this was an emergency?
Everyone, meet the first child of Gen 3, a beautiful baby girl!
Sky Lilac:
-Friendly
-Easily Impressed
Cyan: That wasn't so bad, baby Sky. Once the morphine kicked in mommy was just fine.
Sky: o_o
Here's the nursery. There was more added as we went along but Cyan wanted something clean and elegant for her little girl. The painting of Plums went in because it was actually pretty cute and childish once it was finished.
Also, you are so not ready for this adorable mommy and baby spam.
Also, Plum was still a bit in shock so Cyan sent him in to see his new daughter.
Plum: I hold it like this?
SUPPORT THE HEAD, SUPPORT THE HEAD MAN!
Plum: Oh, I get it now.
Alain: I'm proud of you son. Your daughter is prefect in every way.
Plum: Thanks da.
Cyan: You okay with this?
Plum: Of course! Let's have 10 more!
Cyan: I'll hold you to that.
Sky: Really? I'm not even a day old.
As the weeks went by, the parents learned how to care for a squalling baby cocoon with the help of two very doting grandparents. One morning Plum autonomously decided to play his little daughter a song in the nursery and I knew it was time for her to enter toddler-hood.
Lavender: Happy birthday little Sky! Come with me, there's cake to be had!
Plum: Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday little Sky, happy birthday to you!
Sky: *becomes one with Plum's pec*
Sky: Herp derp!
Spam.
Sky Lilac:
-Friendly
-Easily Impressed
-Family oriented
Sky is adorable and wonderful. I hope you guys enjoy her as well!
Thanks for supporting the Lilac Legacy! UNTIL NEXT TIME!
