Ryman Legacy 17A 6, 7 + 8

Um, I could probably put trigger warnings in for 8, but it's mostly only really talking about stuff pretty briefly, so you'd probably be okay ( Read more... )

legacy, ryman

*First!*

... No, I've gotta go to work in five minutes, can't start this now, but we would be update buddies if my computer hadn't crashed last night while I was trying to upload to photobucket.

Yeah, it's frustrating when that happens, and even worse with computer crashes! Motivation is hard enough to come by without that too

Alright, now that I don't need to rush to work, time for a proper comment!

Aww, Kirk & Nancy babies! <3 I'm glad at least Kirk seems quite eager about it. I hope Nancy will be, too. Lovely to have some light in the darkness

Can't remember how to spoiler tag things, so SPOILERS:

Nancy is up for having the kid, but she's also very realistic and probably wasn't going to have it if Kirk didn't want to, in the same way that if Nancy hadn't wanted it Kirk wouldn't have tried to force her. They're a pretty good team ^.^

Tyra Tang's a mean family sim whose mother was murdered and all she knows is her dad says one of the ('Ryman') prisoners did it. You don't want to be one of those around her >.Diana also lucked out on the genetics, she's so unexpectedly pretty ( ... )

(The spoiler thing is < lj-spoiler > and < / lj-spoiler >, only without the spaces.)

Glad to hear that, it's nice that there are some nice things happening too. :)

Oh dear. I definitely don't want to be around Tyra, that's for sure. I wonder if Hideki's lie is going to bite him in the butt some day... I sure hope so!

Yeah, Diana is unexpected on the whole, both her prettiness and niceness. *nods*

Oooh. I think I must have misremembered, I somehow thought that Dalton was the heir this generation. Dunno where that came from. So on the plus side, less worry for Tia's safety, but on the minus side, more worry for Dalton's? Well, at least possessiveness won't cause problems, but somehow I fear that Dalton and Diana are in danger anyway...

Wow, Hideki really is some teenager. A really, really messed up teenager. I sort of feel like I should feel sorry for him, but I think he's beyond my sympathy at this point. I have to agree about not showing what happens to Elliot; at least personally that would probably be too horrific. Reading

[Spoiler (click to open)] Well it is supposed to be a legacy at the end of the day - SOME procreation needs to be happening!

On the one hand Tyra and Diana (and their sisters) are a genetic crux including that of Seth, Rodney and Hideki, but on the other hand Liv was their grandma and she had 10 nice points, so X)

Dalton's been a bigger centre-focus, but I think I didn't want another male heir in a row and somebody was being picky about heirs marrying NPCs/townies, so Dalton/Diana wouldn't have been possible. Also Dalton's Pleasure and we've already had a Pleasure heir, so.

The situation with the aliens is pretty messed up and wrong and it created Hideki's situation in more ways than one, but Hideki's an adult who didn't have to make these choices so I don't think it's an issue to hate him (if you want to)

Yeah, if I can summon the motivation and energy to press on with more updates. I don't know if it's because I'm ill and depressed right now, but the next bit was a real struggle to push myself through :/

Loved this, Jess! *hug* I hope your holiday more than makes up for the flights!

Thanks Lauri. I'm hoping it can bust me out of my depression lately because not much else is working :(

Let's see if I remember how to do a spoiler tag! (Happy weekend!)

So I went back and started from the beginning. (Of this chapter, not the legacy...)

The bleakness in Simfield is really coming through in the kids' little mini chapters. And it's both nice and bittersweet to see them establishing independence without each other. Of course I'm still most worried for Dalton because AAAAAAAHHHHHH! (Hideki. Very glad I am a large keyboard person and he is a fictional pixel being.)

And I think I hadn't read Tori's, part, because Tori is damn stubborn and yikes. Still, I don't think the aliens can be bargained with like reasonable sims.

(Psst: in the office with Jenny Penguino, who are the other imports? I think I recognize them, but it's been years,, gah ( ... )

XD You can't apparently, but then neither could I! Oh LiveJournal.

It would definitely take some time to go from the beginning of the Legacy and would be quite the tone shift in so doing XD

[Spoiler (click to open)] Thanks! ^.^ There's so much more I could show with respect to the smaller characters, but I want to actually get somewhere this century, so I'm sticking to the bigger characters, at least for now. Don't know for sure who I'll be showing later... )

Same. Oh, same. I started a thing with people who aren't even related to the legacy... and it does nothing but lengthen my chapters, I tell you.

(On the otherhand, Simblreen is now totally a thing. It was fun last year.)

Okay, I don't think I'm caught up on the Bradfords, or everything Fuzzy's done, but you can just tell when people's sims are showing up. :)

Briney. Poor sucker is in for a world of confusion and hurt...
