The Mendeleev Legacy: 2-3
Features Sims by: simmericangirl stakeit_uk dothesmustle steezie_k and upendoaushi
It's been forever and a day since I've updated this, so let's just remind ourselves of what happened last time. Laurie gave birth to the twins, Astatine and Carbon. Arsenic is a super cute/evil toddler. I think that's it...
Arsenic is also sad because her mommies generally don't pay attention to her, but Grandpa Rocko loves her dearly, so it's okay. :)
Rocko seems to be a bit senile though, as he went upstairs to the very back bathroom to make breakfast...
Then he carried the pan right back downstairs to cook the pancakes...
Notice all of the empty counters...
Then he carries the fresh pancakes back upstairs to the bathroom. I really have no idea why he did that. Maybe it was to stay close to Mercury since she was up there. I guess we'll never know.
Oh, he also feeds sleeping infants.
Even Laurie is better at taking care of the twins, even though I'm pretty sure this is the only time she's held either of them since the birth.
Well, it's time for little Arsenic to grow up, but she seems quite sad about that.
Arsenic: Yay! I didn't grow up bad!
Hmm, I remember being confused by that, but I guess her aspiration bar wasn't quite in the red. I'm pretty sure it was just completely empty. Lucky her, or I'm just bad at neglecting Sims.
Make-over!!! She's still super adorable. :D
Arsenic: Hey, Grandma! Look! There's a purple, fire breathing, flying pony!
Mercury: What?! Where?!
Arsenic: Right there across the street!
Mercury: I don't see anything...
Mercury: There's nothing out there! Are you trying to cheat your dear ol' grandmother?!
Arsenic: Of course not. *grin*
Mercury: I'm not playing with you anymore until you learn to behave.
Arsenic: Sorry, grandma...Oh look there it is again!!!
Mercury: Huh? I don't see anything...
Mercury: I feel like I've been through this before...
Arsenic seriously tries to cheat during every move. I guess that's 1 nice point for ya.
Our lovely heiress just completed her second LTW to reach the top of Education. Now she wants to be a Professional Party Guest.
It's time for another double birthday!!!
Here's little Astatine, who has Laurie's lips.
And Carbon, who also has Laurie's lips. Time to teach them their toddler skills before they roll the wants.
I assure you, those roses are indeed for Mercury...
I'd been sending them on tons of dates, since they only had a few days left with each other.
I really am terrible at having unhappy Sims. I want them to have some type of positive relationship with each other, and some skills, but of course I checked their wants first.
See, there's some negativity...*feeds her immediately*
It always freaks me out when I see people in real life tossing their toddlers in the air, and this is why. :-/
Arsenic: Why don't you grab another can of juice and then play a round of chess with me? :)
Mercury: Suuure *hiccup*
She's not all bad, she has her cute moments. She is really really really bad at karaoke though.
I missed a probably really cute positive sibling interaction.
I did catch this though. She didn't want Iodine to potty train her.
Then she got all sad and mopey. :(
Autonomous positive parental interaction!!! *cancel* Arsenic is always trying to play with and hug her parents, I guess she doesn't want to be heir.
Who in their right mind would let a child with 1 nice point handle pruning shears?!?!?!
Let's travel next door to a bit more sane family...
Two evil witches arriving by broom can only mean one thing! A wedding A birthday party!!!
It's time for Potassium and Malachai's youngest, Mars, to become a toddler!
Super cute!!! :D
Iodine has no problem interacting with her nephew...autonomously by the way. :)
Then the very next night, Pluto became a child and is also still amazingly cute. :D
Fast forward a few days, and now Mars is also a child. And now they can play with their cousins. :)
Back at the main house, Mercury was fulling her last large want, which was to max all skills. Then she and Rocko had a very special final wish...
They're just too sweet. And that really was Rocko's last want...
Grim came to collect him before they even finished the song. :(
And at the exact same moment, the twins were downstairs becoming children...
Carbon: Wooo!!! I grew up badly!!!
Back upstairs, everyone is devastated over Rocko's death, except Laurie of course.
Potassium: Dad just clocked out for good, and I missed it, huh?
Yep.
I had to wait until they stopped crying for a minute to give the twins their make-overs. Here's Astatine, and yeah I decided to let them have their natural hair colors. I figured black clothes would be good enough.
And Carbon. :)
Iodine was at work when Rocko died, but she cried and cried and cried all night when she got home.
She sat there for hours making that face and sighing. :,(
Then she got up and tucked all three of the girls in.
Arsenic: Geez, grandma! Can't I get some peace and quiet, go cry somewhere else!
My first tantrum...EVER!!! :D
Astatine: Does my pain amuse you?!?!?!
Actually, yeah, a little...
The next day, Grim came to collect Mercury. She was happy to be joining Rocko.
And once again, Laurie was the only one not to care. Even random passerbys cried!!!
Arsenic couldn't sleep so she let out her feelings through song...
And then cleaned the whole house. Seriously, she's an insomniac and a neat freak.
What kind of evilness are you up to now, Iodine?
Iodine: I came out here to give her a hug.
That's not evil...
Iodine: It would raise our relationship and make her ineligible as heiress. *evil cackle*
She really did go out there to hug her, then tickle, then chat, but Arsenic just kept on painting.
Then it was time for her birthday, but no one cared except Astatine.
She became a very lovely teen, who looks a lot like Mercury. :)
Laurie: Remember when your grandparents died and I didn't care? That was hilarious, right?!
On that note, it's time to get Arsenic out of the house and meet potential husbands if she happens to be heir or not.
There's just something very wrong with this DJ...and the awesome alien vampire fell on the lane. LoL
First she met Elliott who is by upendoaushi . He has one of her turn ons so that's good.
And apparently he has a thing for redheaded teenage girls...
But then he hopped into the photobooth with Xylia Starling...and they weren't taking pictures in there. NEXT!!!
Then there was Jason by steezie_k , but Arsenic had the black heart vomit, so I sent her home.
When she got home, I had Laurie throw a party and invite a bunch of pixels over, where Arsenic met this guy! Their interactions have bolts by them which is good, they're already talking about public woohoo, AND ACR made her stalk him for her first kiss all night long. I forgot to check who that is, but I'm sure we'll be seeing him again. :)
Mercury came haunting during the party. She didn't scare anyone though. She cried a lot, and cheered for her bed. And I guess this would be a good place to stop for now. Sorry for the lameness, but I missed them and really wanted to update. :)
