Miri Tries a Legacy Chapter 10

snapshot_0083bf8e_40bf170d“Uh, Aria Chun speaking.”

snapshot_0083bf8e_40bf1728“Whoa, whoa whoa! What do you mean Johann is missing?”

snapshot_0083bf8e_c0bf1711“Uh huh, so the last thing you got from him was a phone call saying he was going to Takiemizu to find himself, but then he never made it there. When was he supposed to arrive again?”

“Yesterday. Okay. Yes, Aunt Chloe I’ll get on it right away and let you know as soon as I find out anything.” .

snapshot_0083bf8e_c0bf17c1“Gotta say Aria you have really tripped this place out!’

Aria rolled her eyes. “Cello, our cousin is missing. Did he say anything to you about his plans for after college?”

“Not really.”

Aria raised an eyebrow. “Really? In the four years you lived with him…he didn’t talk about traveling after college at all?”

snapshot_0083bf8e_a0bf164e Cello laughed nervously. “Well see, I was kind of sort of expelled from Uni after the first semester.”

“YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!’

snapshot_dfefd721_c0b9d9bc“Mrs. Chun! I apologize completely for this!”

Well when it rains it pours I guess. Welcome back to Miriville folks. As you can see we’ve got a bit of chaos going on at the moment. Johann my gen four spare took off right after college and no one seems to know where he is. Chloe my current legacy spouse is now even more worked up than she usually is, and has lassoed poor Aria Chun (the local head of the SCIA) into looking for him. And the new butler Renaud is trying to burn the house down.

snapshot_dfefd721_c0b9cbbfMy heir Amadeus missed the drama. He stayed locked up inside the tower building toy robots all evening. He’s decided he wants to own a business, and I’m inclined to let him.

snapshot_dfefd721_e0b9cb76My generation 2 heiress Sprite is proving to be very useful for running a business. The Chun’s now own a Robotic/Electronic Shop named Chuntastic. We managed to get it up to a level 3 this rotation.

snapshot_dfefd721_80b9c657In not so good news Cathy here has started stalking my Amadeus. She’s constantly heart farting him and walking into the house.

snapshot_dfefd721_60b9e123“Edith Courmenac! I knew from the moment we met she was the one destined for me.”

Hang on buddy boy…..flashes back to University……

snapshot_0084dd0b_608d0a7c“Women shouldn’t wear pants in public! My mother told me so.”

“What the hell is wrong with this guy….but is is kind of hot.”

snapshot_0084dd0b_008d0ae6“You like having a lot of best friends! No way! So do I!’

Amadeus: “It is amazing we have so much in common. Why don’t I take you to dinner next Friday. You do have a dress to wear right?”

snapshot_0084dd0b_008d0b2c

“Are you from the Dark Ages? Or are you just some kind of pervert?”

Just when I thought things were going well too…he just had to bring up the dresses talk again….

 

snapshot_0084dd0b_e08d0b3d“That Amadeus Chun is such a jerk! He is now on my enemy list for life!”

2 sim days later…..

snapshot_0084dd0b_e08d0b9a“I’m in love!”

Sims…

snapshot_dfefd721_00b9d28f“It still feels wrong having the wedding. That niece of ours is completely useless! I know her father is your brother, but….”

“Now Chloe, I’m sure Johann is fine. Aria will find him. It’s only be 2 days.”

“2 days! Our poor baby!”

And she wonders why the kid doesn’t want to come home.

Amadeus and Edith are cute together okay? Plus, Edith is so awesome! Okay, I know…after Chloe probably just about anyone would be, but really she is awesome. Trust me.

snapshot_dfefd721_409e28edCello and Amadeus are now best buddies. Of course if someone hadn’t gotten expelled from college that would have happened sooner.

“Hey if I hadn’t gotten expelled I’d still be stuck there as a placeholder for an entire generation.”

Yeah, well now I don’t have a placeholder at all.

“You could have pledged some random college person in like everyone else does.”

Hang on….did I just….no I didn’t. Nevermind.

“What?”

I said never mind. Sheesh.

snapshot_dfefd721_00b9d0cc“Excuse me?”

Yes Edith.

“What the hell is this thing?”

That’s a chemise. It’s what they used to sleep in back in the day.

“It’s a damn dress. And it itches.”

Yeah it does look really itchy.

“I’m burning it.”

*giggles*

snapshot_dfefd721_00b9e0daYou got fired???? You actually got fired?????

“How was I supposed to know asking the dean of academic studies to serve all the men in the room coffee before she started our meeting was inappropriate?”

*head desk*

snapshot_dfefd721_409e2d15Hey, Edith um…

“Yeah, yeah I know. My stupid mother in law’s upbringing got my husband fired from the education field. Luckily, I managed to help him get the job back with an apology.”

Sorry Edith.

“Oh I still love the goofball. Now his mother….”

*slams wrench*

Leaves Edith to tinker her heart out.

snapshot_dfefd721_009e3925The family now has a sweet ride thanks to Edith!

snapshot_dfefd721_e0c070aeSome residents still preferred using their feet to get where they were going. Sprite took a deep breath of fresh air. A lot of people might think that a woman her age wouldn’t be out hiking all over town, but Sprite loved hiking. Okay so maybe the old knees couldn’t quite take the hills like they used to, but she could still handle a walk down to the little cafe and back. And she intended to keep walking and enjoying nature until the old bones or the grave made her stop.

snapshot_dfefd721_e0c070ec“You’re usual ma’am?”

“Yes dear. Blended strawberry orange juice.”

“Right away. One sec Joe…I’ll be right with you.”

snapshot_dfefd721_20c0715d

After a blended juice, Sprite had started taking a few hours to soak up some sun and talk to the locals. Sometimes she’d even play a few games of chess. But that was hard going…Pony always seemed to pick the little cafe to practice her piano. And well the poor girl wasn’t getting any better at it.

“I’m glad you’re finally taking some time for yourself Sprite.”

“Well Sulli and I always talked about taking some time for just us, maybe visit the Island again. Take a balloon of all things! But family came first, and then we just ran out of time. His will made me promise to take some time for myself once he was gone. And I realized he was right. So I talked Chloe into hiring a butler once the boys moved off to college. Wasn’t too hard actually.”

snapshot_dfefd721_a0c07180“Ha! I’m not surprised. Chloe Gonzaga was always into looking important even as a kid. And she was always rather lazy. Oh I’m sorry.”

“Oh I know dear. After all these years how could I not? Boek is crazy about her though, and even with all her faults; I know she loves my son. And that’s all that counts I suppose. But I did have to get out of that house from time to time after losing Sullivan. I’d have gone crazy otherwise.”

snapshot_dfefd721_60c07152“Good for you Sprite. And I’d wager you could take that balloon ride all the way to the Island if you wanted to.”

Sprite laughed, “You’re sweet Sandy. But I’m too old for something like that.” Wasn’t she?

 

snapshot_dfefd721_80b9ce9aBack at home…..

“Hey Miri?”

Yes.

“Is writing a love song for your wife on the drums considered inappropriate?”

No….And I actually think Edith would love that.

snapshot_dfefd721_c09e37b2“So you really liked it?”

“Yes Deus. I really truly liked our song.”

“Okay good. So I was thinking about taking you on a honeymoon. That’s okay right? Taking my wife on a romantic getaway?”

“That sounds great. But I’m afraid it’s going to have to wait a bit.”

“Why?”

“Because I’m pregnant.”

snapshot_dfefd721_809e3367Yep, generation 5 is on the way! That is awesome. Sorry, I just realized that I’m technically at the half-way point and I got really excited.

snapshot_dfefd721_c09e29dbI feel like I ignore Boek a lot. But really he doesn’t do much. If he’s not locked in his tower working on the science medicine maker thing…he’s glued to the game table with his mom. Oh yeah and he take a phone call from his brother Fable about once a week.

snapshot_dfefd721_e0b9d537Oh yeah he also spends time with the other ignored person. But that’s cause Chloe really bugs me. Of course she does even less with her time than her husband. Seriously most of the time she lounges around on her bed or in a hammock. Or she drinks tea at the tea table….I can’t write an update on just that!

snapshot_dfefd721_209e3034And even though the Chun’s have a sweet ride, Edith wanted to restore another car,and I was like why not? And I have to say she’s having it really easy with pregnancy so far which is awesome.

snapshot_dfefd721_809ddffd“Hmmm…Edith’s been very worked up about finding the perfect name for the baby. I wonder why she doesn’t like Prudence or Leopold? Mother said they were lovely ideas. Of course Edith doesn’t really like……Wait! I know!!”

“Edith what do you think about……”

 

Yep…I’m leaving you here….well actually I’ve got one more pic….

snapshot_60bf18be_00bf18bf“So you found him?”

“For plumbob’s sake Cello! Turn the volume down before everyone in simnation knows I’m out here.”

*tears open paper bag*

“Sorry. So you found him?”

“I’m outside now. It’s got a huge wall around it. Trying to figure out how I’m gonna get in there.”

*smacks on potato chips. Slurps on soda* ” S’how did he end up in a place like that anyway?”

“Cello…please…..just shut-up.”

 

See you soon!
