2. Welcome back to another chapter of the Hues legacy, a colorthemed legacy written by Haleigh/meadowthayer and me,
Roxanne/Taube. When we left off, the spares had settled down
and heiress Coral had just married her new husband, Chris, and
they left for vacation. They arrived on Twikkii Island and got into
full-on, sickeningly love-struck newlywed mode.
3. They did all the usual activities, including singing sea
chanteys and hulaing. Everyone’s been to Twikkii like
a million times, right? You don’t need me to break it
down? Okay, good, let’s move along then.
4. Chris can’t get over how lucky he is
to have married into such a
wonderful legacy with such a
wonderful sim and frequently
brings up that matchmaker ball in
conversation. Coral just smiles
knowingly.
And, of course, no Hues activity
would be complete without a little
cuddling outside, and this vacation is
no exception.
5. Sometimes I have sims brush up on skills while they’re on
vacation if the spouse is deficient, but since they both went to
college, Coral and Chris are good and got to enjoy their entire
vacation. After several days in tropical paradise, it’s time to
leave the vacation house and head home.
6. Back at the main house, while Chris and Coral are arriving, Ericka
retires. This is a good thing because . . .
7. . . . it looks like there will soon be a grandchild for her to take care of!
Yes, like many a sim before her, Coral comes back from vacation
pregnant.
8. This first pregnancy is really
rough on her. Coral is constantly
throwing up, and when she isn’t,
she’s running around feeling
nauseous and exhausted.
9. “Hey, hey. Who made his LTW on the first day of work? That would
be me, Chris Hues, Media Magnate.”
His new LTW is to be a Rock God.
10. Finally we’re done with the puking stage. Coral has her first bump and
Chris is excited to meet their little one, but he still has to wait another
two days.
11. While Coral waits for culinary to come open, the guys work, and Ericka
stays home with the dogs, everyone waits for the new baby to be
born. In the evening, that means quality time outside.
12. Out by the cemetery is not the safest place to be, but the house will
soon not be much safer. The second full night sees Rose, Sky, and Jim
out hunting.
13. And who they’re hunting, for the
most part, is Chris, though the other
members of the family don’t get off
scot free. However, all three literally
lined up to take turns scaring Chris
three in a row, one after another.
Let’s count how many scarings there
were in the one night, shall we?
That’s one.
That’s two.
15. Five. Lime just got
down showering after
the last scaring.
Six.
16. Seven. Don’t remember
who this one was directed
at. Kind of looks like a
float-by scaring, lol.
Eight. Just barely caught
this one, but not sure
why I couldn’t center
the picture.
17. Nine, ten, eleven. As you can see,
after the fourth scaring of the
night for Chris, he began to
develop a persistent fear of it and
lost points every time he got
scared. Can’t a guy have a
conversation with his wife
without getting scared over and
over? Apparently not.
18. Twelve.
Thirteen. By the end of the
evening, Chris’s aspiration had
been run down into the gold
(he was permaplat, remember)
by the constant scarings.
19. As the sun rises, Chris finally manages to make it to bed. Well . . .
almost. He’s exhausted from so many scarings and passes out right
beside the bed. So close.
20. Pop! Coral’s pregnancy is coming along. Soon we’ll meet the first
sim of the purple generation.
21. The very next night, Ericka gets
scared for the first time by Lilly,
Chris of course gets scared again,
this time by Sinjin, and Tangerine,
who was visiting, gets scared by
Peach.
22. The rest of the night is uneventful, thank god, and Coral and Chris
spend the next morning enthusing over Coral’s bump.
23. Chris barely makes it home from
work in time for the birth. Everyone
in the family is excited to meet the
little one.
24. Hello baby Amethyst, a little girl with Chris’s brown hair, Coral’s S1
skin, and the rainbow eyes! Yay! It’s always nice to get it in the first
kid of the generation.
26. “What, you guys think you can safely
tend to your baby? Well, think again,
cause Sky’s on the job! Also, I am mad
at or about Neon for some reason!”
27. Coral is pregnant again and having
a really rough pregnancy. She
threw up three times in a row, one
after another, making the toilet
quite filthy. Then, while she’s
recovering, Chris has to come jump
in her arms. Poor Coral.
28. Not all that much happened, so it’s Amethyst’s birthday already.
29. Right after her birthday, she makes best friends with both her parents.
30. And here she is! How adorable is she? What a cute kid! Amethyst’s
personality is 4/10/4/4/3, which is exactly the same as her daddy’s
personality.
31. The ghosts are wreaking havoc
again that night. Sky woke Amethyst
up from her nap with his ghostly
yelling, and Neon got a coworker
that came home with someone.
32. Pop! Coral is definitely pregnant. That’s about all there is to say about
that.
33. “We thought you should know, Chris. We ghosts got together and
decided we really hate your guts, so we’re going to keep scaring you
more than anyone else. Is that fair?”
“NO!”
“Well, too bad! Boo!”
“Aaaaaahhhhh!”
34. Somehow, despite the ghosts being big
jerks, the adults manage to teach
Amethyst all her skills. She learned a
nursery rhyme too, but I didn’t take a
picture of it.
35. Ah! What could be more romantic than a cuddle outside . . .
by the designated dog pee spot. So sweet.
36. Lilly and Rose want to remind Chris
that they hate him, but Lilly also is
thinking X-ed out thoughts of
Amethyst. I kind of don’t mind too
much that you guys pick on Chris,
but hating toddlers is beyond the
pale.
38. Coral has reached her second bump. Soon we’ll meet kiddo
number two. In the meantime, she and Chris have a quick date
right there in the house.
39. Coral didn’t get involved in teaching Amethyst any skills, but
she still spends time with her, despite being heavily
pregnant. They’re cute together, but Amethyst is really a
daddy’s girl. Besides having the same personality, she also
has the same designated hobby (music and dance) and
they’ve had a very high relationship since she was a baby.
40. Chris lost 3 skill points on a bad
chance card which sucked because
he needed some of those for
promotion. He works all night,
utilizing the energizer, and gains
them back in time for his next shift
in the military career.
41. Late that evening, Coral gives birth with all the adults in
attendance. Everyone is excited to meet the new baby.
42. And that baby is a little boy named Plum, who has brown hair, S2,
and rainbow eyes! Yay!
With two kids with the rainbow eyes already, this will definitely
only be a three-kid generation.
43. Coral gets pregnant again right away, because why not? Soon she’s
back worshiping at the porcelain throne.
44. Timberwolf got old. I put collars on
the dogs because they both claim
Lime as their master, and I was
afraid they might run away when
he died.
I’ve never actually had a dog run
away, but I’m almost superstitiously
afraid of it, so I usually put collars on
dogs.
Anyway, Timberwolf and Slate get
pretty bored hanging out all day,
doing things like watching Coral play
pool. Perhaps it’s time for a new dog
to join the pack.
45. Amethyst’s birthday has come around again. Let’s see
how she looks as a child. I’d be surprised if she were
anything but cute, but let’s look anyway.
46. Adorable! I wanted to show off her outfit too
because I think it’s just perfect for a girl named
after a purple shade. If her brother is this cute,
Haleigh and I have a hard choice in front of us.
47. Coral throws up a ton before finally getting the first bump.
She has some of the most awful morning (all day) sickness
I’ve seen in a sim, with the noted exception of Roxy
Masterpiece.
48. Yay! Another best friend for Amethyst. Despite having only 3 nice
points, she’s a pretty amiable kid and wants to be friends with her
whole family.
49. Chris has received his final promotion and is now a General! His next
LTW is to be Captain Hero.
50. This is also Amethyst’s first day at
school, and she gets home just in
time to hug her dad, who then
teaches her how to do homework
right out on the front lawn.
51. Chris is again super excited to
meet their newest little one. His
secondary family aspiration really
shines through.
He also gets the honor of bringing
Plum to his cake.
52. Here’s Plum! Aww, he’s adorable too, though he looks somewhat
different from Amethyst. He definitely got Coral’s nose, which
comes care of Ericka. What a cute little guy! This will definitely be
a difficult choice for heir.
53. Right after his birthday, he makes best friends with his mom. What is
that face he’s pulling about, though?
54. “Chris . . . wake up so I can scare youuuuuuuuu!
I hate your gutssssssssss!”
55. Chris woke up and got scared, but
he’s too awake to go back to sleep,
so he spends quality time with
Plum, who is also awake at this time
of night, and teaches his son all his
skills.
58. Jim: “Welcome to childhood! Boo!”
Lilly: “You remind me of your dad, and we hate him. Boo!”
Amethyst: “I think I want to go back to being a toddler now.”
59. “You let that awful Chris marry your daughter! We hate him!
Boo!”
Okay, seriously, ghosts, this is out of control. No one can get more
than a few hours sleep and they’re all tired during the day and
their schedules are messed up.
60. Amethyst is a little sweetie. Instead of playing with toys or
something in the morning, she wants to tell her dad jokes
and hug her mom autonomously. Awww.
61. Ericka and Lime are also nearby that morning, flirting, which is
good because Coral goes into labor. Everyone except Plum – who
is sleeping – is there to witness the birth.
62. And that’s where I’ll leave you this time. Check
back for the next chapter to see what Coral and
Chris’s new child looks like, whether s/he has the
eyes, and whether the ghosts ever give the family
a break (hint: they don’t).
