Gissing Legacy, 3.7

[hjsnapepm]

Looooong time, no update. Sorry about that. But! I'm in the updating mood at the moment, so I might as well make use of it. I edited these pictures so long ago, let's see if I can remember why I chose them.


POP goes the Brenda! This one is pretty self-explanitory, lol.


And this one is just about the cutest thing I ever did see.


The Gissing women have a tendency to find money where you least expect it.


Little Elliott is home from what has to be the longest school day in the history of Mead Valley.


He brought his cousin Sigourney home for a visit.



She makes a beeline for Grampa Brandon, who she hadn't met until then. Awww.


Elliott is my lemonade stand guinea pig, as I had just installed OFB not long before I played this.


A challenger customer approaches...



Success!


Gwen's pudgy cheeks (of dooooom!) have apparently been passed on to a second generation.


Elliott: I spy with my little eye... Gilbert Jacquet!


You're not doing what I think you're doing...


Oh, good Lord, you are!


No, don't, please...!


Gilbert: *stuffs face*


Gilbert: *licks fingers*

hjsnapepm: *pukes*


Simultaneous studying FTW! (Yes, that's a romance novel, but it's Harry 'woohoo'd 20 sims by age 22' Gissing.)


Yay!


Brandon is such a sweetie.


He even helps his daughter in law improve her golf game.

Ridiculously Long Elliott Pinball Spam

Ridiculously Long Elliott Non-Pinball Spa--- just kidding. :P


This is Karen and Ricky's daughter, er... hang on. *checks family tree* Daisy Cormier.


Elliott: Look , mum, I got an A!

Brenda: That's nice, dear, but mummy's fighting the urge to pass out in her grilled cheese.


While Elliott works on his swing...


Brenda works on bringing his sibling(s) into the world.


Brenda: *does a little dance*

Marianne: Brenda, dear, now is not the time.

Harry: What's all the commotion about?


It's a boy! Matthew, same skintone as Elliott, Brenda's dark blue eyes and blond hair.


Uh oh...


Another boy, Quigley, S1(?), dark blue eyes, blond hair.


Marianne and Brandon: Yay, grandkids!




Harry: This baby stuff is a piece of cake, don't you think?

Brenda: I will not kill my husband, I will not kill my husband, I will not kill my husband...


hjsnapepm: *clicks 'Practice Chess'*

Marianne: Aw, do I have to?

hjsnapepm: If you ever want to achieve your Lifetime Want, yes.


Marianne: *maxes logic*


Marianne: *contented sigh* That wasn't so bad.


Heir pictures!


Birthday time for the twins!

Marianne and Brandon: *sneak away*


Matthew.


Quigley.

Four generations in and the Gissing nose is still going strong.

Twin Spam

Aw...

*makes note of transition outfit for overall-wearers theory*

Birthday for Elliott! He looks a bit baffled by the whole thing.





Hmm... He's not as cheek-pinchingly cute as he was as a kid.

Elliott: ...I'm not?


Harry gets a middle aged makeover and I finally find a beard that looks OK on his face.


Time for Elliott's first date...


Awwwww. She reminds me of Rita from Dexter.


Elliott and 'Rita': *play kicky bag*

Harry and Brenda: *have no shame*


Elliott does his best to distract his date from his parents' exhibitionism.






I guess it worked, lol.
