Gissing Legacy, 4.0
Apr. 15th, 2009 12:59 am
Last time: Lots of passing out and inappropriate woohoo.

We join the Gissings as the twins ambush Grandpa Brandon with their report cards.
Brandon: Bloody hell, I've got to lay off the juice before evening. I'm seeing double.

The boys brought their glitch-cousin, Mischa Bruenig, home fro school with them.
Mischa: Gosh, you can see all the way up his nose from down here.

Hey, it's one of the long-imprisoned inmates of my unposted Mead Valley Asylum sequel, Alton Brown. I don't remember what he's doing here, but what I do remember is...

...Elliott has a geek crush on him.

He tries his hardest to impress the man...

...and fails. Miserably. Humiliating his grandparents in the process.

Awwww, my little Quigley's all grown up.

As is Matthew.

And off to Uni they go.

YA Elliott.

This is Aunt Gwen's daughter, Sigourney Fancey. Apparently, I have no record of what her aspiration is. I'd say Fortune or Pleasure.

YA Quigs. He's Pleasure.

This is Harry's cousin Harriet's son with Ricky Cormier, James Dalton. He's a Knowledge sim by aspiration, but as we found out from his dad, the Cormier men don't really live up to their stereotypical aspiration expectations. He also has very unfortunate glasses.

YA Hannibal, son of Stephen Gissing and Marsha Bruenig. Fortune.

And finally, YA Matthew, Grilled Cheese sim and unexpected heir, usurping longtime frontrunner Elliott through shear entertainment value.

The extended family members get know each other better.

Or, you know, not. Gosh, that's a lot of negatives. (Elliott's a bit of a loner, as you can see.)

Tickling, however, is always OK.

I decided to drag them all out on an expedition to explore some lots I've never visited before.
And now for some Watch Matthew Steal Heirship From Elliott spam:

I kind of fell in love with Matty here, I don't know why.

Hannibal's looking rather dapper in his tux, swooning over the cashier. Why are they in formal wear? I didn't like the clothes they transitioned into and they're flat broke, lol.

Sigourney: Welcome to college, cousin!
Matthew: Why thank y-OOF!

Matthew: Oh, you are so gonna pay for that...

While I'm distracted by Heir Boy, these two sneak off to the farthest corner of the lot for a rousing game of Rock-Paper-Scissors.

I said 'rousing' not 'arousing.' Gosh, you guys... Second cousins may be far enough apart for the game to not recognize you as related, but I sure do.

That was really nice of you, Matthew.
Matt: I figured I'd make an elegant meal to match my elegant clothes.
Er, sure...

I took Elliott out to earn a few bucks as a DJ.

He... wasn't so great.

Glad to see you having so much fun, El.
Elliott: I'm
*sigh* Fine.
Elliott: Yay!
Oi! You two over there! Cut that out!

Meanwhile, back at the ranch...

Harry and Brenda: *are still running through the house in their undies*

Sorry, Harry, but you're rich and your kids are


Thank you, Brenda. I knew there was a reason I liked you.

We are welcomed back to the Gissing frat by a very modest streaker.

James: Hey, Quigs!
Quigley: Have my babies.

New wardrobe time! Let's have a look.

Hannibal: Do you mind?
Er...

Oh, hey! It's Felicia Somethingorother, also known as the girl whose name I always forget. I'm surprised I managed Felicia.

Hi, Sigourney. Nice... dress. o_O

I really should remember her name more consistently, considering she's Matty's girlfriend.

He's kind of an ass to her, though.

Matt: Oh, shut up. You know you love me. *winks*

Is that...? That better not be a woohoo dance, young man!

James: You bet your sweet plumbbob it is!
D:

Let's, um, give the Autonomously Gay Duo some privacy, yeah?

Matty glitched. His grade meter stuck, and I freaked, so I moved him to a nearby dorm to unstick it.

Elliott's borked-face-templated girlfriend lives there, too.

WELL AT LEAST YOU'RE NOT RELATED TO HER.



Yeah, um... that's enough of that.
Next update, Matty moves back to the frat, James continues to be a better Romance sim than his father ever was and Hannibal tries to ~find himself~.
As a transitional update, this was kind of... blah.

Matt: YOU TAKE THAT BACK!
o_O
I love Matty's facial expressions. XD
