Introduction

Heyo!

T'is I, Efelkay, with another legacy. Yeah. Another.
The Attaways aren't being scrapped - they just take a while to write, and so I wanted to do something quick and easy alongside them. Expect no storytelling or scripting or fancy plots, just me and some sims messing around and having a good time. :D

But we should probably look at rolls first, huh?
Family structure: Step-Children
No. of kids: 3
Primary career: Farmer/nectar maker
Secondary career: Law Enforcement - Special Agent
Generational Goal: Living Green
Misc. Fun: No Strangers
Pet Goal: Perfectionist

Wow, okay, this is looking pretty close to the current generation of Attaways.  That's fine, though.
I don't think I've ever messed with nectar before, thinking on it. This'll be interesting. Not keen on travelling to France just to buy the stuff for it, though, so I miiight have to do a bit of cheating. maybe have Thalia visit the consignment store one day and just. buydebug the stuff i need into existence. close enough. this is my 'have fun' legacy anyway so screw it, i'm bending the rules :T

Speaking of Thalia, I should probably introduce you to the founder!

You'll learn more about her later, so I'll go ahead and move on. She doesn't have a partner yet, of course, but she's keen on finding one and settling down as soon as possible.
She does, however, have pets! Of course she does. I can't play a game without cats.
I love the name Ava, and I can't have a Thalia without an Ava. For reasons that would take a while to explain. Ideally, the Ava should be a human-looking robot, but I can't really do that as easily so now she's a cat.
And as a slight variation from the usual, let's throw a dog in there too.
Dan-Dan, "short" for Daniel, because I can't have an Ava without a Daniel. He's a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, and unlike every stereotype you've ever heard about Staffies, he's a sweetheart.
So we have a sim, a cat, and a dog... but I feel like something's missing.
Hmmm, but I can't for the life of me figure out wh-
Ah! A horse! His name is Flinte, with an 'e' on the end because Flint didn't look fancy enough. He's here partly because I wanted to 'complete the set', partly because I rarely play with horses, and partly because Thalia can't take the taxi thanks to the rules and I thought it'd be cool for her to learn to ride a horse instead of just the standard, boring old bike.

So, one of each pet. I'm probably not going to keep breeding them all the time like I have been with the Attaway cats, but I'd like to try and keep at least one of each with me at all times. Cus it'd be cool, and also an extra challenge. So why not.

At the time of writing this, I'd played about one update's worth... and then lost almost all of it to a game crash while I was trying to save. So that's being retconned out of existence and the first update is being delayed a bit. Sorry!
Nothing especially exciting happened, but if you guys would like I could throw together a bonus update later on with the extra shots. What do you guys thing about that?

  1. This will be good, I know from the Attaways that you're good at having fun with sims =D Thalia and Ava are very pretty names (and Ava happens to be the name of the first born cat of my own cat breeding program!)

    I'd say just upload the next chapter normally (and Attaway too :P), no need to post the stuff that has been retconned out of existence (unless something cool happened?)
    Looking forward to this, have fun!

    1. The Sims is such a great game with so many different (silly) things to do, it's hard not to have fun :P
      I'm glad you like the names. I remember being kind of amused with your Ava cat - I didn't mention it because it wasn't relevant at the time, though.

      Alright, then. Honestly, it wasn't a whole lot - just stuff that I'll probably do again. There was a fire, but I don't think that alone warrants a whole lot of attention.

      Thanks! :D
