Mist is adorable!  Pretty girl, and I love her name.  And I love the founder debating back and forth about killing Luc!  Too funny.  This is a fun legacy - keep up the great work!

Oh this is really cute!  Your founder is adorable and her real name cracked me up.  I really liked the last picture - nicely done.

I like this one and hope there will be more soon.  Oh - and she's sure to have pretty babies with handsome Luc - but let's hope she keeps him around for more than one baby, lol.

You're not the only one!  I'm a total retard when it comes to computers, lol.  I had the same problem awhile back, and Sadie told me about the cache files.  Now I just delete them everytime I'm getting ready to load up my game.  I'm glad you're up and running again.

Hi, Madi - thanks for the compliment.  I'm glad you're enjoying the story.  Update?  Not quite sure, but will try to get to it late next week.

I agree, Demon.  I thrive on sims chaos, lol.  I recently played the Orphanage Challenge.  Talk about chaos!  Forget about trying to keep score and earn points, it was a cluster and a half!  And I just loved it, lol.

I actually liked it, lol.  I could have 'disposed' of her at any time, but I was thriving on the chaos.  I couldn't stop snapping pictures.  I love game chaos. 

Aw...   thank you.

I'm sorry you lost so much of your game.  What did you discover was the source of the problem?

Here ya go, hon. http://www.sims2wiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Game_Problem-Delete_Cache_Files

I sure hope it helps!

And forgive me for not complimenting your story and lovely pictures.  I'm enjoying them.

Sadie - I certainly would not say your is boring!  Not at all.  I'm going to have to check and see if I'm caught up with yours.  Thank you for reading.

Aralie - thank ya, darlin'!  So happy you're reading so many.  I almost felt guilty for being a space hog, but there's really not a whole lot going on in the story section at the moment.  I hope more people find their way here.

2*B - yeah, no kidding!  She's a total nut job.  You'll find out more about her in the next chapter.

steelguy - LOL - nothing like ruining the moment, eh?  Goooo team!    Did you get your phaser from SimsWardrobe?  There's lots of cool stuff there, including an assault rifle.  That one is loads of fun to play with.

I'm glad you think so!  Almost done with this one - two more chapters to go.  And the next is nearly done.  Might have it up early next week, we'll have to see how things go.  I have a busy week of appointments going on, but we'll see.

Sadie - I'm glad it wasn't that often.  It's pretty scary for a kid when his/her parents argue.  Thanks for reading!  Working hard on chapter 2.

Egghugger - thank you!   

steelguy - more grim than BLD?    I didn't think I could do that, lol!  Anyway - glad I got your temper up, that's a good sign - means I'm doing my job.   There will be more to come soon, as I've just been a complete workaholic on these stories lately!  Thank you very much for the compliments!

Thanks, Aralie!  Glad you enjoyed it.  I usually play with headlines on, but turn them off for stories.  Except this one - because I wanted a kooky legacy and those really get to be funny sometimes.  Wisp is my favorite kitty.  You'll see much more of him in upcoming chapters.  Thanks so much for reading!

Lotsa luck!!

Like...today, lol.




I don't even want to know why that professor is staying here.  Must be the hottest place on campus.  I think, though, that when my grandchildren are ready to go to college, they'll go to a different one!  This place has gone nuts.


Arynn chases the professor off so she can sleep.


Mallory, too, has decided to sleep over.  Weird.


Aubrey and DramaQueen look at each other from across the empty kitchen.  Kind of makes you wonder what they're thinking, doesn't it?


Ah, jeez.  And it starts, already.  Arynn does something romantic with Ocean, and DramaQueen starts her crap again.  She loses her crush and  her best friend status with him.  What best friend status?  He certainly doesn't feel the same way!


Then she announces that she's breaking up with him.  We could only hope she actually means it this time.  She's only said it four or five times.  Joseph and I were over visiting that evening, so I got to witness everything first hand.


And get this one.  She simultaneously swoons, scowls, and loses best friends all at the same time.  She needs some serious professional help.


Then the smackfest happens.  DramaQueen smacks Arynn...


...who doesn't hesitate to smack right back.


Then the nutty professor smacks Ocean.  I'm just thoroghly disgusted by her behavior.  And I seriously need a break.


And then what wonderous sight do my eyes behold in the living room?  It's Aubrey and Mallory slow dancing and gazing deep into one another's eyes.  Could this mean he's done with the professor?  I hope so!


GASP!  Oh my boy!  My beautiful boy!  He's proposed!  I'm as pleased as punch.  And not just because I think Mallory's genes are fantastic.


Oh...oh my.  Um...okay.  I guess that means she said yes?


Concerned about the welfare of my children, Joseph and I elected to spend the night.  That and it's a long drive home.


Oh LORD woman!  Haven't you caused enough damage to this household, already?  She tries to give Ocean a backrub.


Thankfully he says no.


Her brazenness shouldn't even surprise him anymore.


And then all hell breaks loose.  DramaQueen tries to leap into Ocean's arms - right in front of everyone!  This causes a string of events.  First, Ocean drops her on the floor.  Aubrey, Arynn, and Drake are furious, and Drake falls out of love with the professor.


Drake confronts DramaQueen, while Arynn actually entertains the idea that something was going on with Ocean and the professor!


Drake smacks DramaQueen while Arynn has a fit.


The professor sees stars while Arynn continues to have a fit.


Arynn gets right up in her face like a rabid dog.  Would you want to be on the receiving end of that?  Look at that face!


She smacks the professor...


...then the poor thing breaks down and cries.


Furious, she leaves the room.


O...M...G!!!  She tries to give Aubrey a backrub!  What is wrong with her?  How did she even get this job?  I don't think she's even a real teacher.  I think she escaped from a mental institution!


Aubrey isn't happy about it, either.


Arynn ran out the very same day, and in a fit of anger, sold the double bed and got two singles, instead.  Now she and Ocean sleep on opposite sides of the room.


Oh THIS they need!  Haven't these poor kids been through enough, already?  I'm already having a tough time not yanking all three of them out of that horrid school.


Oh thank goodness!  The police are here.  Wait a minute...it's that loser, Dorian Kauker.  I wonder how much the crook will make out with?  Hey, Dorian!  The crook is BEHIND you!  Geez!


Dorian turns around and slouches at the criminal.  At least he has the decency to look alarmed.


Dorian:  I've got you now!


And the fight is on!


Dorian seems to be pulling ahead!


I can't believe it!  Dorian actually wins!  He actually caught the crook! 


Crook:  I would have gotten away, too, if it hadn't been for those rotten kids.


Wait a minute.  What the heck is he doing? 


Wary, Ocean follows Dorian out of the house to make sure he doesn't leave the crook behind.


But, weirdly enough, the crook obediently makes his way to the waiting police car.


...I'm not even sure what to say about this.  I mean, what the...?  I've never seen anything like it!


And Dorian gets the criminal safely inside the car.


This is what is happening inside the house while all that weirdness is going on outside.

Ocean is suddenly back in the house again (how the heck did he do that?) and tries to give Arynn a hug.


She shoves him off dramatically and they both almost fall on their rear ends.


Ocean pouts.


Arynn:  I'm not in love with you anymore.  I'm not best friends with you anymore, either.

Ocean:  I'm not best friends with you, anymore, either.  But I want to be.

Ouch.  That's got to hurt.  Drake takes this opportunity to get in the groove.


Ocean asks Arynn to dance.  She gives it a go...


...but then decides she's just not interested when Ocean reaches out for her.


Arynn:  Don't touch me!


Ocean:  But honey...


Arynn:  Don't 'honey' me, either!

Poor Ocean!  His heart is broken.


Unexpected Hero of the Day Dorian:  I have safely captured your criminal and have him locked in my squad car.  He will bother you no more.  This campus will once again be safe!

Drake:  'k thanks!


Arynn:  I'm okay.  Really, I am.  Even though I just broke up with my long time boyfriend and our house was robbed, I'm okay.


Arynn:  I'm not okay!


Arynn:  Aw, it's okay bro!  Everything will be great.


Arynn:  Damn everyone!

Whether you're a sister or a mom, or anything else, having a special needs child in the family changes the dynamics of that family.  In real life and stories.  Some people cope better than others, and you'll see how poorly Victoria's family copes with it.  But the story is more about her than it is her brother.

You sound like a good big sister.  I know it can't be easy dealing with that.  I'm lucky my guy likes to eat - even though he only eats a few things.  And I agree that if they learn to manipulate the situation it makes it ten times tougher.  Because then you have to watch them to see if they're manipulating, or honestly struggling with something.

Luckily my muse is with me and I've been working pretty tirelessly on all of my projects as of late.  So updates won't take terribly long.  I am juggling four stories plus homelife, so it will take a little bit, but it's better than the last two months when I was burned out and didn't work on any of my projects.  I just uselessly existed, lol, and nothing got posted.  Thanks for all the reading! 

Thank you, Sugah!  I appreciate the compliments.  And there still may be a surprise or two left.
