I finally got a chance to play my Legacy Challenge family for a bit. I went kinda crazy with the pictures again, so this will be a longish update!

I took the above picture because I saw Liam doing something on the swings I had never seen — he was “chilling”. And he was looking at Kaylynn, which I thought was cute. If I were writing stories about the Shanleys I would totally make the two brothers rivals for Kaylynn’s love. Mwahaha.

Speaking of the two brothers-who-aren’t-twins-but-look-like-twins, I gave Liam a pair of glasses to further distinguish him from Devin. I figured this suited Liam since he is the “nerdy” Knowledge Sim and Devin is Mr. Popularity. Besides, I thought it made him look cuter. (That’s twice now that I’ve called him cute — could it be that the little dude is growing on me?)

Leo managed to max all of his skills, but Bree still had a few Body points to earn, so I had Leo offer her lessons on the punching bag. I snapped a pic because I thought she looked cool doing that high kick. The scary thing is that her mouth is hanging open, but her teeth are still together. It’s a bit freaky-looking up close.

As a Popularity Sim in his teenage years, Devin often had the want to “Go Out” with his friends. Here Sophie Miguel picked him up in a limo. I just like the way the cars look driving in front of the house at night, so I took a picture.

Yay! Bree finally maxed all of her skills. I was more proud of this one because I had raised her from a baby, whereas Leo had a few skills already maxed when he moved in, so it wasn’t as big of a deal.

And Devin FINALLY grew up! That seriously felt like the longest teenage phase ever, and he even grew up a day early. He was immediately promoted to State Assemplyperson since he was in the Politics career track, but since I already have the Politics career reward, I had him get a job in Law Enforcement instead. He began as Patrol Officer.

I also invited Kaylynn over and had them fall in love. Here they’re just playing “Red Hands”, but it’s a good picture of Devin as an adult.

Here’s that cutie Liam serving spaghetti. Having a house full of Outgoing Sims can be amusing sometimes, since they’re always making those finger gun “heyyyy!” gestures. Maybe I’m just easily amused.

Devin wanted to have a party, so I obliged him and invited a few people over. Well, apparently ghosts hate parties (someone mentioned this on the Legacy mailing list, but of course I forgot about it), so Nia expressed her displeasure by jumping out of the TV and scaring — who else? — poor Liam. I don’t know why she has it in for that kid. I thought the picture was funny because it looks like everyone is standing in line to have a look at the ghost.
