#msc:g2 cousins

This week, in Town Gossip, we have cousin Jenna joining the army of ghosts. Her last and true love, Evan, taking it hard and adopting a cute kitten as a remedy for grief.

More on, Macy, with a desire to improve her kama simtra and no one to woohoo with, takes her frustration out on poor Vickie. Alas, she's no Fendi and there are no passionate kisses afterwards. Speaking of which, Fendi's heir section at the Founder's Museum is almost finished. Now we're waiting for Macy to finally join him in the afterlife.

I deserved this.

For context, Fendi's mother, Roxie, made 3 children from 3 different men, marrying none. Then those men went ahead and had more children from other women. So, now, Fendi's half-siblings on his father's side have no genetic relation to his half-siblings on his mother's side.

It certainly was easier to accept it when his niece hooked up with one of his half-brothers - since his cousin already being married to another one - than to bring a new sim in and hope they will end up together.

I have a caste that I apply to sims who are genetically related to the legacy family, since further down the line, the game stops categorising distant relatives as blood relatives and it starts as early as 3rd generation e.g. the children of two cousins. So Fendi and Jenna cannot date since they're cousins, but their children can. The caste makes sure that Danzig wouldn't have any ideas with Jenna's kids and vice versa.

I didn't apply the caste to Fendi's half-siblings sharing a father, simply because I only considered Danzig and Rollins and they clearly wouldn't be able to date and marry their own uncles and aunts. However, that was not the case for Sid.

The problem is that Fendi's niece, Sid, is now his Sister-in-Law, making her eligible for Woohooty Texts. This was slapped on my face when I was happily spying on my sims in Map View. :/

Upon returning from the university, cousins move on with their lives. Sid starts as a band manager in music career and moves into the room above the grocery store. Rollins gets an offer in the video game developer career. She moves into the house shown in the screenshots. It's built after this video, originally intended for Fendi and Macy.

Then I remembered that they don't have to move until Danzig decides to have babies. And that will take some time. So they'll stay for a while.

Prada really wants her little one to have that childhood she never had. So she visits the park with Sid. Fendi, later joins them with Rollins. Thus giving him the opportunity to patch things up with cousin Jenna. Since they moved back to town and Jenna hooked up with Nate, they were falling out. The night Roxie died was the last straw for both of them. Somehow Jenna was being rude and the friendship was broken. I suspected both Shirley and Jenna was secretly enjoying Roxie's passing. However, upon meeting them at the park it was clear that they took it hard as well.

In the end, Prada and Fendi, feeling generous, choose to console their mourning relatives, when it should be the other way around. 🙄 But then, nobody cared when Jeramy died, so it may be fitting after all. Woes of being a spare in a legacy, I guess...

The last supper together after the finals. This time they are all on Dean's List. Funny how Fendi is praised for his hard work, when all he do is just being present.

Noticed the Romeo in the background?

First breakfast together at Uni - could also be the last honestly.

Do you remember Nate? His journey in this legacy has started at the top and sunk pretty fast. Just when I thought he can't go any lower, he managed to prove me wrong. Let me put it this way:

Gucci's father Nate, seduced and impregnated his son's cousin, Jenna; moving in with the richest family in town while successfully erasing the Kinder family name in the process. Jenna's mother, Shirley is younger than Nate. Jenna gave birth at the night of Macy's bachelorette party and they got married the morning of Fendi and Macy's wedding. Heh

So far he's a good candidate for the worst non-legacy character.

This time I remember to actually have them graduate from high school first, and then have them go to university. The graduation reception is eventless and the next day girls leave for higher education. Danzig is thrilled because he'll soon have the whole house to himself and he thinks university is for suckers.

"Bye, suckers!"

Fendi and Macy show support in the form of synchronized cheering.

"Have fun, girls! Don't forget to call once in a while!"

Bestie cousins have another double birthday, this time, at the movie theater, because we still don't have a proper venue to throw parties at. Anyways, girls are beautiful. Sid is still a copy of her mother; she reminds me of Lucas even more than Prada did. She also repeats her mother's fate regarding daddy issues. So her first wish as a young adult is to become besties with her father, Brendon.

Whereas, Rollins decides to spend the entirity of her coming-of-age party inside a dumpster - until she throws up... 🤢

Danzig the kid enjoys his childhood, sporting his favourite colour.

Girls have a spooky birthday party at dusk with poltergeist possessing several objects at the park. Fendi gets a break to celebrate and Prada just loves her horse the most.

After the celebration Sid and Rollins rush to the clothing store to pretty up. Unfortunaly, it's certain that Sid is basically a copy of her mother minus the hair colour; while Rollins seems to take after both of her parents.

But I am most curious of how Danzig will fare, since he doesn't resemble anyone yet.

Not much going on other than more birthdays. Cousins are children now. Rollins is a good mixture of her parents - too bad she's not the heir. Danzig enjoys sitting on the laps of adults, thanks to this mod. And Prada is having a mid-life crisis after a private celebration of her new age with her brothers and the children.

Sid and Rollins are finally toddlers - my favourite life stage until young adulthood. Everything goes well until I start hearing people's crying among the cheerings and toot toots. Aging up the babies is painful enough when every single one of those sims wants to put the damn baby in the crib. Seeing kids age up properly Roxie thinks it's time to hijack this birthday party.

Everyone's mood is immediately ruined. Even Macy looks genuinely sad. And the party pooper looks very content with herself. This grumpy old woman can finally meet Lucas again. Let's see how the funeral goes...
