But Grim is nothing if not dead inside, and unsurprisingly he chose not to spare Betsy that night.

Perhaps he saw it as a cruel, but fitting, punishment to the queen of evil who had kept him so busy over the years. Whatever the reason, just like that, the glue at the very heart of this legacy was…. gone.

The irony of this awful, awful tragedy was lost on neither Nancy, nor the Watcher.

Just as peace had finally befallen the Landgraabs, thanks wholly to the patience and persistence of our truly wonderful third generation heir who had sought to redefine what it means to be a Landgraab, it had once again been ripped away, and in the cruellest of ways.

Betsy Landgraab; powerful witch, coven leader, tamer of Nancy herself, bested by a pink stereo with cat ears.

Even as it was happening, the Watcher sat smugly by, assuming it would just end in a slightly charred, but otherwise unharmed, Betsy.

But that was not the case. After the electric shock ceased, Betsy did not rise again.

Nancy and Sul Sul were at the scene within seconds, but they could do nothing but stand idly by.

I was doing some blog maintenance and realised I hadn't shared a more up to date version of my Kattan-Landgraab Legacy family tree 🌳

I'm not planning to go back to them (or TS4) right now or anything, but still thought I'd share!

real talk: this isn't actually completely up to date - something utterly utterly terrible happened in-game the last time I played (and maybe that's why I havent opened it back up again in months haha)

[tedsies]

“Can you, like, STOP THAT already!”

[tedsies]

When Grim arrived, Nancy fell to her knees, begging for the reprieve of her granddaughter-turned-guardian.

“Please, your Grimness! I know I, of all people, have no right to ask for your mercy, but please… Betsy is the best of us… you know it…she doesn't deserve this…”

[tedsies]

Betsy did, of course, say yes 💞

Sul Sul and Betsy Landgraab, my all-time favourite Sims couple, are finally getting married 🫶

[tedsies]

“Grim….. no…. please…. take me instead, I beg you…”

[tedsies]

Grim made a sound half-resembling a laugh, if such a thing was even possible from him.

“HA! Yes, it is rather rich that you of all people now dare to ask me for mercy. How many have I had to reap over the years because of your… handiwork? I admit it is rather unfortunate that your kindhearted granddaughter now has to pay the price, but thats’s why they call karma such a llama.”

[tedsies]

Instead of the aforementioned fireworks, there came just… well, sparks.

Betsy had simply been fixing the stereo, with her and Sul Sul planning to have a final birthday nightcap by the pool after that.

But fate had other plans (yes, fate! the Watcher had nothing to do with this).

[tedsies]

sigh.

And then… well… the faint of heart should probably avert their eyes.

For later that evening….

Something truly terrible happened.

[tedsies]

Sul Sul aged into an adult! 🥳

He looks even more handsome than before, in the Watcher’s humble opinion.

[tedsies]

Queenie is a Child! ✨

She had a birthday party, but the Watcher refused to take another set of party pics so soon after the last lot.

Woops. Look at me already favouring Dag Dag.

I'm actually just playing TS2 at the moment, but I have a bunch of legacy screenies to share so maybe this will finally give me a chance to get caught up lol

"I don't know, Nancy... This whole thing seems, well, kinda dumb... I should just go ask my dad about this..."

Nancy sighed.

"I don't know what to tell you, Sandy... If there's no tail, then you know what that means... and if you're not a mermaid, then you can't be a Kattan either... so maybe you're adopted? Wow, maybe these people, whoever they are, have just been lying to you this whole time..."

[tedsies]

“That was a wonderfully romantic dinner, Sul Sul. It’s been a perfect night… but… why did you bring us up to this spot? It’s the middle of winter, and the Watcher is suspiciously refusing to let us change out of our Formalwear.”

[tedsies]

I love him 😭💚

[tedsies]

Betsy observed Nancy suspiciously. She seemed… different.

“Umm… right… is everything okay, grandma?”

“Oh, yes! I just feel… awfully Cheerful, I suppose. Such a peaceful night... and this cake… so yummy! How'd you get it to taste so good? There's surely something special in it this time? A new ingredient, perhaps?”
