Cerebrus Windling Deals with Teenagers
So now Cerebrus and Veronica were living with Cerebrus' brother Cael and their three youngest children, Epona, Erato and Erebrus. Oh, and the family zombie of course. The twins were in the home stretch working on scholarships, here they are playing identical games of billiards.
"You so aren't going to make that shot." "Well, neither are you!"
Cael meanwhile made §100,00 in record time using the buy and sell a lot method. After that I got him a job in the career path he wanted and put him on stargazing duty.
"Aw, do I have to?"
Erebrus may be the youngest, but he's not the only person in the house still wanting to have fun. Blowing bubbles with the kids after school is a great way to up the social of elders.
"Now, whatever you do, don't tell your friends and teachers at school that we let you do this."
It wasn't long, though, before Erebrus left childhood behind and became a teenager. I rolled Pleasure.
"Time to really have some fun!"
Another Saturday rolls around!
Second Bloodline, Sixth Generation: from left to right across the back are Cael, Mercury and Erebrus, across the front are Erato, Veronica, Cerebrus and Epona.
The relationship wasn't what it should have been between Erato and Eros so I had her give him some expensive gifts to get the relationship high enough to transfer the bite.
"Here you go! A §6,000 statue. What you always wanted, right?"
Sure enough, with a little influencing from Mercury, Eros was ready to pass on his vampirism.
"Now, just hold still..."
Then I had Erato pass her vampirism on to Epona.
"It'll be cool, I promise!"
Sure enough, they both made pretty good vampires.
"Bleh..." "Bleh!"
Then I sent each of them off to college.
"Good-bye, Windling Gables..."
"...hello FUN Greek House!"
Off at college it was the last day of winter, time for another portrait! And, yes, they are posed by personality, with the four wacky ones in front, and the four normalish ones in back. Gotta love wacky alien genes!
FUN Greek House: from left to right across the back are Dylan, Valora, Damon and Vidya, across the front are Vijaya, Valene, Verdandi and Vikrama.
I had this weird glitch at college were I got no money on a daily basis for my businesses. I would just call and it would say that I couldn't call before the business opened or something like that. It worked just fine from the home lot though, so I wasn't bothered by it. So, to make money, I had to go out and have Dylan manually run the business himself. For some reason he lost stars in the few days he was gone so I had him earn them back for the first business before going on to the second.
"The weather outside is frightful, but the bar is so delightful..."
Even though it was delightful inside, some still went out to spin on the dance spheres and soak in the hot tub, yes in the middle of a thunderstorm. One customer in particular got burned by it.
"Ouch..."
As the night wore on Veronica and Cerebrus turned up. I guess they wanted to show all those young people how to really party!
"If you can't dance to this you ain't got nothing for me, baby."
Also during all of this I had Dylan work on his friendships. I had a dastardly plan in the works and it required him befriending as many knowledge Sims as possible, no matter the age.
"Are you going to be okay? A little tired? Want something to drink?"
Of course I also had him maintain relationships with the playables as well. Family is family after all.
"Yes, it's raining. We are standing in the rain, getting wet. Can I hug you now, or not?"
I moved on to work on the second business a little before calling it a night. Or, a week as far as Dylan was concerned. Cerebrus and Cael both show up and goofed off together in the hot tub. Ah, brotherly love.
"Don't splash me, bro!"
While working on upping this second business Dylan finally made his 30th Best Friend. I'm so proud of him. Not even out of college yet!
"I'm pretty good at busting a move, huh?"
Points Earned: One point for Cael earning §100,000. One point for Dylan making 30 Best Friends. Epona and Erato earned two points in scholarships.

Wow-great update!
Your skills at acheiving legacy points truly amazes me. I also loved that shot of the twins playing identical pool games. lol
In that photo of Eros passing on his vampirism to Erato (did I get that right? :P) it looks like Mercury is watching and looking bored. I suppose its because he's seen it happen, what, 10 times? :P
Is this your last post then before sometimes next year? Well, if it is, have a merry christmas and a happy new year. Hope you have a great time and make a great new years resolution. Until then!
