Dorrogon: I'm sorry. It was all too much for me. Call me when the Loch Ness Monster arrives! Zzzzzz...
Don't you mean when your child is born? ......Ah, well. We've lost him. Hello, and welcome to the Hyde Legacy, the only legacy whose author had brain surgery four weeks ago. Actually, that may not be entirely true... I'll have to track down all the other legacies and make sure, damn it.

Summer: I'm gonna stretch this baby out of me.
Hooray, the stretching did the trick! Welcome Hyde baby number four. Her name is Astrid, and she is Artistic and Easily Impressed. Named after Astrid from How to Train Your Dragon, naturally. Hm. She seems to have Dorrogon's skintone again, but we'll see when she's older. And since she's not very interesting until then, don't expect many more pictures of her in cocoon stage.
Dorrogon: So, son, I was thinking of giving your Mama flowers...
Armando: God no, Dad, not again! There are four kids in this family!
Dorrogon: ... Ah, what?
Dorrogon's Phone: *photobombs*
Armando: God no, Dad, not again! There are four kids in this family!

Aeryn and Artix: *synchronised sleeping*
Dorrogon: Woo! Partay!
Summer: I will kill him. With a paintbrush. I swear...
Artix: Ignore the fact that walls are down, please. :D
Yeah, the relationship between Dorrogon and Summer has kind of been rocky lately. I think they need some time away together. Remind me to work on that.

Aeryn: *does a sparkly dance*
Why hello there. Aren't you all grown-up now? Aeryn rolled Angler to go with her Clumsy and Virtuoso traits. Hm.
Dorrogon: God damnit, I'm middle-aged. *frowns*
Armando and Aeryn share a room now. :D Hooray for house extensions! Hopefully by the time Artix grows up I'll have enough money to build another bedroom.
Aeryn: Oh, it's on, brother. It's on.
Ah, they're both such little prodigies. I just wish there were musical instruments for kids too. -_-

Summer celebrates her birthday alone by the side of the road, and she also changes her hairstyle, but I don't have any pictures of that yet because I've been TOO BUSY KEEPING ALL MY SIMS ALIVE. And it's hard, especially when Dorrogon insists on going to parties when he's starving and exhausted. I've had to run all over town keeping him fed.
Aeryn: Go away, Zaffie. It's my first day of school, can't you see I'm nervous enough without you taking pictures?
Armando: Chill, sis. You got this.
I see him as the laid-back yet strangely over-protective older brother. :D I can't wait till Aeryn and Astrid start getting boyfriends, he'll be a menace.

Artix, on the other hand, is very obviously the annoying younger brother. He has this trick he likes to pull where he sits down in the middle of the living room and screams even though all his bars are in green and he has no negative moodlets. Then, when everyone ELSE gets a negative moodlet from the crying toddler, he gets the 'Fiendishly Delighted' moodlet and is very happy that he made everyone else sad. GAH. I have known some babies like that in my lifetime.
Oh look, it's Astrid's birthday already.
Can we say glitchy?
Aha, here she is. Meet Astrid Hyde. Isn't she a cutie? She got the albino skintone, red hair and grey eyes all from Dorrogon. Hence the t-shirt. xD
Astrid: Tee hee hee, I'm the cutest. :D
The family unit. I love how with the two older ones (Armando on the left and Aeryn on the right, in case you've forgotten) I have a red-head boy and a blond girl. Then with the two younger ones (Artix on the left and Astrid on the right... you should really know all this) I have a blond boy and a red-head girl. Win. Now all I need is mixed gender twins with different hair colours and it will be a genetic success. xD
Summer heads off for her first day of work in absolutely AGES, and Dorrogon follows in a cooler uniform with a cooler car. Although really that's not Summer's fault, since she's been on maternity leave practically since she moved in. And with any luck she'll have ONE more break before she becomes an elder. Besides, she doesn't have a job-related LTW like Dorrie does, so it's ok. :D
See, told you so!
Summer: Oh look. Pregnant again. And this time my maternity nightie has little sheep on it.

Armando: It's my birthday, whoo!
It's Artix's birthday too. Didn't these two share a birthday last time as well? Hm.

Armando: Who put fireworks in my pants?
Well hello there, Mister Good-Looking. Armando rolled Hydrophobic. Hm.
And here's Artix, who now Loves the Outdoors. In an evil way, of course. I <3 his shirt.
So, let's wrap up this chapter. Next time on the Hyde Legacy.... birthdays, more birthdays, other equally exciting events and maybe a surprise. Don't say I didn't warn you. Catch you all later in CHAPTER NINE. And comment, please. :D
