Ah-hahaha! I love how four out of the five kids are either glaring into the distance or simply have their backs turned on the rest of their family. And I know this is purely default Sim style, but I can't help but imagine some extra forced happy obliviousness in Mary Sue and Buzz' facial expressions. I love it. :D
Yes! XD And meanwhile Buck is at the edge of the group, arms spread, invisible thought bubble: "Just a few more steps and I'm free. Just a few more steps and I'm FREEEEEE!" I have to say, though. I'm rather fond of Mary-Sue, but I kind of wish Maxis had made her adoptive parents breed out a daughter. I mean, have you looked at the Oldies? Herb's a hottie but somewhat generic, whereas his wife is very unique.
Cute little Buck is always so cheerful in the loading screen. He tries too look on the bright side (but why is he so dramatic? He's supposed to be shy).
I haven't taken a really close look at the Oldies, but I will, now that you've mentioned it. They'll be at the wedding, so I'll have plenty of opportunity to examine them during that. Now... who else should I invite? The Goths? I suppose the Burbs should come, even though it would be a bit awkward. (This is so much fun!)
Hmmm. Definitely the Goths and the Burbs. Dirk and Dustin as well, in case you're keeping them the girls' boyfriends? Plus, since Daniel and Dustin have a mutual hate/hate thing going on Mary-Sue might invite the trailer trash kid just to spite her ex further. :D
