Note: Welcome back fair readers! I want to thank everyone who voted in the heir poll- you guys are amazing! With that being said- our second generation heir is....... Miss Scarlet Viridi *cue party poppers and confetti* I'm so excited- it's a lot of fun to write for Scarlet- it's going to be a fun ride :) But first, I wanted to take one chapter and really wrap up Elliots story. I had some ideas about where that was going, but since he's not the heir, I had to scrap most of them. However, I figured it would be cute to go ahead and send him out of the house in style. Consider this 2.0 to be a prolouge of sorts. We will officially pick up with Scarlet and stay with her story in 2.1 onward. Enough of my blathering, let's get started! We find our new heiress doing what she does best- Violin-ing. How's it going Miss Scarlet? "Fine. I'm finishing an old world piece." Fun. Maybe working on your writing would be a good idea too. What with you being a writer or whatever. "Maybe YOU right a book. How about that?" Fair enough. I suppose I can't complain, she's already made far more progress than her mother did at her age. And look at you Kels- You've really made something of yourself. I'm sure Video Games is a really marketable skill. "Take that sarcasm to my livestream followers." You wouldn't think watching an old lady play 'The R.E.F.U.G.E' for hours on end would be something people would want to watch, but here we are. I'd rather not have you working with electronics until your aspiration is complete. I did not put in this much effort so you could kick the bucket right before the end game. "Well it's not like I can ask Elliot. He's been so wrapped up in that girlfriend of his that we barely see him these days." Oh yeah- he's dating Sofia. Do you have any thoughts about your son dating someone who is literally a member of the Golden Girls? ".....I don't disapprove. She's a nice person, but......." But what? "I mean, she's older than ME. I don't care who my son loves, but he's going to lose her sooner than later. He refuses to talk about it, but I know he thinks about it." True. But what can you do about it? Love is blind afterall. "I guess. I just.....don't want my son to get hurt. Does that make me a bad person?" No- just a mom. He'll be fine Kels. I promise. "If you say so." Meanwhile, I don't think Scarlet has much of a career as a motivational speaker. "UGHScarletwhyareyoumakingmedothisItsoundssooooobad.Itslikeliterallytheleastfunthingintheworld.Ihatethis.I'dratherbeplayingwithMangoorevendoinghomeworkoreven-" "Because you need the skillwork. Adulthood will be here before you know it.You're my baby sister and I love you- but suck it up and hit those notes." "ButScaaaaarlllleetttwhyyyyyyyyy......." "And for the love of the Watcher-take a breath when you talk." THANK YOU. At least Paola will always be the chill one. Just 'dancing through life' and being all zen. I'll miss you sweet, quiet Paola. Upon adulthood she gained the 'insider' trait to assist her dream of leading the wildest club this side of Newcrest. Paola moved in with some club friends in Windenburg, so I'm sure we'll be seeing her around. Scarlet likes to take a more 'tough love' approach to parenting. Kelly and Paolo are a lot more laidback. "I wonder what this stuff tastes like." "Honey, that's play doh." "I bet it's delicious." And where has Sir Elliot been? According to Scarlet, he and Sofia have been inseperable for the last three months. I guess he finally managed to win her over. "Elliot, remind me again why we needed to meet here? I thought we were going to the beach?" "Because, this was where we had our first date, and I felt like this is where we needed to be." "I swear, it's like you're made of romantic fluff." "Well, I love fluff. Sofia... I think you know why I brought you here." "You really are the sweetest person in the world." "Sofia, from the very first time I saw you in that square seven years ago, I knew beyond any shadow of a doubt that you were the only thing in the world that I would ever wish for. You're beautiful, fun, and smart. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I love you Sofia Berjegsen." "Elliot....I love you too. These past few months have been the most amazing of my life. But.....we talked about this. There's quite an age gap...and even if we were REALLY together. There's no telling how long we'd really have. I'd rather just let things peter out naturally rather than leave you behind." "Soph, I know that. Believe me- it's all I think about. But I don't care- I love you and however long we have left togehter- I can't truly be happy unless you're my wife." "Elliot....." "You don't have to give me answer right now. Meet me tomorrow in the square where we met." I'm not crying-you're crying. What the- who's ruinging my momment? You're ruining my emotional and beautiful momment. Go away vampire. There's no food here. "Elliot!" "Soph! I'm so glad you came!" "I thought about what we talked about last night. And....I don't know if I'm making the right decision. Hell- It might be the dumbest thing I've ever done. But- maybe try asking me again." "Sofia Berjergsen, will you be my wife?" "Yes. I absolutley will!" "I love you Elliot Viridi." WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP RUINING MY MOMMENTS? Are you happy with you're choice Sir Elliot? "I am. I really am. I love her- I have since the day I saw her. Do you remember that?" I do, you were super awkward. It was cute. "I can't wait to live what time we have left together. I know Scarlet is gearing up to take over everything. But as long as I have Sofia, I know I'll be happy- for however long that may last." UGH ELLIOT. You're breaking my heart with your Nicolas Sparks poetic sadness. You know what- check you pocket. Call it a 'going away gift'. "What the......is this what I think it is?" There's only one way to find out. "Soph- I have something for you. I think it might be everything we've wished for." "Elliot- we're getting married. Let's just live the time we have." "Babe- just try it. What's the worst that could happen?" "...Okay. Here goes nothing." "Ugh. That tastes like charcoal and glitter. See? Nothing. Now let's plan this thing before I keel over in this bar." ".....Soph....." "What? Is there something on my face?" "Look in the mirror." "WHAT THE-I.......I'm young? WHAT THE- I can't believe this?! How is this even happening?!" "I guess we just have someone looking out for us." "Woo! What are we going to do now?" "There's only one thing I can think of." I'm a sucker for weddings. Wow. They really will do it anywhere. "That was a beautiful ceremony. Reminds me of when I married your mother. Not so much the setting or the budget- but the general aura of love." Now we know where Elliot get's his fluff from. "It was cool." Can I just take a momment and point out that Paola really is Paolo 2.0? It's almost eirie. What's up with you Kels? Didn't you like the ceremony? "Yeah, It was lovely. But my baby got married and I guess I'm feeling nostalgic." For your bathroom wedding? "Very funny." "So are you ever going to tell him?" Tell him what? "We both know that's not how 'young again' potions work. At best it would have just added a few days- you did something to make her young again. So they could have a family." Why Kelly Viridi- are you suggesting that I used my omnipresent voice powers to manipulate the laws of science? That is absurd. Some of us have morals. "Well, whatever you did- you helped my son. Thank You." .....Yeah well......I guess I'm just too nice. "If you say so." Meanwhile- at the Fortress of Solitude, which what I'm calling our newly rennovated TWO STORY home...... We find our new family heiress once again doing what she usually does. Are you ready for this Miss Scarlet? "I was born ready. Bring it."
