Gen 3 Chapter 41: Choosing an heir and other life events

I worry about Nemo. Everyone forgets about him. I'm honestly not even sure if he's been doing his homework or not! What does he do in his spare time? Does he have any friends? No one knows.



So I suppose he probably wasn't surprised that we all forgot his birthday. Even with everything that has been going on, you'd think we could have gotten him a cake or something!



Since I've managed to make it to Creature-Robot Crossbreeder and Nemo is officially a teen, I suppose it's time to actually pick an heir. Who should carry on my family legacy? Nemo, who looks so much like me and has the same life goals?



Sebastian, who's always so serious and is well on his way to becoming the Surgeon he dreams of being?



Or Ariel... She marches to the beat of her own drummer, that's for sure. But is she responsible enough to take on this challenge?



I knew it was time to decide and Gwyn had been bugging me about it for ages, but it was such a tough decision! In the end, though, I went with my heart... my girl is going to live an interesting life and that can only add excitement to our family's story! Ariel may not have any solid ambitions just yet, but she's got a great head on her shoulders.



And she won't be easily swayed by anything or anyone! That girl knows how to be herself without caring what anyone else thinks!



So. This is my last entry as voice of the Hodgins family. Ariel will be taking over and we'll all be starting a new adventure! It's time. I just hope the new place has a hot tub for me to enjoy in my leisure years.



It's time to pass the torch!




****************
A/N: So we finally come to the end of Zeke's journey as heir. He had a good run but I can't wait to move on! (Though part of that is probably due to the glitches making game play ridiculous.) Ariel really is the most interesting child to pass the torch to, so how could I resist? She's a crazy cat lady in the making!

Oh! And Nemo had been going to school, but he's too lazy to do any homework. He was "punished" at his birthday by getting the "handy" trait forced on him. Like that's a negative!


Outtakes!

Awww, look, half of the family actually got up for Nemo's birthday! Poor Nemo.


Again with the wrong side of the bed Sebastian? Really? It's not like the furniture has moved.


Sad, empty house. At least Zeke can get some sleep with his trusty sleeping bag. I'm not sure why everyone changed into their bathing suits for the move, though.
