2. If his Legacy was to continue, Arthur needed a wife, but who? While he had masterminded the marriages of his older children, Mathias felt a certain reluctance when it came to his son and heir. If Arthur were truly to carry on the Legacy, shouldnât he choose his own wife?
3. And so Arthur was sent out to the park in search of a likely candidate.
6. And looked. AN: This gem ended up marrying Malcolm Landgraab. Luckily, she aged to elder before either of them could pass along their genes and further pollute the shallow Sunset Valley pool.
12. Hungry and discouraged, Arthur ended up at the bistro where he was greeted with crepes and a surprising âWoohoo withâŚâ opportunity. After a day of futile searching and a few glasses of bistro nectar, it seemed like a good idea. Blind though he may be, Arthur is a good boy and popped the all important marriage question to his fling.
13. Who turned out to be married. A quick woohoo in the bistro restroom was fine by Lisa, but amorous hugs and this relationship talk was too much for the married woman. Way to go, programing.
14. They parted amicably, indulging in a first, and last, jam session after she shot him down.
15. So, how do you feel your boy did last night, Mathias? Thatâs quite a scowl.
17. It didnât take long for Mathias to make his move. The very next morning⌠Arthur: ⌠wtf.
18. It was a party. All the eligible young woman in Sunset where invited. Very Cinderella, Mathias. Except eligibility was determined by the attractiveness of their phonebook headshots. Not marital status. Classy.
19. Still. Some uglies snuck in. The redhead is Ursine spawn. She wasnât on the guest list.
29. Hullo, there blue-eyes. Are you sure youâre old enough for this party? Marisol: Course I am. Itâs just the pigtails that make me look like jailbait.
31. Kateâs been sent to Get to Know this candidate. Her hair is a murkier brown than ideal, but those eyes are something else.
32. One of the other guests seemed to notice Kateâs importance in the marriage decision and made a beeline for her as she began to talk to Marisol.
33. Meanwhile Arthur did some socializing of his own. New!Butler didnât approve. Even though she had her hair down now. New!Butler: Iâm quitting if you marry her, sir.
34. Eventually, the three most likely girls were wrangled into the drawing room. (Where Kate draws/paints. Harr). For the sake of fairness, they were made to have the same hairstyle⌠which may be why Caroline looks terrified. Caroline: What have I gotten myself into?!
35. Donât worry Caro, just pose for the camera. She fits the house, donât you think? Very English horsewoman-y. Caroline: Neurotic, Schmoozer, Clumsy, Friendly. (Mixologist).
36. The butlerâs nemesis, Jocelyn. Purple eyes like Kate, and pearls. Good touch, girl. Youâll fit right in. Jocelyn: Flirty, Hydrophobic, Mean Spirited, Loser. (Pizza delivery girl). ⌠Charming. (Pity, sheâs my favorite gene donor, looks-wise).
37. Marisol. Did you have to wear the yellow, cartoon mummy shirt, Marisol? Marisol: Good, Family Oriented, Neat, Athletic. (Butler). And nowâŚ
38. Wtf, EA. Wtf. Is it just me or are they triplets with dye jobs and varying levels of sun exposure?
39. Jocelyn thinks she has this, and the house, in the bag. Cozying up to mom, clever woman. If only you were evil instead of mean spiritedâŚ
40. Arthur seemed to have warmed to the arranged marriage idea, or maybe itâs just his party animal trait showing.
41. Arthur: Iâll marry her, and have children, and be able to carry on Fatherâs legacy⌠Mathias got to you good, huh? Hero worship isnât exactly healthy kid. Well, anyway, which girlâs caught your eye?
42. Arthur: Um⌠You donât know? Arthur: Theyâre just all so similar, itâs hard to choose. Maybe the readers can help you thereâŚ
43. Arthur: Readers? What readers? Donât destroy my optimism, Arthur. Arthur: Iâm alone in this decision, Iâm doom. Doooomed! Hello, excitable trait.
