Strangetown and Twin Oaks Park
Jul. 14th, 2005 10:28 pmYup, did double duty. Played a day of the Browns in Strangetown, and a day of the Elder/Emily Von Brauns in Twin Oaks Park. Got my goals for them accomplished too -- Eileen has made it into private school, and Sabastian is living with the Von Brauns.
-D: Well, that's good. How is Sabastian?-
Well, he is indeed a Popularity Sim. He also has an interesting personality -- 10 Outgoing, 3 Nice, and 4 in everything else. He had a bunch of "Get a ____ Job" wants when I moved him in. I decided that he's going to be an Athletic Sim, since I don't have any of those yet. I left him working out to the TV.
-VD: *surprised* He only has 3 Nice?-
That's what I said! Well, he's perfectly decent to other Sims, so I guess it's okay. Strangely enough, I think he grew up into Elias's old suit:

-TeenDoc: Ugh. Poor Sabastian.-
Don't worry, I'll buy him proper clothes soon enough.
In Strangetown, I started Saturday off early with Doc, who woke up to go to the bathroom. I decided to have him study Cooking in order to fulfill his want of maxing it out. Sometime around 5, he did just that.

Everyone else eventually woke up -- Lorraine did a lot of interacting with her daughter while Marty painted. Doc also took a turn with little Eileen:

After everyone had some form of breakfast and had bathed, peed, all of that, George invited the headmaster over for dinner, then called up Clara to chat. Marty used his cell to call Ophelia Nigmos and David Gibbons, two of his lowest-ranked friends. Doc invited Mysteria over for some romantic interaction, while Marty listened to his MP3 player.

-J: *snrrrk*-
-M: Oh, come on, I don't headbang.-
You should have seen some of the other animations. I worked Doc and Mystie up to a Make-Out session, then let her go home. George encouraged some activity in Eileen before allowing her to bake a muffin (which she burned). I decided to let Doc lick a plate clean, just for fun:

-OD: Now that would be useful. You'd just lick your dishes, and they'd disappear, like magic.-
I know. Doc called up Gypsy and chatted for a bit, while Marty called Tiffany. I had Lorraine start some Lobster Thermidor at 4:30 as to be in time for the headmaster. She cooked it perfectly, so it was ready when Headmaster Elmer showed up. After getting temporarily distracted by the chess board (grr) he ended up having dinner with Marty.

Doc and Eileen are studying skills in the background -- cooking for her, cleaning for him. Lorraine then took Elmer on a tour while Marty sold his latest painting (a Masterpiece, so he got a want boost) and everyone went to bed. After a successful chat, Eileen was admitted, giving George a nice aspiration boost.

-M: That's nice. I'm glad you're taking good care of my little sister.-
:D
-OD: *pokes with tentacles* Fanart?-
Having a lot of conflicting ideas, let me sort them out first.
-OD: Conflicting ideas?-
The Stargate/BTTF vs. Teen Doc related.
-OD: Oooh.-
-Emily: The choice is obvious.-
I didn't ask for your opinion.
-Holly: You're getting it anyway. Emmett's the way to go.-
You are aware that the main pic in my head is him in his underwear, with grease up to his elbows and holding a wrench, a la This Page of Girl Genius?
-Emily+Holly: ...-
-TeenDoc: Does she have an obsession with seeing us in some form of undress?-
-Docs: Ooooo yeah.-
