TS2 - Legacy Cove - Week 22
On Campus
I'm so excited to be back on campus with a bunch of the generation four YOUNG ADULTS! They aren't kids anymore, are they? They're really growing up well. Let me re-introduce the Sims here at university.
Juniors/Seniors
Romance - Gemini - Fitness freak
3-10-10-1-3
Family - Virgo - Science
10-1-7-7-2
Whew, so that's three that we'll have graduating at the end of this. And five incoming freshmen to get acclimated. I have the house split with 4 rooms on each side, so there's a girls' wing and a boys' wing. And so I started out with Shawn and Uri living on a separate lot but decided to temporarily bunk them in on the girls' side until the other 3 graduate. I make things a lot more complicated than they need to be sometimes!
There's not a lot to document from the first few days. It was a lot of getting the new kids settled in, finding a routine for six boys to use one toilet and two showers upstairs (there's another bathroom downstairs but this house/dorm isn't my best layout), and checking out what's on the chemistry meters.
And way too early, we have a love triangle. I teamed Uri and Shawn up to be BFFs since they were my two nature nuts. Uri is also BFFs with his cousin Treva. Treva is innocent in the next part. Uri and Shawn are both 3-bolts for a uni townie named Renee Spitzig. With all the chaos of eight sims coming and going and inviting over so many available suitors to check chemistry, I didn't notice both boys were digging Renee. I just knew she had 3-bolts of attraction with one of the freshmen boys and I was really focusing first on the three upcoming graduates. Soo... we have ourselves a lil' Bermuda Triangle now.
Yup, this is a mess waiting to happen. But first... I let one of them cook mac-n-cheese. We've got fires to put out everywhere now.
So I had the boys send Renee home for the night so we can get facts straight and figure out what to do. Jen Tucker was also over and I had them send her home too. Uri got pretty hands-on with the goodbye. I thought there might be hope here.
So the next day.... Shawn makes his move on Renee without consulting me. But I think, okay, so Shawn will end up with Renee and Uri with Jen.
Laugh in Simlish with me. Uri is young and lookin' for LOVE. And hell, it's not even spring yet. Uri, what am I going to do with you?
Well, first things first, luckily we have two farmers and there's strawberries in the juicer from the previous generation. I sent Shawn to drink some strawberry juice and cool his jets.
I'll get the boys straightened out but meanwhile... I'll scout out some other potentials for each of them. It's going to be hard maintaining them as best buds when they are both in love with the same girl.
I let the kids spend their school grant simoleans as we pondered our options. We put the **@)! train up in the attic and Xayden bought a pool table. There's also a few new plants courtesy of our nature nuts, and I can't even remember what else. I apparently shop blindly when I'm annoyed.
All has not been a love fail though. Vincent is digging Ceera. He loves going jogging one or two times a day (please calm down, Vincent) and real-life Ceera operates a day camp for kids that focuses on fitness. It seems like a match made in heaven!
Yes, Ceera! Call him, maybe?
The girls meanwhile.... No 3-bolters for Treva at all that I can find. And Yvonne has too many. So the girls are on the back burner right now and largely unsupervised. Treva is fine. She's always playing PC games. Go gamer girl power! But Yvonne....
She's been on the telescope. During the day. And I guess Cassie is the new finger-poker in town? That, I did not expect!
So back to my Bermuda Triangle.
Renee kind of made the decision. Which, silly me, was the right way to do this all along. Shawn has met Noelle Garth, a nice family sim that was with the generation three uni students. Renee who? So this just turned out splendidly.
We've got crushes, and Shawn doesn't even react! What a relief. The love triangles are so frustrating to me. Some people like the drama. I absolutely do not.
I have a feeling though that we're not out of the woods on the drama...
Dang, Yvonne. Xavier!? Really? The others are Bursty Bodkin (my real-life adopt-a-kid), Brandon Deppiesse, and Marsh Mellon (both of the latter from the old neighborhood).
And we can't forget that there's a Romancer here with no 3-bolters at all. So Zavoy's torn between Claire Reamon, a university townie....
And Laken Dallas, another cross over from the old neighborhood.
Oh, and Zavoy also wants to have three loves at once. Boy, you wildin'.
And you know what I do NOT need right now? Roaches. Thank you, security bot for notifying me that Hyun kicked our trash can.
Well, we get to wrap up the dating game for a while now. Three of the boys are graduating! Time to send them back to the Cove!
Oh, I forgot to re-introduce you all to Xavian's red she-devil. Her name is Morrdredd Montana, her real-life version is a gaming friend of mine. I had thoughts of Xavian not getting married and having an alien baby perhaps but he has 3-bolts with Morrdy which I just can't ignore. Although he can.... He wants to talk to her and spend time with her... but not be romantic with her. We'll work on that back in the 'hood.
Xayden pulled the short stick of being a bachelor. I feel guilty but he hasn't really told me otherwise. Except that, as a fortune sim, he wants to marry a rich sim. Sigh. These boys....
Thanks for reading!
