So here we go, a session from the Nexus household. If no one's interested in the hijinxs of my characters, then here's a recap of everything involving the forum sims:
-Conall went to the Mod's household in the middle of the night to read to Bio's daughter and I don't think he even noticed the strange man in his house talking to his daughter
-SOS, Crack, Heisen, and Tormunds all started wearing really weird outfits that I didn't make for them
-Eve drained Sonic's life force, stealing his memories, but no one noticed, including Sonic, because he literally has no life outside of trying to become an internet celebrity
-Cedric made up with Carlos, but then went ahead and fought TKA. Jake was there and for some reason was on Cedric's side
-SOS dug through garbage, went to the gym, and was kind of just in the background for the whole session?
-SOS attended Eve and Rowan's wedding, and while at first he was sitting in a corner, being lonely and eating chips, he and Eve talked and I like to imagine he finally moved on, and wished her and her wife well. Or maybe he was bitter and dismissive, who knows, I don't speak simlish, I'll leave it up to SOS what his sim said
-Oh yeah and Eve turned Sonic into a vampire. He laughed evily, smiled, and walked away, plotting. So uh, sorry about that, but I think people might start dying
Emery accomplished his goal of being the best Club Owner. Nexus is connected to the community and high society, well respected, and throws killer parties. The next logical step is to start building connections of his own. Gave him the Friend of the World Aspiration. Unfortunately, the trait he got from completing the club owner aspiration is pretty lame, he can instantly take over any club, and he can't have a club he owns taken from him. Plus his club gets points quicker, which is kinda useful for buying club stuff, like skill boosters when there's a gathering.
So Conall's been stuck on his aspiration for a while since he can't read to his child, since Zola start as a teenager. Luckily, the neighbors have a kid now. I sent him over to the Mods household to read to Elizabeth.
It was around Elizabeth's bed time, but I was getting pretty involved in the sims' lives and getting them through their aspirations, so I just decided to have conall wake her up so he could read to her.
So I guess Bio's perspective on this is just: Nothing weird about a strange man coming into your apartment in the middle of the night to read to your daughter and then talk to her in her room. No need to check in on them, the strange man is probably a better parent anyway.
So uh... Eve and Rowan decided to woohoo... but then they got stuck... they just... wouldn't leave the bed. Must've really been having a good time, because they really wouldn't listen to me at all when I told them to stop, they just stayed there woohooing for hours.
Eventually decided to kill two birds with one stone, forced them to go on a date both to get them out of the bed, and also to fufill Eve's soulmate aspiration. Kind of forgot about the sun though...
Decided to active Eve's alluring visage power to help out with the date...
Unfortunately it... didn't really go well. Rowan just didn't seem to be affected by it, and it kept draining Eve's dark energy so she had to keep taking pauses from talking and flirting with Rowan to drink plasma. The date did end up going pretty well... not that the game would acknowledge it. It was only a "bronze" date by the end, but only because the game glitched and wouldn't count Eve and Rowan socializing, so while they definitly met the main goal of socializing 10 times, it just... never counted.
Emery and Gavin ended up having a much better date at the park. They had a really good time just walking around and talking to each other, played a chess game before it got late and Gavin went home.
Emery decided to stick around a bit longer though and introduce himself to the people walking by, he met Crack, dressed as a circus ringmaster as usual
He also met Tormunds... and... didn't look at him while he introduced himself? Um, okay
He met Zyphon, too, but she was weirdly tense and kind of dismissive... and also wearing like, some really preppy outfit? Okay.
Emery ended up getting invited to a party at a nightclub by one of his new friends and... uh, okay... what... what is Crack wearing? This isn't one of the weird outfits I made for him, this is just... something he decided to wear, I guess. That's... yeah, that's certainly a look I guess.
Oh, Heisen's there, too... and also wearing one of those hats. Uh, is this just a fashion trend that's really hot right now in the sims world, or....?
Wow, um, okay, that hat and those glasses really don't go with that sweater SOS. I swear I didn't design these really weird looking outfits, they... all just decided to start indulging some,.. really weird fashion sense.
Sherrif Tormunds is heren
lol what a fucking square
Does... Does Bio pay attention to his child, like, at all?
Aw, Eve and Rowan became best friends
Oh look, it's
Eve's perpetual victim and guinea pig Sonic
Now the really sad thing about this, is that Eve is draining his life force, which gives him amnesia. Except, Sonic has absolutely no life, so he acted completely the same after having his memories stolen by a vampire as he did before
He was passed out for like.... a really long time after this... you'll see.
Elizabeth came home sick from the hospital..
And immediately passed out. I think I might move her into a smaller household with some of the other characters from my TWD story. I think she's been getting overshadowed in these sessions since all she really does it work. (which I mean, kinda fits her personality pre-Turn in the story)
So Cedric's arch-nemises Carlos came over, and the two of them had a.... chat
...it actually went pretty well. They made up over their previous fight, and Carlos decided to go inside to listen to Zola play the violin for a bit. They still don't like each other, but hey, that went better than I could've possibly expected.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as well with Jayko, who was standing over Sonic, wondering what happened to him.
TKA joined in, too
Fortunately, TKA seemed to win over Cedric, and eased the tension between him and Jake
......I said
seemed to win over Cedric. I didn't say he actually did
And... then for some reason Jake is angry at TKA??
Well, Sonic finally waked up after all the commotion was over
lol
Taking a little break from posting screenshots since it's late, and there are a lot of them, and they're all out of order since they won't load in order on imgur when I upload them. Anyway, Jake and TKA just kind of hung out at the apartment after Cedric fought TKA. I realized that the new step in Conall's aspiration was the have 3 children, so I just switched it over to bodybuilding, since he's already got a really high fitness skill and lots of equipment and hours working out.
So in his story, after a significant thing happens to Emery, there's a bit of a timeskip, and he changes his appearance, growing out his beard and shaving his hair short. Since he changed his aspiration in the sims, I decided to switch his appearance over to that look. I can't his outfit, keeping the green and brown colorscheme, but changing his clothes from fancy clothes to outwear. It's not a super noticeable change, but idk I just wanted to play with the character creator a bit after checking what new clothes Cedric got from his promotion(not much).
Decided to have Emery go out into the city to meet some more new people and found SOS just... digging through the trash...
...He wanted to dance in the trash...
...moving on
You meet some strange people in the big city
Oh wow, I actually didn't tell her to do this, but Rowan proposed to Eve! That's adorable!
So in creating Kiernon, a character from my TWD Story, I decided to play with the advanced gender options in the sim creator. See, being the sjw trash that I am, I thought it'd be neat to have a typical Walking Dead badass in the vein of Jesus, Michonne, Daryl, etc., but they're a trans man. Proportionally, trans women tend to get more representation in the media, and they also tend to have better representation. Trans women gets to have entire shows like Transparent, and there's even a new one coming soon, and they get to be badasses, like Nomi from Sense8. Trans men typically get to be the butt of mean jokes. So, I wanted to have a character in my TWD story that was a trans man, and gets to have the typical TWD larger-than-life badass role. Anyway, back to Sims, well, there are advanced gender options, where now gender, physical frame, and fashion sense are all separate things. Decided to make Kiernon a male character with a female frame. Unfortunately, it made him look... pretty weird.
...anyway, yeah, big long tangent section, sorry about that.
Conall met Kiernon while going to the gym to workout.
You'd think this wouldn't happen to a sim with a level 7 fitness skill, but it did.... four times
SOS was also at the gym. Man, SOS seems to be showing up everywhere in the background of this section. Wonder if it's foreshadowing for a big arc for him next session?
So uh... these people were just... standing outside the apartment... for the whole night... not at all creepy.
Well, this random vampire walked into the apartment
So of course Cedric had to fight her
Trusn out you can keep fighting the same person for the "fight five people goal", so I decided to just... have Cedric keep fighting the vampire until he lost...
Except he never did. He went 5-0 with a fucking vampire
And uh, turns out there were two vampires in the apartment.... you know what that means
Yeah he didn't do so good against the second one
Elizabeth went in to work, and Elizabeth was at the hospital... Without her father. Seriously, Bio is the worst dad ever
(also I just now realized that Elizabeth has the same name as... well, Elizabeth. Huh)
Sonic are you okay?
lol the whole time Cedric was fighting the vampires and everyone was watching, Zola was just playing the violin
Rowan why are you making Salad on the bathroom counter you realize you have a kitchen
Well, I decided to turn Sonic into a vampire
He... looks pretty pleased about it
...this isn't good
I... don't know what this is.... okay
So Eve's vampire friend came over and the two of them decided to have a duel of vampiric powers
It looked pretty cool in motion
Huh, Eve actually won even though I never gave her any combat abilities
Appaerently this is Lilitth training Eve's vampiric abilities... okay
Time for the wedding and- Fuck I forgot about the sun again. Thankfully I was able to get Eve inside quickly
Everyone having a good time before the ceremony... except for Cedric, who immediatly fell asleep on a bench and I don't think woke up until the after it was over
Uh, Eve, the ceremonies about the start where the heck are you going??
?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ??
Oh, and... now she's coming back
...
okay
Nerves I guess
Of course everyone gravitates to the bar
...what the fuck
My favorite thing about the wedding was how Eve appeared for the ceremony emerging from a cloud of black mist as a bat before transforming into a human #vampireweddinggoals
Aw, well that was adorable
...would've been better if any of the guests were watching, but still, adorable
Well, the party begins and... why, why are they dancing in a conga line like that what the fuc
Whelp, the caterer never showed up so Rowan had to bake her own wedding cake. At least she seemed to have fun doing it
Aw, SOS ended up going off in a corner by himself, eating chips and being lonely
Eve came out and talked to him soon after. I can't understand simlish, but I imagine they had an emotionally cathartic conversation that ened with SOS saying he's happy for her or something and Eve saying she's happy he's moved on.
Anyway, next time I go back to the main household, and we've got another wedding there, plus keeping up on SOS's romantic ventures, and whatever Crack gets himself mixed up in. Should be fun.
