For some reason I downloaded a mod that increased the percentage of getting abducted by aliens. So instead of getting abducted 0 times in the course of a neighborhood's lifetime, this one has had two: Nacho, and my brother's Sim's daughter. I guess it makes good writing fodder.
Unfortunately he does not have an account here , but then again, he's just now gotten back into playing Sims 2 since he got tired of playing World of Warcraft. Go figure. It's funny because I could probably write a story about his Sim's family as well. Garko Salvadori is a Captain Hero with townie Jan as his wife, who is a Business Tycoon. They have four children: the eldest daughter is married to a townie named Sullivan Barrett, has been abducted by aliens, and has a...uh...homely daughter of her own; a set of twin girls (rare, for even me!) who are in college, and one lone son whom I dared my brother to name Guiseppe. Now poor Garko needs 2 more kids to fulfill his "Marry off 6 Kids" LTW...
Rosemarie was overworked. Sure, she liked being a criminal, and it was quite entertaining to steal, but she would always be too exhausted to talk with her family and friends, and too busy preparing herself for the job to communicate. Soon, it took a toll on her. Go away, Frank. But Rosemarie, dont you want someone to talk to? I have someone right here. Go away. She had brought a colleague from work and was not about to give in to a hallucination. Hes not going to help like *I* could. Arghstupid bunny Why do you hate me? You only did this to yourself.
When Jasmine finally went off to college, Francisco was not sure whether to feel depressed about his only daughter going away, or to feel relieved. The house did not feel so empty, however, since Bender's son Jamie became a teenager. Francisco was not sure what to think about the kid. Jamie wore a camo shirt, khaki shorts, sandals, and sunglasses everywhere. He was going to wear a hat but could not find "the right one." He was the perfect businessman who knew how to make deals successfully. Yet he was a nervous critter, and if he had the chance he would probably pick up an addictive habit like smoking one day, to the chagrin of his adoptive parents. However, his adoptive parents did love him and only asked that he be successful in school, which he was. Meanwhile, Francisco and Brittney were feeling their joints starting to wear down and Brittney was worried about the wrinkles starting to form on her face and the gray starting to show in her hair . "I'm just hoping to age gracefully," Francisco replied. --- Meanwhile, Jasmine and her boyfriend Blake Lawson moved into a large house on the campus of Sim State University. She was hoping that she would only have a few roommates, but the house began to fill with more and more people as the days went on. ---Jasmine and Blake had originally moved in with a girl named Riza Salvadori, a blonde who darkened her hair and was majoring in biology. ---Then Riza's twin sister Celina moved in, and she was the ultimate sorority chick that donned pink clothes and had her hair done in curls. The girl majored in art like Jasmine. ---Jasmine's cousin Alonso joined her, along with Alonso's girlfriend Jade Barrett, whose aunts happened to be...Riza and Celina. ---Then after Alonso and Blake joined the fraternity house later in the second semester, Celina fell in love with a chubby yet lovable nerd named Kevin Beare, and asked the fellow to move in with her. Needless to say, they used what money they all could scavenge together to revamp the rental property into something that could accommodate seven people...which I will take pictures of as soon as my brother has his turn with the place. Hey, we made a bit of a deal since I took his Sims...
Riza Salvadori graduated about a couple semesters after Jasmine arrived at college. By the time Jasmine was a junior in college, she was set in a routine that was dominated by studying philosophy and studying anatomy with her boyfriend Blake. Alonso had the girlfriend of his, but they weren't as lovey and spent more time together in the comforts of the living room, reading or watching television. One day, Jasmine came back from class and she saw a guy who looked just like... "Grandpa?" "What? I'm not your 'Grandpa.'" The guy looked like the ghost of Jasmine's grandfather that floated around her old house. He had the dreadlocks and the facial features, but he had her dad's eyes, whereas Jasmine had her grandfather's eyes...not that she could tell anyway from a white phantasm floating around her yard in the dark. "Wait...are you my cousin?" Alonso looked like a miniature Uncle Javier, and this fellow suddenly looked like a miniature Dad with dreadlocks. "I'm Enrique Cormier. Who are you?" "Jasmine Cormier." She could tell that Enrique was put off by her outfit. Then again, anyone would be. She and Blake were quite a pair in their raver costumes. "Then we must be cousins...then I assume you live here too. Where could I find the computers? I'd like to register." "Oh, two floors up." "Thanks. Catch you later then." "Yeah..." This is so weird.
ROTF, Chee-Z. Don't know exactly why this chapter struck me so funny, but it did. My joints are wearing down, too. :covereyes:
So, youre the guy thats been going steady with my sister, a big guy with cornrows approached a fellow who was wearing a hoodie, a hat, a pair of sunglasses and was drawing on a cigarette. So whats it to you? the fellow dropped the cigarette and crushed it with the heel of his tennis shoe. The two guys stared at each other for a moment, then they burst out laughing. Yo, just playin with ya, Jamie. I know it, Enrique. How is Stella doing? Swell, the last time I heard. Ive been studyin, you know. Yeah, youve been studyin how to get into that frat down the street. Jamie? Jasmine, a senior now, approached them. Hey, greeted Jamie. Hey yourself. Theres a bedroom on the third floor with your name on it. Kevin and Celina just graduated. Good for them. Whoever the heck they were. So what you gonna major in, bro? Economics, probably. Ive been hoping to become, like, a business tycoon or something like that. Or make stuff. Cool. Im gonna be a General. You seem quite certain about that. I am darn certain, Enrique punched Jamie on the shoulder, then showed him around the rental property. Yeah heres the living room, and the dining room. No one really uses the kitchen anymore since we bought that buffet table thats outside. Uhyeahheres the best part right here, Enrique escorted Jamie outside. Holy crap, two hot tubs? Heck yeah, and a swimmin pool. Sweet! Oh yeah, and look over here. Its also got your name on it. Wait, lawn gnomes? No doofus, the bowlin alley. We paid extra for that baby. Holy crap! This place has everything! Yeah welcome home, dude.
So Franciscohow do you like the golden years? Its alright so far, honey. I still have some spring in my step. Good, good. Im still able to crack down on crime in my old age Brittney cackled. The house seems so empty without any kids here, though. I know it, dear. Im hoping Jasmine decides to come and stay with us when she graduates, but I know shes decided to live in a house in downtown. Is that it? Shes not going to be able to afford a house right away. The property is so expensive. Thats why I suggested that she stay with us until she settled herself down, but she says that boy shes dating is going to help her out with the house problemIm a bit worried, Frankie. Im worried too Francisco sighed. He rolled over in bed and drifted off to sleep. He heard Brittney starting to snore beside him.
Javier Cormier was having a hard time dealing with law enforcement. When Alonso was a teenager, he was up until the wee hours playing chess when a police officer knocked at his door. Sir, your son was vandalizing the high school with aJade Barrett? You need to be more responsible over him. Javier gave Alonso the best lecture that he could give at about four in the morning, but he had to admit that he was not the best parent in the world. Yet he also thought that Alonso knew better than to sneak out in the middle of the night. Then, another night, when the family was sleeping and little Santiago was just a toddler, a cat burglar snuck into the house and stole a Jackson Pollack and the flat panel television. Darn it, Javier, I thought you were going to install that security system! Hush, let me call the police, theyll do something about it. Needless to say, they did not get the television or the artwork back. Even with the same officer coming and attempting to arrest the woman that was now going to break into Alonsos room. So when Alonso headed off to college, all Javier could say was Son, promise me youre not going to be a police officer. Thats an odd request, but ok. Good boy.
Hello Yvonne. Ah, I see you waited until I came home from work. UhI guess Im going in this outfit, huh? I think its sexy, myself, but dont tell anyone else that. Har har. So whats going to happen to the house? Itll be put up for sale. You know, could you have waited to sell the beds? Those people that died keep griping that theyre gone. I didnt need seven beds, neither will the people moving in. Whatever. Okay ladies, lets welcome Yvonne. Heres your complimentary drink for your trip. Whats the suitcase for? Beats me. Come on, I have other people to take care of. Fine, fine. Just burry me under the tree when youre done. Will do. Hey, can I get a drink? Its hard reaping souls for eternity. And the underworlds really hot in the summer. Go right on ahead, dear. Dad? Did we have to buy a house with a graveyard? I think its quaint, Stella. Nacho, look! It has a bowling alley! Rosemarie and Ignacio had grown older, and were the ripe age of 54 when they decided to move into a larger house. Rosemarie had her hair done in a conservative bun and wore a blue housedress. It concealed the fact that she was a criminal mastermind. Ignacio was a mad scientist and still had his long hair and casual clothing. I told you this place had everything. You dont even have to redecorate! Nacho seemed quite excited, whereas Estrella waswell Ugh It has a ballroom, several studies, several bedrooms, the latest plumbing, the latest kitchen appliancestheres a music room upstairs, and a bubble bloweruhanything else Im forgetting? Yeah, dead crazy people buried in our side yard. Dad? This was a mental hospital. Not anymore! Its the Nacho Cormier Estates! Its a bigger place for when your brother decides to move back home, dear. Rosemarie put her hand on Estrellas shoulder. Lets put it this wayyou have a couple more years before you go off to college, marry that Jamie person you like so much, and move in with him. Do we have a deal? Deal. Great! Lets get these boxes in, ladies Nacho started unpacking the back of the pickup truck. When he tried to lift up one of the heavy boxes, he felt and heard his back crack. Ack! Nacho, maybe you need to have Bender come over to help us Hey, not a bad idea! Why dont we have a housewarming party? Uhlets get the things inside first, dear And I have pictures, but my brother is building on his first community business on my laptop as I'm typing this. Go figure.
A few pictures before we begin. 1. I found it interesting that robots can go into social failure too. 2. Yvonne in her younger years 3. Grimmy is helping himself to Yvonne's juice. 4-5. Not sure if I've posted pics of them yet, but Shenene and Javier as elders
A few more: 1. Rosemarie and Estrella "Stella" Cormier 2. Sunnyview Residential Center, remodeled 3. Ignacio and Rosemarie before the BSoD 4. Riza Salvadori and Jasmine Cormier. I died laughing when I saw that Jasmine grew up in that outfit, so I kept it. Keep in mind that Jade Salvadori, Alonso Cormier's girlfriend, looks like Riza.
So darling Yeah Mom? If you want to go to college early, I do believe you can. Really? Youre a very smart girl, Stella. I think you can do it. Oh Momyou think Dadll let me? I think so. We have been discussing it. You dont seem to happy in school and university may be better for you. Well, it does have That fellow you like so much. I know. You call him every day. Momthanks. Welcome, dear. Lets just hope he doesnt get offended by your Mom, I dont think hed break up with me because I gained a few pounds. Being an intern is killer, just sitting there all the time. I know, dear. Estrella moved to college on a Saturday. When she came, Jasmine had already graduated and had moved into that house downtown with her boyfriend Blake. They were not married and yet Jasmine was already carrying Blakes child, to the chagrin of her parents. Estrellas cousin Alonso was already a senior, along with Jade Barrett. Enrique and Jamie were starting their junior year. She felt so behind but she thought she could catch up in record time. She was a talented artist, so she enrolled in the college of art. Running to class always made her out of breath but she kept at it. However, school was keeping her busy and she was unable to find some time to be with Jamie, or anyone for that matter. Maybe later in the semester, she thought to herself, sighed, and resumed studying.
Estrella, though, kept getting dreams at night. Even though she was out of that house her parents bought, she was still haunted by it. One night she realized that there were ghosts wandering around the house and in the yard. Hey, wheres my bed? the ghosts would grumble. What? Hey, theyre sleeping in my bed! The nerve! Huh? You know, kid, I hate to say it, but I dont like you very much, a woman wearing Stellas mothers work outfit floated through the wall of Stellas bedroom. Of course, Stella screamed and didnt sleep that night, resulting in her collapsing as she got home from school that day. Why do you keep bothering me? I know your type. You want to grow up, get married, and start a family. I didnt really have that luxury. You know, growing old and not marrying my sweetheart and all. Thats a shame. Yeah, he was a cutie, that guy. What was his name? Corey. Hes still in college, the slacker. A guy also kept grumbling about not starting a family. He was a transparent green, and young, unlike the crazy ghosts or their former caretaker. Stupid cowplant the fellow mumbled.
I can't quite see Jasmine's outfit. Is it one that came with the game? LOL about Corey. Still in college while his girlfriend grows old. I'm so glad that doesn't happen in RL.
