Strangetown extras: Ripp is obsessed with his own mortality

[strangetomato]

Now, I know that I've been known to InSIM Ripp into a variety of ailments, and I've even killed him a couple of times to get the shots I needed for the story, but is that any reason for him to become fixated on death? I'm starting to worry about his mental health, just a little. Check out the fear that he rolled during a recent session at the Grunt house...

Hmmm. Does this happen often? I've never seen it before. I mean, it seems reasonable to fear your own death, and maybe a little obvious, but does Ripp have some reason to think that he might actually die? Is it because of the recent trend of deaths in the Grunt family? This doesn't seem very healthy to me.

The other wants/fears are typical. He's been fairly obsessed with becoming friends with both Frances and Nervous, based on his recent interactions with them, and he always rolls wants to flirt with people (that one is a cheerleader - a favourite booty call of his), and to buy various instruments. The only typical want that's missing is "woohoo in bed". Yeah, it's always there and it's always "in bed" (I think he just likes to pass out afterwards, since he's so awesomely lazy). Also, Ripp's not really a freshman. He's a senior. (InSIMing is to blame again.) Don't get the idea that they'll never, ever graduate from LFT. *snicker* I may be slow, but I'm not THAT slow.

Anyway, I thought that it was pretty amusing, so I thought I'd share.

I`ve heard that it`s not advised to move all the tombstones from the Specter household *at once*. Many messed up character files in there.

I once did it and not only the Grunt kids got memories of their mother`s death (and could be because of it, Lyla`s character file is horribly corrupted) but Ophelia got a memory of her aunt`s latest husband`s death!

Oh, really? Ooops. It's a bit late for that now. What can happen? I moved a couple separately, but then I just moved the rest all at once. And the fresh memories of the deaths were happening even when I moved the graves separately.

I have had a couple of memories pop up like that, but is that really harmful in any way, I wonder? I can't really see much harm in it. (And shouldn't Ophelia have had that memory anyway? I think she would have been there when it happened, according to the chronology of the other memories. The Grunts also SHOULD have a memory of their mother's death.)
