Extras: Funny happenings in Strangetown
I was playing in Strangetown recently, trying to do some housekeeping after my downloads folder editing, in preparation for the upcoming chapter. I'm really looking forward to getting back there after what seems like forever, with my extremely slow updating and the side story to Veronaville (which I'm glad I did, but I'm looking forward to getting back to S'town).
There was one serious victim of the download purge...
Oh dear. Has Pascal decided to join the military? What about their decidedly anti-alien bent?
Pascal got his hair back promptly, so no harm, no foul.
Typical.
Chloe likes girls and Ripp likes Chloe. Or is that Ripp likes Chloe liking girls? I'm sure it doesn't hurt.
I was playing with Chloe's restaurant and bar, Oasis, and I actually got it up to level six, which is amazing for me. Restaurants are difficult to play! I did have one snag where my hired chef would not be assigned to the stove. It didn't matter that much because Chloe is a celebrity chef and all, but it's still annoying. I wonder what's causing it. I've been paring down my hacks, too, so it seems unlikely that it's a conflict. Then again, I don't play fully-staffed restaurants too often.
Oasis is a laugh to play. I have Bella Goth and Genesis Lam as bartenders! XD
Speaking of hacks, I took out the one that stops the BV interactions entirely, because I was playing a vacation and my sims couldn't even learn the gestures because nobody would do them! The result is what you see before you. Ripp wasn't on the lot for five minutes before he started up a lusty sea chanty and had everyone joining in! Then again, and again, and again. He had a bit of a one-track mind, and not about what it's usually focused on.
I have the feeling this is going to spread around Strangetown and the subhoods like wildfire. I like the BV actions, but maybe I ought to find a hack that just reduces them a little. They're way too appealing to sims by default. It's all they do!
Sugar Tits made a point of telling me that she still thinks Pascal is hot, even with the tragic haircut (with detached sideburns!).
If I were Pascal, I wouldn't let it swell my ego too, too much. It's not all that difficult to turn Sugar Tits's crank, as it were...
See? She's liking Johnny's moves, too.
Also, Tai Chi is really big right now. Sadly, I noticed that sims don't seem to gain any body skill when they do that, but they gain fitness enthusiasm. That doesn't make much sense.
Tits also thinks Circe is one hot momma.
And PT's still got it. XD
I don't think there's anyone that Tits doesn't find attractive, frankly. She's one out of control romance sim.
I hope everyone is having a good weekend!

Is it one of the MATY ones? Maybe that's why I didn't see any of the interactions when I sent a sim on vacation. I have the Director's Cut and haven't gotten around to reading up on the ones for BV.
Good old Ripp, yes I can see why he would approve of Chloe's taste! :D
Congrats on your level 6 restaurant! I can't even get a yard sale to level 1 (not that I've really applied myself to it!)
Sugar Tits is a hoot. I've forgotten what her origins are, I should go back and read up...

I do believe it was a MATY hack. I always pull a couple of hacks from the Director's Cut right away, like the romance mod and the traditional marriage hack, and also the no humble hack, becuase it not only prevents him from coming, but it completely erases him from your game. -_- It'd be such a shame. He's too amusing to lose.
Heheh. I'm sure he let Chloe know that he's always around if she needs a third. :P
Thanks. Restaurants are fun to play, once you get the hang of them. You should give it a try!
Maybe you missed the chapter where Sugar Tits made her debut? I won't spoil it for you, because it'll probably be good for a laugh. XD Let's just say that there's a very good reason for her overactive libido!

Now I'm thinking of military research with nanobots that seek out alien DNA and destroy it, like a cancer. Or an Incredible Journey kind of thing with a tiny ship that can be injected into the veins of the abducted, piloted by shrunken sims who go to the site in the body where the infestation has taken root... imagine simming that, the CC one would need would be incredible. Or one could Photoshop the blood cells and internal organs in. Then the logical part of my mind kicks in and says, "Why not just cut it out surgically?" :-P Curse you, logic!
Yes, I must have missed that chapter! I will go look for it. :D

That's a good question where all abductions are concerned, actually. I guess it is technically possible for sims to do that, to avoid having an alien baby (and some have, in the story), but I guess that's why thealiens target the sims they do. They look for people who are more likely to keep them.
It's this one. That'll say you the search.
