Strangetown extras: Off to college we go!

[strangetomato]

You'll get to see Jill and Buck in university in the next chapter, but I just got them set up there tonight, and I wanted to share a couple of pics right away. I thought I had enough willpower to keep it to myself until the update, but that sort of evaporated when the cutest thing happened autonomously, so you get a sneak preview.

That's right. The fish came too. *grin*

Buck got himself a flattering new haircut (or did he cut it himself?), and he's wearing one of my other favourite things about Kitchen and Bath: the argyle sweater! I have so much love for that outfit, and it's perfect for Buck. Just perfect.

The apartment that I picked just happened to be the perfect shade of purple to match Buck's stuff too. He loves it.




And here's Jill. I think she grew up cute. She's completed her funky new look with a striped jumper-type dress (with more green, of course) and some cool boots.




Hey, I can see Johnny, Ripp and Ophelia's apartment through the window! I can even kind of see that llama crossing road sign on the wall. That's a pretty high level of detail.




And this is what I just had to share with you: autonomous serenading! *heart melts* Buck is just too sweet. He gives me cavities.

Buck is so cute!! *pinches his cheeks* And that nose! I swear it gets bigger for every story I see him in. :P You know he got that from Lyla, but on her it wasn't as bad, since females are always a bit "prettier" than their make equivalents.

Jill obviously takes heavily after her mother. The way EA did the genes is just mystifying as both Johnny and Jill inherited a lot from their mother, whereas the twins took heavily after their father, which makes more sense. Oh well, thems be genes for ya! :P

Awwwww, Buck serenading Jill!! How cute! How many bolts do they have, btw? Just curious. :)

Yeah, it kinda does, doesn't it? I figure it must be from his Mom too (I gave her a fairly decent sized nose, with this in mind), or maybe a grandparent.

Well, with the way, the game genetics work, Johnny would never exist as he is now, and Jill would have to be green, but I like the little differences there. It gives Jill an interesting situation, and Johnny seems to have recessive facial genes (since he looks like his uncle Vidcund), which the game doesn't do, but it's cool because it ties the Curious family together with the Smiths.

Buck and Jill have two bolts, and their turn ons aren't even completely lined up. I'll probably switch them later, if they're definitely sticking together. I usually do that once a couple is "locked in". :)
