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.

Doing it in CAS doesn't bum me out as much as the surgery reward item would. That thing has always made me sort of sad. I can just imagine the Pleasant twins feeling pressure about their big noses and getting them reduced, or something like that. (Hmmm, that might be an interesting story idea...)

I don't like that reward either... It goes wroing too often and then you've lost your wonderful sim who just needed a minor nose/eye/chin - job to look absolutly amazing..

It's funny you mentioned that. I only ever tried that reward once, and it went wrong. The messed-up face is so scary. (Also another potential story idea there.)

You and your potential story ideas ;)

I used it a few times, before i figured out that it didn't change the genetics of my sims..

Well, it makes sense, doesn't it? Plastic surgery really doesn't change your genes.

I know. But I didn't know that the first few ties that I used it.. things are different in sims.. or so I thought till I let my sims breed... -shudders- I got Sis 2 UNI when it came out. I was like... uhm... 15/16.. something like that and I knew nothing about online communities..
