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.

So many times I have considered making Buck gay, but I can never do it because I am SUCH a Buck/Jill shipper.

And WOW. That nose. I'm so interested in seeing what kind of nose any kids of theirs would end up with, between Buck's huge schnoz and Jill's tiny alien sniffer. (Speaking of which, I really like that haircut on her. I feel like it makes her nose fit more with the rest of her face, or something.)

I can see how people interpret Buck as gay, with the Maxis bio, and his ultra neatness (it's a stereotype, but still). I don't think that dictates that he'll be gay, just a neat guy who's into art and design. Nothing wrong with that. He'd could be gay or straight. It doesn't really matter.

So you always pair up Jill and Buck? That's too cute.

Well, I guess the kids will get one nose or the other, since that seems to be how it works. I wish they'd allow it to do something halfway too. It would be interesting.

Yeah, that hair seems to balance her features pretty well. I'm liking it on her.
