For Simgaroop... Helena the cheerleader

I've being meaning to ask you about this for a while, [livejournal.com profile] simgaroop. Is Helena a crazy party animal in your game? Is she really excitable? I ask because she never seems to stop cheering in my game. She'll do something and then she'll cheer immediately afterwards. Like, she'll walk up the stairs, stop, and then cheer. She's seriously high on life (and possible some other substances).

I took some pics. I thought you'd get a laugh out of it.










She's just happy to have entered the kitchen.




Helena: Wooooooooo!!! I totally ATE THAT!




Helena: A phone call for me? W00t!








Helena: I said W00000000000t!!!!




Helena: OMG it's my fridge! So excited!




Some dancing...






...leads to more cheering.






Helena: YESSSS!!!!





Helena: WOOOOOOOOO!!!! Go ME!

... and so on and so on.... It happens all the time.

I'm becoming a little concerned that she might be a cokehead. Maybe it's just coffee, but she'd have to be drinking a hell of a lot of it for it to have this effect. Or maybe she's just a really extreme gal. This is definitely shaping the way I'll be using her character in the story. Such a big personality needs to be utilized to the fullest.

I've never seen anything like it. It's quite cool. Is this happening because she's max active and playful? Was she like this in your game too?

Oh, and shout out to this awesome AL outfit conversion by javabean_dreams: Landlord Vests for the Un-Landlordy. It's one of my favourite Maxis outfits to date. It's not really Helena's usual sort of thing (it's more of a Frances thing), but I wanted to show it off anyway.

Helena is awesome! I was laughing and cheering right along with her as I read this.

I've never had this happen to a sim before and I've had the extreme personalites. Maybe it's a new feature added to AL? That would be cool if it was. Or maybe it's just Helena hitting the bubble too hard and too often. :P

She's a great sim. I'm so glad Simgaroop shared her. I've really enjoyed playing with her, and I'll have even more fun with her in the story.

I'm beginning to think it's just a glitch with the lot, though her guests don't cheer like that. Either way, it's becoming part of her character.
