Frances J. is The Man, it would seem.

[strangetomato]

Thanks to everyone who voted in my poll for chapter 28. The results have given me a clear plan for how to approach it, and the order should work out perfectly, now that I've thought about it (with maybe one exception, but that should be okay too). Our dear little Frances won by a landslide. I guess when you end up in simsecrets and such, you're a big friggin' deal.







"And in the darkened underpass
I thought Oh God, my chance has come at last
(But then a strange fear gripped me and I
Just couldn't ask)"




"Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care"




"Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one, da, da, da ...
Oh, I haven't got one"




"And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-tonne truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine"




"Oh, There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out..."


...

Hmmm... we seem to have caught him at a bad time. Or at a good time, since it's not every day he gets the house to himself for a heartfelt post-shower ballad. You don't exactly do that sort of thing with Tank around. ;)

Just a sidenote... I actually spent time getting him back to the neutral body shape (I could have used a hack, sure, but it was more fun to watch him gorge himself on take out), because I just don't see Frances having a six pack.

We'll pick back up here when it's time for the update. (Yes, at this exact spot.)

Now, if only Photobucket would stop being an idiot and let me see my photos again, I'd be all set. I'm so used to using it... and changing is hard.

:D

That is all.

I can see your banner, but that's it. In other news, SQUEEEEE. Frances is so adorable, and him singing awfully (I don't imagine he got the musical genes like Edie did, besides playing piano) is just more adorable! You KILL me, ST. :D

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Heheh. I'm just GIVING THE PEOPLE WANT THEY WANT!

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

I re-hosted the banner, that's why. It's now in my livejournal scrapbook. I'm going to that for all the permanent images.

I don't think he'd be awful, but he's probably not a great singer. He's competent enough, but he wouldn't likely sing for an audience if he could help it.

*tips hat*

The pleasure - the privilege is mine. ;)

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

HAHAHAHA! He's so fucking cute. I was watching that poll and laughing my ass off knowing that he would be the obvious winner! How many secrets does Frances have under his belt? Three? I think so. XD

So, it opens up with him in a towel huh? Interesting.

Funny how yours ended up fit and mine ended up fat. Either way, I still imagine if he was a real person he'd be this skinny little thing.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I had a feeling he'd clean up at the polls too. He has a cult following. (And yeah, I think it's three.)

Yeah, it opens up with him in a towel. Why do you ask? :P

He ended up fit because he kept swimming in his pool (and what did you expect if you made him a grilled cheese sim? *snicker*). We must have him pictured in much the same way, because I see him as a small guy too. Not really skinny or short, but just a little bigger than that.

[cindyanne1.livejournal.com]

Frances is so adorable. What I wouldn't give for Tank to walk in on him. :D Towel and all!

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

*whistles innocently*

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

It is three. There was the one about Simonym's obsession with him, the one about somebody wanting the Worthington Legacy to be about him, and the most recent one. I don't know why I know this! Maybe I should become the leader of the cult. :P

He was a PLEASURE sim in college, not grilled cheese! Lol, that's his secondary.

It's all Guy's fault, really. He's so overly nurturing and didn't want his poor Frankie to starve! So he just kept coming home with pizza every day while stupid me thought nothing of checking the empty refrigerator. Either that or he's a chubby chaser and decided to mold him into something more suited to his tastes. *snicker* I so gave him "fat" as a turn on after that.

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

Well now, Tank walks in on just about everybody doesn't he?

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

We should make sure there's a Frances secret every week. Though, now that I've said that, everyone will know I'm the one making them. :P

Oh, SORRY! *snort* GET IT RIGHT!

Awww, he started to find it attractive after Frances got fat. It must be true love.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Tank has a knack for showing up at just the wrong moment.

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

Okay I take it back, you're most definitely the Grand Poobah. And yes, you so totally should.

YEAH YOU SHOULD KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT MY SIMS SINCE I KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT YOURS!!! XD

I know... No matter how Frances looks he still loves him! *pukes* Actually, in a weird way it was one of the sweetest things I've ever seen a sim do for another sim autonomously.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

YESSSS... I win. :D It would be funny to annoy people with an ever-present Worthignton secret. It could be a game to find the hidden Frances every week. How long would it take people to bitch and complain about it?

Heheh. I got distracted by the shiny grilled cheese and forgot about the bubble blowing pleasure stuff.

That is really sweet. Sims can be sickeningly adorable. Like, how cute is "kiss lightly?"

[swhedonberry.livejournal.com]

Hey, I voted Tank, but Frances has a healthy bit of my love, too. ROCK ON, FRANKIE!!

He actually strikes me as someone who would really hate being called Frankie.

[amaryssobellus.livejournal.com]

:D He's adorable, though I'm pretty sure I voted for Jane I'll take Frances

[indigoleo.livejournal.com]

ROFL!!

Cost of computer; $695.00
Cost of internet connection; $24.95
Cost of Livejournal account, bare-bones basic; $0.00
The joy of seeing F.J. Worthington prance around in a towel? Priceless.

[franwi.livejournal.com]

He looks so happy, it's making me giggle - and I've been really down, so that's some magic!

[madame-ugly.livejournal.com]

Sweet, the rehosting thing worked.

Now I feel smart. *sings* I am so smart. S-M-R-T (just smile and nod, for me these moments are so very few and far between)

pBucket is still being a turd? *shakes fist* I agree, change is a pain in the ass (and highly over rated).

OH, and "WORK IT BOYEEEEE!!!" *waves single simoleons* "WOOT! WORK IT!!!" *clears throat and looks around* Uhm, yeah. . .I should just. . .*slinks away*

[cindyanne1.livejournal.com]

Doesn't Ripp call him Frankie? Or is that just Frank? LOL Ripp. :D

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you should feel SMRT... it was a good idea. It worked for the entries, and I don't have any bandwidth to deal with on the livejournal scrapbook (not that I know of, anyway).

I have no idea why it's not showing yet. Some people can see it too, apparently. *shrugs* I'll wait a couple more days, and then I'll worry.

*snicker* Shhh... you'll frighten him away. Though I'm sure he'll take your money. Greedy little fortune sims...

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm not sure if he'd be cool with that. He strikes me that way too... the sort of person who doesn't like nicknames but gets them constantly anyway.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

It was just Frank. :P Yeah, leave it to Ripp.

I wonder what he'd call him now if he ran into him? I've been wondering about how they'd react to a run-in, and I'll have to work it in when I do chapter 28.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

The people have spoken, and so we must jump on the Frances bandwagon. It doesn't hurt that he's cute.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Heheh. Glad you liked it.

Those Bon Voyage towels are so many different kinds of awesome.
