Glee

It worked. I managed to shoot the scenes I wanted at the Mercy Hospital. *jumps up and down* Don't you love when something actually works out for you? The lot still went crashy-crashy, but I managed to do what I had to do there. There's an update looming, I can feel it.







Did you guess who you'd see at the hospital?

Yes, it's the two sims from Strangetown who work there. ;) But what exactly takes place during this exchange?

Stay tuned...

*cues ominous music*

Ooooooooh, you're horrible!

I'm going to take a guess:

Circe Beaker and Don Lothario. Something with the clones. Then Nervous' ~senses tingle~ and he's like "GOTTA HELP MY CLONES!" and he saves the day. Yes? No? :P

LOL!

I love your theory. Nervous' special powers aren't very useful unless someone is going to DIE, though... so he'll be pretty useless unless someone is actually at risk of death. Even then, he might not be able to change this. He sees CERTAIN DEATH.

But yes, Don Lothario might have something to do with it. WATCH OUT FOR THAT GUY! :O

WERE DON AND CIRCE DOING IT IN THAT ROOM?

And by that I mean Don attempting to seduce Circe and her punching him in the nuts? And then leaving with a smile on her face?

Because, uh, that's my guess.

Heheh. I'm throwing people off, I see. The other sim isn't Don, because he's not from Strangetown, but that sim IS in the pic. ;)

I could see Circe enjoying that very much, though. If Don does manage to seduce her, he surely doesn't know what he's in for. Circe would eat him alive (but he'd probably LOVE it).

Izzat Jenny then?

Oh gosh, Circe and Jenny.

WERE THEY DOING IT IN THAT ROOM?!

Um wth comment why you down here?

[identity profile] dothesmustle.livejournal.com 2008-11-04 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I wish his super powers worked so he could ~save lives~ Okay so, then I hope that he doesn't see his clones, because I don't want to see them die. I HAVE ONLY KNOWN THEM FOR A FEW UPDATES AND I AM ALREADY ATTACHED. Damn you! :P

Never trust a man who looks like a penis, I would know. :P He was discussing something nefarious with Circe and Jenny overheard and she's all "Ooooooooh, I'm TELL-ing." So Circe kills her and makes Don take the blame. :(

Nervous has useless powers.

Not really. He's might be able to stop some death from happening, if he knew the cause of that death, and had the power to prevent it. But mostly... he doesn't. It depends on the situation, though.

Don't trust Circe either. She's not above killing to reach her goals (mostly monetary in nature).

Well, since PT is in his Viagra years, can you blame Jenny? :P

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
No.

I'd do Circe too.

D:

[identity profile] dothesmustle.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
She shouldn't have sex. She's OLD!!!!!!!!111!!!! :P

If I was living in Strangetown, I'd be all about the Circe. ;)

And Ripp. Ripp too.

(And probably a bunch of others... because I'm slutty like that.)

*snort* Oh, please... you KNOW that PT and Jenny are wild animals in the sack, even as seniors.

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
I cannot decide rather I'd be all up in Johnny's shit or just want to like... hug him forever.

But yeah, I think he's a hottie too.

The Curious brothers, however, have never really tempted me. Except Lazlo's sort of cute.

But yeah, I'd probably be all about Johnny.
ext_122042: (Default)

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
I agree. Lazlo is on my list, but the other brothers don't do a thing for me, and I even have a pronounced teacher/professor fetish.

I see what you're saying about Johnny. You'd want to kiss and cuddle him more than anything. I can totally see that.

I'd actually toss Ajay Loner OUT of my bed. No joke. :P

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
The other guys are too uptight or something. Also, they seem just a bit too old for me. Lazlo seems like the most fun. We'd go on adventures and stuff.

Adventures in the sack that is.

Yes, I mostly just want to cuddle Johnny and then push him towards Phi and Ripp.

Haha, I don't have any attraction to AJ even outside of your story. He just seemed so boring. And in your story, he's kind of a douche. So yeah, I'd probably get rid of him too. But I love your absolute hatred for him. XD

[identity profile] cindyanne1.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Dun dun duuuuuuuunnnn! Yay for updates!

I'm not even going to guess at what's going to happen... I'll just enjoy the delicious anticipation.

Sort of OT... I love that Mercy Hospital lot. It's so detailed and very well done. I wish I had something to write about that needed it though, lol.

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
It's funny because Lazlo and Pascal look a lot alike, but Lazlo is just better. WAY BETTER. :D

I don't think Ajay is a douche in the story, as such but he's a bit superficial. His makeover was actually an attempt for me to like him (I like that curly mess I gave him for hair). I wouldn't say I really HATE hate him, but he's so bland. He's truly a bin-head, if there ever was one. I don't see him as an essential character in Strangetown at all.

[identity profile] petite-sim.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
OMG is Circe going to kill Jenny? I don't trust her... Also, Don should stay away from Circe. She's a ballbreaker.
I would totally screw Ripp. And cuddle Johnny forever. I have a friend like Johnny...me and my other friend were snuggling up to him in the locker hallway today because it was freezing, and he was kind of feeling crowded, and then he said "you guys need to get boyfriends". >:(
And Jenny seriously shouldn't have sex...that's just ew.

[identity profile] cindyanne1.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
I can truthfully say I wouldn't toss any Strangetown male out of my bed. *evil grin* Nope, not even Loki. He's damn cuddly once you get him on his own.

Of course, this is if I was... you know... like, a sim.

And yes, my selfsim is slutty. I'll admit it freely. *giggle*

[identity profile] simgarooop.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:42 am (UTC)(link)

*Squints* Is that nurse over there Jenny? RUN JENNY! RUN! Or that witch is going to get you! (though I don't think that Circe would harm Jenny, 'cause she needs Vidcund's trust. Then again, it's not like Vidcund would have to know who was the mastermind behind this hypothetical crime :P).

I'm glad the hospital worked out in the end. Yup, you should keep it for exterior shots (it's awesome for that!), and stick with simple lots for interior ones. Your computer (and your patience) will thank you for that :D.

[identity profile] dothesmustle.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
I wonder if they'd turn to becoming swingers to spice up their sex life, haha. TERRIBLE THOUGHTS. (It would so be with .... one of those old downtownies. :P)

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
I agree with this comment. I just have this idea that even as elders Jenny and PT would be going at it like rabbits. I imagine it's loud and embarrassing and Johnny used to have to sleep with ear plugs and basically hated sleeping above them.
ext_122042: (Default)

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Loki? Really... HIM?! :P

That's just SICK!

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
Agreed. Lazlo is the best Curious.

I think maybe I don't like him because he's so inconsequential? He just seems totally at the edge of everything and he's not okay with Erin's change and I dunno. He's just... bleh. But Erin totally shines on her own. I love her!

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
I'm picky and most of the Strangetown dudes just don't tickle my fancy. I'd probably kick quite a few out.

Haha, my self-sim tends to be a one-man kind of gal. I feel bad interfering in other's lives! I don't even know if I've ever gotten her together with anyone who wasn't a CAS sim or a townie/downtownie/npc! XD
ext_122042: (Default)

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
That's good, because you'll never guess it anyway! :P (As if I'm not totally obvious... *snicker*)

It is very cool, even if I probably wouldn't ever need to use most of it. It's so cc-heavy, I wouldn't want to keep it that way in the game. It bloats my downloads folder. When I add things like that for a scene, it's always temporary.

Didn't you do a really reaslistic birth scene in something? You could use a hospital for that. :)
ext_122042: (Default)

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
No comment. ;)

Oh, but Don would LOVE to have his balls broken by Circe. Or roughed up, at the very least...

YOU have a friend like Johnny? :P I've based a lot of him on my closest friend. The other half of that same friend went into Beau. Some of the conversations between Jill and Johnny end up a lot like conversations between me and that friend.

Come on now... some of the best lovin' is in the golden years. ;)

Circe would easily carry off a crime like that without Vidcund being the wiser, but what is her ultimate goal? You know she's working towards something, but what is it?

Yeah, I think that's definitely the way to go in the future. This was the first downloaded lot that caused me prolems like that, and some of them have been pretty big. *shurgs* I have no idea why this one was so tough on my game.

[identity profile] smjoshsims.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
I KNEW it was Jenny, but others beat me to it. I wonder what Jenny would say to her. And If Don AND Circe are in that hospital, you know something is going down...

[identity profile] petite-sim.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
My friend is pretty much like a less smart version of Johnny. I'm sure Don would love to have his balls roughed up by Circe, but knowing her, it would probably be a complete castration. I think he values them a little too much to let that happen.

[identity profile] muslemura.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 06:57 am (UTC)(link)
*gasps* Oh dear, nothing good will come of this, will it?

Glad you were able to finish your scenes :)

[identity profile] catladymeow.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 09:38 am (UTC)(link)
What an interresting and intriguing picture. Can't wait to see the next update.
Glad it worked for you.

[identity profile] cindyanne1.livejournal.com 2008-11-05 01:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I do birth scenes, like this one...



but I create a temporary set (usally on the lot I'm playing, with three walls and just the bare necessities for the picture.) I zoom in so close most of the time anyway, that a lot of the background would be lost. :P

I'd like to do some kind of hospital soap opera thing with all the people who work there, etc. and show the hospital that way. But OMG I have enough going on right now, lolol!

I find it interesting to see which parts of sim life people choose to make more realistic, and it makes sense that you'd be more tuned in to this part of it. I'm perfectly happy with the sim realistic insta-birth, but I make other things more realistic.

That's a nice photo, and it definitely gives the right impression there. Making a temporary set is the way to go most of the time. I did that when I made a hospital scene a while back too. It was a whole room, so I could show enough to give a sense of the whole scene, but it didn't do any more than I had to.

Yes, I've noticed that you crop really closely in almost all of your sim photos. Why is that? Is it to avoid decorating? :P

That sounds like a good idea for your style of writing. You should do it. I like the idea of episodic things like that, since the pacing of legacy stories is usually too fast for my taste. I'm struggling a little with the idea of doing one whole generation in a single chapter for the round robin legacy. It takes a very different approach.

Inconsequential is about right for me too. Ajay has no connection to anyone in Strangetown, unless you add it yourself. He's meant to be a loner, off to himself, focusing on his career. I suppose it's possible to invent some interesting reason for him to be hiding away in Strangetown, but I prefer to use him as a peripheral character.
