Round 1: Uni - Landgraab House


In this dorm is one Prosperity Falls citizen, and two townies.


Townie Opal Raymond /  Starting third year


Malcom Landgraab V /   son of Aazie (Robbins) and Malcom Landgraab IV. Starting third year


Townie Ginger Newsome /  in the middle of first year

Upon opening the lot, the two girls were sitting at the computers in their room playing games.  Nope.  Unless you are working on the gaming hobby plaque.  A quick glance in their skill panel showed that was not the case.  ASimWen pulled them away from that addictive behavior.  hahaha


Ah.  So here is the werewolf that everyone in the Small Dorm (Infinity Nevermore, Rachel Strickland and Java Joe Capehart) kept wishing would be cured of Lacanthropy.  Nery Taylor.  ASimWen doesn't believe she has ever seen a werewolf  do slap dancing.


Opal and Malcom are a three bolt couple, and to ASim's delight, they are engaged.  They got busy right away going after those hobby plaques for prosperity points.  It was disappointing to find that the juicer didn't work properly when "serving" juice.  The tray of drinks would disappear when being served.  When a single drink was made and consumed, no skill points were awarded.  That would make it next to impossible to accomplish skilling and hobby plaque earning on this lot. Considering what to do about this.  Maybe bull dozing the lot and setting the dorm down again?


It wasn't long before Opal had the hobby plaque in Arts and Crafts.  Go you, Opal!  Ginger got busy on the painting easel to build up some skill points to work toward the same plaque.


 And there it is!


Malcom got busy on the robot table and in no time built up skill to make the Sentry Bot.  Uh-huh.  There was something faulty with the Bot because it also went after Nery the Werewolf and regular folk in the dorm....


Hah.  Well, a quick reboot of the machine by Malcom seemed to fix this odd behavior.


Hobby plaque in tinkering for Malcom.  Yay.


Gold badge in flower making for Opal.  Snapdragons, here we come!


Since pepper punch and strawberry lemonade could not be made in the juicer to keep up plat mood and energy, the kids had to rely on doing it the old fashioned way.  Opal and Malcom dated to get plat moods so they could hit the energizer, but Ginger had no one.  A look in her address book showed she had a high relationship goth boy Conrad Dallas, who had just graduated out of the Greek House.  He had since gone back to towniedom back in Prosperity Falls.  Ginger called him up for a date to hit plat status.  There you go.


What??  Nery the werewolf boy was jealous of Ginger and Conrad, and let Ginger know about it....apparently there was something going there that was unknown to ASim!

At this point what to do about the buggy juicer was answered for ASim.  Upon trying to open the lot the next RL day, the game would crash to desktop.  The kids were moved out, and the lot bulldozed.  The dorm was set again, but ASim took a look at the neighborhood and saw a house that was not occupied.  Seemed to have a full garden and a wishing well.  Hard telling who lived there last.  Malcom, Opal and Ginger moved.

 


Everyone was happy to move out of the dorm.  Now the work would begin!


Opal and Ginger got to work on their gardening badge / nature plaques...


And Malcom busied himself making a Sentry Bot.  The house was extremely tiny, and only had a double bed in it.  There was no place to put the work benches but outside which lead Malcom to test the juicer inside.  All three of them had plenty of produce in their backpacks.


Alright!  Malcom received a skill point for drinking eggplant juice.


Since Ginger had maxed out Arts and Crafts and gotten the Hobby Plaque a turn at the flower bench seemed appropriate.


Woot woot!!  Malcom and Opal passed to their last year!


It was about this time Opal finally received her gold in gardening.

Opal:  "Its about time!"


Ginger: Dang. I could be studying instead of arranging flowers....

Malcom:  Toy making isn't so bad....but I would rather be spending time with Opal.


Guy:  Hey I see potential in you.  Lemme give you this award!

Malcom:  Thank you sir!


Ginger:  It isn't that I don't like flowers.  I do.  I have just been at this for so loooonggg...oooh gold badge.  Shiny!

 

Ginger:  Yay.  Starting third year.  At least, I will be a smart and educated Townie!


Malcom:  I am done with toys.  For sure.  Well maybe me and dad can get into toy manufacturing now.  I know all about it from the ground up.


Malcom:  Come 'ere babe.  We are going to have a wonderful and full life.


Opal and Malcom graduate.  Yay.


Buh-bye Malcom.  See you later tater.  At least you aged up into a decent outfit.


And you Opal....grew up into a stylish gown befitting of the richest family in Bluewater.  Good bye.  Until we meet again.

By this time ASimWen realized there was a Sim waiting in the SimBin to be placed in University.


Shalanta Bostic.  She is from the Bostic Homestead, daughter of  Zeon and Trudy Bostic.



Family - Marry off Six

ASimWen:  Hi Shalanta!  Welcome to Sim State!

Shalanta:  Hi ASim.  Glad to be here.

ASimWen:  My your brows bear the Robbins blood line in your family.

Shalanta:  Yes.  Yes they do.

ASim:  Very becoming.


Nery:  Hello.  I am the campus werewolf.  My name is Nery Taylor.

Shalanta:  Hi Nery!  We have a werewolf headmaster back in Prosperity Falls.

Nery:  Zat so?  Well.  Isn't that interesting.


Shalanta:  Hear that everyone!  I have made it into the Greek House!

ASimWen:  Being that there is only one person in the Greek House, (placeholder) It was very easy for Shal to just call the guy up on the phone and make friends.  As soon as he came over to test her into the Greek House, he simply left again as he and Shalanta were friends.  It happened so fast I didn't get a picture of it.


Shalanta:  Watering the flowers....my but these looked dry.  Want them to look good for my new friends.




ASimWen:  Shalanta came from Prosperity Falls with little to no friends.  She is scheduled to marry Yomi McClelland back in the hood who at this time is still a teen-ager.  If he doesn't show any signs of wanting to go to University, he will age up and move right in with her at Mom and Dad's.  They will carry on the Bostic name.  



Shalanta:  Ginger, this was a good idea to go shopping.  I could really use the outing.

Ginger:  I know right....I haven't been shopping since I started Uni.


Shalanta pays for several outfitts while Ginger browses.  Who should show up but Ginger's old flame, Conrad Dallas.


Shalanta:   I think I will wear this one home.  Think it looks pretty good on me.



Conrad:  Hi Ginger.  Long time no see.

Ginger:  Errrr...hi Conrad...  ?  Ginger really has no interest in him now.

In the background we see Sherri (Strickland) Trimble and Malvina (Robbins) McClelland shopping.

All in all the trip to Amelia's Closet was fun.  Ginger and Conrad talked and danced together while Shalanta cooked hamburgers for everyone as she was hungry.  Then they headed back home.

More Friends For Shalanta.


All the friend making through the wishing well apparently netted Shalanta a couple of SS people.  She was already friends with SS gal Ginger.  Woo that outfit DOES look good on her....

Shalanta:  Girl?? Why the heck are you acting like a chicken...


A day or two after her trip to the SS secret location, Shalanta invited her mom Trudy and her dad Zeon to talk for them a bit.  She was having a case of the Freshman lonelies.


Shalanta gives her dad a big hug
Shortly after Trudy and Zeon arrived, Shalanta went to bed leaving Trudy and Zeon to visit with Ginger.


Woot!  Hobby plaque - Arts and Crafts.  Shal got right on the computer upon waking.  What to do?  No!  No games!  Work toward that hobby plaque.  haha


In the mean time Ginger was invited out to go bowling with a bunch of Townies.  Good thing, run in that clique.


When she came home she had a chat with her neighbor, Buffy Landgrabb. They are dressed exactly alike.  heh


Then onward toward earning that gold badge in gardening.  Nothing like trying to keep plants alive in the snow.


And finally graduation day came.  Goodbye Ginger.  Ginger moved back home with her siblings.  Maybe she will marry somebody from the neighborhood and become a bonafide citizen of Prosperity Falls!


Shalanta - All By Herself 



This house is very tiny....so Shal and the others kept the skilling workbenches outside.  They were forever being hit by lightening.  This was very upsetting to Shalanta.


However she managed to keep the whole place from burning down.

Shalanta:  Yep.  I would just call the fire department.  But all that fire still worried me.


So I did a study at home course on Fire Safety.  I felt better.  Gave me great piece of mind.


I learned all I could about the outdoors and how to garden.  I am confident I can keep everything neat and tidy now!


I am half way through university now...but I still have lots more to learn!


I get help from friends to help me study.


ASimWen:  Oh who is this? Why it is Zen Robbins, son of Xuan Robbins and Cara Strickland.  Why is he running?  Ah. The Sentry Bot came after him.  He must have had some debauchery in mind.



Shalanta:  Woot woot...I just learned some more.


Junior year went fast.  Where did the time go?  (On speed 3 and 4 - ASimWen)


And one more hobby plaque..think this one was for tinkering.  Shalanta also got a gold badge on the robot table.  Never got to the toy making bench.  The garden was just beginning to grow, and she had to tend it by herself, that is where most of her time went.


ASimWen:  Congratulations, Shalanta!  What are you gonna do now?

Shalanta:  I am gonna move home to mom and dad's and be the heir.  Go me.

ASimWen:  Well you have lots of skills and knowledge under your belt.  What is your goal in life?

Shalanta:  To have six kids!

*ASimWen faints*

****

Well Simmers that is finally it for this lot!  Next:

PineNut Plaza!

Woo hoo!

~ASimWen
