Welcome back to
Imprismed and the
Geebiv family. We’re
now following
generation three, the red
generation.
We’ve finally got a bit of
color in the family, and
the presentation.
Our update begins with
Obsidian and Demi’s
elder transition.
A party was held and all
their closest friends were
there.
Demi aged gracefully
and made her way to the
chess table to build
more logic. She still
hasn’t reached the top of
her career as City
Planner, which is her
LTW. She’s close
though.
Obsidian didn’t fare too
badly either.
Scarlett spent the next
few days building up a
few more skills for those
last scholarships.
One last night at the
telescope, near her
grandfather’s grave, gave
her what she needed for
a respectable list. She
didn’t earn quite as
many as her father, but
she had enough.
She made the call and
said goodbye to her
family.
Then she was on her
way.
I turned on the special
event camera because I
wanted to see who
dropped her off at
college. It was Demi. I
love that animation.
The outfit she grew up
into was a problem, so
she took a quick trip to
campus to find
something more
suitable.
This dress seems to suit
her better. Her LTW is
to be a Rock God, which
I’ll try to fulfill, but I see
her more as a sultry Jazz
singer.
She kind of reminds me
of Molly Ringwald. I
still think she’s pretty in
an unusual way.
Back at the dorm, she
customized her room
and got to work on her
first term paper.
She also got acquainted
with her dorm mates,
none of whom she had
any attraction to.
So, it was another trip to
community lots to see if
there was someone she
might like.
The good witch’s arrival
lit up the place. Another
animation I love for the
picture it creates. It’s so
pretty.
I had Scarlett greet the
witch and chat for a bit
to get her as a contact.
I’m not sure she’ll do
anything with it, but it’s
nice to have.
Scarlett played some
pool and went to class
while she was on
campus.
She met several people
there as well, but still no
one she had any bolts
with. Not even one bolt.
It was all either negative
or nothing. More
contacts for her friend
list though.
Having no luck on
campus, I sent her
downtown to see what
might happen.
At Lucky’s, she met up
with Gilbert Jacquet,
who happened to be a
family friend of her
parents. Actually, I
think he’s been around
since Roy.
She greeted him like the
old friend he is.
And then some. She
likes him, she really likes
him.
Gilbert is the first two
bolter she’s had.
I’m a little unsure
because he’s a playable,
even though I’ve never
played him.
He’s also been firmly
entrenched in my head
as one half of Cassbert
of the Vetinari
Dualegacy where he is
madly in love with a
troubled half-alien.
But, look at her face. If
that doesn’t say, “Please?
I want this one. Can I
have him, please?” I
don’t know what does.
*Sigh* We’ll roll with it
and see what happens.
It is early in her college
career. She might find
someone else.
Apparently Gilbert is
quite enamored of her as
well. This might be a
match.
Scarlett finished out her
semester and the rest of
her freshman year in the
dorm in a pretty
uneventful manner.
Term papers, class and
parties were the order of
most days. At the end of
the year, she moved to
Kaleidoscope House.
Back at the main house,
Demi finally topped her
career and became
permaplat.
Carmine continued to
attend school, build
skills and bring friends
home. One of whom
was Joe Grundstrom.
Joe has a bad reputation
in another ‘verse (A
Victorian Legacy), but
here he’s been pretty
harmless.
Mini recipe for disaster:
1. While Carmine is gaining
logic skill on the telescope in
the yard, notice that Roy’s
grave has gone missing.
2. Cross fingers and hope that a
stray has destroyed it, even
though you’ve never heard of
that happening. It could be
a possibility.
3. Check the interwebz to find
out that it could mean
borked character files.
4. Get bone phone and try to
resurrect Roy only to find he
isn’t available as an option,
confirming that his
character file is likely
borked.
5. Cross fingers and hope that
the neighborhood doesn’t
implode in the near future.
After the brief panic over
Roy’s grave, the rotation
played out and Carmine
left for college.
I have a back-up of the
neighborhood, but it’s
rather old. I don’t know
if creating another back-
up will be worth it. If
the character file is
borked, it will be borked
in a backed-up version
as well. I’m just hoping I
finish before an all out
melt-down so I won’t
have to rebuild.
At Kaleidoscope House,
Scarlett made her first
booty call to Gilbert and
he rushed right over.
I went to his lot and
played him for a day so I
could give him a bit of a
makeover and also
because I’ve heard that if
you don’t, he’ll always be
working when sims try
to call him.
Scarlett’s enthusiastic
greeting was enough for
both of them to fall in
love with each other.
The woohoo was just the
proverbial icing on the
cake.
Scarlett’s addition to
Kaleidoscope House was a
game room off the back.
The rules for decorating
the sorority house are a
little different from the
main house. Each
generation attending
university can add or
remodel a room in their
color. They also have to
change at least four panels
of the exterior to their
color. One room must
remain in the color of
previous generations so at
the end, there will be one
black room, one red room,
one orange room, one
yellow room, etc.
You might recognize the
College Ho’s. They are
both members of
Kaleidoscope House.
My original intention
was to be able to get the
next heir, Scarlett, in the
sorority easily. It
worked, but had rather
nasty consequences, as
evidenced in Part Two.
However, I have plans
for these ladies.
Muwhahahaha.
Meet Aiden Johnson.
He is also a member of
the house. He is also a
factor in these nefarious
plans.
I actually really like this
sim and have used him
in his many incarnations
in various
neighborhoods. My
plans are a
bit…unorthodox, but I
think he’ll be okay.
Back at the dorm,
Carmine was making his
own friends, one of
whom is this dormie,
whose name I can’t
recall. They have one
bolt and she’s his ACR
one.
Even still, they have a
pretty open relationship.
One moment she’s
giving Carmine a kiss…
The next, their fellow
dormie. No jealousy
reactions either.
Person, person, plus,
plus flying every where.
Flirts, kisses, hugs, you
name it.
Even crush status.
Back at the sorority
house, you see Julie and
Aiden have become
quite close. She’s been
in love with him for
awhile now.
So has Melissa. She’s
been in love with him
since the days Obsidian
was at the dorm. Makes
the mess of what she
pulled at his house even
more vexing.
Mutual love and couch
woohoo with Julie set
them both in love and
made Julie his ACR one.
Which led to some
humor when Melissa
lured him to bed in an
ACR induced stupor. He
was fine when she
wanted to relax and talk,
but the minute she tried
to take things further he
rejected her.
Shortly after however,
their relationship was
high enough for red
hearts. Julie was not
pleased when she found
out.
Julie and Melissa are
both family sims with
similar TO/O. They
have boltage for all the
same sims.
Aiden is a Knowledge
sim. He has boltage for
almost all the female
sims, except for Scarlett.
Not to be daunted by the
slap-fest, he continued
to build his relationship
back up with Melissa.
As I said, I really like
Aiden in general in all
the ‘verses I’ve played
him in and all the ‘verses
I’ve seen him in.
He’s a great member of
Kaleidoscope House. At
lease he knows to wear a
toga to the toga parties.
He also mans the cow
gun on a regular basis.
His aim is unwavering
and his delight in
dealing with the cows
highly amusing.
Through all the drama
going on around her,
Scarlett stuck to her
studies and continued to
throw parties.
A love tub was also
acquired and Gilbert was
invited over repeatedly
to test out its restorative
powers.
Much to the pervy
Llama mascot’s delight.
Cheering is a bit much,
don’t you think?
A second genie lamp was
delivered to the family at
the sorority house.
Scarlett rolled a want to
rub the lamp, so I let her.
The house is loaded with
funds though, so a wish
for money would have
been extraneous.
Wishing for beauty
wasn’t necessary since
she and Gilbert were
pretty cemented at this
point, and a wish for life
long happiness would
make it so achieving her
LTW was unnecessary.
Scarlett didn’t’ feel any
wishes were necessary
and neither did I. The
lamp was given to Aiden
to aid in my future
plans.
The other significant
occurrence was that
Scarlett met Charlie
Komei. The second sim
she has two bolts with.
\o/ They became friends
quite quickly and I held
out hope that he would
replace Gilbert in her
affections.
For the record, I’m trying
to find spouses from
different population pools
in the game. Uma was a
bartender downtown,
Demi grew up with
Obsidian, etc. Both
Gilbert and Komei come
from different pools so
either is really okay.
More drama occurred
when Aiden’s third love
came by the house. Her
name is also Melissa, but
we’ll refer to her as Missy
from here on out. Just to
avoid confusion.
Melissa the First was not
amused. In fact there
were flamey balloons of
hate for a while around
the house.
However, it was time for
the “punishment” to
begin.
Having three of the
“victims” graduated, the
Johnson Harem sent to
Spectrum and loaded
into a lot.
Right around this time, I
downloaded a new set of
default skins. This
house also became a
testing ground for the
skins.
Here is Aiden Johnson
all grown up and
adultified.
My biggest problem with
custom skins are how
they smooth out the odd
Eaxis features so much.
I’m finding that these
smooth them some, but
not overly so. There
appears to be a slight
line in the neck region,
but it may be the
clothing. I’ve also
figured out that the
Geebivs have a different
custom skin because
only Demi’s changed
with the new defaults.
Next up, Julie. I must
admit that I’ve forgotten
her last name. In fact,
I’ve forgotten all of the
girls last names and
since I didn’t write them
down, I’m not going to
look. It’s immaterial
anyway.
Julie is a Family sim with
a LTW to graduate 3 kids
from college. She has
two bolts with Aiden.
Melissa (Jayalapan, I
think?) and her new
look.
Melissa is also a Family
sim with the LTW to
become Captain Hero.
She and Aiden have
three bolts. Their
relationship is still pretty
low from when she
caught him cheating.
Melissa the Second,
n/k/a Missy.
Missy is a Knowledge
sim with a LTW to max 7
skills. She and Aiden
have two bolts.
Missy and Aiden also
share aspiration and
LTW’s.
Aiden’s fourth love is
Jordan (Cormier, I
think?). Jordan was not
featured previously,
because she never made
it over to the Greek
House.
Jordan is another Family
sim and her LTW is also
to graduate 3 kids from
college. She and Aiden
also have two bolts.
So, part of the “punishment” and new skin testing idea is to have all four women get preggers
by Mr. Johnson. *snerk* “Johnson” *snerk* So, I built them a house, which I’m quite proud of,
and turned off jealousy on the lot. No folks, we don’t have a OTP, we have an OT4. The
women are all straight, but ACR is running rampant, so anything can happen.
The top floor, which is actually the first floor, is the main living space. Clockwise from the
upper left there’s a kitchen, bathroom, great hall, living room, 2nd bathroom, skilling/game
room, entryway, and dining room.
The basement, or lower floor holds all the bedrooms. Each woman has their own room. Aiden
does not, as he can choose to sleep with whomever he wants at any given time. There are also
two more bathrooms and two small nursery spaces. In case you’re wondering, Jordan has the
green room, Julie the blue, Missy the patchwork and Melissa the beige floral.
Aiden quickly got down
to business, hopping
from one bed to the next
to try for baby.
I used the tombstone of
L&D to speed them up.
I thought I had a larger
household hack in, but
when he finally got to
Missy, there was no
option to Try For Baby.
I’ll have to check into it,
but as a Knowledge sim,
I’m thinking she doesn’t
really have to have one.
Except I want the green
eyes in the
neighborhood. I also
want to fulfill the 3 kids
in college wants for both
ladies who have those.
So, after speeding up the
pregnancies, Julie was
first up with her
daughter, Dixie.
The names really mean
nothing. They’re just
what happened to pop
into my head as they
were born.
Dixie has her father’s
skin and eye color and
her mother’s hair color.
Next up, Melissa with
little Jules here. Ironic, I
know, but as I said,
subliminal and
unintentional.
Jules has her mother’s
skin, eyes and hair color.
Finally, Robert made his
appearance.
Robert also has his
father’s skin and eyes,
but his mother’s hair
color.
Ever impatient and
because it really has no
bearing on the Geebivs, I
also sped up the infancy
period.
Again, Dixie was first.
She’s adorable and I
think she’ll have some of
her mother’s facial
features.
Jules is also quite cute.
She’s a bit harder for me
to figure with facial
features.
Finally, Robert, who is
also adorable.
None of the kids seem to
have their father’s eye
shape, but I’m horrible
at seeing these things.
Enough genetic fun.
Back to Kaleidoscope
House we go. We’ll
return to see the kids
grow up at a later time.
Carmine had officially
moved into the Greek
House once Johnson and
his Ho crew moved on.
While the bird cage has
been in the house since
Obsidian wished for it,
Carmine was the first to
roll the want for a bird.
Prismy holds the honor
as the sorority mascot.
Scarlett promptly let
him out of his cage.
*shakes head*
Can they fly off and be
lost forever? Just
wondering because
eventually Prismy flew
back to his cage.
The semester was pretty
uneventful and Scarlett
finally finished on the
Dean’s List.
She had a few things to
finish up before making
her phone call.
I like them to grow up
into everyday clothes, so
after her shower, who
should walk by? Why
it’s Komei!
I had her greet him and
this is how she did. I’m
not sure where her
exuberance comes from.
This greeting finally
threw both of them into
crush status.
After he left, still at
crush status, Scarlett
made her phone call to
return to Spectrum.
Her transition outfit was
one she apparently
borrowed from her
mother. She said her
goodbye’s to Carmine
and moved on.
This is the last we’ll see
of Carmine for awhile.
He’s going to place-hold
Kaleidoscope House
until the next generation
arrives.
The first thing Scarlett
did upon her return
home? No, not greet her
parents. She built a
snowman.
Then she went to the
guitar and maxed her
creativity skill. This is a
good thing since she’ll
be looking for a job in
the music career track.
Her want panel also
included three face
wants for Gilbert, one of
them being an
engagement want.
I think she’s made her
choice.
Her grandparents bed
had been destroyed a
while back by one of the
neighborhood strays
that got into the house.
Stupid dog. Anyway, the
bedroom was
redecorated to suit
Scarlett.
Uma was not amused.
She also gets upset at her
husband’s missing grave.
At least I think that’s
what she’s upset about.
I went and played
Gilbert’s house a second
time and had him ask
Scarlett on a date.
Since he finally stopped
rolling the fear, he
popped the question
over dinner.
Scarlett said yes.
This is where we’ll leave
for now. Next update,
we’ll see what they get
up to and should have
Generation Four on the
way.
