Trailer Park ChallengeSpare Update the First

“Dude? Are you okay?”

“NO.”

Welcome back to Pras’s College Shenanigans!

I quickly realised that me settling down with Oliver wouldn’t be a good idea. We agreed to put things on hold for a while, meeting other people, y’know?

Like Alec, my Physics professor.

In the heat of the moment I fell for him too, but don’t expect me to go steady anytime soon. Mama’s gotta have her freedom.

One day I got this sudden urge to just pair everyone up, y’know?

Unfortunately I don’t seem to be cut out for match-making. Poor Chuck, I think he actually would’ve enjoyed dating Gordon.

Fortunately he found someone in the dorm to be much more interesting.

Chuck and Dominique became one pretty much right away.

They’re together everywhere they go, and when they’re together, they’re all over each other.

I feel like a hypocrite for saying it, but they should keep their business a bit more discrete.

I still frequently hang out with Gordon. I can not stress how great of a friend he is.

He picked Philosophy along with the other guys, and apparently the chess board I bought really helps them in their studies.

How exactly, I don’t know.

In Senior Year I made a deal with my bestie to give and receive sugar whenever and wherever until one of us finds someone more suitable. I’m surprised that he didn’t have any objections when I suggested it.

See, the thing about having no strings attached is that I can go around wooing whomever I want, even the llama, with no drama whatsoever.

I’ve been getting frequent calls from home. At first it was only Neppy but after Bar’s… accident, Cal decided to improve his relationship with me.

Apparently he still doesn’t know how to read a clock.

“Who ordered two body-sized bags of cheese?”

And then, after so much studying and so much fun…

... it was time to leave.

And here’s where the 4th wall breaks and my narrative kicks in.

Skip to slide 39 if you only want to know what the in-game borns have been up to.

Guess who fell in love with Pras just before the final exam?

I even wrote a prompt about it for simfic50. You can find it on my livejournal, it’s based off the word “broken”.

“May so be, that our glasses are empty, but with you, I always see them as full.”

Quick recovery?

Apparently not, since his want panel kept demanding that I summon her through the Sim Blender (she was still in the sim bin, so no phone)

After a while he wanted to try out the true bachelor life.

When, in the history of ever, has anyone burned a TV dinner??!

These two are the cutest couple ever :3

Look, they even sleep in each other’s beds!

I ship them so badly <3

So, adoption or same-sex pregnancy?

I couldn’t stand Gordon being miserable *cough*he’ll get Pras later*cough*, so I tried hooking him up with others.

This particular lady is Virginia Woodrow.

But it all came back to Denene in the end.

I didn’t expect for him to roll a “get engaged”-want so quickly, but hey, it works. Denene’s pretty interesting, she wants to become a City Planner.

Also, Virginia died.

Meh, she didn’t hold much emotional value to me anyway.

I am somehow so amused and not at all surprised by Gordon’s reaction.

The dorm hauntings began that very same night :D

Think I’ll keep the grave right there by the sidewalk. Maybe it’ll keep the cow mascots away.

At last, the big graduation day arrived.

Blessed be the College Adjuster, for letting me skip semesters and change the grades of these fake Knowledge sims with zero motivation to be in this joint.

It was also the first and last time that Sterling Clark ever dined with the students.

Does anyone have a fix for the “can’t call service sim”-bug?

Gordon and Denene moved into an apartment complex by Maranatah at modthesims.info .

Dominique and Chuck moved in right next door.

Chuck is a Family Sim (originally or by me? Can’t remember) so I’m planning for them to have a heap of kids.

Conveniently enough Pras moved into the very same complex.

I won’t actually post their doings along with the spare updates, I’m just writing all of this so that you won’t get confused when non-Ottomas playables come home from school with the kids.

If you happened to skip the part I wrote for my own amusement: Pras moved into an apartment with her dormie amigos as neighbors. One of them is madly in love with her.

Now, let’s see what happened in her first week of adulthood!

Her Romance side has kidnapped her Knowledge side and is waiting for me to pay ransom. Or maybe it’s just springtime.

Anyhow, she keeps rolling lovey wants, and of course as soon as I invite someone over she makes a booty call to Oliver.

And of course one of them brought a friend.

I’ve seen enough [NSFW] to see where this is going.

“Now kiss!”

As some of you may remember she wishes to become the Hand of Poseidon, but Oceanography didn’t show up until later so I had her work in Medicine for a while. Having a degree in physics started her out as a nurse.

#logic

I used to wonder where all the paper-thieves had gone.

Now we know.

What the – Bruce, how did you get in?

“Relatives automatically get spare keys.”

Behold! A llama boy has entered the crowd of men!

They obviously had a mind-blowing date.

“Here! Take all of my money!”

“Hmm… I’m going to write that down as low medium.”

NETWORKING! NETWORKING EVERYWHERE!

This guy kept rolling wants and rejecting the corresponding actions -_-

Boo-yeah! I’m still the date doctor!

Nevermind that she doesn’t own a TV.

Noodle the elder cat walked by, so I used the Sim Blender to move him in.

I had to, okay? His name is Noodle.

…well, as long as the want gets fulfilled.

Another cat walked by, named Moonshine.

I hereby announce my mission to move in as many stray cats with funny names as possible.

“Hey, Phil, we’ve been burning for about a week now. How long do you think it’ll take before Mia downloads the fix?”

“I don’t know Dan, but what I do know is that Gary’s about to get struck by lightning.”

Uranium moved into a trailer park by leefish, also from modthesims.info .

She somehow got a job as a File Clerk in the Law career.

Her spare time activities now consist of anger management studies and painting.

Mostly painting.

Ah, the requests for scored outings. The one thing I didn’t like about Nightlife.

To celebrate her new-found freedom a housewarming sports party was thrown.

It didn’t go all that well.

Observe one of the guests, Juan Reamon. He stays in his apartment all hours of the day and does practically nothing to improve his needs. In Strangetown I had to kill him off to stop getting the window-in-window pop-up about starving. He is literally the most self-harming sim I have ever met.

Ever since Ura knocked on his door he’s been visible, and there seems to be something wrong with it. I managed to fix the issue but I’m still worried about his well-being.

Just kidding, I wouldn’t cry over losing him.

But they do have two bolts.

“Umm… Jamie? We’re kind of on a date here.”

“As a co-worker I have full freedom to investigate your neighbor’s living condition.”

Aaaaw

“Wanna move in?”

“Sure, I can be your roommate!”

“I mean for realsies.”

Glasses

…

Ladies and gentlemen, we have autonomous lullaby.

Juan was originally a Horoscope Writer in the Journalism career, but I decided to let him follow his dreams.

“Hey sis! How do you like my boyfriend?”

“He stinks. But he seems nice.”

“Hi Sam! How come you’re talking to me as a child now even though you were a baby in chapter 11? Oh right, because Voice is bad at keeping timelines straight.”

Mock me all you want.

I’d say these two were my favorite couple, but then I’d be lying.

The PJ colors are a complete co-incidence, by the way.

“But I haven’t thrown up even once! Juan! Juan!”

“Hngh… that’s great honey…”

“Ugh, I’ll just tell him when I get back from work.”

I think it’s nice that Juan wants to bond with his girlfriend’s twin.

*ignores that one chemistry bolt*

“Mom, what are you doing here?”

“Thought I’d just drop by and see how my baby girl is doing.”

“After all, we live right across the street. When’s the wedding?”

“Um… what do you mean?”

“You think you can fool your mother with that belly?”

“We’re… we’re having a baby?”

“That’s right. But… I’m not really in the mood to get married.”

“Me neither. Let’s just stay in a committed relationship.”

The landlord threw a ‘building party’.

Which no one attended.

#foreveralone

Are you really going to spend your entire maternity leave on the computer?

“I’m playing classical music to the baby. You should be thankful.”

And then, on one rainy Sunday morning…

… a baby girl named Meson was born.

The circle of life ♫

Unfortunately Mufasa was unable to attend the ceremony.

“Voice, I want her to have a normal name.”

Mari-Meson then. Mesons (/ˈmiːzɒnz/ or /ˈmɛzɒnz/) are hadronic subatomic particles composed of one quark and one antiquark, bound together by the strong interaction. All mesons are unstable, with the longest-lived lasting for only a few hundredths of a microsecond.

“Aren’t you the cutest little thing!”

Well, that’s it for this season. Happy simming!
