House 5: Charisma - Part 2

Pelque is in charge of skilling Lileo because has the Nurturing trait. He also has free time since he only works three times a week and supermaxed charisma and completed his liftime wish.


After trying various things to solve the problem of not passing the flirty interaction with no results, resetting the town with master controller did the trick. So Pelque wasted no time and proposed to Sandy. Both of them had the wish to marry each other and the general one.


The awkward moment when your father-in-law comes to your wedding in a bathing suit.


And on top of that, he's bored. Senility seems to have gotten a hold of him, which is not strange because I think he's already past 90.


It was a cute wedding, anyway. Both Pelque and Sandy were very happy.


The next day, a notification popped about Ken's death, confirming my suspicions that the man had passed the 90 days. Pelque retrieved his urn from the mausoleum and placed it next to ParanĂ¡'s.

There were others notifications, too.


I hope that rumor involves Ruca and not someone else, Kilka! Pelque's sister never showed interest in other sims while under my command and was very happy with Ruca. 

The one who does show interest in people other than her husband is Sandy. If I left her in free will, even for a short time, she flirts with the first sim she meets, although she has a preference for Sri Honeycutt (that name đŸ˜†) the Performance Park's proprietor. For now I'm interrupting the interactions between them, but maybe I will let it progress, a little drama after several very monogamous houses will be fun to write about.


Her flirty trait seems to be her predominant one, rather than her evil trait which she demonstrates only with scary faces.

Speaking of scary faces... The cuteness! 


Pelque started training, maybe because of the insecurity his wife's flirty doings is giving him, but the reality is that he had too much time in his hands so I'm making him learn other skills.


Something that amuses me a lot, and even more to Sandy, is that her shows seem to be the perfect moments for townies to die.

Like here. I don’t remember if she was crying or laughing. I bet on the second option.


Or here.


The trend of deaths at her shows continues, even when I lost more than a week of game and had to switch computers when mine broke. My old man lent me his, which is an old potato but it works quite well with slightly lower graphics and in window mode.

The only bad thing, as I said, is that I lost more than a week from this save. Luckily I had externally saved the Skiillos right after Lileo’s birth so I didn’t lost her. (Well, it wasn't luck, I already knew my computer was in a bad shape, so I did frequent backups of them.)
 
I repeated everything that happened so far in this chapter in more or less the same order, including some deaths at Sandy's shows. Until Lileo’s birthday.


Being an only child, the girl has all the attention of her parents. Here, her mother is doing some magic tricks to celebrate her birthday, while her father plays the guitar to celebrate the moment.
 

That same night, Sandy maxed charisma. She only needs to max her career to complete that requirement and her Lifetime Wish.



Lileo likes to talk to herself on the mirror and practice different faces.
 

She also likes to meet new people and ask them what they think of the town and what they think needs to change. She is young but she already knows what she wants to do with her life.


Sandy had her first big show one day after she became an elder.


Of course, Grim could not miss the opportunity to take the life a spectator.
 

He and Sandy seemed to cross glances. Maybe there is some kind of pact that I am not aware of? Anyway, Sandy seems very happy with what her shows accomplish. This is a form of evil that I have not seen before.



Even her fans started telling ghost stories in the middle of her recitals. Everything is very mysterious, but it cannot be denied that her performances have become the talk of the town.
 

In the midst of the controversy, Sandy maxed out her career and became a Master Magician.


Meanwhile, her husband also became an elder. And he's not very happy with it.

 
A few days later it was Lileo's turn, who is now closer to her future.


She is now a charismatic girl, to go with friendly, easily impressed, light sleeper and the hidden makes no messes trait that she inherited from her mother.


 Although that hidden trait doesn’t include this type of mess. 


Because she makes a lot of those. Maybe Sandy is a little tired of this. Or maybe not.

House 5: Charisma - Part 1

Pelque moved within the neighborhood to a premade house in which I have played a couple of times and I really like.


The reason for not moving to another town is the skill of this house. Charisma. Pelque was working towards the challenges in the previous household even if he hadn't unlocked the skill. And he did a good job of it. Learning the first level gave him the following stats:


In his second day in his new home, Pelque called her girlfriend, maid Sandy Blackburn and invited her to live with him.


Sandy traits are Flirty, Brave, Neat, Evil and Kleptomaniac. She came with the Emperor of Evil Lifetime Wish, she has the perfect traits for that and she's is in the beginning of her adult life so I toyed for a couple of minutes with the idea of making her pursue it. But, untimely, I continued with the plan that I devised for Pelque's wife. After a house with 5 rabbitholes career, I wanted a least one profession for this one.
I added Showtime so Sandy is now a Magician.


I modified her face a little without changing the color of her eyes, hair and skin. I tried to give her a face that reflects her evil trait, I think I accomplished it.

She learned a point in charisma, registered at the City Hall under the artistic name of Diabla and went immediately to perform for tips.


A few hours later, the game notified me that ParanĂ¡ passed away. I sent Pelque to the mausoleum to retrieve her grave and placed her beside her parents.


Even with the death of his mother the day before, Pelque celebrated his birthday with a party. He intended to play the guitar for his guests.


But one of them stole his thunder and did the same upstairs. Even his family preferred to listen to this sim.


At least the party was a success, not only the guests left happy with the invitation, Pelque completed the Super Friendly challenge thanks to it.


Sandy participated in her first Simfest. The public cheered her on and she was announced the winner.


Although I think the reason for winning was because everyone was a little afraid of her. I mean, I would have done the same, look at her face as she raises her sword.


At the same time that his girlfriend was at the Simfest, Pelque reached level 10 of the education career. He's now the District Superintendent. The seriousness of all this is disproved by the prank on the bench behind him, which he himself left in his teen years. If the high-ups knew their new superintendent was the one who released the frogs from the science classroom...


But no one can deny that he has a vocation for teaching, here he's tutoring one of his students on a non-working day. (This has nothing to do with it being an easy way for him to make friends while I pay attention to Sandy, of course not.)


Sandy enjoy this part of her shows a little too much. I'm becoming a fan of her face's gestures.


Pelque needed only one more best friend to complete all the Charisma's challenges.


Talking to his father did the trick. They were good friends so a couple of calls were enough to do the last challenge. He was still a level 8 on the skill, so despite having completed all the challenges he still hadn't supermaxed it. So to the library he went.


And after several hours sitting on the bench outside the library, Pelque not only supermaxed charisma but also completed his Lifetime Wish Golden Tongue, Golden Fingers.


Sandy, for her part, continued with her presentations and being all around creepy. Her diabolic face is well diabolic. đŸ˜ˆ


However, for her boyfriend she only has tender looks.


And for her baby, too.


Now that his girlfriend is pregnant, Pelque has the wish to propose her, but something about their interaction is buggy. They never pass from the flirty stage and then drop to okay even if they do a lot of romantic actions. In order for Sandy to get pregnant I had to make them relax in bed first and then to try for baby. So Pelque may be the first non married heir, not that it really bothers me, but I was thinking of having a wedding party in the house of charisma.

Both Pelque and Sandy don't have much to do, he because has already met all his requirements and Sandy because of her pregnancy, so they are goings on dates to the new places in the town.


Sandy went into labor in the morning, so being a neat sim she made her bed first.


Fifth gen is born! Lileo Blackburn (I'll change that shortly) is the heir because she's going to be the only kid in this household. Sandy is only seven days to elder and I want to focus in her career.


She inherited her father skin and favorite color, pink. Her traits are Light Sleeper and Easily Impressed. I have two different plans for the next house, so for now I trying to select traits that can go well with either. I guess I'll have to decide before she turns into a child.


She was immediately taken to blow out the candles of her cake and aged to toddler. I like her random dark brown hair, it looks good with her skin. I think she looks a good mix of her parents.


I played up to here so I'm going to take a few days to play before I post the next one.
