*yay*

Hehe, I really like your take on Olive. And I also like how you've used the poses. Aww man, I recognize the first bad boy.. I just can't place the other two (or his parents lol) They look familiar..
^-^

Lol@ the Grunt family dinner..
Back off.. My cheese.. XP

Thanks! There are so many people who have written so many great stories where Olive is a crazy serial killer that I wanted to put a different spin on it. She's still got her own secrets, which I have planned for her, but I'm trying for more sympathetic.

Ah, another great chapter.

I feel for Ophelia, nothing ruins the teenage moping like reasonable adults. And I like how the teenage POV makes the big bad grown-ups seem sympathetic. I mean, Buzz has a point - what's the use of college if Ripp is going to work in a gas station anyway? (I really doubt Buzz thinks knowledge itself is a reward.)

Your posing looks really good, I particularly like the scene between Ophelia and Johnny.

Thanks!

No, Buzz doesn't really care for knowledge in and of itself. For him it's a tool, like a smart missile or a new satellite grid. It's tough trying to write for him, to keep him from being a total jerk you have to see his point, but at the same time, he really doesn't know how to talk to Ripp, and there is some clear favoritism going on.

Thank you. I'm super happy with the one I used for the teaser, and proud that I figured out how to blend several poses to get Tank's arm on the table, but I feel a little silly with them at times. I only have one pose box right now, so I'm hyper critical that everyone is noticing "Oh, that's female sitting #4 again."

Your teaser picture is lovely and it drew me in to read your story. I'm liking it a lot so far. I've friended you to keep up with this.

Nice to see some different takes on some of the characters (Olive, Buzz). The Ripp - Buzz conversation was really good and credible.

And little Jill is adorable in her apron.

I responded to this before with my non-sims journal. Whoops!

But thank you so much for taking the time to read. I hope to add some more intrigue to Olive soon.

Olive is wicked scary! Especially with those wrinkles. xD I love that description about how the Grunt family eats - your characterisations are so awesome!

I'm friending you to follow the story, hope you don't mind.

Olive's maybe not so scary as she is in other stories, but maybe I'm saying too much. After writing for the Grunts I've definitely warmed up to them a lot. They're all precious little snowflakes in their own way.

I opposite of mind being friended, and I'm friending you to follow your story as well.
