First things first: my boyfriend finished his final thesis this week! W00t! No more assignments for you, young man! I went with him when he handed it in, and we had a little celebration with friends afterwards and I'm really proud of him.
This was the newsworthy part of this update. :D
Now, I could probably make an informative post, about my trip to New York (awesome) or about job hunting back in Berlin (boring), but instead, Imma pointlessly spam you all with some Sims 2 because that's how I roll.
Remember how
I screamed in all your ears last year because two of my sims, Bela and Fenix (who are original characters of mine), spontaneously fell in love with each other? And I said I'll keep playing them? Well, I did. And then I took a gazillion screenshots of it. So here's a picspam. Just don't expect them to be smart, or cool. They're sims. XD
Be warned: there's some ... 40 odd pictures under the cut! This journal is a death trap for dial-up users, I swear. ><"
Since they were so hilariously in love with each other (I rarely have three-bolters in my game!), I sent them to college together. I gotta say I had funnier uni sims (like my Death Note ones), but I love them, anyway.
One of the reasons is that Fenix is seriously one of my favourite selfmade sims ever. I mean, look at him and his puppy dog eyes!
<3
<3 <3 <3
...all right. I'll stop now.
Grown up!Bela is interesting in that he looks really pretty from some angles and then really fucking weird from others. But I like it. All in all, he turned out great.
If he does say so himself!
Fenix: My attraction to you makes me RAGE SO HARD
Fenix: But anyway, call me! Nevermind that we live in the same house and whatnot, call me!!
Every morning, Bela would sneak into Fenix' room, stare at the painting over his bed, laugh at it, and repeat. For hours. Until Fenix got up. That's when it occurred to me that Bela was probably doing it to be ~*~close to him~*~.
That, or he is really obsessed with that painting.
He pulls classy shit like this, too. Also, I don't think that's how you should use a toilet.
Oh, and there's drama! Somehow, Bela made a mortal enemy in this cheerleader, with whom he engages in visceral catfights. All. The. Time.
And get his ass handed to him. All. The. Time.
Son, I am disappoint.
Why disappoint, you ask? Well because he is really, really fit. He'd do high-end yoga shit like this, but somehow gets the crap beaten out of him by a girl every single day?!
Though I'm sure all that flexibility will come in handy when he eventually has sex wohoos.
Yeah. She'd ...just show up unannounced and whoop his ass.
Fenix: ...let's eat our delicious burgers someplace else.
Myra: There's a fight going on :) :)
Evil!Cheerleader: Soon.
At some point I thought I'd let Fenix do the chivalrous thing and ~*~fight for his love~*~
WOAH WOAH WAIT A MINUTE
Now that's what I'm talking about.
Aaaand defeat.
Disappoint.
Okay, this is where the really boring part starts. Like I said, I love these two, so they lead a pretty charmed life. At some point I had to laugh to myself because I realized they are a pretty clichéd perfect gay couple ...
They work together on their custom car ...
... cook 5 star meals ...
Fenix: Oh my, will I get the canapees ready in time?
... set fire to the kitchen ...
... squeeze delicious pink juice out of fruits and vegetables they grow themselves ...
(Yeah, I'm, not kidding)
... and make elaborate desserts!
I had him do this because sometimes, sims light themselves on fire while cooking this dish (my Mello sim did once and it was beautiful), and I kinda wanted to see that. But my attempt at disaster was thwarted by Fenix and his 10 cooking skill points. :(
And then, Bela got arrested.
But don't worry, it was just part of the ceremony to welcome him into the university's secret society. I just had to get him in. How did he do that, you ask?
As all my sims do it. By charming the pants off every single member.
Fenix: Food! I love food! *plusplus*
Fenix: Wait what
Why did Bela do that? Well, for the same reason all my sims do: to rob the place blind so he can have a cowplant in his garden!
Dude seriously, ilu, but if you're too dumb to turn around and walk over to that plate with pancakes, you kinda deserve everything that's coming to you.
(He survived.)
Fenix: I know he only pointed that way to cheat at chess while I'm not looking but I just love him so much :) :) :)
Then, a few days before graduation, FINALLY. YES. REVENGE IS OURS.
Bela: You will die by my hands ^___^
And ... that's it, basically! Except not really since I have approximately 8000 more pictures of them. They graduated from uni and I'm still playing them. So there might be another picspam in your future. At least I know it'll be in mine! XD
BOOYAH.
