Binsonville: Clearing out the Sim Bin! Chapter 4: The Russos
Finally we're to the Russos! I'm so excited to finally be playing them. Lots of birthdays happening this week. Brock is due to have his adult birthday. Super stoked about the household getting a little smaller.
Kate and Amin with their two boys, Brock and Oliver. And Marisa and Cik with their son and neighborhood most popular kid, Marik. Not pictured is Leroy the dog.
There's Leroy! He is so cute.
As usual, here is the current state of the house. They currently have about $20k in the bank. So there should be some good progress this week.
Marisa and Cik's room was the first to get an update.
I feel so dumb, some how I missed checking Marisa's inventory. They have been struggling so long. I'm keeping the hottub and selling everything else.
Now they have a back porch.
Kawaii!!!!
I'm beginning Kawaii is a ninja. Literally one pet and she is off.
I'm going to get you!
They now have enough money for the fortune sims to start rolling expensive wants.
Someone finally brought Pinc home!
George came over too.
The front foyer became a cops and robbers battleground.
Marisa brought home the first promotion to architect's apprentice.
I haven't had sims in private school for a long time. So I had Kate invite the headmaster over. BJ Ryan thoroughly enjoyed the Russos, and the kids are now in private school! And did you know there is a 10 point bonus if the headmaster hops in the hot tub. I missed a picture of it sadly.
Most of the adults were off on Tuesday. So a perfect time to work on skilling.
There's stuff I should have done first. But I decided the downstairs needed a color palette.
Marisa pretty much funded the repaint with her promotion draftsman.
Oliver and Marik didn't bring any friends home, nor any homework. So skilling it is. They actually picked the ballet bar themselves.
Brock's birthday is tomorrow, I need to get his aspiration up so he doesn't have a meltdown about not going to college. Luckily for me, he is easy to please with a visit from Sophie.
I gave all the adults their allotted elixir. I feel like the adult lifespan is a little too short. So everyone gets one bottle of elixir.
Kate, I would like to remind you that this is not a BACC, you don't have to start fires.
Teens are invading the house, it's birthday time!
Brock and Marik had a double birthday! And I grew up Sophie too. Cause thanks to encouragement from nooboostar, Brophie is on!
Marik rolled to be gay, and a romance/fortune sim. I have a feeling Hunter and him are going to have some fun. Thankfully he wants to have 5 top level businesses instead of another woohoo 20 sims or something like that.
Brock invited Sophie to move in. She is a fortune/knowledge sim that wants to make $100k.
I fixed Marik's hair and got him some new purple clothes.
Omg, this is the first time I've had the cops come break up the party.
I think I know why rofl.
With Marik being a romance sim, and not likely to have many kids. I decided to try for more green baby. I need more minty sims in my life.
I am loving Sophie's makeover. I don't think I have ever played her before.
Sophie took a job as a politician mainly cause it was the high paying option.
*facepalm* Amin, it's not a BACC....elocutions aren't necessary.
Marik invited Hunter over, the only other gay sim in Binsonville. They're both romance sims, so no surprise they hit it off.
Sophie earned her first promotion to lobbyist.
I missed their first kiss T.T
Brock finally proposed to Sophie. The wedding will be on Saturday!
Cik earned a promotion to tap dancer!
Fingers crossed for a green baby.
What Marisa died? No she didn't....what cheaty bone phone? There's no bone phone.
Cik, Amin, and Marisa are all sick with the flu. So Cik whips up some comfort soup for them.
Marik brought Isaiah Gavigan home with him.
Sophie managed to get promoted to campaign manager and brought home a sweet $5k bonus from a chance card. I let her put the chance card money in the bank for her mansion.
Kate was promoted too, to restaurateur. We have to be close to topping at least one of the careers.
Oliver brought home Jack Goodie with him. Last day for bringing home kids. Ollie's birthday is tonight.
Both Brock and Marisa were promoted too. Brock to draftsman and Marisa to architectural partner.
At this point my game crashed and I hadn't saved since Tuesday. So I sped 2 through the replay. There were a few extra promotions, and Marisa didn't die for reals this time. And I saved as I went along.
Anyhow, we're back at Friday afternoon.
We're just gonna ignore the sky in the picture. Ollie rolled to be a popularity/romance sim. I feel like half the neighborhood is romance or fortune in some way. He wants to become the Law.
Saturday means it's wedding day. Any the party is barely start and sims are already in the juice.
Meet Brock and Sophie Miguel!!!
Sophie is not a cake stuffer. It's good she cut the cake then. I have a feeling Brock is a cake stuffer.
No luck on a second green baby, but we do have our first girl! Meet Carisa.
I spy with my little eye a Kawaii! Again she left right when she was greeted.
Brock brought home one last promotion to architectural partner!
Finally it's time for Brock and Sophie to move out on their home. They have a mansion to build. Amin and Kate donated $10k to their home building funds. They also have just under $12k in the bank from their own earnings.
Marik got distracted from cooking dinner to say goodbye. And started another fire.
One last look at the house. It's pretty much done, and they have plenty of money in the bank now. So I'll have to find something to do with it.
That's it for the Russos. There's a vote over on Boolprop https://www.boolprop.net/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=6769 on what mansion Brock and Sophie are going to build. Be sure to check it out! It ends on Monday 11/9. Until then, you guys stay safe and happy.
