legacy » o'shea 1.1
Meet Steve O'Shea, a slightly Irish, family orientated lad who has dreams of marrying off six children in his lifetime. It's a shame they all have to be his own children, otherwise I'd just send him down to the local youth centre with a bag full of money.
Steve's stats are 4.10.4.4.3 and he's turned on by larger people with body hair but god forbid they are wearing swim wear *vomit*
Steve was made by the very talented stakeit_uk - I have just aged him up into adult hood.
I actually attempted to build Steve's shack instead of doing one of the two things I usually do at the start of a legacy which is a) cheat and buy a starter house or b) build a box and let them suffer. The shack has shape and style and is decorated in the style of a single man. Because of this, Steve now has §20 in his pocket till payday.
I will try to keep the number of "spam" pictures down in later updates, but for the moment, lets all look at Steve and wonder at the wonderfulness of stakeit_uk's Sim making talent. For he certainly has a gift with Body Shop.
Steve has a lots to keep him busy whilst he awaits the illustrious Welcome Wagon of Green Island.
Steve: People like homemade craft right? When the Welcome Wagon arrives, I'm sure they'd all love to see my hard efforts at sandcastle building.
Considering how many pixel_trade townies I know have a turn on of high creativity, I'd suggest that you giving them a guided tour of your sandcastle town would not be the best idea today.
So, he waits. And waits. No Welcome Wagon shows and it's getting later in the day.
(Meanwhile, I'm searching my hack folder to figure out why the hell the WW isn't turning up anymore)
Instead, Steve heads to the local bowling alley in hopes that a sneaky pint of Green Island's finest and a natter with the friendly barmaid might help his chances finding true love in town. After all, the friendly barmaid is friendly. She knows everyone.
Sorcha: (sounseelie) You really didn't need to go talking to the friendly bar maid. I'm right here.
Well if that isn't a slightly frightening welcome to the joint.
Steve: I'm Steve. I'm a legacy founder and I'll be straight with you. I'm looking for a lady, or a man, to help me populate this neighborhood with my spawn and their spawn's spawn and their spawn's spawn's spawn.
Sorcha: We just met! I might be all matchy matchy with you, all yellow and stuff, and you've got the alien eyes, I've got the alien skin, but I am not ready to just go and pop out kids.
Maybe Steve will have better luck with Zooscopy (mikelisryker) - they have matching glasses, so clearly they are meant to be together.
Which Steve points out to Zoo, with great enthusiasm.
Zoo: Too soon, too fast....
Steve: I'm going to have to go all old Old Spice Guy on these people, aren't I?
You go right ahead, Steve and be Old Spice Guy (without the rippling muscles and towel thing going on, but hey) but watch out behind you, because Max (niloublue) is standing right there.
Steve: Help! I've got some spinach stuck in my teeth!
Max: I just wanted to come over and compliment you on those fine set of glasses there and of course, introduce myself *coy laugh*
Steve: Oh, of course! I'm Steve and I'm a legacy founder....(You know the rest)
Max: Well, let me tell you, Steve! I might not have eggs, if you know what I mean, but I sure do know how to kick start a spawn or two.
Steve: *is slightly flattered, embarrassed and excited all in one go*
No trip down to the bowling alley is actually complete without playing bowling!
Not bad without a single body point!
I'm throwing in a few of bondchick_nett's challenges every time something exciting happens in game - you know, just to spice it up a bit. I was hoping for a challenge and boy, did random.org deliver:
Secret Diary of a Call Girl (or Guy): your sims are the victims of the global economic downturn and everyone has been fired. Nominate one of your sims to become a lady/gentleman of the night; all money earned for the week must come from selling the items gifted to the sim from dates they go on with random sims they meet at community lots.
and since Max was just so welcoming the other day at the bowling alley, of course he was first in line. But a date in the bathroom? That's just peculiar.
Max: Look, I'll be honest Steve. I'm a Fortune Sim. You live in a shack. We might have bonded at the bar and again in your over-sized bathroom, but now I see this...and to be honest, I'm not sure I can contribute to your wish for many, many spawn and their costly marriages.
Steve: But...but...we can be friends, right?
That was better than what I expected, although no rose, no gift, means no money. Not such a good start!
Why not?
Steve: Can't you see I'm not in the mood for that?!? (Yes, it really popped up)
Also, Steve forgot to call a taxi and stood poor Dione (stakeit_uk) up.
So, since they had the insta-friend-boost, why not send them on a date?
Steve: I'd just like you to know that I think that I might kiss you at the end of the night, if all things go well.
Steve: How about you try a mouthful of my pork chop?
Dione: Oh no thanks, I'm a..umm, err... vegetarian.
Steve: Dione, she intrigues me. She runs cold, she runs hot. Do you think she might like me enough to give me something so I can afford to pay my phone bill?
Oh Steve, you and your priorities.
Steve will be dining out fine tonight! Pizza for everyone!
After three visits to the bowling alley, the "Scope Room" option finally comes up.
Steve, meet Imelda (stakeit_uk). Imelda, meet Steve.
Back at the house, we have our first date gift!
Steve invites Imelda over for their first "official" date.
You know a date is going to go well when their first autonomous action is to have a dance.
Steve: You'll never forget me now! Who has a pillow fight on their first date?
Imelda: Well, it's childish but it's just too much fun to resist!
*the sounds of "Money, Money, Money by ABBA play in the background*
Since Steve isn't working, he has a lot of time to sit around after dates watching the world go by.
Steve: I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO SELL!
Steve: Besides, I'm too busy sun baking to go down to the library to list everything on eBay.
But you had that hot date last night, Steve, didn't you get anything from that yet?
Steve: Not yet, but I expect Imelda to be around later today to drop off whatever she wishes to gift me.
Will Steve be able to pay his bills or risk a visit from the repo man? Will he continue dating the ladies or meet up with some men? What will happen next?!?
