Wow, that's a great idea! They make an oddly cute couple. Was it love of plaid pants that brought them together?

I didn't know the social worker brought townie kids like that. Is that how the game works or did you do something special to make it happen?

It was indeed the love of plaid pants. :) No one else understands their unique fashion sense.

I did fiddle around to make Marsha an adoptable orphan. Using Inge's teleporter bush, I teleported her onto the lot, moved her in, then used 'put up for adoption' to put her in the adoption pool. Then she became first choice for a proper adoption.

Awwww... Plaid love <3

And Marsha is pretty awesome, actually. She was adopted into one of my families too and is an elder now :)

I've seen a lot of Marsha in other people's stories/etc, so I wanted her in my 'hood too. I'll probably bring in some more townie kids later on. :D

LOL!! AWESOME!!! <3
This is great!!
And they adopted!!! YAY!!! double cute!!! <3

I Loved it!!!

And btw great idea about making the townies kids adoptable!! Its perfect and makes all sense!! Think I'll try that next time sims need to adopt ;)

Haha, glad you like it. :D They are pretty cute.

I don't really like that the game just generates a kid for adoption when there's townie kids right there, in need of a home! So yeah, in the event that someone wants a younger kid I'll probably just age a townie kid or two down to toddler (babies are largely useless anyway).

Oh, they are so cute together! I never would have thought of hooking them up, but the plaid shorts boys are just adorable as a couple. And I'm sure Marsha will be the ultimate "daddy's girl" with TWO daddies to wrap around her little fingers.

I can't remember how the idea of hooking Ben and Goopy came up, but it did have to do with the plaid shorts for sure. They match so well. :D I bet they shop for clothes at the same store, must be where they met.

Marsha will manipulate them lots, especially once she's a teen...

Aw. And I see their funky fashion sense stretches to their formal attire, too.

Love that Marsha's an orphan. That explains why she's a stalker (poor thing just wants to be loved!).

meetme2theriver May 3 2009, 21:52:58 UTC

Hee. They also have matching bathrobes, and outerwear.

Marsha is a stalker? It's been so long since I've had the default townies around.

madame_ugly May 4 2009, 02:31:49 UTC

Yeah, Marsha's a bit of a stalker. If a controllable sim brings her home from school, she'll be calling every day and coming around. She's like a cockroach.

Now that you mention it, I think I've seen others talk about this too. How odd.
