The boys had leftover pancakes again. Neither of the boys has the skill to make crepes or french toast and although Euan is able to make Eggs Machiavellian I forgot to pack watermelons. I did pack perfect quality eggs so I should see if Euan can make perfect quality eggs with store bought watermelons.
The boys are down to two serves of pancakes but fortunately Greg rolled a wish to prepare some
Euan's waking wish was to fish. I sent him to the derelict house where Jordan and John had fished when they were at university
When Greg finished cooking, I had him join Euan. His waking wish was to call one of the girls who came to their party and he did that before leaving home.
I sent the boys to Llama Beach. They found a soccer ball on the ground. It's a bit disappointing that the soccer ball animations are the same as for the kicky bag.
Euan got his wish to master the athletic skill which means he has now completed his LTW
A few sims arrived after a while but they went off to swim.
The lounge chairs must have a strong pull because Greg and Euan are usually not happy unless they are moving!
They did get up briefly ... only to swap chairs! LOL
I was happy to see Cid arrive
I made the boys get out of the chairs to socialize.
I get so annoyed when badly dressed pudding NPCs show up
When the boys finished socializing they played catch.
Greg reached level 9 in the athletic skill while they played One more skill point and he will also have his LTW
I saw that Cid was also not immune to the pull of the lounge chairs
I sent the boys home. They both went for the board breaker but Euan got there first. Greg didn't seem to mind and went around the corner to dance
He didn't get to dance for long because he got a text that Harold Assange's party was starting.
The boys arrived just before Harold got home.
Greg chatted with the host while Euan prepared some sushi with the morning catch
The boys had time to dance a little before eating
Harold had already found the sushi. Gah, I can't stand seeing slob sims eating!
Fortunately he was done before the boys sat down to eat
The boys watched the stars after dinner
Since the party was a dud and it was getting late, I sent the boys home.
No kiss wishes from Euan this morning
Greg's waking wish was to talk to Joanie Arc. While he called her, I had Euan make some Eggs Machiavellian.
Although Euan didn't wake with a wish to kiss Greg, he did roll a wish to woohoo with him while they were eating
The boys visited the Grotto while they waited for the bowling alley to open. Greg met Leonard Shelly and Euan met Jacob Salaman.
When Euan tried to boast about his grandkids, he discovered that Jacob was Mean Spirited.
I sent the boys next door to the bowling alley when it opened. They couldn't wait to get away from the Grotto
They got there so fast that the sims already there hadn't had a chance to render
Much better!
Before I could tell the boys to start a game of bowling, they decided they wanted to do something else
Mind your own business, lady!
I noticed that Greg was in idle conversation with this sim, Billy Jean Sparks, while he was standing beside the photobooth. He rolled a wish to boast about his grandkids. I had him sit and chat with her to build up their relationship a little before he tried.
Because of the charisma skill challenges it doesn't take long for my boys to make friends and he got his wish
Euan had gone to an arcade game as soon as he was done woohooing.
While Greg was talking with Billy Jean he rolled a wish to issue a trivia quiz. I normally ignore this wish but let him have it this time. I have tuned autonomous trivia quizzes out of my game but thought it would be fun to see it at least once while the boys were at uni.
Poor Euan only got one right
I finally got to watch the boys bowl!
Greg took the only tumble for the day.
Greg received a text that Jeffrey Dean's party was about to begin.
Greg danced with the host while Euan prepared some sushi.
Before calling Greg to dinner, Euan introduced himself to Paris Vanderbuilt.
I noticed Derek Khan had arrived
Since Greg was talking to Jeffrey, I had Euan go out to talk to him.
When Greg came out to ask Euan to watch the stars, I laughed because it looked like he was suspicious of Derek's intentions with Euan
I noticed that no-one had lit the bonfire and was going to have one of my boys do it when they finished watching the stars but Jeffrey was a good host
Leonard Shelly's face when he was about to throw a test tube cracked me up
I was surprised, and Leonard looked disappointed, when all his test tube had done was make the fire bigger! I sent the boys home to bed when they had finished warming themselves because they had an early class.
The boys enjoyed Eggs Machiavellian for breakfast. Even though the watermelon was store bought the meal was perfect quality
Euan's waking wish was to water plants. Since the boys have no plants, I cancelled the wish. Fortunately, he had a wish to find a rock which I locked in the previous evening. There was a spawner very close to home so he was able to get his wish before heading off to class.
Greg had the same class but was a little behind when I took this pic.
Derek looked so cute coming out the building, I had to take a pic
The cuteness didn't last long
The boys had time for a little romance and a quick game of catch before Greg went to his next class.
I wasn't surprised when Euan chose to break space rocks when he got home.
He found several gems in the two hours that Greg was in class.
The boys had enough time for woohoo before Euan headed off to class. The shower was the perfect choice because Euan was getting a little stinky from board breaking.
Euan left with a smile on his face Greg's waking wish was to prepare a meal so I sent him to the kitchen to make egg rolls.
Euan got to Schmidt Memorial Stadium just before starting time but went in late because he rolled a wish to introduce himself to Mugsy Brotoaski and I didn't know if he would still be there when Euan got out.
I don't know what Greg was carrying on about! The egg rolls turned out perfectly
He rolled a wish to skinny dip while cooking and of course I let him have his wish
The boys enjoyed the egg rolls for dinner.
Euan got an invitation to Paris Vanderbuilt's party.
Paris was very excited about my boys attending
Greg hadn't met Paris so I had him introduce himself.
Euan rolled a wish to meet someone new as Ashley DeSorrento walked in the door but it had to wait because Greg was already asking him to watch the stars.
My boys have been to several parties since arriving at university but this is the first time they have encountered streakers!
Derek arrived while they were watching the stars. I was glad to see him because the thought of my boys being surrounded by streaking females was not my idea of fun
Euan got his wish
I found Greg doing a keg stand with help from Derek
This is the first time one of my sims has received a date call! I know I silenced the phones when they first arrived so I don't know why it slipped through. It was getting late and, when I saw two more sims streaking, I decided it was time to go home.
The boys had Eggs Machiavellian for breakfast again. After all the pancakes and waffles, I am sure they don't mind
Greg's waking wish was to study.
Euan joined him after clearing the table.
Euan rolled a wish to hug Greg amorously during breakfast
Greg had a wish to spar with Euan locked in from the night before.
Greg got kicked in the face! *ouch*
Greg wasn't deterred and went on to win
The boys had a little time before class. What better way to relax and get clean than the hot tub
The boys managed to get a woohoo in before the push to school came. Normally I hold the boys back when they are pushed to class but the boys' fun bars don't take a hit with athletic activities.
Euan went straight for his soccer ball when they arrived.
I was lining up a shot when Euan flipped onto his back when Greg's skeleton scared him! I laughed so hard the cat jumped
He got a two hour "scared" moodlet so I wasn't surprised that he put away the skeleton and got out his kicky bag
I sent the boys to the bowling alley when class got out. Greg introduced himself to Richard Randall.
I didn't need Greg's Observant LTR to know that Richard was grumpy so I was surprised when he agreed to listen to Greg's boasting.
Euan introduced himself to Lizzie Mund. They had a trait incompatibility - Euan is brave and Lizzie is a coward.
Euan only discovered three of her traits while chatting and none of those would have made her not accept Euan's boasting so I have no idea why she rebuffed his attempt. I have noticed a lot of uni students don't like kids so perhaps she has that.
The boys made their way upstairs.
Flirting led the boys to the photobooth. Greg looked satisfied
The boys had been invited to a party but they had time for dinner before they left.
I don't know why Greg is so excited. Perhaps he enjoyed seeing the streaking females last time they were here
Euan introduced himself to the host, Hanna Germanotta.
He rolled a wish to boast about his grandkids but I cancelled it when I saw that she was mean spirited.
I had the boys go out to light the bonfire because I think they look cool
The boys stayed by the fire for a while before heading downstairs to socialize.
Greg knows how to party but Euan has definitely got it wrong! He chose to study
His studying was cut short by a call for a date. I sent the boys home after that because they have an early class.
The boys started their day with a pancake breakfast. They both rolled a couple of wishes for each other while eating
I quite like the look of this house and I particularly like the front porch. I might save the house and keep the bits I like and expand it so it is suitable for a big family.
I really enjoy watching sims rushing around campus. It adds life and energy to the university experience.
Greg always brings up the rear. Even when he leaves the house first, he somehow ends up last in line! LOL
When the boys got out of class there was the usual parade of hungry sims
Greg had a little time to kill before his next class
Euan was left with the hungry horde when Greg ran off to his next class
The yard was filling with gems so I had Euan collect them because I knew he would want to break more space rocks. He got one tiberium which I had him send off to be cut because I knew I would forget it in his inventory and make him sick. As soon as I let him go, he did exactly what I thought he would
One of the wishes Greg rolled over breakfast was to skinny dip with Euan
Euan's push to class came as they finished woohooing.
Greg also chose to break space rocks. I should have had him pick up Euan's gems before he started.
It doesn't matter what time my boys get out of class - there are always hungry sims. I saw Anoki clutching his tummy when he came out the far door.
Greg was so slow coming in from the board breaker that I thought Euan would finish dinner before he got to the table.
"What took you so long?"
The boys both rolled wishes to watch the stars with each other over breakfast
Since the boys had no party invitations, I sent them to watch a movie Euan enjoyed the action movie but Greg didn't.
The both agree that woohoo is fun
The boys enjoyed an unrushed morning as they didn't have to be at their only lecture for the day until 12.
Greg's waking wish was to garden and Euan's was to visit the Academy. Since I could give them neither, I was glad when Greg rolled a wish to spar with Euan over breakfast.
Greg copped a boot in the face again! I heard the impact and winced
He came back fighting and won!
Euan rolled a wish to practise on the MA dummy when he lost. Morning wishes granted
Greg made a beeline for the stereo when they were done sparring.
He fell at least 3 times while I was watching him
While dancing, Greg rolled a wish to find a bug. I saw some butterflies nearby and sent him over.
Euan went straight for the board breaker when I released him from the dummy. I had Greg pick up some gems because they really mount up if I don't stay on top of it.
Before he could collect all the gems, the boys were pushed to class.
For once, Greg didn't bring up the rear He did get tangled up with the girl in front of him for a while but they sorted themselves out eventually.
The pained faces are up there with the homework faces. Study is obviously not meant to be fun
Greg fell asleep when his raised hand was ignored.
Euan didn't fall asleep once! He must really want that degree
Greg, on the other hand, must have been tuckered out from his morning dance
When the lecture was over, Euan rolled a wish to pour some juice. I saw that Eddy and his roomies were home, so I sent them for a visit.
"Look at the time!" Greg got no joy when trying to boast about his grandkids I noticed Greg's fun and social bars had dropped and discovered that Ronnie Blackstone had asked him to group up. Cancelled!
Euan went back for a second cup while I was concentrating on Greg.
Greg chatted with Eddy for a bit. I felt sorry for Eddy studying by himself in the kitchen and I wanted to get Greg away from Ronnie in case he grouped up again.
Eddy came out to chat so I had Euan take a photo with him
Euan is friendly so I imagine he instigated the hug but I awwwww'd anyway
Greg interrupted for woohoo so I decided it was time for the boys to go home.
The boys got their woohoo when they got home As I was lining up a shot of them coming out of the shower, I saw that they had broken it.
Euan rolled a wish to fix it
I sent Greg out to cook burgers for dinner.
Burgers are Greg's favourite meal
Euan got a text to say that Jeffrey Dean's party was starting soon.
I had Euan prepare a cheese plate.
I didn't realize that Euan hadn't met Mahmoud.
The party was well attended!
The boys tried to get juice but were thwarted every time because everyone was vying for the kegs.
Greg was on his way to the bonfire when Ludo asked for his help to do a keg stand.
He finally got there but then Euan was called in to help another sim.
I saw Greg heading for another try at a keg.
But the keg was taken!
The boys came together to flirt but I stopped them before they got to woohoo because they have their final exams the next day and it was late.
I woke the boys early for their final exams. They both had wishes that couldn't be fulfilled before class - Greg wanted to prepare a meal and Euan wanted to chat with Eddy.
They had just enough time for a kiss before heading out.
What an odd spot for a bonfire!
I enjoy watching the uni townies while the boys are in class. Derek and Madeleine had some sort of disagreement
I just missed it but Jeffrey did badly at his exam.
My boys aced it of course Greg made a beeline for Euan and I loved the look on his face
Awwwww
Greg's fun bar needed filling before his next exam so I had the boys play kicky bag.
I held him back as long as I could without making him late for class.
Euan went for the training dummy this time.
Greg passed with flying colours
Euan was still training when Greg got home.
Greg went straight for Euan when he got home
I was worried that Euan would be late but other students were arriving as he did.
Greg got his waking wish
Being a true party animal, he rolled a wish to skinny dip while cooking.
Sometimes his disciplined side wins out
Euan also passed with flying colours
Greg had prepared Euan's favourite meal
The boys were outside flirting when Greg got a text that Mahmoud Yavari's party was about to begin.
The cheese plate Euan had prepared for the last party was still there so I had Euan clean it up while Greg prepared some sushi. He now has 8 cooking skill points!
Euan didn't take long to find the keg
I let Greg have some juice when he was done with the sushi.
Euan finally got his waking wish. I had him call Eddy before the party picked up.
Greg met Miles Forthright who immediately grouped up with him!
I missed many photo opportunities because of streakers and when three photobombed as I was taking a shot of Greg and Euan's Awesome Party Makeout I decided it was time to go home.
I love it! You take great pictures.
I like John especially. Hands down my favorite so far.
I just gotta ask, I notice you are like me and like to micromanage the entire town, do you use Nraas storyprogression or do you manage things manually?
Thank you @ZhakiraP I do love taking pics. Sometimes I think I get it right
I use Nraas SP and I don't totally micromanage the entire town but I do make sure that nothing hinky is going on. I populate my towns myself and keep an eye on them as they pair up and if I find a sims aren't pairing up and wasting good genetics I do something about it. I also spend an hour or more each sim day (in the case of this short save, there can be 6 or more birthdays each day) in CAS making sure everyone looks acceptable in case my sims need to deal with them and to keep tabs on which kids are suitable as future partners for my sims' offspring.
It's the boys' last day at university.
Greg's waking wish was to call Steve Texas and Euan's was to paint.
The boys got their report cards just as they got into the hot tub.
Of course they passed!
Then it was back to what they were doing before they were so rudely interrupted
I sent the boys to the coffee shop. Matthew Tellmer asked Euan to dance as soon as they arrived and Greg caught up with his friend, Skip.
Euan rolled a wish to meet someone new so I had him introduce himself to Skip. Greg hadn't met Matthew so I had him do the same.
Brave Euan was not impressed that Skip is a coward
He was even less impressed when Skip rebuffed his attempt to boast about his grandchildren
How could I hold it against such a cute sim?
It wasn't long before my boys were dancing. If there is music, party animals will dance!
I saw Euan heading towards Scot Macklamoor. I discovered that he was irresistible so that would explain why Euan wasn't the only one drawn to him.
Irresistible sims get a lot of abuse as well and Scot was no exception. I have had my irresistible sims slapped for no reason, but usually by NPCs as my townies have good traits.
I saw Greg reacting negatively to Skip and remembered that Skip is Innapropriate.
Mahmoud bored Greg when he tried to talk about LeFromage Art School. He actually did it twice and Greg knocked him back again. They kept talking for a while so I assume Mahmoud wasn't terribly offended
Euan had been reading when another sim asked him to dance. It must have something to do with the community lot speakers.
While dancing, Euan rolled a wish to boast about his grandkids. He wasn't knocked back this time
I sent the boys home for alone time before dinner and a party they would be attending. Euan grabbed Greg as soon as they walked in the door
Flirting led to the bedroom. They continued flirting after woohoo. I kept hearing a "ting" sound and realized that it was the tiberium that Euan had had cut recently. It "tings" when it flares.
When the boys had had their fill of loving, they both headed for the board breaker.
Euan didn't stomp his foot for long and started training on the dummy instead.
The boys had leftover burgers for dinner.
Euan got a text that Paris Vanderbuilt's party was about to begin.
Greg stopped at the door to chat with Jeffrey Dean.
Euan made a beeline for the stereo in the basement. He turned it on but didn't dance.
He then headed outside to the bonfire and I saw "throw test tube" in his queue.
Pretty sparkles
I was hoping it wouldn't be the stinky one!
Unfortunately, it was Because the boys would be leaving soon, I nudged his slider to clean him.
You did it to yourself, Euan!
I saw "watch stars" in Greg's queue and nearly choked on my cup of tea when I found him watching the stars with Jeffrey!
Euan did it again! I cleaned him up but everyone else was still stinky.
Before Euan could throw another test tube or Greg could do something I would regret with Jeffrey, the boys were pushed home to collect their luggage.
There was no-one to greet them on their arrival
Cain and Niall woohooing in bed ...
and Fife and Brett were rocking the tent.
@Mikezumi They all look stunning
I just got dresser because I got tired of pulling everyone into CAS.
I love the idea of sending your elders to university!
@ZhakiraP Thank you I thought about getting Dresser but if I read it right it assigns random facial and body hair and accessories and I hate accessories and most of the facial and body hairs are totally unacceptable to me.
I sent my elders to uni or traveling because they live such short lives and I don't want to let go of them too soon. My sims get just over 50 days so I can get through the generations faster.
@thuggishsplicer SP does a great job but it doesn't hurt to keep an eye on things and lend a hand when they need it.
Everyone was streaking at that last party and I couldn't take many pics because of it! LOL
Thanks
Cain had a craving for spaghetti and ice cream so the family had spaghetti for breakfast.
Fife rolled a wish to play a game with Niall. I had them play catch while Cain took care of the ice cream part of his craving.
Euan's waking wish was to play a game with Greg so they played catch. Brett's waking wish was to meet someone new but he also had a wish to level up in Athletics locked in.
It looked like Niall was holding his own in his game with his dad.
And I wondered if Niall would catch this one when I saw Fife winding up for a hard throw.
Although Fife is not athletic he has somehow managed to get a high Athletic skill during his life. I bet this takes Niall back to his childhood
Cain's waking wish was to fish.
He's so cute I could look at him all day!
After his game of catch, Fife got his waking wish to paint.
Niall's waking wish was to play a game with Cain. He was paying his dad's brutality forward
Euan rolled a wish to spar with Greg over breakfast
I felt sorry for Cain so released him from the game of catch and Niall went in for a heat of the moment kiss
Poor Cain should probably not be gardening but sims are pretty resilient
I hadn't checked on the others in a while because I knew Fife was painting and Brett was working out. I did notice Euan and Greg woohooing but they must have gone their separate ways when they were done.

Before he could collect all the gems, the boys were pushed to class.
For once, Greg didn't bring up the rear

Greg fell asleep when his raised hand was ignored.
Euan didn't fall asleep once! He must really want that degree
Greg, on the other hand, must have been tuckered out from his morning dance
When the lecture was over, Euan rolled a wish to pour some juice. I saw that Eddy and his roomies were home, so I sent them for a visit.
"Look at the time!" Greg got no joy when trying to boast about his grandkids
Euan went back for a second cup while I was concentrating on Greg.
Greg chatted with Eddy for a bit. I felt sorry for Eddy studying by himself in the kitchen and I wanted to get Greg away from Ronnie in case he grouped up again.
Eddy came out to chat so I had Euan take a photo with him
Euan is friendly so I imagine he instigated the hug but I awwwww'd anyway
Greg interrupted for woohoo so I decided it was time for the boys to go home.

Euan rolled a wish to fix it
I sent Greg out to cook burgers for dinner.
Burgers are Greg's favourite meal
Euan got a text to say that Jeffrey Dean's party was starting soon.
I had Euan prepare a cheese plate.
I didn't realize that Euan hadn't met Mahmoud.
The party was well attended!
The boys tried to get juice but were thwarted every time because everyone was vying for the kegs.
Greg was on his way to the bonfire when Ludo asked for his help to do a keg stand.
He finally got there but then Euan was called in to help another sim.
I saw Greg heading for another try at a keg.
But the keg was taken!
The boys came together to flirt but I stopped them before they got to woohoo because they have their final exams the next day and it was late.

They had just enough time for a kiss before heading out.
What an odd spot for a bonfire!
I enjoy watching the uni townies while the boys are in class. Derek and Madeleine had some sort of disagreement
I just missed it but Jeffrey did badly at his exam.
My boys aced it of course
Awwwww
Greg's fun bar needed filling before his next exam so I had the boys play kicky bag.
I held him back as long as I could without making him late for class.
Euan went for the training dummy this time.
Greg passed with flying colours
Euan was still training when Greg got home.

I was worried that Euan would be late but other students were arriving as he did.
Greg got his waking wish
Being a true party animal, he rolled a wish to skinny dip while cooking.
Sometimes his disciplined side wins out
Euan also passed with flying colours
Greg had prepared Euan's favourite meal
The boys were outside flirting when Greg got a text that Mahmoud Yavari's party was about to begin.
The cheese plate Euan had prepared for the last party was still there so I had Euan clean it up while Greg prepared some sushi. He now has 8 cooking skill points!
Euan didn't take long to find the keg
I let Greg have some juice when he was done with the sushi.
Euan finally got his waking wish. I had him call Eddy before the party picked up.
Greg met Miles Forthright who immediately grouped up with him!
I missed many photo opportunities because of streakers and when three photobombed as I was taking a shot of Greg and Euan's Awesome Party Makeout I decided it was time to go home.

I like John especially. Hands down my favorite so far.
I just gotta ask, I notice you are like me and like to micromanage the entire town, do you use Nraas storyprogression or do you manage things manually?
I use Nraas SP and I don't totally micromanage the entire town but I do make sure that nothing hinky is going on. I populate my towns myself and keep an eye on them as they pair up and if I find a sims aren't pairing up and wasting good genetics I do something about it. I also spend an hour or more each sim day (in the case of this short save, there can be 6 or more birthdays each day) in CAS making sure everyone looks acceptable in case my sims need to deal with them and to keep tabs on which kids are suitable as future partners for my sims' offspring.

Greg's waking wish was to call Steve Texas and Euan's was to paint.
The boys got their report cards just as they got into the hot tub.
Of course they passed!
Then it was back to what they were doing before they were so rudely interrupted
I sent the boys to the coffee shop. Matthew Tellmer asked Euan to dance as soon as they arrived and Greg caught up with his friend, Skip.
Euan rolled a wish to meet someone new so I had him introduce himself to Skip. Greg hadn't met Matthew so I had him do the same.
Brave Euan was not impressed that Skip is a coward
He was even less impressed when Skip rebuffed his attempt to boast about his grandchildren
How could I hold it against such a cute sim?

I saw Euan heading towards Scot Macklamoor. I discovered that he was irresistible so that would explain why Euan wasn't the only one drawn to him.
Irresistible sims get a lot of abuse as well and Scot was no exception. I have had my irresistible sims slapped for no reason, but usually by NPCs as my townies have good traits.
I saw Greg reacting negatively to Skip and remembered that Skip is Innapropriate.
Mahmoud bored Greg when he tried to talk about LeFromage Art School. He actually did it twice and Greg knocked him back again. They kept talking for a while so I assume Mahmoud wasn't terribly offended
Euan had been reading when another sim asked him to dance. It must have something to do with the community lot speakers.
While dancing, Euan rolled a wish to boast about his grandkids. He wasn't knocked back this time
I sent the boys home for alone time before dinner and a party they would be attending. Euan grabbed Greg as soon as they walked in the door
Flirting led to the bedroom. They continued flirting after woohoo. I kept hearing a "ting" sound and realized that it was the tiberium that Euan had had cut recently. It "tings" when it flares.
When the boys had had their fill of loving, they both headed for the board breaker.
Euan didn't stomp his foot for long and started training on the dummy instead.
The boys had leftover burgers for dinner.
Euan got a text that Paris Vanderbuilt's party was about to begin.

Euan made a beeline for the stereo in the basement. He turned it on but didn't dance.
He then headed outside to the bonfire and I saw "throw test tube" in his queue.
Pretty sparkles
I was hoping it wouldn't be the stinky one!
Unfortunately, it was
You did it to yourself, Euan!
I saw "watch stars" in Greg's queue and nearly choked on my cup of tea when I found him watching the stars with Jeffrey!
Euan did it again! I cleaned him up but everyone else was still stinky.
Before Euan could throw another test tube or Greg could do something I would regret with Jeffrey, the boys were pushed home to collect their luggage.
There was no-one to greet them on their arrival
Cain and Niall woohooing in bed ...
and Fife and Brett were rocking the tent.

I just got dresser because I got tired of pulling everyone into CAS.
I love the idea of sending your elders to university!
I also let things relatively loose unless I find something I dislike or someone needs a hand.
Greg and Euan's adventures at University are amusing. I love the hearts in the last picture. LOL
That must've been a wild party...
I sent my elders to uni or traveling because they live such short lives and I don't want to let go of them too soon. My sims get just over 50 days so I can get through the generations faster.
@thuggishsplicer SP does a great job but it doesn't hurt to keep an eye on things and lend a hand when they need it.
Everyone was streaking at that last party and I couldn't take many pics because of it! LOL
Thanks

Fife rolled a wish to play a game with Niall. I had them play catch while Cain took care of the ice cream part of his craving.
Euan's waking wish was to play a game with Greg so they played catch. Brett's waking wish was to meet someone new but he also had a wish to level up in Athletics locked in.
It looked like Niall was holding his own in his game with his dad.
And I wondered if Niall would catch this one when I saw Fife winding up for a hard throw.
Although Fife is not athletic he has somehow managed to get a high Athletic skill during his life. I bet this takes Niall back to his childhood
Cain's waking wish was to fish.
He's so cute I could look at him all day!
After his game of catch, Fife got his waking wish to paint.
Niall's waking wish was to play a game with Cain. He was paying his dad's brutality forward
Euan rolled a wish to spar with Greg over breakfast
I felt sorry for Cain so released him from the game of catch and Niall went in for a heat of the moment kiss
Poor Cain should probably not be gardening but sims are pretty resilient
I hadn't checked on the others in a while because I knew Fife was painting and Brett was working out. I did notice Euan and Greg woohooing but they must have gone their separate ways when they were done.
