I decided that Arne Karlsson needed a spouse so I had him use a bold pick-up line on the librarian and moved her in. I decided to let autonomy do the rest. Unfortunately, they didn't do much in the name of love, the pink bar faded to zero, and the librarian was deleted!
That's a shame. I've found that autonomy is good enough to spark a relationship, but they're not savvy enough on their own to take it to the next level (at least in my games)
Ok, so I just hired the staff for the club. There are spots on the roster for 6 dancers and 2 janitors, and you would naturally think that it would let me pick any Sim I wanted, right? Nope-instead it only gave me a choice of like 20 (maybe 12 women and 8 men). So given my limited choices, my dancers are; Tina Peeping, Eva Capricciosa, Moira Fyres, Nina Caliente, Sofia Bjergsen and Supriya Delgato. Not my dream team by any means, but I did the best I could with what I had to work with.
And the janitors are; Dylan Sigworth and Ted Roswell. Ted is a funny pick--this guy is a millionaire that lives in a mansion, and he's cleaning toilets and mopping floors now...
Darren O'Ryan (aka Darin Orion) is my Sixamite, newly arrived to an abandoned cottage in Brindleton Bay.
The Delgato's came by as the Welcome Wagon. Supriya rather quickly discovered that Darin was not all he seems.
So I sent Justin home and memory wiped Supriya as damage control.
Darin's companion is the 'pug' Frankie. Like Darin, he is not exactly terrestrial (or completely canine). Frankie needed to do his business. Darin says "Whatever you do, don't do it inside."
Then this happened
I picture Darin being all "Not Cool!" or even swearing.
@Jasonschick80 lol I can sorta see that! Really hoping I could flesh out the story soon and get to play with her.
@NRowe Thanks! She’s at the Hound’s Head lot in Brindleton Bay. It’s all part of the lot dressing. It has this long driveway and a big front yard with a fountain which was perfect for the build I made.
Ok, so last night was my first night running the club, and surprisingly, it was a big hit! Made a lot of money on opening night, mainly on drinks (that's where most of those clubs make their money). The one annoyance--getting the dj to go home after the club closes. I wasn't given any prompts to send him home, ask to leave, etc. I finally wound up just sending my guy home with the dj still in the club.
Oh, and I think I'm going to have to fire Ted Roswell, because he's the worst janitor ever! He will not clean anything, and his idea of taking the trash out is shuffling trash from one can to another, without taking any of it to the trash can outside the back door. Dylan Sigworth is doing ok...he even fixed a broken sink in the ladies dressing room without me having to tell him to do it
"Erik, I'm proud of you, son," Joseph Cantrell said. "You set your goals and you gave up your summer to pursue them. And, now, it's your moment. Congratulations."
"Just one more thing, don't let it go to your head." The father warned.
Erik had the morning off and a few hours to go before the moment struck. So, needing to do something with himself, since he'd spend the evening hours last night helping to clean up their mansion home, he headed out to the all but neglected green house.
He was gratified to see there was work to do. So, he got right to it.
"Will you look at those weeds," he said to the scarecrow, since there was no one else around.
Not afraid to get his hands dirty, he actually found this chore relaxing.
After showering, shaving and brushing his teeth it was finally time to head downtown, Del Sol Valley. Everyone came, with the exception of his older brother. Aaron had caught a stomach bug and was feeling pretty lousy. "I'm sorry I can't be there, Erik. I know how hard you've worked for this."
"It's okay, bro, I'm sure there will be plenty of pictures. You rest and get better, okay?"
"Sure, I'll try not to die on your moment."
"What a kidder."
Once Erik found his designated spot, his family and friends gathered around. They waited for a few minutes to allow for the press and his fans to arrive before the actual ceremony began. Finally, it was time. Erik got down on his knees. His stomach was suddenly fluttering around as if he had swallowed a bunch of butterflies. He hoped he hadn't caught Aaron's bug.
Reaching up, he caught the frame as it was lowered down to him. Is this a dream?
"Hold it right there, Erik," a Paparazzi called out. The flashes and clacking sounds of cameras went off. I've been framed! Erik thought.
Erik was amazed as he guided the frame into its spot in the pavement. He didn't expect the sparkle and shine. The glow was amazing.
Then it was over. Erik got up off of the ground again to thunderous applause.
While Erik was busy placing his frame into the cement, Joey was busy planting himself into the pavement. Erik looked over his shoulder as he heard the many gasps behind him. He wondered for a moment if he had ripped the back of his pants or something.
No, it was just Joey. What was up with his younger brother? Lately, he was doing prat-falls all over the place.
One slip could be forgiven, and Erik surely hoped his brother was all right, but apparently, it was his intent to steal the limelight. Just as Erik let out a whoop of delight,
as if on cue, Joey slipped yet again. Pathetic. Erik thought. He never knew Joey to be the jealous type. What was up with him?
After the Frame Placement Ceremony, the family decided to go out to a formal dinner. "Let's hit the Chez Llama," Erik said, "My treat."
The family enjoyed a lively discussion.
Shortly after they were seated a young fan approached. Erik got up from his seat. The consummate celebrity, he promised himself he would never forget his fans. They were the ones who got him here.
"You're Erik Cantrell. Can I have your autograph, please?"
"Sure, here you go."
Erik resumed his seat and the waiter was there to take their order. He was impressed with how well this place was run.
"Welcome to Chez Llama, my name is Vasquez, are you ready to order?"
Dinner arrived and they paused to give thanks.
All -in-all it was a sweet day. One that Erik would likely never forget.
I'm back to playing the club again, and I realized I did a bad thing with the hiring--I hired Sofia Bjergsen without even realizing she's a teen! Now I'm gonna have to let the poor girl go, even though she didn't do anything wrong. And I also noticed that teens are allowed in the club, and even allowed to drink! I don't think there's anything I can do about that, though--there's no age-restriction settings.
Some of the customers that show up are ones I wouldn't expect. Vlad is a regular, and so is George Cahill and Caleb Vatore. And Thorne Bailey even checked the place out.
The janitor situation is still a mess. I caught Dylan Sigworth taking trash out of the big can out back and putting it into one of the cans inside (???)
Dhalia Snooboo took 5 of her 10 toddlers out to the Sandy Run Arcade. It is a family arcade and nightclub with activities for every age. They hung out in the toddler section. She also invited two of the dads. The two green toddlers are hybrid alien sim and they are twins, they are Max Rendo's kids.
If you didn't see my post on pg 45, Dhalia is a scientist who was abducted. When she came back she was redesigned to be a pollinator and impregnated 9 men before it wore off. She now has 10 children, they are all toddlers. And yes, she has a baby by Johnny Zest, Bob Pancakes, Baako Jang, Mark Eggleston and Don Lothario. And 4 other male sims I created.
wocka wocka wockaWho gave that puppy asparagus?please do not send me private messages - they creep me out 🤢🤮😱
@Rouensims it is. Thankfully none of the 10 toddlers live with her. But I often do toddler dates. Once I had all 10 of them at Magnolia park, I created a toddler section. I always invite some or all of the dads. And sometimes the wives of the dads - teehee. No hate from the wives, which is amazing.
wocka wocka wockaWho gave that puppy asparagus?please do not send me private messages - they creep me out 🤢🤮😱
I had something happen that I've never seen in my game, only in the Seasons trailer. During a monsoon in Sulani my sim gut struck by lightning twice while taking out the trash. She got "hypercharged" and was able to shoot lightening bolts for 12 hours!

Still playing the club, last night's update; 1) The butler of my Sim who owns the club is turning out to be quite the regular. That's a bit awkward. I also notice that many husbands of the wives that work there are showing up, seemingly completely oblivious to the fact that their wives work there. You would think they would recognize each other and chat, but nope!
2) The janitor situation is truly out of control, and I'm going to replace both of them today. They keep taking trash out of the bins and dropping it on the floor, just leaving it there. And they never clean up--when the club owner comes in, there are empty glasses everywhere, and oftentimes trash still on the floor.
3) Eva Capricciosa is quite the bartender! She's maxed out her mixology skill, and is making quite a tidy profit for the club
Ok, so an update from today's gameplay, because I've made some changes. Both janitors were fired, and replaced by Alika Kanananui and Ekram Elderberry-I'm noticing a big improvement already!
And I let Sofia Bjergsen go after I belatedly found out she's still a teen (oops!), and I replaced her with Judith Ward. So much for her Hollywood career, she's a dancer now lol But apparently Sofia isn't bitter, she was hanging out at the club today.
Not a good day financially for the club, though--had to order supplies, and that put profits into the red by $66. Such is the life of a club owner, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose..
Lunar Seven, my poor paranoid alien-spellcaster scientist, is having a rough time.
He keeps falling off his broom...
At work, one of his coworkers sat down while he was eating lunch and started staring at him. She never said a word to him, she just sat there staring...
And staring...
And staring...
And staring...
It really freaked him out.
And on top of that, baby Tranquility really isn't letting him get much sleep.
I don't have pics because I'm on my phone but I made a new household late last week. It consists of mom, Deanna, and her two daughters, Lucy and Laila.
Lucy has earned two degrees, Physics from Britechester and a Distinguished Computer Science degree from Foxbury. She's currently working as a Computer Engineer, almost level 10. Last night, she built her (and my) first servo, named G1g4 Byt3 (Giga Byte).
Laila is a teen and she's a goofball. She started a Comedy Club for Buckingham High and has made several friends. She doesn't take school too seriously but she's an A student nonetheless.
Deanna recently got married to Miguel Vasquez (from my custom save), and became step-mom to his two daughters, Ilana and Gabriella. Deanna and Miguel met at a Widow/Widower Support group and became great friends.

She looks as though she's trying to help you out and think up a story as well, lol.
