A Simmer's Guilt Trip

CK213CK213 Posts: 20,527 Member
Never in The Sims had I ever felt so bad for a sim that I was not intentionally being >:) to.

This is Vaughn Noble.
He is a single guy residing in San Myshuno. He loves writing and travel.
It's his dream to set up his laptop in exotic places and write to his hearts content.
06-23-19_6-09-55nbspPM.png

While partying in Del Sol Valley, he noticed a cute paparazzo: Izumi Sakamoto.
06-23-19_7-34-38nbspPM.png

They hung out and had fun together.
06-23-19_9-32-08nbspPM.png

06-23-19_10-36-42nbspPM.png

She became a romantic interest.
06-23-19_10-38-38nbspPM.png

But Vaughn began to focus on his writing skills and building his vacation home in Sulani.
06-25-19_1-31-49nbspPM.png

After achieving his initial goals, he began seeing more of Izumi.
06-24-19_2-23-35nbspAM.png

That was until he met Kalamainu'u Iona.
From henceforth will be referred to as Kala, because her full name is a mouthful.
06-26-19_11-26-29nbspAM.png

Falling for Kala:
Now that Vaughn had had several big paying gigs and income from several novels, he started taking more time to enjoy Sulani.
He headed up a group of Sulani natives focused on keeping Sulani pristine. Kala was invited of course.
06-28-19_7-06-08nbspAM.png

So the Friends of Sulani set off to clean the place up.
06-28-19_7-31-55nbspAM.png

06-28-19_7-40-05nbspAM.png

They worked past sunset.
06-28-19_7-48-18nbspAM.png

There is something strange about that girl, isn't there?
06-28-19_7-49-03nbspAM.png

Vaughn asked her if she was a mermaid.
She denied it, which only made her more interesting.
06-28-19_7-49-57nbspAM.png

The group disbanded now that their job was done.
06-28-19_7-52-30nbspAM.png

But Vaughn and Kala continued to hang out.
06-28-19_7-55-59nbspAM.png

06-28-19_8-09-42nbspAM.png

He (we) was (were) falling for her. :#
06-28-19_8-08-00nbspAM.png

06-28-19_8-17-25nbspAM.png

His week in Sulani was ending and he would go back to San Myshuno to focus more on writing gigs.
He gave Kala a key, mainly so she would be available to speed up their friendship.
06-28-19_7-57-27nbspAM.png

Kala took him up on his offer and came to see him in San Myshuo.
06-29-19_9-34-37nbspAM.png

And this is when the guilt began to set in.
06-29-19_9-39-22nbspAM.png

I would eventually have to decide between Izumi and Kala, and I didn't think it would be Izumi.
06-29-19_9-50-16nbspAM.png

I also gave Kala a key hoping to see this moment.
However, I only believe she did this because they had already become best friends and she had admitted to being a mermaid. She probably would have simply left back for Sulani if she hadn't admitted it first.
06-29-19_10-02-48nbspAM.png

Upon arriving back to Sulani and inviting Kala, she headed to the water first thing.
06-29-19_10-26-01nbspAM.png

And she revealed to everyone that she was a mermaid.
06-29-19_10-27-33nbspAM.png

06-29-19_10-29-50nbspAM.png

Yeah, Kala is the one.
06-29-19_10-34-13nbspAM.png

She moved in and I now had access to those mermaid powers.
06-30-19_2-41-26nbspPM.png

And that's when I noticed that Izumi was here.
06-30-19_2-41-36nbspPM.png

The Guilt Trip:
Oh no. :o
Look at her face.
06-30-19_2-45-53nbspPM.png

:o
06-30-19_2-46-12nbspPM.png

Aww man, she's leaving and doing the sad walk.
I thought I had better officially end it while she was here.
06-30-19_2-47-02nbspPM.png

Vaughn called her back.
But it took her too long and the social was dropped.
06-30-19_2-47-47nbspPM.png

Vaughn, being in a flirty mood, grabs her.
06-30-19_2-48-03nbspPM.png

Noooooo... :s
What are you doing? That's making things worse.
06-30-19_2-48-13nbspPM.png

06-30-19_2-48-23nbspPM.png

She's all happy now, you idiot!
06-30-19_2-48-35nbspPM.png

All that's going to happen now is we are going to stick the knife back in and twist it when you tell her you want to be friends.
06-30-19_2-49-13nbspPM.png

[Knife reinserted]
06-30-19_2-49-30nbspPM.png

[Twist]
06-30-19_2-49-21nbspPM.png

Awwm man...
06-30-19_2-49-50nbspPM.png

I felt so bad.
06-30-19_2-50-52nbspPM.png

Sure go ahead,
share with her that you discovered this mermaid. That's awesome isn't it?
06-30-19_2-51-10nbspPM.png

No it's not!
Especially when you are dumping her for the mermaid.
06-30-19_2-51-20nbspPM.png

That's it!
Go home.
06-30-19_2-52-41nbspPM.png

I'll probably get the sad face whenever we run into Izume. :p

    Ohh good. Vaughn is probably a plum bag. Izumi is beautiful and probably responsible, cooks great, and would make a great mother. She deserves better anyways.

    Izumi can't be all good, or she wouldn't be a paparazza. But yeah - Vaughn's being a jerk. I always, always, always dump the first romance before I pursue the next unless I am intentionally playing a plumbag playa.

    :D Actually my dislike of paparazzi since TS3 and my TS4 experience with them on a retail lot/vacation home did have me raising an eyebrow at her at first.

    I read this part and assumed you were going to drown Izumi with mermaid powers and I guess that says a lot more about me than you.

    Contrary to what others have said here, I almost never break up a relationship before moving on to another one. My sims are either playing the field or in committed relationships, I guess. So I have these moments quite a bit in my game. >:)

    I never have my sims cheat. I hate that it happens in real life and I just don't want it in my game.
  • LiELFLiELF Posts: 6,442 Member
    I'm surprised Kala didn't get upset when he kissed Izumi right in front of her. But I suppose Mermaid culture might be different. Personally, I'd like to see Kala dump Vaugn and go out with Izumi. :D

    Well, I could always save-as and play out Izumi's revenge.

    My thoughts exactly! I was like oh noo don't do that :s
  • FurSimsOfficialFurSimsOfficial Posts: 2,362 Member
    Alright so let me get this straight. Vaughn has a romantic connection with Izumi, then meets another girl, invited her to his home WHILE Izumi is there.. alright Vaughn *judgemental nod*

    Then he doesn't even discuss this further with Izumi and basically keeps her on the side while being romantic with Kala. Izumi is right to be upset (should be furious) and then he KISSES HER??!!! And while he just kissed Kala well?
    Then he finally tells Izumi and continues with Kala as if she should not be upset he just kissed Izumi in front of her?

    He does not deserve both girls, cause he cheats on both. But yeah, makes a good sims story :D

    I read that mermaids can't actually drown another sim, just make them tense.
    If Izumi does come around and start making advances on Vaughn, Kala might invite her into the water and give her some swimming lessons. >:)

    If a mermaid uses Summon Ocean Threat enough times on a sim it can cause them to drown. I had my merman down his girlfriends husband that way >:)
    I'm just a little bit crazy LOL
    Okay actually I'm totally and completely nuts LOL :p
