William Williamson

 

William Williamson is about to start his adult life in Veronaville. He purchased this modest house up on the hill which I named 1 Upper Globe Street.

All his worldly possessions from his backpack filled the house.

It was basic but for now he has everything he requires.

William is a Fortune Sim who wished to reach the top of the Dance career, hmm the first thing he needs is a new outfit. 

He bought clothing and also met lots of new people at H&M Veronaville.

He came away with a snazzy new look.

Going straight from the shops to his favourite Hobby lot William fancied his chances in a dance contest,

He was outdanced on this occasion by Almeric Davis. Better luck next time William.

Once home he met the Welcome Wagon of Trisha Traveller, Titania Summerdream and Antonio Monty who spent the entire day with William.

Later William was invited to a games night!

He enjoyed being down at the Sim Bowl Lanes with old and new friends.

On Tuesday William didn't find the Dance career but used his skill set and friend count to get the Education career reward. He took a job in Law as it was the last choice of the day.

He has lots of friends and it never hurts to improve their friendship level.

He set off for his first shift as a Personal Injury Attorney.

He wasn't promoted today and he found that Shea Johnston had kicked over the trash for some unknown reason.

If you remember from his college days William had a big crush with Nancy Hutchins and invited her over... she grabbed him for a 'squeeze' and they fell in love.

On Wednesday William got his first promotion to Family Law Attorney and bought Regan Capp home from work.

On Thursday still with no sign of the Dance career William moved up the ranks to International Corporate Lawyer.

On Friday William went to the Crypt O'Nightclub. He loves Nancy but still likes to look around for a possible 3 bolter (Nancy is 2), yes Jessie Pilferson here fits the bill but she's Romance and not quite what William (me) is looking for.

He enjoyed showing off on the Dance O'Sphere with Jessica Picaso watching on.

But his heart obviously lay with Nancy as he wished to ask her on a date.

Almost instantly he rolled the wish to marry her!

So during dinner at the One-Twenty-Five Cafe he surprised her with an engagement ring. She said yes.

Then he asked her back to his place and proposed she move in straight away, she added 3k to the household.

Nancy is a Knowledge Sim who wishes to max her skills, I'll miss her purple hair.

but a quick trip to H&M and it's back, and look how thrilled she is with her new look. :D 

They were married that evening in their garden with all their friends in attendance.

ah, sweeping her off her feet literally. ;)

William fulfilled a big wish!

The party rocked. Nancy rolled a wish to have a baby so they went off after the party to 'try'.

Although Nancy wanted to max her skills (which shouldn't take long using the super bookcase) she also wanted to work so took a job in the Intelligence career, she starts tomorrow (Sunday).

While she started on her skills William had this chance card....

He made the wrong choice and as you can see lost the entirety of the household funds!

Things didn't improve when Nancy burnt dinner.

But somehow William redeemed himself at work and managed a promotion to Entertainment Attorney and got some more money in the bank. (He's now officially earned 25K).

William had Sunday off so set about some jobs around the house while Nancy was at work.

She returned from work with a promotion to Reconnaissance Communicator.

Poor Hermia Capp was walking by and got zapped in a Spring lightning storm... I wonder if she'll look like this until her turn comes around again?

Meanwhile William and Nancy are still trying (and failing) to get pregnant!

Summary-

An enjoyable week for William, he worked hard and went out a lot to try and find a 3 bolt love (my idea) but all he wished for was Nancy (his idea) and so it was he got his way.

Will they have a baby next round? Will William ever find the Dance career? Find out next time! :)

Chaz Whippler- Senior Year

 

Here at Pleasantview's assigned college of Académie Le Tour Chaz Whippler dwells with his fellow dormies.

They have a year and a half to finish as somewhere along the way I must've only played half a year (Emily Lee's turn I think) so I'm playing them until graduation.

Chaz lives here with Marla Biggs, Tom Freshe, Ellen Frost and Emily Lee,

as well as Phineaus Furley, who I've never singularly played as he, Tom & Ellen were so close together on the alphabetical list I played them as a group.

There's always a panic when a tree sets on fire outside. No harm done but these three do need to have a shower now.

Phineaus was the last of the household to join the Secret Society.

I've given these members custom hair so I can tell them apart when on campus lots.

Phineaus didn't leave until he became Big Sim on Campus. :)

But we are here primarily for Chaz, he is a Romance Sim who wishes to be a Hall of Famer, this is also the first time I have played him to any degree. He's lazy and playful and when left to his own devices can always be found playing a game.

Chaz ran out to talk to fellow student Jenna. He worked his charm upon her and found that they have 3 bolts of attraction!

He asked her on a date straight away and they went Downtown to Red's Diner where Jenna showed off her dance moves.

They fell in love over dinner,

and the date ended very well indeed.

Obviously I control the other Students enough to get grades, skills and catch up with friends. It's very handy them all having mobile phones.

Marla loves to Tinker and has enjoyed making and gifting a variety of robots to her fellow students, as well as keeping some for herself of course.

There was a moment when the students were all seriously studying but then a fire broke out and distracted them. Luckily the sprinkler system kicked in and everyone was saved. 

This Dorm cook is the worst as there is a fire almost every day, he clearly has limited cooking skills. :D

Marla and Tom fell in love autonomously during Emily Lee's round. They had zero attraction so they drank their ReNuYu vial's and went from zero to two. Pretty good. Fortune Sim Tom wants to have 6 pets reach the top of their careers while Knowledge lover Marla wants to become a World Famous Ballet Dancer one day. :D

Their new found attraction garnered all kinds of new wishes. ;)

Knowledge Sim Emily hasn't rolled any wishes other than to skill and here she is maxing her Creativity. She wants to be a Game Designer someday.

Phineaus and Ellen also fell in love and again had zero attraction for each other, so they drank their vials too.

They went from 0 to 3 bolts and immediately got engaged! The Family (Phineaus) and Fortune (Ellen) may have played a part in the attractiveness too.

They had a fun night. :)

Marla is always the first to finish her term paper.

Phineaus can now create a masterpiece. He wishes to raise 20 kittens or puppies so he'll be needing as much cash as possible as he won't have time to get a job. Luckily Ellen wants to reach the top of the Entertainment career so they will have funds coming in.

Ellen maxed Creativity on the synthesizer.

Marla is the first to Graduate, she spent the final semester getting fit in preparation for her potential career in Dance and finished college with a 4.0 in Biology, a Silver badge in Robotics as well as being in the Zone in Tinkering.

She threw herself  a party.

Then grew up and left for Pleasantview.

Tom Freshe followed quickly after, he graduated with a 4.0 in Economics and his taxi took him to join Marla at their new home.

Ellen Frost was next, she earned a 4.0 in Economics too.

then it was Phineaus Furley's turn. (I'm regretting having added the 'Castle' collection to the 'hood now) :D 

Phineaus got a 4.0 in Political Science and joined Ellen at their new home.

Emily left after Phineaus, she earned herself a 4.0 in History.

Then finally Chaz graduated with a 4.0 in Literature. I could have thrown him a party but by this stage I wanted college to be done with for them all.

Summary- A longish time playing 3 semesters but enjoyable and they all seemed to set their own paths in Romance with the exception of Emily so far.

Up next is a change of neighbourhood to Veronaville and the newly graduated William Williamson who again I'll be playing properly for the first time.
