We are back in Pleasantview's Académie Le Tour to visit the Sharpe house once more this round.
Edwin was just enjoying a nice game of chess when the Campus Coach came and told him to start working out- immediately!
Edwin's roommate Jonah Powers thought he'd be safe up in the loft space on his drum kit but no, the Coach found him too.
Once the Coach had left Edwin (who dislikes physical activity) stopped working out and went outside to greet a suited member of the Campus.
But then the Coach came back! Poor Edwin was made to do a ton of sit ups.
Once again the Coach left and Edwin had got down to some skilling when his crush Delilah O'Feefe turned up so he ran outside to greet her.
This head down, sulky face is how much Jonah enjoys going to class... NOT!
Edwin and Delilah happily shared their first kiss.
Later that evening Edwin settled into a game of chess with Jonah while Edwin's sister Roxie (who completes the household) does some Yoga. She loves fitness and so far has escaped the Campus Coach's wrath.
The next morning Roxie tried to hug her Professor but he wasn't have any of that nonsense.
So she resorted to charm/bribery, which worked a treat!
A step too far though when she asked him inside and flirted with him in front of her on/off boyfriend Jonah. Oops.
Jonah was still mad later over supper when he ignored Roxie and just talked to Edwin.
The limousine pulled up a little after 11pm that night...
and Edwin was greeted by the college version of Demi Love.
It didn't take him long to make enough friends to be Big Man on Campus and he even made a best friend.
He was back home in time to finish the first semester with a 4.0 GPA, same as Roxie. Jonah managed a fairly decent 3.6
They went Downtown to the Crypt O'Nightclub where Edwin worked on some fun and body skills (he did lose his belly) while Jonah scoped around and talked to lots of females.
Which worked pretty well until he flirted with the resident Countess and not only got a slap from Roxie (pot-kettle?) but they also became enemies.
Jonah disappeared to the loft when they got back while the siblings worked on a skill each for college.
Edwin of course is a Knowledge sim who wishes to become a Mad Scientist, Roxie is a Romance Sim who wants to be a Rock God while Jonah (also Romance) wishes to be a Celebrity Chef.
Edwin was kind enough to swap rooms with Roxie, she and Jonah had shared a room but not a bed and now she just needed space from him. Which was moot really as Jonah had used some of the household funds to extend the loft space into his own bedroom complete with double bed.
Sometimes the camera pans to the latest action and it was one of the college Cheerleaders fighting with one of the Cow Mascots. The Cheerleader won, naturally.
A different Cheerleader and a Streaker then appeared and the latter gave Jonah quite a shock!
It didn't take long for Jonah to charm the Cheerleader Catalina into his bed.
She enjoyed using the career reward to gain a Creativity skill and even seemed to enjoy the buzz it kept giving her.
Once back home her and Jonah lost their enemy status and while they may never be in a romantic relationship they may just become friends again.
They have so little space/tables that the desk serves as the base for their late night pizza.
Jonah was still keeping close to the Countess and when he was up in the middle of the night she happily came over for a chat.
The next day Roxie invited her good friends Alexander Goth and his fiancée Chris Cwik over.
Having recently bought a Makeover station she offered to give Chris a new look,
A new hairstyle and a bit of make up made Chris a happy first client.
The next day the Streaker and cheerleader were back and no prizes for guessing what the topic of Jonah's conversation was. :D
There was no kissing in the end though as the Streaker decided to play the drums instead.
Edwin was studiously working his skills and while Jonah worked on his cooking skills Edwin maxed the logic skill.
Perhaps not what a romance Sim wants is to have someone get too serious with him but that's what happened to Jonah. Luckily he escaped to his final exam where he finished his Junior Year with a B- and 3.4 GPA, his grade actually going down no doubt due to his lack of interest in anything but girls.
But the Sharpe Siblings both got A+ and 4.0 GPA's this year, Roxie will be a Senior like Jonah next time while her baby brother Edwin will start his Junior Year.
Summary-
Another fun college round where the story pretty much wrote itself, a most entertaining household. Edwin is pretty serious about Delilah, Roxie has no interest in anyone in particular and Jonah has so many options it's hard to keep track. :)
A fun round to read, too! They all stay well in character, don't they. Only Edwin would have his first kiss while still wearing his thinking cap :-D
ReplyDeleteAnd only Jonah would invite the streaker in, and the girl then playing the drums wearing only her birthday suit :-D
Roxie and the Professor was a funny scene, too. Here she was in her skimpy night dress, but the Professor knew better than to allow her to hug him.
I wonder whether Jonah will turn into a Vampire next time we meet him (which is going to be a while, I know).
Yes they really are all very much like their personalities, except I think Roxie is also quite bookish, and nothing wrong with that :)
DeleteI haven't had a single person autonomously turned by the Vampire this whole round, I'm sure in my last Megahood it happened often. Maybe one of his housemates can influence the Countess, haha. :)
