Consort Capp- Round 2

 
Here I am back in Veronaville, a little over 2 years to the date since I was last here at Capp Manor.

Upon opening the lot I found Hermia all burnt from whatever fate befell her over the course of the round, most likely struck by lightning sometime. 

Her sister Juliette is here of course- just leaving for her shift at the fast food restaurant.

They live in the Manor with their Grandfather Consort who raised them after their parents died along with their older brother Tybalt who is currently in college.

Consort dated Sunny Kody last round and this time invited her over to declare his love...

Well when you're Consorts' age you can't afford to hang around!

Hermia and Juliette are just out of shot and a bolt of lightning shot through the sky at the moment I snapped their wedding picture which also lit up Cleopatra the ghost. :D

Cleopatra had her own way of welcoming Sunny to the family!

Finally though the oldies got some time to themselves. ;) 
What a busy first day (Saturday in this house).

In the early hours of Sunday Juliette bagged some scholarships and left for Uni, waved off by her sister Hermia.

She's joined the dorm with her brother Tybalt, cousins Miranda and Hal and The Monty brothers.

As she was up early Hermia served breakfast and got to know Sunny.

Consort gave Hermia a gift for her backpack. I forget what it was. :D

Sunny has a LTW to be a Hall of Famer but has no Aspiration, which is strange. She found a job in Athletics.

Consort spent time while his new wife was at work chatting to his family members.

After work Sunny didn't quite make it to the house before a ghost scared her causing her to have a little accident.

In the early hours of Monday it was Hermia's turn to head to Uni. That's a proud Grandpa waving her off and I'm ignoring the ghost that has suddenly appeared in the house. :)

Hermia has joined a different place in Uni as her sisters' dorm was full (the Newson siblings are the 7th & 8th members of that dorm).

Meanwhile it was odd for Sunny to have no aspiration so as soon as she could she used the reward that assigned her Popularity. Her LTW didn't change.

Business Tycoon Consort always travels to work in style.

While he was gone Sunny realised her dream of hiring a Butler. "Colin Love at your service Ma'am".

A quick look through the dresser showed Sunny that there were no appropriate clothes for her.

She visited H&M Veronaville where she bought clothes and a phone as well as meeting some new neighbours.

Happy with her new choice of clothes Sunny spent the rest of the day doing chores.

Consort arrived home having earned 25K in total.

He'd just been tending to some shrubbery when Grimmy & The Hula's showed up.

Poor Sunny widowed after just two days of marriage.

Consort came good in the end and you can see how his relationships with his family had much improved since last time. He was 65 days old and as you see left monetary memories with at least 16 people. 

All alone now in this big Manor house (if you don't count the ghosts) Sunny threw herself into skilling for her job.

A good choice on a chance card gave her some free skills.

Her colleagues and passing neighbours rallied around to keep her company and she managed a promotion to Minor Leaguer on Tuesday.

On Wednesday after an uneventful day Consort's ghost came out and scared her.

Followed later by Anthony....

and Calpurnia! 

On Thursday after a double shift Sunny is a Starter. She had to sweep roaches but as the trash is standing I'm not sure where they came from.

On Friday Sunny is promoted to All Star. She earned the career reward and has bagged 10K. She turned around and greeted Jessie Pilferson (in the background) and they had a nice chat.

On Saturday Sunny talked with Colin Love some more.

She was invited Downtown and enjoyed some fun at the Sugar Cube Bowl. A quick scope saw her quite liking this chap...

But who is he?

Even once home she couldn't quite place him!

Summary-

I have no idea who that was... :D 
I'll have to check next time-so many Sims were struck by lightning from hot tubs over the course of the round it's hard to keep track.
Poor Sunny wasn't married to Consort for long but a little happiness in life is surely better than none at all.
I wonder if Tybalt, Juliette or Hermia will be back one day to reclaim Capp Manor?
The ghosts were out every night... the family tree is quite fun to check out- Anthony and Cleopatra were Contessa's maternal Grandparents (Contessa was Consort's first wife and was an original Capp- Consort took her name). 

Next up it's Cornwall Capp's round and then it will be Hermia in Uni (I will play Hal when I play Juliette as they are in the same dorm and Hal already had a full round before he joined Uni).

  1. What better way to start a week than with a wedding! At least Consort found happiness a second time, and newly widowed Sunny is probably not going to stay on her own forever.
    The manor is hard to play when Sims have to catch car pools and school buses, isn't it, with the loooong way from the front door to the road.
    I am looking forward to seeing the young ones at college!

    1. I think you're right about Sunny, she seems keen to 'move on'!
      The Manor is a nightmare really to play with the super long drive and with all the plants and shrubs as well- Colin Love certainly earns his wage every day. :D
      I still have a soft spot for it though and it's a great home for anyone who wants to see a ghost!
      You won't have to wait too long, I've played a fair bit this last couple of weeks but am away this coming weekend, I'll hopefully have one more update before then.
