Etsu Cho

 

Just as I thought I'd be in Veronaville forever I only just remembered little Etsu Cho! She is the daughter of Vivian of course only Vivian is now Riley having married Timothy during his turn.

The family (including Timothy's teen daughter Sally) moved here to Audrey Manor to start a new life.

They have a Penthouse apartment- with a large lounge area and kitchen as well as a twin room for the girls- just at the bottom of the picture is a mysterious bookcase which houses a small hidden room.

Upstairs is the master bedroom and ensuite as well as a large outdoor area suitable for telescope and career rewards. Not that Timothy has a career yet- he spent all last round looking for Medicine and is yet to find it. Vivian however is working her way up the Law Enforcement field while Sally has a teen job so there is money coming in.

Timothy sneaks into the mysterious room (which just houses a computer) and once again he has no luck finding his career.

Etsu and Vivian enjoy a game of red hands this Monday evening. (I moved the family last round so played the best part of the one day back then).

Like most teenagers Sally spends her life on the phone. But she is a Popularity Sim, although she wants to max her skills. :D

While her Dad works on another skill Sally brought a friend home.

as did Etsu- her friend Yvette Stratton is her guest today.

Sally's teen job in Athletics paid off when she reached top of the career later that day.

oopsie, I keep forgetting birthdays!

Here's Etsu- she's a cutie. She rolled Pleasure so I'm sure she will be able to make up for the lack of a birthday party with other fun pursuits.

Oddly I didn't write Etsu's LTW down but I am assuming it will be to have lots of dates (judging from my photos). :D

Sally then decided to leave for college where she was waved off by her family and we will see her later in the alphabet.

Although he's a knowledge sim Timothy has been wishing for a baby again ever since he and Vivian got married.

It seems his wish will come true. ;)

Vivian was up early to go to work on Wednesday. She has been Police Chief for a while and still needs a few skills to reach the top.

Timothy finally found the Medical career! He starts as a G.P

Etsu went to the Corner Shoppes where she had her first date with Shea Kalson. She just let it get to 'good' before ending the date.

After he left Ryan Shankel was happy to be her second date.

She found herself a new outfit.

While Timothy was promoted to Specialist I once again forgot an important birthday... looking good Vivian!

Timothy was too busy with his head in the toilet to notice... :D

He showered into his Maternity wear and he and Etsu caught up on their daily phone calls to friends.

After school on Thursday Etsu went back to the Corner Shoppes but was rejected for a date by Pierce Walter.

However Amar Huffman was happy to be date number 3.

Etsu came home in a great mood, left for work and came home top of her teen career. 

on Friday while her Mum cooked up pancakes Etsu learned a few skills watching the cooking channel.

overnight Amar had left her a little date gift.

Vivian was happy to see Timothy realising a wish now that she was too old to give him children.

Another afternoon and another rejection from Pierce.

Simon Brown was sadly just leaving but at least he and Etsu are acquaintances now.

In the early hours of Saturday little Stevie arrived! She has her dad's brown hair and nose, but alien eyes and lips.

Etsu was happy to cuddle the new baby while her step dad caught up on breakfast.

She later went to the Sim bowl lanes where she had her 4th date with Larry Jalowitz.

Her Mum however had a difficult decision to make at work....

oh dear... the 36K that was in the family bank account disappeared down to nothing after this shot. No one is working until Monday now although Vivian did earn her wages later that day.

Larry dropped off a little plant for Etsu.

When she awoke on Sunday Etsu went to the Archimedes Arcade where she found Simon Brown who readily accepted the offer to be her 5th date.

She finished her day off at the Central Park where, finally, Pierce Walter said yes to a date!

Finishing our week off back at home is little Stevie, who celebrated her toddler birthday.

Summary-

Well it was an interesting week for Etsu, her step sister left for college almost immediately and she spent most of the rest of the week chasing dates. 

Timothy finally found his job where he got just the one promotion but has thrown himself into parenthood once again.

 

Poor Vivian losing all the family funds! Hopefully between them all they can soon recoup. 

I'll be going back to Veronaville next for Darren Chung's turn... a Uni student that was added to the Greek house last time.

Juliette Capp- Freshman Year

 

Here we are still in Veronaville at La Fiesta Tech for Juliette's first year of college. She is talking with her teenage crush Romeo Monty and friend Ginger Newson.

After a spot of lunch she went off to class leaving her cousin Miranda making a best friend of Ginger's brother Gavin.

Miranda's brother Hal is also starting his Freshman year.

The remaining two dormies are Romeo's brother Mercutio and Juliette's older brother Tybalt who amazingly she is best friends with all of a sudden. They must have enjoyed some phone chats during the last round.

Of course in true Monty and Capp style Tybalt still hates the brothers'. He's just kicked Mercutio's butt once more- that's 4-0 now to Tybalt.

Even before Mercutio could finish wiping away his tears Romeo arrived back from class and was immediately attacked by Tybalt.

That's Tybalt 5- Romeo 0

Mercutio then ran over and launched himself at Tybalt!

Now it's Tybalt 5- Mercutio 0

Romeo has finally figured out that to be in with a chance he must improve his body skill! He already has pretty good body skills but he wants to max out to be in with a chance against Tybalt's next and inevitable attack.

Meanwhile Juliette is abducted into the secret society.

She stayed until she'd befriended enough members to become Big Woman on Campus and gain a few skills.

During her stay two random members (Don Straight and Lilly Thomason) threw some pink hearts at each other.

The next day Ginger was one of the first to finish her term paper.

Romeo maxed his Body skill- Watch out Tybalt!

Miranda and Hal also completed their term papers.

Just in time as final exams were here. Gavin was the first to finish the semester followed over the course of the day by everyone else.

Family sim Juliette is still looking for that special someone and talks to everyone she meets.

She splashed some of her grant money on a date.

She got Zeeshan from Twikkii Island and while she fancied dinner with him you can see where her heart truly lies. 

She invited Zeeshan in for some dorm food but Tybalt was once again attacking Mercutio.

6-0 now I think to Tybalt.

Juliette's date wasn't so great when she can't stop swooning over Romeo.

It's all a bit tricky as Romeo has 3 bolts for Ratna Pai here, and one other college girl too. :D

Miranda has made a best friend. She is also a Romance sim and while her and Mercutio quite like each other (2 bolts) neither one has made any moves this time.

Gavin and Tybalt complete their term papers.

Hal joined the secret society and is a Big Man on Campus.

oh dear, you turn your back for a second and Romeo & Juliette are making out on the couch.

I  hope the newest Secret Society member Tybalt isn't telling tales to Ratna about that!

The next morning I found Tybalt and Mercutio sitting at the same table! Hmm maybe Tybalt is ready to grow up a bit and build some bridges.

It's the end of the year so we'll have to wait until next time to find out!

Summary-

As Juliette, Tybalt, Hal and Miranda Capp are all here I decided to play them all as one this time. I will be back here though for the Monty brothers and Newson's turns so we will see them all again at least twice more this round. 

Currently Juliette and Hal have just finished their Freshman Year while the others have all completed Sophomore.

Romeo is the only one this round to have not made the Secret Society. It does seem that he and Juliette are destined to be together, but time will tell. :)
