For the second of 4 updates we have moved over to college in Veronaville where we find the home of single student Francis J Worthington III.
Here is Francis in his home, and I just spotted a strip of missing wallpaper. :D
Francis is a Fortune sim who wishes to be a Business Tycoon someday.
Francis engaged with fellow students, this one must have come fresh from a graduation party.
He made himself a plate of sandwiches.
Had no idea how to talk to girls....
and after his first class spent a lonely evening with his mac n cheese.
The next day he ventured onto campus to the gym where he started to befriend some of the other students.
He even learnt the student cheer.
He made friends with Romeo Monty who I'm sure can teach Francis a thing or two about talking to girls... :)
That second night Francis was handcuffed and whisked away in a limousine.
To the LFT secret society, home of the silly handshake and lots of new potential friends.
For someone who was supposedly a 'loner' Francis had made 7 friends by the end of his visit and was hoping soon to be Big Man on Campus.
He needed to work on a creativity skill but the hydroponic planter needed harvesting- the previous user had created a lovely plant which Francis backpacked. He sowed new seeds for the next time he comes though.
Before he knew it the first semester was over. Francis of course got on the Dean's list and scored a perfect 4.0 GPA
Even though his body skill is rising I'm not sure that floating on his back is quite 'earning a skill'. :D
After class that day Francis decided to try out the new House of Blues community lot downtown.
It's a bar, restaurant and live music venue.
I didn't ask him to cut off his own hand, just scope the room! Keen much? :D
He didn't find anyone particularly attractive and settled down for a nice salmon dinner.
He did at least make a friend of Gunnar Roque.
Being inspired by his visit to a restaurant Francis later tried cooking something fancy but disaster struck.
Thankfully he kept his cool long enough to put out the flames.
The next day he woke up with a wish to join a Greek house. He made the call and the members ran over.
Francis befriended them all and was quickly accepted into the house.
and so he left! He's still in his second semester but we'll soon see him again. Next in fact when I play Guy Wrightley!
Summary-
Last time (before the laptop crash) I had Guy make Francis pledge and it was fun ordering him about but this time I decided to just send him to the house (and he did wish to join) as college is so much more fun (to me) when there's a bunch of sims in a dorm/house.


























The missing strip of wallpaper - I‘ll have to look for that when I‘m home from my Yorkshire holiday!
ReplyDeleteThe conversation with Romeo made me laugh 😄
Great to see updates from you! It‘s been a while; you have probably been busy with summerly things such as gardening.
Let me know as I'm sure Francis wasn't in the house long enough for me to even think about decorating!
DeleteRomeo must have some great tips eh?!
Thanks it's been a busy month, gardening, family things, general summer long nights where you don't want to be indoors and we took a road trip up to Loch Ness in Scotland- 500 odd miles from where we live and it was amazing, the Highlands are beautiful as are the Lochs...and we had such good weather- it doesn't feel like we've had rain since April. :D
It's a shame we didn't time our trips, we could've diverted to Yorkshire to meet you on our way home! Enjoy the rest of your holiday, it looks like you are having a lovely time.
I've played the last 2 houses and will blog them shortly, (also saved the game though not had any issues or crashes) So I'm looking forward to starting round 2.
