Ty Bubbler- 1st round after Graduation

 
Strangetown's University S.S.U is our next destination for Ty Bubbler. He is on the lawn of the Fraternity house working on his body skill.

After a quick shower Ty's college journey is about to come to an end- but not before throwing a Graduation party!

He invited the guys who came before him as well as the girls from the Sorority (old and new) and a few other friends. Castor Nova is busy learning Physiology but he'll soon join the party.

Castor was flirting with his girlfriend (possibly fiancée) Allegra Gorey when Brittany Upsnott got very mad.

She really did give poor Castor a heavy slap. Allegra didn't interfere but is obviously thinking about it.
Brittany must have held a bit of a torch for Castor.

Someone served up some Grilled cheese sandwiches and everyone was soon distracted by the food which gave Ty a chance to catch up with his buddies.

The newest member of the Frat, Jared Starchild is Ty's best buddy and happily poses for the graduation picture. I love Castor cheering on in the backgroud. Congrats Ty and welcome to adulthood!

Last time I put Ty in an apartment but they just stress me out so here he is at his new little house in Strangetown.

He had a backpack full of essentials and a few goodies. I've just noticed one of the dining chairs is facing the wrong way. ;)

Upstairs he has a nice shower room and a large but basic bedroom. Ty is a Popularity Sim who wishes to become a General. Although he had a conquest (or two) in college he is yet to meet someone special and for now will concentrate on settling in.

Oh dear... while he may match his home decor I don't think this is quite Ty. 

off to Strangetown's H&M he goes.

He met a few new people and got a nice new outfit- sticking to the blue that he 'grew up' in. 

He was invited out that night by Sam Phoenix and a whole group of familiar faces. Bella Goth the townie showed up too!

It was a fun night for Ty and his group.

hmm, do Housekeeper's normally show up to outings?

It's good to see Bella expanding her group of playable contacts too.

On Tuesday (Monday was a long day) Ty didn't find the Military but did find a nice job in Paranormal- he might as well put his degree to good use!

Of course he's working unsociable hours but he enjoyed his first shift as a Police Psychic.

On Wednesday he had a wish to win a cooking competition. He offered a berry pie while Loki Beaker matched the resident Chef's Baked Alaska and maid Xavier Hurt cooked up some spaghetti.

Ty was surprised and thrilled to win the Judge's approval, and rosette for first place!

While he was enjoying his slice of pie something was happening in the competition area...

I guess Loki really is a sore loser... not only did he lose the competition but he lost the fight against Xavier as well!

On Thursday Ty met a townie and talked for a while before work.

Ty doesn't even have to think about the choice and immediately chooses to save the child,

Of course it was the right decision for Ty which also netted him a nice bonus and promotion.

He happily paid his bills that day.

He'd also had a new wrap around fence installed- any digging in this garden is going to be done by Ty, not stray dogs!

On Friday Ty got promoted to Exorcist and brought Jane Stacks home with him,

He invited Kelly Fuchs over- the housekeeper he'd met at his outing. Sadly though there was no option for her to leave.

Even when Ty left in the early hours to go to work Kelly had taken up residence in his bed (purely platonically). So I had no choice once she was awake to move_objects and delete her. (She'd kept getting 'stuck' on his sofas and chairs).  Note to self- leave Housekeepers well alone. If they'd have had 3 bolts I probably would have moved her in but they didn't.

Ty got a bad chance card which demoted him. He's got the weekend off now so called up Sam.

He also worked on some skills,

and made 10 best friends.

What better way to celebrate than to have an afternoon/evening with his friends down at the Diner.

Sunday morning was spent catching up with jobs around the house and skills before Ty met Johnny Smith.

Then Ty decided to throw a house party for all his friends. You can see I didn't notice the dining chair out of place (until I saw the pics)!

Everyone stayed until poor Ty was almost asleep on his feet.

As he crawled into bed that night Ty can be very happy with his week.

Summary.

Must remember to look for Military again! It's too easy sometimes to be caught up in a different career but Ty has plenty of time for his LTW.

Candice Bruenig- Sophomore Year

 
Back at La Fiesta Tech college in a suburb of Veronaville for the turn of Candice Bruenig- the only girl in the Fraternity House.  She and Matthew Hart are good friends. Candice is a Family Sim who is wishing her life away to her Golden Anniversary some day. 

Francis J Worthington III joined the house just as we went into Guy Wrightley's senior year. A Fortune sim with his sights set on the Business world.

Wannabe Lothario Mickey Dosser is in his final Semester of college. His grade is sitting at 3.4 which is good considering his start in college. His LTW seems to have changed to become a Rock God but that doesn't stop him working his way through some college girls.

Matthew Hart has just started his final year of college. He loves to cook for the household. This Family Sim wishes to be a Chef one day.

The last member is Shaun Lawson, a pledge who joined last time. He is enjoying the fruits (and veg) of Mickey Dosser's nature labours. Shaun is a Family Sim who wishes to graduate 3 kids from college!

The Frat house is always full of guests. Romeo Monty and Gavin Newson are here along with a friend they brought from their dorm.

Kay Lam (who recently joined the Sorority House) and Shaun have 3 bolts of attraction- let's see if they can stay the course. 

Poor Mickey is being put through his paces by his long suffering campus coach.. "You're a pizza loving slacker Dosser! 50 star jumps, right now!".

Candice fell in love with Marcel (extremely long surname) and 3 bolt love and wanted to get engaged this time. She did then spent the rest of the time dancing with Gavin Newson.

Turns out Gavin was poorly- he must've caught the same bug that Romeo Monty got last time.

Candice soon cured him with a bowl of her hearty vegetable soup.

Francis J has influencing down to a T and his latest pledge Cooper Lee soon helped Francis finish that term's paper.

Francis asked Cooper to move in just after that as his pledge period ended. It will be nice not to see him in Graduation robes all the time!

Romance Sim Cooper is looking to have woohoo with 20 Sims, looks like his college life will be colourful. ;)

As Candice completed her half semester Mickey graduated! 3.5 GPA- he'll stay in college until his turn on the list.

Shaun has pretty good skills and he loves to sew. He likes making outfits and curtains.

Cooper joined the other Frat members by being inducted into the Secret Society- His welcome was a little stilted as the other members were all cowering from a hailstorm.

These two members autonomously fell in love. Maybe eventually they will join the other playables.

One of the first things Mickey wished to do was learn Lifelong Happiness.

Matthew got the Llama mascot to help him with his term paper.

Francis J talked with Candice about life after college. 

Then spent some time dancing the smustle with Matthew while Cooper played games.

Meanwhile Mickey was once again being yelled at by the campus coach!

It's not as if he doesn't get any exercise! ;)

Matthew and Cooper finished their half semesters.

The boys enjoyed some pork chops for a change.

Meanwhile Mickey was working on some gentle yoga.

The upstairs was very hot and poor Shaun was the second (after Mickey) to actually pass out from the heat.

Thankfully Cooper was walking by and doused Shaun in water.

Yes! Mickey finally went into a normal weight range. Where's the campus coach now eh?

Matthew learnt all about Parenting.

It was Candice's turn to overheat but thankfully she didn't pass out.

Mickey's time at college is almost over but not before his pal Shaun gave him a gift- is it curtains or an outfit? Time will tell. ;)

Candice used a pledge to do her term paper too- it's almost time for her final exam.

Looks like Mickey had finally listened to the coach and made a healthy super salad instead of bringing home pizza.

Seemed like everyone enjoyed eating healthily now and again.

Candice returned from her exam and has finished her Sophomore year with a top grade. 

Summary-

Candice really isn't a very exciting Sim to play but in this house there is never a dull moment. Rarely she actually has 3 bolts with a lot of Sims so maybe I was hasty with the engagement but we'll see how the round plays out.
Mickey will leave during his round and Matthew will Graduate also. 
I have lots of pledges but am holding off having them join the house so other playables can during their turns if they wish.
