I thought Sim-Celt was laughing in your face in Dei's game? Weird methods of seduction she's using.
She liked him a lot more after he was dead.

I don't actually know if Sim-Celt would get jealous though, since you aren't in a relationship, you just randomly come over and woohoo at 2am.

Like Dei said, all I had to do was literally die to get you to notice me :p Now you come over at odd hours to use me to satisfy your base desires, and occasionally clean the place up (because your Neat trait makes you see cleaning as a source of fun). ;)

I've definitely noticed that sims get jealous of their romantic interests flirting with other sims, even if they aren't officially in a relationship.
 
A reliable source told me that you can unlock an achievement if your Sim has 100 babies. Will this happen in this game?

And even if you did, nobody can get pregnant in a full household. I'd have to split you guys up into more houses for you to have babies.
 
Aaaaaannnnd I'm dead, I blame the hot tub.
I'm honestly surprised more people haven't died falling asleep in the hot tub.

My Sim is living a far more interesting life than me.

The cleaning sounds right, tho'.
 
I just realized that bringing your partner back from the dead pretty gives them unlimited leverage in a relationship. "Can't I just take the garbage out in the morning?" "Do you think me pleading with the GRIM REAPER HIMSELF FOR YOUR LIFE could have waited until morning?" *sigh* "Be right back."

Monday, 2nd of Winter, Year 2 - Household 2

Household 2 fixed - Dirona Patrthom Squidley MikeRC Emrys Adam and Pudding.jpg


She's a one-woman wrecking crew.

Well, whoever had bet on Patrthom next in the pool, collect your winnings.

Emrys makes an offering at Pudding's urn, to try to remind him where home is.
04-09-19_7-42-15 PM.png


The jukebox is on the fritz. With Patrthom gone, it falls to HCGLNS to fix it.
04-09-19_7-44-02 PM.png


Dirona was Patrthom's closest friend in the household, so she makes the appeal to ground his spirit in the material world.
04-09-19_7-44-15 PM.png


Some kind of bug has struck Adam where the game thinks he's at work when he's still at home. I hope this fixes itself.
04-09-19_7-45-30 PM.png


Squidley misses her cat.
04-09-19_7-48-41 PM.png


MikeRC finally manages to get enough trolling in to advance his mischievous aspirations. Next on the list is pranks - lots of pranks.
04-09-19_7-50-49 PM.png


HCGLNS manifests a pair of roller skates and gives it a whirl. He's pretty good for never having done this before.


In a single visit to the restroom, Dirona manages to break both the toilet AND the sink.
04-09-19_7-52-48 PM.png


She pretends nothing happens, and plays some vidya with Adam.
04-09-19_7-53-55 PM.png


Painting usually cheers Squidley up... she's going to be doing a lot of that today, I think.
04-09-19_7-54-06 PM.png


Scruffy, think of this as an opportunity to excel.
04-09-19_7-55-28 PM.png


Adam gets enough charm practice in to get what he needs for a promotion. Hopefully.

Adam helps clean up the aftermath of whatever happened in the bathroom.
04-09-19_8-05-37 PM.png


And he continues to act as Squidley's "manager" for her artwork, selling the fruits of her labors to collectors. Not only does she achieve the next level of her aspiration, but she's actually starting to get a little famous.
04-09-19_8-10-41 PM.png


Her burgeoning fame will make it easier for her to network with other famous people.

That's kinda sweet.
04-09-19_8-17-37 PM.png


HCGLNS, however, does not approve of Dirona and MikeRC's public displays of affection.
04-09-19_8-18-18 PM.png


Dirona's been cooking to get her fourth level 4 skill. In the process, she breaks the refrigerator.
04-09-19_8-20-01 PM.png


Sara has a cookout by herself at the nearby park, and doesn't look particularly like she's enjoying it.
04-09-19_8-21-19 PM.png


Adam, despite not actually going to work today, "gets home" from work with a promotion to managerial assistant.
04-09-19_8-21-42 PM.png


I think Dirona's been distracted during this cooking binge. Uh.. Dirona... maybe take another look at the oven there...?
04-09-19_8-22-13 PM.png


Squidley saves the day, if not the oven.


Well, everybody's safe, at least.
04-09-19_8-24-03 PM.png


HCGLNS and Adam get to work to set the kitchen to rights.
04-09-19_8-24-46 PM.png


Her quick thinking in the emergency has instilled confidence in Squidley, and she puts that on canvas.
04-09-19_8-25-55 PM.png


HCGLNS, on the other hand, takes a well deserved nap.
04-09-19_8-27-59 PM.png


Dirona finally manages to get cooking to 4. Now she needs to get to level 3 in any career. Just because nobody's taken it yet, I opt for her to get into gardening.

It's a little cold to actually plant anything, but she can maybe do a little flower arranging?
04-09-19_8-37-25 PM.png


Emrys see, Emrys do.
04-09-19_8-38-02 PM.png


"Oh look, perfectly good hot dogs!" -Jwhouk
04-09-19_8-39-55 PM.png


Bhamv, having heard of her friend's rising fame, drops by to visit Squidley.
04-09-19_8-40-31 PM.png


They gossip for a bit about the neighbors.
04-09-19_8-42-44 PM.png


Dirona decides to soak the stress of the fire away in the sauna.
04-09-19_8-43-27 PM.png


MikeRC joins her... and things get a little steamier even.
04-09-19_8-46-49 PM.png


They turn in early.
04-09-19_8-49-11 PM.png


Emrys doesn't get on with strangers, and Bhamv's presence makes her on edge.
04-09-19_8-47-39 PM.png


The next step of Adam's career requires logic, so he takes up chess.
04-09-19_8-52-09 PM.png


He and Squidley are the only ones up this late...
04-09-19_8-54-43 PM.png


Suddenly, a nearby guitar starts floating off the ground, spooking them.


Surprise! It's a puddy tat.
04-09-19_8-57-10 PM.png


Welcome back to the household, kitty.
04-09-19_8-57-49 PM.png


Man, she might be a bit of a walking disaster, but everybody digs Dirona's cookies. They're made with love.
04-09-19_9-00-55 PM.png


... and also FOR love.
