La Fiesta Tech, Week 4, Part 2

It's time to check in on the LFT fraternity, this round inhabited by three young men.

The blond one is George McCarthy, a former store clerk with an interest in making money, who's slated to marry Nicholette Nettles. He's a Capricorn, very shy and serious, and wants to be a doctor.

The redhead is Alon Livingston, former paperboy. He dated Keren Black as a teenager, but since coming to uni he's fallen for Shayelle Cooper, and she for him. His aspiration is knowledge, his sign Pisces, and he has not a single neat point to his name. That relationship should be interesting - she's obsessively neat. Shay also wants to be a cop, while Alon's LTW is to be a criminal mastermind...

And last but certainly not least, there's Julius Bonaccord, son of Remus and his wife Laura. Julius is a plesure seeker who wants 50 first dates, and managed six or so as a teenager. I wasn't even going to try that one, planning to reroll him in uni instead, but... Well, he's somehow become a favorite of mine, and I figured why not?

And so Alon and George got to take a backseat, while this woman moved to the forefront.

He wasn't going to pay anything above the minimum fee, so Julius got a lot of dates like this. Nannies, professors, elderly downtownies, knowledge sims, family sims...

But occasionally he manages to pull off a date good enough to get him a love letter.

The vampire liked him enough to actually develop a crush on him.

"Haha, that's a good one, Julius! I haven't seen the sun in centuries!"

He needed to keep his aspiration up somehow, so he did fall in love with one fellow student - a romance sim - and racked up a number of dream dates with her. Until she caught him on a blind date with someone else when she was coming by to drop off roses.

So he hooked up with Penelope Antonius instead.

Oh yeah, George bought a business. He hasn't quite decided what he's going to sell there, yet, so Julius uses it for privacy when he's dating.

The cow mascot wouldn't agree to a date, so Julius simply invited her over. She asked to bring a friend, and he agreed, hoping to meet someone else he could date. Instead, she brought Face Black.

When Face told her about being abducted by aliens, she tried to strangle him. I suspect there may be a long-standing feud between cows and aliens...

Yes! I did it! 50 first dates - accomplished!

Now he wants 50 dream dates...

Oh well, Lily Forsythe wants 20 lovers anyway, why not make Julius one of them? Between her and Penelope, 50 dream dates were easily accomplished - and as a bonus brought the business up to level 2, when it's never even been open.

Because Julius took up so much of my time, George and Alon pretty much had to settle for schoolwork, skilling, and earning badges. Both of them came with several skills maxed already.

Originally I only had the toy and robot benches in this house, but later on added flower arranging and the makeover chair as well. No discrimination around here!


All three maintained 4.0s, and joined the secret society. (Obviously they were already Greek House members.) Julius also pulled off his IW, before rerolling to popularity.

"Goooo makeover!"

Nice work with all the dating - businesses do make it so much easier don't they?

And well done with all the badges... it's going to be a big headstart in the business if/when George uses it.

50 first dates, then 50 dream dates, all in one week? Argh! I'm exhausted just thinking about it.

Unknown said...

Me, too, Kerry. And impressed. I just accomplished the 50 1st dates for the first time on Sunday. She did go to Uni, but I didn't get it done until she was half way through her adulthood. I originally planned to ignore her LTW then decided I need to branch out and do things I wouldn't normally do (tada! I get the point of a challenge ... *g)

Congrats! I need to work on badges more. Still haven't gotten used to that one.

It wasn't actually one week, it was two years of college - almost two weeks. ;) Still, being able to go to a community where time doesn't pass while you're gone makes all the difference!

Just call the matchmaker, pay the least amount possible for a date, say hello, tell a joke, chat, and end the date - that way I got mostly "okay" dates, and they took next to no time, so the matchmaker would still be there to ask for another. Besides, Julius dated a lot of his (female) friends, and just didn't do anything romantic.

I must say: Congrats! Your hood seems to be really rolling now! So many accomplishments...

I also love the funny pics!

Of course no discrimination! Who says guys can't be into flowers!!

I suppose your guys haven't had a chance to develop "gay" feelings as there are SO MANY girls in your hood!

Yeah Julius doesn't look too happy about that date. Yay you made it through 50 1st dates! It's not hard, just time consuming. Nice job!
