(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 1

Day 3 begins when people stop being polite and start getting REAL. Shannow and Ross are finally officially enemies, after Shannow fulfilled his "Imply Someone's Mother is a Llama" wish:



Meanwhile Gusto and Droll finally get a chance to talk. Combine Gusto's Good and Friendly traits, and their mutual appreciation for the arts, and Gusto is now friends with everyone in the house.



The same cannot be said for Droll and Qonas, after she humiliates him in a game of chess after he's been practicing since moving day.



Shannow continues making his presence known around the house as he destroys Droll's computer (and later, Gusto's TV).



But Qonas is determined to raise his Handiness skill, so he lends a hand.



Meanwhile, Gusto and Droll become even better acquainted.



Where the hell is Shego during all of this!? Well, while Shannow was skipping out on his scheduled heist to stay home, get drunk, and systematically destroy every computer, television and shower on the property, Shego's boss gave the heist job to her instead. She fulfilled it and then... broke into a warehouse to read.

(FUN FACT: This is the same warehouse Alice once tried to squat in.)



Qonas tired himself out trying to fix everything and ended up calling a repair person to do the job before going to bed. Shego returns late from the heist and the warehouse to find Kindra in her bedroom. They have a brief but friendly conversation before she finishes her work and leaves...



...whereupon Shego changes into her formal gown and crawls into bed.

It did show up, Seej. I just have no idea why you gave it to me so suddenly. :)
Because the house looks good... and there were no "have a cookie" icons. So, here's your flag? I don't know, man, I was tired.

You really earned those aviators, buddy. :D
Real men wear aviators.

Also, The Shannow cares not for your personal possessions! They are but his own drunken playthings!

My mother is so NOT a llama!

Apparently my go-with-the-flow attitude does not match up well with your destroy-everything-and-be-a-badass attitiude.

Wait til you see the next day's events! I got CHILLS when it happened, it seemed so deliciously Shego.[/QUOTE]

Does it have anything to do with the reason that I'm nowhere to be seen? She killed me, didn't she?

Bad choice. I'm old & bound to be a bit gamy. Should have pounced on one of the younger dudes.

Plus I hear you'd rather eat women.
 
(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

Oh I'm not eating Dave, no worries. Besides, older meat is just fine when tenderized with a hammer for a good few hours.
 
(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

A new day dawns, and we find that Dave is either still alive or some kinda burnt waffle eating zombie. Ross finishes his breakfast and begins reading a book he got from work in order to increase his job performance.





And Ross makes a friend! HUGS!



Also, another friend. No hugs though (yet!).



Gusto and Vyta decided around now that they wanted to get jobs as well, and got jobs in the Political and Medical careers, respectively.

Droll doesn't seem to think Vyta's last move was particularly well thought-out, in any case.



Dave and Ross got promoted today too, and Shannow got a small raise!

Droll and Qonas are still unemployed, but Droll is a published author and Qonas can repair household stuff for free. He also enjoys FISHING.



At about this point, I got a notice saying that Shego's boss had died. Pretty mysterious, if you ask me. I mean the guy was old, yeah, but he died while both he and Shego were at work....

Eh, it's probably nothing. Just a coincidence right!?

THEN WHY IS SHEGO BEING ARRESTED

Q

Qonas

(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 1

Really, now, with Shego we all knew it was a matter of time before the body count piled up or houses were burnt down. :p The real question is, will Shannow go and break her out of prison?

The same cannot be said for Droll and Qonas, after she humiliates him in a game of chess after he's been practicing since moving day.
Excuse me but cheating does not count as "humiliating" me. :rant: As a woman with an inferior brain (it's science, just ask Ron Burgundy) that is clearly the only way she got a victory. :D

Qonas can continue to be the house's friendly repairman, just so long as nobody puts anything breakable on the top shelf.
 
(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

See? I knew it! I finally act on impulse and BOOM 5 0. :devil: I was just going for an agressive promotion!
 
(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

Qonas, your character ad NO repair experience, and wanted to fix Droll's computer immediately.

I fully expected that you might be electrocuted and be the first to die.

On your third day in the house.
 
Q

Qonas

(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

You forget his Genius and down-home wisdom earned by hours and hours of fishing.
 
(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

Hehe, only the Handy skill keeps you from getting killed due to shoddy repairs. Much as Droll's Natural Cook trait means she'll never burn a meal or start a fire.
 
Q

Qonas

(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

What skill is it that causes her to have to cheat in order to embarrass a genius? ;)

Why would I do that? it helps not m drinking or attempts to live in the lap..of luxury!


 
(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

Dave and Qonas go to eat breakfast and discover that both refrigerators have spoiled food in them.





Droll tries to discuss football with Ross but he seems almost completely uninterested.



Droll's been cooped up in the house lately writing her book, and has started to go stir crazy. I sent her to the bookstore to pick up some recipe books and a fishing book for Qonas.



Qonas proudly mounts is first catch in the kitchen. IT'S A START, PEOPLE.



Shego spent several hours in holding last night, but they were unable pin anything on her and let her go.

She's in a pretty sour mood.

Ross' guitar playing cheers her up for a little while...



...until Shannow comes along and pokes the angry bear.



This pushes Shego over the edge.

She chases down Shannow and starts by insulting his childishness, and mocks his ambition.

The two don't get along very well.





All this bickering doesn't seem to disturb Vyta preparing for work by reading medical texts, or Gusto working on his speech.



Dave got asked to work late at the newspaper today, and has to go to bed early. Qonas is being a dick by playing loud video games in his room.



The ladies enjoy some chess before bed.



And Shannow, having been involved in several arguments now, hits the gym for a while. It's only a matter of time until he has to actually fight someone, after all.

pokes the angry bear
:rofl:-:thumbsup:

Gusto, you have a way with storytelling, seriously, I hope this goes on for a long time. I really would like to see where things end up.
 
(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

Oh well thank you Miss Shego. :)

I'd like to keep going with it for a whole myself, I just don't know how long I can keep up multiple updates per day. ;)
 
(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

Well, I think for the longevity fo this project, you need to MAKE multiple updates, but not post them here so often, that way you have backed up updates you can use on days you don't feel like keeping up with it.

Hahahahahahahahahaha! Damn right he hits the gym. I am really liking this guy. Drinking, insulting, and working out. Dear jesus, add in comics and video games, and you have made me!
 
(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

Yea definitely.

I've just been excited. :)

Honestly it took like 7 hours of set up before I started playing this game, and now I play it for 10 minutes and have like 15 screenshots. :p

Yeah come to think of it, Shannow has never played on Gusto's video game system... He played on Droll's computer for a while before he busted it, but not so much with the gaming. There are no comics in game, eiter, and you're the only character who has done NO reading.

Lotta dancing though. Sometimes I'll see you dancing in Vyta's room, scroll away to something more interesting for a couple in-game hours, then go back and you'll STILL be workin' it. Completely alone. :confused:
 
(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

It's been pretty much decided that the three skills Qonas wants to master are Handiness, Fishing, and Logic.

And he gets pissed off when anyone suggests he isn't FANTASTIC at all of them.

I swear, his hubris is gonna kill him when he tries to repair a stereo in the shower or something.

My money is on Qonas dying first.
 
Q

Qonas

(The Sims 3) Halforum House Redux - UPDATE Oct 2

And what happens when, instead of dying, the electrocution in the shower turns Qonas into a super-villain? With the powers of dominating chess and wrangling marlin? What then? WHERE WILL YOUR GOD BE THEN?!

Just do one-per-day updates, that's all. Then it won't be so much work and it leaves everyone gnawing at the bit for the next one.

Also, if Qonas dies, I nominate myself to take their place.

You know, unless someone dies first in the second Halforum House (HalfHouse?). Whichever comes first. :D

You're welcome to wait outside like our previous "homeless" residents. :twisted:
