Welcome back to Dreamwidth, everyone! Today's update is not an April Fool, but rather the beginnings of a new LEPacy! Let's get started, shall we?
We begin our descent back into a LEPacy using the Base Game, High End Loft Stuff, and Generations configuration. Why? This LEPacy serves as a reboot to my Newton LEPacy, which was about to explore Showtime. I wanted to have a fresh start before getting to Showtime, so I chose two packs to add on to the Base Game as part of this soft reboot. Now let's me our founder!
Welcome Cathy Baines back to Sunset Valley! A bit more about our lovely leading lady is below.
Cathy Baines
Traits: Genius, Bookworm, Handy, Athletic, Charismatic
LTW: World Renown Surgeon
Favorites: Classic Music, Lime Green, and a Food I can't remember right now, oops
Zodiac Sign: Gemini
Her house is quite modest, but functional. I purposefully used that green siding and red roof combination as a callback to her first LEPacy house.
Her house's location is purposeful, since it's next to the Frio brothers. That's right! Connor Frio will be our spouse this generation, since 1) everyone and their mother has made him their Gen 1 spouse, and 2) I haven't actually played with him or his brother a lot (outside of knowing that his brother is the father of Claire Ursine's baby).
The flirting is going well...
...until Cathy tries to go in for the kiss. Who knew he was Unflirty? I sure didn't until now. But hey, I accept the challenge!
Cathy: Well that was a bit too much, but you can stuff my ballot box anytime. ;)
Connor: That's. That's still too much.
Cathy: Shit. My bad.
That night, Cathy was almost robbed. Seriously?
Robbie: Hey, I gotta live too! But who the hell gets their founder an alarm this early!?
He unfortunately got away, since SOMEONE couldn't even do their job right smh.
Anyway, back on track. Cathy got a job at the hospital, and started doing well! Her boss is Jamie Jolina, with co-workers Geoffrey Landgraab, Artie Page, and Morgana Wolff.
Cathy is a quick study (and I did cheat a few points of logic to her to start since LEPacy rules are loose, and she did technically go to college even if it's not an official in-game pack for this LEPacy yet). She's also gotten at least one promotion here! (Or two? I forgot if it's Level 2 or 3 where Sims can start wearing scrubs to work in the medical career.)
We also got somewhere with Connor! Plus I think Story Progression made a move and gave him a girlfriend, or at least a romantic interest since it still said he was single, so I had to have Cathy move fast.
See, fast. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Cathy chatting with her co-worker, Morgana, after work! I also took this screenshot to admire how busy the area by the hospital is. I swear if you add in more EPs (or even all of them) the autonomy gets cranked down and the towns seem less lively.
Also sighted was Cornelia Goth yelling at Gobias Koffi about Mortimer. Maybe she thought he was acting inappropriately towards him?
That night, Cathy met Vita Alto at the park. Which was foreshadowing, since in a later play session (that will be documented next update) Cathy got an opportunity to befriend her for her job!
Cathy hung out on the swings and chatted up Bella Bachelor, since she knows her dad, Simis.
Bella left since it was getting late, and Connor autonomously joined Cathy on the swings! How cute.
I didn't screenshot their embrace, but Tamara Donner saw, and, well...
Tamara: YOU CHEATER!
Connor: We weren't even a thing!
Yeah. I guess that's who Story Progression was starting to hook Connor up with. Oh well, he's ours now Tamara.
Cathy put her in her place though.
With that, I say that's a good place to end the first part of this new LEPacy! I hope you enjoyed, and I'll see you in the next part.
