Summer 2: Grant

Welcome back to Drama Llama! Last time Finn couldn’t make up his mind on who to date, Elissa or Ella, Grant married two different men for their money, each one died in ‘mysterious’ circumstances, and Megan and Max became teenagers. Alright, it’s been awhile since I’ve played this (or written for my blogs) so let’s see how good my notes are!

We start things off with Megan rolling a Want to flirt with Beth! I pinned it, but she isn’t going to do it anytime soon as Beth is now a young adult so it would be kind of weird.

Max here is cold even though they’re in the middle of a heat wave…
Max: “The air conditioning is on!”
Yes, because it is freaking HOT OUTSIDE!

Well that was fast. Finn’s new aspiration is Friend of the World, though I probably won’t work on it much till after he ages up.

The teens all have homework, so they all sit together on the couch to get to it!

Grant meanwhile is still working on the Body Builder aspiration, I think he just has to max the athletic skill.

It looks like I lied, Finn is out meeting people for his aspiration, I don’t think he ends up meeting the 10 new people he needs yet.

Megan meanwhile has become the designated pet caretaker with her aspiration and is working on befriending Oreo.

Oh yeah, I gave Finn the Great Kisser reward trait last time, so talking to those people was enough to max out his skill.

Oh look, he does end up meeting 10 people! Man I don’t remember any of this.

Honey to no surprise needs a bath, I swear this dog is always rolling in mud puddles.

Um, what are Oreo and Snuggles doing????

Looks like they finished cause Oreo decided he wanted to attack Megan. *face palm* That is not how you make friends Oreo!

Snuggles meanwhile was transfixed by the spinning washer.

The ghost of Marcus made an appearance, though I’m not sure what he’s embarrassed about, maybe for falling for Grant’s ridiculous lines?

ABOUT TIME!!! It feels like he’s been working on this FOREVER! I gave Grant the Beach Life aspiration.

These guys have money to spare, so I went and put in a pool!

Honey, who loves to swim, found it almost immediately.

Grant needs a tan so he parked his butt on one of the loungers. I’m just glad he’s not doing it naked.
Grant: “I should, to avoid tan lines, but Serena threatened me with castration if she ever catches me naked in public.”

*sigh* These dogs always seem to be fighting with someone. This time it’s Oreo and Honey.

With Monday comes school projects, so everyone pitches in!

I’m starting to hate this fear, it feels like everyone gets it!

While at least this ghost is being useful.

Though I’m not sure what’s going on with these two here…

Now that’s what I want to see from you Finn!

This is uh… Carter? I think?

Anyway, he’s here cause Grant is throwing a Kava party!

Though this guy showed up uninvited.

Grant: “Time to get drunk!”
Serena: “Did you really have to invite my ex?”

Darrell: “Now how did I end up here?”

Conner, there’s already food, you didn’t have to microwave anything!
Conner: “I’ve never used a microwave this nice before!”
That’s cause everything in your house is cheap.

And success!

I can’t remember why I moved the projects inside, but I assume it was raining or something.

With everyone working on the last project, it gets done pretty quick.

They must have a day off from school, cause Finn invited Elissa over! (I just now realized someone left some dirty laundry in the yard… This is what happens with a bunch of Slobs and Lazy sims!)

Finn woos her with some poetry.

Gah! I just love these two together.

My MCCC settings apparently allow teens to get engaged…

So Finn proposes to Elissa!

Meanwhile Grant watches everything like a creeper…

Seriously Grant! Conner is married… TO AVERY!!! WHO YOU WANTED TO FLIRT WITH LAST TIME!!!
Grant: “What can I say, I’ve never had a threesome before.”

With the kids at school, Grant is off to Sulani in search of a coconut.

Coconut acquired, now he needs to eat it.

And another milestone down!

Grant has to do some beach combing, which is basically how he spends the rest of the day.

Looks like Lincoln was at the beach too! Though I imagine the rain kind of ruined things a bit.

Megan is super dirty and apparently Carter came for a visit… I have no real idea why I took this picture.

The next day Grant is back for more beachcombing! He manages to finish…

and now has to grill a bunch of stuff.

It looks like the power’s off and Sarah (I think) came for a visit!

I’ve decided I’m going to have Finn be the first of my sims to go to University! So he’s off to apply, I’ll be figuring out how all of this works as I go.

Sarah seems to have switched her attention Max, and looking at their expressions, I wouldn’t be surprised if the two of them were flirting.

Megan meanwhile finally managed to become companions with Honey!

Just in time for Finn’s birthday!

ARE YOU SHITTING ME???? FINN IS NOW EVIL!!!! WTF!

Surprising personality development aside, it seems Jade has decided to visit her son for like the second or third time I think.
Finn: “Mother.”
Jade: “Did you really think I was going to miss your birthday?”
Finn: “When have you ever come to my birthday before?”
*awkward silence*

Grant is home again, and still working on grilling food.

It looks like Jade isn’t the only one to show up for Finn’s birthday, at least he and Ella are friends.

Max has started to make a mobile app! This is the first time I’ve had a sim do this.

Elissa is now a young adult as well, so Finn invites her over!

He gets her to move in, and she also applies to university!

I gave her a quick makeover. Anyways, Elissa Walsh is an Art Lover, Child of the Ocean, and Genius. I gave her the aspiration Academic. I’m going to test out University with these two!
I checked her family tree and it turns out she’s the child of Darling Walsh and Duane Estrada (the party crasher).

I bought the family a second computer so Finn could check his application and he got accepted!

Finn: “Wait, that means I’m going to have to do a lot more homework!”
Yeah… That’s university!

And Max is now going through a phase.

As an Art Lover, it made sense for Elissa to take up painting.

Seriously? How many dead husbands do you have haunting this place?

Grant: “They’re just so frightening.”
YOU ONCE SLEPT WITH A GHOST!!

That’s how you get over this fear? This’ll be interesting…

Grant: “To conquer my fear we must brawl!!!!”
Marcus: “WTF!”

Well, Marcus may hate him now, but Grant is no longer afraid of ghosts.

Elissa checked her application, but she hasn’t been accepted yet, I guess she has to wait till next rotation. I moved her and Finn (with Oreo) out into a house in the town which came with University.

Anyways, that’s all for now, see you next time!
