Mercutio: Have a party, flirt with, give backrup to, and talk to Miranda. First wish fulfilled - talk to Miranda.
Miranda: Get charisma 8, be friends Alon Monty, invite someone over, and get a skill point. First wish fulfilled: Invite someone over.
Paris: Get a skill point in logic, charisma, and creativity, and talk to her dad Mercutio. First wish fulfilled - get creativity one.
Monday saw a date between Miranda and Mercutio to fulfill wishes, with Paris wanting all the usual toddler type wishes of snuggle, play, and talk with parents. Easy peasy.
Early Tuesday morning, Miranda came home from her job in Slacker, and rolled a wish to get a good reputation. Upon fulfiling it...
Miranda rolled a wish to woo-hoo, a Romance sim through and through. Thankfully Risky was taking a nap.
After Mercutio and Miranda had a nice nap themselves, Mercutio awoke with a want to have a party. So, many Capp and Monty relatives were called in.
Hermia (Capp) Summerdream, Hal Capp, Miranda (Capp) Monty, Isabella Monty. Mercutio is talking with Puck Summerdream in the background, and Oberon Summerdream is playing on the computer. |
Goopy Gilscarbo's doppelganger Christian Love crashed the party and decided to play Rabbit Head with little Paris, who was able to make friends with him.

During the party, Miranda receives a call from former Mr. Big who mysteriously hinted to a nice sample something or other that she could just have.
As soon as she accepted the sample, she was immediately asked to go on an outing. Naturally she accepted. At that moment, the carpool for work arrived and she stood up Mr. Big.
Leslie learned to Come Here, which fulfilled a wish for Miranda, and absolutely made her week!
The "sample" that Mr. Big gave to Miranda was a $10,000 television which Mercutio promptly fell in love with.
Wednesday morning Paris awakens with a wish to be played with/snuggled as usual. Mom Miranda was on hand. However, Miranda woke with a wish to have a good reputation. She had planned to tell Mercutio a joke to get the wish fulfilled but he jumped into the bathtub to get squeaky clean for the day ahead. So her attention turned to Paris, and a play/tickle interaction. This resulted in both wishes for both Sims being fulfilled. ASimWen didn't know that playing with a baby would fulfill the 'have a good reputation' wish!
Ah. Here is why Risky was silent. :)
Leslie being pregnant with 4 puppies put the lot population at 10. Great neighborhood population control, and excellent fodder to fulfill the "raise 20 pets want" that so many in this neighborhood has. Animal control was immediately summoned to collect the puppies for the adoption pool.
Miranda (Capp) Monty, Romeo Monty, Juliette Monty, Goneril Capp, Albany Capp, Paris and her daddy Mercutio, and Isabella Monty |
She grew up happily in platinum...
First wishes: Play with and tell inside joke to Mercutio, buy a lemonade stand and a piano. First wishes fulfilled, play with and tell inside joke to Mercutio.
Danny the townie dog showed up during the party. He was sold by Hal Capp to a townie on the Albany/Goneril Capp lot. Goneril looks on with disdain at the scraggly looking pooch asking for affection from Romeo.
Mercutio gets a nice aspiration boost from Paris' birthday party, a great success.
Thursday started out uneventful enough, until Miranda's subaspiration Knoweldge showed itself, and she rolled "Be Saved From Death". Weeeellll ASimWen hadn't done this in a while and thought it would be fun.
It took about 8 times running with the giant scissors, then it happened. Mercutio commenced to bawling and the dogs filed in to wail Miranda's passing.
Mercutio plead for his wife's life....
And he beat Grim at his own game. Grim will not win a soul this day!
Miranda got a nice aspiration shot, and Mercutio found all this to be completely sexy.
Miranda thanks Mercutio for saving her from Death and helping her fulfill a wish.
Thankfully all this transpired before Paris came home from school and she did not have to see her mother die, and then get resurrected. She wished to play and talk to a relative, and Mercutio was once again on the wish fulfilling mission. He then helped Paris fulfill another wish by helping her with her homework.
The rest of the evening for Paris was filled with playing with her dad, then she fell into bed exhausted.
Then later on that evening...
Two more puppies. That is 6 for this lot this week transferred to the adoption pool.
By Saturday morning Mercutio realized he could roll for a second aspiration. He rolled the same as Miranda...Knowledge. I foresee another 'Be Saved From Death' wish in the future. Mercutio then left for his job in Athletics as a Superstar. Miranda and Paris decided to have a day out first going to H&M Veronaville and purchasing some new clothes, then it was on to the roller rink as Paris was showing a wish to roller skate.
Cousin Avery Capp showed up and introduced himself to Paris while Miranda skated all by herself.
Sharla Ottomas showed up to play some pinball, and Paris joined her in the fun, all the while talking about the puppies that were born at her house.
Recent college graduate Desdemona Capp joins her sister Miranda and neice Paris for a lunch of ribs. Paris is not sure how she feels about Desi. Desdemona gets 1,000 aspiration points for meeting someone new.
By Saturday night, everyone was exhausted. Paris worked in a few wishes bossing the dogs around, gave Beatrice Monty a call to chat after meeting her at H&W, then headed off to bed. Mercutio and Miranda began to feed their Knowledge Sim innerselves and hit the thinking caps and study shelf fulfilling wishes for skill points.
Sunday Paris was showing a wish to make friends with Beatrice Monty and after several conversations on the telephone, it was done. Then it was out to play with the dogs, fulfilling more wishes.
Mercutio made it to Coach for his last promotion while playing this lot. Go you, Mercutio~!
Coming home from work he wanted to meet someone new, Be Saved From Death, get mechanical 8, and and be BFF with Demi Love, Hal Capp's cheap squeeze. It was off to the computer to chat up whoever was online, hopefully someone he had never met.
Even though Paris had her wishes in for the day, she was showing a wish to make friends with adult Allyn Thompson. I thought, why does she have kids in her Sims Known panel, but wants to make friends with adults? Who knows. She met Allyn at H&W the day before, the same time she met Beatrice Monty.
Miranda reaches a milestone and maxes Creativity. Now she wants to max all skills, reach TOC, get hobby plaque in Arts and Crafts, and....of course....Be Saved From Death. haha
And we end this round with:
Paris fuliflling a wish to eat omlettes.
Summary:
Ending Wishes:
Mercutio: Get TOC, Leslie the dog learns to sit up and roll over, and Benny the dog learns to speak. Mercutio threw Pop Sim type wishes at the beginning of the round...lots of parties, meeting people ect. But once he gained a sub aspiration of Knowledge, he wanted to skill, skill skill.
Miranda: Max all skills, reach TOC, get hobby plaque in Arts and Crafts, and....of course....Be Saved From Death. She wanted to date in the dead of winter, but once spring struck she started rolling Knowledge Sim type wishes. Backwards. Heh.
Paris: Get an A report card, get Creativity 7, play with Benny the dog and Leslie the dog. Paris was a total delight to play. She only wanted all the usual things Sim toddlers and children want. Play, snuggle, boss dogs around, make friends.
This was a wonderful and fun play with the Montys. :)
Keep on simmin'!

Lovely round that really looked as if it was fun to play!
ReplyDeleteHaving learned about the "have good reputation" thing only recently myself (from you, I think), I did not know that this can be fulfilled by interacting with a toddler, either.
Still would really like to see a general view of the house of each family you play.
So nice to see the Capps and Montys gathering at parties! Many of those in your pictures have either already died of old age in my game, or are elders now.
Loved it how Paris joined Sharla at the pinball machine and talked about her puppies - just like a little girl would do in real life!
I will try to remember to start taking pictures of the houses, and the floor plans. :)
DeleteExcellent round! The Capp's do love to party, especially those Popularity ones (which the majority are I think). Looks like Paris is that way inclined as well.
ReplyDeleteHow great to get 4 puppies in a litter! I've not seen that many- must try harder. It is a great way to keep the population under control. Nice one. :)
Yeah, I don't see 4 puppies very often either! That is the maximum they can have. I was glad to see it.
DeleteFun round. Paris is a very cute little girl, ad so cute that she talked about all the puppies. I am always nervous to try the "Be Saved From Death" wish. I don't think I'm 100% sure what affects if you win or not...is it just relationship?
