Okay. I don't like this not controlling Sims. heh I just won't make it a point to fulfill wishes for platinum Sims. Ugh. I suppose at this point in time during this neighborhood I have figure out how the wish system works.
Right away on Monday Komie gets a promotion as he climbs the ladder to Business Tycoon. He is nearly the next perm plat Sim in Pleasantview. I am still thinking over this business of controlling perm plat sims or not. Komie is not perm plat, but his wife Lucy is.
On Tuesday, Lucy decides to throw a birthday party for both of her boys. (That is an elder Dustin Broke there in the background in his crazy looking outfit). Walter grew up looking very much like a Burb, although it looks like he may have the heavy cheekbones of his father Komie Tellerman. Upon growing up, Walter wanted to make a friend, get creativity 9, get a lemonade stand, and buy a game He went to work on the easel, and a chess set was bought.
Arthur grew up to look pretty much the same as Walter did as a toddler and did not get somebody to put him on the potty chair before unselectable gramma Jennifer Burb whisked him up to play with him. Upon growing up, Arthur wanted all this toddler skills and to be tickled by Lucy.
The party was a great success, and the Tellermans decided to go away on an Oriental vacation. Both Lucy and Komie were showing the wish, and I decided to give in to shake up this lot a little. Both had been working very hard on their careers, (Lucy having already reached the top of Dance, and now just a promotion or two away from top of Criminal, and Komie nearly to the top of business) and they had born two fine boys. Time to get a way for a while. This will be Lucy's second trip to the Orient, and Komie's first.
Upon arrival at the Hotel, Komie wanted to learn a new massage or get a message, get a logic point or take a tour. Lucy wanted to go on a tour, learn a new massage or get a massage, use the sauna, learn to teleport (locked in) or become bff with tourist Tyson Dawn. Komie headed to the message table, and Lucy headed to the sauna.
I was driven to help Lucy meet the Ninja. Never in all my TS2 playing years, have I ever been able to get a Sim to learn ninja teleportation.
Lucy and Komie drug from lot to lot for three days. They laid down for many massages to keep up their energy, ate lots of steamed rice at the vendor's counters, and drank gallons of tea. The ninja would appear, then flip way just as Lucy would get to him. Finally, on day three, Lucy caught up with him.
She put on her best face and asked to learn to teleport. The Ninja replied: I will teach you to teleport if you can answer this question. Which must you know better, yourself or your enemy? Lucy answer, YOURSELF.
YAY! First time ever for me, ASimWen. :) I now have a teleporting Sim.
Lucy and Komie were able to relax the last two days of vacation, and do fun things. Like calmly sipping tea.
The day that Lucy learned to teleport, she and Komie went back to the hotel, and Komie flopped into bed, exhausted. Lucy's energy was full however, and she decided to go digging for treasure. She found a tattered old map that lead to a pagoda in the shadows. She thought this would be a fun thing to do so she set out, waving to the other hotel guests as she left the lot without Komie.
The walk was a long one, but finally she found the place.
Lucy found a little wise man calmly meditating.
Lucy teleported into the pagoda and bowed to the old wise man, convincing him that he had indeed misjudged her after all.
He taught her the old legend, nothing that any other normal Sim knew. Lucy was in awe, and felt that she could now return home a whole Sim.
Lucy and Komie enjoyed breakfast together the next day. It was nearly time to return to Pleasantview, but there was still more to do on this vacation.
Lucy paid homage to an ancient civilization by throwing a coin into the Lucky Fountain.
She and Komie played mahjong with the locals.
And they learned ti chi. (Erm, there is teen Michele Kearney at the register. She sure gets around, even cashiers in the Orient.) heh
It was finally time to go back to Pleasantview. The Tellermans were happy, and well rested. This vacation was worth every penny!
Once back home, life got back to normal. Lucy taught Arthur to walk, talk, and potty fulfilling wishes for him, and Komie spent alot of time on the internet. Walter went to school for the first time.
Lucy was struck by lightening while harvesting the money trees out on the balcony. Too bad this didn't happen in the Orient when she had the wish for it.
Lucy spun up the wish to hustle pool, another one of those things I usually ignore. I had to install a rec center with a pool table in it heh. She hung out for a while, then found a willing target in Joe Carr.
On Friday, Lucy once again reaches TOC. Her new LTW? To become a Prestidigitator.
Arthur grew up on Friday. He and Walter look much alike...they certainly look like brothers!
Saturday dawned with the boys showing a wish to go fishing, so off the family went to the park. Arthur is on the left, Wlater on the right. My oh my.
Komie was harboring a wish to play chess, and Lucy was more than happy to oblige him with a friendly game. Why look, they even have a spectator!
Sunday saw the same thing all over again, a trip to the park to fish. Lucy even spun up a wish to fish, but Komie stayed home to play chess. At this point in time, I got up to go check laundry and left the game running...
When I got back it was well into the evening on Sunday and they were all hungry and tired and mean. They immediately went home to fullfill needs.
And this is where we leave the Tellermans for this week. At 1:00 am in the morning, Komie is making salmon, Walter and Lucy are dancing, and Arthur is fulfilling wish after wish by collecting cleaning skills.
Ending Wishes:
Komie: Get TOC Business, play Marco Polo, max logic, and win a gaming competition
Lucy: Play games, watch a movie, play chess, talk about hobby, play Marco Polo, and become a witch. (locked in).
Walter: Grow up well, go hiking, catch a bug, get an A+ report card.
Arthur: Eat pancakes, go hiking, get cleaning 7, and get an A+ report card.
Have fun everybody, and keep on simmin'!
