Broke (Verne)- Round 11- House 14

Welcome back to Verne Broke's house.

This is the original Caliente household, which Verne remodelled.

 Verne is the alien son of Remington- former maid and husband of Brandi Broke. Verne had a twin called Jules who sadly perished in a fire.
Verne met Lucy at Uni and they have been happily married for some time.

Verne had inheritance from Lilith and Lucy from both Dustin & Beau.

 Verne has been perma-plat for some time so I only fulfil wishes for Lucy who has yet to achieve her LTW of becoming a Mad Scientist. She is currently a Scholar.

 Verne amuses himself by cleaning.

and chatting with friends.
Lucy always wants to blog about Science.
Sharing a bathroom often leads to lectures in the morning when showers are had and taps are ran for the bath. Heh.

Verne often rolls a wish for a baby, then it rolls away, and I'm not fulfilling his wishes. They enjoy a nice date downtown.

Ah, Lucy stuck to her pc while Verne bring her flowers. :)

Lots of infectious diseases going around at work for Lucy it seems. Still she got a nice promotion.

Family Sim Verne was able to make a lovely pan of soup though.

All better.

Even though Science is Lucy's hobby she wished for and won a cooking competition against the Head Chef, Dream1E Dreamer the servo and Drama Teacher Prof whatsisname. 


Verne had gone into the Paranormal career last round and was slowly working his way to the top.

On Thursday Lucy made it! Hello permanent platinum. 

Later that night on her first shift as a Mad Scientist...
Hmm, Green or Orange?
Lucy picked Green.

Yay. Sometimes I don't read all these little cards and had quite forgotten the theme of this one. Made me laugh. :D

As they are both permanently platinum I decided to send Verne & Lucy off for a vacation- they both constantly wished for either the Far East or the Mountains and so I flipped a coin...

and the Far East won. 

Both wished to learn to teleport and Lucy was lucky straight away. She scared a few people (Verne more than anyone) when she used her new teleport skill for the first time.

Oh Verne... *sigh*.

Well ok then, here goes nothing... or everything.  :D

You may have noticed I gave Lucy a slightly more grown up version of plaits. I think it suits her nicely.

Verne got a massage at the spa on the resort they stayed at.

Lucy had to cover her head when her wish from a fountain gave her a nice bit of coin.

                 

Third time lucky for Verne! Last day of the holiday too!

Lucy was feeling tired and sick (uhoh) so Verne learnt the ancient Dragon Legend on his own.

Then checked them both out and they headed back to Pleasantview.

The vacation bonuses kicked in and Verne got his big promotion. He only has to work 2 days a week now.

He also got a bronze badge in the little garden he started after Lucy had wished to start a garden a while back.

Yep, Lucy will have  a new challenge next round!


Verne can't wait to be a dad, the mushy old family Sim.

Summary:-

I enjoyed this week at Verne's, he was easy as already perma plat and Lucy got lucky with her job. Smaller houses equal less distractions and her wishes were pretty much the same every day, blog science, stargaze, cook food, eat food, talk about hobby.

I figured they might get boring now I'm not fulfilling wishes and I really want Remington- rest his soul- to have at least one descendant in the 'hood. Now he will next time. 

Happy Simming.

    1. That’s so true Peachy, it’s nice to have a good mix of large and small households. Thanks for stopping by, :)

  2. I wonder what skin tone the baby will be!
    Who are Lucy's parents? She's not the original Lucy Burb, is she?
    The holiday was good for them - both learned to teleport, hooray! Not that they live on a huge lot, where teleporting is certainly helpful, but it is always fun to play Sim that can do something not every Sim can.

  3. I too am intrigued to see what the little one's skin tone will be!
    Lucy was a YA townie that Verne met at the Secret Society so she's not been a playable until now.
    I often forget with my Sims that can teleport to make them do so. It is a very handy skill, especially when on a large lot.
    Thanks for reading :)

  4. Oh I agree about the teleporting. I have a couple of sims in Pleasantview who can do it and I forget. Strange but I don’t forget vamps who can fly. Haha. Love that animation. I too wondered about lucy’s origins. After reading that certain sims had passed I knew that couldn’t be Lucy Burb. A fun and entertaining read!

  5. Oh what a fun round. A smaller, quieter house, that was very successful. I have a few sims that can teleport and always forget to have them use it. Ah well, it's still helpful when I do remember. Good to know where Lucy came from, I was thinking Burg as well but realized she was too young to be her.
