Williamson- Round 11 - House 18

Welcome back to the Williamson house.

A recap from last time. William Williamson, Erin Wren (zombie), Klara Vonderstein & Almeric Davis moved here after college. William was flying along in his career and attained his LTW by becoming Head of SCIA, only to finish work one day to find his flatmates had all perished in a fire started when Almeric burnt the crepes suzettes he was cooking.

William then invited his college friend Melanie (Reamon) to move in, they fell in love and got married... 

Here they are, both Fortune Sims.  As I said William is perma plat, he is now pursuing the Artist career. Melanie has a wish to earn 100K and so took a job in the Athletic career.

They have a Butler, Zion. He is pretty useless, he does make the bed and water a couple of plants but he's really just a bestie of both of them and he's normally dismissed pretty early in the day unless either Sim needs a social boost.

William wished to meet someone new and greeted the first walk by of the day.

Hmm, Melanie feels she needs the practice....

Woop! Win for Melanie as she earns lots of skills.

All that practice paid off and she came home with a promotion..

and a friend... Abhijeet was the long suffering fiancé of Nina Caliente if you remember... (she hardly did in her lifetime) *heh*.

Klara's ghost is the first to come out on Monday night. She never came in the house so William & Melanie slept well.

On Tuesday both Sims had wishes to vacation in the Far East. Melanie booked their cab to come tomorrow and burnt pancakes for William's breakfast.

"Yum, *gag*…" :D

Whilst Melanie had a nice soak in the tub William prepared their clothes for the trip.

Having lots of money already meant they could stay somewhere nice so they headed to a fine hotel.

It seems Crime is on the up in this resort, with various holidaymakers talking about police and jail. 

William tried his luck with the Ninja but it was no good for him. (He only saw the Ninja once in 3 days).

 Ah well, walking for you then William.

He and Melanie treated themselves to some new clothes, jewellery and souvenirs.

They met a Wise Old Man who told them a tale of dragons.

William's secondary aspiration is Romance, so he wished for public woohoo. He also wishes to have woohoo with 5 Sims, already having had 3 in college.

They spent the rest of the vacation going on trips, learning a massage and relaxing in the sauna.

Before leaving the next day refreshed and ready for home.

William chose to continue with his Floristry badge.

Almeric Davis came out to haunt. 

Melanie got the brunt of that.

(On a side note, gutted that Almeric died as I've never played him through a lifetime).

On Thursday William became an expert Florist.

Zion welcomed guests to the house, a Barista lady and two of his employers' college and secret society friends, Karen & Phoebe Long.

I decided as they shared a surname that it was time for some new 'families' to spice things up and so moved them in...

First Karen, 

Then Phoebe.

Then moved them out... where they will join Round 12 at some point. 

William hit the Zone in Arts & Crafts.

Mel too is working her way to the zone, she loves to paint and sell masterpieces.

William remembered they had a garden, don't recall who started it but he figured he may as well make use of it and earn another badge.

Yes, he also became a Visionary, earning lots more money.

On his first shift as a Visionary on Saturday he chose to 'Pay Bill'...

Whoop... what a shame this wasn't Mel's chance card!

Mel's no slacker though, she's earning good money and working her way to her 100K with promotions. (25K achieved today).

A quick chat with friends after work (here talking with Plantsim Vampire Frond) to keep that friend count high.

William often wishes to stargaze at the telescope but there are no signs of alien life for him. Mel is lounging on the bench behind.

uhoh, Erin's ghost came out to haunt.

oops, Poor Mel got the full force of it. 

On Sunday when Mel left for work William's wish to woohoo 5 wasn't going away and so he called over townie Yusun.

After dazzling her with smartglasses they wound up in his bed.

meanwhile...

A chance card for Melanie popped up. She had to act fast and chose the Heimlich.

Yes a promotion, but uhoh she's coming home.... 

Melanie did come home but thankfully there were a couple of hours left until the end of a new shift which meant I could let her walk straight to work. She did and was completely unaware of the goings on inside the house.

Which was probably just as well... 

She came home with a promotion to 'Coach'. 

William greeted her as if nothing had happened, as Romance loving Sims do. ;)

That night saw all 3 ghosts out-a-haunting. None of them ventured into the house though which seemed like a missed opportunity. :D

Summary,

A good week here at the Williamson house.

I know William is perma plat and so I'm not fulfilling too many wishes but had to do something to break up the 'buy this and that' wishes and his Romance wishes soon kicked in. 

Melanie earned 25K when she became a Superstar on Saturday, and 2 further promo's on Sunday helped boost that even further I'm sure.

I think next round maybe I can get one of them a job in Paranormal to see if we can't resurrect a Sim, or two. Maybe Almeric can have his life back after all.

Talking of ghosts they aren't doing a lot, just floating around mostly and not slowing the lot down.

No wishes for either Sim to have babies, if it happens to William at the telescope I'll let it be but don't intend for these two to be parents together.

Happy Simming. :)
