Round Nine - Park III

-
Last Round - (Alice lived at home last round and this is her first out on her own) They got a genie lamp, and Alice also became a witch! Ryan's tomato plants were neglected as always. Rex passed away :( Park's Market was doing well, but one employee quit so they had to hire a new one. Winnie's boyfriend Oliver was causing trouble with townies in their house. Kira got a robot crafting station. Alice had her birthday and became an adult, and moved out to her own apartment.

Alice is out on her own for her very first round as an adult.

We come to her fighting mad and ready to bring the Grim Reaper to justice for taking her mother Kira. :(



Let’s take a little tour of Alice’s apartment. I gave it a bit of a witchy vibe to suit her… witchiness!







The business gnome in the living room was in her inventory and I thought it was too cute not to get a home.











The rest of Alice’s apartment - her bedroom and bathroom, as well as the second bedroom which has been converted for witchy purposes!



Alice’s round began with her procuring a potion to cure her of witchiness!






But it was only temporary :) I turned her into a witch again right away, I only had to do it because I forgot to take her spell book with her when she moved and I needed it to regenerate!
Her outfit was changed back to normal afterwards too.



Alice’s friend and next door neighbour Whitney came over to visit.





Alice made grilled cheese sandwiches, then ignored her for a while to play computer.





I sent Alice out to get a pet - being a witch, a cat felt appropriate! This is Hermes - pronounced the Greek way, not the French way ;)









Alice bumped into Marina while she was out at the pet store.







Back at the apartment, Hermes starts to settle in.





Quiet night in for Alice.







The next morning Hermes supervises pancake making!









Alice flew off to her community lot she’s just purchased, to open up her new business - this is Grandma’s Attic Antiques!













Customers started coming in right away and Alice got her sales skills warmed up. Her cashier skills aren’t the speediest now, but she’ll get there.









The sales continued at a steady pace for her whole first day, and the antique store reached level 1! After she closed up for the night Alice did some celebratory puddle jumping.




Hermes chasing stars.
(also realized editing these pics that I need to move the coffee table OMSP’s down a bit!)







The swingset is something kids of all ages enjoy!




This is a great example of why I usually keep apartment doors locked…
Alice’s shower broke, so she unlocked the door to let her landlord in to make the repairs. While he was doing that, her neighbour Dave came in and stole the business gnome from her living room!




Well the landlord was just not having that, so he comes out and catches Dave in the act and attacks him. They got into a huge fight, and Dave’s wife Whitney comes running in to watch.


The whole time, Alice calmly enjoyed her breakfast.
The landlord won but unfortunately didn’t get the gnome back. Next round I play at the Perry house, I’m making Dave gift it back to Alice!







Alice went out to Club Gerbit, and got really into singing on the karaoke machine!






Alice introduced herself to a few people, to see if she had any chemistry with anyone. She’s bi, so she has more possibilities than the average Sim. She made some friends but no one stood out, until I had her scope the room, and it looks like Lily was looking good to her!
She happened to leave the lot pretty soon afterwards, before they could chat much, and then Alice’s round was winding down. But I’ll have to pursue this further next round and see if it goes anywhere!
