Uglacy Challenge

Newly moved away from Hottie Heaven, Acheron settles into the usual bachelor lawn life quite well. While at work Christy Stratton jogs by, which is a shame because rumor has it she has some ugly ancestors. Acheron comes home bringing a friend, but the creepy Abhijeet DiPepsi (or whatever his name is), who is sadly male. Acheron befriends him lacking anything better to do.

Bacheek’s first few days as a toddler conveniently fall on Sandy and Acheron’s days off, so they get to work teaching him the essentials, which go quickly thanks to the application of Smart Milk. At all other times he’s parked in front of one of his learning toys. On his last day as a toddler it is necessary to hire a nanny. Kendal proves to be just as stupid as every other nanny. God has to hover over Bacheek and cancel his autonomous actions otherwise Kendal decides she can’t do anything and wanders off to make TV dinners. The worst comes when poor Bacheek is desperate to go to sleep while Kendal putters around playing chess and taking out the trash. When she finally DOES pick up Bacheek, she feeds him (even though he is 99% full). Stupid cow.

Sandy turns out to be a chance card sharp and gets promoted right to astronaut, thus losing her chance to get the Military career reward, something desperately needed since Bacheek is a truly lazy ass Sim who builds body points like molasses in January. Sandy is at maxed body (which also took for-freaking-ever) so rather than have that teaching potential go to waste, she gets a new military job from the paper on her last day as an adult.

Asinette has just turned into a unfortunately respectable looking teen, albeit with a rather prominent profile. The orange hair dark skin combo looks rather exotically attractive on a female – DAMN IT!

Anyway, Ramin is a good friend of the family and Asinette calls him every few days when she is not hard at work studying (being a Knowledge Sim). Christy, having earned the Athletic career punching bag, turns in her running shoes for an apron and gets a job as a waitress. Thankfully this is the step before the reward promotion, so it should only be a matter of a day before that enters the house. The big hurry is that Sandy only has about 2 days left and is the only one in the house with a significantly high cooking skill to train the younger generation. Sandy is still going strong despite her age. She keeps having these piddling wants to flirt with one of her various conquests, so she’ll phone Kennedy, flirt, have that want replaced with one to flirt with Benjamin, so she’ll send Kennedy packing. The little 750 pt hits are barely getting her up into the mid green, but no WooHoo wants are forthcoming!

Asinette transitions to adult a nanosecond after God gets the message that she’s able to. She is still too good looking by Uglacy standards, though she does sport the traditional Stratton cheekbones. She timidly approaches Ramin and gives him a friendly hug. Their relationship is at 100/100 already, so it is well received. Ramin then caresses Asienette’s face, as if letting her know he’s been waiting a long time for her to grow up. BAM! Love. Ramin then autonomously serenades Asienette – I guess it was in the stars. A wedding is planned for the next day (after Ramin gets home from work that is) but the two decide to consummate their new relationship in the hot tub. No lullaby is forthcoming, so the couple each takes a quick pee then heads to bed. This time is more successful.

When last we left our intrepid Uglacy, Gabria had just turned into a far too pretty Knowledge Sim. She has her father’s flat nose bridge, but otherwise has nice features. The family deliberates between Juan “Proven Ugly” McCoullough and Sheldon “Pearhead” Hanby. Although Juan is a sure thing, Asinette decides to give Sheldon a try because her scientific mind just can’t wait to see how that pear head breeds.

Carmen Patch arrives to investigate Sheldon’s claim of bugs. She wanders around the entire house looking giving both Sheldon and Ramin plenty of time to chat up the homely exterminator. Sheldon gets a few relationship points, but Ramin is the top scorer, chatting her up for a good long time. That’s enough to get her on the call list and Crespin finds potentially betrothed before he even becomes a child.

Merkin had been something of a golden child as he grew up, being the one that finally reached the true ugly potential. Though all he wants to do is settle down and start a family of his own, the family elders insist he go to college. The Ughburgh service pool has turned up disappointingly male and/or attractive.
(more…)

Merkin visited Maerie at college one evening and came to the horrible realization that no amount of garish makeup or cheesy hairstyles would transform his only child into anything other than exotic looking woman with extremely high cheekbones. Crushed by disappointment, he headed back to Ugburgh knowing he had to do something.

D’Argo and Shannon purchase a few meager furnishings for their house and are left with a whopping six Simoleons to their name. Shannon really wants to boost her creativity, but they can’t afford to buy any art supplies. So the two head out to the Desert Lounge where Shannon jams on the bass while D’Argo works at the bar to bring in some spare cash.

D’Argo makes short work of seducing his professor Margaret Howe and makes Dean’s List. In fact that semester would turn out to be the last time D’Argo ever did an assignment, or anything besides show up for class. Eventually the relationship between him and Shannon grows, and he adds another love to his list. He’s just warming up though, because his goal is 20.

D’argo puts off getting a job as he is far too busy making time with the various delivery girls and old college flames. He scores his fifth service Sim in the form of Marylena Hamilton and then decides its time to put the moves on Maerie. She proves to be stubbornly infertile which leads Merkin to act.

Merkin smoothes things over with Rosemarie and invites her to move in. She’s a romance Sim, of course. That doesn’t stop Merkin from immediately impregnating her and forcing her to marry him so the child can have his last name. Little Angarina enters the world and her mother promptly goes off the deep end. Not really having the time to deal with a crazy wife, Merkin sends her packing to a nice little condo on the other side of town. He has Shannon, newly graduated from college, move in along with her to make sure she’s settled.

Richriel and his cheekbones of doooooom!

Things plod along joylessly at the Fugleigh household (that, incidentally, is now a new lot thanks to the old lot crashing after the NLupgrade), with the exception of über happy man ho D’argo. His job is to maintain all his cheap affairs just high enough to keep the phone from ringing off the hook and fulfill the friend quota for Maerie’s jobs. Speaking of Maerie, she gets demoted again and must switch to yet another lab to get back up to Inventor. She is no closer to mad scientist that before.
