What Happened In Your Game Today? Sims 2 Edition

If you're familiar with my Sims 4 story, you may be familiar with the name Wangshaft, a noble family that can be traced back through the ages to 2006. They've been rebooted a couple times as I've changed laptops etc. I have no idea how many generations in I am.
Being a family of such prestige, they can't have just any heir. I usually default to firstborn, but this gen had two firstborns; Wilbur and Wilma. Usually only the heir gets to go to university, but I decided to send them both to buy me more time to decide.



Today was the day. They both moved into the same dorm, the typical clapboard, single-bed set up. Both are kind of mean (Wangshaft defining trait...) and Wilbur immediately queued up ways to torment his dormmates. Wilma however feels like she might be biding her time, evil-genius style.




As an aside, this is a new uni 'hood and I hadn't fixed the imposters yet. They seemed to notice. I felt called out.

Welcome to today's instalment of 'Snuffy talking to herself'.

We left off in the dead of night with Wilbur dead on the lawn, waiting for his twin sister Wilma to return from wherever-the-heck she'd gone.
She turns up in the small hours in just her nightdress and immediately spots something new.



Being in direct competition for a vast fortune, she and Wilbur were not really close, but she seemed genuinely upset.



After a whole five seconds of mourning, Wilma stopped and took a breath. This is how I imagine her thought process went.



Fortunately, the twins were in possession of a special object that was acquired by their grandmother during her university days.



Every other time I've used it I've whacked the bribe amount to max to guarantee that Grim returns the sim exactly as they died. I did that again and hit confirm, forgetting that Wilma had been unable to secure any scholarships and had only a couple of grand on her.

That Grim Reaper clearly has a huge mortgage. Two grand is not enough.



So now Wilbur is a zombie. He lost the few pitiful skill points he'd gained in his short life. Despite being dead for only an hour, his flesh is rotten and he constantly stinks. Other than that, he seems fine.

ellupelluellu ooh I love the gloomy skybox you've got for Elsewhere. That was my main hood too until recently when I ran out of room. Now most of my Sims have moved to City of Carnen, which is a slow WIP.

My founder sims are all in UNI still.



Only 2 sims live in E yet.. owner of community garden and cemetery. As those only need to be owned for OFB functions, not for business reasons, so their owners aren't really playable, more like my own NPC.

Everything else will be owned businesses, by active sims.



Also added this small apartment area

Sunset from Balcony

University

Thanks, I have that pack as well. I really need to get back to playing Sims 2 again
