College Life

Dear Mama, I hope and Tom are doing fine.


I took your advice and went downtown with my stalker, Xavier one night. He was nice, but he just wasn't Nolan.


The bartender at the club has some of the longest hair. I wonder if it ever gets in the drinks. I drank bottled water all night as I was worried about the whole hair issue.


What is your problem with Nolan? I don't understand why you say I should stop seeing him. What did he ever do to you?


I wonder where his mind is on some dates. He has mentioned you at the weirdest times. Why won't you tell me about your history with him. I thought you would be happy that I found such a loving man.


I completed my skills. Where is the reward you spoke of?


I'm happy to announce that I am now engaged to Nolan. I was so excited when he agreed to marry me.


I got the 'package' you sent me total. Hmmph. Why would you EVER agree to this? Fine then, I will have an affair if it kills me. Nolan is so worth it. I just hope my heiress is the only child I have to have from the affair. Why didn't you tell me earlier about the contract???


Just because I have to have an bastardette from an affair, I REFUSE to get rid of Nolan. Is that what happened to you? Did you have someone that you could not do that to? Was Tom the second choice? Who was the first?


Just another night that Nolan and I celebrated our love. I still want to know who your first choice was. Why won't you tell me? What is the big deal?


Here is one of my annoying dorm mates. She is rude enough to drive me bonkers!!


Off to my final exam of my senior year. Boy the time has flown past!


I GRADUATED!! WOOT!! My brothers are on the never ending plan...who knows if they will EVER graduate?


Nolan graduated also and came over to celebrate with me.


Time's up at the dorm! See you soon!
Love ya! Penny

Dear Mama....

Dear Mama, I am proud to say I have finished my freshman year at College. Life surely was different not living with you and Tom.

Here is the campus map to show you were I live and how far away my brothers are from me. I'm sorry you were sick and were unable to visit me at my dorm. Why again couldn't I move to a larger dorm?


This is me on my first day at the dorm. This seems like such a long time again when it was only two semesters.


I invited your friend Nolan over. He was more than happy to show me around campus and introduce me to everyone. I guess you forgot how I met him one afternoon when I was younger.


My brothers live in off-campus housing. Why did I have to move to the dorm? Why couldn't I stay with them? Peter, of course, is always talking about classes.


Phil already found a girlfriend, her name is Tricia. I don't know how serious he is about her since he told me he wants to leave a legacy of some sort here with lovers or something like that.


Was this one of your Professors? His name is Professor Adrian. He thinks everything I tell him is funny or something.

Would you believe he actually played catch with me until after dark one night?

I did manage to get into your old Greek house when I met Mitch and Max. They said I remind them of you. How well did you know them?


Oh - I have a STALKER! Xavier, your downtown friend, stalks me on a dialy basis. I think I need to tell the boys so they will take care of him.


Here I am one night playing chess with a dorm mate. He thinks I was right to protest the 'Rights of a Heiress' also.


Just like you told me, I am finishing up my last skill of body points. When will I be rewarded for all this work and no play???


I have found the best place to hang out is in my bedroom. Nolan has become on of my closest friends around campus. He even said he will take care of stalker Xavier if I want him to.


I've been saving all my money to build this nice little greenhouse on the side of my dorm. My dorm mates don't seem interested in it though.


The money trees were a great gift. Thank you. I would not have finished the greenhouse in time if it wasn't for them.


Here I am on my way to my final exam to finish out my freshman year! When will I get that letter you promised about the 'deal' you made? I still am unsure why you didn't want to tell me yet.


Oh by the way, I got my FIRST KISS!!! One afternoon in the kitchen, Nolan just grabbed me and made out with me. WOW! So this is what I was missing!! I think he could be the one mama! I think he could be the ONE!!!
Kisses to you and Tom....Penny

The Evidence Is Shown


Looks like you and Penny are becoming the best of pals now.
Why won't you tell me about their 'sperm donor'? I am their father. There is more to being a father than just donating the sperm. Why won't you tell me?


If I wasn't their father, why would I be there for their birthdays? Who is the sperm donor? Tell me...please
Sorry you think you aren't the sperm donor, you must talk to Aston about that. Isn't Penny a pretty child?


Phil has also grown up into a handsome little boy. What is wrong with your belly Aston? Why is it so big?
YOUR FAULT! You told me to let Tom have some and I did and now look at me! I'm HUGE!!!


Tom is totally believing my story now, see here his son Tim also has my skintone like his siblings.
Are we sure this is Tom's kid??
GAWD! Do you ever stop? Let him enjoy his kid!


Hello Penny! Nice to see you are studying hard.
Whatever..you know I am treated differently than my brothers. This isn't fair! They have more freedom than me!
You are the heiress, what did you expect? Plus you aren't treated differently.


Exhibit A - Butterflies! You would have thought I caught them, right? WRONG! My brother Phil did it on one of his 'free will' afternoons. Do I get that? Oh no, not me...Mama says 'I'm the heiress I have to study to max out those skills. Just think of the reward.' WHATEVER!!! More evidence to come!!


How is Tim, Tom?
This is totally different than my other three kids. Don't get me wrong, I love my other kids, but this just feels different than when I held them.


Aww, Tim is a handsome little boy also.
He is, isn't he? His first friend is waiting for him on that chair also. So let me get him on his rabbit to make friends.


Way to go Tom!


Time sure has flown around here, huh? Tim is already a child!
Tom spends all his time with Tim now. He told me the other day that it takes more than a sperm donation to be a father. What did he mean?
And you graduated college? Oh yes, I almost forgot you never went to class and slept your way to get those grades.


Peter has turned out nicely, huh?
I suppose if you are into the studying type. All he cares to do is to study. No interest in girls or anything. He will probably earn his college grades.


EXCUSE ME!! Exhibit B! My brothers are playing chess TOGETHER! Do I get to play chess with anyone else? Oh no! Not the heiress, the heiress isn't allowed to play chess. Mama says 'The heiress must max out each skill before moving to the next skill.'
Do you really want to play with Phil? He cheats....


You turned out to be a real pretty girl. Congrats! I hear you just want to have a family and become Captain Hero or something.
Why wouldn't I be? Don't forget, there are more exhibits to come! We want fairness for the heiress!


Phil didn't turn out that bad either, I suppose.
He only has time late at night to work on his skills. He is too busy off chasing all the teenage girls in skirts! Just like his mom!!


Exhibit C - Look at Peter out there with that Meadow girl! Am I allowed to meet boys and get my first kiss?? Oh no, not the heiress! Mama says 'The heiress will get her first kiss with someone who really matters, not a local trampy townie kid.' Do you see how I am being treated differently???
No, not really but you are entitled to your opinion. That is a funny quote considering how your mom was in college.


Nolan! You brought Nolan around??
Hush! The kids are at school and Tom is at work! I've missed him so much since you FORCED me to marry Tom.
I did not force you...


Exhibit D - I got a cold! Did my brothers get a cold? Oh no, not them.
What did your mom say this time?
Mama says 'This will only make the heiress stronger.' GAWD! I want to have some fun like they do. What else does the heiress have to do???


Peter went off to College late one night. I'm gonna miss my oldest son. It won't be the same around here.
It was time for him to move on, he couldn't stay here forever you know.
You know what this means, right. It means I am getting OLDER!!! ARRGH!!


Exhibit E - I CAUGHT on FIRE!!! Do my brothers get caught on fire?? Oh no, only me. Mama says 'What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.' I'm tired of her explanations.
You can't die! Then this will all end there.
What would end? I'm confused, what would end?
Talk to your mom....


No, I didn't die. Phil came to my rescue while Tim just yelled. Some nice looking fireman was here also. Did you see the man in uniform? RAWR!! Mama says 'A man in uniform is the best type of man.'
Your mom should know....


Phil is also off to College. He said he has done enough around the house and it is time for him to expand his black book and go to college.
He sounds just like you did....


What happened to the puppies?
Those dogs HATE each other! And when I say hate, I mean hate. They fight all the time. Rover ran away for a week to get away from Moofy. When one sleeps, the other stands over it and growls.


My baby boy has grown into a teen now. Being that he has heard from Phil, he is ready to go to all the parties at College.
Sounds like your family has grown up just fine now. Did you tell Penny about her future?
You mean I have to tell her??? Why don't you tell her?
Remember the contract? The contract says you must explain to the heiress her role for the next generation.


So are you ready to venture off to college also?
YES! I have had enough of mama's sayings. She has some 'official document' to show me and then I will be leaving also. Why would she be nervous about showing it to me?
Oh that, she will explain it to you.
~~~~~~~~~~~

On With the Show


How adorable! A cute little boy.
It was supposed to be a girl. I'm supposed to have a girl. What do I do now?
Try again, you must keep popping out kids until the girl shows up.
How long will that take? What if I end up with a houseful of boys? Why can't the boys be the heirs?
The rules are all about a desperate houseWIFE, hot husband.


Professor Kent? Are you sure you want his genes in the family?
Sure, why not? What is wrong with his genes? He isn't that bad looking.
I just hope it goes better this time and you aren't almost caught. Have you slept with Tom yet?
Umm, no but I know what to say to him about it, trust me.


Isn't my son handsome? He looks like me, right?
Umm....Yes, Peter is a handsome little boy, isn't he?


Another dog? You practically ignore the one you have.
Kids need pets. Moofy needs a playmate, plus maybe Moofy and Rover can have puppies.


Looks like the Kent did his job alright.
It has been harder this time. I'm sicker than before.
Gonna tell me how you explain this to Tom?
Well, Tom visited the Simmy Swimmers Bank while in college and made 'donations'. These 'donations' were put in me by our doctor.
HAHA - you think he will believe that? You would have been better off letting him have some fun one night.


Can we talk? Let me put Peter down for a nap. He is mine....right? He has my dark hair and his other features are from Aston. So he HAS to be mine.
How about a little later? I have to go watch my water boil or something. Enjoy playing with Peter. He wants some attention.


Awww, Rover just loves little Peter! Too cute.
See, this is why we got Rover. For the kids!
You already had a dog, you didn't need another.


How is your plan going? Has Tom talked with you? I think he is curious about your pregnancy. He isn't buying it...
Yes, he is. Why would he question me anyway? He LOVES me.
Maybe since your story is so off the wall. Why use his 'donations' when you can get the stuff straight from the source???


AARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!


TWINS!!!
How did I end up with twins? I didn't eat cheesecake!!
Be happy, you have your girl. You can actually sleep with your husband now. It might help him out. Take him on a date and give the poor man something to talk about at work tomorrow.
That is a thought, but not right now, I have bottles to make.


Something isn't right with her story. Using my 'donations'? How did she know which donation was mine? They were supposed to be kept confidential.
Isn't that baby (clueless on who he is holding here) cute? You don't think these are your kids? Of course, they are yours...she is your wife.


Look at the hair...BLONDE! Do I look blonde? Who was she with? Who was in my house getting some while I have been patiently waiting for it? What is wrong with this picture? Show me the tapes!! I know you have tapes!
Can't show you yet, have to go water my fish pond or something. Maybe later...


The twins are darlings! Look at them, both looking like you but with that blonde hair. Where is the blonde hair from?
Kent? Who cares? I got my little heiress right here in my arms.
You need to talk to Tom, he isn't happy at all about this. He is really starting to ask questions.


Happy? I finally let him get his way. All his questions are gone now. He is satisfied again with my decsription.
Dare I ask, how did you convince him this time?
A skimpy little outfit....he stopped with his questions and that was that.


Peter is growing up. Why is Tom looking at him like that?
I told you he has been asking questions lately. Or maybe 3 toddlers in the house was a little much for him.


I heard she finally let you have something the other night.
ME??? Oh no, I don't kiss and tell...not me. Well, there was some action but I still want to chat with you about what YOU know.
I know nothing...time to watch my grass grow.


Did you not use protection?
Go away! Can't you see I'm sick here?

A Place to Call Home


I can't believe the gale of them! They send me here and I think one thing and then BAM! They threw this curve ball at me. For the love of Llamas! Why did I volunteer for this again? Oh yes, I thought I would be a new Legacy starter...GAWD!!
I see you found your new house, is everything to your liking now?
Where is my yellow box house?
You can't afford it yet, it gives you something to look forward to.

Who is this and where is Nolan?
I just couldn't marry him now. I can't have my heiress with him, so I decided to go with Tom. Tom went to Uni with me and used to be my study partner.
Did you tell him about the ad? Is he aware of what is going to happen?
Oh My LLAMA! I don't know all of what will happen with the little twists you like to show me at the LAST MINUTE! How could you expect me to explain it to him?

Looks like all that schooling paid off. I thought you were to be an adventureer or something...
Simheimers, I forgot what it was and guessed.

Poor Tom has no idea what he is agreeing to does he?
He gets me, isn't that enough? He was always around my Greek house.
Poor Tom...he has adored you from afar for four years now.
POOR TOM?? He gets ME!
Poor Tom - choice #2 after you tossed Nolan to the side.

Don't say it! Enjoy the moment...feel the excitement...and by the way, we are a 2 bolt couple and sometimes a 3 bolt.
Poor Tom....

At least you aren't shoving food in his mouth. I suppose you didn't invite Nolan around, huh?
No, it would break his heart to know that you FORCED me to pick Tom over him.
I FORCED YOU? Oh this isn't my fault.

Where is Tom? Why are you still in your formal wear?
Tom had to work today, so I invited my friend Oliver over. The formal wear? Oh that, well Tom had to study for work last night so there was no fun on the honeymoon night for us.
Are you telling me that the house wasn't knockin' last night?
That is what I said right? Maybe he will get lucky tonight.

YOUR FAULT!
I'm not the one on the bed with Oliver, just hurry up before Tom returns are you get busted or something. ***Side note - it took these two THREE times to FINALLY make a baby!!***
What is wrong with that? Practice makes perfect, right??

My husband is home! MY HUSBAND IS HOME! Get out of this bed!! Hurry!!! OMGOMGOMG!! HURRY!!!
Are you trying to get busted or something? You know if you are busted you move to a torture house. It's in that contract you mumble about.

Just a look at Aston's friends. I don't know how, but she wasn't busted I figured she would be.
Not to bad huh? Look at all the HAWT guys that are my friends.

I think you need cooking lessons from that Chef friend of yours. Maybe next time he can show you how to properly use the oven.
HUSH! I had to make Tom's supper for him. Oliver shows me how to cook...
I'm referring to cooking in the kitchen, not the bedroom.

Put your eyes back in your head. You will NOT mess around with him. His name is Vlad and he is married. Plus he is off limits for this challenge.
But, he is such a hawt piece of specimen...
NO! He is out of your league here, friends only!

Did you hear the news? I think our pre-wedding woo-hoo had the right results! Poor Tom, you are so clueless somedays. Is that what she told you?

Big Daddy Tom is estastic!!
Did you finally get some, is that why you are all grins?
Not yet, but I've been pulling all nighters studying for work. We are saving our money for that lovely yellow box house.

I feel sick...what is wrong with me?
Look Tom is moving up the corporate ladder! Aren't you excited?
No, I think I may be pregnant or something...

Why are you upset now? Your thoughts are confirmed as I see the prego pjs you are wearing.
I should have married Nolan you know.
Who cares about Nolan now? You need to figure out how you will explain to Tom the baby when you have yet to give him any.
I have that figured out already, he got some the night before our wedding. See, I've already been thinking about this.

OMG - you got a dog.
I figured since Tom wanted a dog, I would let him have Moofy here. She will help him keep his mind off of the other things. Men seem to have such a one track mind anyway.

Moofy loves Tom, right? Yes, Moofy loves Tom!

I don't think that outfit is maternity wear. Your belly should not pop out of that opening! Get something else to wear, please!!
What is wrong with my belly? Tom loves my belly.
Tom thinks the baby is HIS also. He must not know how to do the math here...numbers don't add up at all....

ARRRGH!!!!!

The Want Ad

WANTED: ONE FEMALE WITH AN OPEN MIND WILLING TO LEAVE A DIFFERENT SORT OF LEGACY. MUST BE WILLING FOR SOME MESSING AROUND. GIRL OFF-SPRING IS REQUIRED. ONE WORD OF ADVICE...JUST DON'T GET CAUGHT!

What made you decide to answer our ad?
So the ad caught my eye, there is nothing wrong with that, is there? I was in limbo anyway, so why not try this out?
Fair enough, tell us about yourself.
My name is Aston Willostan. I am a romantic person who wants to have many lovers, but that might change.


Who is this you are talking to?
This was my first real friend at the dorm, Anna. I know I need to find my husband, but I needed someone to confide in.


Didn't we give you everything you will need to find your husband?
Not exactly, I can't have my future lovers calling on the main phone line. My dorm mates will get curious. And then they will start talking about me. I can't have that.


Who is this guy you are talking to? Is he husband material??
Spencer? Husband material? Oh no, he is around more for my pleasure. A girl needs to have fun, right? He will just be around as a plaything for me.
That's good, I've seen what his kids could look like.


Why aren't you off looking for a husband?
I have a lot of my skills to max out before leaving Univeristy.
Yes, you will have the toughest time here, your kids will have it a little easier.


Why are you bothering me while I am on a date with Spencer? You know I need to work my mojo and get some aspiration points. GO AWAY!
I thought he was a plaything?
GO AWAY I SAID!!


I see your mojo worked just fine with Professor Kent. That has to be why he is wandering around in his underwear.
Yes, I managed to get my grades up quickly with his help.
What about Spencer?
I told you he was just a plaything. He is off probably waiting for my phone call.


And Professor Yvette? You seem to have been busy...
Well, they do help me quickly get the grades up.
Aren't you worried about what your dorm mates will say?
What are they going to say? I used my assets to get ahead. That is what matters, right? They aren't talking about me, are they?


With all the visiting Professors, my grades are soaring. This left me time to play around with my friends.
When do you have time to work on your skills?
I have my ways of getting skills now. They will be taken care of, trust me.


How in the world did this fire happen?
Well, I was at class when it started...
Uh-huh, and where is the sprinkler??
Ok, fine I admit it...I removed it. That chef they gave us was not giving me anymore skills so he had to go!
Giving you skills???
Yes, he was kindly giving me skills and then he stopped. That wrote his death sentence. He had to go, he was not being useful to me anymore.


Another 'friend'?
Why must you say it like that? Nolan is a kind, generous man. He truelly the first person interested in me.
He will be thrown away like the others.
WHAT??? I don't throw them away, they knew I wasn't serious about them.


Collin! Why are you messing with this sweet TSR sim? He did nothing to you.
I met him downtown and he followed me home. How is that my fault?
Followed you home? Like a lost puppy dog?
Something like that. He wanted to give me some skills also.


Collin again? He is around more than the others. You haven't thrown him away yet?
You act like I am using them...that isn't how it is at all.


Where are we at now? This isn't the dorm.
Nope, not the dorm. The whole kill the chef backfired. No new chef ever showed up. That dorm mate who died, why yes, he was replaced. I shall miss 'ole what's his name...the chef wasn't replaced and I couldn't be expected to cook for the whole dorm could I? So I moved off campus. I saw the dorm is gone now.
I had to, you glitched it up with that 'kill the chef' idea of yours.

I thought you were done with the Professors? I thought it was all Nolan?
I needed the help in my studies. Did you hear, others have volunteered to give me skills and the points help out my mojo.
Who volunteered now?


See here nice Doug Abone came by to volunteer.
Leave the TSR people alone. They have served their purpose. They are done with their service, let them reside here in peace.
Well, now they can serve mine. He did volunteer to help me. They all volunteered.


STOP!!!! You are riping his face off!!!
He is fine, trust me. I just need to readjust the settings on this thing. It was just a little too powerful.


Serious decision time. Stay romantic or changed to something else.
And???
I have decided to let my mojo settle down and found out I'm now into money.


See here, a nice quiet evening with my friends. No mojo action, just friendly chat. What could be better?
I guess they are volunteering now?


I'm not enjoying this less mojo thing. Not at all.
You did have it easy as a romantic. Your needs aren't as easy now.


Back to making friends?
Well, I want to be a adventure person when I graduate, so I need more friends.


Does this mean Nolan will be your husband? You keep bringing him around.
I dunno, my mind is not been made up. He does have some nice genes, just think of what our little girls will look like. They will be the talk of the town.
Hmm...


Time to go work the volunteers, time to go work the volunteers...


It is almost time for you to graduate. This is the time where I tell you the rest of the challenge. You will get married, but your heiress is not from your husband. She has to come from an affair.
Huh? I thought the don't get caught had to do with my previous playthings from here. You didn't mention this before.
That is your twist, your heiress is from an affair. You didn't think it would be that easy now would it? Oops, I think you did.


Anna, can you believe that? I was never made aware of the twist. They should have told me...right? Oh I totally agree, that was just so wrong. What can I do? I can't just quit, that wouldn't look good. I've signed the contract...
What was "just wrong"? The twist? You have got to be kidding. Didn't you read the small print on the contract? It mentions surprises could happen.


This is how I think the best. The more blood I get my brain, the better it works.
What is there to really think about?
H-E-L-L-O-!! I think you know, the whole baby from the affair. That means the heiress will be bastardette!!
That is what will be so much fun, don't you see that?


Why is Max over here and in your bed? He can't be used for the kids either, you must use a service person.
Just one last sample of the goodies.


So you graduated! Who will your husband be?
Why does it matter? I can't have my heiress with him.
You could have other kids with him once you produce the heiress.
Not the same, just not the same. You should have told me the twist sooner.
Why? You were having such a great time and all.
Is there anything else you haven't told me???
