ink_sec_simsAnd we're back to EMMETT BROWN, TECHNO-WARLOCK!
Who lives alone, so while he's at work there's a big gap in his day. Damn it.
Well, Carmen should be moving in next update, so have a short update on Doc before we start through the rest of the cycle:
We open on our typical study scene, though at least he's studying for his job in this instance. And he has the fall study bonus.
Emmett: I thought you were going to catch me up to the others season-wise?
When spring comes -- I want the study bonus and I'm sick of Sim snow.
Huh -- you look pretty snazzy, going to your Science Teacher job with the goggles and hat.
Emmett: Think it'll look as good when I make Mad Scientist?
Maybe -- might have to try a different-color hat.
After some Ultra Speed and a chance card that loses him some Arts & Crafts enthusiasm, Emmett comes home with a promotion to Project Leader and the memory of having earned $25,000. Dunno why money would be so important to a warlock who can make the very earth move to his whims (Beautificus Locus), but whatever.
Time to make pottery!
Emmett: I AM STILL ENRAGED OVER GETTING BURGLED.
Tiiime to let it go, dude. You're out of college, and you probably won't ever see the burglar again.
Emmett: And if I do?
I won't let you get too far on the goody-goody side to forget "Heavus Ho?"
Emmett: Acceptable.
Emmett invites Lorraine over for some socializing that will hopefully lead to good, making-things-look-like-canon things.
Lorraine: Digging a hole? Awesome! You go, Mr. Warlock!
Linda: Why are you digging a hole in your own front yard?
Emmett: Searching for treasure. Why are you at my house?
Linda: I'm the friend Mom asked if she could bring over.
Emmett: Really? I thought you were the unfavorite.
Linda: The game likes proving that's not really the case and ruining the jokes.
Linda: Hey, random passerby! Let me tell you about SPACEMEN.
Makoto St. Julien: Pretty, but not legal yet. But I do like spacemen!
Linda: Hey Dad.
George: Hey Linda!
Practically a McFly family reunion around here.
Lorraine and Emmett make friends over red hands while Linda makes the choo choo go round and round. Why are you so addictive, train table?
Uh, Emmett. . .
Emmett: Shush, I'm thinking about how much I hate the fact I was burgled.
Yeah, but you may want to pay attention to what your hands are doing.
Alegra the Stray: I disapprove of your discussion of the culinary hobby.
Emmett: No disapproving! MY HOUSE WAS BURGLED!
Dude, you're turning into that one crazy version of Batman! Give it a rest!
Emmett: I'm sorry, girl (boy?). Sim memories have disturbing lasting power. And I know witches are supposed to prefer cats, but you are a beautiful dog. Can I keep her?
I've yet to get a stray adopted, but if you think you can pull it off. . .
Lorraine: *thinking* Yeesh, so glad we don't have a train table at our house. I think she'd forget to eat.
Hey, so would you -- I saw you playing with it earlier.
Friendship achieved, Emmett sends everyone home so he can brush up on his magical knowledge. I'm trying to keep him at least nominally Good because they get some of the best spells. In my opinion, anyway.
Emmett: Behold what I summon out of the ether!
Yum! And with no fire risk!
Emmett: Always a plus. And now I don't even have to learn cooking!
Yes you do -- not only are you a Knowledge Sim obsessed with skills, it's required for your job.
Emmett: Oh. And they won't accept this as a substitute?
I really don't think so. Now have a slice before you fall asleep on your feet.
And that's it, sadly. But he's got Thursday off, and like I said, I'm moving Carmen in shortly, so don't despair. Next up, hopefully the McFlys will be doing something more interesting.
