Garfunkle Family, Friday, Week 2
Apr. 29th, 2013 10:23 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Okay, I'm way late, but we can't let April pass without some sort of Garfunkle update. And this time, I promise, you get to see the date you really wanted to see last time. :P

Just because, though, we'll start with a picture of Sam and Amanda being romantic. Hey, it's spring, love is in the air, and they desperately need Social.

Carey: Hey Mom? Is it a lack of money that makes us sit out here in the snow in seasonally-inappropriate clothes while skilling?
Amanda: No darling, just a lack of being able to tell when Outerwear is appropriate.

So, while the boys were at school, this happened. Reason why I will never be popular as a Sims Player #1.

Sam: Is the reason you're having me play Sims 3 because I just got a job as an Architect?
Sure, let's go with that. And it just occurred to me I should have gotten Carey a job today too! Shit, it's his LTW and everything. . .

Simon: So, Lucy, she's finally letting us go out on a date!
Lucy: I'm game! Community lot or your place?
Simon: Lucy, you live in an apartment too. Where do you THINK we're going?

In fact, they are going to the Town Beach! Because there's nothing like taking your date to where the waves crash, the wind whispers, and THE SNOW NEVER FUCKING GOES AWAY.

Playing catch in the snow -- muy romantic! (But it was a Want. . .)

Lucy: Who knew taking pictures together could be so much fun?
You're a bit too young to know about the real fun to be had in photo booths.
Lucy: When's the last time a Sim of yours woohooed in public?
Give Linda time!

. . .Okay, whatever you were doing in there, it wasn't taking pictures. Either that or they've got a really shitty camera setup.

Lucy: Wow -- seeing a guy buying stuff is really hot.
I DO hope those heartfarts are for Simon and not GEORGE. . .

And now we come to one of my main reasons for having them come here -- new outfits! I think this getup fits Simon a lot better, and also prevents me from having the same teen male outfit used twice.

Simon: Do you approve of my new duds, my redheaded angel?
Lucy: Hard to disapprove of anything when you're being such a flatterer.
Simon: Why do you think I'm being so romantic?

And then they start punching each other in the other building. Sim romance, everyone!

Simon: Everybody have fun tonight~
Lucy: Everybody wang--

Photobomb Townie: OH HEY YOU PUT ON THE JUKEBOX GREAT IDEA GREEN SWEATER KID LET'S DANCE

Photobomb Townie: A GIRL'S ARM IS GOING THROUGH MY CHEST THIS IS GREAT

Photobomb Townie: NOW IS TOTALLY THE BEST TIME TO MAKE SILLY FACES WHILE DANCING LIKE A TOOL

Photobomb Townie: Oh. Um. Did you guys want some privacy?
Simon & Lucy: YES FINALLY GOD

With his date having stepped out for a moment, Simon is free from the pressures of having to pretend he's any good at dancing.

Well, Simon, we can officially say you dance like someone's mom.

Lucy: Okay, were you and Mrs. McFly just dancing in sy-
Simon: SQUEEZE HUG FORGET WHAT YOU JUST SAW

Lucy: Backrubs are much better for inducing amnesia.
Simon: So if I rub your shoulders, you'll forget about my lousy dancing?
Lucy: What dancing?

Simon: So, ah, I know we didn't get off to the best start, but -- do you want to go steady?
Lucy: Aw, come on, we both know the whole "hard to fall in love" thing was just a glitch coupled with The Voice Behind The Screen's weak attempts at comedy. Let's do this thing.

Simon: Awesome! I'm gonna go stare at the jukebox now.
Lucy: . . . Or maybe there was something more to that glitch after all.

Foot-popping kiss: Romantic.
Foot-popping kiss in front of your mom: Awkward.
Forgetting that that woman is Lucy's mom for a moment: Just plain dumb.

How every date should end -- watching the waves crash against the shore as one of you builds a sand castle.
I'm not even being that sarcastic. That actually sounds kind of sweet.

Three sand piles and only one sand castle. And you guys are high Creativity? Well, at least you got your Dream Date Simon. Now, time to head back home!

Carey: Thanks for the new outfit, Simon! I really feel like I'm expressing my inner geek!
Well, the star of "Geeks In Love" couldn't look cool forever now, could he?

Obligatory leaving of the giant thing of roses. Into Simon's inventory with you!

Sam: Chess sucks! We should ban it!
But then you'd have nothing to complain about online!
Sam: That's a problem?
It is when your social persists on being so low.

Carey designs a new snowman to replace the half-melted one. I find it incredibly pathetic he can do that. Does his family live in Minnesota or Colorado?!

Obligatory skilling shot! It's not an update from me without one!

Obligatory -- Pleasure Sim being a goof shot? Actually, I don't know why I took this one.

Simon: So, do you think it'll ever be warm again?
Amanda: Probably not, honey.
Yeah, probably -- hang on, did I just see Lucy sneaking by?

Looks like someone's getting a thank-you present for their date!

A FOUNTAIN THAT'S WORTH $5,800 WHAT THE HELL
Well -- buying clothes must have REALLY turned her on. Well, hey, free money! Won't complain about that!
And on that windfall for the Garfunkles, I bid adieu. Expect a Leech update sometime in May! (Probably for the best I don't name any specific dates.)
