ink_sec_simsOh look, two updates in the same week? It's a miracle! (Or, alternatively, I wanted to get the somewhat more boring families out of the way so I could go back to my favorites.) Anyway, let's check in with the Leeches.
Typical morning for the Leeches -- Kim gets her skill on for Cooking while Lucy practices the violin. Terrence is in the shower.
Terrence's wants either revolve around buying stuff or playing with his daughter. Yup, Lucy is definitely a daddy's girl.
As Lucy heads off for school, the parents indulge in some leftover spaghetti for breakfast. "Well, Terry, I don't know for sure, but I think the bust of St. Wright is a fairly important cultural asset."
Leftovers for breakfast makes Kim think they're running low on food, so it's another trip to the micro-mall to stock up on staples.
Kim also wants to meet someone new, so I go ahead and introduce to to William Van Dort. Dunno why he's in the toy shop -- perhaps Victor wants something new?
Don't even think about it, Will. Nell wouldn't stop at killing you.
Kim's attempts to talk culture fail to impress William.
But he's quite enthusiastic about the subject of Nature. Just be thankful he didn't talk your ear off about the fish business, Kim. (On that note, I FINALLY remembered to rename "Shop Lot" Van Dort Fish. Took me long enough.)
Kimberly wants to buy shiny things -- a bit of a problem, since none of her clothes are particularly compatible. I finally find a simple ring for outerwear that she can show off once winter hits.
What are you laughing at, William? Do you have x-ray vision to see through the curtain? (Actually, that would make you ten times cooler.)
Then again, she was making some awfully goofy faces.
Um, Kim? You can do that sort of shit at home.
Like so. She's watching the "Fetch" movie, if anyone's curious.
The adults take advantage of the quiet to work on skill improvement.
Kimberly: Haha! Terrence, you face looks so funny as you're being mildly electrocuted!
What, she wanted to play a prank.
Terrence: Inner peace. . .balance and serenity. . .not smacking my wife for the joy buzzer trick. . .
Hey, no one was stopping you from retaliating. Also, why did I give you workout clothes that emphasize your (technically non-existent) junk?
Kim, meanwhile is visiting her friend Neil and talking about how scary burglars are. "They'll shoot you! Right here!"
Lucy comes home, and father-daughter bonding commences yet again.
Not that Lucy never talks to her mom. . .
Kimberly: I really really like rats!
. . .she just doesn't want to that often.
We end on Terrence tutoring his daughter in the ways of fitness. It's paid off, actually -- Lucy's gotten another Lazy/Active point, bringing her total up from 2 to 3. I'm hoping to at least make it 4, so expect to see at least one more picture like this.
Okay, that's our apartment dwellers out of the way! Next time, I believe I promised the Turret boys a party of some sort. . .
