1-6 // Even More Awkward Dates

One can never have enough of those, apparently. So we've seen what Masaru and Viola got up to on Spooky Day. But do you really think the resident social butterfly was going to just stay at home all day on a holiday? Skylar scheduled a party at the festival grounds and invited as many people as he possibly could. Which, as a note, was nowhere even close to everyone he knew. He knows a lot of people. Including Astrid Pertridge-Anderson, who continues to stalk my sims despite now having a husband she could be spending time with. On a side note, with the Nraas story progression, everyone who gets married picks up a double surname. Which is kinda cool sometimes, but I gotta ask - what happens when their kids start getting married? Will I be getting quadruple surnames?

I'm keeping it. Is that cheaty? The game kinda gave it to me, in a way, and it's not like it's giving me an advantage or anything. And then when Ciera changed out of her sleepwear, I got... That.

With a baby now draining their already dwindling bank account, Masaru put his foot down and set out to get some darn tips once and for all. The problem, he figured, is that nobody was hearing him when he played. He'd simply have to find new, creative ways to attract a crowd to him. And so began Masaru Fujioka's quest for tips. Idea #1: Protest Protests generally attract crowds, because sims like to complain about things. Complaining is, in fact, one of their greatest skills. But there were no protests actually going on at the time, so Masaru improvised and called for one about some random subject he didn't actually care about. What'd the Loch Ness Monster ever do to you? D: Regardless, apparently Nessie is incredibly unpopular with the population of Hidden Springs. Masaru's protest did, in fact draw a crowd. Unfortunately for Masaru, they got too passionate about their hatred for poor Nessie to notice when he slipped away to start playing guitar. The pro
