Amber’s Party

September 9, 2009

Amber leaves work the next night with a promotion. Now, instead of a fan, she is a Roadie, but she doesn’t seem to be too much happier about it. Being the domineering sim that she is, I guess that becoming the slaves of people she wants to be like isn’t her idea of fun. Well, she shall have her day when she becomes a rock star.

Amber immediately rolls up a want to have a formal party, and because she has the next day off, I decided to let her have that party the following afternoon. (Sorry, I’ll have to jump around a little for lack of screenshots)

She stands in her party, looking shy for the first time…ever.

That is, until she spots a gate-crasher, who suddenly decides it would be a good idea to take Amber’s guitar with the apparent intention of playing it.

When she’s gotten him to put her guitar down and her anger subsides, she’s decided that she would scream “Woo!” at him.

They seemed to hit it off after that, and Amber thinks that maybe this is her first shot at a boyfriend in this hick town.

Somebody moves fast…and somebody is married! Still, Amber pursues him and decides that no one can resist her flirty ways. She rolls up a couple wants to kiss him, to flirt with him…

Poor guy.

Julia arrived a couple minutes after the pizza did, and it was then that I realized that this party hadn’t been cleared with her. Julia was clearly wondering why all these people were in her house, why Amber was dancing like a wild woman, and why Zelda Mae was putting on a semi-concert in the yard. Everyone’s faces dashed through her thoughts, as she stood there, observing.

Used to her sister’s spur-of-the-moment ways, Julia settles down to read a book while Amber deals with the issues of her guests.

It takes her two hours and several shaken fingers to get her Virtuoso mother, Grace, to put down her guitar. By that time, all the guests are leaving, raving about how great this party was, and that people will be talking about it for a long time.

Their parents, however, don’t seem to be getting the hint.

Robert makes several trips to his daughters’ kitchen and eats what I would think would be the entire content of their fridge. He doesn’t seem to mind that he’s left plates all over their floor.

Finally, the parents leave, leaving Amber and poor Julia to the mess.

 

*Hey, guys! I’m sorry this post was so crappy. The next post can be expected tomorrow and will finish off the night. After that, they’ll have more of a story-line to them. Thanks for bearing with me!*
