Keys 2: 1.1: Then This Happens

 Soooo.... I think I lost the last Keys save. I'll check my backup later, but I'm doing this cuz I wanna.

Here is a list of Da Rulz for reference.


This version will star...

Wait, no. (And I swear it's not who it resembles!)

This guy! And he has a thrilling name, too. Oh, it's absolutely brilliant! Wait'll ya hear this one!

Travis.

Yes, folks, say hello to Travis!
(pauses)
Say hi, Travis!

Travis: silence 

Ooookay.

Dude: We are random sims. You have the same hair as me.

Lady (sighs): Yes. I see that you have the same hairstyle as I.

As per Da Rulz, I deleted all the starter families. Get ready for the random generator to create sims with the strange variety of custom skins and hair... oh, and to give them all pink and blue hair. (although so far I haven't seen too many weird ones)

Travis: Could we get back to me, please?

Geez, Travis. Self-centered much? I mean, it's not like the world revolves around you, ya know.
Oh wait, it kinda does. Still, you're such a snob.

Anyhoot, I picked the culinary career path for him, and he doesn't own a bar (to practice making drinks like he's supposed to). Off he goes to the nearby watering hole to do a hostile takeover on the bar. *scowl* He doesn't make any money doing this. (Sims 3 was better.)

Life is kinda dull, tbh.

Then this happens. Woo!

Travis gets a phone call.

Travis: My uncle left me an inheritance! Yes!

Then.... this happens...

Travis: That sonofabitch!

I send him out looking for love. Let's just say that none of it was pic-worthy.

Then, this happens...

That dumb thing-that-thinks-it's-cute-but-actually-is-creepy-af thing sets his stove on fire after barging into his house uninvited (and can't get him to bugger off). The stove, fridge, and bed burn up. I use the money to get a new stove and fridge, but I don't notice the bed burned up 'til later.

Let's just say... Travis needs money.

Travis: And those "upgraded" appliances are still crap.

Okay, okay. Let's try a different approach to finding a bride.

Travis: I have an idea.

Travis... buddy.... whatcha doin'?

Travis: Shh.

I shush.

Travis: Turns out my uncle set me up some options.

Huh?

Lady in almost-a-clown-costume: Hiiiii! You must be Travis?

Travis: *smiles*

Arranged marriage? Really? Is that what you're doing? And you chose to meet her at a bar for the first time?

They work on getting to know one another.

Hitomi: Okay, let's get real for a moment. My father and your uncle set this up. Frankly, I don't care either way.
Travis: Works for me.

But, but.... Romance! Passion! What about those things?

Travis: This makes the most sense.

*awkward kiss*
That was fast.

It's only now that I noticed the bed was burnt up. I got them separate beds because a double wouldn't work with this layout... not if two sims wanna use it. But that works for the "I don't really know you yet" thing.

Hitomi enters the education career path.

--------------
It's only as I'm writing this that I realized that I could've entered CAS and moved her into the family and had them be married that way, but idk if that would've worked for the "quest" thing.

More to come later... probably.
