Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yo everyone, here's another installment of ATE In TS3!




[x]

So everyone was pretty much indifferent to the arrival of Rika in the previous chapter. She came in, settled down, and has spent a couple of days refining her writing skill in her hopes of being an author.

"It's a dream I can never quite give up on!"





[x]

She ended up sharing the spare bedroom with Cressa, because I can't really keep Cressa and Coline in the same room anymore, nor Jessie and Cressa (for very different reasons). To my complete UNsurprise, they get along like a house on fire! Mainly because Rika's not shy towards talking about Cressa's favourite subject - yes, you all know it by now.

"Hehehehe! I love your hair!"

"FINALLY, someone other than me appreciates my amazing talent and beauty!"

"Why are we in a graveyard~"

"I don't know~"




[x]

Another thing that helps is Flirty Lorika's also not shy to a lot of other things...

"Ohh, so THIS is why we're in a graveyard."

"Shut up and squeeze me!"

"Can do!"





[x]

A LOT of other things.





[x]

Another reason they've ended up spending time together is because Rika's taken a part-time job at the spa to help buffer her finances while she works on her skills. It's better than waitressing, at least!

"Hey, can you get me a discount on those new seaweed facials they're offering?"

"Cressaaaaa, you know if I keep giving you discounts they're gonna fire me!"






[x]

"*censored!*"

"...Oh, well... hehehe. I'll see what I can do. <3"







And now it's time for an experiment. I'm calling everyone home and cranking Free Will up to its fullest. Let's see what happens, shall we?

[NOTE IN HINDSIGHT: What happens next might make more sense if I explain just exactly the position everyone is in relationship-wise. Cressa and Coline - well, they basically hate each other. The only thing that's stopped them from declaring themselves each other's nemesis is my intervention XD Cressa and Rika keep alternating between being Best Friends and Romantic Interests - I like having them make out and then go back to being friends x3 Jessie's Best Friends with everyone and Romantic Interests with Coline, though both other women have flirted with him on a small scale and both Want to kiss him. Jessie Wants to kiss Coline and has never rolled up any Wants for the other two (why is this so realistic? >3>; ), though he WAS apparently attracted to some random redhead (Ruby - more irony and coincidences D8 wtff) in town, which surprised me to no end because I didnt even see them interact but he got the option to Confess Attraction for Ruby when interacting with the others. And Coline, as you know by now, has never rolled up any Wants for Jessie other than to befriend him. She's neutral with Lorika.]





[x]

Coline is the first to act, immediately indulging her neurotic urges by checking the stove.





[x]

She and Jessie then go to watch TV together, as Lorika pulls out a book and gets to work. There's Cressa arriving home. Hi Cressa!

"Free Will, huh? I've been waiting for this day!"

Uh oh >3>;




[x]

"Ahhh, me. Now I'm free to admire you whenever I wish!"

...ROFL. Seriously, she made a beeline for the mirror and didn't detach herself from it for a few hours. LOLZLOLZLOLZ




[x]

Once she detaches herself, it's right on to buttering up Jessie.

"Need a massage, mon cheri? ;3"

"Well, not r- oh, whatever. You give amazing massages."

Note Coline's displeased expression in the background. She still hates Cressa after the flirting escapade last week.




[x]

OMG! Jessie leaps into Cressa's arms! THIS IS A TURN-UP FOR THE BOOKS

You can see Coline immediately snapping off the TV in the background. Uh oooohhhh





[x]

ZOMG ZOMG ZOMG ZOMG

Go Coline!! FINALLY she's standing up and staking a claim on her man! I never would've directed her to be this vicious myself. Her simself has finally snapped!

"I SIK OF UR CRAP! HE IZ MEIN, OKAI?! HANDS OFF, WHORE!"

"Ouch! Why you little-!"




[x]

"What's your problem?! You've never even rolled up a Want for him, unlike me and Lori who've been rolling up left, right and center! How can you charge in like-?!"

"SHUT UP HE IS MEIN AND YOU KNOW IT"

"That's so unfair! You don't have the right to say that when all you've done is treat him like dirt! Why don't we ask Jessie what he thinks of this?"






[x]

...

Jessie?

"Sh, TV."

Um...

"Shh! I'm having enough trouble hearing with these two broads fighting over me right there!"

...Ahh, sims. Sometimes somewhat far from reality >3>; Ehehehe







[x]

OMGOMGOMGOMG I AM SERIOUSLY NOT DOING ANYTHING COLINE JUST JUMPED CRESSA AFTER INSULTING POLITICIANS TO HER FACE

OMGOMGOMG COLINE HAS GONE BERSERK






[x]

YESSSSSS

zomggggg

lmfao *commentary has completely disintegrated*

*tries harder*

"And... and stay out!"

"YOU DIDNT THROW ME OUT, YOU STUPID b***h!"







[x]

God, this is insane. These guys are rolling up Wants to insult and beat each other x___x

"YOUR HUGE BOOBIES ARE ONLY GOOD FOR FEEDING BABIES"

"I THINK YOU'LL FIND MA CHERIE THEY'RE GOOD FOR SEVERAL OTHER THINGS"

After this Coline beat Cressa up again. She's gone berserk, she's gone berserrrrk!







[x]

Where ya goin', Rika?! You're missing all the action!

"Bed."

B-but-! The action!

"Meh."




[x]

C-cressa?!

"Bed."

But-

"Bed."

WTF?? Suddenly she and Lori just... broke away from what they were doing to go to bed!






[x]

Look who got left behind.

"Um... so..."

"Sh, TV."

"I just won two fights over you!"

"Don't care. You never wanted me before anyway."





[x]

J-Jessie?!

"Yup?"

Why... did you just randomly run upstairs to stand in the corner?

"Well, I kind of wanted to get away from Coline. Mainly, though, I just like standing in corners."

....???? Okay this is getting weird, FAST.




[x]

Coline and Jessie proceed in a merry-go-round chase around the second floor of the house. o__o




[x]

Eventually, though, they catch hold of one another.

"Jessie Jessie Jessie Jessie ;3;"





[x]

This is a turning point, people. SHE'S hugging HIM. SHE'S flirting with HIM! He keeps throwing Compliments her way, but she's absolutely assailing him with Romantic interactions!

"Jessie Jessie Jessie Jessie, I'm still not rolling up any Wants for you but it hardly matters because I think it's pretty obvious by now that that that that-"




[x]

"*MWAH*"




[x]

"Hurray, we're official!!! *GLOMP* <3<3"

oooohmygod.

Ohmygod





[x]

And just to prove to you guys I am not making this poop up, here's a screen capture of:

The ever so elusive WANT TO KISS JESSIE YAY WHICH SHE HAS NOW GOTTEN!! Jeeze Coline, girl, you are bloody slow! You had to nearly lose him twice to get your a** in gear?!

"IS NOT MY FAULT ;3; I WERE MAED THIS WAY"




[x]

To clarify, the want is actually very specifically to Make Out with him, while he's still rolling wants to just Kiss her ;o Oh Coline, you're such a secret slut.

"mmmmuupphhuuhmm~ <3"




[x]

And here's Coline indulging her compulsive want to brush her teeth three times in a row which she rolled up upon kissing him. LMFAO. Wasn't it hygienic, Leeny? XD

"He tasted guud ;3; I just... I don't know if I did, too D8 *panic!*"




[x]

How'd she taste, Jay-jay?

"VERY good."

VERY good?

"Very, very good."

So how are you feeling right now?





[x]

"Very, very happy. <3<3"

"Me toos. <3"

"Can has snuggles?"

"Can has <<33"



[x]

And, as the sun rises over the eastern mountains of Riverview, we bid adieu to our young lovers, and our tale.

"WOAH, WHAT?!"

"Hold it RIGHT there!"




[x]

"Man, this is bullshit. In the end I didn't even have a shot at that hot piece of drow a**! I've got the Want to kiss him sitting around in my panel, too! It's like she's the only person in the world impervious to his Rape Magnet, and SHE'S the one he wants!"

"Psh, you get used to the disappointment after a couple of decades. It's SO not the end of the world!"




[x]

"Heeey... that gives me an idea."

"Oooh, I like ideas. What?"





[x]

"*whisperwhisper*"

"Oooh... ooohohohohoho!!! That's GENIUS! That sounds GREAT! God knows I could do with the cheering up!"

"Sister, you're not the only one disappointed here!"

"I SHOULD be spending today working on my skills, but... oh, hell. Let's do it!"

What? What's happening?!





[x]

"As if we'd tell you! Wait for the next installment, nosy!"

Damn it! But I wanna know what happens NOW!!! And... and I don't like the look of those twin evil grins AT ALL...

Sigh, well, you heard the ladies. See you guys next time and hope you enjoyed the unscripted mush and craziness! 8D
