Cerebrus & Cupid Windling Go Greek
With Windling Gables now fairly emtpy I went to play college I bit. I had Dinah graduate and proceeded to pledge in her and Vishnu's replacements in the Greek House.

"Looks like I'm all colleged out."
First I pledged in Cerebrus.

"I dunno, I'm thinking karaoke?"
Of course there was an odd number of people so while I had the rest of the Greek House pair off to start to raise the outing score.

"So, when are we getting to the karaoke?"
I had Cerebrus work on earning some extra money.

"What drink would you like? I can mix up Orphan's Delight, Cow Plant on the Rocks, or Windling Suprise with my own special ingredient!"
Once the score was maxed I had the group sit down for a meal.

"None of these places seem to want us to sit together."
After dinner Cassandra and Gertrude take advantage of an available karaoke machine in an upstairs room.

"Let's get together, yeah, yeah, yeah!"
Meanwhile I had the rest of the party take advantage of the photo booth in the hall.

"Chuku and Valkyrie: Cousins and Friends"

"Gomez and Karna: Brothers and Buds"

"Cerebrus: Drink Mixer and Potential Heir"

"Cassandra and Gertrude: Duet Sisters"
Once that outing was over there were still a few people that were hungry so I had Cerebrus order a pizza for everyone. Unfortunately he ran right into the coach on his way back into the Greek House. That looks bad.

"It's not what it looks like!"
Here is where I started taking pictures of the members of the Greek House every season. It didn't really work out at first because I was having issues with a glitchy Greek House (and glitchy Greek Housers) and so kept moving them out and into fresh copies of the Greek House, this kinda messed up the seasons a lot. So this was the first shot done in Spring.

Greek House: from left to right are Gomez, Gertrude, Valkyrie, Cassandra, Cerebrus, Karna and Chuku.
Next I pledged in Cupid.

"I'm in the mood for some cards and drinks, who's with me?"
Everyone evenly divided up and headed off to Lucky Shack Cards, which was a very dimly and weirdly lit little place.

"So, who's up for a game of chance?"
First I had to get that outing score up. A lot of people were on their way to becoming best friends and doing some pretty crazy antics to get there.

"Check this out!"
I then let them do their own thing as there was no photobooth on the lot.

"So what do you think, Chandra, you want to deal or what? Jess, you in?"
I then had Cupid cook up some hotdogs since people were hungry. The lighting was really, really, weird in that shack.

"Cupid, you won't believe what's happened to your hair!"
And, of course, there was a karaoke machine on the lot so Gertrude spent most of her autonomous time singing her heart out.

"The sun'll come out, tommorrow..."
Points Earned: None.

Wow. I have never been on an outing before...actually there was once, when I got that phone call from Ms. Random Sim asking about an outing...pfft it was horrible! I tried going bowling, but no one will bowl with meh, even if I asked them to join and they all just did their own thing...stupid down townies! At the poker table...who is the red head with persed lips and glasses? He looks...familiar? Hmmm...And btw, what happened when Cerebus ran into the coach? Did she take it or something! EVIL COACH!

Ilse - Yes, Gertrude and Dinah are my two favorite adopteds from this generation. They both are just so cute and sweet!
Melanie - The trick is to realize that an outing is just a party, no relationship boostage, no good score. I would not want to do an outing without being able to control at least half of the Sims, though. I'm pretty sure that's Jess after his makeover. He was an adopted son that caused all sorts of trouble in seventh generation of the last legacy! That card shack was very much his sort of joint.
