Husband Hunting

Welcome to the first post of Generation 2 – the rein of Alexa. Since both Zoe and Buck have fulfilled their lifetime wants, and Alexa is now an adult, it’s time to get going on the second generation of this challenge. Now, I wanted to be careful about this one, since although I had gotten lucky with Buck, I did not want an old man for young Alexa! So, my idea was to invite all the young adult men that the family knew and see what happened. We got the buffet table in preparation, and soon the eligible bachelors started to arrive.

Bachelor #1 turned out to be Michael Newbie. After a few interactions (and checking that he was single) it was time to move Alexa on to the next contender.

Who turned out to be Reinaldo. Reinaldo engaged Alexa in lots of great automatic talking, so we were both interested.

Until, of course, Reinaldo started doing stuff like this:

Which got him the name “Reinaldo the Inappropriate.” Everyone at the party was talking about how rude he was being, and were getting negative moodlets from him. I have no idea if he was just inappropriate or what, but it was definitely entertaining! Not right for Alexa, but he brought some spice to the party.

Alexa and Michael Newbie talked about it for quite a while, before she decided to move on again to her next suspect.

He turned out to be Michale Weathers, which was great because, apparently, he and Alexa are friends! Like, good friends! So…

He aged up to young adult between the party and when he came over, and aged up in the farmer John outfit (apparently, he and Michael Newbie have the same tailor), and then things got more interesting. I had to have them flirt for a while before she got the romantic interactions, but from there it moved really well because of their pre-existing relationship. There were lots of super cute autonomous romantic interactions, until I directed this:

And then this – just a little step up from the gym bathroom that her parents got married in, which seems appropriate for Gen 2.

The next morning -

Meet Michale Washburne

His traits are: Genius, Lucky, Bookworm…Mean-Spirited and Can’t Stand Art. I’m wondering if the Can’t Stand Art has to do with why they took so long to get it together. Since Alexa is artistic and all.

Of course, his LTW is heartbreaker. Which I’m changing. He is currently in the medical career, so we’re saving for a change of LTW, I think. Hopefully he’ll get the doctor one, or more drastic measures might be taken. He’s such a good guy though, I can hardly believe the whole mean-spirited trait! Oh well.

That’s all for today – Gen 2 is about to be on it’s way!

Total Points: Still 10! But we should get right on that portrait painting…
