Growing Sims

I had at least 5 students in dorms at Academie le Tour and more teenagers to arrive...  So it was time to deal with some of them.

Jan, son of Dan - I made her drop out and she joined her parents back home and even helped out in Dan's bookshop (now rank 5) until she got a career in the Adventurer field.  She's now a multiregional Sim of some question, whatever the hell that means.

JP's daughter, Monique was in the same dorm as Harriett Danaher.  Harriett studied Drama and Monique studied Philosophy.

It took me a whole day to get them from freshmen to graduation.  But then I did also make improvements to the library and student centre (previously boring) and added a skating rink to Academy Park.

There were a couple of invisibly black people in the dorm - a glitch?  There was no detail at all - just an outline.  They 'appeared' later.

Some of the students in the dorm have been there since Mellon Collie went there - people such as Erik Fairchild, Nicholas Baena and Greg and Luc Langerak (Luc, I found later from his memories, had inherited money from Mellon).  I'll aim to marry off some of them to get them out of their immortal lives at uni.

Monique loved the novelty that was snow (I just installed Seasons).

She and Harriett, between them, completed an evil snowman.

A penguin later talked to it.

Harriett and Monique took a turn on the newly installed ice skating rink.

They were becoming good friends.

Monique was also getting friendly with Greg Langerak and had her wish for a first kiss fulfilled.

Harriett, meanwhile, had her eye on Luc Langerak but he didn't seem that interested.  She was upset when he rejected her attempt at a first kiss.

Before she knew it, Monique found Greg on his knee.

Monique accepted. 

Monique and Harriett wanted to get their own place, so they moved out of the dorm and moved into separate flats on the same property that, with a bit of extra building, became linked with a communal room in the middle.  Once settled, the girls invited their fiance/boyfriend around and they moved in.

With a bit of persuasion, Harriett finally got her first kiss.

Harriett and Luc slept in the bedroom of what used to be one apartment and Monique and Greg took the other bedroom.

Luc's preferences in females was for hatted redheads, so we soon changed that to brunettes with makeup.  Before she knew it:

The Langerak boys don't appear to be related but, and this is the weird thing, on Greg's memories he has a bit before he met the girls, that Luc became part of the family.... Dunno.  Anyway we can pretend they're brothers or cousins because they certainly look alike (apart from hair colour).

Somehow summer got missed and before long it was winter again.  This time the girls took their fiances skating.

Finally the girls graduated.  They moved out and the boys dropped out and followed suit.

Monique and Greg are living in Gunther Bachman's old place (which before that was her father and grandfather's place) and Harriett and Luc are across the road in a new house.

That just leaves Guillaume and Victoria at Academie le Tour and I might just make them drop out.
