House of Trouser, 2.00 part one

I took way too many photos during their time in uni, so even though I cut out a LOT of them, I still had to split this into two parts. Wee!

The kids were all shipped off to uni at once, because ~~Jared was dumb and Bree was super smart~~ it's easier that way.

Jared broke out of the closet in some shiny shiny blue pants, and matching choker.

Bree lost all her fashion sense! Uni is the time for experimentation! Get with it, girl!

Connor just went...weird. I think it's because he likes to go commando, and likes a breeze around his nether regions. Plus, it's possibly easier to shag this way.

Bree is the only one to get a makeover, because she's ~~the prettiest~~ Heir!

They've got majors to help them with their LTWs, so Bree is taking Philosophy, Jared Biology, and Connor Psychology. Connor wants to know how to win the ladies over easiest way possible.

Jared thinks he's still in the running to be heir, and latches on to some fine man candy straight away, in the form of Rodney, one of the dormies. Bree knows he doesn't stand a chance.

But first, he plays the 'getting to know you game'.

...through the couch. And uh, Rodney, that's a REALLY unfortunate place to sit, seeing as Jared's trying to pick you up.

Connor: Why is my dorky older brother having more luck at picking up than me???

And what the hell is wrong with his finger??

Bree needed a more grown up look, now she was in uni. That, and the game changed her hair to something horrid for reasons unknown to me. I like this one much better.

Bree: I look like a tramp!
Me: But a HOT one!

All study and no play makes Bree very boring and lacking future babies. Out of the dormies on offer, she finds Ira very appealing. It could be the way he's lecturing his book. She likes them smart.

Jared is much smoother than either of the other two, and succeeds at getting Rodney into bed on their first day at uni.

Rodney: Will you love me forever? Do you need me? Will you never leave me? Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?

Jared: Uh, yeah sure. Now, will you put out?

Meanwhile, Connor's getting to know the other dormies over a few drinks (invisible cups are all the rage this year), including Armando Rossi (the mascot), who his mother slept with, many years ago.

Poor Robin couldn't make it to the toilet, and peed herself in front of everyone else. It turns out that being in the Secret Society gives you some special talents, as she peed under Connor's feet, hoping that everyone else would think it was him.

Uh...huh...

Connor, however, made it to the toilet (JUST), but he took his drink with him. This makes it a bit awkward when trying to read the paper.

See?

Ira: So, loser gets tied up?

Bree: What is with these lousy dating rituals? I mean, seriously? Can't we just get drunk and end up in bed? That's how they do it on tv! This is so primitive!

Ah shuddup, it works!

Connor: So, how are things with you?
Rodney: Fantastic! I've found the love of my life already, and uni has just started! We've just been upstairs, at it like bunnies! Oh, I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him! His name is Jared, and he is to diefor.
Connor: O_o Dude, T M fucking I!

Bree and Ira had been getting along extremely well, and she wanted to take things further.

Ira, however, wasn't ready for that sort of intimacy.

Bree: *heart breaks*

Bree: *facepalm* I can't believe I just put myself out there like that! I need to go read How To Get A Man again.

Bree: NO! Wait! I'm hot, I'm heir, you're totally going to get a starring role and will get out of this dorm of eternal youth if you start getting it on with me.

*stomps off and leaves Ira confused*

Connor tries a different approach with chatting up the womens.

This is a Connor Eye View of what he sees during this chat.

It doesn't work. She still doesn't like him.

Dude, she's a freaking pillow at that angle! She's not so ugly she has to hide her face so you'll talk to her!

Apparently Bree's little tantrum made Ira see things in a new light, and he creeps into her room so he can sleep in her bed that night.

She doesn't mind. It just means she's winning.

Ira couldn't bear it any more, sleeping next to her, hearing her delicate snores, listening to her mutter and mumble in her sleep was just so hot.

The farting, not so much, but he was willing to put up with it, especially after he thought about what she offered. He came swaggering back.

Ira: So, about that deal you proposed...wanna get it on?

Aww, first kiss.

Ira has definitely come around to her way of thinking.

She's happy to seal the deal before he changes his mind.

Jared and Rodney bond over pancakes.

Rodney: So I think we should have a big house, with a big yard, so that there's plenty of space for all the kids we're going to adpot.
Jared: I really hope he puts out again soon.

Hey there Bree, what ya doing?

Oh, hey Ira. How did you know that Bree was naked in bed? You were downstairs!

Bree: If you be the warden, I'll be the naughty~~dolphin~~ prisoner!

Ira: *is confused for a moment*

Ira: O WAIT! I GET IT!

Apparently, all it takes to fall in love is a bit of role play between the sheets.

Looks like love is sticking around! Or sticking into something, it's hard to tell.

See? Not his bed.

But I have high hopes for him, and Bree doesn't mind. Though him dreaming about her grandmother Brandi Broke is a bit disturbing.

Rock on, Bree!

You are looking fiiiiiine.

awwwwwww :)))

Creepy nanny is creepy. She and nanny #2 keep calling for him and Jared.

He's not impressed.

Uh, hi there transparent Robin. What's up with you? Are you mad because none of the playables want you? They would if you put out!

Connor's high school girl Lyndsay comes over, and she gets right into him. Like, RIGHT into him. That can't feel good.

Uh, hey guys. You're kinda naked on the couch there.

Oh that's a scary face. Especially when it's speared with a plumbbob.

Peeping Tom Cam!

Bree: I do love you a lot,
but my dating skills aren't so hot,
I'd like to be sure that you'll stick around,
that my future husband has been found,
so I can stop hunting for dates
with whom I can procreate,
and get back to focusing on my degree,
so, my lovely Ira, will you marry me?...

Way to be romantic, Bree.

It worked!

Bree: AWESOME! Tick that one off the list!

Bree: Now that's done, I gotta run to class!
Ira: Hu-bu-wa??

Bree: Now he's said yes, I can fall in love!

Little Miss Practical got the engagement out of the way before getting love involved!

Ira: She loves me too? *plusplus*

I got really sick of the dorm, so I moved them out into their own house, which I made just for them.

The first thing they do? They play red hands. And leave Jared out of it.

You may notice I use the same bed a lot. That's because it's only $350, and if you sell it after they slept in it, you get $1150. I don't know why, but I don't argue. It's great for poor sims who may need a cash boost.

Once they're settled in, Bree invites Ira to move in with them ~~to make it easier on me~~ because she loves him.

And Jared gives him a makeover.

Ira, you're cute, but you don't seem that smart.

Emo Jared is Emo.

Jared: Why does her boyfriend get to move in? Why can't mine? WHY DON'T YOU LIKE ME!!?!!

Bree: *teehee* I'm the heir and you're not.

Naked Guy: SHE SAW ME! SHE SAW ME! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!

NG sings: I am the puppet master...

NG: *unf unf unf*
Connor: *obliviously trying to pick up random blonde girl*

Oh Jared, you've got some fine moves there. But the 70's called, and they want their dance moves and their clothes back.

Please don't be lusting for your soon to be brother-in-law!

Bree writes her term paper on the ins and outs of woohooing.

Jared is still trying to take over as heir, and proposes to Rodney, who happily says yes, and whips out a big book of wedding ideas.

*pat pat* you'll be ok.

Don't you be lusting after Ira either!

*headdesk*

Bree will forever hold Ira in her heart. Or her chest cavity, at least.

Just because you're pretty, and heir, doesn't mean you can still be creepy.

O_o

That is SO wrong to be thinking about that while your brother is bending over.

Connor: OMG MY SISTER Is NAKED WHILE SHE'S IN THE BATH! THE HORROR!

Connor: SHE TOTALLY LOOKS LIKE JARED WHEN SHE'S NAKED!!

Connor: *wanders off to the other bathroom* OMG MY BROTHER IS NAKED!

Connor: *glarepoutstomp*

He went back and forth between the tubs the entire time they were bathing.

That's not Jared. You think he'd be able to tell after all this - he'd been looking at them both naked for long enough!

Connor needed some better luck with the ladies, so he decided to rent one for the night.

Connor: Oooh! Shiny Shiny!

Why, hey there Andrea Hogan! You would've dated Ursual, except you don't swing that way.

Connor: Yeah, mum went and got married a while ago. You really missed the boat there.

It seems Andrea has found someone more to her tastes.

Jared: You *sob* just don't *sob* under*sob*stand *sob* me!

Even WITH the energisers, he still finds ways to get Emo.

Connor met Marisa Bendett through Andrea, and had a very interesting night out on the town with her.

Oh...okay...

Um...

That looks kinda painful.

Marisa: OMFG WHAT AM I DOING?! THIS FLOOR ISN'T SANITARY!

Marisa: *yawn* That ceiling really needs a clean...I wonder if he'll be done soon...

This is even funnier considering what her job is. Oh, the drama.

And no, I'm not telling you yet.

LOL oops. He was too busy getting busy to go to class or do his homework.

Jared: You are my favourite sister.
Bree: Aww tha- hey! I'm your ONLY sister! Jerkface!

Jared: But I still love you! Hug me! Love me!
Bree: Ew, no! I don't think I'm ready for that kind of familial intimacy!

I think she's a lot like her not-father. He wouldn't hug Jared either. No wonder he's so emo!

Connor tries to win over Professor Rosemary Mellon (perhaps some relative of his father?), but she really doesn't like the school cheer. I guess that's because she's been around the uni forEVER and is really, really sick of it.

Naked Guy who really wants to do the Conga: *I'm dancing for Jared, I'm dancing for Jared*
Ira: Yo, dude. Imma gonna pound on you unless you shake it out of here!
Bree: That looks like a penis...only smaller.

Bree: MY FANCY LEARNINGS ARE NOT HELPING ME FIGURE OUT HOW TO COOK WHEN THE FOOD I WANT TO COOK IS IN THE WAY.

Creepy...

And creepier. I think Connor just wanted to make sure that he'd seen everyone naked.

You might find that easier if you LIFT the lid first.

Jared was cooling on the idea of becoming Captain Hero, and made the switch to hair dresser. To get some practice, he started giving makeovers to the random walk bys.

He loved it! LOLOLOL!

What's so funny Bree?

She's laughing at the boys on the OTHER side of the wall. That she hadn't seen, just heard. She has super powers!

Ira isn't anywhere near as good as Jared at the makeovers.

Holden: *fake smile* Go team, go! *sob sob*

Jared takes the scissors back, and promises Rodney he'll make him fine. Well, finer.

Uh...that's not quite what we had in mind...

Rodney lets Jared try again, and this time it works. NICE.

Oh no, why is the mean cow crying??

He's discovered what became of the last cow mascot!!

Jared makes the cow see that Llamas are better.

Jared: Whaaat? I'm all about school spirit, man!

Mmm. Pizza. Gotta love that Visit Campus function. I just don't remember if it's a hack or if it comes with the game.

I'll take my cheque for product placement, thanks.

Connor's in the middle of trying to seduce the nice police woman, when this girl turns up, who clearly recognises that the cop isn't a student.

But that doesn't stop her from clucking at Connor weirdly.

And handcuffing him. She brought her own, though he had plenty under the bed.

Connor is clearly enjoying this.

VERY much so.

That dorm they were in was crawling with SS members. Audrey remembers him and thinks he's fine now he's got the blazer on.

Connor: Hey, do you remember that time Robin peed herself?

Ah, so tactful.

Connor eagerly throws himself into the final stage of his initiation.

Back in the homestead, Arcadia's first makeover doesn't go well.

But I LOVE LOVE LOVE this one. I love her. I think she's adorable. Those chubby cheeks are just begging to be pinched. I may just have to bring her into the family later on.

Bree is clever, and built a Clean Bot, something all uni students should have.

Rodney: Isn't Ira totally hot? Let's talk about how hot Ira is. Can I call you Ira??

That obviously floats Jared's boat.

But, uh, what? Rodney is falling in love, and Jared's getting a crush? This is AFTER they're engaged.

You lot are all ass backwards.

LOLOLOLOL.

They all wanted to invite people over, so I thought Jerry and Ursual would like to see how their kids are living. And the first thing they did when they turned up? Started kissing each other.
