College Household: Round Three

Previously, Natasha started college. The shy and serious girl loved spending her time studying, but found dorm life a little bewildering. She did take a shine to one of her dormies, Oliver. But who cares about any of that, when the extremely exciting event of Natasha becoming a witch occured? Everything that could be done the magical way, was done so.

This has turned out to be another very eventful round, hence the length. Please let me know if having this many images in the one story makes it too slow to load for you, and I will split future long posts.

memories - grew up well Austin and his friends Kea and Candice have started college, and move into the University Residential Halls. It turns out that Austin is the only male living in the dorm now, which, as a straight male, would be fantastic, if only he weren't committed to Shannon back home. Distance and newly developed age gaps may make it impossible to go steady still, but Austin remembers how good they were together and hopes to rekindle it one day. The girls are both romance sims, and as bisexuals, look upon their dormies with delight, until they come to the realisations that maintaining multiple romances will be trickier when the person in question lives down the hall.

First order of business is to declare majors. Austin and Candice both have their hearts set on a particular career, so choosing a major is fairly straight forward for them. Kea is more interested in having many lovers during her life, and would prefer to focus on this at college. She decides to major in philosophy, as it will keep her options open.

Second order of business is to check out the nightclub in town, Psychadelic. Austin begins making some new college friends.
 While in the dorm library, Austin spots a familiar face working on her term paper. Sure he's seen her before, he approaches her, and asks her if she comes from Lakeview Village. It turns out that the face is Natasha Freeman, who used to live next to Austin. Natasha, being the quiet one, saw the Bensons come and go from time to time, but didn't really mingle with her neighbours much.
 Austin draws Natasha into a game of chess, and they soon become friends. The next day, Natasha finds a pretty girl in trendy clothes approaching her. This type had always avoided her, so Natasha is slightly suspicious. Her suspicions soon fade, as the girl introduces herself as Candice, and explains how her friend Austin was excited about having another Lakeview person was staying in the dorm. Candice is loving the cute guys on campus, but she is relatively inexperienced when it comes to matters of the heart. Taking the plunge, she invites Vince Davison on a date downtown. The date goes swimmingly, as Candi has her first kiss. Soon the pair often go on dates together. They enjoy things such as playing cards... ... and, er... playing pool. Kea is also keen to begin gaining a few notches on her belt, and invites David Barakat to dinner. The date goes ok, but it's nothing special. The next date is much better, and Kea has her first kiss. In fact, a couple of dates later, the pair are in love. Eager to consumate their feelings, they don't bother waiting to get home, and Kea proudly has her first woohoo in a photo booth!

Already she yearns to experience this sort of thing with someone else, and has her eye on a couple of other cuties. Austin is busy making friends with a lot of cool sims around campus. Ever the jock, he likes to play ball games on the front lawn. Austin and Candice are mindful of their ambitions for their future careers, and make sure they maintain high GPAs, and develop their job skills. Assignments may be effective ways of gaining marks, but the social Austin prefers group research in the dorm's library. Candice always makes time to indulge in her gaming hobby after her studies. Now that they are friends, Natasha confides some of her worries to Austin. She is getting good grades, and developing lots of skills, but to advance in her chosen career, she will also needs plenty of friends and connections. Austin gets very animated on the subject of making friends. Austin sets to work at once. The next day when Natasha arrives home from class, Austin calls her into the rec room. He has invited some of his friends from their hometown for a sports party. Natasha isn't really into sports, or parties, but she knows she needs to make friends, so starts hanging out with some of the other guests. It's nearing finals time, but Kea would rather spend her time snoozing than studying. All four make the deans list for the semester, including Kea, who hardly studied at all. She's rather chuffed, and thinks that college will work out quite well for her. To celebrate, Candice invites Vince on another date. After dinner, she invites him back to the dorm, and has her first woohoo. Candice may be happy to date the same guy, but Kea would rather meet different people. She invites Orlando Miceli for a drink. Encouraged by her girlfriends, Natasha takes the plunge, and invites Oliver on an actual date. Still unused to the socialising, things are a bit awkward, and while Oliver has the signs of crushing on her, Natasha would rather be at home studying! A bit of practice, and some daggy activities such as bowling, make things more comfortable between them. As Natasha shares her first kiss with Oliver, they fall in love. Oliver is so smitten, he already wants to get engaged. Soon, Tash invites Oliver back to her dorm to spend the night. Rather than caring about classes, Kea focuses on her artwork, and practicing her romance techniques. They seem to work with Orlando.

Perhaps too well. He's ready to marry her, but Kea is most decidedly NOT ready to marry him. Well, maybe just a little, but really, NO. The relationship relaxes a little bit after this date. Natasha may work hard on her term papers, but Candice has found an even better way of getting good grades: cheat! She convinces other students to write her assignments for her. Easy marks! Austin is hosting parties, and making friends with a lot of other people, including a few sporty types. He has so many friends, that he's now a Big Sim on Campus. It's a lot of fun to get a bunch of people together to hang out. One night, Austin is accosted by a strange girl making some strange gestures at him. He begins to get rather alarmed when she handcuffs him and leads him to a stretch limosine outside the dorms. They drive a little way off campus, and arrive at an imposing mansion. Getting out of the limo, Austin is dressed in a suit, and greeted by many of his friends, who explain that the rumours of a secret society at USimCity are indeed correct. They induct him into the Landgrabb society, and teach him the secret handshake. After that there is a lot of milling around and socialising. Austin would love to set up a greek house, as greek life is virtually non-existent on campus. He has saved up a bit of money from his college grants, but still needs a bit extra. Austin discusses this idea with the other Landgrabb members. They love the idea, and foot the rest of the bill for a beautiful tudor style house, which will become the greek house. Austin gets in touch with the Hoh Annya Oresha fraternity, and purchases a charter. He and his friends from the dorm move into the new house. Together, they have so many friends that the house is already a high ranking house. The house keeps a steady stream of pledges, mainly because they are so useful. Here is Oliver doing the cleaning. Austin one-ups Candi's habit of getting others to do her assignments, and convinces his professor to write his term paper for her class! Not to be outdone on the minimal study stakes, Kea invites her professer on a date. Her smitten professer turns a blind eye to Kea's shoddy work, and gives her top marks in her class anyway. It's a lot of fun being in a greek house, and for Austin, also being in a secret society. They go on outings with their friends. Not naturally being an active type, but still yearning for a career in sports (AN: yeah, LTWs don't always make sense...), Candi tags along with Austin when he goes out with his football friends for practice. She picks up a few pointers from them, and thinks that maybe one day she can play soccer professionally. The greek house is always teeming with action. They host some awesome toga parties... ... and some toga dinner parties... ... and generic toga get togethers.

(AN: I just had a lot of cool pics to put here) Campus icons, such as one of the mascots and the streaker often drop by at their parties. Someone is always able to bring a pizza over. Between that, and getting the pledges to do their housework, meals are never a problem. Eager to rack up some stage time, Austin enjoys leading a band at the campus pub, The Scholars' Arms Between his study and skill building, Austin likes to sit down and watch the game. Candi wants to get super-dooper fit for her future athletics career. She spends time each morning working out. It's a fairly arduous task for a naturally lazy sim like her. At least there are always pledges to do the assignments, although sometimes they can be tricky to convince. Nevertheless, there's always time for some hardcore gaming! It's just as well the pledges can do her coursework, or she'd never have enough time to see her boy Vince, or develop a new romance with Brandon Lillard. Kea keeps right on with dating many new people. Being a creative type, she woos one of her lovers with her sweet voice during an open mike session at the Cozy Couch Cafe. Not all is bliss with Natasha and Oliver unfortunately. The evil mascot turns up to the house uninvited, and flirts Oliver. Rationally, Tash knows that in was the mascot who initiated it, but she is absolutely furious that Oliver even accepted his attentions. Poor Tash is absolutely miserable. In spite of this, Natasha still longs to continue her relationship with Oliver, and works on rekindling the trust.

AN: It's awesome when a curveball like this comes along, and both the player and the sim want to get things back on track :-) Much quality time later, the two are back on. Kea keeps up with her many dates about the town. One night she has some terrible luck. As she is smoozing up to her newest toy, David Barakat spots them, and is furious with her! Orlando spots David's fury, and notices that all is not right with his supossed relationship with Kea.

Kea calls her date quits, and goes home to make many grovelling phone calls to try to get things right with all of her boys. None of this suggests to Kea that she should tone down her romantic activities. Far from it, Kea moves onto her other professor, simply remembering to keep her dates in private. Natasha has her final exam, and graduates summa cum laude. She could go straight home, but she elects to stick around campus briefly, as she still wishes to use the opportunity to make friends. She is relatively successful at this task, as she is inducted into the secret society. Oliver is also a member, it turns out. Austin continues to play social secretary to the Landgrabb society, and organise outings down at the pub. Some members of the group can be quite strange on their outings, and study instead! Even the streaker can't distract them. Kea too is inducted into the Langrabb Society. It seems that they really take their investment in HAO quite seriously. It is now time for Natasha to leave college. It's been quite an experience, but she's looking forward to settling down at home again, and starting up her career.
