Jacob: Hi, I'm Jacob. I'm your neighbor, my roommates and I wanted to welcome you guys. I don't know why this idiot's here.
Ximin: Wow, I've never been more oblivious than I am right now.
꧁༺ Panel 57 ༻꧂
Edward: Well, at least I'm not a cageless mutt.
Bhavya: [Laughs] Wow, he's gonna feel so stupid in a minute.
Jacob: I know, right?
꧁༺ Panel 58 ༻꧂
Ezekiel: What's going on?
Lily: Hi, we're your neighbors. We just wanted to say hi.
Ezekiel: Fuck, I really gotta socialize right now?
Bhavya: Seems like it, bub.
Edward: This house... Astonishing.
꧁༺ Panel 59 ༻꧂
Ximin: Christ, this might be the second best thing I've ever had in my mouth.
꧁༺ Panel 60 ༻꧂
Kwinn: Hey gorgeous, do you work out at a gym?
Jacob: Yeah, are you looking for one?
꧁༺ Panel 61 ༻꧂
Kwinn: I can't help it, he's an entire snack and well, we don't have any food in the house.
꧁༺ Panel 62 ༻꧂
Kwinn: Honey, I'm only looking to be bench pressed by you.
Bhavya: They did not just say that.
Styvie: Unfortunately, I think they did.
꧁༺ Panel 63 ༻꧂
Jett: What the hell!
꧁༺ Panel 64 ༻꧂
Jett: Frickin' bats! No one even noticed, either!
꧁༺ Panel 65 ༻꧂
Bhavya: I was thinking about the mushrooms I found, and I kind of remembered Styvie saying something about gardening. So after everyone left and went to bed, I thought I'd extend an olive branch. Erm, or a mushroom branch?
꧁༺ Panel 66 ༻꧂
Bhavya: Hey, I found a few of these while I was out. I thought you might want to plant them or something.
Styvie: Oh, wow, you're so sweet. You didn't have to do that!
꧁༺ Panel 67 ༻꧂
Styvie: Bhavya is so incredibly thoughtful. She's very sweet, I feel stupid for being so worried about her. Her aura is beautiful, and she's so calm, I think we're gonna be good friends.
꧁༺ Panel 68 ༻꧂
Kwinn: Hello?
꧁༺ Panel 69 ༻꧂
Mr. Thompson: Oh, howdy there, sorry to wake you up.
Kwinn: Holy shit!
꧁༺ Panel 70 ༻꧂
Kwinn: Okay, what the hell is going on here?! Let's be real, psychics don't exist, neither do vampires, and ghosts most certainly do not exist! So what the hell is happening?
Ezekiel: Nah. Nah, man, the spiders... Hell nah, not about.
꧁༺ Panel 37 ༻꧂
Ezekiel: Ghosts, huh... Okay, hey.
꧁༺ Panel 38 ༻꧂
Ezekiel: Hey, uh, did you see that by any chance?
Styvie: The auras? Yeah, I met them last night. Pretty cool, huh!
꧁༺ Panel 39 ༻꧂
Ezekiel: Ghosts, auras, whatever. I'll gladly take those over the damn spiders ughhh.
꧁༺ Panel 40 ༻꧂
Styvie: Ugh, the sun goddess shows no mercy, I've got to get some shade. But please, use the fish money to get you guys some food.
Ximin: I'll come check on you in a minute.
Ezekiel: Thanks. So we've got twenty bucks, we can probably get something and have a few bucks left over...
꧁༺ Panel 41 ༻꧂
[Meanwhile]
꧁༺ Panel 42 ༻꧂
Ximin: Heh, ha... Fuck...
꧁༺ Panel 43 ༻꧂
Styvie: Ah! It's not what it looks like!
Ximin: Hey, uh, no worries! Who am I to get in the way of people's kinks. I'll knock next time.
Styvie: No, no, I'm a vampire!
Ximin: Oh... Sick.
꧁༺ Panel 44 ༻꧂
Ximin: I didn't care, I was like, what am I the kink police? I'm def not the vampire police so who cares. I'mma need a sec to adjust to what I saw, but who cares.
꧁༺ Panel 45 ༻꧂
Ezekiel: Bro, did you really order a cocktail?
Ximin: What? We had five bucks left.
Bhavya: Christ.
꧁༺ Panel 46 ༻꧂
꧁༺ Panel 47 ༻꧂
Kwinn: Ha ha, yeah. Styvie drank that woman's blood.
꧁༺ Panel 48 ༻꧂
Kwinn: YOU DRANK THAT WOMAN'S BLOOD??!!
Styvie: Well, unfortunately, I kind of have to...
꧁༺ Panel 49 ༻꧂
Ximin: Making my way downtown. Walking fast, faces pass and I'm homebound.
Ximin: C'mon Moonwood Mill!
Jett: [laughs]
Ximin: And I need you, and I miss you. Bring it home, Jetski!
꧁༺ Panel 50 ༻꧂
Jett: I saw the guitar in the main room, and I thought it was nice out so I wanted to try playing it. I didn't know Ximin followed me out until he started singing. [Laughs] He's a lot of fun.
꧁༺ Panel 51 ༻꧂
Ximin: Oh, fuck yeah! Jett doesn't know it yet, but we're gonna start a band!
꧁༺ Panel 52 ༻꧂
꧁༺ Panel 53 ༻꧂
꧁༺ Panel 54 ༻꧂
Caleb: Gross, it smells like dog here.
Bhavya: Huh, you're right! It does smell like little bitch out here.
꧁༺ Panel 55 ༻꧂
Bhavya: Hey! I wonder if these are edible... At the very least, maybe we could sell them.
Ezekiel: Oh, hey, sorry I didn't know someone was in here already.
Kwinn: You're good, hey, do you wanna be roommates?
Ezekiel: Sure, why not? You're gonna keep your clothes on, right?
꧁༺ Panel 21 ༻꧂
Kwinn: Sure, you're not gonna eat me, right?
Ezekiel: I'm a siren, dumbass.
꧁༺ Panel 22 ༻꧂
Ezekiel: They're a dumbass, but I just wanted to go to bed, man.
꧁༺ Panel 23 ༻꧂
Ximin: So, like, what's your situation? I'm a spellcaster.
Styvie: Oh, I'm a vampire.
Ximin: Would you say immortality is a pain in the neck? Heh heh.
Styvie: Dude, shut up.
Jett: I'm sorry if this is weird, but I just think you're really beautiful.
Bhavya: Aw, that's so sweet, thank you. I think you're beautiful, too.
꧁༺ Panel 24 ༻꧂
꧁༺ Panel 25 ༻꧂
Jett: No, I don't think Bhavya got what I was talking about, but just as well. I was starting to get tired and a little overwhelmed. Humaning is hard.
꧁༺ Panel 26 ༻꧂
꧁༺ Panel 27 ༻꧂
꧁༺ Panel 28 ༻꧂
Ximin: I swear I wasn't even drunk, I haven't even found the liquor yet! There's something about this house, bro.
꧁༺ Panel 29 ༻꧂
Styvie: Hello? Oh, wow. Hi, sorry! I just have to pee.
꧁༺ Panel 30 ༻꧂
Styvie: I have no idea what those things were. I wasn't scared I just felt bad for not giving them any space. But I spoke with them for a moment, they didn't say anything or really make any noise.
꧁༺ Panel 31 ༻꧂
꧁༺ Panel 32 ༻꧂
꧁༺ Panel 33 ༻꧂
Styvie: After I spoke with the spirits, I got the feeling I need to go fishing, so I did. I figured it would be a good source of plasma, or we could sell it since we have no money. When I got back it was late and everyone was in bed, there was only one bed left. You know, I felt like I was being a little harsh on her, so I was actually kind of glad to be rooming with her.
꧁༺ Panel 34 ༻꧂
Bhavya: No, when I woke up I didn't think anything of it. She's incredibly quiet, so I'm sure we'll be fine.
Ximin: Yeah, I really don't know [laughs] I don't know why Kwinn took their close off. I was just trying to comfort Bhayva.
꧁༺ Panel 6 ༻꧂
Ezekiel: Man, I saw too damn much.
꧁༺ Panel 7 ༻꧂
Bhavya: Um, yes, I just... [Laughs] Kwinn seems very interesting, and I thought it was very sweet of Ximin to try to calm me down.
꧁༺ Panel 9 ༻꧂
Kwinn: I don't think this place is haunted, no, but I saw an opportunity with the rain. You know, cleanse yourself, clean your spirit.
꧁༺ Panel 10 ༻꧂
Styvie: Oh, goodness! No, I didn't see that! But I do agree we should come into this house with clean spirits, although I'm not sure naked and rain are the way to do it.
꧁༺ Panel 11 ༻꧂
Jett: [Groans] Yes, I saw it all. Humans are strange.
꧁༺ Panel 12 ༻꧂
꧁༺ Panel 13 ༻꧂
꧁༺ Panel 14 ༻꧂
Kwinn: It's hard to say. Using my "ablities," I'd say everyone seems fairly okay. I'll probably keep an eye on Jett, though, I'm a little worried they don't really know what's going on. Oh, and Styvie seemed pretty tense, but who knows.
꧁༺ Panel 15 ༻꧂
Ezekiel: Meh, it's been a day. Everyone seems cool. No one's really talked or opened up yet... I mean, other than Kwinn, I hope they keep their clothes on.
꧁༺ Panel 16 ༻꧂
Ximin: I am so excited to be here! Holy Christ, did you see the turntable in the living room?! It plays serious vinyls! Oh, and there's this sick dance floor in the yard. If I could figure out how to get cell service out here, we could have one hell of a rager. I wonder if we could get a DJ table out there that'd be sick. Oh, but what if it rained?
꧁༺ Panel 17 ༻꧂
Jett: Everybody seems nice, I haven't had much interaction with anyone yet. I did get to know more about Kwinn than I imagined I would. I do hope to get to know everyone a normal amount, however, especially Bhayva...
꧁༺ Panel 18 ༻꧂
Bhavya: Well, I'm a little... Apprehensive about Styvie, I get the feeling she's unease around a werewolf being here, I hope that doesn't affect much, but I suppose that's up to her. I think Ximin's a sweetheart, though, he seems like he's gonna be a lot of fun. I'm also really interested in hearing more about where Jett's from.
꧁༺ Panel 19 ༻꧂
Styvie: There's a lot of energy going on, I think it's going to take a minute for everyone's to mix together and settle... Though Jett, their aura is so clean! And I can tell Ezekiel is much kinder than he wants us to know. Kwinn... There's something about them I feel they might be hiding. I'm also a tad worried about Bhavya, I'm a little skeptical. I know werewolves aren't the biggest fans of vampires. My father always made sure I knew the stories, so there's something in the air there that we are just going to have to becautious of.
I would like to welcome you to my humble abode, I trust you found the tour enchanting?
I spent many good years of my life here, and many after, of course.
I left this lovely home to my niece. She tried to live here for some time, but I suppose she was much too squeamish for my challenges.
Nevertheless, the manor is hers to sell...
Mind you, this house was very expensive, and if it wasn't going to be used for my kin, I left very clear instructions should it be sold.
I want nothing but to be remembered for being charitable, so before she can sell it, my niece must open the doors to six sims of her choosing. If any one of them can survive my challenges, they will receive the option to take the house off of my niece's hands or to cash in on the sale with her.
Very thoughtful, I should think!
Now these challenges, you ask. Well...
Let's just say this place has quiet the "pest" problem. I wasn't able to pinpoint in my fleshy time here.
Should they figure out what's causing it, fantastic. However, that's not the challenge.
Actually, there are other things while we're at it;
As we've established, the manor is obviously haunted, possibly cursed.
Quite a few people have lost their lives here, and those who left with their lives intact could not say the same for their minds.
Also, the spider situation here is nuts.
Oh, and vampires really like to hang around here? It's boardline soliciting at this point, I can not get them to leave.
Obviously, no wifi, no TV... Come to think of it, the only kind of electricity there is is gas... What? I was quite busy when I was alive, I didn't exactly have time to upgrade appliances.
But our visitors can do that if they so please, they won't have any money other than what they can make. Oh, and they must remember not to touch the shrines.
One more thing, keep an eye out for... You know what, I'm going to go ahead and leave that a surprise.
Huh? Oh, right, the challenge. The challenge is staying alive and, well, functional.
Styvie's never wanted to be vampire. She doesn't understand how she could have possibly been born to such powerful vampires. She always felt a call to nature, back when she was just a wee bat, she would sit in the gardens of the cemeteries her father so desperately tried to teach her in. She's never picked up much about being a vampire, but she has learned a thing or two about plants and animals, though she does wonder if she's wasting her talents...
Will Styvie blossom as the little sunflower she is, or will she learn that she's more of a deadly nightshade?
Ezekiel isn't asking for much here, he's just asking for some quiet to play his games and for BILLIONAIRES TO STOP FUCKING HIS WATER!!! And trust, he's prepared to take matters into his own fins, even if that means building a death ray... Unfortunately that takes some funding he doesn't have, so for now he's willing to take a swing at this wholw challenge thing. Maybe he'll win some money, maybe he can use the air time to guilt people into not polluting. It's a win-win.
