Dancing Mr Reaper

 

Willow enjoys having a gathering of Sim neighbours at her home on a regular basis and this episode is no exception.

In previous get togethers however, only food and friendly conversation ensued, apart from of course the odd Sim dropping dead here and there.  This occasion is somewhat a little different as Willow purchased a music centre.  Just a small one. Some would call it a radio.  Nevertheless, having the addition of music changed her "party" into a "soiree".

As usual, Willow invited a few Sims that she didn't like, five in fact, to taste the delicacy of Pufferfish Nigiri that she made herself, afresh for her guests, participate in friendly conversation and dance the night away.  This is what her guests thought but you would think that, again, if someone you don't like invites you to their soiree, knowing that the feeling was reciprocated, that you wouldn't go, would you?  Well, I would have thought not too.  But, we are talking about The Sims and even though they are supposed to be "Smart Sims" as advertised when TS4 was first released, they are not smart at all.

One by one they turned up at Willows house, obviously looking forward to the evening ahead.  After being invited to dance, they were offered some freshly made food which, although struggling with the chopsticks, they ate with relish.  It wasn't long before one Sim started feeling the effects.  In fact the Grim Reaper showed up before the poor Sim had actually hit the floor.  It seems that Mr Reaper enjoys taking the souls of Sims, rushing to the place of death and then taking his time to read his list.

After receiving four of these souls, he decided to dance.  And dance he did!  He must be on dancing skill level 10 the way he busted those moves.  The Grim Reaper carried on dancing as the fifth Sim (the one who survived the Pufferfish dish) burned to death behind him.

Summer Party

During the hot months of Summer, it is only natural for Sims to want to get together and hang out by the pool.  Partying is on the agenda and what better than to do this with friends - drinking, dancing and lots of water fun is perfect on a hot summers day.

Willow is no exception.  Even our evil witch loves to hang out in the garden in the sunshine, especially since she loves the outdoors.

Unfortunately for Willow, she doesn't have a swimming pool or even a bar.  Neither does she have a radio or music centre.  To top it all, she doesn't even have any friends.  But this doesn't stop Willow from inviting other Sims over to her house and it doesn't stop other Sims from taking her up on her invite.  However, as I have said before in previous posts, Sims turn up to Willow's home but not all of them leave.

This year in Glimmerbrook, the Summer has been especially hot, to the point of a heatwave, so Willow decided to have a Summer Party.

She invited a few Sims over that she knew and low and behold, they accepted her offer.  These poor unsuspecting Sims thought they were in for a good time; lounging around in the Summer sun, drinking, dancing, water fun but they were in for a big surprise.

Willow took the precaution of locking her door so that her guests would stay in the garden to get lots of sun and fresh air.  And of course she made her speciality dish of Pufferfish Nigiri, just in case her guests became hungry.

Everyone gathered in the garden, chatting and getting to know one another.  A few picked up plates of food and struggled to eat it with the chopsticks provided but they persevered, to their detriment.

As you can guess, the inevitable happened.  And if the Pufferfish Nigiri didn't kill them, the hot Summers sun would.

No-one left Willows home that day.
