Chapter Sixteen: What's This?

Last time, Mikey had some good luck and bad luck with girls and we made a bunch of moolah. He's also coming nicely into his future role of Emperor of Evil.
This chapter...

Gee is on the phone with his boss when he notices a new, hideously unrendered house down the street.

He sprints over, screeching something about playing catch. Sure, Gee, maybe they'll play catch with you.

He rounds the corner and finds...

PART 3 OF MEGAN'S BIRTHDAY SURPRISE PACKAGE! Happy birthday!

Megan Pegasus is a

• Bookworm (she runs a BookTube and book review blog. Go check 'em out!)
• Light Sleeper (she and I both are insomniacs)
• Lucky (Gotta include that Irish heritage somewhere)
• Charismatic (Megan just lights up a room. And even when not in person, our conversations always make me smile)
• Good (it's the closest to comforting and understanding that base game traits get. She's an incredible listener and always knows just what to say to help me feel better when I'm doing horrible. Thank you so much for always being there, Megan.)

Her favourites are:

• Grilled cheese (a reference to our late-night snack of ranch quesadillas. That's still my go-to, Megan!)
• Violet
• Indie music (I wish Sims had punk or 50s music, but sadly they don't.)

And she's a Gemini like me.
Let's check out her house. I had to take pictures in buy mode so they're not that great.

Though a bit cluttered, it has all the necessities: a bathroom, kitchen, office, bed, and a floor plan resembling the Ways second house. Everything a burgeoning journalist could want.
Let's get back to Megan and Gee.

Megan: Please, come inside! Don't be put off by the hand-eating: it's how it renders itself.

Gee's not sure what exactly he's gotten himself into.

While rounding the corner to her front door, Gee has a diva moment. Still, Megan seems a bit relieved he actually agreed to enter her home.

During his diva moment, however, something interesting happens. I've never promised a wish faster.

Megan's too busy crying over windows to celebrate, though. Maybe they're happy tears? About the fact that she can watch him garden from her window?

But before Gee can even ask her sign, she barrages him with a story about pretties, and shinies, and a computer...

NO MEGAN. You don't just topple the fourth wall like that!

But she spins it into a funny story and Gee guffaws uproariously.

Megan: My evil plan is working. :D

He finally gets to ask her sign and whaddaya know? They're compatible. He immediately wishes to go swimming. I did not plan any of this, real Megan, I swear.

But she's too tired to group up with him and go swimming around midnight. *glares at virtual Megan*

Gee instead gives her pointers on the house. Daaang... I'm not a muscle person, but lookit those biceps!

Megan just listens, lovestruck, and then tries to act like she knows what she's talking about.

To no one's surprise, family-oriented Gee then enthuses about his wedding that will eventually happen. Sometime.

Megan: *internally screaming* Can we...talk about something else?

Gee: But...but...

She's just as distraught as me at Gee's sadface.

Megan: Um... *singing nervously* Y-you are....my sunshine...my only s-sunshine...

Gee: You make me happy when skies are gray!
She cheers him up so much that...

I SWEAR THIS IS NOT ME. ALL GEE.

And the kiss is so great their world falls away.

Look at them! They're so happy and dazed.

I would say so!



BONUS:

Kissing isn't always romance movie material.

Hope you enjoyed part 3 of your present, Megan! Gee certainly made it even more of a surprise!
