Dos Estudiantes un Camino: Carlos & Alon Torrez in College

I was planning of having Carlos plow through college before I sent in Alon, due to the age difference.  My patience lasted only so far, about three sim days to be exact, before I decided: fuck continuity.

Again, this is somewhat early on in my gameplay, so the small screencaps are back.  And everything that I really found interesting, I had put onto crappy stamp-sized vids.  It changed a bit towards the end, but not by much.




This is them studying together.  Say goodbye to Alon's hairdo, because when I returned from a comm lot...


This was what he chose to sport.  I didn't change it.  Apparently Alon wanted to be part of the family so much that he defied the game engine to have Carlos's 'do.

After that, things pretty much proceeded as Uni does.


Term papers.


Skilling.  (Charisma, the Popularity sim's best friend.)


Going to class... And of course Snowmen.


Same Moar snowmen!  And that jackass of a mascot.

Also, given Alon's little bit of stalkerness, and since he's a Knowledge sim anyway, I decided that the time honored tradition of Carlos's schoolwork being done for him should continue.  And thus Carlos was saved from Popularity sim aspiration failure.





Don't worry, it wasn't like Alon couldn't handle the extra workload and have fun of his own.  Also, Alon proves yet again that creativity is the family skill.  In his jammies.


Carlos makes some phone calls while Alon very obviously eavesdrops downstairs. D:



Carlos: Nah, mom, college is great.  I just... I sometimes get the feeling I'm being watched.  I'm sure it's nothing. ... Is that you breathing on the line?


DO NOT LET THIS SCREENCAP FOOL YOU.  Redhead over there haets Carlos.  In fact, I'm not sure the guy isn't crying, now that I take a closer look.  If he is: THIS SCREENCAP IS TOTALLY REPRESENTATIVE OF THEIR RELATIONSHIP.


Carlos scarfs down some food while Alon asks if he watched the Oscars last night.


The routine continued smoothly for 3 years:  Moar sleep!


Moar phone calls!


Moar violin!


Moar schoolwork!


And of course, moar annoying mascot!


But all of that might change.  Soon.


Very soon. (Hi Felix!  You look... like a gym teacher.)

Stay tuned for more Torrez-flavored School Daze.
