Fandom High Library, Wednesday, 9/6

Angela came in a little late, clutching a mug of chai and a bagel like lifelines. She loaded a copy of the Sims into her "new" laptop and started trying to keep a very whiny miniature couple alive.

The library was open.

After Ms. Readman came in, Angela put a stack of applications on the counter and waited to see who would appply.

Damion and Martinique had a nice little house.

Too bad they wouldn't quit arguing long enough to move in.

Now they're moved in and Damion has joined the army, while Martinique is trying her luck as an actress.

Too bad all the plants keep dying.

Angela has saved the game and headed off to her computer class. Maybe someone else can help you?

...and now she's back, and trying to convince the Sims they didn't want a baby.

They wanted a baby.

Angela sighed and settled in for simulated sleep deprivation.

Angela put the game on pause and ate some yogurt in the break room.

The fake baby, Frito, had turned into a very annoying little boy.

Angela's gotten bored with the first family and made another one.

Of course, Martinique seemed to have nothing better to do than flirt with the Michael Stipe-looking Sim.

It was like a soap opera.

And now Martinique has married Michael Stipe -- and Angela had to admit, the wedding was pretty cool -- and Damion is doing the single father thing.

Too bad he would rather watch TV than go to work or play with his son.

Angela is truly annoyed by all of her Sims now, so she's testing ways to kill them.

Having them swim until they die of exhaustion has a certain appeal.

All done.

Blah blah blah work after 1:30 = slowplay.

Bridge wanders in to the library, killing time since he doesn't have any classes except Hunting, and that's not till last period.

"Hey, Angela."

Angela saved her game and looked up. "Hey, Bridge. Looking for someplace quiet?"

"Yeah," he smiles slightly. "I don't wanna be by myself, but I don't wanna be surrounded by people either, right now. So... library."

That got a tiny smile. "It's been kind of a downer couple of weeks." She pointed to the shelves. "We have, um, books and stuff."

"Books are good," Bridge notes. "Do you know if you guys need any more help in the library this semester?" he asks, after a minute of silently going over a shelf of books on computer repair.

"The new librarian's going to hire a few more people," Angela said. "I think she's finalizing the forms now. Why, are you looking for a job?"

"Yeah," Bridge nods. "Hasn't been much call to repair stuff lately. So," he shrugs.

"I guess everyone who wants an appliance that dispenses candy has one," Angela said. "Shame. Anyhow, I'll call you when the applications are out."

She squinted curiously, suddenly aware she had spent a lot of time with Rory and almost none with Bridge. "Are you doing okay, with -- stuff?"

Marty swung by with goodies from J'GOB's. "Hey you. Up for a little lunch date?"

"Only when I don't let myself think about how much I miss him," Bridge admits.

I liked the death by flying asteroid, but that wasonly in Sims 2.

"Hey! I wouldn't object," Angela said, gratefully pausing the computer game, where Frito had just brought home a failing repport card. "What do you have?"

Angela winced. "Sorry. Have you heard from him at all?"

I never had Sims 2, woe. My favorites were to either set off the rocket toy in a small room for a fast death, or to lock them in a cell without a door, food, or anything to do if I really wanted to see the character suffer.

Yomiko came into the library carrying her briefcase and a stack of forms. "Angela, could you ~~stick a link to these in the post~~ make sure people know these are available?" she asked.

"Sure ~~though I'll have to retcon my conversation with Bridge~~," Angela agreed, and went to do that.

"Hope we get some good applications," she said when she was done. "I like the questions."
