The Story of Oscar and Louise

I recognised Oscar and Louise from the household exchange thread and was curious to see what the story will be. Oscar's backstory is really sad, and his first day in Hidden Springs was quite eventful - space rocks, a mascot, a time portal, an ice cream truck and a firefighter on your home lot is a lot for one sim to deal with at once! :)

Thanks for the comment and watching the video. Oscar gets a bit frustrated for an episode or two then he'll cheer up a bit. Better not say too much just yet tho. :)

Oscar and Louise Episode 2 is now on YouTube

It's all about Oscar settling into life in Hidden Springs.

He goes out and buys a guitar from the Blue Building. Collects Suns from the Stones Throw Greenhouse. Picks wildflowers and skates at the Summer Festival. Meets a few new sims from around town.

We see an cameo appearance of Cheeky McFluff at the Bistro.

Episode 3 of Oscar and Louise is now available to watch on YouTube

It is full of action and things happen fast. Some you've seen before but I've cut most of that out - picking flowers and collecting seeds - but other things are new for Oscar - building a pool and having a pool party for example.

You also seem him riding about on his Beast of a Bike. And have a look through the Blue Building - a Savvy Seller store I made years ago and have in my Studio.

Happy Simming

It runs for just under 30 minutes and you may not notice the time flying by as I've made this one really tight trying to get what was going to be two episodes into one.

@Karritz,

Happy Simming to you too, Ms. Karritz!

You have a lovely story developing here.

FIFTEEN children?!! All by one woman?! Oh my, dauntingly ambitious!

Looking forward to watching Oscar and Louise's garden grow.

Also, I did chuckle when seeing Oscar has at least one gnome already.

Here I was thinking I was the last gnome fan on the planet. Silly me. ~grin~

Glad to see your font, best wishes with your story. How grand!


~happy simming~

@Aunza it's nice to see you. It's been a while since I've read a post of yours. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. I do enjoy my gnomes. I even added one to the McFluff story just in case it didn't appear autonomously.

I'm working on the next episode of Oscar and Louise at the moment.

I'm introducing Louise to the story and, naturally, starting at the beginning.

Her parents when they first met, got to know each other and got married and she was born. Hoping to get the game play finished today to take the story up to the point where her mother is pregnant.

Her parents are Bluey and Lorna. They are country folk - Bluey more so than Lorna. He's lonely and she just wants a husband - not particular who it is she just wants marriage and a child so she will fit in better with the community in which she lives - I can't see the logic myself but then I doubt that her personality requires logic. A quiet pliable bloke will suit her needs best.

Bluey is an angler and spends his days fishing to support himself - and eventually his family should he ever have one. That should keep him out of Lorna's life sufficiently once she has him tied to her for life. And should provide her with at least a basic income to keep a roof over their heads thereby freeing her to do whatever she wants.

This episode will be them meeting for the first time up to the birth of Louise. So far they are romantic interests. I'm having a few problems though - I do have free will on so that's possibly part of it.

Problem 1. I want them to have some alone time, but no matter where I send them 'half the town' shows up on the lot within minutes. That probably isn't too bad an issue - it means I'll be using only short clips of it in bits and pieces.

Problem 2. Bluey has a mind of his own. For instance, I sent them to have some fun at a roller coaster park I built ages ago. It was the only one I have that could fit into an existing lot in Riverview. Bluey keeps running off to do his own thing. On one occasion I went looking for him and found him getting his face painted. Then it was late at night so I sent him and Lorna home. Lorna obliged and she played with the computer for ages. Finally I went looking for Bluey - he was still at the park sitting out front in a taxi. As I watched and wondered when the taxi was going to drive him home he jumped out. He wanted a triple choc something or other and I found him having an animated conversation with the barista bar attendant.

Here's a pic

In spite of all of this I've got them to be Romantic Interests.

When daylight arrives I plan for them to spend the day together and hopefully have them married and honeymooned and maybe even pregnant today. Nothing like pushing it along.

It doesn't really matter how they get along together but they do have a few traits in common - bad traits but they have them in common.

I just want to get Louise into Hidden Springs with Oscar with a believable back story. Sorry it's taking some time. I had a day off on the 26th when I was out for the day. I did a bit yesterday (that's when I had the problems) I'm back at it today.

Episode 5 of Oscar and Louise is now available on YouTube

In this video Bluey and Lorna continue dating. They become girlfriend and boyfriend. Then get engaged and married. We do see the wedding at the Gazebo in town. They live in Riverview.

They then go on their honeymoon to Sunlit Tides. Soon after they return home they discover Lorna is pregnant and at the end of the video Louise is born in hospital at Riverview.

Enjoy

The Story of Oscar and Louise Episode 6 is now on YouTube

https://youtu.be/XCkqfCqgd0Y

Louise and Leanne age up from baby to toddler and learn skills then age to child and have some adventures as well as learning skills. They go to Egypt to find a Rainbow Gem and have fun on the roller coasters at Sweetie Treats Theme Park. There is a big birthday party for them to age up to teen and Leanne prepares to make her imaginary friend, Rags real.

I am currently working on the next episode of the Oscar and Louise story. I have got about (a little over) 9 hours of video to cut down to 30 minutes. When I've done that I'll be able to post it to YouTube.

In the meantime, here is the first in series of Outtakes from the videos.

It is now on YouTube and in a new Playlist just for Oscar and Louise out takes.

It should be a fun playlist.

This first video is all about Oscar's childhood and we meet him and his parents and see where he lives and goes to school - all in about 1.5 minutes.

Episode 7 of The Story of Oscar and Louise is now available for viewing on YouTube.

It's full of activity as I had to squeeze 9 hours of play into just over 30 minutes. I think it runs for 34 minutes.

The video opens as Louise helps clean up after becoming a teen. It follows her and her sister through their teenage years and includes a variety of activities. They learn to fish, scuba dive, drive and many other things. They enjoy an outing to the roller coaster park and go to a prom. We see an imaginary friend becoming real and the three teens all enjoy their teenage years together. At the end of the video they all age up to Young Adult and Louise leaves home to live in a different town.
