Educated teen run away challenge

It's Ali's last weekend as a teen, so she decides to join Scouts and quit Computer Club. Scouts is an after-school weekend activity and I figure she can earn whatever badges she can in Scouts before her birthday party tomorrow. The day is dark and cloudy and it's Talk Like a Pirate Day.

I was going to have her keep her job as a Simfluencer until she started university, but I guess it conflicted with Scouts, and the game automatically had her quit her job, too. Oh well.

She gets a pop-up that Akira Kibo wants to purchase her preppy outfit at $50,190 simoleons! Woot!

And Mayor Whiskers, who is a cat, wants to purchase one of her paintings on plopsy! She didn't know that cats had simoleons.

But the very best call she got in the morning was from Jacob, who asked her on a date. She had to decline because it was in Windenburg, but this just made her day. Of course, she'll see him at prom tonight, so it's still good.

Even though it's Ali's last weekend as a teen in high school, she still does her homework. Ali then changes into her Scout uniform. She looks pretty good. There is a leaf pile near her house that is stinky, so she decides to burn the leaves to get rid of the smell. Oh gosh! Her outdoor skills are sadly lacking as she nearly sets fire to herself!

Maybe she should try something she knows, like fishing. Much better and she earns that badge. She also donates all those mounted fish she's been carrying around in her personal inventory to charity for another badge.

When she arrives back from Scouts, she got promoted to Griffon Scout! Way to go Ali!

It's now after 4pm and prom starts at 7pm. She decides to do some paintings for another badge. She gets another notification that she has been promoted to Unicorn Scout and gets a bronze trophy! Yes!

Time to get ready for prom. Thank goodness she already bought her dress! teehee

At promptly 7pm, Ali is whisked away to the prom. I am determined that she will get a gold reward this time! Ali grabs a drink.

And thank goodness one of the prom party goals is to eat something because she is starving.

She heads over to the dance floor and she and Jacob sit down together. She finds out that his favorite color is green! Just like hers! He looks so good in that shirt and bowtie.

After dancing, gossiping and talking to a lot of sims, it's time for the Prom Royalty Presentation. Ali voted for Hugo Villareal for Jester, and, of course, Jacob for prom royalty. And they both won!

Ali asks Jacob to take a photo with her in the photo booth...a romantic photo!!

I guess it was a good photo, because she gets this moodlet! lol

Jacob might be prom royalty, but he never forgot who he was there with. Ali and Jacob dance a sweetheart dance together. The night couldn't be more perfect, and Ali gets that gold reward! Yes!

But the night isn't over yet, and her friend Liam invites her to an after-prom party. Ali accepts and invites a bunch of friends.

Ali asks Jacob to go on a romantic ride with her in the cuddle carts (no mess around option, probably because they haven't kissed yet). Here goes nothing! On the ride, there are some cheesy props, and Ali wonders if she should just joke about it all or try to put a flirty spin on this cheesy ride?

Ali decides to go for the flirty spin, and Jacob loves this playful side of her. Oh gosh, and they have gained even more romance between them!

After the ride, Ali and Jacob can't keep their eyes off of each other.

And Ali herself is swooning....yes, swooning over Jacob. Ali has never felt this way about another sim like she is feeling with Jacob.

And, as is tradition, Ali plays a song on the guitar and gets tips from her friends.

Some of them start to head home, but she and Wolfgang head to play chess together. As they play chess, Ali knows that Wolfgang will always be a special sim to her.

It's time for Ali to head home, too, and she says goodbye to Jacob and gives Wolfgang some props. What a perfect night. Sweet dreams, Ali. :heart:
