The Joe Baghead Show
Dating shows are all the rage these days. Who doesn't like to see a bunch of sexy singles locked in a house for weeks on end, slowly driving each other insane in the hopes that two of them might find ...

Day 2: Joe must go on an outing with the girl he has the highest relationship with - Sienna.
Sienna gets an early start to the day by setting the kitchen on fire at 5 am. Luckily the house has a sprinkler system installed so the fire went out right away, only taking the refrigerator and oven as casualties. Rebecca and Joe survey the damage.

While we waited for the emergency appliance delivery service to replace the food-giving appliances, Taylor broke the sink.
After the appliances were replaced - the sink still broken - Katrina came downstairs to just stand in front of the refrigerator for no apparent reason, still naked. Devon patiently waited for Katrina to, you know, MOVE, then gave up and just left the kitchen even though she was still hungry.
Joe, also hungry, decides to ask Sienna on the outing. "I mean, they do have food outside, right?" says Joe. Joe finds Sienna treading water in the ocean despite being hungry. She's in a confident mood for "extinguishing the fire" even though she STARTED the fire and had nothing to do with it being extinguished.
For a change of scenery, they decide to head to Tartosa's Celebrazioni d'Amore.
In what I'm beginning to see is somewhat of a repeating pattern, Joe and Sienna ordered food at the same time but sat at different tables.
Joe stood up, and I was hoping that meant he'd figure out to sit with Sienna, but instead he just sat at a different empty table. Shortly after that, he got up again and went to the bar. Sienna also got up but sat at the table Joe had just vacated. Maybe there's a draft?
FINALLY they ended up sitting together and chatted briefly, until a townie came over to talk to Joe. Then Sienna and Joe played the same "get up and move to another table for no apparent reason" game of musical chairs.
Every townie visiting the lounge just HAD to come over and ask Joe about the paper bag on his head. He was so distracted talking to these people that he didn't notice Sienna slipping away to take a nap in the best possible place - the hot tub.
That is in no way dangerous at all!
While Joe sat, wondering where on earth Sienna had disappeared to and wondering if agreeing to be on this show was a good decision after all, a friendly townie - Eleanor Sullivan - came by and Joe got some sage advice on love from her. Joe was then thrilled to spot a genuine celebrity - Judith Talla!
"She still looks the same as she did in those old movies!" Joe gushed.
Sienna, awake from her hot tub nap, really needed to pee. Being a sim, she just stood there and made no effort to go use the toilet.
At 7 pm, Joe decided to call it quits for the day. "She barely spoke to me on this date and I didn't even know where she was for like 4 hours. Maybe I'll focus on the other girls for the rest of the week, if she can't figure out to get a good night's sleep the night before she's getting one-on-one time with me."
Back at the house, everyone is still feeling tense from the fire. Nobody fixed the sink. Joe, sad and tired, goes to bed early. Tomorrow's another day, Joe!
Sienna finally figured out she needed to GO TO SLEEP
Gemma learns she likes "deep thoughts" during a late-night conversation with the girls minus Sienna and Devon, who were both sleeping.
Despite the less-than-ideal outing, Joe's highest relationship is still with Sienna.
Not a super eventful day, other than the fire. Up next: Day 3! Will romance finally spark between anyone in the house? What happens at the mandatory club meeting? And will I FINALLY notice there's no trashcan? Stay tuned!

Not much to say. Why do sims NEVER STAY AT ONE TABLE?! Also if you couldn't tell from Judith this save has been running for a while so some of the original premades are older or dead. I'm having trouble figuring out exactly what has happened in this game, though, because Eliza and Bob Pancakes seem to be dead, but Bella Goth is the same age she was originally even though Mortimer is dead, and I don't know where Cassandra and Alexander are, and Orange Bailey-Moon is an adult with no parents.
The shot of Joe and Rebecca in pajamas in front of the burnt fridge is my favorite screenshot so far.
Also by day 3 of this I had actually forgotten what Joe looked like under the bag. I recently took the bag off just to remind myself because all I'd remembered was his hair color and certain specific facial aspects, because I was in CAS anyone to turn off the hair growth for everyone. Very exciting for me!
Also this will be important later, but one of my mods installed has an attractiveness system in it, and I'm keeping track of how everybody feels about each other, because it changes depending on how their romances develop I guess?
Sorry for the gaps between posts! Since day 2 and day 3 are both kind of uneventful I'm planning on having a shorter gap between them.
