Wanted Man
In this thread I will document my gameplay of the Lone Traveller Challenge: rules here I created my own list of locations and length of stay will be only 1 die + 2 days, otherwise I intend to follow...

The love life of Daniel O'Malley:
He feels apalled by smooth talkers in fancy suits (like that pesky detective), and attracted to funny/goofish people (like that pesky detective...). Daniel thinks he likes kind people, but subconsciously his own argumentative nature leads to him apprecciating the same trait in others. He is turned off by good kitchen workers, since that is his personal domain.
As for romantic satisfaction, physical intimacy goes a long way. Gifts are nice, but one cannot buy love, so Danny is neutral towards them.
Daniel feels attracted to both men and women and he gets jealous at everything (what is rare for my sims, I took care to disable jealousy for mere flirting for almost everyone except the most possessive characters).
One day, while sweeping the cell, Daniel found his eyes wondering towards the fiery pianist, Seth Stratford. He really enjoyed spending time with Seth, and now for some reason he had become interested in how Seth looked... walked...
Daniel: "Yawn... I'm tired. What from, even? This is the low security tract for minor offenses, they don't make us grind rocks. Maybe that's why. There's nothing to do in here. I'm bored."
Daniel: "Nah, only joking. How could I be bored when you are around?"
Seth: "Admit it, you WERE bored and wanted me to hit you and start a brawl again."
Daniel: "Any excuse for touching you, I guess."
And so a prison romance started. It was safe, Daniel thought. What happened in the cell would stay in the cell and it wasn't as if they were in love. It was just how men in jail or on long treks dealt with the lack of women.
Meanwhile Chris Miller had won four races with Plum, barrel racing and westen riding, beginner and advanced each. The day of his release Daniel was rich: 1,463 dollar!
Before parting ways, they chatted a little...
Chris: "Can you imagine that a married woman hit on me? What was she thinking!"
Daniel: I kinda want YOUR romance problems.
Daniel knew it was unwise, but that night he invited Seth to the abandoned saloon lot. Seeing the other in his regular clothes again after fours weeks of black stripes in white was unfamiliar. So the clothes had to go...
After this, Daniel knew he absolutely had to leave town. He cursed himself!
He could have had a friend, could have listened to Seth's piano playing every evening, but, no, he just HAD to go beyond common sense, CLAIM what he wanted and HOLD ON to it. And in doing so he had lost what could have been.
