Today I brought my favourite geeky Sims from Willow Creek to Batuu, the BFF household. Batuu has become the Stars Wars cosplay vacation spot for all my geeky Sims. Travis is a Pirate now, using his computer nerd skills to unlock crates, take down security, steal things and build robots. Liberty is supporting the Resistance, and since she is my Astronaut Sim, it will be fun when she can fly the x-wing on some missions. Summer has joined the First Order, naturally, the perky do gooder Sim has been busy checking ID and resealing robbed crates. They like to meet up now and then for some drinks and a game of sabacc. Have you ever played this household before? What are they up to in your game?

That's a good idea. I haven't made it to Catarina yet in my rotation, so I don't know what I'll do with her and the cats.
Awww... I was just saying in another thread how I need a household to live permanently in Batuu, and I think you just gave me one! BFF are going to be added to my rotation and moved into that world, I really like the idea of them being there, thanks!
I love the hairstyle and clothing choices you made for them.
I haven't played them in a long while, but two times I did are still pretty clear in my mind, a lot of times they get snagged by MCC and then I fill in the blanks.
First Liberty would move out and start a life with Vlad they had two fairly pretty kids and Travis bought the house he would marry Summer in. Though Vlad wouldn't let her see them for fear she would give up her new life as she refused to change for most of their time together, she heard they were doing well and that was good enough.
Then another I think she died, Travis married Gunther and they asked Summer to be their surrogate, after the kids were born she was thrown from the house and ended up in Osasis Springs with Johnny Zest they had a few kids before I lost the save. Maybe I should play them again :)
I started a EA premade rotational save file last month inspired by Beatdoc. I switch households every sim week so I didn't have much time with the BFFs. Decided it would be fun if they all attended uni while staying put in Willow Creek.. Oof! I forgot how hectic it can be trying to juggle a job and school. Travis got a scholarship but the other two took on student loans. Then right before I switched I made a last-minute decision to turn Summer into a mermaid. She always rolled whims to visit the pool. Even though it was summer so that's most likely the reason, no one else did. If I played that household longer, I would have taken them to Batuu because it seems so fitting for the household.
@SweetieWright_84 I've always wanted her to become a Vet and own the clinic in Brindleton Bay. I just never made it that far in her gameplay. Maybe next time I play her lot I will have her rescue kittens and go around gifting them to people and buy her the Vet lot.
@elanorbreton I'm so happy I added to your gameplay. I hope you have fun playing with them in Batuu.
@RedDestiny92 Those are great story plots. The occult Sims are so much fun to make drama with. My Vampires have such long complicated histories that I made up for them. :lol:
@SimplyJen I've always wanted to send them to University together too. It would be fun to play them as dorm roomates.
Nice post! The BFF household in my game is no more after Summer married a sim of mine and moved out a long time ago. Travis and Liberty married and have a teenage son together. They also are not living in the Foundry Cove neighbourhood anymore.
But like you I took those sims to Batuu, except Summer. Thought that adventure was most suited Travis and Liberty with them being geeks and all. So too is their son Derek. https://i.imgur.com/kdzsl1z.png
And their son Derek became a Scoundrel. https://i.imgur.com/CMHydZU.png https://i.imgur.com/UbbccA4.png https://i.imgur.com/Q0uk80b.png https://i.imgur.com/cX0Xmuv.png
When I play them in Batuu I pretend that the family are on a typical vacation, but none of them are aware of each other's secret dealings with the different fractions. I may have Travis discover that his wife has joined the First Order and move from there. In any case playing this way has made the game pack and this household really fun. I love the BFF sims.
Derek narrowly avoided his mother in a Stormtrooper suit. https://i.imgur.com/ikAvvma.png https://i.imgur.com/B7mck79.png
Derek (in the background) and Travis just missed each other while on their own separate missions. https://i.imgur.com/4wjoXgj.png
When the family does get together it's to hang out and have fun with their souvenirs from Batuu. https://i.imgur.com/EUPBSX0.png https://i.imgur.com/1NkvpRD.png https://i.imgur.com/h8J3tzq.png https://i.imgur.com/I7VHBNd.png
Haven't forgotten about Summer though! In fact I am currently with her household and she has opened her own restaurant in Magnolia Promenade.
@Elliandre Oh I have had so many, while I don't care if people like things different sometimes when you like the occult you can't help but feel some miss out when they don't use them. Though without derailing the thread I was focusing on a couple till they got married I'm gonna add the bff to my rotation and see what happens.
@HopeyStarr oh how fun, I like to have set ups like that not the exact thing but you know everything is what you make of it I say be free, kind of curious what'll happen when they all discover one another.
@HopeyStarr I love all your photos! :love: Their kid is so cute in your game. I really like the idea of Summer owning a restaurant. I always imagine history and personality for my Sims too and then get so attached to them.
@RedDestiny92 I would love to hear what happens in your story. My Sims Vampire story is like a parallel Vampire Diaries universe because I loved that show. They have a history with the Goths too.
@Elliandre Now I won't keep coming back but when I finally settled on where to move them after a make over I finally came up with a little something for this time around.
I am extra bouncy today as my favorite mochi came in and it got a little cold but it was still in great condition so here we go. https://i.imgur.com/2vGvIW2.png So while looking for a place Summer found some lost mail, not all that unusual with her being both brainy but airy at the same time..her words and read that she had some inheritance coming her way. She wasn't sure at first how to take that as they had been given keys to their rooms, as if whomever this Mr. Dria was knew her well enough she wouldn't just abandon her friends. Strange since most people she knew they did. Still with the house taken by the bank during their strike their options were limited. Maybe too good to be true said the lead of her brain...but she was desperate and she wasn't going to a halfway house said the airy side.
Liberty wasn't sure about this, they were downhome suburb-inites not a one of them belonged in the ritzy district of San M.
Travis was making the most of it, after all they could figure out what they needed if it was a scam but if it wasn't it was something Summer should have she was so disconnected from most of her family he thought she'd be happy with it. https://i.imgur.com/t6aB9uK.png First stepping in it was clear they didn't belong...to Liberty, Travis was bouncing though.
"Yeah it's nice and all but that balcony? How do you have Llama day celebrations there??"
Summer giggled, considering they normally went to Sulani or Brindleton for the Summer holiday so it hardly mattered, still she humored him.
"You know you're right, maybe you could fix it up, then every looking up can envy all our BBQs."
He was gone to examine what limited patio furniture there was, making notes on his phone before her sentence was over, she beamed he had always been the headstrong full of life type. Let him have it, she thought.
"What do you think Lib?"
She only shrugged.
"Oh...well before you plan out the rest of our summers, let's see the rooms." https://i.imgur.com/vpT1V1f.png First was Travis's and he was thrilled he had his own bathroom he didn't mind sharing at the old house sure....but both of them had make up and products he had no idea the use of with a different amount of time for each one..So long story short he'd like to get in the bathroom first every time."
"Alright you can forward my mail here I'm never leaving, this is so choice!" he moved to jump on the bed, shoes on cause he said so.
Liberty might have cracked a little smile as Summer shook her head.
"Well at least put some pillows on the floor so we don't have a repeat of last time." Summer said.
He grinned remembering plenty of bouncing and air on his old mattress and maybe missing said mattress to meet the floor he shuddered, maybe something was sprained maybe it wasn't he wouldn't comment.
"Yeah okay, maybe I should just stand up...let's see what you got Libby." he said. https://i.imgur.com/RfwqS4V.png The room was simple, maybe a little plain but comfortable still her mood was unreadable.
"Summer that's you." she said curious where the apparent heiress would be sleeping.
"Well okay.." https://i.imgur.com/u72C9w0.png As soon as the door was open she was ready to examine the make up, Travis gave a low whistle.
"This is what you girls call sparkle sparkle, it's nicer than your old room that's for sure."
Liberty didn't say a thing but she could only think she wished it was her, all this should be hers, she looked at Summer and huffed.
"What would you want with used goods?" she asked.
Summer shook her head, opening a few bottles.
"They are unopened...oh here's a note...ha Dear Little Lady Summer your father and I have never seen eye to eye on your mother but the first time I approved of her I got to meet you. THat was quite some time ago, this place will always be yours as I couldn't provide much for you living so far away it's a shame we couldn't be a family in the past I'll stop by if you claim your apartment if this year you do not I'll assume you don't wish for that and it will be sold so you may have the money instead. If I hear you take this I will send the deed and all legal paperwork I could assume you'd need.
Love Grandmother Helen,
Ps. I'm sorry. " She smiled slightly as Travis patted her back her parents had died almost three years ago in an accident.
"What a crock." Liberty said.
They looked at her.
"If she really cared why now?"
"It could be she doesn't know everything or she did and this is an apology for everything...what harm is it to hope it's all good? "
"There isn't any." Travis said stopping her he pushed her toward the bathroom and gave Liberty a look behind her back she only sneered and huffed. https://i.imgur.com/38t1quf.png "Okay I take it back, THIS is better than your old room, I may have to nap in here." Travis said, hoping to lighten the mood.
"It is pretty.." Summer said before Liberty frowned.
"Isn't this all a little much?"
Summer shrugged.
"I don't know...my parents never really let me go without and if they could get the best they gave it to me." for what her parents did for her making sure she had everything and really appreciated it was normal but she knew if her grandmother had surprised her with a visit it would have felt just as good if not better.
"That's right...say why don't you contact her instead of letting her see you took it maybe she'd like to know there's a chance to make things better." Travis offered, Summer grinned.
"That's a great idea."
"How long can I stay?" he asked, maybe a little hopeful.
She rolled her eyes.
"You're home doofus, I thought we settled you were stuck with me when that happened?"
Liberty only snorted as he bounced in his usual manner, life was so unfair.
Mmkay that got away from me, but if you read the whole thing hope you liked it.
