My Grieving Sims
So I have posted in the play and chat thread about my Monica and Sophia Hernandez. They are sisters that live together and they did have a roomie, Omar Jackson :( who met an early demise while trying to fix their electronics. Though Monica and Grim are friends-he still refused her request to revive Omar.
I'm a little underwhelmed with Omar's haunting so far. He doesn't seem to startle the girls much-in fact, one evening he and Monica just started chatting like everything was normal. That could use some work.
Both girls were upset for a few days after Omar's death, however Sohpia seems to have taken it the hardest. I don't know, if this has to do with traits?
Monica is Self assured, Romantic and Outgoing.
Sophia is Family, Neat and a Foodie.
Monica has moved on with life and functions fine-Sophia will stop in the middle of cooking breakfast to go over to Omar's urn and will start sobbing-and then has a 3 or 4 hour moodlet about grieving for her friend. It's difficult to get her to focus on anything. Sophia has also started hanging out at the kitchen bar far more often. Every time she takes a moment to grieve for Omar, she then goes over and prepares herself a drink.I have started to micro manage her time, I just don't know what else to do. She has now taken up the violin (hard on the ears yet). And gardening and yes, usually has the option to water with her tears.
She and Omar weren't even romantically involved, they were friends but not the best of friends. I was considering pushing towards pairing them up for marriage but never got that far. I don't know, maybe she needs to get married and have kids? Even when I micro manage her she tries to slip off to cry over him. I don't want to get rid of his urn but I'm starting to think that might be the best. I wish we still had grave yards :(
And yet, Monica-happy as can be, still making friends and having a good time where ever she can
