The game playing along with my story
Two of my main sims, Connor Anderson and Gavin Reed, have been rivals for thirteen years now. They are neighbors and work in the detective career, Gavin having worked his way up from the bottom, Connor having career-jumped from secret agent. Connor is also the previous Chief's protege, while Gavin and that Chief never saw eye to eye. Even so, when that chief retired, and both Connor and Gavin were at level 9 of the career, it felt only right to have them succeed the old chief together. That works well, whenever I play Connor, I get Gavin as chief and vis a vis. If I play different police sims, I randomly get either of the two chiefs.
Until today.

Today I found Connor playing the guitar in his office (what he admittedly does occasionally), totally world-removed, to the sound of his computer bluescreening.
Still today, but one day later in the simsworld, I found Gavin in the chief's office, thinking about computers and being very unhappy. He was staring at a lowly patrol officer...

...only on second glance that "patrol officer" turned out to be Connor!
Apparently Gavin had temporarily demoted his Co-Chief for having broken the computer yesterday.

Connor: "This isn't in any way, shape or form related to the TV show they're filming at the DPD at the moment? And MY contestant having lasted LONGER than yours?" (the show is linked in my signature)
Gavin: *low growl*
It's so in-character for them, even though they have almost full friendship bars, they're still rivals, and of course Gavin wouldn't take kindly to getting "defeated" by Connor, even if only indirectly.
Still today...

Another computer dead at Connor's hands. This is getting out of hand, Con', go see a mechanic! You have a virus!

Yes, technically this is the I don't like programming icon. But it became so much more when put in the correct context!
