VoicePoint Sims: Day 9

Oh, howdy! How y’all doing? It’s been forever since the last update, but let’s just pretend that the whole Fox and Jeds gettin’ it in deal was the season finale. Fireworks and all. In Kal’s bed.  

As someone of you know, I’ve been a tad busy with my brother’s wedding and some acting gigs. What I’m trying to say is this — I haven’t forgotten about the hype that is this shitorium VoicePoint Sims! I love reading your comments in the chat. Moarfantheoriesplz.

Anywayyyy, hold onto your hats and get buckled in. Because Day 9 (Season 2, I guess, lol) begins in 3... 2... 1!

'Twas a quiet morning in the VoicePoint house, Not a Jeds was yet stirring, not even her spouse. A stank there was floating, some rotten food in air, But Bandi and Tera ate breakfast — not even a care.

Downstairs came our Rob, Gucci-fresh outta bed, While visions of the dankest breakfast danced in his head.

A grilled cheese he started, yet that moment became dire BECAUSE HOLY SHIT YOU GUYS ROB IS ON FIRE.

Seriously though, guys. Rob is on fire. Kal rushes downstairs to extinguish the situation while the others stand aside to make goofy-ass faces.

Goofy. Ass. Faces.

“I got you, cousin.”

Kal probably definitely says to Rob. 

As Rob goes to clean up in the bathroom, Sam follows him. Bruh. BRUH. I didn’t know you two were that tight. Or maybe Rob is just super comfortable in his birthday suit. Or both.

Meanwhile, the kitchen is all fucked. Like... I think the sims have been preparing fucking party size plates of food (if you’ve played this game, it's when they just serve breakfast or serve dinner — when they make like 8 fucking servings per plate). And since there’s so much food, it’s all going bad. 

Ash wakes up with her hygiene score in the deep red. I don’t know what’s going on here.

Feesh is also woketh. And it looks like someone left garbage and a partially eaten cake in the bathroom. Makes fucking sense. 

Synaes is up and about too, and Kal is moping around the house for whatever reason. Probably Tera-related. I bet you it’s Tera-related. 

Bandoro has served some hot dogs, and I guess someone cleaned up the shitshow that was their kitchen. 

Annnnnnnnnnnnnd, Jeds wants to serve hot dogs too. 

Bandoro and Feesh are being cute. Kal is being mopey. Tera is being shirtless.

That garbage can is beautiful. #art

Wait, where are you guys going?

Guys?!

OH. MY. SANTA. Are they doing what I think they’re doing!? Why do they look so sad and dejected?

They. Are. 

They’re doing that. The horizontal mambo. Gland-to-gland combat. Parking the pink Cadillac. Invading the Netherlands. The Battle of Balls Deep. Too far?

At least they’re not in Kal’s bed.

Let’s just cut to Sam who is innocently napping on a bench in the garden. 

And Ash is gettin’ low in the living room with Fox and Tera. Yaaaas, queeeen, get yo life!

Guys. 

Bandoro just used the [Ask to Be Boyfriend (Feesh)] action. Are our hearts melting? I also want to point out that these two are maxed out in their friendship and romance percentage bars. Like 100 and 100. 

I still can’t with these two. 

On the other end of the spectrum, we have Kal and Tera who fucking hate each other right now. They actually had the Good Friends title once upon a time, but that changed like... yesterday? Lmao. Whenever Kal saw Synaes flirting with him, I guess.

Kal throws a drink — a cherry slushie maybe — in Tera’s face. 

Tera: 

Ծ_Ծ

Kal:

┌( ಠ‿ಠ)┘ 

I want to point out that their new friendship score is like... -30. Or worse.

Ash chills on the couch. She’s jammin’ out to that dope stereo. Bandoro is tired from banging Feesh’s brains out. 

Here’s our Synaes, slipping into the pool. I swear she’s posing for Sports Illustrated. 

After he’s done fighting with Kal, Tera joins Synaes in the pool.

And this made me laugh out loud. Jeds was waiting to use the [Whisper Seductively (Fox)] action, and he just kept playing the computer.

That’s it for Day 9! What’d you guys think? Also, what are your predictions for Day 10? I love hearing them in the Discord chat! 

Until next time, folks.

VoicePoint Sims: Day 8

So, uhhh... I guess this series still has hype, y’all! And I know, I know. I said Day 8 would be posted yesterday. I was wrong. It’s being posted today. So don’t you come for me, /sassykalfingersnap.

/sassykalhairflip.

We’re not going to waste another second, fam! Who’s ready? Who’s ready for this jelly?! Good — I’m just imagining a shrieking round of meeeeeeee. Grab a drink, peel off that wig, and sit back to enjoy the weirdness that is Day 8. 

The show begins in 3... 2... 1...

It's a bumpin' morning. Most — if not all — of the sims are awake before 8:30 AM, which is crazy rare. I think the dancing wore them out. Kal serves a plate of toast and eggs. Bandoro, probably her only enemy in the house, follows her around the kitchen until she’s done.  Maybe he’s just looking at her butt super hungry.

Looks like they’re shooting a commercial for eggs. Or breakfast. Or toast. I’m just commenting on the fact that Feesh has slowly walked into frame with that plate. 

Come on down to the VoicePoint Cafe for our new breakfast special — only $9.99 for gourmet eggs and buttered toast. Top it off with a cardiac explosion, personally induced by Kal. We’re shitting ourselves to see you!

Someone has fucked up the computer. It’s now displaying the blue screen of death. Fox jumps to fix the damn thing while Rob and Sam supervise the situation. They’re probably just fighting over who’ll use it first once it’s fixed. 

Tera and Synaes be flirtin’. Feesh be grabin’ a second plate of that good-good.

Rob stands in Bandoro’s personal bubble. Those dishes look rekt. Like how are they even green? These bitches had eggs and toast for breakfast. Did someone throw up or something? Is the VoicePoint Cafe doomed?

It seems that like... most of the sims have the day off today.

Fox and Synaes go for dip. Innocent fun. 

Synaes starts a splash war. Just Synaes things.

After his swim with Synaes, our sly Fox gives Jeds a nice massage. In Kal’s room. He’s into that kind of thing... I guess.

“You must be sore from those push-ups... let me help you out.”

— Definitely Fox

The goils are having some goil-time by the pool. Feesh, of course, needs to munch on a grilled cheese sandwich (made by his hunny, of course) while they discuss mens.

Is it just me or are these sims constantly fucking eating? 

I click back to see what these two are doing and GURL GOIIIIIIIIL.

GOIL.

THAT IS KAL’S ROOM I’M NOT JUST SAYING THAT DON’T YOU TWO HAVE A BATHROOM MY GAWD FOX PUT A SHIRT ON.

:O

WHA WHAT EVEN GUYS THAT’S NOT EVEN YOUR BED. 

(I like that (1) Fox puts on his robe and (2) Jeds puts on her leggings and tank top for sexy times respectable, adult activities. Makes sense.) 

“The fu—”

“œeaefsdgs▓├ƒ;;[;”

— Kalsim.exe has stopped working.

Anywaaaaaaay. That just happened.

Sam has made some grilled cheese sandwiches. And for whatever reason, the serving dish was placed at the edge of the lot. Maybe this is some kind of offering. 

I don’t get it.

Free-will sims are fucking weird.

The sun is setting. It looks like Bandoro and Kal are having a “come to Jesus” talk. I think. Or maybe not. It actually looks like Kal is checking out Jeds’ ass again.

Do she got a booty?

She do.

After his wonderful sandwich, Bandoro leaves to freshen up in the bathroom.

The Bandoro tooth-brushing game is strong. There’s also a pile of trash in the bathroom. Cool. 

To be honest, a few other sims have been brushing their teeth. I just thought I’d share this screenshot since Bandoro is actually super into brushing his teeth in real life. Anyone remember the VoicePoint podcast?

Sleepy Synaes is sleepy.

Y’all nasty, you hear me?!

YA NASTY.

What did you think, folks? Are we surprised by anything? Or is this going exactly as predicted? Let me know what you think in the #voicepoint-sims-house channel! Ta-ta for now.

VoicePoint Sims: Day 7

Hello, beautiful people!

It’s that wonderful time of day again. Today marks Day 7 — officially one week of sim madness. Who can believe it? I’m surprised no one has died or been knocked up yet, to be honest. Maybe I shouldn’t speak too soon.

Note: I have family in town at the moment, so the updates have slowed a bit. But never fear! If y’all still believe in the hype, then I do.

Without further a do, the show begins now! In 3... 2... 1...

Well, well, well... what do we have here? As some household members jet off to work, a handful of sims remain at home.

Jeds and Rob, who are co-workers on the Athlete track, aren’t needed at work until about 2PM. Sam and Fox, who are on the Entertainer track together, have a day off! Synaes and Feesh are also on the Entertainer track — but, if you can recall correctly, they’ve both skipped a day of work. Sam and Fox were the ones to be promoted. It’s Ash’s first day on the Entertainer track if you’re wondering.

Jeds is cleaning up Bandoro’s leftover hot dogs. Damn it, Bandifam.

There’s a new bar in town: Sloshed at Sam’s. Day drinking. This is the VoicePoint we know and love.

As requested, a bar has officially been placed in the backyard. Sam is the first to play bartender. Rob and Jeds have some drank before their shift starts. Fox and Sam help themselves since, y’know, it’s their day off.

Can you just imagine Rob and Jeds working later? Considering they’re athletes-in-training, all I see is a Moscow Mule all over the basketball court. Or if you’re Jeds, maybe a Sex on the Beach decorating the hockey rink.

Rob and Fox having some quality bro time.

As Rob and Jeds head off to be boss-ass athletes (lol, ass-letes), everybody else comes home just in time for dinner. Synaes loads the dishwasher, and Kal tosses prepares a salad.

The front door is also wide open. Were y’all born in a barn? Heat ain’t free.

Feesh decides to turn on the stereo system, and everyone starts dancing. Except for Sam. Kal whispers a secret to Synaes.

And what’s this?! The first .gif of VoicePoint Sims! How do we feel about this, fam? More in the future? Never again?

The dancing and socializing goes on for hours, so long that Rob and Jeds are now home. Kal and Rob are caught up in a [Bro Hug (with Kal)] moment.

Also, let’s all observe Tera in the back, casually on the computer.

Ash shakes her butt in Jeds’ personal bubble. Bandoro rants to Feesh about something. Tera dances like he’s hanging up a painting. Sam be feelin’ dat beat.

Just in case anyone is wondering where Fox is... he’s alone at the neighborhood park, staring at a trash can.

“Could I nest in here?”

- Probably Fox.

After returning my viewer to their mini-party, I see this. Bandoro and Feesh are getting awfully comfortable on the couch. Maybe Feesh is just wondering what Bandoro had for dinner. Who am I to say?

Well, okay.

You guys can see what’s happening here... do I really need to caption this screenshot? Feesh grabs Bandoro for a couch-kiss. Tera is chatting up Kal and Synaes. Ash and Sam dance to keep Jeds from doing more push-ups.

Guess that didn’t work.

Things are about to get real awkward in here. Syn uses the [Caress Cheek (Tera)] action. Gurl. Gurrrrrrrrl.

This apparently pisses off Kal. Her and Syn’s friendship percentage takes a major hit.

Kal leaves the mini-party to [Hide from the World].

A few moments later, Rob comes in to [Cheer Up (Kal)].

“S’k, bro. S’k.”

- Definitely Rob.

Bandoro makes the obvious late-night/early-morning snack: grilled hot dogs. Rob appreciates it. The mini-party dies down.

What the fuck is this? Some kind of slumber party? I wonder if this is how the VoicePoint Meet-up will go. A big, weird pajama party in which Tera has cramps. And everyone tries to pile in Ash’s bed.

What will happen on the next episode of VoicePoint Sims!? Stay tuned for Day 8.

[justkalaskathings-blog]

VoicePoint Sims: Day 6

Oh, hello! I didn’t see you there! I was off making some peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Y’know, to assault Bandoro. 

Today is Day 6. Almost a week, you guys. Can you believe it? Within six days, the sims have managed to catch fire, die and be resurrected, eat a million bowls of peas, make out, shit themselves, and dance like weirdos in public. What else could possibly happen? Oh, shit. Maybe I shouldn’t jinx it. 

The show begins in 3… 2… 1…

What’s this?! Jeds, Bandoro, and Non-Cosplay Tera out for a jog? Are they all running for a functioning toilet? Are they running from a Feesh dip-kiss? 

Okay, okay, I’ll get to it.

THEY’RE RUNNING BECAUSE THEY’RE SO FUCKING SHOOK ABOUT THE NEW VOICEPOINT HOUSE. /obnoxiousairhorn

Yes! I don’t know if this is a surprise to you guys, but I did mention that due to the number of sims under one roof, they would need (a) a serious home renovation or (b) a new, dope-ass house. I figured the original home was a bit tacky and low rent, so… I went with the latter. 

Here’s to a “clean” start! Get it?

Jeds is already breaking in the new house with her Power Abs routine. Also… notice her new leggings and kicks! You’ll soon see that the sims have had mini makeovers. 

Tera is serving up a salad. He cuts his finger… I think. Bandoro doesn’t trust his buddy’s cooking, so he’s making his own food. And where the hell is everyone else? Well, I hate to break it to you guys, but everyone else died in a fire. That’s what really happened to the old house.

 Kidding. 

I don’t think anyone would believe that.  Not without screenshots, anyway.

Everyone else is at work! Because there are at least four different career tracks in the house, the sims will have different work schedules.

Here comes Sam, Fox, Synaes, and Feesh! These four, as you know, have started the Entertainer track — meaning they’re all co-workers. 

I know I can’t really prove it, but Fox is under there nesting. Looks like he has claimed this room. Or maybe he’s just cold. Or playing hide and seek.

Either way, all I hear is Fox and his infamous ehehehehehehe.

Synaes is playing The Sims™, and Bandoro is sad about something. He’s been pouting around the house.

And Fox is the first one to find the pool! I say that like it might’ve been hard to find, but it’s really just there. Like right out-fucking-side.

He also thinks he’s being sneaky as Jeds comes out to investigate the backyard. She’s probably looking for another place to do sit-ups.

Because Synaes found a place right next to the computer desk. She’s also doing that shit in heels. Dedication is her middle name.

Ding-dong.

Look who how has arrived! It’s Rob and Ash! Hey, Ash… are those galaxy leggings? Because yo butt is out of this world. Sorry, saw a shot. Had to take it. 

Kal, Jeds, Tera, and Feesh crowd around Rob in the kitchen. They like this guy. Rob, you popular. You fancy.

Meanwhile, Ash doesn’t concern herself with the others. This show is just too good. I think Feesh left it on KFun Sho (the Kids Network channel) and then went to talk Rob’s ear off.  

To the pool! Feesh, Jeds, Rob, and Kal go for a night swim. 

Feesh heads to bed soon after. Too much water for the Feeeeeesh, I guess. Rob stays to chat up Kal and Jeds.

Speaking of butts that are out of this world, Kal thinks Jeds could have it.

Gurl.

Jeds goes inside to get a snack. These two be hangin’. Rob is probably wondering why this bitch has her sunglasses on though. The moon ain’t that bright, shit.

The sun is up! Bandoro has grilled hot dogs for breakfast. Jeds and Fox enjoy their dogs by the pool. Synaes is serious about her fitness game.

/foxhug.

Sam is into it.

Rise and shine. Kal hasn’t changed out of her swimsuit. 

Ash is jamming out upstairs! How cute.

Everybody is about to head out for the day! Gotta make that money to support Bandoro’s hot dog habit. Actual hot dogs. Like right there on the table. Not… yeah. Don’t make it weird. Feesh looks like he’s about to shower for work, Bandoro and Tera are makin’ a game plan (they work together), and Jeds and Fox are —

Wait.

Just what are you two doing?! 

Sharing seductive secrets with Fox? Gurl.Gurl. Aren’t your secrets kept in the bathroom for Tera to barge in on? 

What could she be whispering to him? I mean, what information requires a bracing hand-hold before work?

“Bandoro’s hot dogs are shit.” “Kal checked out my ass earlier… I think we’re all game.” “I liked your flannel better.”

Feesh and Synaes actually refuse to go to work. Jeds’ shift doesn’t start until later, so she’s sleeping again. Ash and Rob don’t start work yet.

Rub a dub dub, Synaes in a tub.

For whatever reason, Synaes decides that she needs to do the dishes in the bathroom. She walks in on Rob. Good times. 

I think I’m going to end it here at the beginning of Day 7. I realize that I went a little “over” in terms of what was actually Day 6, but I wanted to include a few more things. Cheers!

VoicePoint Sims: Day 5 (PART TWO)

Guess what, fam!? Day 5 (PART TWO) is here! 

I really appreciate your feedback, and I can’t believe that this series has turned into a thing. Your comments keep it all thrivin’ — especially your predictions of what would happen during Day 5 (PART TWO). Let’s review them, shall we? 

“What do you think will happen during this episode?!”

All of that sounds good to me. The show begins in 3... 2... 1...

Ahhh, a lovely morning. The sun isn’t even up yet. The sims are trickling home after a night of karaoke, weird dancing, and that infamous Sakura punch that made things happen.  The sims haven’t slept a wink — not even our Bandoro.

Kal, Feesh, Synaes, and Fox are gathered around the garbage bin, chillin’. Feesh is talking about Bandoro. Fox keeps bringing up food.

Bandoro joins them — this guy and his impeccable timing. He must’ve been getting ready for bed. That’s probably what’s going on here... Yeah, let’s go with that.

Everyone eventually goes inside to eat or sleep. Y’know, what people usually do after a night out. Synaes survived the making of a grilled cheese sandwich.

Synaes is reading, and it looks like Kal is pretty sick of Bandoro’s fucking face. Is the VoicePoint Sim House experiencing animosity for the first time? What do we think of this?

After their little spat, which was apparently related to ghosts and garbage judging from the conversation icons, Bandoro goes downstairs to occupy Tera’s bed (he wasn’t in it at the time). Kal angrily makes a motherfucking peanut butter and jelly sandwich, cuts that bitch diagonally, and legit goes after him.

Feesh comes in to see just what the fuck is going on. Bandoro clenches his fists. Ahhhh, I want to know what even started this. They are both in pretty bad moods though. Like their sleep levels are in the red.

And Kal just the used [Imply Mother is a Llama (Bandoro)] action. Savage. Shooketh.

Bandoro uses the [Provoke (Kal)] action. You guys. That is the sim equivalent of ‘come at me, bro.’ This is not going to end well. She’s going to drop her sandwich.

‘Is he serious right now?’

- Kal thinks to herself.

After their fight, Bandoro throws a full blown tantrum around the house. He stomps on bags of garbage, throws his fists in the air, the whole shebang. I don’t know if this makes me a terrible person, but I am crying with laughter.

Until this starts happening. He suddenly slows down and collapses onto the floor. At first I thought he was starting his daily seista — because y’know, just Bandoro things. I then hovered over the action icon to see what was happening: [Dying from Cardiac Explosion]. 

I SHIT YOU NOT I CANNOT MAKE THIS UP GUYS. BANDORO GOT SO ANGRY WITH KAL AND HER STUPID PB&J ASS THAT HIS HEART STARTED EXPLODING.

As a side note, holy shit that mod is making things happen. What even is even happening even?

No, Bandieeeeeeee. :(

The Grim Reaper has arrived. 

Feesh makes the [Plead for (Bandoro)’s Life] action. Jeds is wailing at Bandoro’s passing. Tera is crying behind the Grim Reaper, and Kal is just out of frame, probably feeling like a huge bitch. Like... colossal bitch level. How rude.

And here I was, super worried about her dropping the sandwich.

That escalated so quickly.

A sad day.

So sad that Fox, Sam, and Synaes slept in.

Wait a second... 

Feesh’s pleading works! Bandoro rises up from the floor, covered in a silver light! Synaes, Fox, and Sam didn’t need to wake up after all.  I felt like punching myself in the head for missing his resurrection, but I honestly dropped my screenshotting-guard down as I didn’t think he’d actually be saved. If you’ve played The Sims, you know that it’s not a super common thing.

“I just saved your tantrum-throwing, Kal-hating life!”

- Just things Feesh would probably say.

Omfg, these two. 

I’d like to note that this isn’t the typical [Hug (Friendly)] action that we’ve been seeing around the house. Feesh has used the [Embrace (Bandoro)] action.

“Bro, you like... just died and got resurrected!” “So dope. Lol, selfie?” 

?!!?!??!!!!!11one

What the actual? Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? I don’t really know how to caption this? I guess Feesh decided it was time to live in the moment and dip-kiss Bandoro. Just two dudes. Dip-kissing. Nothing else to see here. Move along. 

Tera looks calmed by the situation. 

I am relieved to announce that the rest of the day was chill. The Feesh/Bandoro (Beesh? Fandoro?) moment might’ve been just a moment. We’ll have to wait and see.

Syn is out exploring the lot! What a cute moment.

Are you kidding me? I guess I’m not too surprised. Maybe I should buy random skill-building books to see if their book club studies the shit out them.

Jeds and Fox have a private conversation in the bathroom, and Tera barges in all awkward. Y u do dis, Tera?

Oh. I see y u do dis.  You do you, Tera. You do you.

That’s the end of Day 5 (PART TWO). What’d you guys think? Let me know in the Discord chat!

[justkalaskathings-blog]

VoicePoint Sims: Day 5 (PART ONE)

Hello! And welcome back to the VoicePoint Sims! It is now Day 5, and our sims are finally getting their shit together. How you might ask? I’m going to bore you guys for like three seconds.

Mods

This a tad important, and y’all might’ve seen me talking about it in chat. I added some mods to enable true autonomy / free will. If you’ve played the Sims 4 (or any other Sims game for that matter), you know that sims can have free will, but their interactions are pretty limited:

“Sims will not do certain things unless directed to by the player, even if Free Will is enabled. Some examples are looking for a job, asking another Sim to move in, proposing engagement or marriage, and woohoo.“

They also cannot repair broken objects — which, as you saw in Day 4, is just plain shitty.

With that said, I have added two mods. One of the mods allows the once-restricted interactions like marriage, fighting, repairing broken toilets, sexy time, etc. The other mods amplifies how a sim reacts to or treats other sims depending on the given mood. People call it the personality mod. 

Careers

Despite these modifications, the sims are still unable to use the “find a job” action on their own. And because we don’t want anyone to starve to death (this isn’t the Hunger Games), every sim will begin a career track. It’s up to them to actually go to work and get promoted though. Or y’know, not get fired.

Fox - Entertainer track. Feesh - Entertainer (Comedian) track. Sam - Entertainer track. Synaes- Entertainer track. Tera - Tech Guru track. Bandoro - Tech Guru track. Jeds - Athletic track. Kal - Painter track.

Okeeee, that’s all for now.

I have divided Day 5 into two parts. So much shit has gone on, and it would’ve turn into a mega post. 

Let’s get on with the show.

It’s a filthy morning. The kitchen sink is still broken and has leaked onto the tacky-ass tiles, forming puddles that cover about 60% of the floor. It looks like two meals were started. And abandoned. Cool.

Fox eats bowl of peas for breakfast. Jeds walks through the puddles in her socks.

I guess Fox, Jeds, and Kal like to hang out in Tera’s room while he’s still asleep. I really wish I had an explanation for this screenshot. They were just talking about sports.

The rest of the house is starting to stir! Sam, who slept on the couch, isn’t in a rush to get up. Bandoro, on the other hand, has passed out on the floor. I mean... at least he’s not in the way?

Look who else is awake! Feesh says good morning to Jeds.

Jeds shows the boys how to start the day properly. Also, Bandoro is awake!

I like this team work. Jeds mops while Bandoro repairs.

Bandoro has passed out again. At least he was awake long enough to change out of his pajamas. And fix a sink. Proud of you, Bandifam. Bandoze off. Bandreaming.

Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. Tera is fixing the toilet! What a contributing member of sim society. Also, I like how Jeds is involved in the repairs. She’s like their foreman. It’s like she’s played a strong, female commander before.

What’s this? A group outing of some sort? As if to celebrate the fact that someone finally fixed the fucking crapper?

That’s exactly what this is. By the way, I didn’t take that screenshot... I was so amazed by the festival that I forgot to take any shots of them arriving. Sue me.

Lemme explain what's going on here. In the Sims 4, you will receive notifications about special events or festivals that your sims can attend. A little box for the “Romance Festival” popped up, and I figured why not? There are only so many push-ups, bowls of peas, and book club meetings that we can take, right?

Everyone arrives in a great mood. No one has soiled themselves, thankfully. That’s always good.

I feel like we need one of those “safety tickers” — [it’s been 8 hours and 43 minutes since the last incident.] Do not fuck this up, guys. Y’all are in public now.

The group gets separated rather quickly. Synaes decides to hang out with some locals and their unique fashion choices.

Feesh goes to the bar to order a drink. Or two. I’m pretty sure that the other one is his, too. Makes sense.

And across the festival, Sam and Bandoro are chatting up a local lady. That chick is wearing yellow gloves. I’m into it.

Bandoro has got mad game tonight. He’s confident in his favorite gray sweater, got that swagger, just totally in his element tonight. And what could go wrong with Sam as a wingman?

Oh.

The place is getting fuller by the minute. Kal manages to find the boys through the crowd. As you can see, Bandoro looks absolutely thrilled to see her. He’s making that ‘are-you-high-or-something’ face.

This is probably the face he makes before responding to me via the Discord server. I’m okay with it.

At least Tera is happy to see Kal.

Fox has leaped onto the gigantic karaoke stage to sing his heart out. Duh. Sam is also on stage... for support.

Synaes and Bandoro chat up the festival's hired talent. He keeps ignoring Bandoro to use the [Compliment (Appearance)] interaction on Synaes. This is so good.

Fox hungry. Fox eat.

Bandoro begins to lead an arm-dragging dance. Jeds runs to join in. 

Also, some of you might notice those symbols above their heads. Those are just to note who is in the active group. I might mod them out. Kind of distracting.

Everyone except Fox and Synaes begin taking Sakura shots. This punch apparently makes things happen. 

Makes things happen.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. So, after taking the Sakura shot, Feesh goes over to Bandoro for a chat. ‘Okay, harmless,’ I’m thinking. 

Then I hover over the little interaction box to see what would be next [Joke About Getting Together (Bandoro)]. IS THIS HAPPENING RIGHT MEOW?!

Bandoro just laughs about it like, “yeah, that would be funny.” Jeds is walkin’ by because she knows something is up. 

Or she was struttin’ over to Fox who uses: [Ask a Risque Question (Jeds)]. WHAT WAS IN THAT SAKURA TEA?! 

IT’S. 

MAKING. 

THINGS. 

HAPPEN.

I’m going to end Day 5 (PART ONE) here, folks! What do you think will happen next? Is love in the air, or is everyone just relieved that Tera fixed the toilet?

Thanks for tuning in!

VoicePoint Sims: Day 4

And I’m not kidding. Day 4 turned out to be a fucking mess. Like people actually making messes. On themselves. Sound weird enough? This whole thing is on the weirder side, so let’s jump right in. 

Behind? Catch up! Day 3 | Day 2 | Day 1

In the last post, I said I would address the sleeping arrangements... there’s nothing to really talk about yet. Synaes and Jeds occupied the downstairs couches. Tera, Fox, Kal, and Feesh got their own beds. Sam and Bandoro just wondered around the house all night.

Day 4 has a quiet start. Feesh wakes up to have some leftover macaroni and cheese with Sam — who grumpily pokes at his own pudding. He never went to bed.

I think Feesh is trying to put Sam in a better mood. What a good guy! Kal and Jeds have woken up! And they begin raiding the kitchen together. It’s a pleasant, slow-paced morning here at the VoicePoint House. Today is going to be a wonderful day.

Or fucking not. 

Synaes has woken up to make herself a plate of something supposedly super fucking flammable. She manages to catch herself on fire. I also like how Sam is flinching in the background. 

GURL DAT ASS BE ON FIRE.  

Jeds whips out her fire extinguisher and begins to save Syn’s life.

Fox emerges from his room, clad in his classy-ass robe, to point at the fire just in case no one knows where to look.

Bandoro comes downstairs to see what in tarnation is going on. Who dares to wake up him up!? It better be important!

"Excellent.”

- Probably Fox.

Kal steps in to help Jeds out! I guess their fondness of that firefighting film is paying off. Bandoro decides he needs to gtfo. I also find it great that the sims are changing out of their pajamas while Synaes is on fire. Looking at you, Bandoro, Tera, and Fox.

A defeated — but alive — Synaes goes to wash up. Also, someone broke the fucking bathroom sink, and there’s water everywhere. Oh, the toilet is also broken too. I didn’t catch who did what. 

Everyone in the house is pretty tense given the fire. And I’m not just saying that... the actual mood is “tense.” 

The stove is fucked. The sims who woke up as a result of the fire decide to eat “instant” meals to satisfy themselves. Bandoro is having cereal, Fox is having a mystery sandwich (looks like ham), and Tera is eating A BOWL OF PEAS.

New “friends” alert! Kal and Jeds celebrate their firefighting victory with a selfie. Sam has finally passed out.

Kal thinks that washing the sink will somehow fix the broken faucet. 

Annnnnnnnnnnd, Feesh has broken the kitchen sink. At least he looks sad about it. I think we need to take an inventory of the house appliances really quick:

Refrigerator - functioning.  Kitchen sink - fucked. Stove - fucked. Bathroom sink - clean but fucked Toilet - fucked. Bathtub - not yet fucked.

This cannot be good. 

Feesh just soiled himself. Not good. This is the beginning of the end. The end of bodily control.

/sniff. Just Fox things.

Synaes also soiled herself and fell asleep on one of the couches.

And Tera. Let’s all just observe the puddle.

Kal too.

There’s also a huge puddle of piss upstairs. This is a tragedy. #brokensimtoilet #neverforget

The rest of the day went as you’d expect. People — I think almost everyone — kept soiling themselves and fighting over the shower. I hope that the “free will” setting allows them to repair things. Finger crossed... because Day 4 was truly a shit show.

VoicePoint Sims: Day 3

Guess what’s in store for today? A lot. While Day 2′s highlight reel consisted of drinking water and reading for four hours, Day 3 is just a ball of excitement. Balls of excitement. Get it? Balls. Cheap comedy.  

If you need to catch up on this “series,” here are some helpful links: Day 1, Day 2. 

Y’all spoketh, I listened. Upon request, two members have been thrown into added to the VoicePoint House. Who did I choose? You guys probably already know, but I’m trying to make this a moment. And seriously, look how ominous that screenshot is. That shit is so legit.

Duh-DUN...  Duh-DUN...  Duh-DUN...

It’s Bandoro and Fox! And they’re giving each other some serious fucking side eye. 

Syn wakes up first, so she greets the newcomers in the kitchen.The three of them chat. Shit’s chill. 

What the fuck is with Fox and Bandoro and their side-glancing? Also, Syn is captivated by the kitchen sink. 

Feesh woke up to greet Bandoro and Fox. This screenshot says more than I ever could. 

Fox only gets a measly wave from Feesh. 

Kal decided to join the others at the table. She’s obviously getting hydrated. 

Sam, Tera (who’s still in his cosplay), and Jeds don’t really give a shit about their new roommates. 

This screenshot is a lot more intimate-looking than it should be. I think Tera was just saying good morning to Synaes. It’s nice.

To assert some dominance, Jeds decides to do some push-ups before speaking to the new roommates. 

Bonding time! The six sims you see here are finishing up a film about firefighting. Riveting, I know. Feesh is still talking Fox’s ear off. Kal and Jeds have their own thing going on. Tera is sitting. Sam is hydrating.

Meanwhile, Synaes has invited Bandoro to join her book club.  Are we surprised by this at all?

Fox decided to hang out in the upstairs library (lol, it’s really just a couch and small bookshelf at the top of the stairs). Feesh follows him. Tera and Sam follow Feesh.

I like to imagine that Fox is reading poetry to Synaes. He’s actually been singing around the house too.

Okay, so this is where this shit starts. When I took this screenshot, I was like... is Feesh inspecting Bandoro’s nails  — which, in real life, I guess would also make sense? I hovered over the action to see what was actually going on, and it said: Share Secret (with Bandoro). I SHIT YOU NOT THIS BITCH IS ALREADY SHARING SECRETS.

AND THEN THIS HAPPENS. Feesh asks Bandoro to take a selfie with him. I’m just imagining their secret-telling session.

“So, can you keep a secret?” “Uhhm, of course.” “Tera goes jogging in his cosplay at 4 AM.” “Scandalous!” “I know. Selfie?”

Also, I’d like to mention that these two are the first “friends” in the house. Bandoro just arrived. How did this even happen? Even though Feesh talked Fox’s ear off during that firefighting film, they’re still just acquaintances. 

Kal is watching the firefighting film for the third fucking time. And despite the five open seats, Jeds decides to stand and watch it with her. Makes sense.

I don’t know why, but I love this shot. Bandoro is in awe over something that Feesh has said, the channel has been changed to something other than firefighting, and Fox is coming downstairs to hang with Jeds and Kal. 

Fox tellin’ Jeds a joke. I like it.

THIS SCENE RIGHT HERE. After Sam goes upstairs to attend Syn’s fourth book club meeting of the day, Feesh asks Bandoro to take another selfie with him. Fox is sitting between Jeds and Kal on the couch, chatting them both up. Classic Fox. 

“Here, let’s take one with my phone now.”

And so they have to take one with Bandoro’s phone this time. I cannot with these two. 

“Ohhh, I look cute in that one.”

The day ends with Fox cooking grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner, Kal and Feesh gossiping and waiting to be fed, Synaes doing sit-ups, Bandoro and Tera talking about gardening, Sam reading somewhere in the house, and Jeds getting a glass of water from the bathroom sink. 

What are the sleeping arrangements?

I haven’t gotten to that point! I am adding an extra bedroom downstairs since the house is jam-packed now. I guess we’ll wait and see. At the beginning of the Day 4 post, I’ll make sure to include any madness that occurs during the night. Signing off!

VoicePoint Sims: Day 2

I’m not going to lie. Day 2 was hella uneventful, but let’s just dive right in. I’ll let you experience it for yourself. 

Sam and Synaes woke up first and chilled in the kitchen for two hours. Good times. After that, Tera, Jeds, and Feesh joined them at the dining table where Sam served macaroni and cheese for breakfast. I’m starting to think that Sam will be the house chef.

Meanwhile, Kal is tired from doing fucking push-ups at 4 AM.

Tera helps himself to another plate of macaroni and cheese. Synaes and Jeds begin their book club meeting. It lasts four hours.

Synaes and Sam wake up Kal with a friendly debate on llamas (sims love talking about llamas, look it up). Tera be chillin’.

Sam is looking for a book so he can join the in-house book club. Nothing else is really happening.

Synaes and Jeds be thirsty. I told you nothing eventful happened on Day 2. This is a fucking highlight. 

Oh yeah, except Sam came downstairs to give Jeds a hug, lmao. Synaes is still just drinking water. 

And Tera jogged around the house a few times... in his cosplay.  I love that sims usually change into their ‘athletic outfit’ before exercising, and the Tera sim is just like, “meh, fuck it.”

Thanks for tuning in to Day 2. Let’s hope that something other than water drinking happens on Day 3.

VoicePoint Sims: Day 1

So, it’s Day 1 of madness (aka VoicePoint members as sims). Before we take a look at who has moved into this sassy-ass, three-bedroom house, let’s go through the grounds rules I’ve made for myself:

I cannot control any of the sims — not even myself. Things will get weird. Let that shit ride itself out. Free will fo’ lyfe.

I have to document the goods. Take screenshots. Maybe livestream.

Okay, cool. Let’s see how this goes.

Everyone — standing around awkwardly in front of the house. We’ve got Sam, Kal, Synaes, Jeds, Tera, and Feesh. I like that Jeds isn’t facing anyone. 

Semi-important if you’re actually wondering why I’m talking about myself in the third person: Yeah, I’m just going to say Kal when talking about my sim. If I say “lulz, I cooked everyone dinner tonight,” it’ll be weirder than it needs to be. Cool, glad we cleared that up.

Synaes and Tera eventually went inside to chat. She’s already slow-blinking at him. Also, how much do we love his dedication to cosplay?

Feesh and Kal joined the other two inside. Kal can’t remember to close the fucking door. 

Feesh is already trying to hug everyone in sight. He’s starting with Tera.

Cut to Sam and Jeds outside. Looks like they’re... breathing fresh air? 

I think... Synaes is starting a book club?

Feesh hugging more people. Tera stares on... knowingly? Lovingly? What do we think is going to happen, people?

Tera has started disinfecting surfaces around the house. 

Feesh has followed Tera into the bathroom. I have a feeling that this will also become a trend.

Their first meal, lol. Someone eventually cooked! Sam served some grilled cheese sandwiches.  

Y’know, I was kind of worried that these sims would starve to death (since I’m not controlling anything except for the camera key). Good on you, Sam.

More reading... Jeds, Synaes, and Tera.

Around bedtime, Feesh tries to sneak into several beds. I can’t even make this up, guys. 

Sam’s bed included. 

Feesh ends up on the upstairs sofa.

Tera and Kal have fallen asleep on the other sofas. While everyone has changed into their pajamas, Tera refuses to change out of his cosplay for any reason.

About the sleeping arrangements — they’re living in a three-bedroom house. Each bedroom has one, queen-sized bed. Sims won’t share beds unless they’re technically “friends.” So far Jeds, Synaes, and Sam have claimed the bedrooms. 

Kal getting her fitness in. At 4 AM.

That’s it for Day 1! That’s all for now. If you want to see something added, let me know.
