Sims In Bloom: Generation 2 Pt. 87 (Ghost Night at the Salty Paws Saloon)

Though rare for bars to welcome ghosts with discounted prices, the Salty Paws Saloon in Fisherman's Wharf wanted to embrace any form of sim who dared spend simoleons at their middling establishment.

Their new Ghost Night was an experiment promoted in the Ambrosia Society's final newsletter, and Heather and Conrad had come on a mission of their own.

"You really think it's possible the man you met outside the historical museum could be here?" wondered Heather. "At Ghost Night?"

Conrad shrugged. "I haven't seen or heard trace of him since that night, and without his name I don't know how to find him. Besides, you're the one who suggested he might be a ghost."

"Yeah, but I was kidding."

Brindleton Bay had little in the way of nightlife. The Calico Lounge and Yacht Club down the road was where higher society danced and socialized, but spending the night surrounded by ghosts in a dive bar was just fine for Heather and Conrad.

In the early days of their relationship, when Ash was still a baby, they'd come here after watching seals at the pier. They'd share a basket of fries and maybe watch a sportsball game or two on the big screen. It was even where Ash learned to pull himself up to stand, and would always be a sentimental place for them.

Now with busy careers, two kids, and the added stress Conrad tried to keep to himself, it had been too long since they'd been out together. Considering their laid-back dating style, it was unsurprising they'd chosen such an untraditional night out.

Conrad pulled out his phone so they could mug for a selfie. "After everything we've seen with the Ambrosia Society newsletters, are you not just a little curious?"

"Of course I am. I want you to find an answer to at least one mystery taking up space in your mind. You're so stressed lately with work, the kids, and now with George Brindleton, closing the book on something would be good. And I want to help you, like always. It's just...What are you going to do if you find out the old man is a ghost?"

"Find out what he wants, I guess? His unfinished business."

They were both a little hungry, but the food at the Salty Paw was usually terrible, so they settled for sharing a bowl of chips from seats at the bar. The place filled first with human patrons, but as the night wore on, several ethereal beings floated into the pub.

One took a seat at the empty barstool to Heather's right. He gave them both respectful nods, and they returned the polite greeting, unsure what to say next. What sort of small talk were you supposed to make with a ghost?

But this man took an immediate interest in Heather, taking care of the small talk on his own. "Good evening, miss. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance. My friends call me Felix Psyded, Esquire. Lawyer, entrepreneur, and founder of the University of Britechester."

Conrad smirked. "They call you all that? I think I remember reading urban legends about you when I was in college."

"I've read them. None are true. I haven't stayed haunting the halls of my own university. I've been trying to visit as many places as I could."

"As a ghost?"

Felix turned up his nose at Conrad's surprise. "And what do your friends call you?"

"My friends call me Conrad. Pretty much everyone else calls me Sargent Gordon."

"Well, Sargent, what brings you out to pay full price for drinks on a night for sims in my predicament? Are you here to remember lost souls in the spirit of the day? Maybe a war hero?"

"My fiancee, Heather, and I are on a date tonight."

"And we're looking for someone. He might be a ghost. If he is...maybe you know him?"

The ethereal lawyer nodded warmly. "Miss Heather, I've been a ghost for many years and I've met many like me. What's his name?"

"That's the thing, we don't know it. He said he's lived in Brindleton Bay all his life, came out of the museum and offered to show Conrad around the lighthouse after hours."

"It's hard to get far without a name, and I haven't spent that much time here over the years. What does he look like?"

"Well, he's not...translucent," said Conrad. "He's elderly, tanned skin, wavy hair, mustache...I met him once outside the historical museum but I haven't seen him since. I haven't been able to get out to Deadgrass Isle much lately, either, but no one at the museum knows him, and I'm starting to think if he's not a ghost, I imagined him completely."

Felix sniffed. "Sounds very generic. Maybe it is all in your head."

"Forget it. I don't see him here, anyway."

"I'm not saying I couldn't help you. I've become a bit of a ghost historian in the many, many years since I expired."

"Why haven't you crossed over?" asked Heather. "Do you have unfinished business?"

"I most certainly do! Today is the anniversary of my death - I died all the way back in 1915, before this day was even known as Remembrance Day. And I came here to drink myself into a stupor so I can forget how I died far too soon."

"Your unfinished business is to just drink your pain away every year?"

"No, Sargent. I pine for the life I could have lived! I had just opened the University of Britechester with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and the linguistics professor told a very good joke. I laughed harder than I intended. You might say I became hysterical - very unbecoming in my day - and the next thing I knew, the Grim Reaper himself was offering to help me cross over. I told him thank you, but no thank you. Even if I couldn't live as a human, I wasn't going anywhere."

"That's a terrible reason to die, because something was funny," said Heather, as she and Conrad both took a drink of their cream colas in perfect sync. But Conrad finished his in a single gulp, and Heather noticed.

Felix sighed. "That's not even the saddest part. When I died, I lost my love. She remarried another man and had a family and all but forgot me, while I spent her years on earth unable to move on. She's spending her afterlife with her husband, and I can't say I blame her..."

"That's rough," acknowledged Conrad. "I'm sorry."

"I would be willing to keep helping you, if you can point me in the direction of someone who's here for the Ambrosia Society. I've heard the Watcher's put an end to emotional deaths, and I can laugh as hard as I like without keeling over a second time! I was hoping to finally meet someone who can make ambrosia."

Heather smiled. "I could do that. I've learned how! I haven't made it yet, but we have the ingredients. We took the society up on their challenge for our own reasons, but we could always get more ingredients later. Will you help us figure out the identity of the old man at the museum if I make you some ambrosia?"

"I would be honoured to help you, Miss Heather. Though I do have one more imposition to place on you. Would you allow me to stay in your home tonight? Brindleton Bay has little in the way of empty rooms, and I would only ask for a humble sofa to rest."

Conrad wavered. His phone beeped and he checked the call display, cringing when he recognized the San Myshuno area code in the unlisted number.

"Is that work?" asked Heather. "Do you need to answer that?"

Ximena had finally returned the call he'd placed yesterday in frustration, but she'd waited until the evening, when he was more likely to be with his family. He put the phone back in his pocket. Ximena would have to wait, and Rafa, too. Wherever he was.

"It's not work. It's an unlisted number, probably just spam." He turned to their new ghostly acquaintance with a frown. "Listen, we've got kids at home, Mr. Psyded."

"Esquire. Felix Psyded, Esquire," complained the apparition. "And I'm very good with children. I'd like to have one or two of my own someday, should I get to live again."

Heather and Conrad stood to speak quietly. "Ash and Lavender will both be in bed by the time we get home," she reasoned.

"And when the kids wake up in the morning?"

"Maybe...maybe meeting a real ghost is how I can start talking to Ash about life and death. He's so smart - too smart for his own good sometimes, I think. But if he learns about ambrosia and death flowers now, maybe one day if he ever hears about the curse, it'll all be easier to talk about."

Felix poked his head in with interest. "Who's curse?"

Conrad snapped his head back. "Just a minute, Felix Psyded, Esquire."

"You're not having a very good night. Are you, Sargent?"

"I did notice you kept giving moon eyes to my fiancee."

"Both of you, stop! We'd be happy to have you over tonight, Mr. Psyded. Esquire. But please don't get off on the wrong foot with Conrad or come home and scare our kids."

"You have my word, I won't possess a single piece of furniture!"

They spent a few more hours meeting several ghosts who made their way to the bar for cheap drinks, hoping against hope that the man from the museum might eventually turn up. But after midnight, they gave up waiting and settled their tab, bringing a giggling Felix with them.

"I'm so excited, I'm vibrating. Can you hear me?"

But Heather and Conrad were quieter. She knew something was bothering him, and she wanted to know what it was. ->

<- Previous Chapter | Gen 2 Start | Gen 1 Summary | Gen 1 Start

NOTE: I didn't initially set out to schedule this post on Remembrance Day. This is just where the last week of Reaper Rewards stuff fit in my existing storyline, but how fitting, in a way. 🌺

NOTE 2: On one hand, Conrad should be romancing her extra hard considering he's lying, but if he tries over-romancing unflirty Heather she'll know something's up even more strongly. So they get a dive bar date night to fulfill the last tasks of the Reaper Rewards challenge.

Elsewhere Cassie and Struan attempt to gain ground with Patchy, Cassie makes a startling discovery - and Struan asks her to maybe… do an activity together -

- so it’s a panicked run from Cassie to a woohoo locale.

As both their permissions have ‘yes’ to woohoo with fellow contestants - and my settings are at ‘moderate’ so that you need a reasonably high relationship with the other sim for woohoo to successfully occur - I accepted it.

Looks like it was a good time?

Delphine wants the basil to know what’s up! And Lilac - maybe it’s best not to joke about being in a simulation to the PARANOID pixel?

Fortunately Jerrod seems to think it’s all in good fun. Far too ridiculous to believe, right? Utter nonsense.

As there’s by now some leftovers in the fridge (and Lilac’s infamous cooler in the corner), we spare Cassie from cooking the evening meal.

Plus it’s time to par - oh gosh, Lilac.

I can’t let you go looking like that. Let’s grab something else from CAS.

For Lilac’s final mandated friendly interaction, she takes a selfie with each sim. Below we have:

Briar (yellow robot) and Jayla (white robot)

Cassie and Struan

Delphine and Jerrod

Our lil witch takes on the keg once more aaand seems to succeed - until she doesn’t. Milk may indeed be the safer option, Cassie.

The party is�� weird. Everyone is determined to gather in the kitchen for some reason, so once again the Watcher is forced to sacrifice her screencaps and activate the social club.

I agree, Jerrod. This sucks.

(In my playtesting save, the group had a great time and stayed in the room where all the fun stuff was - I really don’t know what was different for this crew.)

If only you had joined us, Patchy.

Too late, Felix. The party’s over - and that’s assuming it ever truly began.

While everyone else sleeps, Lilac (who has the SELDOM SLEEPY reward trait) sought out reassurance from Patchy that he would be more professional, should this roll ever come around again. And that is where we will leave Household One for this round.

(Note: for this round’s table, I will collate everyone’s scores after the final day of Household Three then send the bottom three home. The households will once again be randomised for the next round. Therefore hypothetically everyone from this group could make it through - or all three eliminated sims could come from here - depending on the rest of the round.)

The Surprise

Simeon: Is everything ok? I came as fast as I could when I got your message.

L.: Come with me: I need to show you something.

Simeon: Wait, why are we headed toward my house?

L.: Sssh...No questions!

Everyone: Surprise!

Simeon: W-What? This IS a surprise! You are all here! Even Felix!

Felix: What's a little necromancy between friends, hm? Happy birthday!

Morgyn: Did you suspect anything?

Simeon: Not at all! I had Grace and Darrel in class all afternoon and they didn't let anything slip!

Felix: Maybe it's because none of us were made privy to the fact there was going to be a party until an hour before it happened!

Grace: Ooo! You should've seen what we accidentally summoned before calling down Felix...It's all good, though! Lucky for us, Darrel took exorcism as an extra curricular!

Darrel: Good night, everyone! Thanks for the party! Happy birthday, old man!

Simeon: Yeah, yeah! Get off my lawn already, you meddling kids!

Morgyn: See you all tomorrow!

Caleb: That was fun! I hadn't danced like that since the 1920s.

Felix: Happy birthday, my friend! Summon me more often--it was good to catch up!

L: Are you mad?...

Simeon: About which part? Over the surprise party?...Or the fact that it isn't even my birthday?

L: Details! You work too hard. Sometimes you have to slow down and enjoy life a little!

Simeon, gently: I'm not mad. I had a really good time. You are right: I should slow down a bit or I'll miss the forest for the trees. Thanks for this, L.

L: You are most welcome! And don't worry: I'll help you clean up.

Simeon, chuckling : Ha! It's the least you can do, Ms. Sage of Mischief!

It’s the night of the juice kegger. The UBrite Bunch are gathered inside to talk before the party starts.

Orchid: Alright gang, game plan time. We’re going to host the best juice kegger Britechester has ever seen, okay? What are we gonna do?

Felix, Arianna, & Rae: Mingle!

Orchid: That’s right! I invited over as many sims as we know plus the entirety of Eta Theta Epsilon, the sorority, so we have a lot of ground to cover. Don’t forget to drink and party though, this is supposed to be fun! Whatever will amuse you most, do it!

Rae: *Jokingly* Aye aye captain.

Orchid: Hey, don’t sass me, Park. We have a lot of sims to woo and a limited amount of time. The juice is filled, the music is blaring, let’s get to it!

As the guests begin to arrive, Orchid hears a screech.

Voice: Oh my MOD! Are you Orchid Posey?

Orchid turns around to see a beautiful young woman.

Voice: Hi! I’m Serenity, we went to grade school together in Newcrest!

Orchid suddenly recognizes the woman.

Orchid: Oh my mod! Hi!

The two hug and exchange greetings.

Orchid: Okay, let me change really quick and then we can catch up! Meet me by the juice keg!

Serenity: Will do!

Orchid quickly changes into her partywear and goes outside to meet Serenity. However, the old schoolmate isn’t alone. Orchid promptly grabs a drink from the top of the juice keg and greets the stranger and Serenity.

Orchid: Hello again Serenity! And…I don’t believe we’ve met?

Stranger: No I don’t think we have, I’m Kaitlyn Rubio, she/they pronouns, I’m on Rae’s e-sports team.

Orchid: Oh! Nice to meet you! I’m Orchid Posey, I use she/her pronouns, I’m one of your hosts for tonight.

Serenity: And I’m Serenity Khan, also she/her pronouns.

Kaitlyn: Nice. So, do you two know each other?

Orchid: Yeah, actually. We went to grade school together before I moved away to Sulani for high school. My dad got a job opportunity as a Conservationalist and he couldn’t pass it up. We actually came out here to catch up.

Kaitlyn: Oh, so is it a best friends separated by distance thing or a star-crossed lovers separated by distance thing?

Serenity: Hehe, I don’t know…Orchid?

Orchid: *blushes furiously* Umm I’ll have to think about it…

Kaitlyn: I think that’s my cue to head inside.

Kaitlyn leaves the two blushing girls outside.

Serenity: *ahem* So…what happened to you after you left Newcrest? We were too young to keep in good contact after your move, I only know that you were struggling with making friends and then our communication kinda fell off.

Orchid: Yeah, I’m sorry about that.

Serenity: No need to be sorry, it was only natural that the distance end our communication. So what happened?

Orchid: Well, high school was rough in the beginning. I didn’t make any friends at first as you heard, but eventually I met Rae and Arianna. I don’t remember who I met first but we all instantly became attached at the hip. They both seemed to understand me which I hadn’t felt since I had met you. It was really nice to have friends that were empathetic toward my struggles with autism and the other usual teenage struggles.

Serenity: That does sound really nice! I’m glad you had them in your life. For me, I made other friends but none of them were very close to me. That is until university, I joined a sorority and now I have four very dear friends!

Orchid: Wait, sorority? Are you a member of Eta Theta Epsilon?

Serenity: Yeah!

Orchid: So that’s how we were reunited! I invited the sorority because I heard they made parties interesting, I didn’t know you had joined!

Serenity: Well we do make parties interesting, but I didn’t know reunions were a part of that. Do you want to try a more classic way of making a party enjoyable?

Orchid: Sure! What is it?

Serenity suddenly wraps her arms around Orchids waist, hoisting her up into the air. Orchid starts giggling like crazy.

Orchid: What are you doing?! Put me down!

Serenity: HAHAHA, give me a second, let me flip you sideways, rest your hands on the keg!

Orchid places her hands on the sides of the juice keg, with Serenity moving her hands to Orchid’s legs.

Serenity: Okay, now grab the nozzle and let ‘er rip!

The two successfully perform a keg-stand. Serenity gently lets Orchid down.

Orchid: Hehehe, that was so fun! I think I need to sit down now though, I’m feeling juiced.

Serenity: Okay! Let’s head inside!

7 Sins Legacy - generation 5 (gluttony)

Gulshan and his staff were prepping everything for the restaurant before opening that day, until Gulshan heard someone repeatedly knocking on the front door. He decided to check who so desperately wanted to speak to him before opening hours.

Gulshan: Hello, oh- come in, don't mind the pig- Felix: I do mind the pig Mister Prasad, because that's exactly why I'm here. Felix Psyded is the name- I'm here on behalf of the restaurant inspection. We have gotten a complaint about a free-roaming pig in your restaurant.

Gulshan: You- What? From who? I have never gotten a complaint about Lord Hamlet. Everybody loves him! Felix: Not the person who made the complaint, sir. Gulshan: This is ridiculous! What could a mini pig possibly do for someone to file a complaint?

Felix: We don't allow live animals to be kept, housed, permitted to enter into, or remain in any food service establishments. With a few exceptions for service animals of course- Plus, a pig is not hygienic, especially in a restaurant.

Gulshan: Clearly you know nothing about pigs. Pigs are actually very clean animals- And if that isn't enough, I give him a bath every two weeks!

Felix: You're ordered to get rid of the pig, sir. Otherwise I'll have to call someone to confiscate him. Gulshan: You can't just take him away like that! He is my-

Temperance: MY pig. I heard you want the pig to be removed from the restaurant, is that right? Felix: Yes indeed, Miss...

Temperance: Temperance. Well, Lord Hamlet is my pig because... Gulshan let me adopt him yesterday! I thought Lord Hamlet would like spending the day here after his first night at my home- But don't worry, I won't bring him to work again!

Felix: I see... Is this true, Mister Prasad? Gulshan: Yes... uh- Yes!

Gulshan: And of course you can't just take away this lovely woman's dear pet pig. I don't think you have any right to do that, especially after she said to not bring him to the restaurant again-

-I think there is no reason anymore for you to be here. Now, if you don't mind, we still have a lot of work to do before the the restaurant opens, and currently you're just wasting our time...

Felix: Don't think that you'll get away with it that easily- The pig better be gone the next time I come by. You have a nice day... Mister Prasad.

I was so excited because I thought EA purposefully made it so that ghosts showed up in their solid form in CAS with the Supernatural patch, but apparently they did it on accident and now they’re ghosts in CAS again which makes it such a pain in the butt to take pictures. I sure appreciated it when we had it though. This is Felix, the ghost of Britechester.

Felix is sitting at the counter of #2 Honeydew Fields, soaking in all the activity from the party. A stranger approaches and takes the seat beside Felix.

Stranger: How are you feeling, man? You’re looking a little overwhelmed…

Felix: Oh! Uh…quite alright…just not used to such, uh, spirited people. Pardon me, who might you be?

Stranger: Arnav Parikh, at your service.

Aranv makes a strange hand gesture.

Felix: Uh…*attempts to gesture back*...to you too?

Arnav: Ah, I see.

Felix: Did I, did I do something wrong?

Arnav: Not at all. Excuse me, there’s someone I need to find.

Felix: *is confused by modern-day people*

[theremightbecupcakespodcast]

I created a Sims 4 ghost that may or may not be a murder or accident victim. I paired her as a household with a modified Felix Psyded; I added an old-fashioned cane and a thick, silver wedding band (for more mystery) to Felix. Their household is available to download in the EA Gallery under my name, CarlaCupcakes. Let me know if you play with them!

“Are they brother and sister? Lovers? Spouses? How did Eve get that injury on her right hand and why is her right eye damaged? Is that related to how she died? Why is she so difficult and Felix so gregarious? Paranormal investigators have named her ‘Eve’ as a Biblical joke because her origin is unknown.”
