#malan hall 2023

[happy-lemon]

I have an interesting little story to share about Malan Hall's resident Bonehilda. I swear that everything I'm about to type is the truth and there was no skullduggery (no pun intended, Boney) on my part.

One night, not long after Dylan and Zoya had their first kiss at the keg party, Bonehilda decided to read a book in Dylan's bunk. When he went to bed, she was there...and she would not budge.

So, Dylan found other accommodations and clearly Zoya didn't mind.

The next morning, while they were both still sleeping, Bonehilda came into Zoya's room and did this.

She stayed in Dylan's bed on purpose and you can't convince me otherwise. Especially because the next night, Dylan and Zoya decided to roast marshmallows in the backyard.

And who should appear?

When they finished, Dylan finally made his next move.

And Bonehilda walked away like, "My work here is done."

But here's where it gets weirder and even more interesting... after this happened, she glitched out. DISAPPEARED. Her coffin was still there but Bonehilda was nowhere to be found. I waited for her to come back, but she never returned.

Oscar Ortiz

Term: First

Hometown: Starlight Shores

Major: Fine Arts (Music)

Oscar is the only child of legendary film director, Victor Ortiz, and award-winning actress, Penelope León. He studied music at Le Fromage School of the Arts, and his dream is to become a film composer. He wouldn't mind using his parents' fame to open doors, but they sent him to university for a lesson in hard work and humility. Hopefully it pays off for all of them.

Movie night!

While Dylan has been wreaking havoc on the future, back home in the present, Jenna has also found love. So happy for the Malan Hall gang!

It appears Oscar has found a girlfriend! Is she good enough for our adorable music nerd? We'll find out.

I didn't see this coming, but it makes complete sense. He prefers street art to fine art, but they're both artists and they were great friends at university. Congratulations, Garrett and Jaimey!

A random Tuesday in Malan Hall

[happy-lemon]

Malan Hall's resident Bonehilda ain't playin' around.

Zoya: When we met, could you have imagined that we'd still be together?

Dylan: Honestly? Yeah.

Zoya: Really?

Dylan: The first time I saw you, it was all over for me.

Zoya: That is the sweetest thing anyone has ever said.

Dylan: So...I was wondering...do you think you'd want to move to St. Claire with me? Maybe get a little apartment? You've still got two more degrees to earn and I have a whole bunch of stuff to do, but...maybe we could do our separate things...together?

Zoya: I love you.

Dylan: Is that a yes?

Zoya: It's definitely a yes.

Sims University is proud to share that all the residents of the newly renovated Malan Hall completed their studies with honors. Although the students worked very hard to build and maintain their grade point averages, we believe their modern, well-appointed dormitory played no small role in fostering their success. Congratulations to Jenna Collazo, Garrett Hawke, Zoya Melville, Oscar Ortiz, Dylan Shimada, Deidre Tomlin, Kezia Vines, and Jaimey Wilkie. Sims University wishes you the best, no matter where life takes you.

Remember on the first day in the dorm when Garrett set the hot dogs on fire? I'm so proud that I could just cry.

Not sure why Jenna didn't get a graduation gown and I missed Dylan's diploma celebration, but here they are! What does the future hold for Malan Hall 2023? They're ALL moving to St. Claire.

Because Dylan is the legacy heir, he'll be my playable household, along with Zoya. Deidre, Kezia, and Jenna will share an apartment, while Jaimey, Garrett, and Oscar will get a place together. The fates of the dormies will be left in the hands of Story Progression, except for Oscar, because I have something (or maybe someone) special in mind for him.

But before we dive into St. Claire, we'll be going back to Isla Paradiso because it's time for Mara's storyline to come to a close.

Dylan got a little tired of being the muscle behind all the keg stands, so he decided to sing some karaoke with Oscar. No one was especially impressed.

Dylan stopped at the mini-mart to pick up some apples for his dormmates to eat between classes since they're not very good at taking care of themselves.
