01-17. The New Minion

Archie and Tyron were secretly delighted with the mysterious death of Antwon May. He'd been getting more and more obnoxious. And weird. They were not surprised when he just took off one night on his jet ski. He must have been searching for treasure on those deserted islands.

Following the new guidelines of the Farazian Society, Tyron lost no time in recruiting a new sim to their cause, a young woman named Sherry Malone. She had real potential as a minion. Tryon thought Faraz would be pleased.

Sherry had a Wonder Woman thing going for her ... in a colorful sort of way. Her traits were Disciplined, Handy, Neat, Social Butterfly, and Dog Person. She was a part time military ROTC candidate. Sherry was also practical with finances, a Capricorn.

She wasn't bad to look at either. What a great roommate! A vast improvement over foul-tempered Antwon May.

Tyron chatted her up before Archie had a chance to get to know her.

He was surprised to find out that Sherry was a witch. Another plus! (The game made Sherry a witch after I added her to the minion household and I left it that way.)

Sherry had been one of the homeless townies without any traits, skills, or job. I worked with her and brought her to life. Sherry enjoys telling everyone she's a witch. She likes that part!

So Sherry settled in with Tyron, Archie and Pudge Little Dog.

Pudge was happy to have a Dog Person to help take care of him.

But he lost no time in trying to get Sherry's attention. He began to act out. He begged for table scraps.

He did his duty outside, of course, but then played in his own piddle.

He tore up furniture instead of chewing on his toy bone.

Finally Pudge got the attention he craved. Sherry took him to the park.

Once there, Pudge responded to Sherry's Disciplined trait. He chewed on the plastic bone for all he was worth!

But then he found that nice, stinky horse pee and his Piggy trait kicked in. Oh well, Sherry still loved him. Maybe she'd give him a bath.

Tyron and Archie got new outfits for the Farazian Society, something that said Free Thinking Bohemians. Something more in line with their motto: We Have What You Want!

I tweaked their faces a touch so they wouldn't look so much alike. Tyron got a little dreamy-eyed to show his Over-Emotional trait.

Archie sparked up a bit to mark his Dramatic trait.

But things heated up between the two Farazian males. Archie was not happy with Tyron for monopolizing Sherry's time. He told Tyron to back off! (Notice the shredded newspaper. Pudge had been at it again.)

Archie: And stop telling her I'm a flake! Just because I appreciate radical art doesn't mean I'm a loser! You're the one always wasting time on the computer!
Tyron: Ha! Show's what you know! Sherry likes video games. I'm going to teach her new tricks.

Tyron: Hey, Sher! Have you beaten level 10 yet?
Sherry: Yes! Thanks for the tip on that Ghoul Boss, Ty!

Well, Archie wasn't going down without a fight. He'd find a way to get closer to Sherry. A fun outing of some kind. She loved to be out and about. Archie could handle that.

He got his chance after a get-together at the Farazes. Still dressed in party garb, Archie invited Sherry to go with him alone to the park. They danced!

Archie had found new motivation for the Farazian Society. No one would accuse him of slacking off again. Sherry would teach him discipline!
