Strangetown, Season 3 - Sim State University, Part 2

“So… are you gonna apologize for cheating on me any time soon?”

“It wasn’t cheating. We weren’t committed, yet.”

“I was!”

“Hey, Martin! Sorority bimbo on the phone for you!”

It wasn’t just about revenge, okay? Yes, making out with Castor was a great way to hurt Heather and Martin, but it was also kind of exciting! The most popular boy on campus, and he was into her! Plain old Jane. It was exhilarating.

Hurting Martin’s feelings as much as he’d hurt hers did feel pretty good, though.

Heather didn’t seem too bothered by any of it, though. Darn!

“What happened to you?”

“Got stuck by lightning.”

“Nice.”

“He’ll be fine. Us knowledge sims love getting fucked up by bolts of lightning.”

“That might be just you, Allegra!”

“Sure. So, you’ve finally turned to the dark side. Want to get revenge on those sorority bitches with me?”

“No thanks. I’ve had my fill of revenge! Besides, I need them to make up the numbers at my graduation party.”

“Aw, man! This house isn’t going to be the same without you.”

“So, about Jane…”

“I’d rather stay out of the gritty house politics, okay? But it’d be cool if you two made amends before she leaves.”

“Eeeek! Fire!!!!”

“I’ll save you, Jane!”

“Thanks, but I’m still not forgiving you for the Heather thing!”

Graduation party!

“Hey, graduate!”

“Castor! We’ll stay in touch, right?”

“Of course we will, Bean. Don’t go forgetting about me in the big wide world.”

Castor rejects Tiffany’s flirt attempts, which is oddly out of character for him! Looks like he’s a bit distracted…

“Are you okay, Castor?”

“Yeah, I guess I’m just not on my best form tonight.”

“Gasp! How will my party succeed without your wry observational humor?”

“Shut up.”

“Seriously though, what’s the matter?”

“I’m going to miss you.” He wasn’t going to tell her he was in love, yet. He was still getting to grips with it himself.

“Gooooooooo, llamas!”

“Nice! It’s a shame we never hung out more.”

“Well! It’s never too late, y’know?”

“Listen, Jane, I don’t want you to leave college still mad at me. So here goes: I’m sorry. The way things ended with us, it was fucked up. I was scared of hurting you, but my cowardice just ended up hurting you even more. Please don’t hate me.”

“I don’t hate you, Marty. We were both settling really, weren’t we? I know I’m not the person you want. And I don’t know if you’re really what I wanted, either. Maybe I tried to talk myself into it because I didn’t think I could do better.”

“Hey!”

“I don’t mean it like that! I’m just saying, neither of us were very confident in ourselves. It was just easier to get together with each other than go out and explore our options. Less scary.”

“I’m gonna miss you, Jane!”

“I’ve been hearing that a lot today, hehe. I’ll come visit, don’t worry.”

“Screw visiting this dump, you’re moving to the city! You gotta show me all the lights and action.”

“Selfie?”

“You bet.”

“No, wait, I fucked that up. Let’s take another.”

“Too late, Jane! The taxi’s outside.”

Aaaaaaand, Jane was gone. Allegra was already wondering who the hell she was going to room with now.

Angela had decided to take Virginia’s advice and join up with the Greek house. She’d be able to get some brand new girl friends! And maybe get away from the awkward Tank situation…

While the sorority girls were visiting, Virginia and Tank engaged in a little harmless flirting. Which turned out to not be so harmless when his family-sim girlfriend caught them, and slapped Tank so hard he fell inside the mailboxes.
