#I also ruthlessly fucked up the debug room

[yellowocaballero]

Wave-verse Jason playing sims was so funny. The King Lear reenactment and Bella Donna left at the alter we’re such funny details.

How does Tim play sims? I feel like he’d also find a way to suitably unhinged, maybe.

I'm really happy I get to say this on main :)

The little story with the Sims was directly ripped from my own childhood, down to the binder of DVDs. I LOVED the Sims as a kid. Loved it. And it was one of the biggest ways I would bond with my siblings. We would all crowd around the Gateway in the dining room and send forever making Sims and houses and fight over who does what. We'd do adorable kid stuff like -

*checks notes* Recreate the Bush family and psychologically torture George HW, George W, Laura Bush, etc in every conceivable way we could think of. We were a political family.

When Jason asks Tim what their relationship is, and when Tim starts teaching Jason the motherlode cheat like my own older sibling taught me - yeah, that can't possibly be clear to anybody but me, but it was my way of saying that they were siblings for sure :)

Anyway Tim pulled out every conceivable cheat code and used the debug room to fuck up the Sims as much as physically possible. He didn't do storylines, he just pushed the envelope to see how many cheat codes he could overload the game with until he broke it. He would make a house of 8 debugged NPCs, make them all marry, make them all have children, and then Pool Ladder all of the men in the house, leaving every baby an orphan. He had a family of aliens who all wore hot dog costumes all day. The only family he fixated upon were the three guys in Sims 2 who get pregnant with alien babies, and he sets them up to lead a "my three dads" style alien baby sitcom. They have affairs with French Maids, and then each other.

Obviously.

I do think he grew bored after that. Tim's ND in the specific way that means he sank hundreds of hours into Civ and SimCity. Tim's a Settlers of Catan guy. Steph liked Zoo Tycoon the best. Sims continues to be Jason's favorite. Damian only plays virtual poker.
