Round 1.5 - Roboot

Up next in La-Stique-en-Ardenne, it's our latest Resident: it's the one and only Inspectron 2000 unit who has been sent to keep the town inspected on all oddities that may happen. It's the one and only Irma Roboothoping she won't turn rogue, hijack the plaee and demand world domination!

Irma: "No house does NOT compute! Proper living conditions for me must be provided at once or else the town will not qualify and must therefore be destroyed."

Sheesh, I'd rather not see the town be turned into a Big Fiery Ball Visible From Space, thank you.

Irma: "This house does provide the basics and does therefore compute. You will not be fined."

Up next Irma decided to build an army of Toy Roboots."

Irma: "This mini Roboot does compute and is therefore not obsolete."

Next thing: the welcome wagon happens.

Artie: "Thor Reknarogue, more like ze Boooor Raknarogue!"

Irma: "That joke has triggered Irma's FUN sensors. I am therefore required to laugh. Ha ha ha ha ha."

Ethan: "Hmm, what a peculiar individual."

Artie: "Ahem, 'as toi eveur kissd someone on ze leeps?"

Irma: "I am required that romance is a disgusting habit and does not compute, and therefore must be destroyed."

Artie: "Hein?!"

Irma: "I must inform you of the fact that standing on the road while cars are driving by does NOT compute, Mr Schiffer."

As the day went by, the group did some more socialisation...

... and eventually went to play kicky bag.

Irma: "This game is triggering my FUN sensors and does therefore compute!"

Not much later Linda Blake dropped by and started slow dancing with Ethan.

Irma: "SLOW DANCING DOES NOT COMPUTE! *BEEP BEEP BOOP BOOP*

Irma: "The low body hygiene of Ms Stique does not compute, therefore she must leave to wash herself or be fined a sum of *KRRZT* €1.000,- in her local currency."

It didn't take long for the rest to leave. Irma went to bed and the next morning she decided that building her mechanical skill would make more things compute.

Then ze first calleur eez in ze maison.

Irma: "Artie has build enough relationship points with me to trigger my *BUZZZ* 'friendship' state. Artie does therefore compute now."

Irma: "Bills do NOT compute, but must be paid."

I also realised that I never showed Irma's personality and LTW, so here you go. She's a standard Maxis Scorpio with the Knowledge Aspiration and the Lifetime Want to become a Cult Leader...

The only reason I'm not getting worried is the fact that Irma doesn't have a university degree and said career is locked for her...

Artie keeps calling Irma though.

It's up for debate whether all the calling does compute for Irma.

OOOF, that jawline doesn't seem to compute. :o

Irma: "The Bronze Roboottery Badge does now compute. I can expand my Roboot army with new minions."

Irma: "The discomfort of working so long on the roboot bench does not compute. I am therefore in need to *KRRZT* sit down and study mechanical books instead."

And after that Irma needed to sleep to reset her circuits.

Irma: "Unmade beds do not compute and are in breach of act #387 of Sims Reality Show laws. I am therefore required to make all the beds I find in this town."

Irma: "The hydroboot does now compute and is therefore required to clean up watery messes."

Soon it was time for Irma to take a break from the roboottery read some mechanical books more again.

And soon, Artie calls yet again.

Irma: "I must read more mechanical books in order to make more things compute."

Irma: "Gelatin does compute and must therefore be !CONSUMED."

During the evening it was time for Irma to try some more Roboottery."

And before going to bed Irma has to !CONSUME more gelatin.

The next morning it's time to do some more bathroom business...

... after which Irma finished one more roboot.

Irma: "I am feeling rather lonely. I am therefore required to visit a community lot and try to talk with other people."

Irma: "The skating rink stadium is the only unowned building in the area and does therefore COMPUTE."

Irma: "I am required to inform Artie that romance is still a disgusting habit and does therefore still not compute."

Artie: "Hmm, zut."

Also, we now have a barista NPC. We need someone to replace her with! I know that Stevan Hollywood is currently working as a barista, though he and Irma share the same creator so I'm not sure if that's going to work?

Irma: "I have sensed a social gathering upstairs. I must inspect it to decide whether it is in accordance with the local Reality Game Show laws."

Irma: "I am Irma Roboot, the Inspectron 2000. I am required to ask this town's population whether their houses do compute?"

Lucas: "My house is fine, thanks for asking."

Fabio: "Hello stranger, my name is Fabio Farfeild an-"

Irma: "FABIO FARFEILD DOES NOT COMPUTE AND MUST THEREFORE BE DESTROYED AT ONCE!!! WATER GLASS INITIATED!!!!!"

Fabio: "¿A LA MIERDA?"

Irma: "I must inspect the local espresso to see whether it doesn't break any Reality Game Show laws. I am therefore required to order one."

Barista: "... Sure?"

Irma: "I am required to inform Fabio Farfeild that standing still on the ice does not compute and that he therefore must be destroyed as soon as possible."

Fabio: "Okay, you're creepy."

Better go back home before the Grim Reaper has to visit someone.

Back to more roboottery!

Irma: "Shower dirt does NOT compute and must therefore be DESTROYED."

Fabio: "Bwahahaha, that'll teach her trying to destroy her."

I wonder if Fabio realises that he's stealing an OLD newpaper?

Irma: "Expanding the roboot army does compute and must therefore be initiated by me."

And soon Artie called. Again.

Irma: "The Silver Roboottery Badge does compute. One more and I can build Servos!"

Uh oh. If she gets to Servos the town might be screwed. :o

Luckily her low energy does not compute with building more.

Time to sleep.

The next morning Irma is trying to build a SentryBoot.

Irma: "Being a vigilante does compute and must therefore be endorsed."

Irma: "Broken SentryBoots do NOT compute."

Irma: "I must find a way to earn money in order afford more roboots to build. Opening a Roboottery business does compute and must therefore be done."

And so...

Irma: "A lack of a store does NOT compute and the lot must be destroyed unless a shop is built."

Irma: "My needs do NOT compute. Therefore I must go home in order to raise them until they're high enough to run the Roboottery."

And so, Irma went on to !CONSUME more gelatin.

And afterwards she worked on her mechanical skill.

Irma: "Clogged toilets do NOT compute! I repeat: Clogged toilets do NOT compute!"

Irma: "I must make another friend to increase my influence and reputation in this town, which can *BUZZZZ* come handy when working in the Roboottery. I am therefore required to call some neighbours to *KRRZT* befriend them."

Irma: "I am required to build more Roboot minions to *BEEP BEEP BOOP BOOP* sell them to the masses and therefore infiltrate the town."

But then, Artie called... AGAIN.

Then it was time for Irma to call it a day.

The next day Irma finished the roboot she didn't get to finish last time.

And soon afterwards she began expanding her Roboot army a bit more.

Irma: "Gelatin must be !CONSUMED in order to prepare for my work at the Roboottery."

And going to the Roboottery it is!

Irma: "I am hereby ordered to convince you to buy my miniature toy roboots. Refusal will be seen as a breach of law #2497 of the Reality Game Show act, with the consequential punishment being *KRRZT* complete disintegration."

Taz: "I'd rather buy one of those silly toys over being disintegrated, thank you."

Irma: "SILLY TOYS DOES NOT COMPUTE!!!"

In the meanwhile, look at the snow falling outside! One reminder that it's the final day of Irma's round.

As Irma's trying to do some cashier stuff, Fabio proves here that his middle name is impatient.

He does give Irma the very first Simoleon earned though.

Irma: "OOOMPH! Cash register does NOT compute! Any more incidents involving randomly opening drawers and they must all be destroyed!"

Diane: "I am quite impressed by the atmosphere of this shop. It reminds me of a cat I once had. I'm giving it a gold star."

Irma: "A gold star is a sign of gratefulness, therefore, Diane does compute."

Luckily Irma didn't notice Diane going outside to jump rope. Instead it was Taz who gave Irma a gold star.

Irma: "Long rows of customers must be eliminated as soon as possible, therefore I must have them pay for their roboot toys one by one."

Irma: "Refusal to pay will result in *BUZZZZ* immediate extermination of one's life."

Taz: "Sheesh, I'm not giving gold stars for that."

Irma: "LOSS OF GOLD STARS DOES NOT COMPUTE!"

Not soon after, another character decided to give the Roboottery a visit. Meredith officially entering in the role of a townie Witch apparently updated her appearance.

As Irma is restocking some roboots, Meredith is trying to cast some evil spells, including a rain storm.

Irma: "Shoo shoo! Magic does NOT compute!"

After that minor stumble, Irma returned home from the Roboottery.

Irma: "Gelatin has to be !CONSUMED in order for me to compute properly."

After Irma's gelatin binge was over, she went to take a nice, much needed shower.

And then it was time for a bit of a nap.

One more toy Roboot, just for replenishing.

Irma: "Wolves digging holes in the garden is a violation of the Reality Game Show act of Nice Gardens and any future offenders will be *KRRRZZT* obliterated beyond recognition after a fine of €99999,99 in your local currency has been paid."

After that, Irma went to bed and A FUCKING BURGLAR APPEARS.

Irma: "Stealing my Roboottery bench does NOT COMPUTE!!! *KRRZZZT* *BEEP BEEP BOOP BOOP*

Burglar: "Oh shit, she's angry!"

Irma: "I INSIST YOU DO NOT MOVE ANY FURTHER, YOU ARE IN BREACH OF LAW 878 OF THE SIMS REALITY SHOW CODE AND THEREFORE MUST BE DISINTEGRATED AT ONCE!!!"

Burglar: "Better get the hell outta here!"

Alas, the burglar escaped. Though the good news is that I only need to get 2 more burglar in order to unlock alarms.

Irma: "Living without an approved Roboottery bench does not compute..."

What's shittier is that it costs 2.000 Simoleons to buy a new one, money Irma doesn't have at the moment. Guess she'll have to go job hunting sometime soon.

As a Leader Of The Pack appears in the garden to dig another hole, the season turns into Winter, which means this round has come to an end.

I'll add 1 more household before playing with the Stique Household again. The question is, who will be the last one to join this round? Preferably at least one female Sim, to even the ratio a bit. Though I'd like to keep introducing Sims by players who haven't been represented yet. I also need some Sims to take on the NPC jobs of Barista and Burglar, any suggesions for those are welcome.

(already represented Simmers are:

M13Vulpecula, HayloHusky, Paco1200, Tigerblu11, YJB19299, Kittymeow, WinteryGarnet, Turner, x_MG_x, Smarties100, Kaliko103, Mojot89, Alleenmens, Ninjakid150, Lillibattenberg and Twiddle3.)
