After placing Geordi’s egg finds on the shelf, I send him off to the gym in Willow Creek. Those who play the game, know it’s called Movers & Shakers. But since I advertised the name of the Nightclub, I thought it was only appropriate now to say the name of the gym, since I hadn’t before.
As Geordi is running on the treadmill, Marcus Flex and Kiyoshi Ito autonomously go over to talk to him. Therefore, I decide to add some interactions so he can get to know the two more. Learning that Marcus works at the gym, Geordi receives a sentiment about it. Since Marcus works at the gym, it is only fitting to have Geordi ask Marcus to be his Mentor.
Geordi receives a phone call from Knox. Knox wants his dating advice it seems.
Marcus and Kiyoshi were the only two Geordi meets up with at the gym. He does gain a Fitness skill level while conversing with the two men. He now only has one more task to complete the next milestone of the Bodybuilder Aspiration.
Back at home, Geordi plays more chess to work on his Logic skill. He doesn’t need to gain a level in it for his career now, but I feel he will need it somewhere down the road. It will be good to keep him working on it.
Before bed, Geordi sends Xochitl a text. I’m thinking he is wishing her a good night.
The next morning after breakfast, Geordi has a workout at home. A very long workout. I want to finish the next portion of his milestone.
While he is working out, Geordi receives a phone call from Knox. It looks like he hit it off pretty well with his new lady friend. Good for Knox.
Soon, Geordi is able to Push the Limits on the treadmill. He’s got to work soon, so a shower will be needed, but I am proud of Geordi for completing the next milestone for the Bodybuilder Aspiration. Now he has new goals.
While taking a shower, Xochitl calls Geordi. Why one would take their cell phone into the shower is beyond me, but these are Sims. They like to do extraordinary and weird things. Who can blame them. Geordi is of course going to encourage her.
After his shower, it is time for Geordi to go off to work. I like his new business-like attire rather than the polo and hat he wore.
During Geordi’s work shift, Knox comes over to his house, breaks in, and goes through his trash. Because Geordi is at work, he really wouldn’t know this is happening. With that being said, I am going to play it off that way as well.
I want to learn a little more about Xochitl, so I do a bit of cheating to find out using the MC Command Center mod once Geordi comes home from work. For one, I didn’t want to hunt and peck each World to see where she was living. MC Command Center is good for that. All I need to do is click on her from the Relationship panel and choose the MC Command Center mod. But now, I learn something new. She has a child. I don’t want to use that as a discouragement for Geordi to be involved with her as she is still single. I don’t want to cheat and open the game and playing her to see what her child looks like. I will have to have Geordi visit her, but the Residence doesn’t quite help. I end up doing an internet search and find out she came with the Growing Together pack. I will still have Geordi visit her home, though.
I think Geordi prides himself on being such an excellent cook!
The next day is pretty much the same routine. Geordi gets up, has breakfast, plays a little chess, and then works out. During his treadmill run, Geordi gets a pop up message for a new Personality Trait. This cracks me up, so I have to go with it. He’s been working hard lately, now he’s starting to get a little clumsy. I like it.
Since Geordi’s Social Need is in the yellow, I have him call up Xochitl. She will be heading to work in a couple hours, so now is a good time to have a chat with her and get their relationship level up a tad more. I was going to have him invite her over for lunch, but time in the game goes fast. She would probably eat and then need to head out to work. A nice conversation is better.
While practicing chess to gain his Logic skill, Geordi gets a call from Xochitl. The two had chatted over the phone just hours ago. He had called her. Now she is calling him. It looks like she got that promotion. She must have been told when she got into work. Congratulations, Xochitl!
This is unexpected and catches me off guard. I was watching Geordi’s Performance Status. He was in Excellent range and was at the end to make the checkmark light up. I didn’t think he’d make the promotion as there were mere seconds left for his shift when it creeped to the end. Then, Geordi arrives home with the promotion to Low-Orbit Specialist. I’m not going to complain of course. Good job, Geordi.
Part of his promotion, Geordi receives a Portable Galaxy Lightshow. I add it to his bedroom in the corner opposite his bed. This is pretty cool if you ask me.
Because he moves from evening shift to morning shift, I need to get Geordi to bed right away. Normally, I would have him get his Daily Task out of the way, but since he has little time after his promotion, it’s not going to happen for his first day with his new promotion.
I’m going to end this chapter here. In the next one, I’ll have Geordi go on a date with Xochitl. Perhaps even visit her at her home and take a look at her child. I didn’t peek to see already, so it will be fun to see what they look like and have Geordi get to know them.
