Northern Line - Episode Two

[sushigal007.livejournal.com]

The Asylum Challenge.

So, last time we left the inmates, my playable, Angel, had gone to bed with flu, leaving the other seven to stomp on roaches and go into aspiration failure every 30 seconds. This update contains SIM NUDITY as I hate the censor blur and got rid of it.




"Hey, Wilson, old buddy, old pal, did I ever tell you about the time I won first prize in a kareoke contest and Simon Cowell was in the audience and totally wanted to sign me up for a record deal, but after what happened with Susan Boyle, he insisted I come here first!"
Liiiiiiiar.


Aw, poor Colindale needs monies. But no-one will give him any.


And Hampstead has locked himself into the bathroom to cry.


And Colindale's back out, harrassing the neighbours.
"Please, give us money! We can't afford to hire an exterminator!"


Everyone is hungry. You guys know where the fridge is.


You know where the toilet is too. No peeing on the floor. That's gross.


Finally Angel wakes up and sorts those roaches for good with a can of Death.


YES I KNOW EVERYONE HAS THE FLU. SHUT UP ALREADY. Geez, it's bad enough that everyone in the house is on Tamiflu, don't need it in mah asylum too!


Hungry! Need to pee!


As does Goodge.


...Ew. That's not going to help her OCD much.


Colindale is not happy about having to wait for the shower.


The toilet is really rather skanky now, so Angel cleans it while I wonder what became of my neat freaks.


Well, there's one.


Angel has gained a cleaning point, but she is NOT happy about it.


And the bath is starting to look a bit scummy too. This doesn't bother Colindale though.


Euston dreams of Morden.


And Goodge continues panhandling.


While Borough just cries.


If Wilson were a real guy, he'd be very happy right now. Sadly, he's just a manifestation of Morden's insanity.


"I'm not crazy, you believe me, don't you, Wilson?"


Desperate for company, Morden takes to hanging out in Hampstead's room in her undies. Lucky guy. Except he's too busy dreaming about how much he hates himself to notice.


The thought of Goodge seems to make Edgeware ill.


Or maybe it's the fact that the hallway is STILL infested with roaches. Morden doesn't care though, she's got her old pal, Wilson to keep her spirits up.


Oh wait, she's upset about the roaches too.


Goodge is too busy coughing her guts up to care about roaches.


I attempt to drag up Angel's motives so she can look for a damn job in the right career path. It's been three days and she's no closer to achieving her LTW.






Hampstead pees on the floor, Colindale steps outside to whine about the roaches and Morden chats to Wilson some more. Things are not going well.


I think this was the point when Morden got stuck in a loop. She was starving, and had no energy. So she'd go to bed, and hunger would wake her a few seconds later. She'd get up, be overcome with exaustion and hop into another bed. Only to wake up hungry again a few moments later.


Oh hey, it's Euston! He's pissed off, but so far he seems the most stable of all the inmates. I haven't seen him go into aspiration failure yet.


Ah, how sweet, Goodge and Borough are playing Red Hands.


Then Borough goes panhandling in her underwear. I guess it increases her chances of getting some cash?


Or not.


AND AGAIN, FIRE! Just as Morden makes it to the kitchen to eat!


Oh bugger. Angel's at work.


Morden! No! Not a good place to pass out!


The menfolk panic. There's about three hours until Angel arrives. I sit back, and wait for the Reaper. I predict that Morden will die first.


The flames wake her up. I wonder if she'll move out of the way of danger?


...No. She doesn't.


Meanwhile, Hampstead is sleeping, blissfully unaware of the raging inferno below and the giant bunny watching him sleep. Creepy.


Morden decides to catch up on some kip too.


And Euston jumps into the flames.
Anyway, this was the point when I got fed up with my screencap program. I was pressing Tab to hide the User Control Panel and the camera was going mad. So I started using the in-game camera. Which I hate. It does stupid things to the filenames, makes them horribly compressed Jpegs, and shrinks the pics. Which is why the next lot are so small and crappy.


Euston discovers just a moment too late that it's not a good idea to jump into fire. But maybe he's just too depressed to care.


A lot of my inmates are idiots.


Death finally arrives to claim someone. Much to my surprise, it's NOT Morden. Goodbye, Euston. I'll miss you. Angel probably won't though.


Thankfully, Angel FINALLY arrives home and calls the fire brigade out.


Lol.


They manage to put out Colindale and Borough.


Do they dazzle you?


And then they start putting out the rest of the kitchen.


Morden takes advantage of the situation and wees on the floor. Silly girl, if you'd done that sooner, you might've put the fire out!


And as soon as the fire is out, she falls asleep again. Incredibly, Euston was the only inmate to die.


And Hampstead slept through the whole thing.


Drama over, Angel zaps some cockroaches. Why couldn't the fire kill THEM?!


Colindale is grossed out by how bad Morden smells.


And Goodge takes up her spot on the pavement again.


While Angel heads out for a sneaky sob. I'm not sure if she's crying over Euston, or the crappiness of her life, but either way, it's tragic.


Damn passed-out inmates, always in the way.


Angel is also surrefering from this problem as she attempts to clean up what's left of the kitchen.


I moved Euston's urn to a nice spot outside, where Hampstead and Colindale immediately rushed out to mourn him.


Then they bitched about how hungry they were.


Meanwhile, Borough dreams of food.


And lol, Edgeware passed out right next to his bed!


Previously too busy panhandling to care, Goodge suddenly realises she stinks.


And Morden wakes up!


And instantly goes into aspiration failure.






The invisible psychiatrist shows up to deal with her...


Closely followed by another creepy NPC. Nooo! Morden! You were right next to the fridge too! Couldn't you hold it together long enough for a sandwich?!


Hampstead stops mourning long enough to inform Colindale that he stinks.


Then he goes back to mourning again. Although looking at the way his thought bubbles have overlapped, perhaps he's just upset that Morden turned into an urn before he could eat her remains or something.


Oh hey, Borough's gone into aspiration failure too.


Cluck, cluck, cluck!


Ah, all better!


Colindale has pinched Goodge's place out on the street...


Edgeware still hasn't made it into bed...


OH SHIT! And Borough's just died!


There's another urn to move out back. Bye Borough, I'll miss you.


This is really kind of pathetic. Poor Colindale.


Goodge figures if Edgeware isn't using the bed, she will. Assuming the stench doesn't kill her as she sleeps.


Hampstead and Edgeware mourn their fellow inmates.


Angel cleans some more of the kitchen, which is still in disarray after the fire.


Goodge gives up on sleep and raids the fridge instead.


Before suffering a coughing attack. Yeah, they still got flu.


Oh dear. More aspiration failure for Colindale.




Beat your chest, monkey boy.




Aaaaand just as he's cured, he falls down dead.


And this seems a good a place to end my update. In the space of about two days, my houshold has dropped from eight to four. That's a 50% death rate! Guess I won't be opening my own care home. XD

WHYYYY did Euston have to be first? HE WAS THE SANE ONE ;___;

WHYYYY is Hampstead a cannibal?

Ummm ... better luck from this point on? lol at least there's only 4 now to take care of, even if you can still only control one.

[sushigal007.livejournal.com]

I never even got to see what his aspiration failure was like, sob sob! Still, it does seem a bit easier now, hopefully no more will die.

[frozenacid.livejournal.com]

Most depressing update ever. :O

[sushigal007.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry! I'm trying to keep the rest of them alive. XD

[pepperpaperclip.livejournal.com]

Hey! I don't get the title. Does it mean the Northern Line is like for poor people or something? :/ Cos I'm from Manchester. >:|









LOLZ joke, joke. xD
Actually I really liked it! Are they ALL railway stations (or... something trainy. Not really sure)? I only recognise Hampstead and Euston. I think Goodge really has a look of Lily Allen! Esp. when she had pink hair! *points to the pic where she's begging for money* *is ashamed she can't do links* Oh... wait. I didn't mean that Lily Allen begs for money. Oh nvm. Loved it!!!

[sushigal007.livejournal.com]

Yep, they're all train stations on the Northern Line of the London Underground. Goodge looks like Lily Allen? *peers* Oooh, well, it's not on purpose! XD
