Blaine Attempts to Create a Protege

After a long hard slog of sing a grams, Sophie headed back home to see solace with the chickies. She used to find comfort with Pat. But, with their relationship still teetering on the edge, she found these gold coloured fluff balls soothing .. and adorable. S0NNY patiently waited his/her (I still haven't established a gender for this Plumbot, maybe a male?) turn.


Blaine, in the meantime, rolled a Wish to create a Plumbot of his very own. He'd managed to achieve some basic knowledge on Nanites and Trait Chips. So I put him to work.


And LO! He created .... BL4IN3.


Blaine: Now, remember B2 (his nickname for BL4IN3), you are still a basic model and very fragile indeed.
B4: What's ... 'fragile'
JINXIE: Oh, please...
Blaine: JINXIE, be nice.
JINXIE: I don't have to babysit this thing do I?
Blaine: Not all the time.
JINXIE: Well, I should hope not.

 Unfortunately, by the time Blaine had ... unsuccessfully ... debriefed B4 about how to behave in the house, it was time to go to work. (oh how I have missed the Firefighter Career) This time, he had his work cut out, as a medium sized earthquake hit the town, causing mayhem and damage all over the place.


He would have managed quite well, had he not spent half the night talking to B4 and answering that Plumbot's inane questions. And so his energy levels were quite depleted as he dealt with emergency after emergency.



Thank goodness for Sophie's quick thinking. Whilst heading back home from yet another sing a gram, she spotted a house still ablaze, with Blaine shorted out in the driveway, she popped in and put out the flames. (he seems to be doing that a lot - shorting out)



Blaine realised that he wasn't getting any younger and longed to retire. In fact, it was one of his Wishes (that I'd locked a long time ago). But he still hadn't achieved his LTW. So, unfortunately, he'll have to keep plugging ahead until he has managed to rescue ... 30? 50? Sims? I can't remember. I know he's not far off that target.

Back home, B4 was proving to be quite the opposite of a protege. He wandered around the house, wondering at plenty of things....


.... and having suicidal thoughts about taking a dip in the pool!!!


NOOOO!!! B4, you can't just do that, you'll fry! Hasn't Blaine told you that already?

Also, his memory chip must be malfunctioning because I found him standing right in front of one of the regeneration stations, complaining that his battery was going flat.



Blaine? What have you done? What sort of creature have you created?
