Another landmark building in Nola is getting new residents, a beautiful estate on the outskirts of town commonly referred to by folks in the know as the "House of the Rising Sim".
The home was built originally built in the 1800's The home was expanded on the west side in the 1920's and redecorated again in the 1960's. Originally a home for a stately southern family it was turned into a brothel , it passed from hand to hand and became a gain a family home, till it was recently aqquired by a Miss Josie Arlington and a Miss Lulu White, with the intention to return it to it's former glory as the hedonistic Manor of pleasure of the Nola cultural scene, thank goodness for Nola's lax laws! Let us meet the Lady's.
From left to right > Melinda Raisaint (housekeeper) Gypsey Shafer (working girl) Josie Arlington (Madame) May Tuckerman (working Girl) Countess Willie (working girl on drums) Kate Townsend( working girl) , and on bass Miss Lulu White (Madame)
The lady's settled in and explored the house, May heading strait for a relaxing dip in the tub.
Miss Josie and Countess Willie have the same idea, with a bit of a change in venues.
sweet Melinda, the housekeeper, set's about her duty's with a trip to the grocery, she will need lots to keep these girls happy.
Miss Lulu heads out to meet some of the townies , and also check the consignment store for some art to hang about the House.
(notice an appearance from our dear friends Wendy and Blondie!)
May refreshed from her soak in the tub head's out to meet and greet and work on drumming up so business on her own. She thinks the art museum is a fine place to start.
Her first encounter is with a Chrissy Legaux, who seems interested in May right off the bat.
he didnt take it in a good way, she is left wondering if he had a good enough job to afford the time with her anyway.
Meanwhile at home poor Melinda is still hard at work repairing a sink that the girls discovered soon after moving in, was in poor condition.
the girls just want to have fun of course and stand about discussing their plans in their undies, oh so casual
Gypsey decides she'd rather head out than just talk and heads to the local Nectary, immediately eyeing a gentleman and chatting him up , introducing herself , she soon discovers that like many of the residents Larry is in a serious relationship with Phoenix and insulted at Gypseys insinuations of romance.
a bit discouraged Gypsey decides to make the use of her being there and choose some Nectar to stock the bar back at the House.
She spys a handsome fellow across the way, and decides to try again to get the word out about the House of the rising Sim. Nonchalantly coming up beside him and whispering in his ear.
at least he listens politely and doesn't wretch back in offense!
Having at least gotten good word in she gathers up her choices and goes to purchase the nectar.
She hits it off with the clerk and ends up chatting for awhile, hopefully successfully intriguing one sim to stop by the House.
at least till he found out about the money!
Gypsey trudges back home fully worn out too tired to make it inside ....zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
