10.2 Story Mode
================
The objective of story mode is to develop the characters romantic, sensuality,
and friendship relationship through 10 levels (circles) with allows them to
get married. The fun relationship can also be advanced but its not essential
to the plot. Try to avoid the trouble plot lines by keeping the work load
balanced. Some of the dialogs for the romanctic, sensuality, and friendship,
plotlines can be missed if certain conditions are not met, but this doesn't
prevent obtaining the marriage objective. The three relationship plotlines can
be advanced in any order although the dialog for third circle of the romantic
and sensuality relationships are mutually exclusive.
Attend to both characters needs through the first weekend and throw in some
conversation between them, I'll discuss this in more detail in the next sub-
section. After your morning routine on Monday morning when its time to go to
work you see a factory icon appear. Direct one of the characters to go to
work by using the stairwell and selecting "Go to Work" or wait for one of them
to decide to go on their own. The dialog before the first work day will vary
depending on which character you send to work first.
If the male goes to work first you will see the following dialog:
Him> Don't you love Monday mornings? I think we should find who invented them,
then kill them and everyone they know.
Her> Noted, [Male character's name] - not a morning person.
Game dialog> Okay, you want the money, you've got to do the time. Go and study
or get to work to get the dough. Then you can transform this place from a
student flophouse into a filmstar swank pad.
Game dialog> Check your savings and you can start spending straight away. Just
go back into decorating mode to do your place up.
Game dialog> There's everything from plasma screens to swimming pools up for
grabs...if you've got the benjamins.
Him> Catch you later.
If the female goes to work first you will see the following dialog:
Her> Tell me why I don't like Mondays.
Him> Hey! Only five more days to Friday night. No, you're right, Mondays are
officially bad news.
Game dialog> Okay, you want the money, you've got to do the time. Go and study
or get to work to get the dough. Then you can transform this place from a
student flophouse into a filmstar swank pad.
Game dialog> Check your savings and you can start spending straight away. Just
go back into decorating mode to do your place up.
Game dialog> There's everything from plasma screens to swimming pools up for
grabs...if you've got the benjamins.
Her> See you tonight.
The other character will like spontaneous go to work, if not send them on
their way.
==============================
10.3 Develop a Weekly Routine
==============================
It's essential to develop a routine to satisfy you're characters needs. Avoid
getting the relationship into trouble by balancing the workload and swapping
the characters task each day.
------------------------------
10.3.1 Sample Weekday Schedule
------------------------------
When you first start out the characters relationship isn't strong enough for
one of them to use the toilet, shower, or bathtub if the other character is
already in there so it will be necessary to juggle the schedule so the other
is doing something else.
In the morning when the characters first get up, have the first one use the
toilet and was their hands at the sink. Have the other one get breakfast from
the refrigerator.
When the first characters done washing their hands, have them get breakfast
from the fridge, ideally there will be a bit of conversation time at the
breakfast table.
When the second character finishes breakfast, have them use the toilet, clean
the toilet and take a shower. Mean while the first character should wash up
the dishes and clean the dining table.
There likely won't be time before work, for the other character to have a
shower, they'll have one later.
Both characters should put on their formal or casual attire and go to work.
The first character should use the toilet when they get it and have a shower.
The second character can take on the trash and cook dinner.
The first character should change into some casual attire (unless they're no
longer shy) and get some food from the stove. Ideally both characters are
eating at the same time for some conversations.
The first character should vacuum the house (buy a vacuum from the study menu
in decorate mode) while the second character uses the toilet, washes up the
dishes, and cleans the dining table (if the first character is done vaccuum
they can clean the table instead)
If you replace the shower with a tub, one of the character should clean it as
well.
Now its time to do some relationship development. Have the characters talk to
each other using the various Fun, Sensuality, Romance, and Friendship options
to build up those relationships until its time to go to bed. You can try to
keep the development of the four categories even, but its not necessary to do
so as long as you don't ignore one or more of them completely.
Both characters should use their respective beds.
Swap schedules for the next week day to avoid trouble.
------------------------------
10.3.2 Sample Weekend Schedule
------------------------------
The major difference here is the characters don't go to work.
In the morning when the characters first get up, have the first one use the
toilet and was their hands at the sink. Have the other one get breakfast from
the refrigerator.
When the first characters done washing their hands, have them get breakfast
from the fridge, ideally there will be a bit of conversation time at the
breakfast table.
When the second character finishes breakfast, have them use the toilet, clean
the toilet and take a shower. Mean while the first character should wash up
the dishes and clean the dining table.
Have the second character get dressed and take out the trash, while the first
character uses the shower.
Have the first character get dressed, and have the character talk to each
other using the various Fun, Sensuality, Romance, and Friendship options to
build up those relationships until they start getting hungry. Have the first
character use the toilet, and wash their hands, while the second character
cooks dinner. Have the first character get food from the stove.
After the meal have the first character vaccuum, while the second character
washes the dishes and uses the toilet, the first character should clean the
kitchen table.
If you replace the shower with a tub, one of the character should clean it as
well.
Have the characters talk to each other using the various Fun, Sensuality,
Romance, and Friendship options to build up those relationships until its time
to go to bed.
Swap schedules for the next weekend day to avoid trouble.

Her> Oh, yeah. Good move. Let's try a bit of {chauvinism/(rainbow mode)
sarcasm}
Him> You're right, I've been very naughty. Maybe you should spank me.
You'll see this dialog if the female fills up her eighth trouble circle.
Her> Look, I am getting REALLY fed up of doing all the cleaning on my own.
Will you try lifting a finger!?
Him> Sure, which one do you want me to lift?
Her> There's a sandwich in the fridge that's had children.
Him> That's Arnold. I'm training him to do tricks.
Her> This isn't funny. If you don't do your fair share then I am out of here.
No more warnings!
You'll see this dialog if the female fills up her last trouble circle. The
game end with the female leaving.
Her> That's it! I've had it with you!
Him> What is it this time?
Her> That's always your attitude isn't it? Well, you can screw your flat!
Him> What?!
Her> I'm out of here. You can keep the furniture, but I'm taking the money.
Have a nice life!

to turn out fatal.
Her> No need to get sarcastic. It doesn't suit you.
You'll see this dialog if the male fills up his third trouble circle.
Him> There's stuff on your side of the fridge that's gone hairy. Don't know if
you've heard, but Penicillin's already been discovered?
Her> I've been busy.
Him> Yeah, I've seen you {filing your nails/(rainbow mode) watching TV}.
Her> You'll have to work on you angry look, it's just not doing it for me;
You'll see this dialog if the male fills up his fifth trouble circle.
Him> Need some exercise?
Her> You coming on to me again?
Him> Oh, yeah. There's something of mine that really needs your attention. A
little bit of rubbing and tender care... it's called the flat! Try tidying up
you lazy slob!
Her> You stand more chance of me doing that than anything else!
You'll see this dialog if the male fills up his eighth trouble circle.
Him> We have to talk. I mean really talk.
Her> You know, I could get to like it when you're tough.
Him> Okay. Do your share of the housework, or I walk. That tough enough for
you?
Her> You know angry gives you wrinkles.
You'll see this dialog if the male fills up his last trouble circle. The game
ends with the male leaving.
Him> Right, that's it! Enough is enough! I am NOT your personal slave.
Her> Now there's an idea.
Him> Really? What did you have in mind!
Her> I'm sure you're imaginative enough to work that out
Him> Sorry, we'll both have to imagine it. I've bought another flat. You can
keep the furniture. But me and the money are moving out to start a new life
together.
