Thank Eru for small favours

You know, being at the start of a game is annoying, especially when you can't cheat.

I had a doctor's appointment today, that gave me some time to concentrate on FFIV. The Dalmycan desert - at the first visit to Kaipo - is a pain to start with because Rydia is so weak. It helped a great deal once she'd got up a couple of levels and could actually do some damage with her spells.

I had one point where I had no gil, no tent and no Phoenix Downs, and just had to let Rydia stay dead until Cecil had got the money for a Down and an Inn stay. That was a pain. Thankfully it was just after that when Rydia levelled up to point where her spells could kill the cold-weak creatures (which 3/4 of the encounters in the desert are just that) and after the next level could kill everything encountered... except that big toothy worm-thing. Still haven't re-encountered that yet, must be rare.

At least now I have a cap on Rydia, and a staff. Plus I am actually making progress with gil, not going from one inn-stay to the next. Now I just need to get some gil to stock up on Potions and Phoenix downs, then maybe I'll try the waterway.

Double-yuu Tee Eff?

Of all the strange things... for some mysterious reason, the house that the Seekers were in, in the Sims, has vanished and the Seekers were in the Families bin (the place that families get put when they aren't placed on a lot).

Currently, I have all of the Seekers living across the road from where their house was - in the house that Starscream and Soundwave have just moved in to. I have a new lot across from them, but it's a blank lot, not a repeat of the old lot (that has it's issues for why I am not totally happy with it), but I just realised I'm going to have to move someone out of Star and Sound's house to claim it. *Sigh*

Anyway, I'm going to try building my own attempt at a house for them. At least I only have to set up... four rooms? Maybe I'll do five, with possible plans of a child for Warp and TC.
