Back at Greenhaven U., Brighid had graduated with a degree in Art. She moved back to the family homestead just long enough to drop off Bethany’s childhood bed, which she had unthinkingly brought with her to college. Unfortunately, this did nothing to appease Beth’s angry ghost.
Brighid quickly found a place of her own, a cozy townhouse just big enough for her and her fiancé Timothy. She began a career in Show Business, moving rapidly through the industry, while Tim gave up his teaching to search for a new path in life.
When Brandon finally graduated, he didn’t even bother with a party. Finding a home and settling down wasn’t on his agenda either. He headed off into town on his own to “sow his wild oats” instead.
Barb had moved out of the family home rather quickly after the shock of her alien experience, and Beatrice followed soon after, having discovered she had nothing more to accomplish as a teen. Once her dream of becoming a vampire had been fulfilled, she headed out to the university, accompanied by her partner, Alicia. Barbara chose one of the campus dorms to live in, while Alicia and Beatrice pooled their funds to rent a place of their own.
They found a plot of land near campus and built themselves…well, perhaps it wasn’t truly a castle, per se. Both girls loved the pure romance of it, though. The ancient castle of an evil – well, okay, perhaps just occasionally grouchy – vampire. Inside, the newly christened “Castle Petras” was decorated in a style befitting a vampire’s manorial abode, as well.
It seemed the two Knowledge sims were still a great match. They regretted the day that they would have to leave their little castle, but they tried to stay focused on their studies.
On the other side of campus, the ever-forgetful Nicholas had finally met with an ashy end one afternoon when he decided to go out for pizza. Not only did he burn up in the hot sunlight, the pizza was burnt and inedible as well. But it did give the “Chams” additional bragging rights as having the only haunted building on campus.
With Brighid, Brandon, and Nick gone, Benjamin and Nicole now found themselves practically rattling around the otherwise empty Greek house. They were uncertain if any of the younger Petras kids would move in before the two of them graduated. Both Brad and Barbara had pledged already, but neither had chosen to move in yet. Brad, certainly, had made it clear that he preferred his small dorm to the large and (he assumed) noisy Greek house. As for Beatrice…well, who knew what she would do. The girl was batty in more ways than one. The remaining Chams began to wonder if they should ask one of their other pledges to move in with them, or wait to see what Ben’s siblings would do.

Custom Content: Yes, I’m putting these back in because I haven’t managed to take the time to build my ‘tour’ pages, especially when buildings and sims keep getting makeovers.
I haven’t gotten all the exact addies yet, but the furniture in Castle Petras is from Tarox Sims, aka "DesignSims2", under ‘Möbel’. It’s the library set that’s 2 sets below "Tarox Girlroom" (it has no label of its own). Most of the walls and doors are from the wonderful "A Midsimmer Night’s Dream" Sets by the Magick Modders Team at MTS2 (Lethe_Battlements and Tower.zip, New Lethe Medieval doors + recolors.zip, Lethe_s_Carved wood.zip, Lethe_Medieval Chic pack.zip). The stone floor may be from there too. The chair…er…I’ve got the name somewhere, and I believe there’s one wallpaper that’s part of the download for a lot named "Shakespeares Cottage" from rattatouie!@loverat.net. Don’t ask where that carpet’s from.
Brighid’s bedroom set is the "Secret Garden Bedroom" set by Waverly at TSR. Her outfit and the mesh that goes with it are also from TSR: "Knit Top" by Nanshi Nibble, a recolor to go with Grizzelda’s "mesh_lcmminiheels052005". Most everything else has been mentioned before, I think.
I’ll get the specifics as soon as I get all these blogs up, I’ve waited too long to update.
