The next challenge was painting.
"Okay, very simple. Whoever makes the most valuable painting is the winner of this round."
They all worked quite hard on this challenge. Who doesn't want to believe they can be an artist? but the products were disappointing.
"This reminds me of those old painting contests in TSO."
"You're not old enough to remember TSO."
"Am too."
Meggie and Motoki carried on painting well into the night.
Then Motoki went to sleep by the shower. But Jeebus beat him to it anyway.
Jeebus then went to start a pillow-fight with Jess. Ghosts can pillow-fight?
And into the next day, Meggie was still painting.
At the end of three days painting, the results were far from impressive. The best paintings they had made were as follows:
Jess §29
Motoki §40
Meggie §61
Snow didn't complete her painting.
Jeromy §52
So Meggie won!
Time for another removal.
Meggie and Snow had made best friends, and for that Tita rewarded them by building a small hut as a dormitory. It doubled as an art gallery.
That night Jeebus came out to haunt. Seriously.
Chose a bed for himself.
More pillow-fight.
He picked a pillow fight with Snow, which turned into insults, and slapping - and a fight. He beat her thoroughly.
In the morning, Tita summoned them all to the graveyard. Snow was still fuming.
Worried Meggie was worried.
But it was Jess's turn.
"What goes around, comes around. I found out who stole my clothes."
"It's cool. I'm getting old, I've always hoped I would die before I got old."
"I'm going to that great Sim camp in the sky. At least they'll have better bathrooms."
I think I hear SimGoddess laughing. "Oh, no you're not. You're staying right there."
Jesslla died of old age. Meggie, her new best friend, was very upset, and so was Snow.
And in fact she did hang around. Later that evening, she and Jeromy roasted stuff.
And then she pinched HIS NEW bed.
Myskaal noticed her in the vegetable patch.
He showed her how to haunt the beds.
