Such Colorful Lives | Generation 1 (Red)
San Myshuno style icons and Art Quarter locals, Goldie* and Euphemia* (Effie) Hillman, have been happily married for nearly 40 years. Goldie, is a highly influential and colorful art critic, who spends her days exploring new art exhibits and restaurants around the city. Effie, prefers her monochromatic palette of black, white, and red. She enjoys the finer things in life and is currently editor-in-chief of the fashion magazine, Flamingo. Together, they break all rules of convention!
About 20 years ago, they decided to adopt their daughter, Esmeralda (Essie) from Selvadorada. To their dismay, Essie is as spoiled and entitled as they come. Perhaps it's finally time for some tough love...
Credits: The Hillmans are by the talented @somewhsims. They make incredibly diverse townies with equally beautiful backstories, which is reflected above. Seriously, go check them out (ID: somewhsome)! Special shoutout to @m0ckest for inspiring me try this challenge as well as posting about somewhsims!
Decided to build a more in-depth backstory to help explain the prompts for generation red for Essie. So far I'm having a lot of fun with this challenge! Thank you to @simcloudlogic for the beautiful graphics below and of course to @cowberry-jam for creating this fun challenge!

As she's attempting to knock out some prompts to prove to her boss that her writing is improving, Carmen is served a disappointing drink at one of her usual spots. And like the mean-spirited soul she is, she has something cutting to say to the bartender.

Transcript:
[Location marker]
The Stargazer Lounge
Uptown, San Myshuno
Carmen: Hey, Bill. I heard there's a drought in Oasis Springs. So why is my drink so fucking watered down?
Bartender: That's the normal serving, kid. You got a problem?
Carmen: Yeah, fuck you.
Bartender: Fuck you too, Carmen.

Joyful Mean-Spiritedness

There's a simple pleasure in not worrying about being nice.
