Spoiler:Cole loves his frogs, and I love that familiar! I also love Edward Hopper's work, but probably wouldn't have guessed you named the frog after him if you hadn't pointed it out it's a great name for the frog!
Cole impressing Felix with his gun show and Olive with her massive hat and umbrella!
The relationship culling between rotations is the worst. Luckily Cole can learn spells from books rather than the sages, but I wish there was a way round it.
Who organises a life drawing class outside in the snow Making clubs for the societies is such a good idea!
I still haven't really played with the roommate feature, so it has been really interesting seeing what yours get up to! Even if it did mean Felix went out with someone else for a little while. Felix and Cole definitely make a better couple
Spoiler:
I initially debated giving him a fox as a familiar, but then I remembered the frog one existed, and I had to go for that. I used to have this great set of CC paintings for TS2 that were sim recreations of some of Hopper's paintings... I wish I could recreate those for TS4, but my posing skills are nowhere near what they used to be in 2.
I feel like it was only impressive to Felix because he has even less guns to speak of than Cole. Jeff, on the other hand... now that would be a gun show! I looove Olive's new look in this save; I was a little worried in the beginning that she looked the least like her original self in comparison to everyone else, but I now think it suits her much better.
I think you can fool around with some MCCC settings to combat it, but I haven't fully tweaked all the settings for this save yet. It is really annoying without mods, though. :/ I would turn relationship decay/culling off entirely, but then they would remember every single townie they have ever run into, and that seems equally annoying!
I would die if I attended a life drawing class held outside in the snow, but what really gets me is that poor poor model. Even in our nice indoor classrooms we had to have the heat on full blast for the models! I really like that the uni clubs give them certain tasks to do to advance their own membership status, while the club system lets you assign uniforms, greetings, etc. Together it just makes the societies/clubs feel properly fleshed out!
I think the roommates are really well done, particularly when you've just got one or two for your sims. They can be a little bit overwhelming in the dorms when you've got about 8 sims leaving various plates of food around, and hosting parties. Felix and his boyfriend were really entertaining, even if that's not quuuite what I had in mind for Felix. Their argument in the bathroom was probably the highlight of the rotation for me because it was just ridiculous.

A frog familiar fits with Cole needing more frogs.
It must be hard being a vampire and having a job that requires you to go out at the show.
I laughed at the "gun show"
I see Felix is still Felix with his unflirty trait meaning nothing.
Yay for possible Leo and Scott!
I like Felix as a ghost, but I suppose he's not as fun if he's not going to DO anything.
I love how you're using the club system with university.
How does a ghost even slip on mud?
No Felix you're supposed to flirt with Cole!
Well at least he's hopefully broken up with his rando boyfriend?
Spoiler:
Felix always does, man!
I really need to have Cole complete the frog collection in this save, the man deserves more frogs.
Yeah, putting a vampire in the conservation careers that is almost entirely based in sunny Sulani was not one of my best ideas.
As I said to Sam, I feel like Felix is only impressed because he has absolutely no guns of his own! Jeff, though... Alec's got great tickets to that gun show.
Honestly, I think Felix wouldn't truly feel like Felix if he wasn't completely ignoring his unflirty trait!
So I did end up moving him in this next rotation because I wanted to change houses, and now that I've played a bit with ghost Felix, I think he'll safely stay undead for the time being. I love the roommate feature, but it doesn't quuuuite work as well for ghosts.
Pairing it with university was such a lightbulb moment for me. I definitely found it useful before for getting together family/friend groups, but combined with the university clubs? Oh man.
I don't know! His legs don't even touch the ground!
While Felix finding himself a rando boyfriend wasn't quite what I had in mind, his stupid little argument with him on the toilet was definitely entertaining.
