## Chapters

### Chilly Chums

#### Starting Dialogue

**Rival:** Nice place! It’s kind of basic, but I’m sure you’re not done yet.

**You:** Thanks, I think. When you say “basic”, you must mean “basically amazing”. Or maybe you have a basic vocabulary.

#### Ending Dialogue

**Rival:** Thanks for having me over. I’m trying to expand my social circle. Looks like I’ve found the outskirts of it.

**You:** Maybe next time you can find some deodorant.

### Angry Acquaintances

#### Starting Dialogue

**You:** So our mutual friends told me about the party you threw last weekend.

**Rival:** Oh yeah, sorry I didn’t invite you. You just don’t have a party personality. I’d say it’s more of a dental office personality.

**You:** What? What does that even mean?

#### Ending Dialogue

**Rival:** Interesting how we have so many mutual friends. You just seem so different from them.

**You:** Yeah, the more time I spend with you the more I appreciate how patient our friends must be.

### Passive Aggressive Pals

#### Starting Dialogue

**Rival:** ...and that’s when I decided to do things my way. I know you didn’t ask me, but I figured you could use the advice.

**You:** Was it really necessary for that story to be so long?

**Rival:** You’re welcome.

#### Ending Dialogue

**Rival:** No offense, but I think you could work on your social skills. You’d get further in life.

**You:** Would that get me further away from you?

**Rival:** What was that? You also mumble.

### Adversaries

#### Starting Dialogue

**You:** I feel like I get along with most sims, but this one really rubs me the wrong way. Something about them is just so... irritating.

#### Ending Dialogue

**You:** Wow, look at the time! It’s getting so late. Feels like it’s been hours.

**Rival:** Has it? Your place is always so dark and cramped, I guess I didn’t really notice how late it was.

### Ornery Opponents

#### Starting Dialogue

**Rival:** I saw you entered the contest at the cafe for new coffee recipe. Just so you know, mine will be hard to beat.

**You:** Yeah, okay. I doubt anyone will want zucchini spice lattes.

**Rival:** Pumpkin spice is out! Sims love zucchini bread and zucchini noodles. Why not lattes?

#### Ending Dialogue

**You:** I can’t believe your zucchini latte recipe won the cafes drink competition! What was everyone thinking?

**Rival:** I’m friends with the judges, but, more importantly, my recipe is brilliant.

**You:** Friends with the judges? Why you cheater! That’s it. I’m tired of playing nice.

### Enemies

#### Starting Dialogue

**You:** What’s your problem? Guess you can’t bolt that bragging mouth shut.

**Rival:** It’s a pretty tall order to keep quiet in the presence of the worlds most irritating AND pitiful person.

**You:** So the truth comes out!

#### Ending Dialogue

**Rival:** You might want to back off. Your personality is starting to show.

**You:** Yeah, I’d better make sure you don’t try and steal it. You are a soul-sucking void after all.

### Festering Foes

#### Starting Dialogue

**Rival:** So, how should we handle officially being enemies? Duels? Skirmishes? Brunch?

**You:** Ugh, everything is so complicated with you. You don’t like me and I don’t like you, so let’s leave it at that.

#### Ending Dialogue

**Rival:** You can’t even do a rivalry right. I should have known you wouldn’t be able to fully invest in it. You’re a quitter.

**You:** What are you even talking about? Of course I’m not going to invest any time in you. I don’t even know why you keep coming over here.

### Destructive Duo

#### Starting Dialogue

**Rival:** Your commitment to our rivalry is pathetic.

**You:** Can’t you give this a rest? I have a life you know.

**Rival:** Not much of one.

#### Ending Dialogue

**You:** I saw you’re having a party the same day as mine. Kind of a low blow, even for you.

**Rival:** Oh, is it the same day? I didn’t even notice.

**You:** You pointed out that it’s the same day as my party in the event description.

### Nemeses

#### Starting Dialogue

**Rival:** I tolerate you because it’s a small town, but you’re really trying my patience. I’ve been nice and this is how you repay me?

**You:** Nice?! Wow. I’d hate to get on your bad side.

**Rival:** Whatever.

#### Ending Dialogue

**Rival:** All this fighting is starting to get exhausting. Let’s call a truce.

**You:** Ha! Like I’d fall for that. Sims don’t change, especially spineless blobs.

**Rival:** Fine. Walk all over my peace offering. IT’S ON!
