Summary: Michael meets someone new during a class.
Notes: This did not happen in my sims game, and also has very little actual relevance to the Sims, so I'm not tagging it Gesso here. This is entirely inspired by an irate tumblr post that I saw like ten or twelve years ago complaining about fanfics that used nude modeling art class as like, a sexy meet cute scenario, which went into great detail about how nude modeling art class is the least sexy scenario ever. Anyway, I have never actually read a fanfic like that (I think I just don't read enough college AUs) so this scenario had never really occurred to me before, and my brain immediately went, ok, but what if it was an unsexy meet cute, like the model went into it with a completely wrong set of expectations and it didn't work out like they'd planned? And then I immediately started imagining this happening to my neighborhood's resident slutty art student. I'm not an artist and have never been in one of these classes, so all of the details here are sourced directly from my decade-old memories of a funny tumblr post, so I apologize for any inaccuracies. Hopefully this is actually as funny as it was in my head.
