Fanon:Jennifer Burb (C.Syde)

Jennifer Pleasant (née Pleasant) is a well known resident in my player stories in The Sims 2 in Pleasantview. She is the daughter to the late Jeff and Diane Pleasant (née Danders), the younger sister to Daniel Pleasant, the auntie to Angela and Lilith Pleasant, the wife to John Burb, and the father to Lucy Burb. Jennifer is voiced by Zoe Galvez and is 25 days from being an Elder.

Jennifer has actually had little prominence in my player stories due to having been written out of my first draft along with all the other Family bin Sims in Pleasantview. When I first began playing the Sims 2, I wasn't very interested in using the pre-made Sims, but my feelings changed after a few days. When I changed computers and re-did everything from scratch, I kept all the Sims from the family bin. Jennifer does seem to have had a larger role in my stories than her husband John.

In the Sims 2 base game, there is no career in the Sims 2 that focuses on being fashionable and stylish. Personality wise, my adaption of Jennifer seems to be a mixture between her Sims counterpart and her Sims 2 one. Her dream of becoming a football superstar has resurfaced, while on the outside, she still looks like a stylist. Jennifer is employed in the Athletic career, starting off as a Rookie. While she has 4 body points, she is only half way from having top (or bottom) fitness.

Jennifer has a slightly negative relation to the former town gangster, my CAS Kingston Starker. However she doesn't have a bad relationship with his son Rifle, while many Sims in Pleasantview consider him an enemy. Rifle is falsely accused of planning to be his father's successor. It is unclear whether Jennifer approves of her daughter's friendship with Rifle. When Jennifer and Kingston first met, she turned down his request for flirting, which angered Kingston into slapping her.

Jennifer is now friends with Pleasantview Townie Ivy Copur.

Trivia

 * Her thumbnail (seen above) is the same as the default one, except that the one I uploaded is less polygonal and the graphics have not been rendered.
 * She is one of the few Sims in my game who is a Vegetarian.
 * Even though Jennifer is a member of the Pleasant family, during 2011 when I was still unfamiliar with the Sims' family connections, I erroneously credited her as being a distant relative to the Goth family.
 * Jennifer actually did have an Affair with Kingston, at one point when playing the Sims 2. Because this is no longer considered canon, she is not considered to be a cheating Sim.
 * It is unknown how Jennifer felt about Daniel's affair with his Maid and now wife, Kaylynn Langerak, because she never witnesses this betrayal.
 * While Jennifer has the Fortune Aspiration, she would have made a great Family Sim.
 * Despite her career, Jennifer isn't very interested in sports.
