(sigh) Reed Keller… He’s so swoon worthy! Reed’s character has existed in my mind for a long time, but I came up with him after the story started. I was thinking about Mary, as I often do, and something wasn’t quite right. She was too perfect, and I needed her to have more reasons to stay away from Newcrest than just the fear of being gossiped about (although for someone like her, that’s reason enough). I wanted her to either feel guilty about something or running away from something. But, at the same time, I didn’t want it to be majorly horrible. Like, if she and John ever argued about it, he would try to condemn her, but he really had no leg to stand on. I also thought it was a bit insane to believe that no one else would have been interested in Mary as gorgeous and popular she was. So, enter Reed!
Reed Keller, the man we know, didn’t exist until a few months ago. I got it in my head that I wanted to do a Jones prequel so we could see live and up close what happened behind the scenes and also get to know John better. I created Reed from two sims I had already made and thought would make gorgeous children together…and boy was I right! I’ll have to find a way to get his parents into the story so we can meet them. They do live in the world as does Arnold Jones, but as of now I have no plans to ever show them. Anyway, this little blurb is supposed to be about Reed, so here’s Reed!
- What is your name? Reed. Reed Keller.
- Do you know why you were named that? I do not.

- Do you have any activities/hobbies that you like to do? I like to keep in shape.
- Have you ever hurt anyone in any way before? I was engaged once. I was in love with someone I couldn’t have, so I tried settling for someone else. I let it get too far. I wish she could understand how sorry I am.
- Ever… killed anyone before? No.
- What kind of animal are you? *grins devilishly* I’m a tiger. Definitely a tiger.
- Name your worst weaknesses. *sighs* You know…I try not to bring her up much, especially in an unflattering way, but when it comes to Mary Jones, I just lose my crap.
- Do you look up to anyone at all? I look up to the mayor in Oasis Springs. I hope to be him one day.

He is one hot man .. enough to curl your toes!
HA!!
Interesting guy . … and I’m very interested in this prequel !
Yeah! I’m still kind of itching to do it, but I don’t know. With Reed in the story now, there’s not much extra to add except John’s perspective…which is really what we want, right? lol
I wouldn’t mind seeing John’s perspective when they got together. I would honestly like to know exactly how Mary ended up getting pregnant by John instead of a handsome devil like Reed all those years ago. Mmm…Reed….I see you! 😉 Btw, I’m loving all these OC Tags. It’s nice seeing another side of your characters.
Your mother never gave you the woohoo talk? LOL, it’s quite simple how she got pregnant by John. I’m messing with ya, of course. Glad you’re enjoying these tags!
Hahaha!
A Prequel would be so awesome! What a terrific idea! Now, this Reed guy is soooo handsome and suave. I love his eyes. I want to know EVERYTHING about him and Mary!! 😀 <3
Ha ha ha! We’ll see! We will see lol.
Those answers certainly give you an idea of his personality! Well done! One very gorgeous sim!
Hello there! Why thank you!
He’s kind of giving me Mr. Big vibes, like from Sex and the City, and I mean that a a compliment. It’s something about the way he answers questions. He answers the whole question, but somehow narrows the scope and gives you nothing.
Plus he’s rich, charming, and walks into the life of the woman he loves and blows the whole thing up with a smile.
Ha ha! Blows the whole thing up with a smile…I love that! I also love the way you described his answers.
