Round 8 - Summary
Wow, two sim!years passed so quick! :D
The Residents:
Masterson:
Popcorn, the cat joined the family, but they didn't forget about Libby the hedgehog
Piper had to paint two pictures, but later Wilbur became much more interested in this hobby than his wife
Emmett engaged a townie girl, June, then they got married, and now they're expecting their first child
He also opened his first business, the Sportsy Store, where he sells sport equipments
Hope grew up to an adult, and became involved with Tristan Woods again
Danielson:
The Fire Station was doing rather well, although some customers weren't satisfied with Davey's dazzling skills
All the kids had their birthdays: the twins, Evander and Shawn grew up to teens, and Berenice became a beautiful adult woman
Snowflake was cute as usual
Despite their age, the parents, Abigail and Davey had another child, Missy, who - because of that - is much younger than her siblings
And Berenice will probably move out to her own house
Danielson-Novak:
The Gel & Hairspray salon was doing great, but there were 'interesting' makeovers too
Natalie tried to forget Niko, so she had dates with a few townies
Payton grew up to a teen, and became best friends with his cousin, Evander
Natalie managed to give bad makeovers to her own family members too
Novak:
Niko had to stay at home for 3 days due to the ROS event.
He had some visitors though, like his newfound love interest, Velma, the creepy townie girl, and his son, Payton
When he finally escaped, he was working hard at the Sunshine Pool (which moved up a rank)
Velma moved in and got pregnant, so they'll move out next round
Woods:
The Woods house got a little makeover, so Tristan could get a bigger room
The businesses operated decently
Poor Artemis cat died again, but this time she stayed in that state
Tristan continued dating Hope Masterson, and they became engaged, and then she moved in (that's why she appears in two family pictures)
And, as usual, the cats were everywhere
Woods II:
The family were poor, and the Science Center didn't help that much
Baby Christine became an adorable toddler, and quickly made friends with the dog, Smiley
Brett tried to grow not so bland fruits and vegetables
Leann became pregnant again, so they're expecting their second child
Sergeant:
They lost 2500 simoleons due to a ROS event
The kittens were everywhere, and were cute!
The Addiction Arcade was doing great as usual, including a lot of smustling
Leonard practiced his warlockness, but in the end of the round, he passed away :(
Sergeant-Hawk:
The family moved to a brand new and colorful house, and they had to get some loan to buy it
Cailin gave birth to a baby girl, Fanny, who turned out to be a carbon copy of Caleb
All the kids grow up, Ian and Bethany became children, and Fanny a toddler
Unfortunately, Cailin didn't have much time to work in her business, the Finest Grilled Cheese, maybe next round
Sergeant II:
Little Yvette became a cute toddler, than a child. They grow up so fast!
Charlie studied a lot, and made some friends as well
Rachel hired Trenton, the sameshirt townie to help her at the Pixel Pets store. The business was doing okay
And then she became pregnant again
Also, Finley finally opened his toystore, the Fantastic Toys
Cinderford:
Louis moved to the old Masterson house and redecorated it a bit
Since the wires were old, he had to be without electricity for 4 days
And since he couldn't call his fiancée, Alice, he went on adventures to find her. When he finally found her, she moved in and they could get married
Also, Louis could open the Cinderford Photos store where he sells cameras and his own photographs
In the end of the round, Alice became pregnant
Banks:
The family experienced the weirdest garden inspection ever
Aubrey tried to find a mate with the help of the matchmaker, and she was successful for the 3rd try, which resulted a romance between her and a townie, Marly
The Book Nook was doing regularly well
Cornelia continued practising her witchcraft on the (not so) poor visitors
Finally, Marly and Aubrey got engaged, she moved in, and now they're expecting their first child(ren)
Banks II:
Olivia gave birth to a baby girl, Carla, who ended up looking a lot like her
There was "maturity" everywhere
Due to the ROS event, they had to buy a tv and gather (part of) the family for a movie night
In the end, Olivia got pregnant again
Favreau:
Nimrod, Desiree and Aiden moved to Griffinmere
Nimrod started a new institution, the Police Station, and became Griffinmere's first police officer
Aiden got really close with Berenice Danielson (and they're so cute!)
Desiree got through various dates (one of them resulted a hilarious hate letter)
And Nimrod went on a date with a garden club lady, called Jessica, we'll see what'll happen to them next round
Kinsley:
Due to the ROS event, Alyssa changed her aspiration to Romance and had a lot of "fun" with her husband, Nemo
Jude grew up to a handsome teen, and started dating Evander Danielson, with more or less success
Alyssa gave birth to a baby girl, Lydia. She became a really cute toddler, later
Myra skipped homework for a few days, and then she wasn't happy when she had to do it
As usual, the kids didn't like studying at school, but they enjoyed the afterschool activities (not including the burnt food that Nemo gave them)
