Emma is very animated while catching up with her friends, but she does have a lot of news to share. Her last rotation showed her to be kind of directionless- she wasn't business or career driven, was slow to make friends, and quick to sleep with the male population of the neighborhood.
Case in point, she added Lance Beckett to her list of conquests.
But Emma started to mature. She was spinning wants for one sim, and he became her exclusive booty call.
Meet Andy Peterson
Andy is a Knowledge sim and a Sagittarius. He and Emma have 3 bolts for each other, so I took a chance and moved him in. Emma issued a warning to him, which I found rather funny.
It's like she's telling him she might cheat on him!
He doesn't seem to mind.
Andy is a pretty easy sim to get along with: he spins wants to stargaze and enjoys fishing.
Meanwhile Emma spends most of her time in the garden, to keep the Farmer's Market stocked.
I thought these two would be content to fish and garden forever, but then Emma got a big idea and spun a want to tell me what she really wanted to do.
To be honest, Emma is not a very good robot crafter. The majority of her robots end up sparking. But hey, when you're going to open the town's first electronics store, who cares?
Emma opens a small electronics store to sell her robots, gaming systems, and cell phones (though I can't get anyone to actually buy a phone. Hmm...). Eventually she may expand to selling TVs, stereos, etc but for now, we're keeping it small.
After opening the store and also checking in at the Farmer's Market, Emma begins to focus on her personal life.
For my second free community lot, I added a church/wedding venue. I was so excited for Emma and Andy to get married there, that I completely forgot to change them into wedding clothes.
Admittedly, they got married just in time...
Meet baby boy Charlie Simms, who looks exactly like his daddy Andy. He was born on the very last day of their rotation, so it's time to move on.
