Corona 1.03: Call me, maybe
This legacy isn't gonna generate itself!
Previously: Fury stole her newspaper, and Russ stole her bookcase. Alma had nothing to read!
This legacy isn't gonna generate itself. Time to find a spouse!
Alma looks for love at The Four Corners, my favourite downtown lot. She hits it off with Clay Haggerty.

Alma has two bolts of chemistry with every Sim she meets. My Sims aren't usually this attractive, so I need to narrow the field.
Clay impresses me by cooking up a meal and serving his neighbours. His caring behaviour sets him apart, so let's get better acquainted!

Does Clay look familiar? Full disclosure: he appeared briefly in my Bachelorette challenge. I created him using the Tombstone of Life and Death, and never controlled him. He left the challenge on the third day.
For the purposes of this legacy, I consider Clay to be a townie.

Later that same day, Clay calls!
Alma makes her intentions plain.
Sounds good to Clay. He invites her on an outing.
It's Friday night. I send my party Sims to The Hub, a pre-made lot that I haven't visited.
I see flamingos and love it already.
Clay assembles a good crowd: Chris and Simon Ajjanagadde from Messy Messlot; Marisa Bendett, who likes to party; and... two kids.
Forget the kids. Clay is excited for this outing! That's what I wanna see.
Alma chats with the Slobs before turning to --
Whoops! Where'd he go?
I catch up with Clay in the kitchen. He sure does like to cook on community lots.
He's still with the program. Clay finds his way back to Alma and this outing gets back on track, legacy-wise.

A little flirting is in order. Clay gets a crush on Alma!
The kid soaks it up.
At least he's polite.
The outing is fun, but exhausting. Alma heads home to rest -- and, to winter. More wonky seasons: my downtown 'hood is set to perpetual summer.
Look who's waiting to greet her! Thomas stops by to see Alma.

Alma musters enough energy for a snowball fight. Free fun!
Remember Thom's dance moves? Here they are, snowball edition.
The 'phone rings. It's Clay! He asks her on a *second* outing, for the same night. That's gotta mean something.
Alma is just too tired. She has to decline.
Thomas senses a budding romance. He wants *all* the juicy details!

Coming up: It's suddenly spring, and suddenly love is in the air! Alma and Clay lose their inhibitions at the Lost in Love Hedge Maze. Will they lose their hearts, too?
