Pleasantview 7/31/20

Belinda Alpha is another second gen spare from the Alpha Legacy.  You may remember meeting her sister Bethany.  Belinda is an elder with two grown children, one of whom lives with her.  She also has a grandson.  She's been working in Politics for quite some time and just this round reached the top.  She'll be retiring soon so she got it just in time.  Last round Belinda moved her new girlfriend in, who is unfortunately in the Criminal career, which could mean prison for her.  Belinda's son Bryan has already topped his career and is now working on Woohoo 20.  He's not overly successful at it - he's only got four so far.

Toby Grundstrom's household has always been chaotic.  He is the son of Sadie and Sullivan Grundstrom (former Diva and Mr. Big).  He has two sisters, Tanya and Tess, who he practically raised on his own because his parents could never really be bothered with parenting.  They were so wrapped up in themselves and each other that by the time Toby was a teen, they'd decided parenting wasn't really their thing and took off to parts unknown to enjoy life.  Once his sisters were grown, Toby married Renee (Tellerman) Grundstrom (daughter of Jodie and Komei) and they had three kids together: Mark, Melody, and Caryl.  Toby and Renee divorced when their children were teens, and Renee moved out to live with her brother.  She's deceased now and all three kids are grown, with Melody still living here with her father, since both she and Toby have the LTW of raising 20 puppies or kittens.  Two birds, one stone, right?  Recently Toby remarried a former townie, Dagmar, who is not only a vampire, but also much younger than his children.  Melody can't stand her, but they co-exist for the sake of Roger, Toby and Dagmar's son, who is a child.  Melody also got married recently, to her high school sweetheart, Marcus Hamilton (son of Marylena Hamilton and Gabe Landry), and they are expecting a baby.  It doesn't look as though Toby will reach his LTW before he dies (I estimate he has four or five days left), but Melody might have time to get there.  Plus, once Toby is gone, I'm sure that either Dagmar and Roger or Melody and Marcus will move out.

Ryker Jones is a former townie who has twin daughters with Katie Tellerman, but is now married to another former townie Audrey.  Both Ryker and Audrey are werewolves.  Ryker works in Culinary, though he's never done well at moving up the ladder; Audrey is currently working in Athletics, though she's looking to switch to Business now that she has her online degree.  Though they don't have any children together, one of Ryker's twins, Darlene, lives with them, along with her new husband (one of her former professors) Phil McCullough.  Darlene is a doctor and Phil is looking to get a Science job, but no luck so far.  Darlene and Phil do not plan on having any children, which is probably good, since Phil is the same age as Darlene's father and might not live long enough to see any children grow up.

That's all folks!  Happy Simming!
