Pleasantview 8/13/20

Claire Tellerman is the daughter of Katie Tellerman; she has six living siblings and two children.  She's also a vampire.  Life is pretty much a daily struggle for Claire.  She didn't graduate high school, so getting a job in Business is out of the question.  Working in general is difficult due to being a vampire and having two young children to care for and little money for a nanny.  Luckily for Claire her kids, Laura and Jesse, grew into teen and child, respectively, last round so they don't need as much care from her.  Her primary source of income is from financial consulting, which keeps the bills paid and food on the table, but it's not enough to pay for her GED, much less provide college funds for her children.  Jesse's father, Alon Kim, contributes to his fund, but Laura is out of luck given that she's adopted and therefore has no other parent to depend on.  This round Claire had the flu and I was afraid I might lose her because she kept getting out of her coffin all day until her needs were very low.  She just barely survived.  Honestly, I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.  Her children would've gone to live with their grandmother if she'd died, which probably would've been great for them.  Que sera, sera.

Zena Dreamer is the alien daughter of Jay Goss.  She comes from the alien lot downtown and has two official brothers.  Zena was married to Nathan Dreamer briefly, a man old enough to be her father at least, and their union produced a daughter, Nevada, who is currently a child.  Zena is doing well in her career and Nathan helps out financially with Nevada's college fund, so while they're not wealthy, they're doing fine.  Zena hasn't started dating again yet, but she had a group outing this round that included Evan Broke and I noticed they have three bolts.  Evan is currently married, but his wife is Lakshmi, who has been married three times, and if I recall their relationship is not strong at the moment, so he could be a possibility at some point.  We'll see how it goes.

Marie Mazza is a former townie who used to be involved with Armando Ottomas.  After they broke up, Marie moved to a tiny one bedroom house in Pleasant Valley.  Almost immediately following her move two things happened: first she got pregnant from a one night stand with Alon Kim, then she became a vampire.  This round her son was born and she named him Theo.  After buying a crib and changing table, Marie is nearly broke.  She'll have a few more vacation days, but then she's going to have to hire a nanny and get back to her day job, which sucks for a vampire.  Hopefully she'll survive.

Cole and Brittany Long recently moved to Pleasant Valley because they needed a larger home for their rapidly growing family.  They haven't been married terribly long, but they already have a child, a toddler, and a baby on the way.  Cole is a third generation spare of the Alpha Legacy; Brittany is a former townie.  Cole's LTW is to have six grandchildren, so in the meantime he's working in the Athletic career.  Brittany wants to work in Education, but she needs a masters for that, so she's working in Culinary and working on her degree online.  They had to spend the bulk of their savings to buy and remodel the house, so they don't have a lot of money right now.  I'm a little concerned that Brittany has not had her first pop yet, though they couldn't try for baby so I'm confident she is pregnant.  I've had sims who never popped and still had their babies, so I'm hoping all will work out.

Happy Simming!
