Pleasantview 7/14/25

 Orphanage Unit One (see PV 5/5/25) had five kids this round (Kyra Broke's mother regained custody of her.)

Maya Tellerman is causing lots of drama by skipping school and fighting with the other girls.  She was forced to attend class this round, as she had a D-, and brought her grades up slightly as a result.  She will finish high school next round.

Mari Alpha went to school and had the day off from work.

Olivia Landgraab went to school but has shown no interest in getting a job.  Her future is still undecided.

Keegan Alpha and Asia Kim both grew into toddlers.

Michelle, in a surprising turn of events, decided to leave her position at the orphanage in order to move in with Gavin Jacquet, who she very recently got romantically involved with.  It makes sense in a way.  Gavin is very wealthy (or at least his mother is), so he's perhaps a better catch than Derek.  I can see her wanting to get on with her life and raise some children of her own maybe.  Gavin is Family, so he'll definitely be on board as well.  Poor Derek though.  Gavin is an elder now, so maybe Michelle and Derek will reunite after he's gone.  Who knows?  In any event, a new orphanage worker was needed and George McCarthy was moved in to take Michelle's place.  We'll learn more about him next time.

Orphanage Unit Two (see PV 5/5/25) had five kids this round.

The two older boys (Jeremy Landgraab and Beck Tellerman) attended school.

Rachel Landgraab remains a toddler.

Merlin received two new charges - twins Anthony and Ashley Ruben, who remain infants.

Ella Ottomas (see PV 5/5/25) went out with some of her elder lady friends to Hunter's Park before heading out to work.  She was still short a friend, so I didn't expect a promotion, but one of her friends (Tammy Ottomas, who, incidentally, is Ella's ex-husband's aunt) pulled some strings for her, scoring her the final promotion needed to reach her LTW of topping Dance.  She rolled the new LTW to make 20 Pet BFs and will now be running out her vacation time before retiring.

Buffy Summers (see PV 5/5/25) had an uneventful round.  Count Nery did not come by.  I may need to find someone in town who's friends with him to move him in so I can control him and send him into the sun.

Caryl Landgraab's (see PV 5/5/25) business is doing quite well; she ranked up to level 5 and earned a profit of nearly $3500.  Scott had another day off which he spent cleaning, teaching toddler skills to Dustin, and working on charisma skill.  In the evening, Billy grew into a teen with the LTW to top Architecture.  Side note: One of the elder cats died, and a litter of kittens is due next round.

Happy Simming!
