We are still in Strangetown, this time for Lola Curious who has moved in with the Grunt family because she is in love with Tank. His Dad -General Buzz- is just informing his two sons (Buck is the youngest) that he has become a father of twins with none other than Lola's twin sister Chloe!
Tank decided once and for all to remove his face paint.
Better, although he is very much like his Dad in looks.
While Lola went off to her job in Law and Buck to school, General Buzz searched for his one true career which is Media. No luck today.
Tank wants to be a General just like his father but no work for him today so he washed the family dog, Shep.
General Buzz made his 10th best friend in Pollination Technician #9.
Buck came home from school and his big brother Ripp walked by from college but did not come in- he was still mad at his Dad over Chloe who he also loves.
When Lola returned from work as a Paralegal, Tank surprised her with a proposal- she said Yes!
A quick arrangement in the garden and a party was thrown for all their friends and family,
Meet Mr & Mrs Grunt.
During the party a poor choice on a chance card gave Shep a demotion, he is in a very bad mood as you can see!
Tuesday dawned and both Buzz and Buck had been up all night... Buck will get used to that as he is leaving immediately for college! He is joining Luna Curious & co in a dorm and we will see him when it's his turn on the playlist.
Tank made his 5th best friend.
As General Buzz served chili for lunch he interrogated Lola on her cooking ability!
Buzz of course is highly skilled frugal and does everything around the house including repairs.
On Wednesday a visibly pregnant Lola created omelettes in the hope that her new father-in-law would approve- he did.
While Buzz went to work with a smile poor Shep wasn't happy at not being taken for a walk that morning as Lola and Tank also went to work.
Buzz had a tough decision to make- he chose to Intercept...
and it paid off very nicely for him! He was pleased as only yesterday did he get his promotion to General back after a poor chance card last round.
Tank is doing well too and is now a Junior Officer, he is teaching Shep to 'play dead'.
General Buzz arrived home a little later not by helicopter but by the dogs' ride to work I think, shame it would have been fun to see Shep leap into a helicopter!
General Buzz came home with flu' but also brought Nervous Subject home. He influenced him to cook dinner.
Thankfully Nervous must have known there was sickness in the house (Lola too) and made Comfort Soup.
A hearty bowl of that and Buzz & Lola were better in no time.
On Thursday the new Counter Intelligence Officer Tank bought his colleague Joel Jeffress home.
The evening was spent for Tank and General Buzz phoning their respective acquaintances whilst Lola rested.
In the early hours of Friday Lola and Tank welcomed a daughter, Jade Grunt.
General Buzz is a hands on Grandpa, his kids' hired a nanny but he beat her to the cuddles.
He still gave her a good tip for her time though.
The day finished well with Lola being promoted to Personal Injury Attorney and Tank a Flight Officer.
On Saturday Buzz finished what Tank started and taught Shep to 'play dead'.
Tank maxed his body skill, he's in the greatest shape of his life.
That evening Lola worked on her post baby body whilst Tank gazed at the stars.
They both woke up at night very overheated. I shall have to check the roof next round.
General Buzz is a much nicer Grandpa than a Father, although his relationship with Tank and Buck is good he still needs to work on one with his son Ripp.
Later on Saturday General Buzz became an elder! Oops I forgot.
It made Lola hastily throw a party for him, but really it was for little Jade.
There was a slight glitch so Grandpa Buzz was the one to take Jade to the cake in the end.
Here she is with her Mum. :)
Sunday morning started with Grandpa Buzz teaching Jade to talk,
Tank had his new best friend Ashley Pitts over.
and Shep is now a contraband sniffer! Top of career for him and 5K earned.
General Buzz decided the time was right to move out... 'bye Grandpa'. *sniff*
He is joining Erin Beaker at the new Single Senior house where we will catch up with him soon.
Lola gave Jade lots of cuddles and taught her to walk after promising that of course she'll still see her Grandpa.
Summary-
whew what a week. I decided it was easier to ship Buck off to college and he wanted to go anyway.
I find it hard to distinguish between Buzz and Tank regardless of their face masks and had a few near romantic misses. :D
Interesting observation- having played Lola & Chloe several times I wonder if with the first of them to give birth it is always twins, as last time I played them it was Lola who had twins (with General Buzz would you believe?!- maybe it's him?!).
Shep got demoted twice this week with chance cards which is why I didn't rush him learning his last trick but he got there in the end. Of course he's Buck's dog really, I wonder if Buck will come home after college and claim him?
Lola didn't get too many promotions and I totally forgot about General Buzz looking for Media after that one time, feels like he was meant to always be a General anyway. :)
Jade is a cutie, she is 10 Neat, 9 Outgoing, 7 Nice and 6 Active, finally someone in this house who will love to clean!
next is a visit to Pleasantview with a new addition, Chris Cwik, who is the chosen love of Alexander Goth, they are in college.
