Things in The Sims related stuff I don't get: how can The Sims tree charge a subscription? are they an official website? do EA support they're business plan? Do they operate in a trademark loop whole?
As the newest recruit, part of Pvt. Stiles's daily duties was cooking breakfast for the battalion. Good thing he'd spent his whole life making breakfast for his father. His choice of pancakes divided opinions. While some were excited to eat something other than the usual breakfast scramble, others were shocked—pancakes weren't exactly typical battalion fare.
Private Stiles arrived at Oasis Springs Military Base ready to take on his duties. First things first, he met Lieutenant Parker, who wasted no time issuing her orders.
Harisson waited for his dad, Theodore, to come back from his Don't Wake the Llama tournament at the community center to let him know he enlisted and was joining the army. Although Theodore was proud, he didn't approve of the idea too much. I didn't matter, Harrison found his calling and was ready to go.
Marketplace rant: Maybe it’s just me, but it feels like a lot more creators have joined the Marketplace program in the past few months. And honestly? It’s gotten me thinking about how hard it is to fight corporations when they decide they want a piece of something. I get the appeal of the “console players deserve access to CC too” argument. I really do. But the Marketplace still feels like a bitter addition to The Sims 4 community. The more creators join, the more inevitable it all starts to feel. And every time I think I’ve made peace with it, I’m reminded why it leaves such a bad taste in my mouth
Instead of putting on a show like she did in the past, Viviane simply turned around and went away, buying her some time to think. Not exactly typical behavior for a Hot-Headed Sim.
But, hey -- Life is full of surprises. And, apparently, Viviane is too.
Episode 4 under the cut!

I'm still furious at Pedro. Honestly, I don’t even think I have it in me to cry anymore. This man has done this to me so many times.
I picked up extra shifts at both the store and KCB just so I don’t have to look at his face. Not that I really needed to, since he’s barely here anymore. Comes home to grab his supply of weed and disappears again. Gym, bar… anywhere but here.
So today I decided to reclaim the kitchen. I made flaming spaghetti after work.
You know… I used to blame the girls. I thought they were jealous of me. Jealous of us. I used to jump straight at their throats, pulling hair, screaming, giving Pedro the show he wanted.
But after the third time… I realized something. It was never going to stop. Because Pedro was the problem. He craves the attention. He thinks me fighting over him means I love him. He thinks the crying, the apologies, the making up afterward… all that shit... is what healing looks like. It’s not.
I told myself this time I would not forgive him again. I got to keep my word and make a plan.
I came home a bit early today since Pedro said he was going to the gym. I’ve been feeling so down these days… I just grabbed a beer, turned on my telenovela, and tried not to think about anything.
That’s when Falco (that guy who works with Pedro) knocked on the door.
Falco's Interview Transcript:
FALCO: I come over to speak to Tchucho… initially. (drag) I must remind him his loan almost due. [REDACTED] must be paid. Otherwise… rules are enforced. Usually that conversation puts me in good mood, yes. But he was not there. She was.
Falco's Interview Transcript:
FALCO: I did not think she was home… and she looked… very sad. (drag)
FALCO: Maybe I should have left. But… you do not leave woman sitting alone like that, drinking beer and staring at television. So I sit, we talked.
FALCO: This Pedro… he left her alone too much. That is not smart. Not with business like this.
Not with people watching.
Falco was obviously looking for Pedro. I don't know what came over me, but I offered him a beer and asked him to sit. I told him he had a better idea about Pedro's whereabouts at this point then me.
We ended up talking for a while. He told me a few things that made me realize Pedro might actually be in a lot of trouble. Falco tried to play it cool but I could tell.
The thing that gave it away was that he was worried about me.
In his own weird way. He said it wasn’t smart for Pedro to leave me alone like that when he was out doing whatever for [REDACTED].
He said he might stop by sometimes to check in, make sure I don't need anything. He also tried calling Pedro a few times while he was sitting there. Acting casual, but he kept checking his phone.
I asked him point blank if Pedro was in trouble because of the business. He just stared at me and dismissed it. It spoke volumes actually.
Viviane could tell something was off with Pedro, her fiancé. He hadn’t been the same for a while now and faithfulness had never exactly been his strongest trait.
Still, she never realized just how far a man’s audacity could go.

Pedro's Interview Transcript:
PEDRO: Aaah, Dina… patrón, qué mujer! (drag) Qué dulce.
We met at the [REDACTED] bar one of the nights I was hanging out there with the boys. (drag) She works out, you know? Y qué cuerpazo tiene.
I heard she had just broken up with that Don guy and was looking for something… casual. Couldn’t let a prize like that walk away, tú sabe’.
Falco's Interview Transcript:
FALCO: Uh, yes… I saw “Tchucho” speaking to Caliente woman several times at [REDACTED] bar. They seemed… comfortable. Very comfortable. (drag) Like that was not first conversation.
Another night Pedro has to work. I thought he would slow down with the [REDACTED] now that the weed business is taking off, but I guess I was wrong. Acho que o flow nunca para.
I officially developed a Fear of Being Cheated. Of course I did. 🙄
It feels like Pedro and I haven’t been romantic in forever. Maybe it’s paranoia or anxiety. I am exhausted, that’s true… but I also know my partner and we haven't been having sex with the same frequency as before, so... I just have this gut feeling that something isn’t right.😓
Motherf*cker. I knew it.
I am shaking so hard I can barely write this. If I don’t sit down and breathe, I am going to do something I cannot undo.
Okay. Count to ten. Breathe… 😤
Thirty minutes ago I finished my morning shift at the Rat-Tail Store (by the way, the worst shift I’ve had in weeks.)
I don’t usually go straight home after work. I run errands. I stretch the day out. But today something felt… off. Since I had the truck today, I thought I’d pop home and unwind for five seconds before going to KCB.
I felt goosebumps before I even saw them.
I walked into the trailer and saw Pedro kissing Dina Caliente. In MY kitchen. In MY trailer.
I f*cking knew it.
My heart started pounding so hard I thought it might explode. There was this weird humming noise in my head, like my brain was overheating. And, to my own surprise, I turned around and walked straight back to the car.
I didn’t scream.
I didn’t throw anything.
I think I left because if I stayed another second, I would have committed a crime (and this entry would be Exhibit A). Or I would have just dropped dead right there. 💀
I can’t believe I still have the rest of this day to get through!
FUCK YOU PEDRO.
I FUCKING HATE HIM. 😡
Healthy YA Viviane D’Ambrosio died of Anger on her porch.
Two people witnessed it. Neither of them pleaded with the Grim.
Was it fate? Neglect? The Watcher stacking angry interactions onto a hot-headed Sim who was already carrying two rage moodlets? Who’s to say. What we do know is this: Viviane’s anger didn’t max out overnight.
This is the documented chain of events that led to a very preventable porch death and the question: wth?

Natalie turned into an adult and has made Partner in the Lawyer career. She’s mastered Critical Thinking, Art/Painting and Rhetoric and got married to an older dude she met at a blind date during college. They both rolled a Divorce want the very next day and got very happy when they separated. He passed away a few days later.
I thought she's the kind of girl that would chop all of her hair after going through all that, to symbolize the new chapter in her life. So she did, and then she adopted a kid and bought a cafe :D
