Lot: Lighthouse (Storm)

When we last visited this house (over a year ago oof), we had a bunch of birthdays: Troy and Vera reached elderhood, and Paloma grew up to an adult.

Troy's fish shop reopened after a renovation with an expanded selection of frozen products. Alicia tried dating, but the first attempt had more jokes and less art enthusiasm than she would prefer.

At the end of the round, Paloma moved out to study at Rustfall University, almost a six-hour trip away from Foxfire.

Troy ...Vera didn't see how my father struggled with parenting. He would not have made the mistake of having a child again. This boy isn't closely related, I'm sure of it.

Marshall "Sorry, ma'am—eh, Vera, that is. Ain't had time to dress up yet."

Veronica "Oh, nothing I'm not used to seeing! I ask people to undress all the time."

Marshall "Uh... yea, that's what doctors do, I suppose."

Veronica "That we do. Any plans for today?"

Marshall "Poppin' by the library and checkin' those archives... a sound suggestion, that. Might be somethin' about my family, there."

Veronica "If you need a guide, go ahead and ask Alicia. She knows how to use the library. "

Marshall "She wouldn't mind helpin'...?"

Veronica "I know she's prone to complain, but given some time, she usually sees the reason. Definitely cut from the same cloth as her father!"

Veronica "Do you remember where the bus stop is?"

Marshall "Yea."

Veronica "Good. Gritford isn't within walking distance! It's nice of your friend to let you stay with them."

Marshall "Sound pals, we. Got each other covered."

Veronica "Oh, not that door. The road is in the other direction."

Marshall "Uhh... just, eh, wonderin' how the lake looks."

Veronica "In that case, follow the shoreline to the right. There's a path that leads from the lighthouse to the road."

Marshall "Cheers, ma'am."

Veronica "What do you think of him?"

Troy "Something feels off. Are you sure he really knows Paloma...?"

Veronica "I'm a doctor, love, it's my job to evaluate people. He seems sincere! But I'm planning to call Paloma tomorrow."

Troy "...Good."

Veronica "Troy... he's an elf with black hair and pale skin. Do you think your father could've-"

Troy "He's too young."

Veronica "Certainly so for a sibling! But how about a nephew?"

Troy "I... don't think that's possible. Besides, aren't you, uh... a little trusting, my queen? We know nothing of him. Those tattoos-"

Veronica "Can be a stylistic choice, since you're right, dear. We don't know."

Troy ". . ."

Veronica "Oh, I understand it's a hard topic for you. Let's drop this for now. I'm sure talking with Paloma will shed more light on the matter."

Alicia *humming*

Veronica "Good morning. Lovely weather to walk to the clinic, isn't it?"

Alicia "Oh... today's that day. I thought I'd get to finish these seams! But I guess I promised to come..."

Veronica "That you did. I'll look in the mirror and dress; I'd suggest you do the same. The first appointment is in an hour."

Veronica "Good timing, love, we were just about to leave. Though I'm sure Mars would've managed alone, too."

Troy "Hmh... yes. Fortunate that I made it in time."

Veronica "Oh, just a little heads up would've been nice . . . I get completely that you forgot, darling. No matter! Any friend of yours is always welcome here, of course."

Veronica "Which includes that mysterious girlfriend of yours, I might add. There must be some chance for a visit before the next summer's break-"

Marshall "Lots of, uh... fresh fish you've got here, sir. Proper good food, innit?"

Troy "Indeed. I didn't realize you like fish."

Marshall "Fried fish used to be my fave! Venn often got us some on weekends, eh, garlic mayo, too. Simple yet delish."

Troy "I recommend taking a look at that bass, then; its meat holds up well in a pan. Suits for deep-frying too-"

Alicia "...Dad. Why is there a hobo sleeping on the couch?"

Troy "Your mother invited him."

Alicia "Ah. Of course she did."

Marshall "So I'll swing back, eh, like this? Uh, woah...!"

Troy "You should've considered the boat behind you. The hook gets stuck easily."

Marshall "...Say less."

Marshall "Proper big lighthouse, that. D'ya own it, too?"

Troy "Hm, no. It's the county's property, though the door is locked, and I haven't seen anyone enter during my lifetime. But the lantern works, so I suppose there hasn't been any need for maintenance."

Marshall "Gotcha... funny that it ain't burning out. A bit creepy, innit?"

Troy "The fog at the lake gets thick; the lighthouse has always guided me back to the pier safely. If there's something magical inside those worn walls, it has guarded me well."

Troy "I take you're done with fishing-"

Marshall "Nah, ain't quittin' yet. I'll mind the boat."

Marshall "So, um... hard, innit? Fishin', and that."

Troy "For a novice, perhaps; I could throw a snare in my sleep. I first held a rod when I was barely tall enough to thread the line."

Marshall "That young, eh? Did your family live by fishin', too?"

Troy "My father was... a businessman in another field. There was an old lady next door who knew the lake better than anyone. She taught me."

Marshall "'twas nice of her. I've never been fishin' myself. Ain't many lakes 'round where I come from, eh, nor cash to buy rods and stuff."

Troy "Hmh... if you want to try, there are old spare rods on the boat."

Marshall "Ya bet I do. Cheers, sir!"

Troy "Be careful with the hook. Those rusty ones make the nastiest wounds."

Marshall "Don't fret, I've got this. Ain't nothin' compared to stuff you gotta avoid in dumpsters—"

Marshall —oof! Bloke wasn't kiddin'. An ugly cut, that... shite, it bleeds. Can't get light-headed, now...
