I can often recognize my own cats. I like that the cats got such different personalities. Fiona belongs to one of the naughty ones. :lol: Tusnelda and Martin are definitely taking some liberties in Flora's backyard that are not quite right :oops:]]> In reply to SnuffyBucket.

I definitely have some metal music tunes I love and I keep coming back to. I like the span between the raw expression and the melodic gentle. This is one of them and if I find an excuse to share some of my other favorites I’ll save some in the back of my hand ❤

Is there anything that is not improved by metal music, however soft? 😀
The cat spam was brilliant, I particularly liked the one where Fiona is eating the burgers and looking up like ‘so what?’ – reminds me so much of my own cat.

Oof, I can sympathise with Flora. I enjoy having people visit and visiting people, but if my friend and her entourage turned up at my house, unannounced, and starting -ahem- fumbling in my backyard, I’d probably be pretty pissed off too. XD

I’m glad you enjoyed the chapter ❤

Holidays are for most people about relaxing, gearing down and recharging their batteries. Tusnelda and Martin benefit from prioritizing their relationship without the interruptions of everyday life. Tusnelda and Flora have so many common interests, but since Martin has moved in with Tusnelda, she never comes by as she did in Forgotten Hollow. Maybe you are right she's a little hurt. I love watching the cats on this holiday. They have quite different personalities, so I think EA has done a great job when it comes to pets in the game. Thank you for your comment ❤]]> In reply to Yimiki.

I’m so glad you told me about the symbolism of Tusnelda’s short hair. Strangely enough, it is not a conscious action on my part, but sometimes I think my subconscious is far ahead of me when I tell stories.
It seems so obvious now ❤

A fresh start. She really does seem to have changed massively almost overnight, to Martin’s great joy. A trip to Granite Falls will do them both good. When is the last time that they went on vacation together? It’s so easy to drift apart, even when you live together every day.

I don’t mind the cat spam at all =(

Oooh the laser pointer turns into a heart if your sim is in a flirty mood? I didn’t know that! That’s a neat little detail. Does it turn into a tiny fire if the sim is angry?

Hahaha Martin hates the fruit based meals so much XD he’s a meat man, it seems, though he’s kind to not complain to Tusnelda. She did go through the trouble of cooking for him, after all.

Awww I love that Tusnelda is finally reaching out to Flora again. They were such good friends but Tusnelda’s ambitions and things progressing with Martin put her on the backburner for a long time. It’s good that Tusnelda is rekindling relationships again. Aw, and it seems Flora is still a little hurt when she’s confronted with Tusnelda and Martin’s relationship. I have to give her a lot of credit for just allowing them to stay over for a while, too. I very much value my space as well and if I’d have people just randomly come over to stay, without me knowing about it in advance, I’d be pissed off. Even if they were very good friends.

Fiona is such a bad-mannered cat in this chapter XD

I don’t think this chapter was boring at all. It was a slow chapter where Tusnelda and Martin got a moment to really just focus on each other and rekindle their relationship. Plus, cats are always fun to follow around =D
