Crow: CAW!! Phee: “Crow! My heart just clipped through my ribs! Warn me before you go full jump scare!”

Phee: “…Really? So who knocked it over—ghost, draft, or my Bad Luck moodlet?” Crow (vibes only): I told you, mortal.

“Ah, ótimo. Que bom que vocês estão aqui para presenciar a maior bronca de todos os tempos…”

And her peculiar mannerisms…

And while she was still irritating, still a challenge at times, she was also strangely endearing.

‘We’ll stop here for today,’ he said, rising from the silk sofa in the state room. The scent of sea salt emanating from Melody followed him as he stood, sending an unsolicited tingle through his body. 

He peered down at her sitting poised, in her long turquoise dress peppered with white flowers. She stared back, a glint in her shimmering eyes. ‘Now that I understand the proper function of a toothbrush, I declare this lesson a success.’

Diego laughed. ‘You’re getting there,’ he said. ‘Just try not to lose focus.’

‘How do you mean?’ enquired Melody. ‘You tell me to focus on you, so I do. Perhaps if you were a little more specific as to which parts of you, I’m supposed to focus on.’

‘My words, Your Majesty.’

‘Please, call me Melody.’ 

‘Melody,’ said Diego, his tone softer than he expected. 

He gazed at her dolphin-shaped nose, how it defined her face like the centrepiece of a masterpiece. 

‘We continue lessons tomorrow,’ he muttered, somewhat flustered.

‘Looking forward to it.’

And with that, Diego left, confusion building inside him. She, the Queen of Simsland, wanted him to call her by her first name. Sure, he’d called her Melody before – mostly to snap at her. But this was different. She had asked him to. What did that mean?

Perhaps she saw him as a friend. She probably didn’t have many of those. An ache settled in his chest. No wonder Miguel understood her in a way he didn’t. 

His phone buzzed, and he checked it, rolling his eyes at The Simsland Times notification on the screen. He clicked into the article as he headed back to his private quarters, scanning his eyes over the headline.

He paused in his tracks, heart pounding. 

A MOMENT LATER...

‘What is the meaning of this?’ snapped Diego as he stormed towards the state room where Melody was just leaving.

‘What is the meaning of what?’ she asked.

‘You’re shutting down the Human Sciences!’

Melody frowned. ‘What are you talking about?’

‘It’s in the Simsland Times.’

‘It may be, but I still don’t know what you’re talking about.’ Melody folded her arms, annoyance spreading across her face.

Diego opened his mouth to toss her a sharp accusation, when he recalled Her Majesty’s words during their first dag-mál together.

‘You really are clueless aren’t you,’ he said, with exasperation. Then spun on his heels and began striding away.

‘Where are you going?’ Melody called after him.

‘To find someone who actually knows what’s going on in this palace.’

They met as kids online and became important to each other before they even knew who stood on the other side of the screen. They lost each other, found each other and spent years unknowingly circling back.

Because that's what soulmates do. They get lost or take the long road. But against all logic, they still end up together.

And now after all those years and all the distance, Valerio and Gabriela are finally here... together, exactly where they were always meant to be, promising forever… 🤍

“O evento era algum tipo de encontro com vários figurões da política... como era o nome mesmo? Ah, tanto faz, eu não lembro. Mas a Cherry estava super nervosa porque era o primeiro evento dela como representante de San Myshuno. Tinha uma área pros adultos e outra pras crianças, graças a Deus. Imagina ficar ouvindo político falar a noite inteira? Tô fora."

"Como o homem da família, eu cuidei do networking.”

Forest: Boa noite, eu sou o Forest Herr e a minha m... Cherry é a Presidente de San Myshuno. Nicholas: Você fala engraçado haha. Eu sou o Nicholas Vretos. Meu pai é o Presidente de Tartosa.

“Eu também fiz amizade com a Alicia, mas eu já conhecia ela meio que de antes... ela é filha do Louis. Durante a campanha da Cherry, o Louis voltou pra cidade natal dele e também entrou para a política. Agora ele representa Windenburg. Se a Cherry ficou chocada com a notícia da Alicia, imagina eu!”

“Como vocês podem imaginar... os adultos tinham MUITA coisa pra conversar... Logo todas as crianças já estavam distraídas brincando..."

"Eu já tinha brincado de tudo... já tinha comido... Eu estava entediado pra carambaaaa.”

Forest: O meu sofrimento... ele nunca acaba. Essa é a minha vida agora. ???: Esse é o seu primeiro evento político, né? Forest: Deu tão na cara assim? Eu não consegui me apresentar antes. Eu sou o Forest. ???: Sayuri. Forest: Você gosta bastante de conversar, né. Sayuri: Só com quem eu conheço. Forest: Ah, entendi. Você é daqui, né? Não tem nada melhor pra gente fazer? Sayuri: Nós estamos na parte de baixo, certo? Acho que tem um parquinho aqui perto. Forest: ISSO É PERFEITO! Você vai levar a gente até lá, Sayu. E assim, vai virar a grande heroína da noite! Sayuri: Desculpa? Acho que eu não entendi. Forest: Você disse que é perto. Ninguém vai sentir nossa falta. A gente vai rapidinho e volta. Vamos, vive um pouco! Sayuri: Otōsan me mataria se eu fizesse isso. Você entendeu errado. Eu não posso fazer isso.

“Mas eu já tinha parado de ouvir. Aquela seria a melhor missão de fuga de todas. Um plano incrível já estava se formando na minha cabeça.”

Sayuri: Por que eu fui falar justamente com o garoto mais estranho daqui...? Forest: Vamos, Sayu, vamos chamar os outros.

So as you can see in these pictures, we see a lot of Mags circle talking with Eliana, basically pulling her out of the road she was going down, the whole onlyfans thing. This episode ends with Magdalena finally looking through a new house, a mansion in the hills like she always dreamed, and of course Yesenia and Eliana come along.

Santa is brought along too because the thing with Santa and Mags was about her continuing the cycle. Her mother (as we have seen) was hard on her and she planned on being harder on Santa. Whether Santa would have followed that path, who knows, because she did have Fernanda as her godmother...

And speaking of Fernanda, this is also the start of Fernanda sort of being iced out of the friend group, since Yessie gets Eliana's ear and Eliana starts to hang out with Yessie moreso than anyone else. Yessie even starts trying to play cupid for her as well...
