#balmiea

After work Vi headed out to Krag's bar. Something felt different this time. Usually after a one night stand she'd never think twice about the person, but weirdly Vinnie had been on her mind all day.

She hadn't heard from him, or Val. She hoped that she hadn't ruined her friendship with Val, but is that really what she was worried about?

'Watcher, I really hate feelings.'

A statement from The Balmiea Gazette, by Iggy Barnett:

'Not only can we get the freshest of produce at Baz' farmers market, but now we can find it at Elmsly's Groceries! You may ask - why do we need two places to buy food at? Well, dear readers, with this grocery store comes a new feature of home delivery! If you're feelin' lazy, give Baz a call and he'll get his drivers to drop it off right to your door!

(Baz is now hiring for drivers, swing by Elmsly's Groceries to inquire.)'

Seasonal Gardens - Spring

A while had passed and Lyra hadn't heard from Jordan. She wasn't one to usually care but, she missed her.

They arranged to see each other tonight.

'Marry me, Marg.'

'huh?!-‘

'I know we just made things official but, marry me.'

'Oh, Emmett!!'

Season 2 - Summer Walker Household

We're back with our bookworm, Margot for Summer! She's not usually one for dresses but it's been so hot out that the thought of jeans makes her cringe.

She hasn't been able to stop thinking about the lovely gesture that Emmett did for her in spring. No one has ever set up a picnic for her - not even when she was alive, so she's determined to do something special for him in return.
