Coby and Mia (via @treason-and-plot)

I'm starting to wonder who this French guy Coby's ex is dating. I have a hunch, but I'm not sure. Or it may be just my repetitive-plotlined-soap opera/drama-infected/triggered mind talking and thinking crap xD :|
I know this was addressed to Pru, but the answer is no mystery, and the French guy is not actually French, but Belgian. (Coby is not so good with the European countries and keeping them straight. And referring to him constantly as ‘the French guy’ is a not-so-subtle dig at him.) Like Coby, Rainier is one of the characters in my story, and Coby was just referring to events in his life that are going on over here.
Justin and Eleanor:

Someone's been working on their communication skills 😊
<3 all three of you.
I think Justin’s greatest strength is his ability to read a situation and adapt to it. He saw that Eleanor needed more from him, and he delivered, even though it wasn’t easy for him.

Yeah okay Adele. Go sing your Siren's song to someone else!
Ha, I loved this comment! You certainly got your finger on Astrid’s pulse.

Ooh it's getting good!
<3 You are now the only person that I know of who has been with me reading my silliness since Sims 1. You are a true champion!

Ah I love the smell of grease paint. And hard-faced bitch.
@ninjaofthepurplethings did such an amazing job with these Sims. She got that awesome resting bitch face down perfectly for Astrid.
Heather’s troubles:

Time for Heather to move house I think :'(
Yeah, that may come up in the story, and it will be very sad for her. The house was her grandmother’s, and Heather has a lot of treasured memories there. But unfortunately, the memory of shooting her ex there is the one memory she can’t escape.
There’s also a bunch of real world type issues I have to think about for take that on, to decide if I even want to address them. A ‘murder house’ often has difficulties selling, or has to drop in price to sell, and Heather would also lose the Prop 13 tax protections (A strictly CA property owner’s issue that is probably too boring and obscure to bring into a Sims story blog, lol) meaning she’d be paying a much higher property tax on any new property she bought than she does here. And she currently is not paying a mortgage as this house is long paid off. Also, she doesn’t have a real job at the moment, so the chance of getting a bank loan is probably nil. So, she might just be stuck where she is, or have to rent. Which would suck.

Damn, her mental health is suffering so much (understandably so). Difficult to know how to help when she can't exactly talk to a professional about it...
Yeah, Heather’s mental health has been taking a lot of hits. She was definitely suffering some untreated PTSD after the attack and robbery in her dispensary, and that mental state is what caused her to shoot Desmond when he came to her house after he got out of jail, which in turn has really messed with her head even further. She is going to therapy sessions, but you are right, she can’t really talk about killing her ex, because Ulises officially took responsibility for that, so the therapy can’t really get to the heart of the issue. Though hopefully it will help at least a little.
