"Being pregnant is actually a great way to meet new people, because everybody thinks your belly is their business."

Udo moves into Dawn's old room, reflecting on how to redecorate in a more sober and masculine way.

"Now you call me at once if anything - happens." "We sure will, Mama Alli, don't worry!"

Udo gets up early before school to take care of the dogs. Abbey is showing her age more and more - he's afraid she won't be around much longer.

"Now, if we can get you both cleaned before anybody else gets up, I may be able to wash the wet dog smell off before school."

StrangeSpot, Round Thirty Three: Knowe

Sara's pregnancy progresses while she and Dewey try to move forward from the loss of Hugh...

...And that's the end of round thirty three! Next round is the result of a spur-of-the-moment decision, but, hear me out:

Thirty in-game day time-skip, and mostly everyone who passed away during that time got to live their remaining days in peace completely unbothered by chaos and destruction caused by me, and everyone else has fled Strangetown through a magical hole in the ground to a new neighbourhood.

I had to double check Sofie wasn’t a clone of Teo, because they look so similar! But they have different starsigns/personalities, so...

As it turns out, the new first house in Widespot is the manufactured home where Ida Juana and Hugh’s family live! They got evicted from their rental on Domestic Drive, which was too small anyhow. Hugh is working in a fast food restaurant now and Widespot is a shorter ride and has a lower cost of living.

"Oh, I'm so glad you could come over. Do you have a due date?" "Any second now, I guess."

"So, d'you hear the one about the ladybug and the gentleman burgler?"

Dawn had considered having an off-to-college party, or asking Wallys out - but Mom'd be upset with her if she was gone on Green's birthday. Summer's almost over - better cook out while she can.

Green was tired and put himself to bed when Dun left. When he wakes up, a story seems like a better use of the remaining time than learning things.

Knowe, Dun & Alli

Allie's getting better at videogames with so many people on hand to test herself against.

"Hiyo Siller!" "Enjoy that while you can, kid. You'll be too big for it soon."

"We got stuff to do today! I have to work but until then I want to be with my birthday boy."

"Okay, one foot in front of the other -"

"I'd make Udo do this after school, but Abbey'll probably be asleep on it again."

"Isn't it so exciting that Ida Juana's pregnant?" "Sure thing, Mom." "You and Cliff will be great uncles."
