#springhaven bacc

With the weekend here and all her homework done, Harmony has plenty of time to listen to music and jam out. Her mom even joins her!

Sebastian: "You're definitely our daughter, Birdie." Harmony: "You had doubts?" Sebastian: "Not like that. You're so much like your mom and I."

Harmony: "Uh, yeah. You guys are actually cool. You gonna teach me to play guitar one of these days?" Sebastian: "Aren't drums more your style?" Harmony: "I wanna be multi-talented. Maybe even learn magic like mom and Joy? Dunno yet."

The wolf she's befriended walked by again and this time she was able to adopt him - fulfilling their big dog challenge! Welcome to the family, Pooka!

Annette actually comes home right as Harmony is blowing out the candles on her birthday cake. She does so having reached the very top of the Politics career! She's the first sim in town to top their career! This unlocks the ability to finance a downtown...and 1 position in the Journalism career! That's very good news for Kiara.

When he's not making toys or tending the garden, Elijah writes restaurant guides. They're a bit low on funds after the move.

Leo is still adjusting to school...

He even takes an interest in Inigo's easel! Still haven't revealed his OTH though.

Elijah has another hiking want - maybe he can invite Leo and see if it's nature?

🌸 Springhaven’s Year 1 Spring Summary 🌸

Erika: "I hope I'm not a disappointment of a first date..."

Kiara: "Not at all. You put yourself down too much, Erika. You're a great conversation partner and a beautiful woman."

Erika: "Oh, I...That's so sweet of you to say. I'm glad I could be your first date. You're, um, my first date too. First...everything, really. Does that bother you?"

Kiara: "I'd consider myself lucky, actually. You must have been nervous but you still flirted with me. I admire that."

Erika: "Ahaha...I happen to know from experience that other women don't usually pick up on me liking them unless I'm direct..."

The two lovebirds head outside to cuddle under the stars. Erika is surprisingly knowledgeable about astronomy - an interest they have in common.

I guess it's tiny to dip into Kiara's funds for a double bed...Erika's staying over tonight. Even though it's almost sunrise when they go to bed, one thing leads to another...

The two have lunch together and then it happens - the autonomous flirt! Kiara looks thrilled about it.

It's just a kiss to the back of Kiara's hand but both girls immediately get crushes on each other from it. 3 bolt romance is no joke!

Erika: "I, um...I don't know what came over me there. I...I hope that wasn't too forward or anything. I just, I thought...You're really beautiful."

Kiara: "You're the first person to say that to me."

Erika: "No way! Who wouldn't notice how pretty you look when you smile? Or the way your eyes light up when you laugh? You even have a cute little mole! That...That wasn't creepy, was it? Sorry. I'm new to this flirting thing."

Kiara: "Has anyone ever told you that you're cute when you're nervous?"

Erika: "Oh...! You think so?"

Maybe the next day will be better. As she heads outside for the morning paper, Kiara shows attraction to a townie passing by. Upon further inspection...they have 3 bolts.

She needs something good in her life, damnit! I'm inviting this girl to come in and whatever happens, happens.

Her name turns out to be Erika Sawyer.

Kiara: "I moved here from SimCity. Quite a busy place, seemingly bursting with life...Though a bit too fast-paced for me. I like things quieter."

Erika: "Oh, me too. I've always taken to the great outdoors so Springhaven is perfect for me. It just feels so...natural, if you know what I mean?"

Kiara: "I believe I do. More authentic?"

Erika: "Yes, absolutely. Everything feels more real. The people, the scenery, the atmosphere, just...everything."

She's definitely more forward than Kiara.

Erika: "You've seemed pretty tense since I first saw you. I know a great technique for that if you're interested? I'd just have to put some pressure on your back."

Kiara: "I could really use that right now, actually."
