I hope you like it. I had a lot of fun writing it.

Now I know what I've found
Another day, another 5 million fucking emails. At least that’s what it felt like. Pete wanted to slam his head down into his desk for what felt like the 3rd time today and he’d only been working for an hour. Most of the time he loved his job but with a high-profile job came high-profile clients with ridiculous demands.
He glanced out of his office window into the hall, grinning slightly as he saw Arm on the phone in his own office, his brow pinched in frustration, looking very close to throwing his phone, and maybe also his laptop out the window. As usual, Pete was unbelievably glad he wasn’t one of the top business consultants at the firm.

You'd think a vampire wouldn't care about mold, but considering how eagerly Art keeps scrubbing it away, maybe exposure to the spores makes human blood taste all funky.
Now THIS is something I didn't see coming. Art has been crying at Jodelyn's grave every hour of the day, but apparently Imani isn't turned off by that.
Art does have a certain charm to him. At times it feels like this challenge is focused on him, not Edith.
With sweat, blood and tears (especially the sweat) Edith managed to pay asylum's bills and even had 300§ to spare.
Perhaps getting closer with Imani was hitting Art harder than we expected. Crying in bed immediately after what was barely a one-time-flirt would suggest so.
The water must be refreshing...
And here's another type of refreshing beverage, broken fridge juice.
Edith is the only one taking care of the garden. Other patients prefer basketball or swimming as their outdoor activities.
Nothing can stop Art from going outside during the day. Not even trash
I really thought Atticus and Finley would get along, that they'd vibe together. They've effectively proven me wrong.
Oh well, no time to sulk. Work awaits!
Another patient to dip their toes in the murder pool...
It's nice that Atticus has started cooking while Edith's at work.
After work Edith finally had time to fix the fridge. No more fridge juice.
Surprisingly Finley wasn't squished flat by the meteor.
Girl, you're weird. I'm not taking my patients to look at your horse.
The murder pool continues to attract possible victims.
Nothing even happened and now you guys hate each other too?
Okay girl, come on over. Maybe we can flirt a little.
Art was not impressed by Michael.
You're MARRIED? We found him on the dating app, cheating bastard.
We were able to sell one more painting, but every painting after that was unlistable because it had been 'ruined by water', who knows how. So we'll just have to hang this beautiful artwork on our walls.
It was nice to see Peyton comforting Imani for once, instead trying to throw drinks in her face. Maybe they'll become friends after all.

Honestly, I feel like Art and Jodelyn belong together and I might play with them (and resurrect Jodelyn) after Edith finishes our challenge.
Sometimes all the beds are taken, so the best you can do is the couch. The worst you could do would be sleeping on the floor, so luckily Edith hasn't yet had to resort to that.
Looting luck hasn't really been on our side after the first night.
Art seriously has a thing for Jodelyn... She's the only one he's been drinking out of.
ALRIGHT BURNING OFF THE MOULD ISN'T THE WAY TO GO DULY NOTED
WHY ARE YOU ALL PACKING IN HERE GET OUT... Oh... The possibilities of letting a guest, engulfed in flames, to be the first to decease.
Just kidding... Heroically Edith saved the day.
Good heavens Art, GO INSIDE.
Imani's personality was definitely starting to come out more as the week progressed.
Trying to keep up with everyone else breaking things was kind off starting to get on Edith's nerves.
At least, Peyton had become a true mould remover expert, so Edith didn't have to set the place on fire anymore.
Jodelyn was starting to look a little pale... Maybe Art should try someone else for a change.
Or Art can just be taken by aliens, sure.
I guess Imani was really becoming more comfortable, especially around Art, for some unexplainable reason.
Stinking our way to success little by little. One piece of loot, painting and work shift at a time.
EXCUSE ME?
Uh oh... The only one who could save her is at work.
Oh thank goodness! Edith came back just on time to plead for Jodelyn's life.
No luck. And right at the end of our first week. Almost made it out with 0 deaths.
What a better way to honor Jodelyn's passing, than taking a dip in the pool that took her life. And to contract an illness.

Edith snuck out again, but this time her loot was much more scanty. Good thing she got that promotion.
I nap, you nap, everybody nap!
This spot behind the kitchen was becoming very popular. Multiple patients chose to go over there just to talk to themselves.
Ah, if only there was some place very close by where to relieve yourself...
Maybe Art was feeling guilty about using Jodelyn's good nature in such a way after all. At least he went under the covers to bawl his eyes out.
Even with all the beds free, sometimes you have to take a quick passing out on your way to the bedroom.
Sunshine Sanctuary finally had enough money for patients to try out new hobbies like cross-stitch. However, giving needles to health-limited inpatients is maybe a questionable choice...
Jodelyn didn't seem to be bothered by the gaping holes on her neck.
Peyton and Imani we're the first to clearly not get along. Peyton was definitely the aggressor and she was taking her frustration out on Imani by trying to throw a drink in her face multiple times.
Don't you go retching at human food, blood-sucker.
Peyton might not be great with other people, but she's great at cleaning off mold.
I'm surprised there have been no casualties so far. I was especially betting on Art turning to ash on the first day. He's really testing fate though.
Edith isn't exactly looking for love, but some outside influence could be healthy. We found some potential... flings? Friends? On the dating app but first, work awaits. She was promoted to Caterer.
Why drink from multiple sources when you can drink from one, I guess.
Edith hadn't even talked to her yet, but sure girl. Come on over. The more sims and the less beds the merrier.
The way my heart was pounding and my fingers were crossed. Atticus had watched the cooking channel with Edith and it definitely paid of. We're still fire-free.
With no time to waste, Edith immediately started honing in on those cooking skills. She found a job as an Assistant Dishwasher, but before her first shift she's gonna have to find other means of making money. The 100§ in her pocket won't keep the Sanctuary afloat for long.
Everything about the pool screams "DO NOT SWIM", but our neat freak Peyton was the very first to take a plunge. Jodelyn's musical talents were met with... a variety of reactions.
During daytime our best chance to make money might be in painting. Although, the moldy whiff of the Sanctuary emanating from the artworks might reduce their price.
Edith went to bed EARLY to ensure she had a place to sleep. Unfortunately, some of the patients decided that was the best time to have a chitchat in the bedroom with all the lights on.
The patients were mostly having a good time, especially considering the circumstances. Except for Peyton, who seemed to be irritated or angry most of the time.
Atticus was the second to take wee dip in the brewing health hazard.
Edith snuck out during 12am and 5am, to look for anything worth selling. The first night's loot was surprisingly lucrative.
Maybe some flowers will make the Sunshine Sanctuary feel less depressing. Or at least Edith will have something fresh to use in her cooking.
The constant energy failures have begun. Finley has much preferred sleeping in the dining chair so far.
Patients don't have to worry about food when Edith is around. She keeps the fridge fully stocked by practicing recipes.
Edith was finally able to leave the Sanctuary (with permission) and go to work for the first time. She came back with a promotion to Head Dishwasher.
Surprisingly, Jodelyn was getting along with Art very well. She even managed to cheer him up from his eternal sulking.
We love a domestic queen.
Successfully sold our second painting. This time, no complaints about the smell, so things are looking up.
Art seems to have a death wish, because WHY would you go out in the sun, when you're a literal VAMPIRE. However, Jodelyn definitely left a lasting impression on him.
Finley has upgraded from sleeping in the chair to completely crashing out on the floor.
Sunshine Sanctuary now has an alligator and mold. What more could you ask for?
Shari barely touched the telescope and was immediately abducted. Interestingly, Atticus was acting like they were seeing none of it. Was it planned or just a coincidence?
Atticus Hu LOVES humans. So much so, that their lovebug tendencies have sometimes gone to downright stalking. Being a bright green alien doesn't exactly help them to stay discreet. Honestly, the faculty didn't really know what to do with them, since they've never encountered anything alike. In Sunshine Sanctuary their love will at least be confined to a certain very well fenced area.
