Pao… please, just… why are you tormenting me like this?

Kaylynn wanted to know about the things she heard about Joe and he actually pulls himself together an confesses about what may have gone wrong in the past. It went surprisingly well?

Huh.
While Brandon paints (that painting there is definitely inspired by the lake), Joe invites over Kaylynn for a date.

HONEY, NO!

…
Over breakfast, Joe tells Brandon that he is quite positive that there is a promotion coming in his near future (which will have to wait, though. He has the weekend + Fridays off).
At least she has the courtesy to leave a flower bouquet for laughing at Brandon’s pictures…
Is there actually a mod or something that makes overnight guests actually sleep? Mine only run around laughing at their host’s taste in pictures and decorations before heading home in the wee-est hours of morning… Who thought that programming that was a good idea (and now I desperately want to know what kind of guest they are. I think we can safely exclude ‘a good one’.)
And now for something sweet: Brandon and Sandy have a nice little date.

They have one of the sweetest, most functional relationships in my game.


Bonus date wish panels… (Now, if one of them would only roll for a want to get engaged… YOU BOTH WANT TO MARRY EACH OTHER! MAKE THE FIRST STEP!)
Joe is having yet another existential crises (no but seriously, Joe easily takes second place- right behind Christy- for unhappiest Sim. He’s always struck me as the melancholic, ‘I-don’t-deserve-happiness’ type of Sim.). And he hasn’t heard about all the stuff that has gone down behind his back today yet…
When Brandon arrives at home, someone is waiting for him. She tells him her name is Kaylynn, that she is ‘Joe’s new girl’ and that she would like to know what he and Komei were talking about up by the lake (Brandon wonders if she followed him home). He tells Kaylynn everything he knows, how he dumped pregnant Christy Stratton, now Harris, when she asked him to marry her, how he cheated on Komei just weeks before their wedding and then completely fucked up when he wanted sole custody of the child he never cared about. Kaylynn listens to him, but he isn’t too sure if she actually believes him. She eventually heads home with a strange look on her face.

Relationships can be weird, Brandon muses. Some don’t pursue any kind of romantic relationships, some screw themselves over and over again, and some find themselves in committed relationships even though they never thought they’d be that kind of Sim.
That is one bold burglar.
