Claire often has visitors over who wish to dicuss various topics. Dean fears he might not be qualified enough to get electricity up, Ava misses the buzzing sounds of the big city and Sethunya? Sethunya is housing with Nora and Abel and none of them can cook. She often flees the house around dinnertime and invites herself over at Claire’s. Claire doesn’t mind the company, though. If only Sethunya’s tablemanners were a bit better.

Life at the settlement is rather peaceful. The spring is unusually warm and the days already get longer.
Right now, there is not much to do for Claire apart from reporting back to the sponsors and supervising the mechanics’ attempts to get electricity and water up and running.
Claire and Ava discover that they went to the same college.
The meeting quickly escalates into some sort of speed dating.

Oh! Hi there.
Oh dear…
1. My impending freedom. Only one more week of college and then I’m free for 3 whole months… whoo!
2. My dogs. Couldn’t live without them.
3. This may sound kind of weird, but I’ve got a new found sense for fashion. Kind of. I enjoy dressing up lately.
4. My family. We’ve been through hard times over the past year and I think we get along better than before.
5. Finally having some sort of fully wired brain. Puberty was horrible. Crying over burnt toast and destroyed Christmas ball ornaments. I’m not kidding you.
Wow, that was random and kind of personal. But hey, sometimes you need to dig deeper to cheer you up on a grey day like this.
Finally settled after a long trek into the wilderness of the Greater Three Lakes Area, the settlers celebrate.
Claire took a course about leadership and group dynamics back in high school- she was a girl scout because of course she was- and insisted on dragging the goddamn Myshuno machine with them for a little game.
Back where I’m from, you would call this “Gruppenbildende Aktivitäten”. XD
Oh, and the settlers managed to agree on a name for the little settlement. Ladies and gentleman, meet “Foxham”.
Bonus-picture.
Sethunga Cooper is an artist at heart but found herself working as an architect soon after college to pay the bills. When the adventure-seeking young woman read about the settlement, she didn’t hesistate a second. Maybe she can finally find the inspiration she needs to make it big (and build a house or two.
Born and raised in the rural parts of SimNation, Nora Hall had always been a farmer. After losing her parents’ farm in a dreadful storm, she took up the offer to work as an agriculturalist for the small settlement.
Abel Knight tagged along because he was broke and needed a place to sleep. A rather erractic fellow, he considers working as a farm help or something. He’ll figure it out.
(You can find Sethunga as Sethunya (whoops!) at volestes’ livejournal, as well as Nora. Abel is- again- by olivespecter. I might or might not have almost every single sim of her in my game.
Cronus Kennedy is a self-proclaimed “ladies-man”. He went into medicine to impress “simple-minded chicks”. Turns out it wasn’t like in these movies. After a horrible incident caused by his inflated ego, he lost his license and might have had to face prison, if it had not been for his hospital and the city council wanting to avoid unwanted publicity. They offered him to join the settlement as an emergency technician. He thinks it’s a serious downstep from the luxury life at a physician, but everything is better than prison…
This guy is way too full of himself! Unfortunatly, Andrew Keel is stuck with him for now. A rather serious businessman, Andrew was born into a wealty family but tagged along to make his own name (and fortune). He’s quite good with numbers qand everything that has to do with economics, and it’s foreseeable he might need to help out Claire in the near future.
(A non-alien (and much nicer) Cronus can be found at volestes’ livejournal, and a brown-haired Andrew (A.J.) Keel at olivespecters’ tumblr)
Ava Torres. A name known by many. A famous and beloved actress until a scandal made her retire and leave showbiz forever, Ava isn’t only a nice-looking, but also a smart head. With a degree in Physics, Ava is determinded to show the world that just because she was a “showbiz kitten” it doesn’t mean she is also dizzy.
Dean Owens is a fun loving, but thoroughly guy. He recently got a degree in engineering and plans on helping our the settlers with all stuff technical. Dean signed up after he found a flyer in the lab one day after college. He might not be the best or the brightest, but hey, he got the job, and that’s fine with him.
