When Miss Blaise found herself out of work, she also found herself at the mercy of her former lover, factory owner Mr Cullen. When her attempt at leveraging herself a well-paying position at his factory by bringing up their past went awry, she knew that it was time to leave the countryside behind and try her luck in the city.

Down by the river, far away from the quiet hamlet of Angler’s Cove, lies a small factory. In there, the less fortunate Sims of the area try to make a meagre living by working for the local business mogul. Work is hard and the environment harsh. Mr Cullen can be an unforgiving boss, making the workers pay for every small mistake they make. Your best bet is keeping your head down and hoping that- for once- you won’t be the one to fall on his bad side.

End of the year tag! I got tagged by *takes deep breath* @stellaterrano , @lilibethsonar and @holleyberry . Thanks for tagging me!

Rules: Find your fave pics of your story, your CC, or your blog in general and post in a collage! It can be 1 picture or 100– When you’re done tag 5 people or more~! 

I limited myself to 10 pictures. These are some of my favourites (not all of them, a post with all of them would probably crash tumblr’s servers). Some of them are sad, some of them are cheerful, some show the very beginnings of Middleground, others are more recent, some show bad life choices and one isn’t even a picture of Middleground (can you believe it? This year, I actually played Strangetown- which is on hiatus, not discontinued-, did some storytelling- most of which still sits in my drafts folder… whoops!-, played a little neighbourhood just for myself, tried my hands at a selfmade ‘challenge’- resurrecting the Tricous-, and then, of course, started Middleground. Next year, I -I’ll probably go on a short hiatus in February because *drumroll* I’ll finally be teaching real students for a bit, yay! (for everyone that’s like “huh, wasn’t she a die-hard drama major?”- I switched majors in 2016/17 as I figured out what my priorities in life are). But I will continue to keep you updated on Middleground, as that neighbourhood has become quite dear to me.

I’m so late to the party, it’s not even funny. So, I’m not gonna tag anyone, sorry.
