For Oliver's LTW, I decided he would max out the sculpting and inventing skills. He started his first sculpture in clay.

When he finished with the first skill point, I sent him to join the sculptor career.

I had Brandon join the culinary career now. He did not get promoted at the end of his shift, but since he had maxed cooking, I gave him an honorary degree in Fine Arts. Uploading his resume made him start at level 3 in the career, so when he gets promoted, he'll be level 4. He currently has a Midlife Crisis going on, and one of his locked wishes is to change jobs. Being a fairy, this moodlet lasts weeks instead of days. I'm hoping I might be able to get him to reach the top, then switch careers before the crisis ends but I'm not sure.

Jacob had really been slacking on his martial arts skill. He had been excited to start the skill when Brandon started to teach him, but life got in the way. Now was the best time for him to start up again. In the process, he also gained another athletic skill point.

When Oliver had decided to stop working for the day, he went to spend time with Melonie. They couldn't get romantic, so instead, Oliver told her all about how a random Sim had stopped the burglar.

Back at home, Oliver decided to start learning the inventing skill. A lot of his wishes are for it and sculpting now, so I've been trying to rack up the LTH points for some decent rewards.

However, things didn't go as planned and Oliver singed himself.

Oliver finished his second sculpture. Between the 2, he should get his first promotion.

When he got to the consignment shop, he found the Sorensons there. Oliver was already a good acquaintance of Chaim, so he chatted with him until they were friends. Then, he asked Chaim for his blessings to marry Melonie. Chaim agreed and said no one else was a better choice for her.

Afterwards, he chatted with Melonie and asked her to move in with him. She accepted and they took off together. Oliver's sculptures, however, still haven't sold up to the point this update ends.

Melonie got to know the family a bit during meal time. It turns out that she already has a great relationship with Lily and Oliver, but needs to build one with Brandon and Christa. Melonie is very good friends with one parent (I think her mother), and has almost no relationship with the other (Chaim, I believe.)

On the last day I played, Brandon and Lily were first to wake up. I wasn't ready for them to wake up yet, so I had them woohoo, then go back to bed for a bit.

Melonie had not been the best with doing her homework. I had her do it, but it did not raise her grade any. Both Lily and Brandon are high in logic, so Lily started to tutor her. She got her overall grade to a B, but probably will not have an A before aging up.

Oliver took her driving. Neither Chaim or Ginger Sorenson had the time to take her, apparently. Melonie also has a brother named Sherman, but we haven't met him yet in any update. I think I mistakenly mentioned earlier that Elizabeth was Melonie's grandmother, but turns out I looked at my family tree wrong. Elizabeth was actually just married to Melonie's grandfather at one point, but Melonie doesn't come from her side.

To end this update, Lily went to a Spooky Day party. She only chatted to a couple of Sims, and played Rock, Paper, Scissors with Elizabeth.
