Collab for the Alien Adoption Challenge #Collab4AAC

Blaze Jang (Lorna's eldest son) will be assigned one of the children upon him arriving at YAhood (conveniently, he did just an in-game day ago) instead of getting a plot of land like he had hoped. Sadly only one child per household can get that coveted assignment and that will, of course, be Skye.

In this particular land, as Rainey reminded me, is already pretty heavy handed. If you don't get an empty plot, you get assigned government housing. Blaze also go the unfortunate news that he has been assigned Jury Duty. Unlike the Jury Duty you all might be familiar with, this is a more permanent position. This land has a group of permanent Jurors, professionals, you might say. After 10 years he will be able to do his own thing. Of course, as we all know this is a ruse to give him a small non-verbal alien. (Leon). So he's saddled with a tiny government issue plot and house and now child. He wanted to be an artist or musician and get a huge house like Robin and Rowan. (poor tyke).

I'm working through the kinks of the base-world now. In Drifter-land, three generations ago Taylor Drifter, renown scientists discovered a portal to a parallel universe. (If I remember rightly, I will be rereading to make sure I remember that). These are different? aliens. And aliens are less common than they were for that brief generation. It's just too hard to keep popping back and forth. Folks do know about multi-colored aliens, but chances are they've never met one. I'm not sure if Blaze needs to keep his child secret or it can be part of the family. Thoughts?

Secondly, we have Penelope. Who has been working at the police station since the Fitness Pack came out. She lives in San Myshuno. (Yes, here we are breaking ALL the rules, lol). The police are going to recover an alien child wandering around (Hannah) and Penelope will be asked to take care of her. I'm not sure if Penelope's own alien nature is known or not. (I'm currently leaning towards yes? But I'm open if anyone see anything brilliant). I'm not sure if Penelope even remembers she's an alien...something i was toying with that she lost her memory at the end of the Blue Peas Adventure...that I will someday finish. Wasn't part of my initial plan for that story, but have Penelope discover she too is an alien might be an interesting plot device. But I had thought to abuse her alien mind reading so perhaps I'll just have them be different "species". Plus Penelope is really 1/2 alien and was raised by sims, so she can be just as baffled by the child.

As Penelope is NOT part of the government program, she will be actively looking for Hannah's origins. Not sure how our vague yet menacing government agency will respond to losing a child. Perhaps they're just happy she found a home? Penelope and Blaze are in different saves, but with similar sims. (For example both will run into simselves and other folks I've dropped in as they both have fresh saves and that's my default new game save).
