The Alania Look Estate
This update is more about one of the requirements for the challenge I created. I spent a week developing toddler potty training skills, so I didn't spend enough time raising money for developing the estate. It turns out that skills from Logical Tasks aren't the best way to make money quickly.
For Reference: Logical Tasks would be anything that gets a skill boost from the focused moodlet while creative tasks get a boost from the inspired moodlet. That means, for the Part 2 of the Blue Tail Arc, I had to make money from the Career, Gaming Tournaments, Handiness, Rocket Science, and etc. Eventually, I figured out how to sell discoveries as a Marine Biologist and make tons of money that way. But, I still did everything within 28 sim days.
This lot is shared to the Gallery, but it is incomplete. I'm sharing the most developed parts of the lot.
The Lot is worth 200,000 Simoleons and only uses items from the Base Game, Island Living, and Jungle Adventure.

Dylan and Zeph in their Traditional Merman Attire
I moved their merman attire to their swimwear. Because they almost only use that outfit category, they'll conform to their traditional attire as Mermen Princes.

This won't stop Zeph from choosing his own outfits though. How does he manage to pull off his own outfits and look good doing it. It's a mystery of the Sim Universe.
But, this wasn't the first time that Zeph chose an outfit for himself that didn't exist as a possible outfit. He has a very polished style.
On the other fin, Dylan can't really pull this off if he isn't acting as an Entertainer despite being a Marine Biologist.
Entertainer Dylan
I don't know what Dylan decided to wear, but he decided to leave immediately. I guess he realized his mistake a little too late.
I discovered that the Survey interaction is a good way to make money, and it reveals invasive species in Sulani that can be sprayed.

For a while, I stopped seeing merfolk drift underwater while they sleep. I'm extremely happy to see this back. I want to see my merfolk do more underwater. Aside from sleeping, the only other thing I can see them do underwater involves surveying ocean wildlife. The game has been struggling with this interaction because merfolk don't snorkel. At least, they don't normally have a snorkel interaction.

"And that's how a merman became a vampire! He's now cursed to live in the shadows."

I imagine that Dylan is removing invasive species fishing.

Now, I'll be taking a break from Lir's Story to develop the skills of several toddlers. I won't spend a full 28 sim days on each household unless I need to. However, I will be developing:

Dylan Nearly Killed Lir with a Funny Story
Spoiler
The Merfolk ability to sleep in water saved Lir's Life. He would have gone belly up in the water, and merfolk deaths in the water are extremely glitched. The death animation looks like the Drowning Animation in their merform. Arihi had to recycle Calum's Urn when that happened to him. Don't tell Calum that he's a Gallery copy.
Lir greeted Dylan with a splash.

Now, I'll be taking a break from Lir's Story to develop the skills of several toddlers. I won't spend a full 28 sim days on each household unless I need to. However, I will be developing:
- The babies from my Island Alien Household.
- Kai Kealoha from the Kealoha Household.
- Alex and Alen Kailani
- and finally, I'll age up Jade and Juniper Zalrian before starting Jack's Rotation.
