Not So Berry Complex

Chapter 9-Extraterrestrial Explorer
Since Nicola randomized to the kleptomaniac trait, I decided she would want to be a Rambunctious Scamp in preparation for becoming a cat burglar some day.

Penny has avoided introducing herself to the Cortes family across the street because she's pretty sure Bo's mother Mae is a vampire. At Austin's urging, however, she decides to open up communication. Penny starts the conversation with Mae by mentioning that her blood is a bad vintage. Meanwhile, Austin finds Bo in her room, which clearly hasn't been updated since she was eight. After a bit of flirting, he has his third first kiss with Bo, completing level 2 of the Serial Romantic aspiration.

Penny is now an Extraterrestrial Explorer, the top of the Scientist career! All of the work examining materials on her analyzer has also allowed her to master the Logic skill.

Of course, she hasn't forgotten to work on her Mischief at work too, from freezing visiting aliens to turning the receptionist into a ghost. She finally masters the Mischief skill while visiting the Moonwood Mill Library. Kristopher Volkov did not appreciate the fake bad news.

Austin invited Kaori to his birthday party and they aged up together. It turns out they're both snobs now (for Kaori this happened randomly). As a young adult, he's taken ownership of the Rose house. This is definitely an upgrade from sharing a bunk bed with his little sister.

Victor gets Austin a job as a social justice worker. One of his first assignments is to start a protest in the Art District. Nobody paid any attention to him.

When the work day is done, Austin has time to make some new friends ;). His first guest at the Rose house is an alien named Lacey that he met wandering around his neighborhood, confused. Another day he meets Wolfgang Munch at the Bath de Rille. Something about his bad boy mystique attracts Austin.

Friday is Love Day. Austin invites Kaori over, but he suddenly develops an angry mood. Am I the only one who didn't know that angry kissing was a thing in the Sims? Penny and Victor spend the evening dancing at a cafe.

Late at night, Jamie is abducted by aliens outside of his house.
