Playing Together: Finding Love after a Breakup Scenario.

I think it was Dela's festering grudge sentiment that lingered longer, I can't remember for sure though. But even after you get rid of the grudge, their relationship is so bad that no matter what you do with they, they will start to autonomously respond with nasty interactions (I did not try playing without autonomy to see if that helped at all). The club was honestly my life saver since I banned anything mean or mischievous so it made my friendly interactions actually have more of an impact, though it takes a lot of patience to chip it away. I had them play a TON of chess and do friendly socials while playing and that was what really helped in the end. Not super fun for screenshots or story telling, but as far as the mechanics go, that's what worked haha. If you're worried about Alison's sentiment continuing to flare up, I'd honestly just travel with her or Victor to another lot and have them basically not come home for like two days (you can get creative with caring for needs but I feel like there's a lot of lots that would provide all you need haha). I didn't do exactly that, but with Dela being at work a lot and having Mia do stuff with Noah and on her own, it really helped just get them into better moods in general and let those sentiments fade. Also I have been known to do needs resets when challenges don't strictly forbid it - as in when all their need bars are just getting depressingly low and it seems like their hunger and sleep are not lined up with in game time properly at all, I do a "fill household needs" and let them get a fresh start haha. I try not to do it often, but since we don't have official "rules" for this challenge, it's something that keeps me sane. Also as you can probably tell, I enjoy storytelling more than I enjoy actually playing the game if I'm being honest, so I am prone to use little cheats and tweaks to make my story go how I want the screenshot to look haha. Don't worry though, I'm not doing any cheating when it comes to actually getting these girls to finish this challenge. I'm just picky with what I actually take a screenshot of haha
