Surviving the Holidays - my sims moved in!
December 24. The morning of Christmas Eve.

Since the day Hank had finalized the timetable, the snow had continually melted to the point where the streets were free today. Gavin Reed took that as an opportunity to show off his cold resistance, combining patroling the neighborhood with a jog.
This is actually his work task for the day. Because the scenario is bugged, I must not ever travel with my sims. Gavin therefore works in Military, Antony in Engineering, two jobs they can do from home.

Meanwhile Antony Deckart quickly retreated into the main office, relieved not to have to interact with the detective yet. Between the “android lover” and the human supremacist stood not only their different worldviews, as of late Gavin had also started getting closer to Daniel, and with Daniel and Antony still (or once again) being as contrary as they had been when they had first met in august, Gavin was Antony’s enemy by association.
After checking on his patrol bots, the equipment officer put up a workbench and started tinkering with abandon.
Antony already knew that he had a Build your own Servo kit coming from Santa this year, in fact, he had taken it with him when he had left home this morning (still wrapped, of course). Now the man was preparing components that he’d need later.

Gavin passed by Officer Orochi Person*. The woman smiled. Of course she would, Gavin thought. Everyone who had the day off themselves would smile when they spotted a less fortunate co-worker!
Next he saw a man dressed up as Kylon Ren, who sold wooden figurines. The wooden star to the far left looked vaguely christmas-y, so Gavin bought it. After how the detective had sabotaged old Ben last week, not to mention how creative he got to avoid having to chip in for the coffee, Orochi wouldn’t have believed Gavin would ever give to charity. But truth was, having disposable cash to throw around and doing some good felt good to Gavin - in exactly that order.
When Gavin returned to the police station, the reception area was empty. Antony had lit Rika’s and Chika’s advent wreath, but the girls themselves were absent, undergoing maintenance at a CyberLife store.
The men would have to put a patrol android to reception desk duty later, or take turns doing it themselves. Both were social persons, Gavin even moreso than Antony, but despite this he’d fight teeth and claws against manning the reception. To the proud detective being relegated to “Hello, my name is Gavin, how can I help you?” would be unbearable.
Angry at the very thought, the man marched down the hallway.

Gavin hadn’t yet reached the public area’s Christmas Tree, when he heard Antony address him via the loudspeakers: “Could you stay right where you are and wait for the food delivery? I’m running a diagnosis here, can’t leave now. But I ordered spaghetti and clam chowder.”
“Weird combination, but I’ll take it”, Gavin replied into his walkie-talkie.
“Jokester”, Antony chuckled, secretly relieved that he seemed to get Gavin the office clown for his partner, when he had been anxious about getting partnerd with Gavin the office bully all the time. The detective could just as well insulted Antony for using the building’s cameras and speakers as his eyes and mouth, called him an A.I. or something. But he hadn’t done so. Maybe those three days wouldn’t turn out that bad, after all.
“Anyway, the courier should arrive any moment!”
*...Yes, that’s her surname. You’d think she’d be desperate to marry just to stop the jokes about it, but so far wasn’t interested.
