Jin is very sweet! 💗It is cute that he told them about Princess Cordelia. Congratulations to Gavin on beating the Royal Envoy in chess! 🙂
I hope that the next task completes for you after removing your mods.- Wildstripe1 month agoSeasoned Veteran
It seems like Laura needs to "patch things up" with Kakashi... maybe after he calms down. On the bright side, I'm trying out the new Regal Residence lot trait.
It was raining in Detroit, and only the most dedicated buskers as well as their most supportive fans were outside. As was the Royal Envoy. In fact, she waited for the Reeds at their favorite fishing spot to inform them that their next task was to familiarize themselves with the Thor family.
Jin: "Oh! Da Dor family! Prindess Cooooordy!"
Daniel: "Captain Cordeila is part of the Thor dynasty? Er, was, I mean. Her being dead for centuries already."
Tina: "You can believe Jinny in this. He knows everything about Princess Cordelia."
Daniel: "But she was a pirate!"
Jin: "She hadda double-life, Danny! Pirate at sea and Queen at land! Nobody knew, haha! She was clever like dis!"
From Jin's babbling, the adults also learned that Cordelia had been interested in paintings. Hadn't that topic come up early on during the investigation already...?
Gavin and Daniel went on a date in the park.
The days were getting warmer, now that it was halfway through spring. Soon they could not just dip their toes into the fountain, but splash in it.
Daniel: "We had burgers and kisses, and I absolutely cannot complain, but... why chess now?"
Gavin: "The envoy will only tell me more about the mission if I beat her in chess. So, do your best!"
(While Gavin has the highest Logic skill of the trio, both Tina and Daniel are gamers, so it makes sense for me that they'd give Gavin pointers.)
Tina: "Well, who's winning?"
Jin: "Dad!"
Tina: "Hehe, yeah. And for real?"
The little boy looked at the chess board more attentively now, studying the formation. At this point it was easy to predict the outcome.
Jin: "Also dad!"
Royal envoy: "You won? Why are you always a step ahead of me? Argh, you're so annoying! I'm leaving now! ... I'll call you later and tell you what I know."
Gavin: "What the PLUM is going on here? First she hires me, then she makes me jump through hoops to get my next assignment and she always gets envious when I bring results!"
Tina: "Look at the situation through your detective eyes! What does your experience tell you?"
Gavin: "...that she wanted an easily manipulated pawn and now that I turned out too independent, or too alert, or both, she has second thoughts regarding her choice."
Tina: "There you have it! I mean, just because you aren't a cop anymore, didn't make all the crooks in the world vanish."
(The next task doesn't complete for me. It's probably the Call anytime mod at fault. I'll temporarily take it out tomorrow and see if that helps.)
Rowena doesn’t look too impressed at all! 🙂Her Winter outfit is lovely ❤️

I'm not sure what the envoy said about the Thebes, but it doesn't look like Rowena's a fan.
It was great reading about how Kakashi and Laura went doing this week’s tasks 🙂It isn’t too good that the result was an empty box, and Kakashi ended up receiving the flirty spouse and looming anxiety moodlets and Laura the moral misstep moodlet because Laura flirted with Mortimer in the midst of the tasks at the museum! 🙁

Thanks! And yes; practicing chess did help Kakashi, as well as the fact that he's level 10 in Logic.

Week 3, Part 2
After an irritated Royal Envoy stormed out of Magnolia Blossom Park, a disguised Kakashi heads off for home.
Laura was watching TV when he entered the living room, so Kakashi used the remote control to switch to the news channel.... Breaking news! New paintings from the Thebe family are being showcased in the Municipal Muses Museum!
Kakashi decides to call the Royal Envoy on his smart phone, disguising his voice in the process. During the conversation, he received a tip about checking out Municipal Muses.
Laura and Kakashi, the latter disguised as Sukea, travels to Municipal Muses Museum to examine some of the paintings. However, there was nothing out of the ordinary.
Laura came up with an idea: "Why not inspect Cordelia's statue?" One of the townies, Jodie Goins, had the same idea. Laura decides to distract her while Kakashi inspects the aforementioned artwork. Mortimer Goth joins in the conversation, which Laura didn't seem to mind.
Kakashi eventually discovers a hidden code on the bottom of the statue, then calls the Royal Envoy, again disguising his voice. The lady brags that she already used it at a bench, and he's "a bit too late". (At this point, Laura was still talking to Mortimer while Jodi had left the museum.)
Kakashi goes outside the museum to search the benches. Good news: He found a box, and used the code to open it. Bad news: That darn Envoy already stole its contents.
To make things worse, Kakashi received the Flirty Spouse and Looming Anxiety moodlets while Laura currently has the Moral Misstep moodlet. It's all because Kakashi (disguised as Sukea) had caught Laura flirting with Mortimer in the Municipal Muses Museum! 🙀
It is great that Kakashi is learning more things about Princess Cordelia. It wasn’t too good that in the midst of doing the event there was a visit from a burglar! 🙁It was great though that the police was able to arrest the burglar. Congratulations to Kakashi on winning the chess match against the Royal Envoy! 🙂His practising of chess before him must have helped.
