Strangervill love trouble (story input wanted)

I need way to reconcile two sims after a breach of trust. The interaction I used had no ingame effect, their friendship is still at 100% and romance at roughly 75%. However, what happened between them is pretty bad, so I can’t just marry them as if everything was fine.


  • “Willow” and “Amos” are both in the military career, she in the Resistance, he in the First Order. They are part of a mixed team that is tasked with defeating the motherplant and during the mission they fell in love.
  • Amos is possessed. Not knowing what side effects the experimental vaccine might have, Willow spilled it into Amos face without warning and now they don’t talk anymore.
  • They live in a tiny bunker in Strangerville with four other sims: one dorm, one mess hall, one bathroom and a botany lab, so avoiding each other is difficult. Going out is dangerous (in my story at least), so they only do that to gather spores and fruit, wearing hazmat suits.
  • Willow’s motivation to choose Amos as test subject was NOT to save him (he is able to fend off MOTHER quite well on his own in my story). She picked Amos as test subject because he is a maximum rank First Order officer and as such would be the least missed if he accidently died. A lot of people would sleep better at night if Amos was dead. Everyone in the bunker knows Willow’s reasoning (she confided right after the test, saying the choice that resulted in the least pain for the galaxy, caused the most pain to her personally).
  • Amos had gotten better as a person ever since he teamed up with the Resistance sims and was actually close to defecting. His last words before getting assaulted with the vaccine were “In my world we’d just grab a random townie and force-feed them the vaccine to see what happens. But I understand that this isn’t how you guys operate, and I accept that.” Ten seconds later he got splashed by the love of his life.
  • Amos and the other First Order sim in the team are rivals. Willow is good friends with the three other Resistance sims in the team.
  • Amos’ traits are Genius, Self-Absorbed, Ambitious and Dastardly. By right he belongs into a cowplant’s stomach, but the Willow-sim is very insistent on wanting him. Willow’s traits are Geek, Loner, Horse Lover and Quick Learner.


The goal is for my sims to get back together. Suggestions what either of them could/would/should do?

(Thank you for reading my wall of text! Here are some pics for your trouble:)

He's lying like this because I use a mod that replaces the butt-in-the-air pose of unconscious sims with the alchemy failure pose.

The last screenshot is posed:

"She could at least have asked!"
"Then you'd said no and she'd had to do it anyway."
