It sounds like the Scientist career really worked out for Katie, seeing as she made so many good friends there.
It worked out great – I was worried about trying to do an active career so far through, but she worked late every day, and the game ran really smoothly once it was off the main lot. So she spent all her spare time befriending everybody and making wormhole generators (and eating vending machine junk food).
Hooray for Katie! Nice work, immortal lady! (Was not attempting to make a very short poem there. Apologies.)
Loved the informal dance party to celebrate!
Nice job Chloe as well! Graduated from chewing on rubber ducks to telling jokes in one update! Way to go, girl!
Congratulations to Katie (and you, of course)!
Thank you!
Now that she was a teen and had Romantic social options available, Chloe began to convert her Social Butterfly friends into serial romantic interests. Her main partner, if there is such a thing, was Christopher’s lovechild Raelyn Childs – a romantic geek, and Chloe’s childhood BFF.
They spent a pleasant weekend knocking out dates to achieve the first half of Serial Romantic.
When Raelyn’s back was turned, Chloe also became the girlfriend of every other teen in town, including Raelyn’s younger sisters once they aged up.
And just as she ran out of teens to romance, she had a very convenient birthday....
...and set to work on the adult population.
She continued to work on her comedy skill, and joined the entertainment career (and had to wear a particularly silly outfit).
But she could tolerate the uniform – she got to tell jokes for a living, which she loved.
[At this point my game developed a delightful bug where it stopped capturing screenshots. I got the major shots with Print Screen, but it took ages to switch between windows and I didn’t take many. So if you’re thinking this update seems a little sparse, that would be because it is

Chloe had her adult birthday.
And soon after, was promoted to the top of the Comedian career.
She hurried off to a nightclub to make herself some friends, including making the mixologist her new BFF. (Things with Raelyn had been a bit awkward since she witnessed Chloe’s first kiss with somebody else....)
In fact, she was so taken with the club that the rest of the Johnsons came to hang out there. The game ran so much more smoothly on the smaller lot that they worked it in shifts, taking it in turns to go home for sleep and showers.
Ada isn't so good at partying, but she managed to pass the time anyway.
And finally, the big day arrived.
Chloe's collection of comedy books was added to the family museum.
And she ate her first (and last) dish of ambrosia.
