New love

Since breaking up with Emilie, Mike has been getting out and about and trying to meet new people. He's been to lounges...

You're not going to meet anyone just staring at that wall, Mike

...parties...

Who throws a pool party in the middle of winter? When they don't even have a pool??

...and even tried the kissing booth when he got particularly lonely.

Seriously, you paid for that? Dude.

One night before a gig he ran into Emilie and they chatted for a bit, perfectly civilly. No chance of a reconciliation though.

Thanks, but no thanks.

Finally, Mike decided that he would be a bit more proactive with his love life. There's this girl named Alice Fitzgerald that he's seen around town and has always thought was attractive. So instead of waiting for her to show up at one of his shows or at whatever club he's at, he just went straight to her house. At midnight.

Good move. Not creepy.

Luckily, all of Alice's housemates seem to have jobs at weird hours, and they were just getting home. Mike was getting on quite well with one of the housemates, actually, but then Alice herself came home. It turns out she's a criminal.

So...you know the Hamburglar?

It didn't take long for Mike to work his irresistible magic.

I too have excellent dress sense. You should see my university shirt.

They were friends by that night, and the next day he invited her over with the wish to become 'good friends'. I was a bit worried since he'd identified her housemate as 'rich'. NOT ANOTHER RICH GIRL! But Alice wasn't listed as rich, even though they lived in the same house, so I figured she was still fair game. They hung out for most of that day and had their first kiss that afternoon.

Aww.

Immediately afterwards, Mike asked her to be his girlfriend. He wasn't going to waste any time with this one.

Awwww.

He had to go to a gig then, but Alice must have followed him there, because she showed up just as he got on stage. Awwwwwww!

At first he thought it was just some criminal scum, but it turned out to be his criminal scum

So that was all fine and dandy but I was a little concerned about Alice's age, because of course Mike needs a heir to carry on his legacy. It turns out she's only eight days away from becoming an elder. LET THE BABY MAKING COMMENCE!

Of course I would love to have your children, man I met two days ago

I moved her in the very next morning. Unfortunately, RIGHT before Mike asked her to move in, he discovered she was rich. BALLS. I got around it by using the familyfunds cheat to take away all the money she brought in. I figure that makes it fair. The second thing I did, of course, was edit her in CAS. Turns out she's not QUITE as pretty as I had hoped, but you know, her imperfections are what makes her unique.

The nose is gigantic, but so are her jugs!

Mike seems happy anyway, so that's the main thing. Next step will be marriage and kids! Yay!

Also house update! There's an actual bedroom! He's also redone his kitchen and living room. Starting to look like a real house now.

I'd totally live here.
