@gerefteast Then I'm sorry it was a very small update this time. I've mostly been playing the families in my other story thread recently. Thank you for stopping by, there'll be more updates soon!
The teens have been spending a lot of time with their friends lately. They're soon about to grow up and finish school for good, and then who knows where everyone will get scattered to and how much time they'll have to hang out.
They've also started going to nightclubs, something they haven't been allowed before.
Johanne is still popular too, and is starting to roam around the neighborhood with her friends.
But she's also studying hard to become a model student, just like her older siblings who are trying to secure good grades before graduating.
But of course, Jonatan also finds some time for camping. He's fascinated by all the creatures and plants of the forest, and has started experimenting with some herbal potions.
Maybe that's something he'll be able to make a living out of when he ages up?
The twins have become young adults, and while Jonatan has decided to flee the nest, Aurora is staying in the spacious family home for the time being. She's got herself a job as a programmer, and has already started making apps and winning gaming tournaments.
Johanne is quite happy to still have her big sister in the house and get great help with her school projects. Yin is helping too.
Aurora has finally started a serious relationship with Carter, a boy from her gaming club who she's been crushing on for ages.
Their favorite dating spots are the ice cream café and the science museum.
Jonatan has moved to Windenburg. He wanted his home to be as outdoors as possible, and has bought an old abandoned farm lot.
There's only an empty barn and a little shed on it, but Jonatan has already started to make improvements. He's growing vegetables and furnishing the shed, and is making long term plans to turn it into his dream home.
Pernille is with him of course, and with so many new opportunities to hunt squirrels and investigate she needs a bath rather often.
Jonatan wanted to live really simple initially, so he's doing his laundry by hand and has no proper toilet on the lot yet.
He wants to make a living without a regular job, and use what he has on his lot to craft things he can sell. He makes lots of herbal remedies from what he's planted in his garden.
He's also started to learn woodworking.
Every week or so he goes down in the village to sell his things at the market place.
"Homemade herbal remedies, pet insects from Granite Falls? Anything of interest?"
In a hut with only one room, it's a good thing he lives alone. He doesn't even get privacy from his dog.
He has no problem with living without much social contact, but it's nice to see his old friends now and again. Aurora enjoys getting away from her computer, she used to love camping too when they were children.
And Jonatan has become quite good at telling ghost stories.
Fridtjof is always the last to leave, and Jonatan is starting to understand why. There's something more than just friendly feelings going on between the old buddies.
Johanne also likes to visit him, and she's never been shy of strangers. All your friends are there? No problem, I'll entertain them!
Jonatan is becoming more confident about his feelings for Fridtjof, and he decides it's time they start hanging out only the two of them.
On their first real date, they go to the nectar garden in the village.
They have a lovely time, and it's quite obvious they're about to go steady now. Fridtjof is also an outdoorsy type, and hopefully won't have a problem with coming to live at the farm with Jonatan.
Some time has passed, and Jonatan and Fridtjof now live together. They still go out to eat quite regularly, and right now they're planning a trip to Selvadorada. Fridtjof is very interested i archaeology, and hopes to find some rare artifacts in the ruins out there.
And so they head out to their vacation. First stop is the marketplace, where they get some food and supplies for their trip.
Since Jonatan is good at making herbal remedies, he's decided to make some insect repellent and deodorant creams which should come in handy.
Fridtjof is playing with Pernille in the meantime. Of course she's come along too!
The next day they aim to reach further into the jungle, and they end up finding some beautiful areas. First they find some ruins with a pool where they spend some time.
Then they find some gardens that are also wonderful.
At home, things look a bit different than when Jonatan lived alone. They've renovated a part of the old barn into a small apartment.
The stone shack has become a workshop/storage area.
They finally have a proper bathroom, even though it's not very fancy or large.
They plan to go back to Selvadorada as soon as possible, but before they do that they pay a visit to Jonatan's family in Willow Creek. Johanne has grown into a teenager.
So when they're back home, they have to start planning their wedding. But first, there are still so many artifacts that need to be uncovered and authenticated. Pernille offers moral support.
As the treasures get ready, they go out to sell some of them. Mostly in the old town.
But they have also started to go to the San Myshuno festivals, which have many potential customers.
Jonatan is the better at selling, but Fridtjof is getting used to it as well. They hope to be able to afford a real shop soon!
They decide to have a private wedding ceremony, and then celebrate with family after. So in the Windenburg chalet gardens there is only one wedding spectator (unless the ghosts are watching from the castle).
Married!
Then they meet up with Jonatan's family for a celebration dinner in San Myshuno.
They stay late and have lots of food and wine. A great way to celebrate a marriage!
Comments
But sometimes her work is interrupted by her annoying coworkers making mistakes that she has to help put right.
But she's not immune to making mistakes herself, and the freeze gun she's invented has come to use at home as well.
She's recently been promoted to level 9, and can continue her research with even higher payment.
They've also started going to nightclubs, something they haven't been allowed before.
There are some nights when he returns home and can barely stand up from work exhaustion.

It's a good thing they prepared well, because very soon they are attacked by all kinds of jungle creatures.
They'll soon rewarded too. Treasure!
Jonatan isn't that interested to dig around for artifacts, so he's mostly relaxing while Fridjof is working.
It probably isn't possible to find a spider-free camp, so here will have to do.
Luckily none of them are afraid of the jungle crawlers, and they're quite comfortable with going to bed here.
The jungle can be quite romantic, and at least none of their many legged neighbors will be bothered by some tent woohoo.
Then they find some gardens that are also wonderful.
They spend the rest of the evening around the market. Jonatan finds a good fishing spot.
Fridtjof plays some fetch with Pernille at the marketplace.
Their evening ends in the cantina, where they get to know some nice locals. It's time to travel home now, but they'd like to return soon!

They plan to go back to Selvadorada as soon as possible, but before they do that they pay a visit to Jonatan's family in Willow Creek. Johanne has grown into a teenager.
And they quickly find a new area, located right underneath the pool they were at last time. It's beautiful and has a lot of collectibles.
It also has a great fishing spot, and they end up staying there all afternoon.
It works great as a place to camp that night. They've brought more camping gear this time, so they're quite comfortable.
It's not easy to find the way inside, and they end up having to swim through a sort of pool maze.
Once in there, they meet all sort of strange traps and challenges.
And some scary bugs! But being so well prepared this time, they don't have much to fear.
And find some treasure!
They travel back out to the outskirts of the jungle and make camp there. It's nice to eat some grilled food again!
Fridtjof now has a lot of artifacts to authenticate.
They meet up when they're done, and go to enjoy the amazing view from up here.
And Jonatan proposes!
What a beautiful place to get engaged
As the treasures get ready, they go out to sell some of them. Mostly in the old town.
