What did you do with Premades in Strangerville?

Cahill and the Roswells seem like really unique characters. Any thoughts on what to do with them?

Also playing the point of view of civillians/non-investigators who do not have a clue what hit them and how long the crisis will last was satisfying.
I didn't seriously play the Holland and Roswell households, but fell in love with the Sigworth couple. At first they appeared bland and boring, but then Dylan gained a Fame star from selling his homemade cakes and Jess acquired a good reputation as well as several promotions despite her condition... that was satisfying, too. Especially since she is an officer, what saved me from playing "plucky intrepid investigators save everyone from corrupt/inept military" again and turned the first part of the story into an official government mission.
So far, I have not played Cahill.
The Roswells are not that unique but pretty ordinary. In my game, they had a baby boy who is a teenager now. I don't recall his name right now.
I am thinking of pairing him up with Christie Sigworth who is a teenager, too. In fact, I made the son of the Roswells age to a teenager as Christie was flirty without having any teenager to flirt with.
Edit: I play in Danish. The son of the Roswells is called Ulrik.
His parents are elder now. Money cheats were used for adding new objects and plants to the house.
Christie Sigworth looks like this now. She still lives with her parents, meaning she doesn't belong to the Roswells yet.

Edit II: It looks like Cahill has left Strangerville.
Eclectic Arts has got a fourth inhabitant called Neco Woods as well as more objects and plants.
In the third house at the plateau lives Pranav Mahajan and Ayaka Mori.
I have no idea where Pranav came from. Ayaka is a former mailwoman who started showing up everywhere. I presumed she wanted a life. So far, I didn't do anything else with that household.

Edit III: I didn't even stop there. I cheated to end the story of Strangerville. Afterwards, I moved the scientists, conspiration theorists and military persons helping the hereoine into other households in different worlds. One former conspiration theorist lives in Strangerville while other former scientists and soldiers live in Oasis Springs or Willow Creek. I don't even know whether pictures would be helpful.
In this picture, a former scientist from Strangerville is dining with Dina Caliente.
As I am still playing in Danish, her name is Maria Krogh and her former title is Forsker. In fact, Maria moved into the old Caliente household after Nina moved out and Katrina died from old ages.
Something wicked this way comes!
I don't use MCCC.
My hero was a Latina woman named Martina Sandoval who moved to StrangerVille after university. I said that she was from "Phoenix, AZ" and moved out to this remote town for the low cost of living and to get away from her estranged father. She's really handy, independent and logical. She worked from home in a remote tech job. She married a really buff military guy who helped her throughout the mystery. She only had kids later, so far, two independent girls, one of whom is almost too like her so they quarrel.
Martina has a best friend who I recently made playable. Sorry, I'm not remembering her name, she's a townie. Her friend is really pretty and grew up in the town. She is really young but wears her hair up in rollers and moved into the trailer where she scraps by in a part-time working class job. I said that the friend is the descendant of women from the old west who followed the stage coaches and trains westward.
Ted Roswell's family has been there since before that time and managed to run other settlers off while his family consolidated power. His wife is really religious (alluding to a specific religion that I won't name). Ted married her when she was really young and she's really submissive with cooking and cleaning but she can't have any kids, rather like the plot for a famous book, but not that intense. The wife obsesses over religion and feels like a failure. I've already decided that she and Ted will not be able to have kids together. There won't be a lucky surprise. Ted is disappointed and has a roving eye. (No, I don't want to be Ted, lol, it's a plot).
Ted was attracted to Martina and they had a brief fling during the height of the crisis at StrangerVille but Martina ended it to pursue things with the guy that she married. Ted is jealous that she and her husband have kids but Martina completely ended it. I haven't decided if Ted will pursue Martina's best friend now that he's been rejected. Martina was new in town and Ted thought she was both exotic and smart whereas he knows the whole history of her friend and thinks she's low class ... but pretty and probably able to have kids. I've contemplated the idea that Ted will have a fling with the friend and she'll have a child that she'll either raise without knowing the father or that his wife will try to steal. We'll see.
The other household in the Roswells' neighborhood is like a hippie commune of wealthy YAs who moved there after college for the low cost of living and who are living in some communal house. I haven't decided where that is going but I think that they and the Roswells really do not like each other. I haven't done anything with the Sigworths at this time. They are just normal military neighbors and colleagues of Martina's husband.
George is just an eccentric loner who lives in a plane. When he's gone, I might convert the lot because I really want to liven the town a little.
I think Ted really wants to be with Martina but it's not going to happen while her husband is alive if ever. Ted is not a great guy but he runs the town. We'll see about the rest.
I haven't done much with Roger Cahill, besides testing how tiny a survivalist bunker could be and still be 100% functional. I wish online dating was a thing in TS4 because it would fit him so well. Currently looking for love, send suggestions.
The Sigworths are happily living in the most "brand new" looking house I could manage. Their daughter got turned into a toddler because I needed more toddler premades and they're both very young anyway. Their life is too sweet though, I'm trying to decide what wrench I can throw in there.
Meredith Roswell is probably my favorite new premade, finally someone to play the charity organizer branch of the politician career (Ted is in the other branch). I made a random daughter for them in CAS to test Island Living and ended up liking her so much she joined my main save. Their ranch/farmhouse is still very WIP but that doesn't stop me from playing.
The Eclectic Arts household is my least favorite so far. I like them, but I've played "young artists flatsharing" many times already, and I don't feel like doing it again. I like their Hitman2-inspired house though, like they inherited it from some old aunt, and didn't bother redecorating. They will most likely be my Uni test sims.
