Powers Background 1

 Roxie Sharpe and Jonah Powers are EA created sims from the Academie Le Tour. In my game they didn't stay in college particularly long. partly because they spent waaay more time making music than they did studying.

 And also because lots and lots of unprotected woohoo led to an unexpected (but inevitable) pregnancy! Roxie's brother Edwin moved in with his girlfriend Delilah, and Roxie and Jonah both dropped out of college in order to throw a family together and give their baby a chance.

Here they are grown up and ready to move on.

They moved in to 'Starfield Shack' - a cheap and very run-down place on the edge of town. Roxie got a job as a legal secretary, and Jonah as a fast food restaurant employee. Both their engagement and wedding itself were very low-key - the couple had no family (besides Roxie's younger brother) who could support them and with a baby already on the way, money was extra tight.

Starfield Shack was far from the glamorous rockstar life they both dreamed of, but with a small bedroom, bathroom and living area with kitchenette, it was all the young couple needed. They squeezed their all-important instruments into the porch.
Their furniture was cheap and mostly reclaimed junk, with a few posters thrown on the walls to try and brighten it up a bit.

 And way sooner than the couple would have liked, it was baby time!

Without much room for the baby, the couple built a breezeblock lean-to on the side of their house - just big enough for a tiny nursery for baby Arran. They also made over the bathroom to make it a little more child-friendly.

They may not have had much money and both were working hard, but Roxie and Jonah were still determined to be excellent parents to little Arran. Jonah switched to nights and they worked in shifts so there was no need for a nanny.




 All too soon baby Arran was growing up and preparing for school. Roxie worked hard to repaint Arran's room into the perfect little boy's room with a cool space theme.

 Jonah and Arran spent quiet time together fishing in front of the house.

 And then eating the fruits of their labour!

 Roxie, meanwhile, was progressing through the Law career track, working hard to get promoted and bring in more money to the family. She had to because Jonah kept getting fired from his jobs x.x

 Roxie also helped Arran with his homework, being slightly brighter than her husband. XD
