Um, Asher? Where are your clothes?

Asher: Gone. :D
Um, okay... are they going to be coming back?

Asher: Nope. :D
Seriously?!

Asher: Yep. :D
Cora: Is that man...
Cora: Gross.
And then my game crashed, and when I restarted it Asher was suddenly fully clothed and at the park. And all his wishes disappeared. And so did the case he was working on. *sigh*

This maid is called Kate Pistachio. I would totally consider making her co-founder just because of that name, but unfortunately she's old and according to Asher, not attractive. Besides, her surname would change when she married in anyway. Co-founder hunt continues! Moving on.

I sent Asher over to the police station to get a new case, and this time he had to talk to Molly French.
Asher: Hey, can I talk to you for a min-

Molly French: Nope, bye! *runs away*
Molly French: Wooo, yeah! I escaped him!

Asher: I am so tired of this...

Turns out catching up with Molly French is even harder than catching up with Miraj Alvi. She just kept running back and forth between the bistro door and the road!
Asher: Thank goodness, I finally caught up with her!

Molly French: Ghosts...
Asher: Ghosts? Why is she thinking about ghosts? Should I be thinking about ghosts?

Molly French: Oh man, I'm so hungry.
Asher: So look, I know you just spent three sim-hours running back and forth across this courtyard to get away from me, but I really need your suspicious info, you know, for my job?

Molly: Oh, sure! All that running stuff was just for fun.
Seriously?!
Asher: Well this is awkward.

It kind of is, yeah.
Asher: Uh, hey, Zaffie.
Asher: Anyway, um, where do you live?
Well? Did you get the address?

Asher: Yes.

And?
Asher: I'm going home first! So...hungry...

Okay, fine. Go and eat and shower and sleep, and then search illegally through my trash. On second thoughts, maybe you should shower later...
Asher: Why is there a man on my lot who stinks and is surrounded by flies?

Oh, hey now, don't be rude, I'm sure he's just...
...a zombie! Argh! Asher, run!
My simself lives here. I think this is the coolest house ever. Admittedly, my simself has to share it with my sister's simself and my sister's boyfriend's simself, who were visiting the house on the day my simself was created, marched over to my computer and demanded to be included. But still. It's an awesome house.
Asher: Hmmm, Zaffie's letterbox. There must be something incriminating in here!

Pfft, I wouldn't bet on it. I'm clearly innocent.
Asher: Hmmmm.
Asher: Is anyone watching? No one can see me doing this dastardly deed!

Nope, no one around except the wild horse hiding behind the swamp grass.
Wild Horse: *is not impressed*
Whaaaaaaat?! That's not even... I'm not...! Gah *mumblemumbleSims*
Time for a new case, because Molly French doesn't deserve any more screenshots. This time, Asher needs to speak to Cornelia Goth about... something on forums. Cornelia is taking part in a party outside the supermarket, or something...

The sim on the far left is my sister's simself. I actually think there's quite a resemblance. :D
Over to the library, where... this... is going on. I'm not really sure what she's doing either. Or why there's a dog in the library.
Asher proceeded to... stare at a wall.

Asher: This wall. Right here.
He trots off to use the computer in the children's section of the library, because if he's hacking Stiles McGraw from in there, people will be less suspicious!
After spending several hours on the computer 'solving the unsolvable' for a bit of extra cash, Asher heads over to find Cornelia again to report to her that the hacking work is done. She's... still standing in front of the supermarket with Nick Alto. You think these two are stuck?
Turns out insulting people on forums for her makes Cornelia hot. Asher isn't interested, though, because she's old and married. The search continues!
Asher goes home and sleeps, la di da di da. The following day he gets a case from Stiles McGraw. I expected it to be revenge, but turns out he was just suspicious... or something... about someone... geez, I don't remember. That's what happens when I leave a delay between playing and writing the chapter.
Asher: So, I hear you have some suspicious info to give me.

Heather Frost: *eavesdrops*

Seriously, you would think they could do this somewhere more private.
I sent Asher over to meet Heather, so that he could pretend to be totally innocent. She has a weird profile. Huh.
Going through mail again, and Asher looks as shifty as ever. I changed his work outfit. :D It's now... GREY. With like bits of blue just cos.
He dives right into the bin and scrabbles eagerly through other people's garbage without a hint of fear! That's his... eccentric trait showing?
Asher: Wassat?
Asher: So, I didn't find any good blackmail material, and I don't get why you want to blackmail someone totally innocent anyway!

Stiles: *is suspiciously silent*
Next case! It seems that Sinbad has a heart after all, and he wants to know if his girlfriend really loves him before he proposes. Nawww. Trouble is, he asked Asher to talk to the girl's family, and she's a former NPC maid, so she has none. Awkward. Case was dropped.
Sinbad Rotter is not impressed.
Ding dong! Whose house might this be? You'll never know! DUN DUN DUN! Suspense!
Okay, it actually belongs to Heather Frost, the fairy from that earlier screencap by the pool. Remember her? Yeah, we're here to visit...
...to visit her adorable puppy, that is! This is Lassie, and I do believe Asher will be adopting her! :D Both of Lassie's parents have appeared in this update, so virtual cookie if you can spot them.
Door: *impales*

Uh, awkward. Let's move on!
Lassie is adorable! I liked her name, so I figured she could keep it, and she now lives in the Jones house/lot, where she actually does have a bed, even if she prefers to sleep on the poorly rendered grass!
No, tiny dog! Do not destroy that chair!
We invited my simself over because Asher had a wish to congratulate her on her marriage to Arthur Pendragon, and it turns out she's a vampire now! Damn vampires turning the entire town *grumblegrumble*.
Wish fulfilled! And then my simself started burning from the daylight and so she went on home.

Zaffie: I'm not staying here a moment longer! Crazy house without a roof...
After that unfortunate meeting, I sent Asher over to introduce himself to his neighbours. After all, he's been living in town for a while, it's about time.
Asher: Whoa, pretty house.
Creepy Marble Floor: Hello, Asher. Why don't you come inside?

Asher: I should really investigate this.
Creepy Marble Floor: Heh heh heh... money...
Vita Alto is a one-star celebrity, so I figured I'd have Ash try and impress her.

Asher: So I'm a PI, I have $1000 in household funds, I have six logic skill points and my phone is ringing!
Vita Alto: Nice work! Because you've achieved all that, I'm going to allow you to talk to me!

Oh what a splendid reward. Then she kicked him out.
This is adorable and makes me happy. :D
That night was the full moon again, and the appearance of another zombie shambling in to attack Asher made me realised that time has been ticking ever onwards in this legacy and still no sign of our co-founder! It might be time to take the searching to the next level. I kept that in mind as I sent Asher over to the Alto house again to escape the zombies.
On his way upstairs, Asher walked into Holly Alto.

Asher: Heh. Well. This is awkward. Sorry.
Holly: Hello.
Asher: Hi.
I think... we may have found her.
To finish up, here's a section I like to call 'what them crazy townies are doing'. My simself and her fiance couldn't figure out how the condom worked, and are expecting a baby! So they had a quickie wedding to make the poor thing legal.
Mortimer and Bella are dating! This never happens in my Sunset Valley games, so round of applause for them. And in Kymberleigh 'The Skank' Fox's section...
She broke up with her fiance, Jake, aka the father of her second child, and moved on to Hank Goddard...
...aka the father of her third child! I changed his name from Tobias to Blade, just to be a bit more bogan-friendly. LOL. (Also I secretly like the name Blade. I'm not sure why. It's weird, eh?)
She broke up with Hank, although I missed the notification, and moved on to Thornton...
...but quickly passed him over for Cycl0n3 Sw0rd...
...only to go back to Hank. This is just... too funny. xD See you all next chapter!
