Part 62: Ep. 45: So, Flowers, Then

I'm pretty sure Wolfah would handle everything better.

: Last time on MySims Agents: Destinite turns to... fortunite! Fortunite turns to... Crown of Nightmares! ... that doesn't scan so well.

Sam barely gets in the door before Elmira texts him. Indignantly. But we ignore her, because:





Sam and Evelyn get busy researching fortunite in the S.P.A.'s little lobby library, while Buddy regales Jenny with the tales of our exploits.

: Wow! Do you really think you guys can find the original crystal?

: I don't know how we'll do it, but Sam will find a way.

And just then...



: That's great, Evelyn. What does it say?

: Not much, but Dad associates the crystal with a man named Cyrus Boudreaux. Maybe this Cyrus worked with my dad on the Nightmare Crown!

: Sounds like a good place to start.

Sam spins around.



: Already looking him up on the internet.

: Way to go, Jenny!







Sam and Evelyn run over to join the conversation.

: What?!

: Yeah, it just happened. Now his niece, Zoe, is holding a dinner party at the Boudreaux mansion.

: Is it really the appropriate time for a dinner party?





Buddy runs over to read over Jenny's shoulder.

: Great work, Jenny! When is the will reading? Where do we go?

: No idea. It's by invitation only, so it doesn't list the time or location.

Evelyn is crushed.

: No! So close, and now another dead end...





: I think she does. Why?

: Well, according to this article, one of the people on the guest list is Ms. Violet Nightshade.

: That is Poppy's sister! If she's going, maybe Poppy received an invitation as well.

: Let's go ask her!

The conversation breaks up as everybody starts scrambling to get ready. Sam eases over to Evelyn.

: Evelyn, you look a little worried.



: I'm sure Poppy will help us out, Evelyn.

: I hope so, we need that invitation if we are going to stay ahead of Morcubus!

Sam definitely needs to change out of his tough-private-dick trenchcoat before we go anywhere, so he heads for the Derobenator. Buddy falls in beside him.

: Hey Buddy!

: Hey pal! I'm sure going to miss Cyrus Boudreaux.

: Buddy! You've never even heard of him before today.

: Yeah pal, but I bet he was a great guy. We could have played mahjong together!

Underimpressed, Sam excuses himself and finally remembers to check in with Roxie.

: Hello Roxie, how are you?



Sam is still trying to think of a way to respond to that when BEEP BEEP



Sam stares at his phone for a while, then taps out "Is this a joke?" and sends it. Then he recalls that he's talking about Walker, here, and follows that up with "High-yield-explosive-topping pizza, definitely."



Not five minutes later we discover that Sam's hunch was right on the money. High-yield-explosive pizza: does what it says on the box.







Morcufront. Morcufront. I ask you. Anyway, hooray, we've busted a chain of home-delivery weapons dealers!

: I need a mission debriefing. What was the result?

: Man, I really want a pizza now. Do you think that sincel the mission was a success, Ewan would order us all pizza?

Ewan? Who's... holy crap, is that Walker's first name?! Sadly, we don't get pizza. We do, however, get another dispatch mission and some ninja outfits. That'll do.



Sam likes the ninja outfit! As well he might.



And we scored this Morcucorp cap from the industrial district. Woo.





Also, here's our new disco-ball trophy!

With our save file sitting pretty at nine hours and thirty seconds, we are now just about halfway through MySims Agents! The upcoming section is probably the coolest part of the entire game--but! The dispatch missions are piling up. And they're not going to stop coming. Therefore, it is time for the Dispatch Mission Halftime Blitz. Get those ballots ready, folks, because here we go!



: ... Parade! I need you to find out who did it, and where they put it!

Poppy will probably be more inclined to help us if we help her first. Therefore, first up, we're going to go out there and find her stolen float. She needs Charismatic agents to ask around about it without offending anybody, and Paranormal agents to... uh... scan for flowers with their tricorders.

Put together the usual team of (3) agents from the list: Travis, Leaf, Roger, Rosalyn, Vic, Nova, Beebee, Preston, Wolfah, Renee, Elmira, Pinky, Annie.
You can always check their stats in the second post in this thread, just underneath the OP.

Voting will remain open for about twenty-four hours!
