An update from Gloria's world (cobble-stoneized Moonlight Falls)). Snicker, the old family horse who recently left with the Reaper, returned as a ghost. For most of the night he stood around his grave in the back corner of the lot. Unfortunately before dawn he decided to make his presence known to everyone.

He went into the barn and started haunting one of the stalls, practically making the door come off its hinges. The living horses became spooked, broke out of their stalls and ran around the paddock with the Panic moodlet. They all needed to be calmed down. The human members of the family and the dog didn't seem all that thrilled to see Snicker's ghost hanging around either. The only one who didn't seem to care was Jasper the family cat.
I think they were all relieved when the ghost suddenly disappeared. Since Snicker's visit was so bothersome to the household, I had them buy a tiny lot a short distance down the road for them to use as a pet cemetery. I moved Snicker's gravestone and flowers there, put an iron fence around it and added a gate that only household members (living ones that is) can use. Now if Snicker comes back he should be confined to the smaller lot and won't be spooking the horses. The new foal has the Nervous trait so she easily gets upset even on the best of days. She doesn't need the ghost of her sire rattling the stall doors.
In other news regarding the Moonlight Falls community; Robin and Allison, who have been woohooing with each other since they became teenagers, have now gotten married, moved to a little starter house and are expecting their first child.
James is now moved into his own home with his own pets because his parents are now expecting their fifth child and their house is at the point of overflowing. I think James is glad for the peace and quiet.
So the only one of the four characters who is still living at home since becoming a young adult is Gloria, and she is living in a small apartment over the barn. I've held off moving her to her own place because I wanted to see if she gets a wish to move out. So far there's been no such wish even though I know that, like James, she would enjoy the peace and quiet.
At this point I'm curious to see if the Flowers, Hunt, Woods, and Winters households ends up out-breeding the vanilla MF households, because with the way they all produced children they certainly seem intent on it.

Yes, he really does look good. He was a palomino when he was alive, so that filled in the part of Gloria's story for how she ended up with her palomino mare. It was so cute watching Snicker interact with Faith when she was a foal, even though in real life it's not a good idea to allow stallions around foals.
