Nigmos



The day of Willow’s wedding drew near. After the disaster Olive’s wedding had been, followed by the DeMise brothers’ disappearance, the couple had felt it was only right to delay the celebrations a bit.



It had actually been Olive who insisted that her sister and Creon should get married so soon after the events. Both Willow and Creon felt that they should wait until Olive had recovered from the shock, but Olive had convinced them that the best way to help her would be a nice marriage between her sister and her neighbor that wouldn’t end with one of them being left at the altar.



She certainly put on a good show of enjoying herself at the wedding, dancing with Zog.



Willow and Creon got married without any trouble and surrounded by smiling faces.



The police had questioned the family after the brothers’ disappearance, but they seemed to have come to the conclusion that Earl E had run off with the mysterious person he had left Olive for and taken his brother with him.

Olive still spent most of her time at home, often playing the piano for hours on end. Having Willow out of her life meant she only had her parents to worry about. And eventually Olive would have to stop playing the part of the grieving bride and find herself a new husband and father for her future daughter. An opportunity like Earl would never come along again, but she would make sure to at least pass on her talent.



Beaker



The Beaker house had been remodeled to resemble a small castle now and it certainly looked very impressive as Bjorn strolled off to work each morning.



Bjorn and Gundrun had gotten married after college in a private ceremony, both disliking all the drama and attention that the bigger celebrations seemed to attract.

It had all happened so fast. Gundrun had graduated, gotten married and moved in with her husband’s family. This was what she had always wanted, but now she sometimes felt overwhelmed by all the change in her life.



Bjorn was very busy with his career these days. Gundrun, who worked from home on her artistry, sometimes felt like she barely saw him anymore. He was always working or studying for a promotion.



Her parents-in-law were very nice to her and helped Gundrun adjust to her new life. Canute taught her a lot about art theory, which had always been a fascination of his.



And Gertrude taught Gundrun everything about housekeeping and mediated between her and Bjorn when he was too busy with work to pay any attention to his wife.

Her marriage may not have been exactly what she had always dreamed of, but Gundrun was optimistic that she could enjoy her life like this.



The Beaker house is probably the one that ended up with the most changes. Nervous' cellar room doesn't exist (I had some issues placing the stairs and eventually gave up), there's a small workshop for Bjorn (and later, Loki) on top of the garage and it looks even more like an evil castle than the rest.

Thanks for the nice comments! I'm glad you enjoyed Olive's first marriage.

Coming up next, P.T. has an awesome idea!
