Salem: Chapter 4.4 "Settling In"

Hello finally once again! I've been on holiday break for almost three weeks now; wow am I lazy. Sorry about that. Hopefully I can get out a few more chapters before I return to school.

Last time with the Diffys, Salem and Maura were married! This time...

The Diffys are moving to a new house.

 This is Serenity, built by Curtis Paradis (find it here)

 When Maura moved in, she brought her cat, Gilbert, with her. I can go cat crazy again?

Salem: just moved in. #bare #stillawesome #party #byob

 Soccer is fun.

 Until you figure out that you suck at it.
Salem: "I give up. Soccer is dumb."
Sore loser.

 I like having a cat in the house again.

 Well I can see why you look so grumpy. XD
Salem: "Grr."

 The Diffys have a pool now, which is extra nice in the desert.

 Maura: "Enough swimming. Must read now."
I think Maura is a secret bookworm. What? You don't know any of her traits yet? Well here are her stats: Maura is a mean-spirited yet good genius who is also artistically clumsy. Her favorite color is sea foam. Her LTW was to be a World Renowned Surgeon, but I eventually used lifetime rewards to change it to Perfect Mind, Perfect Body.

 Think he's had enough sleep?
Maura: "I'm going to find out. Saaaaalem!"

 Maura: "Had a nice nap?"
Salem: "Definitely. I feel refreshed."

 Salem: "How do you like the house?"
Maura: "It's great! We just need to furnish it."

 Small talk over. I'll just...be going now.

 Cinnamon Bun: "Soccer is awesome!"

 I'm watching you, Gilbert.

 Maura's favorite music is country.
Maura: "Sweet thiiiiing!"

 I think her dancing is cute.

Emily: "I'm watching you, Gilbert."

 I guess Gilbert was good since Emily threw him a little treat.

 Maura quit her job at the hospital to work at the day spa.
Maura: "If I'm going to understand the town I've got to work my way from the bottom. This will help me later when I buy the place!"

 Lakeshia: "Wow, I didn't know you were so mean, Maura!"
Maura: "I'm not mean, I'm honest!"

 Lakeshia: "Honest? I could do without so much honesty, then."
Maura: "Look, I don't even remember how this started, so I'm going to walk away now."

 Maura: "Woo, that is one big rock on my finger!"
I leave you alone and you start picking fights...

 The other Diffys joined Maura at the festival. Emily is getting good at roller skating.

 Now pie!

 Maura: "I won?"
Emily: *choke*

 Emily: "Ugh, I don't think that was really worth it."

 Emily: "Oh no...pie sneeze..."

 Salem: "Hmm."

 I'm not sure if pie kisses would be disgusting or awesome...

 Oh! Emily's birthday.

 Emily: "Do I still look good?"
Cinnamon Bun: "Gorgeous as always, Emily."

 This is how Gilbert catches a guinea pig.

 A guinea pig that had bird feathers stuck to it?
Gilbert: "Don't you worry about where the feather came from."

Cinnamon Bun: "My favorite! Does this mean you like me?"
Of course I do, C.B. Even though it seems like I'm neglecting you lately.

Next time: Emily will go in search of a ghostly presence.

Also, I kind of want to start adding chapter titles. Thoughts about this? How do you guys come up with titles? Mine might end up being random sometimes.
