Nova heads off to work and Lewis leaves a short time later.

Nova decides to alert the upper management about this potential problem.

(A/N: Since my husband is a programmer, I thought I’d let him decide since this work event is something he would be familiar with.)

Their reaction is not good.

(A/N: My husband laughed and said this is something EA would do themselves. So the game is definitely imitating life here 😆)

This lifestyle is right up Nova’s alley! In fact, both Techie and Sedentary are perfect choices for the Tech Guru career.

She has two other lifestyles in progress:

(A/N: Will have to think carefully about which one would suit Nova best. She is Outgoing but People Person seems like it would make it harder to achieve deeper friendships. Indoorsy could be okay but I wonder if her mood would take a dip if she went to festivals and outdoor events. Hmm … will need to think about this a bit more. 🤔)

The rushed project makes Nova angry.

Work tones are: Normal, Shift Paradigms, Socialize with Co-workers, Take it easy, Work Hard or Yell at Co-workers.

Nova yells for a bit (lowers work performance and anger) and then socializes (lowers work performance and increases social)(I consider this her apology for being an a-hole earlier) before working hard (increases work performance and stress levels).

She’s no longer angry and work is going well once more.

Her co-worker, Sergio Romeo, wonders if she’d like to join Paragons. After hearing about their purpose (be mean to Renegades, drink coffee and try on outfits), Nova decides it isn’t for her. Thanks for asking though.

The Techie lifestyle boosts work performance? Sweet!

This is a good spot for stopping this portion.
