I have this plotline where I have a middle-aged female sim who is a Mad Scientist in the science career. She's a knowledge sim with a good number of nice points. However, she's very dedicated to her scientific research which focuses on the cloning of sims.

She has an assistant whom she took in maybe ten years before. This assistant is a woman who has a boyfriend.

The scientist recently took in a troubled young man because she was sympathetic to his plight. She thought he could be useful--she has grown some babies but neither she nor her assistant want to bother with the details of diapers (nappies) or feeding. Nor do they want nannies blundering around the place.

Now, the young man has rolled a Want to fall in love. This is what I'm sticking on now. It would be just a subplot but I'm not sure if he should either a) fall in love with the scientist who's more of a mother figure, b) fall in love with the assistant, or c) fall in love with someone outside the household. Which seems least cliched?

I have free will on but no ACR, and so far, the only autonomous flirt that ever happened was when the boyfriend guy came by and flirted with the scientist's assistant.
