Johnny has yet another teammate over, and Jean says hello to their neighbor Atom and his cat.

[lurking-lilibeth]

Young Atom unexpectedly receives a magic lamp. He's more interested in his toys and children's book at this point in his life, though. And Merrill leaves for college. It's unfortunate that she has to leave home so soon after her dad's passing, but maybe new place will be good for her.

Suddenly, the house feels much emptier.

Sadly, Saturday night Edward passes away. He goes peacefully, but it's still a huge hit for Opal and Merrill - they both loved him very much.

[lurking-lilibeth]

After he's done with his homework, Atom invites over his friend Nettle Greenman. They've become best friends since the previous rotation and have a ton of fun together.

Opal and Atom share a late night snack before bed.

The family starts the day early.

A little recap, since it's literally been years: here we have Edward and Opal, still happily married. Rick and Opal have repaired their damaged relationship over the years. Although Rick never became too close with his father, they at least get along - kinda like the cats.

Rick is married to Stella Terrano, and they have a son named Atom. Atom was born in the desert, but he actually loves the cold and is not afraid to say so.

Merrill is Edward's alien daughter. Her birth was the reason the family moved to Strangetown.

Now that Jason reached his retirement years, he has more time to pursue his other passion - fiction writing. His first novel - a romance about a man and a driad - doesn’t sell well, but he’s not giving up.

Nettle has been quite a sheltered child so far. She only knows one other kid, Atom Terrano, but she makes sure to call him every morning before school. And, of course, she eagerly awaits when her mom gets off work everyday - Daisy is giving it all to her career nowadays, either skilling or pulling long hours.

Meanwhile Ivan is making an effort to bond with his in-laws and Henry. It’s mostly happening over food, as he’s the one on cooking duty all the time.

And that’s day 25 for the Contrarys.

[lurking-lilibeth]

Rose is practicing her magic and Nettle discusses visiting outer space with Atom.

[lurking-lilibeth]

The trash compactor is broken and it’s very angry about it. Stella gets shocked, so a repair service is called - and a repairwoman also gets shoked, and then a fire starts. The repairwoman reacts quicker than both Edward and Rick despite being crisply electrocuted and brings little Atom to safety while the men panic. At least they look embarrassed about it. Hopefully the fire department will award the repairwoman for her bravery. :D

[lurking-lilibeth]

Merrill is a sweet girl. She’s very serious, maybe too much so, but she’s also kind.

[lurking-lilibeth]

Desert summer. Opal spends time with her work friend Regan Capp and an angry vampire runs past the house in the middle of the day (kicking the trashcan over is totally worth it).
