She and Tanner still tried to make babies so I still had that to hold on to. They stuck together for a while and ate and seemed pretty happy so I felt safe leaving them alone for a little while.

bandicam 2013-06-16 22-58-47-964I took this chance to check on the grendel and found that he was starving and bored but that he still seemed content to rest on the island. It turned out he was stuck so I exported him and imported him back into the game to find that he was about to pass away anyway. Poor guy. :C

bandicam 2013-06-16 23-04-21-439Naturally, I took this opportunity to introduce Grentilda, a C1 Grendel based on my first creatchi, Grentilda at CCaves.com. She was graciously created by Grendel Man.

Once she was situated, I left her on her own. Grendels seem to do a much better job of taking care of themselves than norns, after all. Speaking of, when I returned to them, they’d stopped eating and Tanner’s health dropped into the upper 60s. I had to separate them as far as sending Valerie to the island before Tanner would finally eat something. Unfortunately, separation meant they were less likely to make another baby. We’ll see how things turn out, though.

Goodness do I hate seeing Valerie micronapping.

I forced a lot of food into her belly and she finally had a restful sleep. Her health still steadily dropped and I braced myself for the worse. 72, 69, 61… It just kept going down.

Suddenly, and out of nowhere, her status flicked back to healthy and her health ticked up to 62%. It didn’t take long for her health to rise back up to 76% and I felt comfortable leaving her on her own again.

bandicam 2013-06-09 22-14-57-108I lead them to each other and now I have an egg on the way. Relax, that 45 there changed to a 1 after I got the pregnancy notification.

With Valerie finally well and with her egg on the way, I could relax a little. Her health dropped down to 60 again because she wouldn’t eat, but at least she wasn’t being attacked by bacteria. Off to check on our grendel!

As Valerie laid her red and yellow egg, our grendel friend stared off into blue sky. I wasn’t sure what he was thinking about but one thing’s certain. This Grendel knows how to relax.

Valerie had another trick up her sleeve to get me panicking again. After she laid her egg, she continued to refuse to eat. Her health droped to 47% as I strugged to get her to eat anything. No matter what, she wouldn’t comply.

I decided to try something new. First, I fed her a Morning Glory from the Health Kit and suddenly, she was eating everything in sight. Maybe she needed something new to try? In any case, she was finally well again and her health had reached a safe 76%.

Would it be smooth sailing from here? Tanner and Valerie both were 6 hours old by now and still had a little ways to go before they could die of old age. Stay tuned!

I know, I know. It’s been a while. Again.

bandicam 2013-05-30 22-58-16-456Be that as it may, Valerie has finally gotten her first real rest in a long time. After her nap, it was time to start pleading with her to eat something. As always, it was a serious problem. Her health was down to 68% and no matter what, I couldn’t seem to get her to eat.

Tanner, thankfully, gave me no such stress. He wouldn’t eat, either, but his health sat at a comfortable 76%.

Eventually, I got Valerie to eat and she set off, exploring Albia once again.

bandicam 2013-05-30 23-06-50-840That is, until she got sick.

It figures that as soon as I got her healthy again, she would get sick. Despite her happy smile, I was worried that Antigen 0 would harm her uterus, keeping me away from the eggs I desired so badly.

I got her to eat one carrot but she kept spinning and spinning. I felt helpless trying to make this sick norn healthy again. I did eventually get her to take a bite of a lemon and her health jumped a respectable 8%. It kept rising for a little while as she spun, all the way up to a nice, safe, 76%. Eventually, she would get better but it was still a waiting game.

I finally got fed up with the tiny screen I was using and just… wow.

I can see everything.

My C3/DS world window still needs to stay pretty small, though. Turns out the game lags harder than usual on this little laptop when I try to make the game bigger than its default size. Oh well.
