Well, we&#8217;d just have to wait and find out. In the meantime, the babies were actually eating seeds and roots and fiddling with the dispensors. They had instincts to push them, but they also experimented with pulling them, which didn&#8217;t produce any result. A pleasant side effect to this fiddling was that norns were also pressing the drink dispensor, so portable drinks were always available. How handy!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/kezune.com\/sim\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/bandicam-2015-03-05-11-29-39-818-copy.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-3405\" src=\"http:\/\/kezune.com\/sim\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/bandicam-2015-03-05-11-29-39-818-copy.png\" alt=\"bandicam 2015-03-05 11-29-39-818 copy\" width=\"118\" height=\"146\" \/><\/a>Eventually, the norns started to crowd around each other. I managed to separate Dodger from the group and I tried to lure him over to the second learning computer. Getting one over there would be a good start in getting them all to wander, but Dodger basically trapped the lift by falling asleep right in front of it. When he did finally wake up, he must have been very thirsty, because he stood in front of the water fountain for a while and drank. Good thing, too! This is exactly the kind of behavior I was looking for in a thirsty norn.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/kezune.com\/sim\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/bandicam-2015-03-05-11-38-54-954-copy.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3406\" src=\"http:\/\/kezune.com\/sim\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/bandicam-2015-03-05-11-38-54-954-copy.png\" alt=\"bandicam 2015-03-05 11-38-54-954 copy\" width=\"525\" height=\"154\" srcset=\"http:\/\/kezune.com\/sim\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/bandicam-2015-03-05-11-38-54-954-copy.png 525w, http:\/\/kezune.com\/sim\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/bandicam-2015-03-05-11-38-54-954-copy-300x88.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/a>It took some doing, but I finally lured everyone down to the second computer and brought their dispensors with them. I wasn&#8217;t really expecting everyone to learn their words completely, but this would at least make it easier to communicate with me and with each other. Besides, if one norn didn&#8217;t learn a word, chances are, the others could teach it.<\/p>\n<p>Our youngest, Dodger, was now 22 minutes old and our oldest, Isabelle, was finally getting to be breeding age. Unfortunately, she became ill! With a little alone time, she healed on her own. With no science kit, I wasn&#8217;t able to find out what was wrong, but I&#8217;m glad she got better.
