So far, things were playing out as they had before. Percy still had trouble eating and insisted on trying to eat my hand and certain doors, even with an apple in hand. Everyone else was pretty quiet. Besides some regular maintenance, there wasn’t much going on as I did my rounds.
I did have the idea to use a heater in the Norn Terrarium, though! The boys seemed a lot happier since they stopped complaining of being cold. Instead, they started saying they felt quite cozy! How lovely.
Nothing was going on with Percy, unfortunately. For a while, he just held a gadget in his hand and repeated “Get Gadget”. I was starting to wonder how the poor guy passed the IQ test. I moved on to check on the others and there was some friendly kissing. The small dears were too young to breed, after all.
I installed Grendel Man’s Offline Warp Portals and before long the little ones were starting to explore the rest of the world. Percy and Jane meanwhile were becoming close friends. I wondered if they would become mates when they got older but I hoped their little ones wouldn’t need a heater like Geoffrey and William. All three of the boys share the coldness gene.
Speaking of William, when I was doing my rounds, I caught him wandering the halls of the Shee Ark. He passed some of the doors but seemed most interested in pacing in front of the Ettin Desert door. He eventually took a nap.
Finally, at 47 minutes old, Jane became pregnant with Geoffrey’s baby.
She laid this tiny egg and it was automatically submerged to prevent it from hatching. Curious, I wondered if I could encourage the other girls to become mothers.
