I wonder if I am logging alone, but then I’ve always been so late in updating that, that pretty much happens in all the hatches I’ve been in. All of my hatch group is still alive and we will be finishing in the real world shortly. As both my ID and my V4.5 are on generation 3, I think I’ll officially finish when generation 4 gets married.
==Vendredi le 24 août==
As I had a deadline that day, I worked intensely and my brood would no doubt have an average day of being housebound. Cutting out all distractions meant not taking pictures, however; I only remember that
after I took pictures of Omen’s matchmaker.
I then had a series of connections between Omen and Glitter who was his wife to be, as I had already taken pictures. First they had a balloon pumping contest which Omen was victorious in – although he had much more weight to throw around since his fiancée was still a teenager – and then a failed connection where he pumped balloons alone. They ended with an eating contest which Omen won, obviously. I checked their friendship entries to find they were at one face each, merely acquaintances.
Later I harassed Nemo when I forced him to eat a “yucky” bowl of rice. It is hilarious how he throws a fit that I want to give him much more @_@ You should have known better, Nemo, you should have known better.
Demo was still in limbo and I planned to unpause her later, as she was nearly on real time, but that never happened. Meeting the deadline, my awake tamas and I relaxed with the Gravity Falls finale. It had a pretty good ending that instead of being conclusive and tying up loose ends, it left the characters in the best circumstance possible all the while being realistic. Ending stories is an art and while the conclusion of events is a logical ending, or even giving an answer to what the characters did with the rest of their lives, endings should be just satisfactory (obviously I’m giving nobody writing advice with something as vague as that XD).
It was raining in Nemo’s world, the only record I have being in the window of his bedtime snap.
==Samedi le 25 août==
It was a relaxing day where my tamas apparently had some music-filled desk time while I logged the past days of this hatch group. At 4:15, Demo evolved into Maskutchi! She had really weird animations, animations so weird I’m surprised I haven’t heard people mention it. Just look at her eating animation; it’s bizarre. Along with that, she looks more like a bird or some penguin-like creature and her main sprite isn’t the main perspective her species is usually presented as. Interestingly, Demo’s discipline bar stayed empty even though on my P2, the equivalent Zuccitchi would have its discipline jump to half-way.
I took some snaps of Demo playing the game, showing her usual presentation and her characteristic backward head throwing. Obviously her sprites heavily influenced Oyajitchi, but on Oyajitchi they make some sense while for Maskutchi, it just looks crazy. Humorously, I have to wait for Demo to stop wiggling her hips before I saw what direction she chose in the game. That lags the game, but is amusing.
Demo roomed with Sotilde in my two-tama stand during meals. At 7:50 Demo beeped for discipline, unsurprising considering Maskutchi can evolve into the secret character. Not much happened with Omen or Nemo on this day. Around 11, Demo beeped at me and was fast asleep under a blanket – which if I didn’t know any better, I would call a box because the sprite wasn’t designed that well (it is more clear in other illustrations).
==Dimanche le 26 août==
I took Demo to church with me and she got her second discipline during the service. I just happened to check her and find that her attention icon was lit. On the way back, since I had my 2DS I took a picture of Demo in my customary tama-case, with her companion Sotilde.
At home, my hatch group had a pretty relaxing time as I spent time logging, like yesterday. Around 6:33, Demo beeped again for discipline and I “yelled” at her, bringing her meter up to 75%. Everybody was taken upstairs for a game of Gin Rummy with my parents (it’s a
card game, in case the name sounds misleading). That didn’t go too well as we half remembered the rules and played till someone got the ultimate game-stopping hand, instead of the more interesting mode where people pit their hands against each other. I tried to up Nemo’s happiness in between hands by playing the slot machine, which slowed down the game and made my father complain. My mother wanted to leave and accused me of messing up my hand, which isn’t an unusual comment from her. We eventually stopped for dinner.
Around 8:40, I took Nemo to the airport location which was accessible to him as his happiness meter was high enough.
That "OK !!" was the only thing I understood XD
I also took him to the photo shop to get his picture taken. I do this for all my ID tamas as a way to remember them. And that was the last highlight of the day.
==Lundi le 27 août==
Nothing much happened on this day besides I worried about Demo’s final discipline and starting the next generation on the others. I think Omen’s wife to be evolved that day into Bill. That is a female Bill name Glitter (Glitr). Lots of connections were in their futures. I had ESL, the last for a little bit, and paused everyone around 4:30. When I got back home, I left them paused over night.
==Lundi le 28 août==
My brood spent most of the day paused and around 11:30 p.m. I unpaused Omen and Demo. Omen speedily when to bed while Nemo was left on pause as I could very well unpause him at the right time the next day. I imagined the paused hours don’t build up to 24 hours but rather roll over back to the start again.
