#sim: Nandina Riesling

[gloomyclauds]

Nandina: What is going on?

Nandina: Uh? ALIENS?!

She was right, they are real 🥲

[gloomyclauds]

Aubergine: What is it boy?

Aubergine: W H A T ?!

Nandina: ORION! What are you doing outside?! Aubergine: DINA?

Aubergine: Hey! DINA!! Aubergine: What is going on?!

[gloomyclauds]

Merengue has finally aged up, and shall reign as the queen of silly faces 🤪

[gloomyclauds]

We hatched our first baby chick which I named Butter 😊

[gloomyclauds]

Papaya: So everything's well? Nandina: Yeah!

Papaya: I should get going. Nandina: Papaya, wait!

Nandina: What happens after the baby comes?

Nandina: I promise, I haven't been seeing him, and I won't see him ever again! It's really over! Papaya: I'll be there.

Nandina: But us? Will we be together? Papaya: *sigh* I don't know.

[gloomyclauds]

Nandina: I'm done. Papaya: What? Nandina: Either you admit you have a problem, and work to get better, or you leave. Papaya: Leave?!

Nandina: You don't help me with anything! All you do is leave for work and drink!

Papaya: You think you can raise him alone? Nandina: I've been doing it so far! Papaya: *scoff*

Papaya: I need a drink. Nandina: You can't be serious?! I feel like I don't even know you anymore!

With the baby born, Papaya has found himself practically living with Dina. It didn't make sense to keep her waiting for an answer, he had to be there. For her, and for their baby, even if he's still hurt. Time will heal his wounds... well, at least he hopes so.

Dina woke up the next morning feeling pretty sick. A pregnancy test confirmed her worries...

Nandina: Oh no...

Nandina: Who's the father?!

[gloomyclauds]

Nandina spent most of her night sketching (paint still feels a bit daunting), and woke up exhausted... What a surprise!

At least she has a farm now! Meaning, we have ingredients to cook, finally 🥲

[gloomyclauds]

Nandina: What are you doing?

Nandina: No way! You had your shot and you blew it.

Aubergine: I'm sorry.

Aubergine: I missed you.

Nandina: I missed you too.

[gloomyclauds]

Papaya: You slept with him?! Nandina: It was one time! I swear, it's over!

Papaya: Sure, cause ending it always seems to work with you two. Nandina: I mean it this time!

Papaya: You could've told me, instead you just led me on! What were you going to do if the baby turns out to be his?

Nandina: I know, I should've told you, but I was scared, and you were the only one I had.

Papaya: Do you even like me? Nandina: Of course I do!

Papaya: Or were you using me 'cause you were lonely? Nandina: No!

Papaya: If you did you wouldn't have hurt me like this.

Nandina: I'm sorry.

Papaya: Don't touch me.

Nandina: Paya. Papaya: I need to be alone.

[gloomyclauds]

Nandina: You know what he did? When he first went outside? He found Milky and gave her a hug.

Nandina: I can't keep him inside, and I cannot be mad at him for wanting to do so. If you can, be my guest. I'm tired.

Papaya: Okay. We'll move.

Nandina: You sure? Papaya: It's for the best.

[gloomyclauds]

Aubergine: I didn't think I'd ever see you again. Nandina: I thought you'd be angry to see me. Aubergine: What? No, It's good to see you again… Nandina: I missed you.

Aubergine: What are you doing?!

Aubergine: Nandina Riesling, you are under arrest! Nandina: … Ah, what?

[gloomyclauds]

Papaya: DINA?! Nandina: Yeah? Papaya: He started to get his color!

Nandina: Already? WHAT?!

Nandina: He's… purple?!

[gloomyclauds]

Aubergine: Can i see him? Papaya: No. Aubergine: I wasn't talking to you. Nandina: No. You can't.

Aubergine: What? Nandina: Just leave. Aubergine: You can't do this! I have rights!

Papaya: LET GO OF HER! Nandina: PAPAYA STOP! That's enough!

Papaya: Get out of here.

This fight was not in the script 😬 I guess because they're enemies, it's just more likely that they'll get into physical fights? I was shocked when he started hitting her. There's no redemption for you now Gene... you suck.

Orion tried his first baby food! It might be Papaya, but it tastes a lot better than his dad’s finger 😂 He might need to double check though, you know, just to be sure.
