[M]om - Last Hurrah [TEXT][Cancelled]

>Getting the notails to imprint seems to be the most prominent course of action.

>Give the babies sticks and have them rewarded if they attack a practice target of some sort.

>Make them learn about... Uh.. Love!
>Or about Eukaryote and messed up creatures born every day because there's evofluid in the air, and you'll grow a fistlung eventually if u breath too much or a cool mutation... Probally TWO fistlungs are cool, right?

As you prepare to finish off your shift you head off to the offices next door and design three new learning programs.

SpoilerShow

Baby's First Combat Practice
- A program that is done via virtualization on the baby's mask
Love, and you
- A program that teaches about affection and kindness
Fistlungs and more
- A lesson teaches the mutagenic nature of Eukaryote and how life is doomed to die of painful mutations

You then feel a bit of indecisiveness over what to do next, but know for sure that you'll be keeping the notail imprinting program. The fourth slot bothers you, but you decide to roll a d12 around a few times, and end up getting the 'Fistlungs and more' enough time to put it in.
You wonder what affect that will have on all the newborns....

You decide not to change anything about the repair plans, work schedules, or anything else, and head to bed.
Monday: you wake up you are talked to by a passing G class, and it seems to be the same one from the other day.

Did you know?:
At any time you can pull up the layout of a building by specifically trying to.

Where the babies are kept, duh 8)
2 - The Offices

5 - Auxillary Storage

11 - Landing Zone
If it had been built this is where ships would land 8)
12 - Shield Generator
When it's finished this will be your first major line of defense 8)

After familiarizing yourself with the layout of the village you dust the your eyes and get to work.

At the start of your shift you receive a notif the shield is running, and watch the test-run's flying colors. More of a literal statement as you watch it crest over the village.
The work goes slowly as the babies are socialized. A nice warm hug, encouragement, and lotsa paps. Some try to crawl all over you and it's adorable until you pry them off.
During lunch Auxillary Storage 1 is fully repaired, and can now be accessed. Until you open it up there's no official record of what's inside though..
The second half of the babies goes fairly the same. You remember soon enough you'll have to actually pay attention to their development. Until then they're all so adorable.
Dinner goes well and you briefly socialize the repair crew.
Idle time is relaxing and you get to experience the siren tests. All the babies wake up and need to be soothed! You yawn as you finish, and every baby starts to yawn like such good ducklings. You take note the alarm system warns of intruders, megafauna, and if it's manually set off by a villager the nearby authorities will be called as backup.

You're in bed when your phone lights up with mail!

Serpentes ClinicShow

Hello M9113,
This is a reminder of your antennae replacement procedure appointment tomorrow at 9a. Please do not be late.
Check your email for confirmation from M4 to be sure, as otherwise this has been an error.
(this is an automated message do not reply)

M4 MessageShow

Hello dearest M9113,
Tomorrow you'll get your new antennae so you can do your job with the standards you're required to. You'll get an email later today from the S class performing your procedure. It'll only take a day, and don't worry any duties you are required to do will be handled by a substitute for the day.
(this is an automated message do not reply)

You expected this a bit later on, but a pleasant surprise all the more. You tuck into the couch in the adult dorms and sleep.

Tuesday: Awaking to Freya v 572 talking about an intruder, meeting your substitute, driving off to Serpentes...
At the clinic it blends: the S-class, the procedure, the bedrest, the trip back.
You barely hear anyone as you return and remember that your new antennae are slowly growing. It almost feels like something is gnawing at your brain, but you breath easy knowing everything is on track.
After dinner Main Storage 1 is complete, but like AU1 you don't know what is inside.
The crew is packing up and finishing the last repairs on the kitchen. You know the adult dorms have the important parts of a working kitchen along with a freezer and pantry after.

Wednesday: you check your antennae to find nearly the full length and sigh in relief. It's weird getting adjusted to the new shape though.
Freya's report is normal, and you're getting used to her giving you 'gifts'.
The news is the same as ever save for reports about a failed H class product, but it's not important as you skim the baby stats.
Today is the first playpen day, and you shufle the first half of the babies into the playpen and watch them hug each other and crawl about. Freya guards them as you prepare lunch in the building's breakroom.
The rest of the day passes normally.

Thursday passes normally.

Friday: passes normally, but Freya v572 is insistent that she groom you. When you tell her to groom Archie instead she says she already did that, and that she deposited the thorns she managed to remove today into Aux1.
Eventually you realize she won't be distracted and you accept. She meticulously preens your hair, removes lint fron your outfit, and dusts your mask.

Saturday passes normally.

Sunday begins normally.
At 8p the first shipment of rations and supplies arrives.
The T class inspects the premises to also sure you didn't 'somehow make things worse $vv$' while the H class keeps trying to offer you a tomato in these trying times.
After a bit the T class relents and affirms you as a valid village that will receive it's weekly stipend. The H class says he just likes to feel important, and sneaks you a blunt while they aren't looking.

The T class informs you can even look into changing around what your weekly shipment is, and that anything needed outside of the sunday shipment will be purchasable online. You could check that out online.
The rest of the day is spent arranging your bedroom, and you know you'll sleep better in your bed.
