ya damn kids
Jan. 5th, 2009 09:48 pmMy Virtual Villagers traumatized me earlier this evening. I had set the game running and quit it to do other stuff, something I don't usually do. When I fired it back up, I had just enough time to notice that my most elderly elder had died...right in the spot where the kids like to gather for games of tag.
...Yeah. All 20-odd of them. It was a very bad day to be Tuana.
There was no time to assign any adults to burial duty; I'd just have dropped them on a kid and triggered either story time or lessons, both of which take place in the same spot. I just sat there, horrified, until one of the adults waded into the commotion and brought out the remains. It didn't even occur to me until hours later that I could probably have picked up the little skeleton and moved it somewhere else. Anywhere else.
:shudder: Not letting it run while closed anymore. Like, ever.
