Looks like your family is safely hidden In a submarine or underground bunker…maybe cause they keep hearing those explosions in the night from all your iridium meteorites? Also Emily has substituted hanging out with thr stuffed Junimo since you’re too busy with your new found obsession with Journey of Prarie King. Are you out at the saloon playing that each night? Emily is like she used to love making clothes with me instead.
. I can’t figure that game out. I get killed before I can see any idea of which one is me and which one is the bad guy.
I did about 5 days of JotPK and burned out on SDV entirely, LOL. Just got back to playing it today after a break. Nothing bad but it's like I mentioned in another topic here: When I start Stardew up I don't have a plan nor do I remember what my plan was from the last time I played. So it's a mostly clean slate and that first day is all the basics, Check:
Crops
Coop
Barn
Ponds
Tappers
Greenhouse
Ginger
to see if anything needs anythinging. Mostly I can let it go though I'll harvest anything that's ready or Trees with 3 Fruit. And then Emily will come up with:
"Well you see dear, on rainy days when nobody else is at Ginger, I've been playing music for and chatting with this fishwoman who's not overly fixated on fashionable clothes."
...
The previous line is a thing which Farmer Bobbi was
about to blurt out but this day her brain, possibly only for reasons of laziness, decided that maybe not complicating things is a better way to exist. Saved by taking the easy way out. The time will come when Emily should know about her past and her true family but that time should include at a minimum more coffee and Bobbibrain being less surprised and more prepared.
Like years of more preparingness. Shouldn't rush important things.
...
However sometimes Farmer Bobbi's brain runs maybe too slowly and needs a slap on it's brainbutt, which is one of Emily's favorite things to do to encourage her wife to finish the things she starts with so many good intentions.
"C'mere you." Emily said smartly as she reached for Bobbi's hand, leading her over to the meditation spot. "Let's sit and chat awhile." Bobbi knows this means she's forgotten something but of course she doesn't know what. Every day's a new and fun experience when you don't remember stuff!
After settling her mind for a few minutes while Bobbi fidgeted only a little bit, Emily started, "Robin finished the store upgrade 2 days ago and I see you got it painted too so that's a great start." Yeah that's done!, Bobbi thinks. Emily continues, "we should get started on the inside then."
A short pause. "I'm wayyy ahead of you, I already got the wallpaper and carpet in there," Bobbi remembered at the last second. Of course she'd forgotten to tell Emily. OK or even consult her about it, but Emms was probably at the Saloon or something. Feeding the kids. Asleep because it was 12:50am when Bobbi finally remembered. All sorts of good reasons and one might even be the right one, but what she did was find the closest thing to Emily's room in the Catalog and paste that into the new building's interior.
It looked... probably perfectly fine for a store.
"Oh that's wonderful, dear" Emily brightened up. "The it's ready to start laying out all the locations and where things are gonna go." Emily hopped up, bouncing on her feet in a not very typical meditative stance. "Oooo and I had a great idea, I can sell some jewelry in a corner of the store if anyone's interested. I'll just leave it out and see if people are interested!"
"Whaddya think?"
She seemed very excited about this idea so all Bobbi could do was agree. As they walked back to the Farmhouse hand-in-hand, Bobbi's very slowly churning
stomach brain clunked into gear. "Iiii-- could sell all those extra rings I've found." A pause. "And even crafted."
Emily looked to the side at her wife. "You've been making rings and not telling me? Let's see those fingers." She raised Bobbi's hand in front of her face, comically close. "Nope these are the same ugly mashed-together ones you always wear for your cave monster friends. You can keep these." She licked Bobbi's hand and shoved it away, running up the steps into the house.
"Ewww gross!" Bobbi did her best Haley impression and ran in after Emily but she knew she'd never find her better half. Emily was a pro at blending into the house, making a game of seemingly materializing out of thin air to walk to bed at 10:00pm, too far away for Bobbi to notice or reach her in time. Bed was the designated safe zone with the game ending at 10pm and Bobbi had been "it" for about 7 weeks now. Sometimes Bobbi would play Journey of the Prairie King at the Saloon just to avoid the game and pretend it didn't bother her, but then Emily caught her passing time on the video game one Friday as Sam and Abby were gathered around, which just encouraged Emily more.
"I'm getting pretty good at JotPK you know," Bobbi said nonchalantly.
"Yeah, it's good for everyone to find their niche." Emily said with a wry smile. "Mine's in various places in our Farmhouse..." She finished and walked away to deliver Shane his sparkling water.
Waitiminute, does she mean... Bobbi thought after a few seconds. Once the smoke cleared, Bobbi went home to start the work in earnest. So far she's come up with this:
Still lots to do...
