Sagehen Mesa - Part 6 - Time-out While the Overlord Rants at Her Pixel People

 Sagehen Mesa - Part 6 - Time-out While the Overseer Rants at Her Pixel People

You people are killing me! Rarely do I have a storyline in mind for pixel people, but this time I let you all have the floor and tell the reader who you are in your own worlds. But then you start behaving irrationally!

My Gripe with Josie Williams

Does EVERYONE need to have a love interest? Can't some of you, especially those who have lived a long and fulfilling life, just kick back and recognize your remaining years are for you to live without the burdens of responsibility for others and constant compromising? I'm looking at YOU Josie!

For a woman who presented herself as being well-grounded and content with her life, having a purpose (the church), having experienced a long and loving relationship with your mate (Joe), and being surrounded by a loving family and good friends, both young and old, why are you so desperate for a man in your life? Why do I have to step in and cheat your relationships with men young enough to be your grandsons back from romantic to friendship? Why did you try to steal your granddaughter's potential boyfriend, and why, why, why would you take up with that inappropriate slob Ben Culpepper?



Do you really want to spend the rest of your days cleaning up after the bum? Do you really want to be mortified by his behavior and have the town connect your reputation with his? How am I going to explain this to the reader? Did he trick you? Did he swipe a love potion from Dr. Ellen's potion shelf? Dr. Ellen wouldn't make such a potion - at least I don't think she would. Maybe she would for marital counseling purposes. I'll have to think on that. Is there even such a thing as a  love potion? There's a potent friendship potion. There's a flirty drink you can get at a bar that give a temporary mood. Maybe he combined the two? Did he slip you some Buzzberry? (I don't even know what that one does for sure. I'll have to have someone try it.) I think your family needs to have an intervention and make an appointment for you with Dr. Ellen. This is giving Stepford Wives vibes. 

My Frustration with Hannah's Career Choices

As for you Hannah, you would make such a cute little school teacher. You've got the nurturing trait for crying out loud. Yet unless I'm controlling you, you go running off to join the athletic or criminal career. Even if you are hanging out with Anton, playing the bass, and I CAN SEE YOU DOING THIS, I get notifications that you've switched professions. 


(This is when I got the notification that after sending her here to join the teaching profession for the 3rd of 4th time, that yet again, she joined the athletic career. At this point I gave up and let her have her way.)

I sympathize with you - I really do. I was a teacher for several years and I get it. Teacher burnout is real and beginning teachers usually only last a couple years. But it hasn't been a couple years yet - at least not by my estimation. So be it. You can join the athletic career - but not the criminal career - it doesn't suit you at all. 

Kellee Hirsh Broke My Game!

My game crashed, and I blame you, Kellee Hirsh! Despite doing all I know to do to make sure elders only dated elders, Chuck Culpepper and you started seeing each other and cohabitating  It wasn't so bad as the Ben Culpepper/Hannah Baum disaster that I managed to write myself out of - you were at least an adult and not a young adult - but I still didn't like it. However, you and Chuck had some common interests, so I thought I'd be clever and simply age you up to an elder and let it be.  Then you pulled this stunt!


Whose baby was it? Was it Chuck's? I was curious to see if you would have the baby. Before I could use Nraas to verify the pregnancy and see who the father was, the game crashed and I lost some progress.

So I had to go back and lurk outside the school building for you to get off work, nab you, check to make sure you weren't pregnant yet, age you up, and give you a makeover to make you look as close as I could to how I remembered you. You were seeing Chuck, but he hadn't moved in with you yet, so it gave me the chance to throw you a wedding first. So all's well that ends well I guess. I admit this may have been my fault, but how was I to know? 

Now that I got that off my chest, let's see what other mayhem the town of Sagehen Mesa has for me.
