The second Metropolis hatched, she ran straight for the kitchen and emptied an entire pot of honey! She got a slice of cheese to go with it, then ran to the carrot garden to do her minutely lawnmowing, stopping to play with the top while she waited for the carrots to grow back. She's completely fascinated with the water pump.
She was the only one enjoying the sunshine, though, for the boys had all gone for the elevator instead and were moseying about on the upper levels. At least they were learning English...
...all of the boys except for Isshoku, who had snatched up the pot of coffee when I wasn't looking and, beverage in hand, went to raid the fridge! He sorted through it until he found himself a pot of honey and ran off with it, leaving the coffee behind.
I checked back up on the other males, who were still where I left them. Remry was chasing a ball back and forth while Kaito and Pyro took a nap...but Energy had completely disappeared!
I quickly located him; he had taken the teleporter and was proudly holding what appeared to be a flower in his hand. He started helping himself to the lemon garden after that, so I just let him be.
Back in the kitchen, Metropolis had finally taken a nap, curling up beside a rather lethargic Isshoku. Only moments earlier, they'd all been having a little "we've just discovered the fridge; quick, milk it for all it's worth before somebody catches us" party.
After a moment of rest, they headed back to the outdoors, where Pyro, Remry, and Metropolis played the delightful Nornish game of "find a carrot and toss it back and forth before someone eats it". Metropolis won and promptly emptied the carrot garden.
