Work on naming the BaCC continues, and I've narrowed it down to *Something* Hollow. Any suggestions?

Autumn has arrived for the little settlement, and preparations for winter are in full swing. There's foodstores to be stocked, walls and roofs to be insulated, and work has started on protecting the new generator and water purifyer from the frosts. Felix has his hands full trying to organise all this activity; making sure Rose is still up for her duties as a mechanic, what with the baby, helping Myra with dividing her produce fairly over the households, explaining to Arthur that he has to stop arresting all the new visitors to the town (even though said visitors think it's a hoot and have a great time playing along with it) and keeping Davin out of everybody's hair.

Oh, and he has his own growing family to take care of as well.






The Fenwick house got a hasty remodel before winter. (I made up an additional rule that during winter, no houses can be built or re-modelled.) The structure got a second floor, though right now it's more of a glorified attic, with Felix and Lily's bedroom still being downstairs.
I only just realised the second floor windows on the front are placed the wrong way around. Woops.



Since Lily got pregnant, Felix hasn't left her side. He constantly follows her around for kisses and hugs, and *has* to be at least in the same room as her. At night, when she's sleeping and he's all wolved out, he relaxes on the bed to keep her company. I guess he likes to watch over her now she's carrying his child :)



Lily still rolls random skill wants. She's tried out Creativity for a while, then moved to Cooking, and her latest skill of choice is Charisma. Come to think of it, those are the skills needed for the Culinary career, no? Are you trying to tell me something Lils?



Felix trying out the little toy robot that Nate gave to him last week. Lily is still working on her pottery, and has rolled the want to get a golden Pottery badge. 



Felix: "Whoa Nelly!"

These are the risks you take when you use anything crafted by Teddy Babbling.



Felix: "Can I put you on hold for a second? I think my wife's about to give birth."



The newest addition to the village is a baby girl! She's got Felix' hair and eye colour. I've decided that all of Felix' descendants will get a name starting with F, to keep up the alliteration. And the Lovelace sisters have got a thing for flower names, so this little one is named Flora :)



Flora seems to think it's completely normal that her daddy's a hairy monster.



You better not scratch your daughter's face with those whiskers of yours, Felix. Him being a werewolf comes in *really* handy now the Fenwicks have a child to raise. As he's up during the night already anyway, Lily never has to get up to take care of dirty nappies or hungry tummies.



Flora's little bed gets moved into the second floor/attic, so Lily can keep an eye on her while she works on her pots and vases during the day.



Does anyone know if there's a replacement for the baby bottles that ISN'T toxic green? It just looks like Lily's feeding poor Flora cucumber juice, or something.



Birthday time! We await the emerging of genetics with bated breath...



Here's Flora as a toddler. I loved the hair she grew up into, so she got to keep it. Is that one good-looking toddler, or what? I think she got most of her genes from Lily.





So precious :3 I can't wait to see what she'll look like as a kid.



A normal breakfast scene for Felix and Lily: Felix wolfing down his cereal and Lily watching, clearly amused.

Lily: "Cereal's traditionally eaten with a spoon, you know, not straight from the bowl."



No real point to this picture, except to show that Felix is a total hunk.



Lily obviously thinks so too, cause it sounds like a brother or sister for Flora is in the making :D



On Sunday, the traditional (can you say it's traditional after two times?) town meeting was held. Flora was quick to let Arthur know her displeasure about having her head wedged into the coffeetable.



Arthur's amazing with kids, and Flora took to him immediately :) I can't wait for him to have a few tots of his own, he's going to be a wonderful dad.



Of course, put Nate and Davin in a room together and you'll get a slapfest pretty much instantly. It's always Davin that starts it, too.



Lily's decided that everytime Davin gets up to something nasty, she'll teach him a lesson. Hopefully he'll cotton on after a while and stop being such a jerkbag. From the looks of it, Felix is telling a pretty enthralling anecdote about a skunk in the background. Or maybe he thinks one of the settlers could do with washing a bit more often.



Nate thinks poultryfied Davin is the height of hilarity.



Davin: "AAAAHHHH I'M COVERED IN BEEEEESSS!"
Nate: "Serrrrves you rrriiiiiiight!"



Look at her giggle. >:)



Anna spent the evening upstairs, socialising with the only other robot in the house.

Anna: "They *beep* treat you well here? Regular oilings *bloop* and such?"
Toy Robot: "WHIIRRRRRRR!!"
Anna: "I think one of your chips is *bzzt* malfunctioning..."



Rose and Cordelia sat outside and chatted for most of the evening. I'm not sure Rose is the best of influences on a young girl, though.

Rose: "...and there I was, sat on his desk, handcuffs and butter at the ready! I tell you, the expression on his face was to die for."
Cordelia: "...I don't get it?"

Let's keep it like that for now, kid ><



Back in the house, it seems like Davin's magical misfortune has only made him more angry, and he got into an all-out brawl with Nate. Arthur and Violet, pacifists, watch in horror.

Violet: "Arthur, do something! You're an officer of the law!"
Arthur: "Uhm, yes, but I'm not in my uniform, and they look scary..." *hides face in hands*



Myra: "Oh well, you know. Most of the time it isn't so bad, but when you turn your back on them for a minute..."

Are you talking about your kids or Davin here, Myra?



Uh-oh, seems like Davin has pissed off Felix this time.

Felix: "Right. I've just about had enough of you, Davin. You're rude, abrasive, you bother everyone in town including my wife. And then you come into MY house, where I have invited you, and start a fight?!"
Davin: "But Nate was..."
Felix: "I don't care! Nate has as much the right to be here as you! As a matter of fact, right now he has MORE of a right to be here than you!"



Felix: "If you don't clean up your act pretty soon, I'm kicking you out of town. Understood?"
Davin: "But I...
"Felix: "UNDERSTOOD?"
Davin *mumbling* "You're not the boss of me..."


Will Davin have a change of heart? Will he start plotting the fall of Felix as the town's leader and stage a coup? Will Cordelia start acting out under the bad influence of Rose? Will Felix get even hairier? Those questions answered*, and more, in the next installment of The Unnamed BaCC!
