The Watcher Watches

324 The Watcher Watches: Laz's House ~~ Improved Klaatu ~~



Klaatu practices hopscotch on the game that Dayvid had wished for.
"This is 3njoyable. 3njoyment=fun." she thinks.

She has a wish for more friends, but how to get them? She decides to ask Laz.
"Laz, wh3r3 do I m33t n3w fri3nds?" Laz is happy to see that a '.' is no longer between her words! Klaatu is improving!
"I know just the place, Klaatu! It has so many fun things to do there, it's called the Festival. Come, we will all go!" says Laz.

They arrive at the festival and Klaatu has trouble getting out of the car, her torso is facing the opposite of her feet!
"How P3culiar!" thinks Klaatu, and rights herself.

Klaatu embarks on making new friends, she spies the Preacher, unoccupied, and heads for him.
Of course Preacher gets the initial reaction! Ack! a Simbot!
But Watcher intercedes again, making her give it another try, otherwise she would have no friends but her family!

One handshake and a couple of words, and they like each other! Klaatu finds out Preacher is good, charismatic and neurotic. (Interesting about the Good trait with seeing him yesterday leaping on BadRobot to fight! Preacher is more interesting than I first thought! Good sims usually refrain from physical violence.)

Preacher decides to let Klaatu in on his neurotic conspiracy theories! Well she needs to learn about all types! haha even though it looks like she is a bit shocked! She takes his theories at face value.
"This is truth 4 Pr3ach3r." she decides, with no judgement.

"Pr3ach3r, I saw d3ath of my mak3r. Qu3stion. Did h3 hav3 a soul. Do I hav3 a soul?" asks Klaatu.
"Well, you are conscious, and self aware. Are you tapped into Nature's consciousness or the universal consciousness? The consciousness of the entire cosmos?" asks Preacher.
"Affirmativ3. Not wh3n I was cr3at3d but, wh3n Branch fix3d m3. I b3cam3 awar3 of all that is." says Klaatu.

"Hmm. I would tend to say that yes you do have a soul. I can't say the same for your maker, not having spoken to him about such matters." says Preacher. He thinks Klaatu is cool.

Moving about to see what everyone is up to:

Klaatu decides to speak with Annalove, Rainflower's wife.
Oh My! They are obviously not feeling the Love! tsk tsk tsk!

Klaatu tries again, and finds out that Annalove is a technophobe, I guess she has a good excuse to fear robots!
Rainflower was so shocked seeing a Simbot for the first time, it created an enormous amount of toxic gas and he burped loudly!

"The gas was blocking the Love, Watcher, it had to be released!" he explains.
Hm. OK.

Rainflower, we will give you another chance to be nice, and show us the Love.
Klaatu makes his acquaintance and Rainflower smiles. "Peace and Love to you Klaatu!" he greets.
Klaatu finds out he is a slob, a virtuoso and absent minded.

Of course their neat and slob traits clash! But Klaatu says
"Rainflow3r, w3 could B complim3ntary. You lik3 2 B slobby, I lik3 2 B n3at!" she adds "Branch and I R also complim3ntary!"
Rainflower can't help but agree! "It is the Love! The all encompassing love that emanates from conflicting traits! That is proof!"

"In fact, if you ever want a job, you can come live in our boarding house and be our housekeeper!" he offers.
Wow, only one day old and Klaatu is offered a job! She is really special!
https://i.imgur.com/Mm0nSFW.jpg









"Rainflow3r, I d3t3ct your family is full of Lov3. Qu3stion. Why is Annalov3 kissing anoth3r Human? This do3s not comput3." states Klaatu, she does not quite understand human connections yet.

"Oh that is Free Love and the kissing booth. You should go experience it, Klaatu! You can choose from Hamilton Blake and Victoria Vamp! Go on! Take your pick!" says Rainflower.
https://i.imgur.com/fUee6Ev.jpg









"3RROR. N3gative attraction to Hamilton Blak3." *whirr* *kerchunk*
"3RROR. N3gative attraction to Victoria Vamp." *whirr* *kerchunk*
"Do3s Not Comput3."
Klaatu goes a bit berserk.

Rainflower walks back over to watch more closely.

"Wow! You are Far Out, Klaatu! It must be from all the Love you are experiencing!"
Then he says something we would not expect him to say, "If you looked more like one of us, I bet people wouldn't be scared of you, at first glance!" :o
https://i.imgur.com/KceWNI5.jpg
https://i.imgur.com/fBqoXo1.jpg








"Just sayin..." Rainflower adds, "I don't mean it as an insult. People are more at ease with what they are used to seeing, is all. Looking unremarkable is more comforting than looking unique. It helps people feel the Love." :open_mouth:
https://i.imgur.com/i2mzYfP.jpg








Klaatu decides she has had enough of the festival for now. She returns home.
She views herself in the mirror, and is wondering if a change in her appearance, would help the neighbors be more accepting of her, as Rainflower had suggested. She is getting tired of the 'Ack! a Simbot!" initial reaction to her.

"Human Form, Activat3d." says Klaatu.
Pleased with her Human looks, she heads out to the back yard to perform her happiness dance! ????
