For ref: I believe we decided that bizoopagoto is a compound word; bizoo-pa-goto. Bizoo (clone) pa (small) goto (child). Possibly more elaboration to come!
Xan, do you want to share what we've developed so far ?
@CathyTea - Please do!
Poor little Leon speaks a lot more alien when he's little and goes pretty non-verbal as he ages up. So I would love to have/help the language develop as I write out these chapters. Which I'm planning to do over the next few days. But I'd love to throw in a line or two for Leon - Blaze is pretty clueless as to what he's saying, but I'd like it to make sense to those in the know.
I haven't started on Hannah - but her experience is quite different than Leon so I'll probably use the language more with her.
Question about clones. I'm not full up on the whole mythology yet and I'm still working to fit it in with the aliens that have shown up in my stories in the past...not hard at all. HAHAHAHA.
Hidden becuse of length and random spoilers
Spoiler
First off we have the Drifters who in Gen 4 discovered a portal to an alternative universe where the sims were multicolored. (Aliens). Some came through and stayed, but that connected was severed somehow? Or at least the easy pass through that Taylor made is no longer available which explains why there are so few aliens in the Drifter world some 3 generations later. Also the land is pretty highly regulated by the government so it could be that outside the area there are more aliens.
People don't look oddly at Leon for being green and alien. But he doens't really have anyone like him in school or the neighborhood...unless I mess up my shots and pick one with Mina in all her purple glory in the background. Sigh. Hopefully that won't happen. They don't leave home often.
In this world, the clones work quite well. I'm not sure if Leon is a clone or not - since he was in statis when they crashed, he doesn't rememeber the crash. He could go either way (i'm open). He DOES have memories about the panic when they boarded the ship, but they are just sound memories, no visuals and he's not sure where they came from or why. I might not even explain it my story if it doesn't make sense.
He also goes non-verbal as he ages up as simlish sticks in his throat. He's smart and can write just fine, but speaking takes a long time for him. Especially when he's 8 which is the only time I've written him speaking speaking. He may get more comfortable over time. Pretty sure that's a Leon-uniuqe thing and not a clone thing.
Penelope on the other hand is an alien living under a disguise. A product of an abduction. Does this mean she's not a clone? Would she be aware of the clone issues? She has been to Sixam as a child. I had been plannign to have the abudctions explained as an attempt to interface between to two peoples. That the aliens of Sixam are acutally different looking than the humanoid aliens we see in game and they are creating hybrids to help talk between the two....notice how this totally DOESN'T match my drifter parallel universe. Sigh.

Any more information on the whole clone thing would be helpful - I'd love a way to figure out how to fold this all together if I can. Or at least grab pieces of it to smooth out the rough edges.
