I’m not going to go into the “why,” regarding my dislike for multiple characters of the same character in our game. I’ve made it pretty clear that I fear the ramifications of messing with the space/time continuum. And having TWO Homers…or three…or four…is just a stupid idea. Plus…you can’t go back, and shouldn’t WANT to go back in your life… as I made clear, HERE.
The ONLY thing that could make any sense in my town, is if I was able to keep all of the spare Homers in a cage…in the zoo. In which case introducing him into the “Moe’s Ark” zoo event would at least bring some semblance of common sense to the programming and writing of this event.
But, nooooooooooo…
It’s just another Homer. One that hopes to learn something from the “old Homer” which is reflectively impossible, as “old” to someone who is coming from an earlier time/space, would have to consider something old, that had aged in that specific time/space. See? It gets complicated!
But, here we are. With another Homer. A FULL CHARACTER no less…
I got him waaaaaaay early (last Wednesday) because my time/space was filled by logging in every 4 hours when I could, until he became mine. I immediately started putting him to work…”Eating at Krusty Burger”- his 12 hour indoor task…so I don’t have to look at him.
OK. So…we’re done with that. You get it. I’m not a fan…
But, HERE are the Details!

Teenage Homer: Why do you ask? Because I ate 10 tubs of ice cream?
Marge: Ice cream made your hair grow back? And your body change…for the better.
Teenage Homer: I fall asleep under our tree and you go crazy. You seem different too. Did you change your hair?
Marge: Our tree? Homie we haven’t been back there since… Wait, you’re not my Homie, you’re from the past.

Greatest Love Story Ever Forgotten Pt. 4

Homer: Whoa, slow down, handsome me. I’m sure you’ve still got stuff to do in the past.
Marge: But Homie, you just got here. At least stay for dinner.
Homer: Marge, he’s not me! I’m the one who stays for dinner before and after going to Moe’s!
Teenage Homer: I couldn’t disappoint Marge. And by observing Homer, I can get to know myself better while I’m here.

Homer: Marge, you’re going to have to choose. It’s either me or other me.
Teenage Homer: I’m not other you, you’re other me!
Marge: Homie, I love you both. You don’t have to fight over me.
Teenage Homer: Nonsense, Marge, I need to prove to myself that I’m better than me!
Homer: There’s nothing that you me can do that me you can’t do better!
Marge: Is anyone else getting a headache?
TASK: Make Teenage Homer Carve His and Marge’s Name in Tree- 8hrs
Homer: Wow, I have to say I’m pretty impressed with myself. I’ve really outdone me this time.
Teenage Homer: Thanks, me, I really am pretty great.
Marge: I’m going to be sick. The world can’t handle both of you. Time to say goodbye, past Homie.
Teenage Homer: Alright, I will. But not today. I want to see what other cool stuff future Springfield has to offer.
That should read “CARVE” but it is a screen grab…and not sure if it was Alissa’s mistake or EA’s…but I’m leaving it.
With only 2 Visual Tasks…we won’t have to actually see much of Teen Homer. Which is a good thing. Less chance to mess up the “Today” with visitation of “Yesterday.”
That’s it. Funny dialogue…possibly very unfunny consequences if it could happen in real life!
