Action: Having naught a bit of feed to offer the ducks, I sit and admire them, and mayhaps even the fair weather lulls me into a nap.
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): n/a
You close your eyes, but only for a moment. When they open again, it seems the ducks have started using you as a warming rock. You nearly jump, just from pure shock rather than fear. Yet it’s enough to drive away all of them. You find yourself holding onto a Breeding Ticket!

Action: now feeling a bit more confident around the pond after meeting my goose friend, i decide go to the water and take a splash!
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): n/a
Your goose friend shows you their new object they’ve found. It’s a Comb! They brush their feathers, making themselves look… questionable. Maybe you should take it away.

Action: i sit by the river with my legs in the water, contentedly watching little fish and such swim by- as well as the occasional Quacks[TM], of course!
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): N/A
Your ducky friend attempts to catch the fish. They failed quite a few times, sheepishly looking away from you each time or getting frustrated. Eventually they succeed! The Quack Friend[TM] shows you what they found! It is a Breeding Ticket.

Action: Because the books were a big hit with the ducks, I decide to stock up on more stories for them. Unfortunately, Amazon takes time to deliver even in digital worlds so today I make up some stories as I feed them grapes.
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): Duck Feed: Grapes
Amazon messed up your book orders, but still managed to do some good. You got one of each Duck Feed! Very odd I rolled it twice in one day, makes me squint at the wheel. Thankfully the company admitted their mistakes and have Beauty and the Goose being sent over along with other ordered books. And your grapes were a popular snack between stories. By you and them haha.

Action: Today I brought along a sketchbook and some graphite pencils to hopefully draw up the likeness of some of the water foul at the pond. Birds have never been my strong suit, so we'll see how this goes.
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): n/a
The water birds take offense at you calling them foul instead of fowl. How dare autocorrect win that battle! You got some nice sketches of their tails at least, but it makes you smile and laugh a little. In order to see them better, an Ultrasound would make it easier! Not it’s intended use, but here you go none-the-less.

Action: It seems that the wind is picking up speed, maybe a nice kite-flying session is in order.
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): N/A
The wind is whipping like crazy. You raise your kite up and it takes off so well! Despite the good winds, you notice your kite suddenly drop down. You head over, making sure it wasn’t damaged. It’s not damaged, but it’s not a kite either… you don’t know how, but your kite is now a Fertility Booster!

Action: I have been thinking deeply about what happened yesterday. Did the duck speak to me, or did I just imagine it? I'm not sure, but I decide to visit the ducks again today with some more food. I am always happy to spend time with the ducks! And maybe some day I will solve the mystery...
Duck Feed (If Owned/Optional): Birdseed
Your questions will remain unanswered. Ducks are an unsolved mystery, their black beady eyes looking through you. Or well, through you to that birdseed! A few come up to chow down, even a young gosling matching their size joins in. They finish it, and a very tired mama goose comes over with a present for you. A bag of Duck Feed: Grapes. Likely a thanks for watching her little gosling for a bit. Your heart is touched and you just melt at the pair.

Action: well, that's a positive result even if it's not the goal. It seems like the ducks took the positive reinforcement instead as a subtle request to being more food, probably to feed them?
Perhaps we ought to just focus on one idea at a time.
I give my penguin a sign;"Hello, I am Earnest, I would like some duck friends". I then read it out any time a duck comes near. If they seem to make any - any! - progress on learning English, I'll reward them with a grape. We'll just teach them that much English for today.
Duck Feed: Grapes
Honk! They waited for a grape. HONK! They deserved a grape! Honk is English word! The big white bird flapped their wings angrily until you complied. It was then you realized it was a swan. Earnest agrees, Honk is a word. The Swan waits for its well deserved multiple grapes, seeming more intelligent than the others on English. You talk and the swan seems to answer back, though you don’t know if flapping wings and honking a lot means yes or no. After a bit, the vigorous head nods tells you exactly that: yes. Being towards the end of the day, you and Earnest start waddling home, except you have a large water fowl in tow. Congrats, I guess the Swans are now more Friend than foe? Though with being half your size, you still feel a 50/50 feeling. (Any Friend or Foe encounter will now be an automatic Foe for you for the next week to help storyline progress, but to also not have too many at once be made for you. Thanks for understanding and congrats again!)
The Friend or Foe section has now been updated! Geese are now classified as friends and will no longer chase people, but Swans still will! Geese adopts outside of Friend or Foe will occur as well. But it also appears a new water fowl has entered the park, but they aren’t quite right…
All levels of feed, including none, have now gained an additional Friend or Foe encounter chance. The friend or foe wheel has not changed chances yet, but may in the future!
