katnaper Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) We had just come home and I had just quickly gone to get some water when... Lucy (in her best David Attenborough imitation): I'm in the pursuit of what appears to be a rare species of equine... Lucy: This particular species is, I believe, the offspring of one of the rarest of its kind Equus Zebrakatnapercus. It was believed this species was extinct along with the Quagga (Equus burchelli) but as you can see this is simply not true. Lucy: Now, one must be careful to approach as this species has been known to emit almost deafening cries if startled. Cries designed to bring its foraging parent into almost instantaneously at its side ready to attack... Me: Ahem! Uh, Lucy? Are you trying to - Lucy: Shhhh! You'll wake it up! Me:*eyebrows raised* I'll wake IT up? Wait! Did you just call the baby, IT? Lucy: Well, we were playing a game of pretend see... Me: Playing? Lucy: Yes. I'm pretending to be an explorer and she's a rare species of Zebra that I'm trying to learn more about. Me: O-kay... Lucy: See, she's not even complaining. Me: Uh... if she wakes... Lucy: I promise I won't wake her up Sensei. Me:*Sigh* Lucy: I'll be really careful... Me: Sweetie, I know you will but you know how she can get when she hasn't had her full nap... Lucy: Okay, Sensei. I'll stop. Can I just watch her for a bit though? I'll be really quiet. Me: Well, I have to put her back in her crib... Lucy: Oh, alright I guess. Well, bye Baby Zebra. Your Mom has to take you to bed now. Let's play again some other time, okay? Lucy: Sensei, you know, I think WE need a baby sister... Me: *shocked at the directness of Lucy's erm, request* Huh? Uh... I really need to get the baby to bed. Uh... Go play with Teru or something... Lucy: But... Wow, so its parent disappears instantaneously too... Lucy: Hmmm... I wonder if I shocked Sensei? But a baby sister would really be nice... THE END ---------- Note: No babies or DD's were harmed in the making of this photostory. I can't say the same for its author though as it seems she has gone into shock at the suggestion of an MDD addition to the family... Edited March 20, 2014 by Guest We have our own BLOG.

battrastard Posted March 20, 2014 I can't say the same for its author though as it seems she has gone into shock at the suggestion of an MDD addition to the family... Muahaha! As a recent convert, I'll say that trying to resist an MDD is quite, erm, futile. Just give in, it'll save a lot of grief in the long run.........

Azy Posted March 20, 2014 Haha, what a cute photo story . I'm impressed by how you posed Lucy in every picture! It looks just so.. natural and lifelike ! ~ Currently putting DD collecting on hold ~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Poofiemus Posted March 20, 2014 Aw, it's cute seeing Lucy try to bond with the little one. Pretty shots too, though this one is my hands down favorite. http://s1108.photobucket.com/user/katnaper/media/Lucy/98_zpsc5670b88.jpg.html Really great composition, lighting, and mood there. In this household, sanity is considered a tresspasser. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bouncing_Tigger Posted March 21, 2014 What a beautiful baby!!! She is just soooo sweet! Love your story line, too, and I have to agree with battrastard, also being a recent MDD convert...resistance is futile so you might as well start saving time right now ... and money ... because an MDD is clearly going to be coming to your house!!

Thank you! I just couldn't resist doing the story with her and Lucy. Actually it was having Lucy around that started the whole thing. She's just the type to use her imagination for something like this. She's been clamoring for a little sister since my little one came. Aw, it's cute seeing Lucy try to bond with the little one. Pretty shots too, though this one is my hands down favorite. http://s1108.photobucket.com/user/katnaper/media/Lucy/98_zpsc5670b88.jpg.html Really great composition, lighting, and mood there. Thank you. Lucy likes cute animals so I'm not surprised she pounced on the idea of playing pretend with the baby as soon as she saw the zebra hoodie. Also, among my girls, she's the one who has just the right 'look' to pull off that shot. *o* So cute, Baby and Lucy! Hehehe... thanks. Haha, what a cute photo story . I'm impressed by how you posed Lucy in every picture! It looks just so.. natural and lifelike ! Awww... thanks. I had to take a number of shots and pick one that was just right. The ease with which to pose DDs is what I love about them. Muahaha! As a recent convert, I'll say that trying to resist an MDD is quite, erm, futile. Just give in, it'll save a lot of grief in the long run......... (loved the story, the "narration" gave me quite a chuckle!) Hahaha Thank your Sir. I agree resistance is futile, I'm probably going to end up with an MDD sooner or later but I'm trying to hold off for now. I DO have an 01 head I was planning on working a mod on so she might just end up becoming an MDD gal sometime in the future. We'll see. We have our own BLOG.

Silverwing Posted March 22, 2014 Awww! I loved this story! Your posing of Lucy was perfect, as well as the outfit on the baby! I lol'd at the "Equus Zebrakatnapercus" which means all cubicles around me within earshot probably think I'm crazy now, but whatever. Great story! Beautiful baby too!

Janeway Posted March 22, 2014 awww cute baby. I would go for the obitsu 45cm girl there the same size a MDD but pose better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katnaper Posted March 23, 2014 awww cute baby. I would go for the obitsu 45cm girl there the same size a MDD but pose better. Thanks. I was thinking of a hybrid. DD head with Obitsu body since they are more poseable. Awww! I loved this story! Your posing of Lucy was perfect, as well as the outfit on the baby!

Ravendruid Posted March 23, 2014 AWWWW!!!! Way, way, way cute! It's not often that we get to see any of the larger members of the Katnapper household. Both of those girls are truly adorable. Great job on the posing of Lucy. She does look very lifelike. The other girl, too, althogh I'm sure you did as little posing as possible, there. Every DD household needs an MDD addition. Considering the great personalities all of your dolls tend to have, I would be really curious to see what you'd do with an MDD.

The other larger member of the Household is rather camera shy so sightings of her are rare. As for my future MDD girl, I have been thinking of getting one for a while but those danged cute heads on YJA are so expensive that I'm probably going to try to do a custom 01 head of my own instead but that won't be for some time still.
