Ariadne & Cliff
These C2 Stories were written by me, Annette.

Once upon a time, Albia had 7 males and only two females in it. So the hand decided it would pick two nice norns, Ariadne and Cliff, and send them together on a honeymoon adventure hoping they will mate. Well, just in case, the male norn's father, Buzz was elected to go as chaperone as well as company if something happened the other norn. The hand sent them all three up the elevator into the desert. Things seemed fine until they jumped off the platform and then it was chaos. They kept wandering off by themselves, Ariadne prefered to go left, and Buzz and Cliff would go right and get in the little boat and head for the volcano. No matter how hard the hand pushed or coaxed, they would go in opposite directions. The hand had to bring them back to the left and they would go back to the volcanic island. Ariadne, whenever she decided to go to the seaside, it was to jump into the sea. The hand had to save the contrary couple from drowning several times, and they still seemed to enjoy it. No matter how many times the hand put them together after their drowning escapades, they would still wander off alone. So the hand left them awhile with some scarlet pufferfish in the sea and attended to the other norns.
When the hand came back, it found them reasonably close to each other in the desert, so the hand gradually pushed them both into the elevator on the left. Buzz was sent back to the incubator room, because Cliff seemed distracted by him. Finally after ten minutes, the hand got them both down a level to the little alcove where the science kit implement was. The hand made sure there was a drink vending machine and brought food for them there. Once again they were in different corners of the narrow space there. The hand gave up pushing them and decided to let them be there for sometime alone. The hand came back ten minutes later, and to it's delight found them kissing passionately! Then Ariadne became pregnant alright, and the hand looked after her during her pregnancy. She wasn't very sickly during that time, and soon gave birth to another male named Craig.
He was always smiling at his parents and was generally good natured. The hand then decided it was time they explored more of Albia together, now that they were closer to each other. So it sent them up in the lift again and pushed them left towards the wooden bridge. Craig was sent back to the incubator room for education and to have more playmates to teach him things. Ariadne and Cliff again had some wandering off sessions, but at least it wasn't so far away from each other as before. But they were constantly tired with the hand pushing them and lack of food on the wooden bridge and fell asleep frequently, so it was a very slow process pushing them together all the time. After about twenty minutes, the hand got them into the elevator on the left of the bridge and pushed the "down" button. Then they were in another smaller room. The hand left them there while attending to a sick norn.
When it came back, to it's chagrin, Cliff had used the elevator to get himself up again! But it wasn't quite as difficult to get him back down, and push the elevator away from that floor. The hand then scouted around for food for them and decided to get them to the part of Albia where lots of mushrooms and fruit grew, on the right. The only way there was to get them down another level and walk towards the right, and take that lift down and push them left where all the food was. So, the hand got them down another level. It couldn't push them towards the right somehow, and left them there awhile. When it came back, it was horrified to find Cliff in what looked like water on the left of that room and sitting there alone. Surprisingly, he wasn't drowning, though, and the hand relaxed a little. Now, the problem was getting him out of the hole, where he had fallen and gotten stuck in. Ariadne was on the right on dry ground. The only way out of the hole was to get into the trampoline and bounce his way out. The hand got him there, but unfortunately he bounced the wrong way and got himself on the ledge on the left. And no norn can come back right without falling into the hole again. That's just what he did after a short nap. Then, to the hand's dismay, Ariadne joined him and fell into the hole!
Frustrated, the hand took a break and left them, since they were in no danger of drowning. When the hand came back, it tried again to get them out. Cliff kept being bounced left towards the dead end, and Ariadne bounced right towards safety, but since Cliff was left, she kept coming back and falling into the hole to get to Cliff. Finally, after what seemed like hours, the hand managed to get them both on the right side and firmly pushed them towards the elevator. There was a teleporter next to it, and the hand pushed them further in. Then it got Ariadne down first and then pushed Cliff (who could be very stubborn and refuse to move) persistantly from the teleporter to the lift until he went down as well.
Then the hand pushed them left where the food was and got the elevator up so that it would prevent them from getting out too quickly. Cliff moved towards the food, but Ariadne wasn't too interested in anything but sleeping. So hand then left them there. It came back to check on them a few times and found them enjoying themselfs there although they did not stay together nor kiss again. So the hand left them again.
The next time it came back, to it's utmost surprise, it couldn't find Ariadne anywhere around the vicinity, although Cliff was still at the shroom patch. It searched the floor above where it had left the elevator, but still couldn't find her. Then it saw the teleporter and guessed that Ariadne had got herself up a floor and then cleverly used the teleporter to get herself back into the incubator room. It rushed back to the room, and sure enough, found Ariadne serenely talking to the other norns there. What a relief for the hand! Since it was so troublesome to get her all the way to Cliff again, the hand decided it might as well bring Cliff back. So it exported and imported Cliff and got him back. Then the hand decided that it would send them down a level and let them stay there by themselves instead.
The next time the hand came back, about twenty minutes later, it finally found them kissing again. This time a great celebration was held in Albia, for Ariadne finally after four hours since her last baby, gave birth to another much needed female baby named Dalia. And they lived happily ever after.
