I spotted one of my master scientists standing on his own a little way away from the table, so I dragged him back to work. His status bar read "Waiting for someone". Just afterwards a farmer came up to where he had been standing and stood turning her head with a look of bewilderment on her face. Her status bar showed "Embracing". I felt quite sad at spoiling their lovers' tryst.

I bet she didn't believe his explanation of why she'd been stood up: "I was waiting for you, honest, Darling, but all of a sudden a huge hand came down out of the sky and dragged me back to work."
