Sad Duck, New Cat

I played briefly on May 1st, and I got to see the windsocks that fly every year in early May.

Standing by the windsocks in early May.

Today, I received Mathilda’s goodbye letter in the mail. She bounced after three months in Forest.

Dearest Jeff! During my entire move, I was sure I was forgetting something. You know what it was? I forgot to say adieu to you. I hope this letter will ease your devastation... All the best! -Mathilda

I ran into Pompom, and she said her mood was as ugly as the weather. I thought ducks liked the rain, though.

Pompom: My mood is as ugly as the weather, rah rah.
Oh, cheer up.

Ursala was being as rude as ever. First she insulted me…

Ursala: I've heard that your room has absolutely no personality, Jeff! After looking at you, I can believe it.

…and then she tried to rip me off. I’m starting to wonder why she’s not my least-favorite villager in town. Even Baabara and Belle weren’t as rude as Ursala, at least today. 😛

Ursala: Well, care to buy an exotic rug or a kiddie wall for 19,500 bells?
I can bearly afford that.

But just seconds later, I forgot about Ursala’s unkindness when I ran into Mathilda’s replacement: It’s Purrl! She’s such a good kitty. 🙂

Purrl: Oh, no! Not another fan, kitten! Curse my movie star looks and winning personality!
Of course she is still a snooty. Well, pobody’s nerfect.

She previously lived in Forest back in 2012.

Wendell will be in town on Sunday, and several of my villagers were talking about his upcoming visit.

Kody: There's an artist roaming around the village. He wears lots of blue. I don't think he works out too much, either.

Emerald asked me to catch an insect for her, so that she can study it.

Emerald: I bet there are still a lot of mysteries surrounding insects that remain to be solved. I want to study them more.
And by “study,” she means “eat.” 🐜

The problem is that not many bugs show up when it’s raining. I went around banging rocks, and then I tried shaking a few trees. I wasn’t having much luck for a while. But I eventually found a pill bug; I took it back to Emerald, and she rewarded me with a perfect painting! Of course, I already have one in the museum, but that’s a really good reward for a bug!

I posted a video of today’s full gameplay session, if you’d like to see it:

See you all next time! 🙂
