Tutu’s Adieu

I was surprised to see a striped alien when I went into Savannah’s house tonight! Ahhhhh!

A striped alien? Or just Savannah from behind?Fortunately, the alien turned into Savannah when it turned around. Whew.

I got another surprise when I went into Tutu’s house: She was all packed up and ready to move out of town.

Tutu: I know this is kinda sudden, but I've decided to move to another town.Tutu was never one of my favorites, but I suppose it was nice to have her in town for a while. I guess I couldn’t really expect a polar bear to stick around for long–even though it is cold of her not to give me any warning or explanation. 😛 Summer is almost here, and she probably needs to take her icy nature to a chilly climate.

Of course, Aurora is a penguin, and yet she can handle the weather just fine. She has trouble keeping track of her house key though, as she locked herself out of her house tonight. I helped her out by doing a little fishing for her key.

I caught a key! ...Whose key is this?When I returned it to her, she thanked me and gave me a nebuloid in return.

Wendell was also in town, and I decided to catch a fish for him (for a change). Once I caught the one I was going to give him though, I couldn’t find him! Then I realized, the clock recently struck 12 midnight, and that caused him to leave town immediately. I even confirmed with Booker that no visitors were in town. Oh well, I’ll put the fish in my house for next time.

Last month, I mentioned I was redecorating my basement. Since I didn’t post a pic at the time, I’ll show it now. It has an Arwing (from Star Fox) and a bunch of asteroids.

As you may know by now, it was for the video I was working on. It’s called “What if Animal Crossing Sounded Like Star Fox 64?” and it has clips from ACCF (and the original Animal Crossing) along with voice clips from Star Fox 64. If you haven’t seen it yet, or want to see it again, here it is. I think it’ll make you laugh. 🙂

Conflicting Rumors

After Savannah finished unpacking, I made to check out her new home. I like the dual cabana armchairs with the music player in the middle. She and a friend can sit there are listen to music–the White Stripes maybe?

Savannah: Oh, Jeff! Welcome to my humble household! Make yourself at home.Last Friday, Tom Nook trashed his store. So to speak. Two of his three furniture items were garbage cans!

I refuse to buy this trash.

I saw a large fish shadow in the bay today, so I stopped to catch it. Sadly, it was just a sea bass, but I like how this picture came out with the windmill in the foreground.

Fishing in the bay.Ben and Tutu were both talking about Mac and Savannah today, but their rumors were nearly opposites of each other! Get your stories straight, you gossipy animals!

Tutu: So, like, Mac and Savannah seem like they get along pretty well, right?

Benedict: What's the deal with Mac and Savannah anyway? They're always so cold with each other.Chow asked me for a butterfly fish, so I did a few minutes of fishing to see if I could catch one. And indeed, I did track one down. When I took it back to Chow, he rewarded me with 720 bells.

Chow: Fine work, old dog. Fine indeed. Take 720 bells for the effort, up a tree!

ZOMG Zebra!

Last weekend, I got Stinky’s goodbye letter in the mail. I’ll miss the stinky cat–but not his litterbox. Believe me, his name is well-earned. Even “multiple strength for multiple cats” litter wasn’t strong enough for what he would unleash each day.

Stinky's goodbye letter.I also received a letter from Mom on Sunday. It was Mother’s Day, and she sent me a big of pink carnation seeds. Happy (belated) Mother’s Day to all the moms out there! 🙂

Dear Jeff, Today (and today only), your dad is doing the laundry and cleaning. It's my day. -MomI was very surprised when I looked at my town map and saw a house belonging to Savannah the zebra! I’ve wanted her for years! I used to joke about wanting to steal Megan’s Savannah, and now I don’t have to! (Not that I could anyway). But I’m really happy to finally get Savannah in my town after all these years!

Savannah: I just moved here. My name is Savannah.She instantly becomes my favorite villager in town, although Static is a close second.

Over by the town hall and Nook ‘n’ Go, I heard Tutu and Twiggy pinging and whistling as they had a conversation with each other. I arrived too late to listen in on what they were saying, but I still talked to them both individually. Tutu told me that she couldn’t sleep…because she has insanity. Her words. I didn’t argue.

Tutu: Hey, in a flash. I can't sleep. I think I have what's-it-called. Insanity.When I visited Alli, she told me that she has lots of memories tied to her furniture.

Alli: I have too many memories tied to this furniture. I need to sell it off and reboot my mood.Yeah, nothing says nostalgia like a barrel of hazardous materials.
