Return-Ed

When I played on Tuesday, I received Groucho’s goodbye letter in the mail. He says he’s going to drift wherever the wind takes him.

Saharah was in town, looking for old wallpaper. I asked my villagers for some, but only Felicity and Punchy were able to help me out.

But fortunately, I also had one old wallpaper in storage. So I took the three over to Saharah, and she gave me a tree-lined wall for them.

Today, I spotted a new house in the northeast part of town…where every potential house spot is currently occupied with a house. It’s a jumbled mess up there. But inside the new house, I found that Ed the horse has trotted back to town.

Ed lived in Forest before, back in 2014, when I was still taking screenshots in the standard (4:3) aspect ratio. Ed has never been a favorite of mine, but I don’t hate him either. He’s just a stable guy to have around, I guess.

After a trip to the city to get my hair changed back to normal, I bumped into Punchy behind Nook ‘n’ Go. He was telling me that he recently lost some weight.

I wasn’t sure where he was going what that, but I quickly found out. He said that being smaller would make him better at hiding; he was asking me to play hide-and-seek with him. I agreed, and he gave me ten minutes to find him, Marina, and Felicity. I quickly found Felicity hiding behind Nana’s house.

I later found Marina behind a cedar tree, and then Punchy was trying to hide behind a sign post! You haven’t lost that much weight, pal!

I won the game, so Punchy rewarded me with a mini fizzoid.

I posted a new video today, taking a look at eight things I’d like to see in the next Animal Crossing game. It includes a feature of City Folk that I’d like to return.

See you all next time!
