I went diving in the rain last night, and I caught a scallop. Pascal popped up and told me some wise words about magic.
He gave me another pearl for the scallop.
Midge was enjoying some coffee at the Roost, and she was talking about reading. She said she wants to read something more mature, like a “hard-boiled novel.” I’m surprised a bird isn’t reluctant to use that phrase. 😛
It’s kind of funny timing, because in Wild World yesterday, Dad sent me a letter using the same phrase.
When I went into Nook’s Cranny, a big ape walked over and got right in my face! How intimidating. 😛
At the plaza tonight, K.K. Slider performed K.K. Reggae for me, Bob, Rio, and Agent S.
I posted a new video today ranking my villagers in all eight of my Animal Crossing towns. Check it out if you’re interested! 🙂
On Monday, I gave Midge a new catchphrase, “in the sky.” It’s one I’ve given her before, during her previous stint in Forest a couple years ago.
On Tuesday, Ketchup asked me to take her head bandages off her hands. Why weren’t the bandages on her head? 😛 I know I’ve seen this line of dialogue before from Agent S, but it still made me chuckle.
Flick was in town, and I had 26 bugs, worth a whopping 210,000 bells, to sell him.
Yesterday, I had Zoe the anteater as a camper. She’s one of the returning villagers that was around on GameCube, but wasn’t seen again until New Horizons 2.0. But I did not invite her to move in.
Gulliver was in town, and I agreed to help him out by digging up the pieces of his communicator. But that was a more difficult challenge than it was last time. That’s because four of the first things I dug up were manila clams, not phone pieces! I even dug up a 5th clam before finding all of the communicator parts. But today, Gulliver sent me a Dala horse in the mail.
Today was Ketchup’s birthday, so I made sure to attend her party. Instead of French fries, I gave her a Tomato Festival tee this year. 🍅
Fellow short peppy villager Agent S was also there to help Ketchup celebrate. She said she helped Ketchup decorate for the party, too. Aww, it’s cute to think of these two trying to hang up party decorations. 😆
Ketchup said this was her happiest day of the year. ☺️
A few other quick notes about this week:
My savings balance reached 63 million bells on Sunday.
K.K. Slider performed “To the Edge” for me, Bob, and Louie.
I didn’t buy turnips this week, but I did get 50 free ones at the hospital. I sold them yesterday for a moderate profit.
On Wednesday night, Matthew invited me over to a party he was hosting. Nicky, Jesse, and Jac were there initially, and we were later joined by Logan, Nami, and Sam.
What Matthew didn’t tell me, but told everyone else, was that it was a Splatoon-themed birthday party! Just about everyone else had a superhero mask to look like an Inkling, or in Jesse’s case, a soft-serve hat in reference to a recent Splatfest. The best I could do was to change into my frog outfit, so at least I was semi-aquatic. 😛
Over by the beach, we spotted a couple of ocean sunfish, apparently squishing a whale shark. 😛
We hung out with some of the villagers, including Chai. She balanced a tea cup on her head for us. 😉
It was a good par-tea trick.
I turned myself into a Korok, and Nami did as well. Then she fell into one of the many pits that were buried around town. 😛
Before the party ended, we took a group photo. Thanks for the good time, everyone! And happy birthday, Matt! 🎂
Back in my town, I helped out Gullivarrr. On Thursday, he sent me another pirate bandanna in the mail.
Yesterday, Ankha gave me a new nickname, and it’s one I don’t think I’ve seen before: Gold star! Seems appropriate, given her apparent love of gold. 😛
When I visited Static, I found my two favorite purple villagers hanging out together. 🙂
C.J. was in town, and I sold him 258,000 bells worth of fish. That included three Napoleonfish, which I’ve been seeing a lot of lately. (And I still have one in storage.)
Today, Beth invited me over to compete in the Bug-Off in her town, Cassia. Maple was there, and she said she was on fire…referring to her bug-catching skills.
Beth’s town is so heavily decorated that there didn’t seem to be many bugs spawning! Or at least, that’s my excuse for losing two out of our three battles (with the other one being a tie). 😛
I also sold the rest of my turnips in Cassia for 91 bells apiece, which was much higher than my own price.
Later on, I returned the favor and invited Beth over to Forest for the Bug-Off in my town. She again won two out of three rounds, but at least I won once. 😛
At the end of the day, I checked with Flick to redeem my points. I had 66 points, and I used them to obtain a termite mound, a toy centipede, a bug wand, two spider doorplates, and an artisanal bug cage.
Due to the Bug-Off, there was no K.K. Slider concert tonight.
