Saturday Sea Bass Search

It was almost midnight when I started up the game tonight, so I quickly made my way to the Roost. I asked K.K. Slider to play a random song for me, and he played some soul.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: K.K. Soul!Hopper wanted to compete to see who could catch a sea bass first. Since villagers can’t actually catch fish on their own, I figured it would be easy. So I agreed to the competition.

Hopper: Let's see who can catch a sea bass first, you or me!Puddles was finally over her cold, and she thanked me profusely. She also gave me an arched window.

Puddles: It's all because of your medicine, J-star! You are so crazy nice!
No, I’m just crazy.

I got a bit of a scare when I visited Kiki. She had all of her furniture packed up in boxes, and she was about to move out of town! But I breathed a sigh of relief when I remembered this was Wild World, and I could change her mind. And indeed, she agreed to reconsider on my very first attempt.

Kiki: Jeff, if you want me here so badly, I'll think about it. But no promises!In front of my house, I ran into Baabara. She was talking about how she once wanted to be a pop star. When she was done talking, she asked me to pretend we never had the conversation.

Baabara: Would you do me a favor and pretend we never had this conversation?
Don’t worry, you wicked woolly witch, I try to forget *every* conversation we have.

With my walk around town complete, I decided to start fishing for that sea bass for Hopper. I caught several red snappers, a few octopi, two old tires, a boot, and even a hammerhead shark!

I caught a hammerhead shark!
Remember, hammerhead rhymes with schmammerbed.

I also caught a stag beetle I saw on a tree. But it was taking me quite a while to catch a sea bass! There’s always lots of them, until you actually want to find one. 😛 But eventually, I did catch one. When I took it over to Hopper, he rewarded me by giving me his imperial tile.

I made one last stop at the museum, where I donated my hammerhead shark and stag beetle. My pockets are now full of stuff to sell when I play next time.
