Yesterday, I made a second character…for the sole purpose of unlocking spotlight items at Nook’s, so that I can complete my museum. So I hopped into Kapp’n’s taxi and went for a ride.
I named the new character Villager, and Kapp’n dropped me off outside of town hall.
After Pelly welcomed me to town and showed me where my house is on the map, I went home right away. I tried to save my game there, but it wouldn’t let me.
So I went outside and got attacked by a raccoon!
It was Tom Nook, of course. Even though the house is already paid off, he still wants me to work at his shop part-time. But I didn’t want to do that if I didn’t have to, so I went back in the house and jumped into bed. This time, it let me save my game. Hopefully that will be enough to unlock the spotlight items, but I guess I’ll find out sooner or later.
After that, I switched to my Jeff character. I watered flowers, talked to villagers, and I caught a sweetfish for Kiki. (She rewarded me with a Persian wall). After I checked the recycle bin, I heard Pelly sigh! She had some new dialogue!
She mentioned how she was trying to get Pete to notice her, even going so far as to straighten her wings and polish her beak? Yikes, that wing thing sounds a bit painful.
I played again today, and I listened in on a conversation between Kiki and Teddy. Kiki told Teddy that it was nice to see him smiling, and that he always looked so happy. But Teddy responded that he’s not smiling, he’s just flexing his face.
The conversation started out nicely enough, but it soon turned into an argument.
Kiki didn’t understand why Teddy needed ripped cheek muscles, and Teddy said they were necessary to “power chew” gum. Kiki ultimately wondered if everyone in town was crazy except her.
At town hall, Pelly had some additional dialogue. She concluded that she has to be more aggressive in her approach (to get Pete to notice her). She just doesn’t think she has the courage to actually do it.
Rosie has been asking me for pink furniture for an eternity (or two). So when Nook had a lovely table for sale today, I decided to buy it for her. Rosie seemed to love it, and she rewarded me with an ivy wall. I left and re-entered her house to see if she displayed it in her house, and she had. But when I spoke to her, she again said she needed pink furniture! Ugh!
