Talking Coffee

Pascal was in town today, and he told me that salespeople sell their truth at half off. That’s an interesting way of looking at it…and he’s basically right.

Pascal: Maaannn, salespeople sell their truth at half off.

He then gave me a sea view (wallpaper) and jumped into the ocean.

I visited Goldie, and she told me a story about one time she tried doing some tae kwon do with a mouth full of banana bread. It turned out that the banana bread got stuck in her throat! Oh no, poor doggy!

Goldie: ...It got stuck in my throat! It was terrible!

It was nearly 11 p.m. when I started the game up tonight, so I didn’t have much chance to sell things. In fact, I only managed to sell one load of fruit (plus the sea view from Pascal). Even with me finding the money rock later, I only made a total of 14k on the day. Not good.

Kabuki was sick, and I couldn’t buy any medicine for him. However, I checked my storage at home and found one dose of medicine there. I took it over to Kabuki; get well soon!

Kabuki: Phew... I'm finally feelin' a little less delirious, meooo-OH.

At town hall, Phyllis had some dialogue about coffee for me! She asked if I was a coffee drinker. I am.

Phyllis: Are you a coffee drinker? 'Cause I don't trust people who aren't!

She told me I should go to the Roost and get a cup of the best coffee in town. (It’s also the only coffee in town). 😉

So I did go down to the Roost, and I was very surprised to see Harriet there! I don’t think I’ve seen her there before, in any game!

Harriet: I already know whatever you were going to say. Call it a stylist's intuition.
I was going to tell you that you’ve been replaced by a mirror.

Have a good night, everyone! See you next time.

Margie’s Twinkle

Victoria was all packed up and ready to move out of town, but I talked her out of it. It only took one try, which was nice for a change. 😛

Mathilda asked me to make a delivery to Margie, and she only gave me ten minutes to do it. And it nearly took me that long to find her, too. But I made the delivery in time, and Margie seriously loved her gift, a twinkle shirt.

Margie: Woo hoo! Yes! YEEEEES! All my life I've been wanting a twinkle shirt!
That may be the strongest reaction to a delivery I’ve ever seen.

When I told Mathilda the job was complete, she gave me a stone tile. I was a bit less excited than Margie.

Kabuki was sick with a cold, so I bought some medicine for him. He started to feel better right away.

Kabuki: Oh! I'm feelin' pretty dang good all of a sudden! Thanks, J-puff!

I saw Dr. Shrunk was in town, but I didn’t even bother talking to him. I guess I just had an axolotl on my mind.

I collected and sold some fruit to make some bells. But it also helped that I caught a hammerhead shark and goliath beetle. I ended up making about 80k on the night. That was enough to put my savings up to a million bells, so I made another 7-figure donation to Boondox.

Phyllis: 1,000,000 bells?

If I’m not mistaken, I still need to donate two million more bells before I’m done with Boondox forever. That’s still going to take a while.

Mathilda’s Pic

Pascal was in town today, and he was wondering if Tom Nook sells land legs! I don’t think that’s how it works. 😉

Pascal: Oh, maaaannn...I wonder if that dude Nook sells land legs.

He then offered to share some wisdom with me. He said that one man’s loss is another otter’s lunch.

Pascal: One man's loss is another otter's lunch, maaannn.

Before jumping off into the sea, he handed me a ship compass.

When I visited Victoria, she thanked me for the medicine I gave her last time. As a reward, she gave me a trash bin.

Victoria: OK, here you go! Trash bin!

I then delivered a letter from Benedict to Antonio, and Ben rewarded me with 520 bells.

Mathilda surprised me by giving me her picture! She said now everyone will think I have a crush on her.

Mathilda: Now everyone will think you've got a crush on me! Tee hee hee!

It’s just ridiculous how easy it is to get villager photos in this game, compared to New Leaf and New Horizons. I wasn’t even trying to get her pic, I only play once a week, and I rarely do any favors for her. Yet, here’s her pic, just like that. I put it in my house with the others. Her favorite quote is “Blood is thicker than water.”

My room of villager photos, now with Mathilda's pic.

I made sure to sell all the fruit I left on the ground last time. I also harvested a bunch more fruit. In total, I earned about 120,000 bells on the day. Next week, I should have enough for another million-bell donation to Boondox (assuming Nook’s isn’t closed by the time I play). 😛
