Caution, Mummy

Wendell the starving artist (and walrus) was in town tonight. I caught a sea bass and gave it to the hungry little guy. In return, he gave me a caution pattern.

Wendell: Oh, so very happy! Suh-soo very gratified! Caution pattern!

This is what it looks like:

Benedict was all packed up and ready to move out of town, but I got him to reconsider.

Nookington’s had a spotlight product available today, and it was a mummy’s casket. That’s not a painting like I was hoping for, but it is pretty cool…so I spent the 3,520 bells to buy it.

Tommy: You have a keen eye! That's our spotlight product...the mummy's casket!

Since the store was about to close in less than 15 minutes, I decided to gather and sell as much foreign fruit as I could in that span. But after the shop closed, I didn’t stop gathering until I had picked every apple and pear tree in town. So I still have a bunch of fruit waiting to be sold the next time I play. 🍎🍐

A bunch of apples and pears on the ground outside of Nookington's, waiting to be sold.

Just a few other notes about tonight’s play session:

  • Victoria was sick with a cold, so I gave her some medicine.
  • I delivered a green vest from Antonio to Big Top. Antonio rewarded me with 520 bells.
  • I shook some trees and got a flying saucer and a reel-to-reel from them.

Froggy Chair

Nookington’s had a froggy chair for sale today for just 960 bells. I snatched it up for my pad. I’m happy to report that it farts in Wild World, like all true froggy chairs should.

Timmy: Ah, yes, yes. That's the froggy chair. Very nice. ...very nice.

Crazy Redd was in town, with a perfect painting. But of course, I didn’t need it.

Big Top asked me to catch a crucian carp for him, because it would look really good in a sandwich. But I didn’t want to help him out. I’m still bitter about that time I caught a fish for him and then he said he already caught one. 😛

Big Top: The crucian carp would look really nice in a sandwich, villain!

Antonio asked me to make a delivery to Goldie, and I agreed to help out. It took me a while to find Goldie (she was hiding behind town hall), but I did make it within Antonio’s 10-minute deadline.

The gift was a bear shirt, and Goldie just thought it was okay. When I told Antonio the news, he gave me a lovely carpet to thank me.

Kabuki asked me for some new clothes, so I bought a night sky tee for him at Able Sisters. Kabuki loved it! As a reward, he gave me a star shirt.

Kabuki: I'm totally into it, meooo-OH. It's perfect!

Double Dino Poop

The latest Message of the Week on the bulletin board encouraged readers to take a break, and not pick fruit all day. I think this could also apply to New Horizons players who are hard at work reshaping their islands. 😛 Sometimes you just need a break.

*Message of the Week* Hey! You! Take a break! Don't pick fruit all day!

Margie had her furniture packed up in her trunk boxes tonight; she was trying to move out of town! But fortunately, I was able to quickly talk her out of it.

Margie: Maybe I should stay after all...tootie.

I found two of today’s fossils, and I took them to Blathers to be identified. Surprisingly, they were both dino droppings!

Blathers: This delightful fossil is some dino droppings! And a rather nice one, wot!
So a butterfly is gross to him, but he sure loves that dino poop.

Mathilda asked me to make a delivery to Big Top, and I agree to hop on over to his house. Mathilda sent him a vegetarian shirt, and Big Top just seemed to think it was alright. Mathilda rewarded me with an exotic screen for helping her out.

I ran into Antonio, and he was talking about the existence of a golden watering can. He didn’t want one of those though; he wants a pink one.

Antonio: Listen, keep it on the down-low, but I really dig the color pink...

Maybe he’ll have to play New Horizons and customize it himself! 😛
