Into the Fire

Today, Gulliver sent me a Statue of Liberty from his trip to America. And when I spoke with Molly, she asked me for some fruit. I gave her a perfect orange, and she loved it. She rewarded me by giving me her pot rack. Molly!

Molly: I'm so satisfied! Here. I'll give you my pot rack as my way of saying thank you.Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Abbie from Happy was my most recent dream visitor. I went out to my island and then went to a random Club Tortimer island. To my surprise, there were already two people there. And just a minute later, another person came, so we had a full island. Here’s a pic of us all: Baia, me, Freddy, and Anna.

Four people on a Club Tortimer island.We went on the Super-Luxe Seafood Tour. I’m not a fan of the diving tours (or diving in general) because some of those faster creatures require a lot of button mashing. And some of them still seem to get away from you. But still, this tour went well. We caught 86,400 bells worth of seafood, which was good for a gold Tortimer award. Surprisingly, I actually got 2nd place. So I earned 6 bonus medals in addition to the 12 for the group.

Celebrating a successful island tour.After that, I returned to Forest. Aurora tried to give me a new nickname: Dearie! No, no, no!

Aurora: Ummm... How about dearie?After that, I checked my Happy Homes Showcase. To my surprise, there were five new homes in there! Only two of them were from today, so I must not have checked up there lately. I scored a new bunny balloon and a new pinwheel.

A crowded Happy Homes Showcase.Tom then invited me over to his town. Tom likes to experiment with glitches, so he had something for Kippei and I to try. He tried digging up an item with full pockets, and Kippei and I could not fill the hole back in. At least not until Tom dropped an item.

The unfillable hole.A bit later, I was sitting on a tree stump when another player (Meg) came over to visit. After the loading screen went away, I saw Kippei and I were both sitting on the stump!

Two people sitting on a tree stump!Anyway, Tom jokingly typed that he added Meg as a friend. He then quipped “How’d she get in if she wasn’t already on my list?” Meg replied that she came in through the gate, and then she suddenly left. I don’t know if she thought Tom was serious or what, but I kind of felt bad for her.

Tom then asked me to push him into the fire, where Kippei was already burning. I did, and they were apparently turning into popcorn.

Making popcorn in the fire pit.I used my net to glitch in with them (although I appeared on top of the fire from my perspective). It was hot in there. Very hot.

Standing on a fire pit.Tom then saved the game, and we all died in the fire. Oh, the fire! It burns meeee!

Passing out in the fire.We did a little more glitching, and then I returned home. Later, I went back up to the Happy Homes Showcase to look at the rest of the new houses. My favorite room was this kitchen from Mama’s house.

Mama's kitchen.And before I finished my game for the night, I remembered to change my eye color back to blue.

Harriet: Ta-daaaaa! ...Oh, it looks fabulous!

The Case of the Lost Item

While wearing my shamrock hat, I fell into a pitfall seed today. The hat completely blocks the view of my body, and I thought it looked a bit weird.

A shamrock hat stuck in a pitfall.I found a lost item not far from the train tracks. Hmm, who could this belong to? Detective McShamrock is on the case!

A lost item on the ground.When I went in the police station, there was an option to tell Copper about it. But he refused to help out. Maybe if there were donuts involved…

Copper: Citizen! I hate to ask, but you would be doing this town a great deed by searching for the owner in my place!So I went around asking every villager I could find. Big Top, Kidd, Agent S, Teddy, Molly, and Rolf all said it wasn’t theirs. Maybe I should dust it for paw prints…

Rolf: Nope, that's not mine.While I was on Main Street, I stopped to update my dream town. As for my most recent dream visitor? Well…I’ll let you see for yourself.

Luna: According to the latest feedback, a client named Butthead from Ugh enjoyed your dream.I also went up to Shampoodle to get my hair changed back to normal. I’ll have to change my eyes back another day.

Harriet: That'll be 3,000 bells, please!And when I went down to the beach, I found Nan. The lost item was hers; she said it contained an important recipe. Luckily for her, my drug-sniffing dog Booker was out chasing a criminal’s tail. So I’ll have to take Nan’s word for it.

Nan: Hey! This IS mine!She thanked me for returning it to her, and she rewarded me with a bamboo shoot. That’s all the reward I get? Shoot.

But Nan wasn’t the only animal on the beach: I also spotted Gulliver. I had to talk to him about 15 times before he woke up, but when he did, he made it clear he was heading to the United States of America.

Gulliver: I want to live out the real American Dream!I made my usual trip out to the island, and I was just about to end my game when Aurora asked me for a river fish. I caught a crucian carp for her, and I wasn’t sure if she liked it or not. But then she gave me a men’s toilet. I’ll take that a subtle hint to catch something better next time.

Aurora: It's a men's toilet.

Shamrock Day

Today is St. Patrick’s Day, which is known as Shamrock Day in the world of Animal Crossing.

Tia: I ate some special Shamrock Day cookies earlier. I think my tongue is still green from the frosting!Isabelle can be found in front of the town tree, dressed in green. She’s handing out shamrock hats for the occasion. Don’t forget to get yours!

Isabelle: Please wear that shamrock hat and celebrate Shamrock Day with me, Mayor! We'll have TONS of fun!I put mine on, and this is how it looks on me:

Wearing my new shamrock hat.There is also a special face-cutout standee to commemorate the holiday. You can be the leprechaun holding the four-leaf clover next to the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Yeah, I think they covered everything except the Lucky Charms.

The leprechaun standee for Shamrock Day.Animals around town will comment about the holiday and your shamrock hat.

Agent S: Happy Shamrock Day! That hat of yours totally rocks! Way to get into the festive spirit!Kidd also warned me about pinching people.

Kidd: Just watch for pinching! Hey! Hands to yourself, J-bot!Tia asked me to collect signatures for a petition called the Spider-Relocation Service. Tom invited me over to his town, so I collected the signatures there.

Charlise: Spider-Relocation Service is a big deal, huh? I never knew...Chevre, Roald, T-Bone, Dora, Charlise, and Cheri all joined the cause.

The completed petition.Tom’s friends Aggie and Vicky were there, and we all hung out at the event plaza. Aggie had a green butt heart balloon.

Green fiends.After Tom ended the session, I returned to Tia to give her the completed petition. She rewarded me with a bingo wheel.

Tia: Whoa! You're amazing! You got all the signatures for my petition, Spider-Relocation Service!Today’s most recent dream visitor was Skylar from EHT. I hope you’re all having a great St. Patrick’s Day! See you next time!
