Month: October 2020

I received Vivian’s goodbye letter in the mail yesterday. She attached her picture to the letter. While I have received her picture before, it was actually from April Fools’ Day and I never really knew if I truly “earned” it or not. But now, I know for sure that I have indeed earned it.

I found a lost item on the ground directly behind the police station. It turned out to be Big Top’s item, although it was just an empty bag!

An empty bag is not a lost item, it’s litter. But still, he gave me a happi tee for returning the bag.

I found Inkwell’s house plot in the eastern part of town, near the campsite. It was almost exactly the same spot where Vivian lived, but apparently up two spaces.

Today, Big Top asked me to catch a cherry salmon for him. I reluctantly agreed to help, and I was just hoping it wouldn’t take me half the day to find one. But I was pleasantly surprised to catch a cherry salmon on my very first attempt!

I took it back to Big Top, and he gave me a flashy suit for helping out.

Inkwell has moved in, so I went to his house to say hello. Welcome to Forest, Inkwell!

We may not have many turf wars here in Forest, but I’m sure he’ll feel right at home here, lickety-splat.

After putting some money into the bank, my account balance reached 118 million bells.

According to Luna, my recent dream visitors include Mario ID from Nook Inc and Rishi from Threed. Thanks for stopping by, and have a good weekend!

Jack sent me a letter telling me to get ready for Halloween, and he attached a monster mask to the letter. I wouldn’t normally wear the monster mask, but I had a bad case of bedhead. 😛 And Shampoodle was already closed for the day–they close at the absurdly early time of 8 p.m.!

Lolly and Claudia both told me I’m a world traveler again. I don’t know why my label keeps changing back and forth, but I’ll gladly take this over being called a bell pincher. 😛

Rolf asked me to bury a time capsule for him, and of course I agreed to help out.

Elvis the lion was at the campsite. I’m not trying to be cruel, but he’s kinda ugly. 😛 Then again, I don’t really like any of the lions in the series.

I decided it was finally time to change things up in Forest. I scanned in a Splatoon amiibo, and summoned Inkwell to the campground. I told him to move into town.

I told him to “talk to” Vivian about moving out.

I’ve mentioned this when discussing my plans before, but it’s nothing personal against Vivian. I like her, and I wouldn’t mind keeping her around longer. But the problem is that if I kicked Claudia out instead, I would be raising the number of amiibo villagers in town…and they never ask to move out on their own.

But Vivian has had a lengthy (3 years, 10 months) stay in Forest…so it’s not like I’m rushing her out of town. 😛 And when Inkwell moves in, that will make Claudia eligible to leave town as well. So this should set the gears in motion for some villager movement, after a whopping 19 months of no villager movement at all.

Of course, I went in to say goodbye to her. Best of luck, Vivian!

According to Luna, my most recent dream visitor was Morrigan from Courtlyn. Thanks for stopping by! I’ll be back with another entry in a couple days as I welcome Inkwell to town.
