Ranting About Bones

I’ve had a few campers at the campsite lately, but none that I’ve wanted to invite into town. Not when I get animals like Jambette’s little sister here.

Diva: I'm Diva! And you're... Jeff? Nice to meet you!
And she’s actually the better-looking sister. Yikes.

Boots asked me for some fruit, so I gave him a perfect orange. He loved it, and he rewarded me with a nine lamp. What a reversal…it used to be me giving him number lamps!

Boots: Here you go! It's a gently used nine lamp! Enjoy!
Will he give me an eight lamp next? 😛

Yesterday, Boots asked me to play a game of hide-and-seek. He gave me ten minutes to find him, Agent S, and Boots. I found Agent S almost immediately, and she was not happy about it.

Agent S: No, no, no!

Before a minute had gone off the timer, I also found Boots near the campsite.

And less than a minute after that, I found Hornsby! His horn gave him away.

I won the game in under two minutes, which is one of the best games I’ve had. I wondered if I would get a better prize for winning so fast, but Hornsby just gave me a common bed. Booooringgggg.

Today, Big Top asked me to catch a shark for him. I’m not going to do it, but I let him think I might. He told me to go work my magic, up his nose. Uh, no thanks.

Big Top: Awesome! Well, go work your magic, up my nose!

I wanted to speak with Bones, but not surprisingly, he was out on a snack run.

I'm out on a snack run! -Bones

I’ve been playing earlier in the day this week (and even in the daylight hours some days) specifically because I was trying to find Bones. And virtually every day, he’s out on a snack run and he’s nowhere in town! Where does he go? It’s frustrating, because I’m trying to get his picture, yet I can never even track him down to speak to him!

I try using the megaphone, but he never responds. Either Agent S responds, Kapp’n responds, or it says he’s not around. Day after day after day. I’m starting to dislike him just for never being around. He seems to be avoiding me, and it’s really annoying. I could understand if it was just once in a while, but this happens more often than not.

He’s probably in a building on Main Street somewhere, but it can take forever to track someone down…especially with all those rooms in the museum. Besides, even if he is on Main Street, he would just talk about being on Main Street. You can’t have normal conversations when they’re up there. Okay, I’m done ranting now. 😛 Sorry about that.

Anyway, my recent dream visitors have been Sarah from Stardew, Maisie from Cairo, Galaxy from Aperture, Chloe from New Leaf, Kai from Awvillle, Sabrinah from London, George from Kamino, Haris from Delfino, and Rose from Newcorn. Thanks for stopping by, and have a good weekend!

  1. I’m also (this is the same anon who commented on the entry where you let Bob leave) in the same boat as you regarding Vesta’s potential replacement, though granted it’s only been a couple days in my case.

    As for Bones, this is why I wish villagers were still forced home when you opened the gate like in Wild World.

    1. Thanks. I finally saw him yesterday. But today, he was back in hiding even though I played early enough in the day for him to be awake. Congrats on the fossil collection! 😀

  2. I can relate to the issue with Bones. Ever since T.I.Y opened in my second town, Marshal has been going up there or will be in the Roost. Although I have his picture, I am getting really annoyed as I’m afraid that he’ll be considering moving if he stays up there too much.
