Pink Trees, Hide and Fail

It’s a nice, sunny day here in Forest. And being early April, the regular trees are pink this time of year.

Two pink trees in my town (Animal Crossing: City Folk).It’s Sunday, so I took the bus to the city to check for new emotes. I’ve been trying to see Frillard again, since he hasn’t made an appearance in almost a year, but no luck. Phineas was in the city though, and he gave me an orange balloon. I also saw Mac and Lolly, who are two animals that I’d like to have as villagers.

Then I went back to my town and started watering my flowers. I was happy to find two new black roses had popped up. I was almost done watering when I stopped to talk to Chief.

Chief: Then I track down my prey--er--FRIENDS to win the game. You wanna try? I'll let you be the hunter!That’s right, he offered to play hide and seek, with him, Tipper, and Daisy. Since I haven’t played hide and seek for a long time, I agreed to hunt him and his friends down. Fifteen minutes seemed like plenty of time to find them all (and it usually is), so I didn’t rush. I went on and finished watering my last few flowers. After circling around town, this is what I saw when I reached my house:

Chief peeks out from behind my house during a game of hide-and-seek in ACCF.I always think it looks funny when they’re hiding and peeking their head out like that. Shortly after this, I completed one circle around my town and had only found one animal, so I started another go-round.

This time around, I found Tipper hiding behind the Able Sisters shop. I completed a second circle around Forest, and time was running out. I couldn’t find Daisy! At times like this, having a nice town really hurts. Because with all the flowers everywhere, you can’t hold the run button and scamper around quickly or else I’d be destroying the flowers I’ve worked so hard to breed.

And indeed, time ran out without me ever finding Daisy. She must have had a good hiding spot. Hanging my head in shame, I decided it was time to wrap it up for the day. I’ll get you next time, Daisy!
