Meeting Benedict

After starting up the game tonight, I went inside my house. There they were…stairs!

For the first time, there were stairs going up!Finally, a second floor. but wait…it’s only 4 x 4?!

My new (small) second-floor room.That was definitely disappointing. Second floors in previous games weren’t that small. I’m sure Tom Nook will be happy to expand it, though…for an arm and a leg.

Back outside, I ran into Yuka. She wanted me to catch a tadpole for her.

Yuka: I've been trying to get my hands on a tadpole, but I just can't catch one.With me being the pleasant person that I am, I told her no.

Yuka: No? It wasn't that big of a request. But if you can't...you can't. Maybe another time, Jeff.After that, I went to go meet my newest neighbor (and Yuka’s next-door neighbor), Benedict the rooster.

Benedict: Oh, um, I'm not ready for visitors yet. I'm Benedict, and I just moved here today, uh-hoo.And in T&T Mart, I saw that they had a slingshot for sale! I bought it!

Timmy: Ah, a slingshot! A fine item, yes?Next, I stopped in Nook Homes, and Tom Nook informed me that I now owe him 298,000 bells. Ouch. That tiny floor wasn’t even worth it.

Tom Nook: Yes, yes, the trifling cost of your addition comes to 298,000 bells. Pocket change, really.That about wraps up my short night in Forest, but here is the latest Inside the Treehouse video. This time, they talk about furniture and pants. What an odd combination.
