Final Fireworks of 2014

I found Joan this morning and she was selling turnips for 109 bells apiece. I bought 2,800 of them.

Joan: The asking price is 109 bells per turnip. What do you think, kiddo?When I checked my mail, I found that Wishy sent me a rococo dresser. Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Region from Region was my most recent dream visitor. Hmm, I wonder what region Region is in.

Luna: According to the latest feedback, a client named Region from Region enjoyed your dream.Gala told me she was going to move out of town on September 5th, but I talked her out of moving. I want her picture first.

Gala: So I wanted to talk to you about something... I'm leaving town on the 5th of next month.Rolf was still sick, so I took him some medicine again. He said he expects to be all better by tomorrow morning.

Rolf: ...Argh. Tastes nasty!At 8:00, I opened my gate for the fireworks festival. Chris and Squishy came over to visit. Squishy drew a “J” in the air. Actually, it was just a party popper.

Squishy fires off a party popper.We visited with Octavian for a while. Octavian told me it felt like the town tree watches us all!

Octavian: That tree in the event plaza has a weird sorta vibe to it, like it's watching us...At the event plaza, Isabelle gave me a bulb bopper.

Isabelle: When you wear that bulb bopper, you'll shine just as bright as the fireworks!Sprinkle kept telling us all how romantic she thought the fireworks were.

Sprinkle: I hope SOMEONE in town is taking advantage of this utterly romantic fireworks show...Shortly before 8:30, T. Zelda also came over to visit. She kept burying pitfalls and falling into them.

TZ in a pitfall.Someone was dropping fountain fireworks too. One time, Squishy nearly got her beans burned.

Squishy: ahhhhh!We hung out in Molly’s house for a while, talking about the New 3DS, Smash Bros., and Molly’s love life.

Jeff: 3DS and SNES had a XABY.T. Zelda left after a while, but the rest of us hung out outside watching fireworks.

Fireworks show.Of course we made fun of Chris’ hair, saying it looked like he dipped his head in a cotton-candy machine. I advised him to start up another Youtube channel devoted to pancake reviews. He talked as if he might consider it! The world can only hope.

Jeff: Not cotton candy-y enough.We also talked about Tomodachi Life. Chris said that in his game, Batman and the Joker are best friends. And Squishy said that in her game, I married Pauline!

When it got close to 10:00, Squishy said she had to go, so I went ahead and ended the session for the night. I later let Wendy come over to shop before I put the game away for the night.

Saturday Town Hopping

Tom had his gate open when I started up the game today, so I headed over to Tomville for a visit. His friend Goldcity was also there, and it looked like his eyes never opened. But he was just using an uncommon face that I rarely see anyone using.

Goldcity's uncommon eyes.Tony also came to visit, while I was speaking with Savannah the zebra.

Savannah: My name is Savannah! I'm a resident here, y'all.However, Tom noticed some of his flowers were missing, so he disconnected us. He said his flowers returned after the disconnection. He reopened his gate, and I returned. Tom’s friend Jules also came over for a visit, and it was good to see her again.

Jules visiting Tomville.But after a few minutes, we got disconnected; it was surely an accidental one this time. But at this point, I decided to take a break from the game for a bit.

Later on, I returned to find Saharah in my town. I paid her for some wallpaper and carpet, and she installed this kitschy wall and backyard lawn in my house.

A kitschy wall and backyard lawn.Molly asked me for some furniture, and I gave her an emperor butterfly that I had in my pockets. She thanked me and rewarded me with her picture!

Molly: Here's my Molly's pic! Thank you so much for helping me!Octavian was nearby, and I heard the sound of a flea jumping on him. I got my net out and caught the flea. He responded “Thanks, sucker!” But was he talking to me or the flea?

Octavian: I was wondering why I was so itchy! Thanks, sucker!Over by my modern clock, Agent S had already heard about the flea!

Agent S: So, Sweet-J, I heard you have a flea.She offered to give me a raglan shirt for it, and I accepted the trade. But then Gala noticed that I had a raglan shirt!

Gala: I'm not really sure what a raglan shirt looks like. I'm painting without a reference.She gave me a vertigo tee for it, but the chain ended there. Nobody wanted the vertigo tee. đŸ˜€

Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Josh from Sundown was my most recent dream visitor. And in Club LOL, I checked out the Saturday night music performance. I asked K.K. for a random song, and he played Steep Hill for me. Good choice.

K.K. performs for me and Benedict.Madisyn told me that she just got her tweeter, and then she opened her gate. But I was too slow, as her town filled up before I got there. But she let me know when someone left, so I visited with Madisyn and Laile. While Laile was writing on the bulletin board, I released a moth.

Releasing a moth on Laile and Madisyn.I explored the town a bit.

Exploring Madisyn's town Johto.And I met Lucky, the bandaged (mummy?) dog.

Lucky: I'd offer you a snack, but I'm fresh out. Next time, I'll be sure to have more on hand, rockin.He has a lot of Egyptian furniture…and then a lovely bed?

Jeff: The lovely bed is so out of place.In the train station, Madisyn and Laile put on their wet suits.

Madisyn and Laile putting on wet suits.And they spotted a giant down on the dock!

A giant-sized Jeff on the dock.After a very brief trip out to the island, I left the town of Johto.

I went to visit Wendy’s town a bit later, where I met Kiki.

Kiki: My name is Kiki! I'm a resident here, you pig.There was a meteor shower in Wendy’s town of Pawnee, so I stopped to wish on a shooting star. But who’s that sneaking up on me?!

Wendy (wearing Majora's Mask) sneaks up behind me.Majora Wendy sat on a stump and peed used a watering can.

Wendy uses her watering can while sitting on a stump.I gave Wendy some bushes and cedar saplings I had for her, and once she was finished planting them, we went back to Forest. Wendy had some pears to sell, and she also did some shopping. While on Main Street, she realized how my former villager Yuka got her name.

Wendy: YukalyptusWe then finished up with a quick trip out to the island, where we went on a beetle-catching tour. Wendy won.

Tortimer: Wendy gets 2 medals, and Jeff gets 1 medal!After that, I ended the session. Before Re-Tail closed for the night, I went in and sold my turnips for a rather large loss. I was checking with everyone that was on today, but nobody had decent prices. And this was the first week that I bought 3,000 turnips instead of my usual 1,000, too. What a pain.

Taming the Tiger

I saw something buried by my tree stump today, so I dug it up. It turns out, it was a rare mushroom!

Look! I dug up a rare mushroom!When I went past Rolf’s house, I saw that he was home today. That’s pretty unusual, so I went inside to say hello. There was a reason he was indoors: He’s sick!

Rolf: ...Ham, we're only been buds a short time, but I think my cheese is baked.I ran into Sprinkle on my central bridge, and she told me she was planning on moving out on September 3rd.

Sprinkle: I know it's totally out of the blue, and I hope I don't shock you. But I'm thinking of moving.I had to stop and think about what I was going to tell her. As tempting as it was to let her leave, I decided to keep her around until I get her villager picture.

Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me Becca from Westeros was my most recent dream visitor. Later on, I took a chessboard rug over to George. Or maybe that’s King George?

Visiting King George.After putting the game away for a few hours, I remembered that I still needed to buy medicine for Rolf! So I bought some from the Emporium and then headed over that way. I made a stop in Kidd’s house to say hello, and I saw that Big Top was also visiting him.

Big Top: Hey! You're here to hang out with Kidd too? Very cool, lil top!Kidd actually made a reference to someone who hasn’t been on my friend roster for a while. I guess once a name is in their memory, it’s there to stay. But after I was done chatting with Big Top and Kidd, I finally delivered the medicine to Rolf.

Rolf takes his medicine.He apologized for all the trouble. It’s kind of odd seeing a big tough tiger act so politely. It took a cold to tame the tiger.

Rolf: ...I'm very sorry... for all the trouble I'm causing you...
