Becoming Amelia’s Enemy

This morning, Joan was selling turnips for 109 bells apiece. Despite the high price, I bought 2,000 turnips from her.

Joan: The asking price is 109 bells per turnip. What do you think, kiddo?This evening, Agent S asked me to play a game of hide-and-seek with her. I agreed, and she gave me 15 minutes to find her, Amelia, and Sprinkle.

Agent S: Here are the rules: the three of us here will hide, and you'll have 15 minutes to find us. Got it?I quickly found Amelia and then Agent S up a tree.

Agent S: Wow, I thought I was totally seek proof, up a tree.Three minutes later, I found Sprinkle hiding behind the zen bell. She seemed disgusted by the sight of me.

Sprinkle: Eeeek! Yuck, youMy pockets were full, but Agent S told me she’d mail my prize to me. And indeed, it was in my mailbox when I returned to my house. She sent me a birdbath! But I don’t think I’ll fit in it…

Agent S: But you can't carry anything more, can you? Don't worry, I'll send your prize in the mail!When Amelia insulted my clothes yesterday, she made herself a new enemy. I’ve been fairly neutral towards her, but now that I see how rude she is, all bets are off. So I introduced her to my golden net. Solid gold, like a hit record. The hits just keep coming! She didn’t appreciate the hits, though, and she threatened me! Did you hear that, everyone? Amelia Airhead is threatening me!

Amelia: Hey! Bonk me with that thing again, Jeff, and I'll show you how to actually use it!First she said I “bonked” her, and then she said I “plonked” her. I guess her vocabulary is limited to words that end in “onk.” Maybe next, she’ll say she’s gotta donk.

Amelia: Hey! I hope you're just clumsy and not straight-up mean. It's not nice to plonk someone like that.I got tired of messing with her though, so I moved on to some more intelligent town residents: The snowmen. I rolled a 4 and a 6 for snowman bingo.

My two bingo snowmen.I later saw Amelia again, this time down on the beach. Maybe the hits to the head caused her to see stars, because she swore she saw some UFOs.

Amelia: I'm with you, Jeff. I've seen the UFOs. Late at night. When everything is quiet...
