On Monday, I received a goodbye letter in the mail from Admiral. He has set sail for a new adventure somewhere else.
Over in Acre B-5, I found a new house just north of Puck’s house. Rocco the hippo (the overgrown construction sign himself) has moved in. I’ve seen a lot of Rocco throughout the series in multiple towns, although he hasn’t lived in GameCube Forest since 2013.
His arrival also means that both of my temporary villagers are hippos, with Lulu being the other one. I can confidently say that a hippo will be moving out next month, although I don’t know which one it will be.
Genji reminded me that there will a fishing tournament every Sunday in June, and there will be a prize for the winner. But he doesn’t care about the prize itself, he just cares about winning.
Over at the dump, I was surprised to find an asteroid! Wow, even space junk is ending up in the dump! It must have really cratered in value.
now it attracts only flies.
Today, there was a treasure hunt underway! I saw on the bulletin board that someone buried an ivory piano in one of the “C” acres!
A piano is a big prize! But I know I’ll be able to find it if I just calm down and compose myself. 🎼
Anyway, it was raining pretty hard in Forest today. Candi thought the rain was miserable, but she admitted it must be great for snails. 🐌
She even said she was a bit jealous of the snails! That’s a weird thing to say.
Puck wasn’t a fan of the rain, either. He said he usually just goes straight to bed when it rains like this!
I would have thought penguins would enjoy the rain, but Puck is the polar opposite.
Baabara was down in the dumps too, but not because of the rain. It looked like she must’ve had an argument with Candi. Yeah, speaking to Candi can do that sometimes. 😛
Surprisingly, Belle seemed to be the happiest villager in town! She even said she enjoyed seeing me!
It’s rare to see Belle in such a good moo‘d! You know it feels like a weird day when Belle is happy, and I could actually relate to Baabara! What’s going on today? 😛
But then a few minutes later, I ran into Lulu, and she insulted my clothes.
And with that, order was restored in Forest. 😛
But to be fair, Lulu actually gave me a free outfit (a stormy shirt). It seemed to fit the situation, so I decided to keep it and I later put it on.
Over near the police station (behind the town map to be exact), I found the buried treasure of an ivory piano!
Score! I won the grand prize!
Sometimes you have to just weather the storm and tune out the noise to make it through. Hang in there, fellow Animal Crossers!
See you next month!
Update: I recently posted my latest GameCube Moments video, so I hope you’ll check it out:
I actually got admiral in one of my GameCube towns so he must have left for sotowood
