<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nHer replacement was Cleo the snooty horse. She previously lived in Forest back in 2012<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n On February 12th, I found Tortimer over by the wishing well. It turns out it was time for his winter vacation!<\/p>\n\n\n He wanted me to turn on the lighthouse each day from the 13th through the 19th, and I initially turned down the offer. <\/p>\n\n\n But he didn’t take “no” for an answer. And by the next day, I had changed my mind. I decided to load up the game and turn on the lighthouse.<\/p>\n\n\n On the 14th, I received a bunch of valentines in the mail from my female villagers. Each one had a gift attached, but Emerald sent me a scale. A scale! What kind of Valentine’s Day gift is that? Is she calling me fat? <\/p>\n\n\n\n Maple and Sydney both sent me this letter, saying I’m the one they like the most. <\/p>\n\n\n Sydney sent me a maple bonsai, which would have been funnier if it came from Maple. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n\n\n\n I continued turning on the lighthouse each evening. Last Thursday, I went into an igloo and found Sydney inside. She wanted to play a game where I picked a card to determine the price she would pay me for my mega buzzoid.<\/p>\n\n\n The card I picked showed 880 bells, so she paid me roughly what Nook would have paid me anyway. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I later found a buried item and dug up an Arwing! Nice! (It was a treasure hunt item that Puck buried.) I put the Arwing in my house for now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On Saturday, Hank tried to convince me that his igloos are better than everyone else’s igloos. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n\n\n Yesterday, I received a goodbye letter from Cleo! She sure didn’t stick around long! Her replacement was Mathilda the kangaroo. She previously lived in Forest in 2013-14<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n Today, Tortimer returned from his vacation! He was pleased that I turned on the lighthouse every night, as he asked.<\/p>\n\n\n He gave me some chocolates as my reward for completing the mission. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n Genji later offered me 1,530 bells for the chocolates, and I agreed to sell them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Candi was in an igloo today, and she was talking about her chowder. She asked if the morsel of fish (in her chowder, presumably) had a lot in common with her.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/a><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
