Rowan’s Indecision

I saw Nate tonight and decided to speak with him (for a change). He told me that K.K.’s songs are like ice cream for your ears.

Nate: K.K. Slider's songs are cool, sweet, and smooth. They're like ice cream for my ears!If nothing else, that analogy reminded me to visit K.K. in the Roost. I asked him for a random song and he played “Only Me” for me (and Octavian).

I listen as K.K. performs Only Me. Octavian is also present, enjoying some coffee.Back outside, I bumped into Rowan. He told me he wanted to move out of town. I asked him not to leave, but he said he was leaving anyway. I figured I’d try to convince him to stay again if I see him, but I’m not going to go out of my way to keep him around. Even though I like him, he’s no Bob.

Rowan: So just help me make sure my last memories of this place are extra awesome, rowr!I found both of today’s snowballs, so I rolled up a snowman. He was pleased with his appearance and declared himself an eligible snowbachelor. Melba seemed to take notice right away. Stay away from her, Snowman! Even though you may want to go down under with her, she’ll melt your heart!

Snowman: This will be the year I finally hit number one on Precipitation Monthly's list of eligible snowbachelors!I spoke with Elmer, and he told me lost a race to Octavian. A horse lost a race to an octopus? For your sake, I hope you were racing underwater.

Elmer: I was in a race a while ago. Octavian came in first place, Avery came in second place...Just a few minutes later, I saw Rowan again. He again talked about moving out, and he gave me another chance to save him. This time, he agreed to stay in town. That was easy.

Rowan: Your tears have, like, rusted the iron boulder of my heart, rowr.And last but not least, I spoke with Miranda. She told me that Nate and Avery have been fighting lately. She’s afraid it was going to end up in a brutal food fight, with stew thrown all over town. And that’s a bad thing how?

Miranda: I bet there's going to be a food fight before long. With lentil stew thrown all over town!
