I’m Not Kicks!

I got some sad news tonight. Whitney the white wolf is weaving. I mean, leaving. She had her furniture all packed up in boxes. It’s sad to see her go, but maybe I’ll still hear her howling in the night when there’s a full moon.

Whitney: I never found a good time to share my big news, so I kept it to myself...

When I walked into Kitty’s house, I found her staring at a large fish. (I think it’s a king salmon). I’m pretty sure she was fantasizing about eating it.

I spotted Butch in the city, and he said he really needed a shoe shine. But it was too late for Kicks, so he wanted me to do it!

Butch: I still need my shoes shined, though... Jeff! Listen carefully: do you own any shoe polish?

Even though it was dry in the city, it was raining in Forest. Poor Static looked so sad about the rain. I almost felt bad for the little grump. 😛

Static: Confound it! After a long day, all I want is some sunshine. Is that so much to ask, buzz me?!
The sun wouldn’t be shining at this time of night anyway, pal.

But I took advantage of the rain to do a little fishing, and I caught myself a coelacanth in the ocean!

Dresserish

Whitney asked me for some “dresserish” furniture tonight. Is that even a word? I don’t think so…but at least I knew what she meant.

Whitney: As long as it's something dresserish, I bet it'll satisfy me, snappy!

Nook ‘n’ Go didn’t have any dressers for sale, but I decided to be nice and give Whitney the mummy’s casket out of my house. She liked it, and she thanked me by giving me a manhole cover.

Whitney: I'd like you to have a manhole cover as a token of my thanks, snappy.
Uh, thanks? I guess I’ll use it to cover my manhole.

I spotted Pascal standing on the southern bridge in town…

I gave him a scallop, and in return, he gave me a ship deck (carpeting). He also warned me about squid cookies. Don’t worry, there’s no risk of me ever trying one of those.

Pascal: You ever baked a squid cookie? Not good, maaan. Trust me.

I spotted a scorpion, so I stepped back, got my net out and approached it. But as I did, I noticed there were actually two scorpions out at the same time!

I swung at the closest one, but I missed…and it got me. I was disappointed. If I was going to die anyway, I should have just ran through and let them both chase me just to see which one would win. 😀

Kitty asked me to make a delivery to Roald. So I took the package over, and Roald was quite surprised to find a graduation gown inside.

Roald: I don't even believe this! A graduation gown! Awwww, man...

Roald’s shock turned to sadness, and he said Kitty was capable of some hardcore, ruthless jokes. I’m guessing this means Roald never graduated, and Kitty seems to be rubbing it in.

Roald: Kitty doesn't look like it, but she's capable of some hardcore, ruthless jokes.

Aww, that made me feel bad for Roald. Even though I didn’t like Roald in Wild World, I’m starting to like City Folk Roald.

When I returned to Kitty, she gave me a ranch wardrobe for making the delivery. I could have used this earlier, so that I wouldn’t have had to give my mummy’s casket to Whitney. Oh well.

Puck Trolls Limberg

Shortly after starting up the game tonight, Whitney asked me to play a game of hide-and-seek. She gave me ten minutes to find her, Bones, and Sterling.

Whitney: The time limit is 10 minutes! To win, you have to find all 3 of us in that time.

It only took me a few seconds to find Sterling, who was hiding behind my house. A few minutes later, I found Whitney peeking through the trees near the gate.

And with three and a half minutes remaining on the timer, I found Bones hiding behind Kitty’s house. Whitney gave me a tall quazoid as my prize for winning the game.

Immediately after the game, Sterling pinged me. He wanted a new greeting, and I told him to say “good knight.”

Sterling: Good knight!

At Able Sisters, I bought a green tie-dye shirt and changed into it. I was a bit tired of the firefighter tee, since I’ve been wearing it the whole summer.

Puck asked me to make a delivery to Limberg, and I agreed to help out (for Puck’s sake, not Limberg’s). And I’m glad I did, because Puck seemed to be trolling Limberg; Puck sent him a waitress shirt! Limberg hated it so much that he even “woofed,” like a dog! 😀

Limberg: ...Woof. That's...quite a waitress shirt. Yeah, that looks like something Puck would make.

When I returned to Puck, he gave me a gold screen wall for helping out. Anytime, Puck!

Kitty was sick, so I bought some medicine for her. Now if only I could buy her a ticket out of town. She’s been here for over two and a half years! Why hasn’t she asked to move out?

I noticed a new house in town, and I found Mitzi the cat inside! I like Mitzi; I had her in my Bananas town before, and she’s cute. Welcome to Forest, Mitzi!

Mitzi: I just moved into town, and I really haven't had time to get settled yet. My name is Mitzi.
