New Month, White Rabbit

October is here, and I received a letter in the mail from Jack. He told me to start saving up candy for Halloween.

Loyal subject, October 31st is on its way! Time to get ready for Halloween! Round up all the candy you can so you can give it to me on the big night!! -Jack (Czar of Halloween)
Oh, and the grass is officially ugly now.

While I certainly enjoy the fall/autumn season (at least the early fall), Sterling isn’t a big fan. In fact, he said he’d rank it dead last out of all the seasons!

Sterling: ...Fall, huh? I'd have to rank fall last out of all the seasons.

Mitzi was sick with a cold today, so I bought some medicine for the poor kitty cat.

Mitzi: I hate being alone when I'm sick... I want someone to care for me and bring me medicine... Mew.
She’s cute.

Outside, I spotted a balloon present flying overhead. I got my slingshot out and shot it down. There was a starman inside.

I am invincible!

In the spot where Antonio once lived (many years ago), I found a new house. Unfortunately, Tiffany the white rabbit was inside. I kinda don’t like her.

Tiffany: Oh! Well, hello there! I'm surprised that I have visitors already, bunbun!

Kapp’n drove me out to the city, and Phineas was there, handing out goodies. I asked for a balloon, and he gave me a cyan one. But he didn’t want to give me anything else. 😛

Phineas: You want another one? That seems a little greedy, don't you think?

At my house, I swapped out my ranch bed for a spooky bed. It is the season for Halloween stuff, after all!

Loveless Limberg

I received Whitney’s goodbye letter in the mail today. She used some seasonally-appropriate stationery to send the letter.

To Jeff, I've decided to move away from Forest. It's hard to say bye to good friends like you. So I won't. Because I'm SURE we'll meet again somewhere! -From: Whitney

I listened in on a conversation between Goldie and Limberg near town hall. Goldie asked Limberg what he wanted for his next birthday, and he said he wanted true love!

Limberg: Man, you're makin' me think... I hate thinking... I dunno, maybe...true love...or some junk?
He wants you, Goldie.

Goldie felt bad that Limberg was so lonely, and they both left the conversation depressed.

I guess the moral of the story is not to ask people what they want for their birthday. 😀

Meanwhile, Static was hiding inside behind a phone box asking me for a kimono. Not exactly the most normal conversation, but hey, it’s Static. I told him I’d keep an eye out for a kimono (but I didn’t find one tonight).

Static: Sooo, old dog... If you happen to see a kimono, would you get it for me?

Over by Able Sisters, Puck wanted my oak silk moth to remind him of me. I agreed to give it to him, but he ended up giving me 1,663 bells for it. Not bad!

Puck: Hey, could I have your oak silk moth to remind me of you?

I’ve also been playing in my other town of Mushroom lately, and I just put up a new video tonight. In episode 26 of Mario Plays ACCF, Mario donates to the town fund to build a new bridge. He also says goodbye to one of his good buddies that’s been in Mushroom since the beginning. And there’s this…

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!
