Opal Moves In

I received my monthly letter from the Bank of Nintendo, informing me that I earned 99,999 bells in interest on my account. That helped my balance top 28 million bells.

Your current balance is 28,040,000 bells.While walking around town tonight, I spotted Pascal from across the river. I’m not used to seeing him from this angle!

Spotting Pascal in town from across the river.I grabbed a scallop that was attached to a letter, and then went over to talk to him on the bridge. He scoffed at the notion of people going camping, suggesting they could just hang out in their garage for a weekend. He then gave me a keg, jumped into the river, and swam out of my life.

Pascal: Camping, maaaan. Why not just hang out in your garage for a weekend?Anyway, now that November is here, you can find mushrooms scattered around town. Each day, one of them will actually be a piece of mush furniture in disguise.

I thought it was just a mushroom, but it was really a mush bed!Some of the mushrooms will be quite valuable. I found an elegant mushroom (worth 10,000 bells), as well as this rare mushroom (worth 16,000 bells) that was buried underground! The rare mushrooms will only appear if you have achieved perfect town status, though.

Look at that! I dug up a rare mushroom!I found a new house in town, and it belongs to Opal the green elephant. Her mouth is on the side of her face (much like Dizzy).

Opal: By the way, my name is Opal.Back outside, Rod asked me for a new greeting. I told him to say “Oh my Rod!”

Rod: Oh my Rod!!When I visited Savannah, she asked me to catch a pill bug for her. I agreed to help, but it ended up taking me longer than I anticipated. I had to run all over town multiple times, banging every rock I could find. But eventually, I found her precious pill bug and took it back to her. She thanked me by giving me a kiddie carpet.

Savannah: Oh, wow! Is that... It is! It's a pill bug!
It’s a tough pill to swallow.

Thanks for stopping by, and have a good weekend!

Zebra for a Zebra

As I started up the game tonight, I found Alli’s goodbye letter in the mail.

Alli's goodbye letter.When I spoke with Bluebear, she made it clear that she was scritchy itchy. That’s because there was a flea on her. No wonder she was feeling blue. I helped her out by catching the flea with my net. Savannah looked on from across the river.

I caught a flea! Itchy itchy!I had a chat with Savannah, and she asked me to catch a fish for her. Interestingly, the zebra asked me to catch a zebra turkeyfish!

Savannah: Old dog, if you happen to catch a zebra turkeyfish, ya think I can have it?I then went fishing in the ocean to help out my favorite villager. A few minutes later, I returned with a zebra turkeyfish. Savannah thanked me by giving me a lattice wall.

Savannah: Here. I want you to have a lattice wall as a little token of how much I appreciate this, in stripes!
Lattice be grateful for our daily fish.

I checked in on Benedict, and he was standing at the back of his room, hardly moving. It’s almost like he was his own gyroid!

Benedict stands still at the back of his house.
Yay! I found a plump cluckoid!

Alli Goner

When I visited Alli tonight, I saw that she had all her furniture packed up in boxes. She said I was just in time to see her all sweaty and gross.

Alli: No, no! I'm sorry! I didn't mean it! It's just that I'm moving away soon...so I'm a little fragile.I kind of like Alli, but I’m not really upset that she’s leaving. She’s had a fairly long stay here in Forest. Bon voyage, Alli! Later, gator!

Twiggy asked me to make a delivery to Broccolo, so I went searching for the mouse. Once I found him, I gave him the item (some ceramic tile). He told me that he loves presents…and men. Alrighty then.

Broccolo: A gift from Twiggy? Neat! I Love presents, and men!When I returned to Twiggy and told her the news, she rewarded me with 520 bells. I’ve been noticing that amount several times lately. Is 520 the new 552?

I made a trip out to the city, but nothing was going on. When I returned to Forest, I ran into Broccolo again. He asked me to make a delivery to Tank for him. Tank was in his house, so it was an easy task. The gift was a one-ball shirt, and he really seemed to enjoy it.

Tank: Oh, a one-ball shirt. Shirts like these are really comfy because they're elastic and stretchy.
One-ball shirt: Comfy.
One-ball pants: Not so much.

I returned to Broccolo with the news, and he gave me a better reward: a gold stereo! That’s more like it!

Rod was locked outside of his house, but it was late and I didn’t feel like fishing for Rod’s rod. He’ll have to sleep outside tonight, even if he ends up being reel tired. See you all next time!
