Jeff's ACCF Blog

I got a letter from Aurora in the mail, thanking me for the medicine I took her while she was sick. She sent me a lovely lamp as a present.

When I went to visit Jay, I found that his furniture was now all packed up in boxes and he’s ready to move out of town. Sorry, bud. I tried.

Outside, Tutu reminded me that Festivale is coming up on Monday. I may not participate though; Festivale is really kind of annoying, to be honest.

I saw a huge fish shadow in the river, so I knew it had to be something good. I grabbed my rod and fished out a stringfish! That’s a nice 15,000 bells!

There was a meteor shower in the skies over Forest, so I stopped to watch a few of them go by. I was reminded of the first time I saw a meteor shower in ACCF, and how exciting it would be each time one (or two) went by. I have a lot of memories with this game.

Benedict asked me to take a gift to Alli, and I did. It was a shirt that Alli didn’t care for, but Benedict still thanked me for making the delivery. He rewarded me with 552 bells, naturally.

Today is Groundhog Day in America, so Tortimer was awake and outside of town hall to hand out gifts for the occasion.

The gift is a Resetti model that you can put in your home. Although I’m not sure why you would want to. Maybe it could make a good alarm clock; it could yell at you to wake up and then make you apologize for wasting its time. 😛

I went in to visit Jay, and surprisingly, he still wasn’t packed up for his move. Once again, I had the opportunity to tell him to stay, so I gave it another try. But he insisted that it’s too late; he just wants to have some more awesome memories before he goes. I think he’s just trying to distract himself from feeling blue.

Aurora was still sick with a cold, so I bought some medicine for her once again.

Mott and Alli were having a big argument near Nook ‘n’ go this evening, and then Chow jumped in and started a conversation with Mott. He said a real man needs to be even tempered and relaxed. I know the conversation was just a coincidence, but it sure fit what was going on at the time!

Mott asked me for some distinguished furniture today, and I told him I’d help him out. I had my doubts about finding anything like that, though. But things changed when I went into Nook ‘n’ Go. There was a tea vase on sale, and I thought it looked kind of fancy. So I bought it, took it back to Mott, and he liked it! He rewarded me with 752 bells.

The next house I entered belonged to Aurora; she was sick with a cold. So I headed straight back to Nook ‘n’ Go to buy some medicine. I then took it back to Aurora. Get well soon, ice cube.

Outside, Static told me he was looking for a new catchphrase to replace “retweet me.” That one was originally Twiggy’s phrase. I hate when they spread catchphrases to other villagers, because it often ruins the pun. I told Static to just say “shocking” for now.

Broccolo told me he loves winter because it means free snow cones. He told me he takes a bunch of snow and pours juice over it. But he warned me not to try it myself, saying that only he is qualified to do it because he won the regional snow-cone eating contest seven times.

Jay was locked out of his house, so I tried fishing to find his key. I caught this pond smelt in the waterfall…and I also caught my character making an awkward pose/face.

I took the key to Jay and he thanked me and gave me a lovely carpet. I didn’t have the heart to tell him I didn’t care for it.

He immediately went into his house, which was good to see. A lot of times, you’ll return a villager’s key, only for them to stay outside all night anyway. But I followed him inside, and he mentioned his upcoming move. Again, I told him to stick around, but he said it’s too late and I can’t stop him. I’m not sure that’s true, but oh well. Jay’s kinda cool, but I’m not going to bend over backwards to try to get him to stay. If he goes, he goes.
