I received Felicity’s goodbye letter in the mail today, as expected. Good luck to you, Felicity.

Just seconds after I read my mail, Scoot approached me, wanting to play a game of hide-and-seek. He gave me 15 minutes to find him, Apollo, and Willow.

Fifteen minutes is a lot of time, so I didn’t rush. But I soon found Apollo hiding behind a tree near the shop.

I later found Scoot behind Big Top’s house, and then I played “hide and sheep” by spotting Willow behind Peaches’s house.

Scoot rewarded me with a mega alloid for winning the game. Apollo pinged me right after the game, giving me a free gold armor suit.

I made my rounds and then headed over to the Roost. It’s K.K. Slider night, and he performed “K.K. Salsa” for me.

That was actually the same song he played for me in New Horizons tonight! Maybe it’s a sign that I should eat some salsa… 😉

When I started up the game tonight, I was genuinely puzzled to see Mayor Tortimer standing outside of town hall. I knew it wasn’t a holiday, and it wasn’t Bug-Off day in this game (since it was held last week)…and Tortimer doesn’t host the Bug-Off in this game anyway. But he was there because the autumn moon (aka the harvest moon) was today.

He gave me a wheat bundle for the occasion. Thanks, Tortimer! Of course I later sold it at the shop…but not for a dollar, because it wasn’t buckwheat.

I wanted to take a screenshot of the autumn moon, and I considered several locations around town. But I ultimately decided to snap the photo outside of the museum.

Inside the museum, I went down to the Roost. K.K. Slider was there for his usual Saturday night show. I asked him for a random song, and he performed “Aloha K.K.” for me.

After the show, Cube asked me for a new catchphrase and I told him to say “in a tray.” I then listened in on a conversation between him and Bluebear. Bluebear asked Cube if he had any recommendations about where to go on vacation. Cube started off by saying he didn’t used to like the snow much, but then he got sidetracked and talked about eating the snow. Bluebear got surprisingly angry that he went off on a tangent, even though it honestly wasn’t bad at all.

Shortly after that, I went into Felicity’s house. I was surprised to see that she was all packed up in boxes. She’s moving out without warning, but I’m not upset about it.

When I circled back around town, I spoke with Tortimer again. He said he loves the moon because it makes him feel round too.

Happy unexpected event day, everyone! 😆 See you next week!

The September Bug-Off (the final one of the year) was held today. Unfortunately, I played too late in the day to participate. But Nat was kind enough to tell me that Apollo was the event’s big winner. He used his eagle eyes to catch a 61-point walkingstick. Congrats, Apollo!

When I visited Big Top’s house, I was surprised to see how many fish he had in his house! That included a big…arapaima? I certainly didn’t catch that for him as a favor, but he must’ve bought it from me over the summer. (They do sometimes offer more than Tom Nook for your catches.)

When I ran into Bluebear outside, she said she was wearing “fishing fashion” even though she doesn’t have a fishing rod. She said she can handle fishing, but she’s not going to become of those “crazy outdoor types.” I don’t think fishing makes you crazy, does it? 😛

It was an odd conversation, if you ask me.

Felicity asked me to deliver an extinguisher to Scoot, and she then rewarded me with 520 bells. I’m not sure why Scoot needed an extinguisher, but I hope his house isn’t on fire! 😛

I went up to the Roost to catch K.K. Slider’s Saturday night show. I asked him for a random song, and he performed “Go K.K. Rider!” for me. Good song!

When I worked my way back around to town hall, I found a fossil in the recycle bin! It was an icthyo torso (not to be confused with an itchy torso). I’m always hoping to find good stuff in the recycling, so it’s nice to occasionally scratch that itch. 😉

Enjoy your weekend, and I’ll be back with another entry next week!
