Chrissy Says Goodbye

Chip sent me a letter in the mail, congratulating me for winning the fishing tournament last weekend. He included a silver trophy as my prize.

Bunnie approached me tonight and said that a Persian rug was my lucky item. I thought she was going to offer to sell me one, but instead, she gave it to me for free. She called herself a good luck fairy.

Bunnie: So, guess what! I'm gonna be your good-luck fairy, toasty!I went in to see Chrissy, and she was all packed up! She’s moving out of town. Honestly, I won’t miss her much, but she was fairly nice to me while she was here. Enjoy hopping down the bunny trail, Chrissy.

Chrissy: Hiya, Boy J! I know this is sudden, but I've decided to move to another town.It was pretty late when I played tonight, so I was surprised to see Lily outside. There was a good reason for that, though: She locked herself out of her house.

Lily: Say, J-pie! have you seen a key lying around, in a pond?Frobert asked me to make a delivery to Bunnie, so I tracked her down again and gave her the package. It contained a shirt, and she asked for privacy while changing…even though she was out in public, with Pascal and Broccolo also nearby.

Bunnie: And now, to try it on! Um...privacy please!I went down to the beach to look for a scallop for Pascal, and fortunately, I found one. I returned to give it to him, and he gave me an anchor in exchange. He then started talking about aliens before jumping into the river.

Pascal: Aliens, maaaan. You can't fake that stuff.After several fishing attempts, I found Lily’s key! I won’t do this for just any frog, you know.

I caught a key! ...Whose key is this?I took it back to her, and she was glad to have her key back. However, she still didn’t go in her house; she continued to stand outdoors. She rewarded me with 600 bells.

Lily: Oh, fantastic! This is it! This is my house key!

March Fishing Tournament

The fishing tournament was held today, and it was a sea bass-only tournament. I only had about ten minutes before the tournament ended (at 6:00 p.m.), so I started fishing right away.

The first five sea bass I caught failed to top Bettina’s record. But I caught a sixth sea bass and began talking to Chip. As he was talking, the clock struck six. But I gave him the fish, and it was 43.8 inches long. I won the fishing tournament, even though technically, I gave him the fish after time was up. But he accepted it, so I’m not going to complain!

Chip: Bettina's 43.6-inch sea bass has officially been surpassed! Wow! WOW!Chip told me that my prize would be in the mail.

At the site of a former villager’s home (Prince’s house, I think), I found a new orange rose. Even though I’m not purposely breeding flowers, and I don’t really need them anyway since I have a bunch in storage, I still get that little spark of excitement when a new hybrid flower pops up. It’s kind of silly, but BEHOLD THE ORANGE ROSE! 😀

A new orange rose that appeared!Beneath the purple evening sky, Frobert the frog suggested a new nickname for me. He said he’s going to call me “big bro.”

Frobert: OK, ready to have your mind blow? Big bro!After completing a lap around town and talking to all my villagers, I took the bus out to the city. I was just paying attention to some details on the scenery. Pictures of Shrunk and Frillard are displayed on the outside of the marquee, and the ABD (ATM) has a picture of a bag of bells on top. And then there’s the mystery building on the corner; it clearly has some gifts on display in the window. Too bad that building has no real use (or even a doorway).

Mallary’s Fake-out

I received a letter from Bunnie in the mail today. She thanked me for the medicine and gave me a sewing machine. Alrighty then.

It was raining in town tonight, and Lily the frog wasn’t very happy about that. She was standing there with her leaf umbrella, telling me she hopes the weather is nicer tomorrow.

Lily: Good evening, J-pie! I hope the weather clears up by tomorrow.Mallary got my hopes up when she told me she’s been tempted to move out. But she was really just complaining about her furniture, so I didn’t have the opportunity to tell her to get the duck out of town. Sigh. Maybe someday.

Mallary: I've really been fighting the urge to move out, toasty...Bunnie, now fully recovered (physically at least) basically called me crazy for staying up so late. But it was only 8 p.m.! I think she’s lost her marbles.

Bunnie: But I'm up, too... So that means that I'M the crazy one... Or maybe it's just everyone else!And now that St. Patrick’s Day is over, I headed up to Shampoodle in the city to dye my hair back to its original color. Don’t worry Mohawk McClover fans (assuming there’s more than one of you), he’ll be back again next March.

Harriet: That will be 3,000 bells, please.
