Hanging with Resetti

Now that April is here, some of the trees in town are pink from the cherry blossoms. They’ll be around for the next week or so. Unfortunately, there didn’t seem to be a lot of them around town. This was the only spot I could find with two of them close to each other.

A night picture of Forest showing two pink trees.Angus was telling me about how people will try to tell him to hold his tools. Uhh…

Angus: A lot of outdoorsy types are real sticklers about how you're supposed to hold your tools.He said it’s not just about grip, it’s also about being close enough to strike. At this point, the awkward conversation was making me feel uncomfortable.

Angus: It's not just about grip. It's also about getting close enough to strike, toasty!
Please don’t strike me.

After circling around town, I took the bus to the city. I saw the cones moved out of the way, which allowed me to enter the Reset Surveillance Center.

The open entrance to the Reset Surveillance Center.Resetti was inside, ranting about how people should talk about their problems. As opposed to yelling at someone for resetting, perhaps?

Resetti: It feels good to let that out, same as when ya belch. Ya shouldn't keep it in.I caught him a rare mood where he actually wanted to keep talking. There were no resetting emergencies to cause him to leave, and he didn’t yell at me to get out. He started talking about his kid, and how he hasn’t seen him or her for a whole week. I didn’t even realize he had a kid!

Resetti: Ya know, I just realized I haven't seen my kid's face in a whole week. That just ain't right.As I continued talking to him, he gave me permission to finish the pizza he left! I was wondering about that pizza the last time I was in here. But unfortunately, it looks like the same slice that was there last month. I think I’ll pass this time.

Resetti: Hey, there's some leftover pizza around here, so make sure ya eat it, all right?

Discussing Crime TV

I got Chrissy’s goodbye letter in the mail. She thanked me for being a great BFF. Ha!

Chrissy's goodbye letter.Over by town hall, Friga and Mallary were discussing a crime TV show (CSI: Forest?). Friga nearly spoiled the show for Mallary, but stopped just short of naming the culprit. But she did rule out the guy with the spatula. Wait, what type of crime was it? Did they find the victim scrambled?

Friga: It turns out the bad guy ISN'T the one who left his spatula at the crime scene!
Colonel Mustard did it, in the kitchen, with a spatula.

Fang was asking me about fashion, and how he looked in his shirt. I said he was too old for that shirt, and he was shocked. He has a great jaw-dropping emotion.

Fang: But the salesclerk said it was perfect for my bridge and shuffleboard club! Toasty!It’s Saturday night, so I checked out the weekly musical performance from K.K. Slider, the singing dog. He performed K.K. Technopop for me, although he looks a bit sleepy in this picture.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: K.K. Technopop.When I visited Broccolo, he asked me for a Peking Man. Maybe if you leave your windows open at night, you might find someone peeking in. I always hate when animals ask for a specific fossil, because the odds of finding that exact one are very slim. Unless he expects me to rob the museum, of course.

Broccolo: If you happen to come across a Peking Man, could I have it?

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!
