June Bugs

Moe is officially an ex-villager, as I got his goodbye letter in the mail.

Moe's goodbye letter in Animal Crossing: City Folk.Now that it’s June, fireflies are out and about. I like how they light up the area around them as they’re flying around.

A firefly near me lights up my face and the surrounding area.When I saw Moe’s empty house plot, I felt bad. Not because he was gone, but because it left all this dirt behind. I planted some flowers to help the grass regrow, but I’m really hoping Moe’s replacement moves into this same spot.

Red roses planted in the spot where Moe's house was.Fireflies aren’t the only new creatures flying around; June brings many new summer bugs. It’s so hard for me to resist an emperor butterfly!

I caught an emperor butterfly! Such royal beauty!Wendy the sheep saw that I had a flea in my pockets, and she wanted it really bad!

Wendy: Gosh, I sure wish I had one of those... Yeah, it would be totally nice to have one of those...She only offered me 150 bells for it, but she was inexplicably ecstatic when I sold it to her. Whatever floats your boat. (Or bites your skin).

Moe-ving Out

When I went into Moe’s house tonight, I saw all his belongings packed up in boxes. He’s getting ready to move out of town. He compared his memories of Forest to ratty old stuffed animals. How dare him!

Moe: It's been a blast. I'll keep my memories of Forest forever, like ratty, old stuffed animals.I also went to visit Octavian, and he wasn’t very happy that I never brought him any “robo” stuff.

Octavian: What I would have looked like if you'd gotten me that robo thing I asked you for!Saturday is K.K. night of course, so I went down to the basement of the museum to hear one of his performances. I asked for a random song and he played K.K. Rock.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: K.K. Rock.You know how Celeste has the observatory on the upstairs of the museum? As I exited the museum tonight, I happened to look up at the building…where exactly does she work??

The outside of the museum, which doesn't seem to have a second floor.I then galloped over to Elmer’s barn house to say hello. He asked me to catch a frog for him…because he wants to deep-fry it! Where’s Jambette when I need her?

Elmer: The thing is, I really need a frog to round out my chapter on deep-frying...

Something Robo

I went in to visit Octavian tonight, and he asked me for a favor. He wanted me to bring him something that looks robo.

Octavian: Oh, hey, if you see something that looks robo, would you snag it for me?And over by Able Sisters, there it was! I saw something robo!

Me using my net to try to catch Ribbot, the robotic frog villager.Unfortunately, I couldn’t catch it! It was Ribbot of course, and for some reason I couldn’t pick him up and put him in my pockets. I guess Octavian’s dream isn’t coming true tonight.

When I went to visit Kiki, she told me that she once tried to learn how to identify fossils from Blathers. But he refused to help her! He didn’t want to give away the secret, because he realized he would be useless! Kiki was not amused (as you can see by the look on her face).

Kiki: He said it was a trade secret, and he wouldn't tell me, for real.
