Last Saturday, Kid Cat was visiting Peanut as I returned a lost book to Peanut. She was shocked to see her autograph book again, and I loved the contrast with Kid Cat’s expression in the background.
She rewarded me with a fast-food cap.
The next day, Kid Cat gave me a festive wreath to put on my door.
He said my festive spirit is going to look ripped, and it will also let the “guy in red” know where to leave presents.
I think you’re the guy in red, at the moment.
I took it home and displayed it on my front door right away.
On Monday, my savings balance reached a new milestone: 130 million bells. 💰
On Tuesday, I found June and Peanut sitting by a fire outside of Resident Services. I joined them for a few minutes to get warm. 🔥
Tonight, Ankha joined me for a K.K. Slider performance of “K.K. Safari.”
Yesterday, I posted a short video of winter vibes throughout the Animal Crossing series. It includes several New Horizons clips, and the older games as well. I hope you’ll check it out!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone! 🎄
On Wednesday, Nan the goat was camping at my campsite. She’s nice, and I’ve had her in New Leaf before (back in 2014). But I didn’t ask her to move in here.
I caught a scallop while diving, and Pascal popped up to ask for it. He shared some words of wisdom about time, and he wondered why we don’t give something back to time. I’m not sure how exactly that would work, but I’m sure it makes sense to him.
He gave me a pearl in exchange for the scallop.
As of Thursday (December 11th), snow now covers the ground on the island. I made my first snowman snowboy of the winter tonight. He wasn’t happy with his appearance though, unfortunately.
Outside of Resident Services, I joined Ankha for K.K. Slider’s Saturday night show. I asked for a random song, and he performed “K.K. Milonga” for us.
Here are some other quick notes about this week in Forest:
On Tuesday, I gave medicine to a sick Louie. He rewarded me with a baji jeogori.
Bones asked me to catch a damselfly for him, so I did. In return, he gave me a flower sweater.
I scored 30,000 bells from a balloon present on Wednesday.
I changed my town tune to the Metroid find-item jingle. (See the notes here.)
I helped out Gulliver Thursday, and he sent me another sombrero.
Yesterday, I sold 20 bugs (mostly wasps) to Flick for 87,750 bells.
On Thursday, I ran into Pascal while diving. He popped up to tell me some words of wisdom. He said he already has a washer and a dryer, but what he really needs is a put-away-er. 😆
He gave me a pearl in exchange for the scallop I gave him.
At Able Sisters, Peanut was staring at a hot-dog costume. She said she wanted to try it on and twirl around in it! I hope she doesn’t get mustard everywhere! ðŸŒ
Yesterday, I spotted some stripey billow clouds up in the sky. I believe this is only the 2nd time I’ve seen them.
Gladys the ostrich was camping over at the campsite. She seemed nice, but I wasn’t interested in asking her to move in.
I ran into Kid Cat over on the dock, and he told me he lost his training notebook. Fittingly, he used the catchphrase “in Wii Fit.”
I had already found his book, so I handed it over right on the spot. He said it was his manual for expert steps aerobics. He thanked me, and he rewarded me with a quilted down jacket.
While I was playing today, I put my system into sleep mode when I was in Resident Services. When I resumed the game, I went outside to see three of my villagers (who were seated for K.K.’s show) stand up, twirl, and simultaneously change from umbrellas into winter hats.
Not only that, but two of them then moved to different seats before sitting back down. 😆 It was a funny sequence, and that will certainly be in my next New Horizons Moments video. I joined the twirling trio for K.K. Slider’s performance of “K.K. Hop,” which isn’t one of my favorite songs. At least not when performed live.
After the show, I visited Peanut. June was sitting on her floor, and it almost looked like Peanut had kidnapped her and was holding her hostage. 😆
Against her will, it seems. 😛
Here are a few other quick notes about the past week:
On Sunday, Peanut asked me to catch a cricket for her. I did, and she rewarded me with her photo again. That’s the third one she’s given me!
Tuesday, I recovered Wisp’s spirits for him. He gave me a scoreboard for helping out.
Thursday, I found Gullivarrr’s phone for him. He sent me a sea captain’s coat in the mail.
Yesterday, I sold 14 fish (mostly sturgeon and red snappers) to C.J. for 113,250 bells. 💰
