Mad Scientist Gaston

Crazy Redd was in town today, and he had a worthy painting for sale. I didn’t need it. But you may notice the item next to it also looks like a work of art if you’ve played New Leaf. The spaceman is known as the ancient statue in New Leaf, and it can be donated to the museum. But in Wild World, it’s just a piece of furniture.

Redd: Ah! I see you've noticed the worthy painting! That's a very nice item!

When I ran into Curly outside, he asked which of his bulging, burly muscles I thought were his favorites. Umm, this is how awkward conversations start.

Curly: Which of my many bulging, burly muscles do you think are my absolute favorites?

I guessed his arms, and he said I was wrong because they’re all his favorites.

Curly: WRONG! Man, too bad! The correct answer was... Each and every one of 'em!

He conceded that it wasn’t a fair question, so he gave me a prize: a rose shirt. Not the best prize, but that reminded me that I had to water all of Curly’s wilted flowers in his garden! It’s bad enough that I have to water my own, but I ended up watering his as well. Of course I’m going to steal any hybrids that pop up, but at least I’m helping. 😛

Jeremiah was all packed up and ready to move out of town, but that was not acceptable. I got him to reconsider. Or at least, I think I did…

Jeremiah: Is that so? Well, if that's how you're going to react, I'll sleep on it for a while.

I got to see inside of Gaston’s house, and it’s a bit creepy. Not only does he have some mad scientist furniture, but he also has K.K. Dirge playing. And then of course, there’s also that mustache…

Inside Gaston's house.

Bree informed me that she was giving me a new nickname: Petite J. Ugh. Even though I didn’t do anything mean to her for coming up with that, karma caught up to her a few minutes later. She walked into the random pitfall of the day!

Bree struggles to get out of a pitfall in Animal Crossing: Wild World (ACWW).

Getting Gaston

Tonight, Bree told me that she hadn’t been clothes shopping in a long time. She suggested that someone should just give her some.

Bree: If only someone would just give me some.
It’s not going to be me.

The latest Message of the Week on the bulletin board said to call the firefighters before the house burns down! Was someone trying to cook?

*Message of the Week* Call the firefighters. Before the house burns.

It got me wondering if any future Animal Crossing games would ever have firefighters. While it’s unlikely that Nintendo would put destructive fires in the game, it would be cute to have a firehouse with a firefighter or two (likely dalmatians) that would occasionally rescue a cat up a tree or something.

There was a new house in town, with a new villager inside. It was Gaston the yellow bunny with the big, bushy mustache.

Gaston: Oh, hey, we haven't met yet, have we? My name is Gaston.

I’m quite familiar with Gaston, even though I rarely (if ever) seem to get him in any of my towns. But I do have a Mii version of him on my Tomodachi Life island, as some of you may know from my Tomodachi Life Blog.

Crazy Redd was in town, but the only work of art he had today was a flowery painting. And I didn’t need that one. It feels like it’s going to take me forever to get the last couple paintings I need.

White Feather

Rocco is officially gone at last. I got his goodbye letter in the mail tonight.

Later, Jeff! So I packed up and moved the other day. Don't take it too personally... Most of it wasn't your fault. Good-bye! -Rocco

I also received a letter from Boondox, where they’re using my generous donations to build mansions for themselves!

Dear Jeff, My cousin Thomas bought a mansion! It's a towering three-bedroom with a view of the water! -From Boondox

In return, they sent me a white feather. Sounds like a fair trade. I put it in my hair. It is a bit bland compared to the purple feather I’ve been wearing, but I earned that stupid thing, so I want to keep it on for a while. 😛

Jeff wears a white feather in his hair in ACWW.

I watered a bunch of flowers around my house, and then some around Curly’s house too. I don’t even know if I have more hybrids or not, because most of the flowers were wilted. That’s what happens when you only play once a week. 😛

Anyway, I made my way to Crazy Redd’s tent. He had an amazing painting for sale, but I didn’t need it.

Next, I had a chat with Rosie, and she told me that La-Di-Day is coming up on Saturday. She said she was going to sing her adorable little heart out. As cute as that may sound, I don’t plan on participating this time. 😛

Rosie: I am SO gonna sing my adorable little heart out!

I found all three fossils and had them identified at the museum. But I couldn’t sell them, or anything else, because Nook’s shop was already closed by the time I played. Night owl problems.
