Did Puddles Meet Link?

It was raining in Forest tonight. What a soggy Saturday night.

Rain falls in Forest at night.The flea market was underway, so any villagers that were in their houses would only talk about selling you something. When I told Rod I wasn’t interested in any of his furniture, he seemed aggravated at me.

Rod: Aw, WEAK! I thought you were my bud, ace!
It’s not my fault your stuff sucks.

Just to be nice, I did buy one item tonight: Moe’s skeleton. He only charged me an arm and a leg 1,510 bells.

Moe: Oh, are you looking at my skeleton? Heh. I thought so.In the museum, Blathers identified (and returned) two fossils for me. Downstairs in the Roost, K.K. sang “I Love You” to me.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: I Love You!After the show, I chatted with Static outside. He asked if I was interested in a leopard shirt, and I said yes.

Static: Are you interested in a leopard shirt?He immediately told me there’s more where that came from. But he didn’t give me the shirt!

Static: Oh, yes. There's more where that came from!I even checked my pockets, and there was no shirt there! Even though I didn’t pay him anything, I still felt ripped off. 😛

Confused, I talked to him again. But he didn’t mention the shirt. Instead, he suggested moving in with me! I can imagine him doing the same thing with his share of the rent. “Want me to pay half? Sure, there’s more where that came from.” *disappears*

Static: Hey, then maybe I could move in with you...
Are you nuts?

Puddles the frog had an interesting story for me. She said she once took a trip to a faraway place, where she met a cute boy in green clothes.

Puddles: I met this cute boy there that wore these green clothes, la baa.She said he could shoot stuff out of the sky with his amazing boomberang. Is she talking about Link?!

Puddles: He could shoot stuff out of the sky with his boomerang! It was amazing!
Come again?

The Dream Chaser

I found a note in a bottle down on the beach tonight.

Finding a note in a bottle on the beach in Animal Crossing: Wild World. It came from someone called “The Dream Chaser.” He or she apparently found nothing of interest in the last town, and wants to visit mine next?

Travel Log: It seems that there is nothing for me in this town. Next, I shall visit yours. -The Dream ChaserI decided it was time to change my clothes, so I went to Able Sisters and bought this flame shirt. Mabel seemed to think it looked hot. 😛

Mabel: Wow! You are looking really, really good! I mean it! Are you interested?
Sure. Call me, Mabel.

When I spoke with Rod outside, he was talking about the clothes he was wearing. He said his shirt was designed by C-no from over in Treehut. He said that when he wears it, he hears a voice that tells him to do sit-ups! I just smiled, nodded, and slowly backed away.

Rod: When I wear this, it's like a little man in my head commands me to do sit-ups!I went to visit Puddles, and she told me that she totally likes me. She may have to fight with Mabel. 😛

Puddles: Hey, J-rock, you know I totally like you, right?Kiki asked me to deliver a letter to Static, and I agreed. But when she saw I didn’t have a free letter spot, she changed her mind. So I made room for a letter and talked to her again. But this time, she asked me to take a letter to Chevre. Okay, no problem.

Chevre seemed to enjoy the letter, and she even let me see it. I didn’t open it on my own this time, honest! 😛

Dear Chevre, I don't write well, but I DO put my heart into it! My feet grew after I danced to soul! -See ya! KikiWhen I returned to Kiki, she thanked me and gave me 510 bells.

I found two fossils today, and both were returned to me after being identified by Blathers. I didn’t have much money left in my pockets, so I didn’t make a mortgage payment this time.

Spring Arrives

All the winter snow has now melted, so grass and trees are green once again! Welcome, springtime!

Green grass and trees on the first day of spring.

A message on the bulletin board suggested an unusual game of bowling to help with sadness. “Throw a few balls down the lanes of your soul,” it says. I can’t even imagine how that would work.

-Talking to Myself- When you're sad, throw a few balls down the lanes of your soul. I threw 3 strikes the other day!
A bowling metaphor? Oh, spare me.

When I spoke with Yuka, who was suspiciously standing in the northeast corner of town, she told me that she was holding a bug net to catch bugs. But then she added that it’s fun to catch people, too! Did she just admit to kidnapping?

Yuka: Though, honestly, it's fun to catch people, too! I'm evil!Tom Nook didn’t have anything new to tell me about his backstory today. But there must be more to it, because what he said last time didn’t seem like an ending. Maybe he’ll say more next time.

Down at the Roost, I caught some live music. K.K. Slider performed Rockin’ K.K. for me.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: Rockin' K.K.!Chevre asked me to make a delivery to Puddles, and I agreed to help out. I had to walk around a while before I found the pink frog, but I eventually got the gift to her. I was a bit surprised to see what was inside, though…a skull shirt. Is Chevre threatening Puddles??

Puddles: A skull shirt... Going for the safe choice, huh, la baa?Forest seems like a dangerous, violent town tonight. Yuka’s out kidnapping people, Chevre is sending skulls to threaten Puddles, and whoever posts on the bulletin board might throw some balls down your lane. 😛

Puddles seemed to enjoy the skull shirt, though. When I returned to Chevre, she rewarded me with 510 bells for my trouble.

After that, I went to town hall to make a 20,000 bell mortgage payment. I then returned home, put my new song in my stereo, and ended my game for the night. Enjoy the weekend (and the new spring season), everyone! See you next time! 🙂
