As expected, Gulliver sent me a Merlion from Singapore in the mail.
The three dandelion puffs I blew yesterday have turned into three new dandelions today.
Being the start of a new month, I knew it was time for a new DLC item. So I went to the post office to see what it was. It’s a rice-plant bed…interesting.
I went to work at the cafe, but Brewster said he didn’t need help today. That’s odd. I didn’t think it was an event day…but more on that later.
Tabby wanted to give me a new nickname: Shmoopy! Absolutely not!!
I made her call me “master” instead. Anyway, while shaking a durian tree, I heard a springy “boing” sound effect. I got my net out and caught a bagworm. It’s a new bug for October.
Surprise Visitor
As I continued my walk around town, I saw a visitor I was not expecting: Jack!
It’s not Halloween! What’s he doing here? It turns out he’s asking for help on the 31st.
He told me I’m expected to scare everyone in town. I’m supposed to find a costume to wear, but he gave me a head start by giving me a bug mask.
Some of the scary items will also be sold at the Able Sisters for 1,031 bells, Jack told me. He also reminded me to stock up on candy.
At any rate, this is what my bug mask looks like:
Let’s Go to the City
When I went up to Main Street, I saw that the Nooklings are currently selling candy in preparation for the big event.
They’re also selling spooky furniture for October. I picked up this spooky lamp.
And the Able Sisters are indeed selling the scary items Jack talked about. Unfortunately, today they only had the same exact bug mask that Jack already gave me.
Aurora and Rolf both arranged meetings with me. So at 6:20, I had to meet Aurora at my house.
And at 6:30, I went to meet Rolf at his house. After I was done visiting with him, I went up to the Happy Homes Showcase. I hadn’t checked up there in a while, and there were three new SpotPass homes I hadn’t seen yet. One of them belong to Jeff from SB. So Jeff met Jeff.
Jeff had this nice music room in his house:
Another of the SpotPass homes belong to Snay from Snerkvil. This was one of her rooms:
And the other house belonged to Nate from Beantown. He had a really nice home.
When I returned to my town, I caught a yellow perch in the river. It’s another of the new catches for October. And then I spotted Phineas, for the first time in a long time. He gave me the Good Shopper badge.
I’ll be back with more tomorrow. Don’t forget to get your DLC item for October!
