On my walk around town tonight, I stopped in front of Sprinkle’s house to take a look at clear night sky and the nearly-full moon.
I saw a tent at the campsite and went inside. Octavian was camping there! While Octavian isn’t one of my most-wanted animals, he is an animal that I like a lot. Plus, he recently moved out of my ACCF town. So I tried getting him to move in, but he kept either saying no when I asked, or I would lose his game when we played for the opportunity.
But after about ten minutes, he agreed to move in–without even playing a game for it. I was basically button mashing because I thought he’d always ask for a game first. So I didn’t get a picture of the screen where he agreed to move in, but I’m pretty sure I saw it. 😛
I was a bit late in opening my gate for Friday Night Forest, but the gate opened about 10:07 p.m.; Chris came in, followed by Tiago from Starfall.
I actually didn’t know who Tiago was at first! He has been on my roster for a long time, but this was his first time visiting Forest. I showed him my house, and I got a surprise when I went to the basement: Chris was down there! I thought he was outside talking to the animals. Maybe I shouldn’t have shot the intruder.
A few minutes later, Lindsey also came over to visit. I hadn’t seen her for a long time. We were all hanging out in my central park area.
Lindsey was talking about how the sky and moon were so pretty tonight. When she mentioned the moon, I asked Chris if he was mooning people.
Chris was looking at my badges and saying I was good at shooting balloons, etc. And I got to thinking, if anyone was going to hand out badges, shouldn’t it be a badger? How did the people at Nintendo miss out on a pun like this?
I asked if everyone wanted to go to the island, but Lindsey didn’t want to. So we went up to Main Street and hung out at the museum. Blathers put his pincers around my head! Ouch!
After that, Lindsey went home for the night. Outside of the museum, I glitched into the pond for a minute or two, and then Tiago and I started beating up Chris.
Now that Lindsey was gone, I asked everyone again if we could go to the island. Everyone said yes, so I headed down towards the dock. And then Chris suddenly said he had to go! Foiled again!
So Chris left, and I went to visit Gala, who now has her Arwing on display in her house. Remember how I said she could go join the Star Fox team? I think she’s really considering it!
So when do you blast off, piggy?
After a few minutes, Wendy came over. She had some pears to sell, so I waited patiently outside of Re-Tail for her to come back out. I had a fountain firework waiting for her. It looks like I caught her dress (and my hair) on fire!
I again asked if we could go to the island. The third time was the charm, because everyone agreed to go! Once we got there, we played a hide-and-seek tour. Wendy and Tiago found all the villagers in about 30 seconds. It felt like I didn’t even have a chance! 😛
We also went on an item-matching tour that we won pretty quickly as well. After that, we had our first (and only) individual competition, a market value bug-catching tour. I got second place.
We then left the hut for some peaceful bug and fish-catching on the island. Despite how it looked, we weren’t just playing “follow the leader.” Well, not the whole time, at least. 😛
Once we had our fill of butterflies, beetles, and sharks (oh my!), we returned to town. We all sat at my town tree and watched the town history scroll by.
We also hung out by the train station for a while, talking about koalas and StreetPasses and Portugal. And of course Wendy had to go and melt my junk. (My watering can, that is).
Around 12:40, I ended the party for the night. Thanks to everyone who came! Have a good weekend, everyone!
