Vivian’s Last Day

Jack sent me a letter telling me to get ready for Halloween, and he attached a monster mask to the letter. I wouldn’t normally wear the monster mask, but I had a bad case of bedhead. 😛 And Shampoodle was already closed for the day–they close at the absurdly early time of 8 p.m.!

Jeff puts on a monster mask in Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

Lolly and Claudia both told me I’m a world traveler again. I don’t know why my label keeps changing back and forth, but I’ll gladly take this over being called a bell pincher. 😛

Rolf asked me to bury a time capsule for him, and of course I agreed to help out.

Rolf: Hey, thanks! Now we just sit back and let it sleep through the ages... or until I get bored! GAHAHA!

Elvis the lion was at the campsite. I’m not trying to be cruel, but he’s kinda ugly. 😛 Then again, I don’t really like any of the lions in the series.

Elvis: I didn't do any research or anything before choosing a place to camp. I think I lucked out with this town!

I decided it was finally time to change things up in Forest. I scanned in a Splatoon amiibo, and summoned Inkwell to the campground. I told him to move into town.

Inkwell: Great! So who do you want me to muscle out of town? I mean...who do you want me to talk to?

I told him to “talk to” Vivian about moving out.

Inkwell: Boosh! Everything went well! I talked to Vivian, and she's moving out anyway.

I’ve mentioned this when discussing my plans before, but it’s nothing personal against Vivian. I like her, and I wouldn’t mind keeping her around longer. But the problem is that if I kicked Claudia out instead, I would be raising the number of amiibo villagers in town…and they never ask to move out on their own.

But Vivian has had a lengthy (3 years, 10 months) stay in Forest…so it’s not like I’m rushing her out of town. 😛 And when Inkwell moves in, that will make Claudia eligible to leave town as well. So this should set the gears in motion for some villager movement, after a whopping 19 months of no villager movement at all.

Of course, I went in to say goodbye to her. Best of luck, Vivian!

Vivian: I'm going to be moving out of this town. It's just time for me to move on.

According to Luna, my most recent dream visitor was Morrigan from Courtlyn. Thanks for stopping by! I’ll be back with another entry in a couple days as I welcome Inkwell to town.
