Moldy Reward

Last Tuesday (September 16th), Mira supposedly quoted a movie by saying “You’re no match for my saw shark tail attack!”

Mira: Check it out. You're no match for my saw shark tail attack! Best. Movie. Line. Ever!

As interesting as that sounds, she was really just asking me to catch a saw shark for her. I politely declined the request.

Axel the elephant was camping at the campsite for (at least) the 2nd time. He’s kinda cute, but my town is full anyway.

Axel, at the campsite: Hey! Do you think it's OK if I camp here for a while?

I found a lost item (a mitten) on the ground, and I returned it to Hornsby. However, the reward he gave me was not very appealing.

Hornsby: Here's a thank-you gift for your trouble. I hope you like it. It's a moldy shirt!
I’m getting the impression that he didn’t want the mitten back.

As I was using the CAT machine outside of town hall, I witnessed a balloon present alter its path. It was traveling west to east, but then it took a sharp turn north (to go around my flower clock) before turning again to the east!

Thanks for using your local CAT machine!
Thanks for using your local CAT machine!

Gulliver was down on the beach, and he was talking about eating some hot-and-spicy kimchi. He also mentioned tae kwon do, so I knew he was headed to South Korea. (Need a Gulliver Guide?)

Gulliver: I was headed to a country where people tend to eat a lot of hot-and-spicy kimchi! Super spicy!

The next day, he sent me a samgyetang in the mail.

Yesterday (September 20th), the Bug-Off was held. I again played too late to participate, but I saw on the bulletin board that Jeremiah was the winner. Congrats, Jeremiah!

~Bug-Off Results~ The winner of the Bug-Off was Jeremiah, 56 Pts. 2nd: Lolly, 50 Pts. 3rd: Boots, 37 Pts.

Over on my central bridge, Cube was standing at an angle when he inquired about my samgyetang.

Cube: Oh, wow! What are you doing with a samgyetang?

He wanted it, and he said he’d give me a mint shirt in return. I somewhat reluctantly agreed to the trade. 😛

Today, I returned a lost item to its owner, Inkwell. It was his missing magazine.

Inkwell: Oh, YES! I freaked out when I lost my latest Sweatpants Monthly!

I bet he could work for a printing company if he wanted. After all, I’ve heard he can ink well.

Rolf asked me for some furniture to replace his spade tee, so I bought a lucky frog at the Emporium for him. He initially called it an excellent choice…

Rolf: Oh! A lucky frog! Excellent choice of furniture!

But then he said it’s something that has to be displayed on a table. Oops.

Rolf: But this sorta thing is the kind of thing you gotta display on a table or some such, huh...?

However, he wasn’t actually turning it down. He still accepted it, he just wanted to complain about it a bit. 😆 He rewarded me with a lovely wall.

Boots asked me for a house centipede, so I had to make a few trips around town to bang some rocks. I eventually caught what I needed, and Boots was happy. He gave me a jungle-camo tee in return.

Boots: It's a jungle-camo tee! You deserve a reward!

That’s all for now, but I’ll be back again with another entry by the end of the month. Never Stop Crossing!
