Metroid Tune

Rolf was still sick today, so I bought some more medicine for him. At first, it sounded like he was going to refuse it!

Rolf: Huh? I'll get better on my own, so I don't need any medicine! Heh. Well, since you insist, I'll take it...But he went ahead and gulped it down. Or maybe he gulped it up as he flipped upside down.

Rolf flips as he takes some medicine.Up at the Emporium, I decided to see which of Gracie’s clothing items I still needed for my catalog. It turns out I needed everything that she had on sale today! So I bought it all out.

Gracie: Of course! I can't wait to see you in it! Gracie Homme turns any boy into a full-fledged hunk, darling.I was long overdue to change my town tune, so I changed it to the Metroid power-up jingle. I’ve used this as my ACCF town tune before, but I’m not sure if I’ve used it in New Leaf or not.

Metroid power-up town tune.I think Isabelle was glad to hear something different for a change.

Isabelle: I'm sure this will be a big hit with the townsfolk. We'll start using it right away!I finished up my evening with a boat trip out to the island (as I often do). I went on a bug hide-and-seek tour, which earned me 15 medals.

Tortimer: That's enough to net you a Gold Tortimer award and 15 medals!

Rolf’s Viruses

I found Mac the dog in a tent at the campsite today. I like most of the dogs in the game, Mac included. But my town is still full, so I wasn’t able to ask him to move in.

Mac: Heya! Do you live in this town?Saharah was also in town today, and I paid her for some new wallpaper and carpet. She put in a stately wall and an ornate rug.

A stately wall and ornate rug.Rolf was sick, so I bought some medicine for him.

Rolf takes some medicine.After taking it, he said he could feel all the viruses leaving his body at once. Let’s hope that’s all that’s coming out of his body.

Rolf: ...Phew. I think I can feel all the viruses leaving my body at once!I put on my wet suit and did a little diving this evening. I caught a scallop, and Pascal popped up behind me to ask for it.

I got a scallop! Hey, this isn't a potato at all!I gave it to him, and he gave me an anchor in return. He also had some words of wisdom for me:

Pascal: If you can't climb to the top of the world's tallest mountain, you should just climb a bunch of hills, maaan.Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Chloe from Clo City was my most recent dream visitor.

Sprinkle Hates Waffles

I trapped Joan up against the Sphinx again this morning, and I bought 3,100 turnips from her. She squealed with delight.

Joan: The asking price is 103 bells per turnip. What do you think, kiddo?Aurora asked me to make a delivery to Forest’s other penguin, Sprinkle. The package contained a waffle shirt that Sprinkle didn’t like…at all.

Sprinkle: Ick, a waffle tee! I don't like this look at all, ice cube.It’s not very often a villager is this emphatic about how much they hate a gift! Wow.

Sprinkle: It's so awful that I really don't even want to put it on.Still, she rewarded me with a persimmon for making the delivery.

Later, I found a lost item near the river.

Finding a lost item.As I began asking villagers about the lost item, Sprinkle pinged me. She told me she’s going to be moving out on May 22nd! And this time, she didn’t change her mind right away! Wow, she must really hate waffles.

Sprinkle: I know this is super sudden, but I've decided to move away on the 22nd of this month!I found the owner of the lost item over by Re-Tail: It belonged to Dizzy the elephant.

Dizzy: Oh! This is mine!He gave me a raglan shirt to thank me for returning the item to him.

Up in the Emporium, Tommy was looking a bit different today. Is it his hair? Hmm, I can’t quite put my finger on it.

Tommy (standing behind Daisy): Welcome! Welcome! Come on in!Merka came over for a very brief visit and an even shorter swim.

I throw beans at Merka as she swims in the ocean.
