Glitching in Johto

When I went to visit Drago today, he told me he can tell what people are going to eat for dinner based on the look on their face.

Drago: I'm deciding what people are going to have for dinner based on what their faces look like.Going by the look on his face, I was afraid he was going to make Jeff jambalaya, possibly with some mayornaise. Fortunately, he didn’t try to cook and eat me. But he guessed that I was going to have vichyssoise for dinner. Uh, what? Wrong-o, Drago.

Drago: Hmmm... Vichyssoise, maybe?I opened my gate briefly; I was trying to show Madisyn how to glitch.

Madisyn is impressed after I glitch onto the train tracks.We ended up going to her town Johto to do more glitching. Her friend Laile was also there; they were both wearing Santa hats for reasons unknown.

Jeff, Madisyn, and Laile.Madisyn showed me her house, and we hung out there for a little while.

Madisyn: Welcome!Later, Laile held me hostage in one of the other houses in town. Apparently Laile was playing a prank on Madisyn by keeping me hidden. 😛

Jeff: Are you going to torture me?Eventually, we went back outside and rejoined Madisyn. I glitched up onto her cube sculpture.

Glitched onto the cube sculpture.I asked Madisyn to save the game, so she obliged…and killed me.

The three of us diving in the ocean.Madisyn asked if we should go out to the island, but it was time for me to go. I returned to Forest and went up to the Dream Suite. Luna told me Justin from Sunville was my most recent dream visitor. And in Club LOL, I asked K.K. to play K.K. Synth for me. I want to try making it into a shell music box.

K.K.: Enough tuning--let's groove. This next one is for you, Jeff. It's called K.K. Synth.My Able Sisters had a lightning tee for sale, so I figured I would buy it. It’s one of the shirts I wore pretty often in City Folk; I’ll just need a blue cap to wear with it. I think I have one in storage already, though.

Mabel: The rock 'n' roll vibe of the lightning tee is nice, right?Mabel wouldn’t let me try it on because I was still wearing my wet suit.

Mabel: It's probably difficult to try things on while you're wearing a wet suit. Take it off first and try again!
I will not strip for you, Mabel!

In the Emporium, I saw a slide puzzle for sale. Even though the numbers were still in the right order, I saw Katt looking at it and trying to figure it out.

The Orange Smuggler

Big Top told me he was moving out of town on July 30th, but I quickly changed his mind. All it took was a handful of peanuts.

Big Top: It's settled. I'll stay put here in Forest. I guess we'll still be neighbors after all!Lauryn asked if she could use my salon this evening, so I opened the gate for her. She got her hair done and I let her have some fruit too.

Lauryn stopped over for a visit.Up at the Dream Suite today, Luna told me Hannah from Boston was my most recent dream visitor.

At 10:00, I opened my gate for Friday Night Forest. Squishy came over to visit…and to smuggle in some foreign oranges!

Squishy arrives in Forest.She made a few trips between Re-Tail and her locker, leaving a suspicious trail of orange juice leading to her squishy pockets. I considered reporting her to Copper, but I was afraid Squishy would beat me to a pulp.

Before long, MaryAnn also came over to visit. I showed her the tree stump glitch, since she hadn’t seen it before.

The three of us standing in one spot.While I was there, I had a little snack.

I turned into a giant after eating a famous mushroom.I also dug holes around the bench and we fell into them. (As a suspicious person peered over the bench).

Jeff and MaryAnn stuck in holes.Squishy and I net-glitched into the river and turned into fish. Then we went…fishing?

Fishing in the river while standing in the river.After making a bunch of fish puns and wood puns, we headed out to the island for some tours. The selection of tours was pretty decent for a change. We went on two hide-and-seek tours, an ore tour, a bug-catching tour, and a balloon-popping tour. Our performance as a group wasn’t that great; we earned the bronze awards at least twice. Personally though, I won two of the three individual tours.

Tortimer: Jeff gets 4 medals, Squishy gets 2 medals, and MaryAnn gets 1 medal!I won the balloon-popping and ore tours, while MaryAnn won the bug tour. It probably didn’t help that I spent my time typing things like this:

Jeff: Yay! A deku stick!We then returned to the mainland. MaryAnn was catching some bugs while I ended up chasing Squishy around. I lost her at one point, but just as she was starting to gloat, I found her again. 😛 She was hiding behind a tree, but Dotty led me right to her. She must’ve been drawn to the sweet citrus smell.

Squishy: Bwahahaha!By then, it was around midnight (which was 5 a.m. for Squishy), so I ended the session for the night. Thanks for coming, Squishy and MaryAnn! And have a good weekend, everyone! Beware of anyone with sticky hands and orange juice stains on their pants!

Leo Sculpture DLC

Gulliver sent me some gladiator sandals in the mail today, from Greece. I wish you could give shoes to animals; it would be pretty funny to see an elephant wearing sandals.

There’s a new DLC item available now, the Leo sculpture! For this horoscope/astrological DLC set, they are sending the items out on the dates that each Zodiac sign begins (usually around the 23rd). So you don’t have to wait until the first of the month to get them.

Phyllis: OK, all right. Here's the Leo sculpture!The Leo sculpture is a lion’s head that hangs on the wall. You can jump up to turn it on, and that makes its eyes glow.

Jumping up to turn on the Leo sculpture.It can be re-ordered from the catalog for a price of 4,800 bells.

Leo sculpture - 4,800 bells.While I was on Main Street, I updated my dream town (in the daytime for a change). Also, Luna told me that Willa from the town of Rakuen was my most recent dream visitor.

Luna: According to the latest feedback, a client named Willa from Rakuen enjoyed your dream.After making my rounds, I took a trip out to the island. I decided to go on an easy balloon-hunt tour. Tortimer was telling me he used to be really good at shooting balloons, but I think he’s just full of hot air.

Tortimer: Got all that? Let me know if you need help using that slingshot. I was quite the sharpshooter in my day!The easy tour doesn’t have pitfall seeds scattered around, so it’s extremely easy to pop all of the balloons you need here.

Popping a balloon with a slingshot.I won the gold Tortimer award and earned six medals.

Tortimer: Wow! You must really hate balloons! Please accept this Gold Tortimer award and 6 medals!When I returned to the mainland, Sprinkle told me that her outfit would totally flop if she wasn’t wearing her icy shirt. Well, considering that’s all she was wearing, I would say so!

Sprinkle: I think my outfit would totally flop if it wasn't for the cute icy shirt I have on!

Just to let you know, a couple of people have submitted some designs, and I’ll be adding them to the QR Codes page later tonight.
