Medicine Give and Take

Last night, one of my villagers told me that Big Top was sick. I would’ve bought him some medicine, but there was a problem. Due to these crappy non-night owl hours, the Emporium was closed. But I knew of a great solution: I purposely got stung by bees.

Getting stung by bees.If you’re good friends with a villager, they may give you some medicine to heal yourself. And sure enough, Aurora came through for me.

Aurora: Oh, that's right! I happen to have some medicine on me! You can take it to reduce the swelling.Of course I didn’t use the medicine on my swollen face, because I was going to give it to Big Top. But something funny happened when I went in to see him. He commented on my bee sting, and then gave me medicine!

Big Top hands me some medicine.And then, of course, he asks me for medicine for his sickness! Why didn’t he just use the medicine he already had? 😀 But I handed the medicine right back to him, and he swallowed it down.

Big Top: Maybe I'll feel better enough to play outside soon.Then today, I got a couple of letters in the mail. Gulliver sent me the red-tasseled lantern from China, and Katie sent me a toy camera for taking her to Mooville yesterday.

When I ran into Agent S, she immediately asked to buy the lantern for 600 bells. Normally, I wouldn’t agree to sell a Gulliver item for 600 bells. But since it was Agent S, and since I recently missed an appointment with her, I wanted to make it up to her.

Agent S: Oh, 600 bells? Yay! That's the perfect price. For reals, sell your red-tasseled lantern to me!After selling it to her, I spoke with her several more times. She mentioned meeting Grace from Amoure in a dream. (Luna later confirmed Grace was my most recent dream visitor).

Agent S: I had the weirdest dream last night! I met a person named Grace from Amoure...I saw a tent over at the campsite, so I went to see who was inside. For a moment, I thought it was Rhonda; but it was actually Renee the rhino.

Renee: I'll have to remember this place! Yo yo yo!Tom came over for a brief visit, dressed all in green. So clearly, that makes him Tom Green.

Jeff: Hi Tom Green.He soon glitched into my zen bell. Well, to him he was on top of the bell…but he appeared inside the bell to me. He rang the bell several times, as did I. He soon went deaf.

Tom41: OMG I'm deaf!Before long, I ended the party so I could update my dream town. I later went out to the island, and ended my game soon after. See you all next time!

Oh, one last note: I just put up a Festivale guide. For those of you who time travel, I included the date of the event for each year through 2022. This is my 4th New Leaf guide, and I plan on making more in the future. (The others are my hair guide, face guide, and eye color guide).

First Gulliver Duplicate

Today, Molly told me she planned on moving out of town on March 16th. Naturally, I made her stay.

Molly: OK, the move is off!I went to Melly’s town Rotledge to drop off some flowers. I got to see more of her town than I did last time, and it’s really looking great.

Melly's town of Rotledge.Grass and water patterns in Rotledge.While I was there, I checked her turnip prices at Re-Tail. Reese was buying them for 146 bells apiece, which isn’t a huge amount, but it is pretty good. So I sold my turnips and scored 160k.

Reese: Well then...I could probably part with 160,600 bells for all of it, if that sounds OK with you?When I returned to Forest, Kidd suggested a new public works project: Stonehenge.

Kidd: And it's free of charge! Yeah, what we definitely need around here is a Stonehenge.I like Stonehenge, but I’m not sure if I want to put it in my town. At any rate, it’s not a priority. This is what it looks like, if you haven’t seen it before:

Stonehenge: 698,000 bells.And Molly was sitting on the metal bench in front of the fountain.

Molly: This is the best season for relaxing outside. Why don't you sit down and join me, mayor?She asked me to join her, so I did.

Sitting on the bench with Molly.I soon spotted Katie walking around, and she wanted to go to another town. Karen offered to take her, so I took Katie to Mooville.

Katie: OK, I'm gonna go see what Mooville is all about!Once I returned home, Copper told me that rough waters will wash up foreign objects onto the shore. Is he calling Gulliver a foreign object?

Copper: The rough waters will often cause foreign objects to wash up on our shore, so watch your step!So I went down to the beach to wake up Gulliver, and I found out he’s headed to China.

Gulliver: ...Ding-ding-ding-ding! That's right! I was headed for China!However, I’ve already received his gift from China (a red-tasseled lantern) back on August 15th! So this will be my first duplicate item from Gulliver, which apparently means I now have all of his items. Sweet! That was so much easier than it was in City Folk, that’s for sure!

Before I ended my day, I made a trip out to the island and I also updated my dream town at the Dream Suite. My most recent dream visitor was Ana from Cocoa. See you all next time!

Modern Emerald Furniture

I got my modern sofa in the mail today from the Happy Homes Showcase, and I took it to Re-Tail to be customized with an emerald. When it was done, I redecorated my main room. The modern set has an abundance of flat surfaces, so it’s great if you like placing lots of things on your furniture. As for my ice furniture, it’s going into storage at least until next winter.

The modern furniture set customized with emeralds.I also removed a few other items, including the ogre mask that I forgot was on the wall. I was going to go to the Emporium to check my catalog–I wanted to see if the items could be ordered again before I sold them. But the Emporium was closed! It was only 9:00! Ugh!

T&T Emporium - Hours: 9 a.m. until 9 p.m.
*Stupid beautiful town ordinance mumble mumble…*

I found out online that the items could all be ordered again, so I sold them at Re-Tail. I then went to my own island and then to a Club Tortimer island. A girl there (sorry, I forgot her name) said something to me, but my view was partially obstructed. I thought she told me I have a lot of bandages, and I was like “What? Bandages?” She responded that she said badges. Oh. That makes more sense.

Jeff: oh lolI soon returned to Forest, and Agent S told me she was wearing an actual Wii U. You’re what?

Agent S: Woohoo! I'm wearing an actual Wii U, can you believe it? Yes, YOUR design!And I found Saharah wandering around town. I got her to follow me to my house, and then I took a detour by glitching into the river. She refused to follow me further.

Saharah: Ahh! Wait! Please to wait!So I got out of the river and spoke with her to get me to follow me the rest of the way home.

Saharah: Suddenly you were gone! The surprise. It was great.I paid her the 3,000 bell fee and she installed a ramshackle wall and a chessboard rug. The wall is trash, but I’m keeping the rug in storage.

A ramshackle wall and chessboard rug.That wrapped up my night in Forest. By the way, my most recent dream visitor today was Isabela from Kakariko. See you all next time!
