Third Mannequin & 2000th Dream Visitor

I bought K.K. Technopop at T.I.Y., and I really like the album cover.

The CD album cover of K.K. Technopop.There was a camper over at the campsite today, so I went inside to see who it was. It was Rosie the cat. I played a game of hers, and she bought some of my cherries. Unfortunately, she paid less than market value.

Rosie: But I'm SO glad I came. I took a bite of a famous Forest peach, and it was amazing!I went in Rolf’s house to deliver a gift from Aurora, and Kidd was in there as well. Rolf said it was like a cool-kid party.

Rolf: Hey, you made it! Up a tree! Kidd just got here. It's like a cool-kid party up in here!And when I spoke with that other cool Kidd, he was talking about the up-tempo music in anime. Also, his thought bubble gave Rolf a third eye.

Kidd: A lot of anime has really up-tempo theme songs, now that I think of it. That's probably why I love them!Gulliver was down on the beach, and he was complaining about his wrinkled wing tips.

Gulliver: The tips of my wings are wrinkled like sad, depressed seaweed.But the clues to his location were extremely easy this week. He’s headed off to Egypt! Awesome!

Gulliver: It's famous for tall, triangle-shaped buildings called pyramids. How they built them, I'll never know.And when I went to the Dream Suite to update my dream, Luna told me that I’ve had exactly 2,000 visitors!

Luna: Records state the number of clients who have experienced a dream about Forest is 2,000.Thanks to all who have my visited my town through the Dream Suite! Apparently JC from Oceana was my 2,000th dream visitor. So if you’re reading this JC, hi and thanks!

Luna: According to the latest feedback, a client named JC from Oceana enjoyed your dream.When I did some shopping at the Able Sisters, Mabel gave me my third mannequin!

Mabel, handing me my third mannequin: I hope this comes in handy!I went home to put my third mannequin next to my first two. But as I was doing it, Tabby started yelling for me to come outside. How rude.

Tabby: YOO-HOO! Come out, come out, wherever you are!I was busy, so I ignored her. After a minute or so, she gave up and left.

Later on, I opened my gate at 10:00 for Friday Night Forest. Since it was Friday the 13th, I decided to dress up and give my visitors a scare. I didn’t have a hockey mask in storage, so I decided to wear my lion-dance mask. Or demon mask, as everyone likes to call it.

Jeff: I eat Nooklings for breakfast.Earlier in the day, Big Top asked me for an orange. But I didn’t find him again until tonight. So I gave him the orange and he gave me a bread box in exchange.

Big Top: A fantastic piece of fruit deserves a fantastic gift! Here--take my bread box!Eventually, I agreed to stop killing people (and wearing the demon cow mask). So I put my fencing mask on instead. Lindsey came over to visit, and I showed her my axe.

Lindsey says hello as I swing my axe at her neck.We hung out in my house for a little while. And I can’t help but notice how blindingly bright my golden basement is when all the lights are on.

My excessively bright golden furniture room.We also went to the campsite to visit with Rosie. As Lindsey was leaving the tent, I caught this odd picture. Lindsey is in silhouette, Rosie was standing at attention with her tail straight out, and what exactly was I doing with my arms?

An odd picture of me, Rosie, Wendy, Daisy, and Lindsey.We were about to go to the island, and three of us were already in the boat. And then Lindsey said she had to go. After she left, I waited a few minutes to see if anyone else would come (they didn’t). So the three of us went on to the island anyway.

After catching some fish and bugs, we did a couple of tours. There wasn’t a good selection of tours today, but we did the insect hide and seek tour (where you catch bugs that aren’t in plain sight like the centipede and mole cricket) and the item matching tour.

Tortimer: Wendy gets 8 medals, Jeff gets 4 medals, and Daisy gets 1 medal!We then returned to Forest and sold our catches. After a few minutes, I decided to end the party shortly before midnight. Just as I was saying goodbye, I spotted Wendy and Daisy sitting on my bench.

Rainy Day

Late last night, I went over to Wendy’s town for a short visit. She let me see her new outdoor chair (a public works project). I told her she should dress up as a surgeon and it would look like she’s operating on me.

Kidd: It's going to just keep raining on us until night, isn't it, Jeff? Don't answer. I know, I'm sexy.Big Top again tried to move out of town! No way! I don’t care if you do want to join the circus, it’s not happening! They’d only pay you in peanuts anyway.

Big Top: What?! Now, how can I leave after hearing you beg me like that?When I spoke to Teddy, he kept talking about kisses and sour fruit. I didn’t know where this conversation was headed, but I tried to end it as soon as I could.

Teddy: Ki-ki-ki-kisses! I can't stop thinking about how sour fruit puckers your lips up for kissin'!I then took my scenic painting up to Blathers at the museum. Even though I was expecting it to be a fake, it was actually real! I’ve been having good luck with art pieces lately. Well, aside from all the paintings I’ve bought from Rolf.

Scenic painting title: The Hunters in the Snow.Wendy came over for a visit and we hung out in my town for a while. When I talked to Tabby, she told me that she’s drenched. Probably because her umbrella appeared to have no top! Look how the leaves went right through it!

Tabby, with tree leaves seemingly poking through her umbrella: Isn't this rain ever going to end, killer? I'm so drenched!Wendy then invited me back to her town to see her newest project, a geyser. Wow, I am so jealous! I want one!

Wendy's geyser public works project (PWP).Later in the evening, I returned to my own town to finish up my daily tasks. I worked a shift at the cafe, where Kidd asked me for the usual. Of course, he had not been to my cafe before, so I had to guess what he wanted. I was completely wrong, and he didn’t like it at all.

Kidd: Oh! Thanks for the coffee! Umm, I'll see you later.I ran into Tabby again, and she was telling me she wanted to huddle under her umbrella with someone. It’s sure not going to be me!

Tabby: I wish I could huddle under an umbrella with someone, waddle!And over by my wind turbine, I saw the first signs of grass regrowth! It was right along the edge of the cliff. There weren’t even any flowers in that spot.

Luna tells me that a Japanese player recently visited my dream town.

Searching for Kidd

Today, Benedict asked me what I thought of his clothes. I wasn’t sure what to say. I didn’t want to insult him, but I didn’t want to act like they were something amazing either. So I chose the “cute” option. However, he got insulted by that and thought I was comparing him to a stuffed animal.

Benedict: You think I look cute?! Like a stuffed animal or something?Crazy Redd had a tent set up today, so I went inside to see what he had to offer. I ended up buying a scenic painting from him. However, I wasn’t very familiar with most of the paintings he had today. So I’m not feeling very confident this time.

Redd: I see! Ya seem to be really close to that scenic painting, yeah?Back outside, Canberra asked for a new catchphrase. I was feeling sarcastic, so I had her say this:

Canberra: Yo, Jeff! You get around, eh? I'm sexy!Someone asked me to make a delivery to Kidd…but I couldn’t find him around town anywhere! I even started going around to animals’ houses in case he was visiting someone. When I went in Tabby’s house, she indeed had a visitor. But it was Rolf, not Kidd. And he was standing by her bed, while she was staring out the window next to her shower.

Rolf stands waiting by his bed while Tabby takes a shower???When I talked to her, she offered me 3,000 bells for my angelfish. Where did she get that kind of money all of a sudden?

Tabby: Oh, 3,000 bells? Yay! That's the perfect price. For reals, sell your angelfish to me!I continued my search for Kidd. The only house left to search was Molly’s, but he wasn’t in there. Molly was busy alphabetizing her kitchen utensils. 😮 OCD much?

Molly: I set up my kitchen exactly to my liking. My utensils are in alphabetical order, from blender to spatula!My search for Kidd led me to the museum, where I searched every single room. I even went back to town and checked the beach, but he wasn’t there either! Clearly he’s been Kidd-napped.

But just as I was preparing to plaster his face on milk cartons, I spotted a group of animals by my central bridge…including Kidd! These animals were not here before! I think he’s been using a Portal gun somehow. Anyway, I gave him his package–a mint gingham shirt.

Kidd: Ah, my mint gingham shirt! I thought if ever I lost something, I'd never see it again, but I was wrong.He rewarded me with a five-ball tee. Seriously? I walked fifteen miles to find you and all I got was this lousy T-shirt?

FYI: I have recently updated my town page to reflect Kidd’s arrival, my updated map, and a picture of my zen garden.
