In mid-June, Mira gave me an interesting gift when she was clearing out some old junk: her skeleton! \ud83e\ude7b Although I don’t think it wasn’t actually her <\/em>skeleton; she was still standing upright after all, so that was a dead <\/em>giveaway.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Mira:
If I didn’t have one, I’d be jelly!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

And just a few moments later, Boots complimented me on my new skeleton! I guess the word really spread fast! It rattled <\/em>through the community at break-neck speeds. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Boots:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

He offered me 840 bells for it, and I figured I could spare a rib, so I agreed to sell it. Boots was happy to have it, and he was probably relieved that it didn’t cost an arm and a leg. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sorry if my skeleton puns were bad… to the bone. I hope you found at least some of them to be humerus. \ud83e\uddb4 And if not, I have a bone to pick with you. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I later got to see the inside of Marina’s house now that she has unpacked. But Marina could only see the inside of her eyelids, since she was sleeping at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"The<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Yesterday, it was raining (and storming) in Forest. Inkwell was feeling sad that he was going to be soaked from head to toe…in ink.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Inkwell:
But isn’t that normal for you?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

I was delivering something from Marina to Inkwell, but Inkwell intended it as a gift to me. It was an orange tie-dye tank. He said he wears his while training…in ink, of course.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Inkwell:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n
\"Inkwell:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Marina told me that the rain was making her feet soaked and wrinkly. I don’t need to hear this.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Marina:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Today, I found Hornsby just standing under the illuminated arch. It wasn’t even turned on yet, but my favorite blue rhino was already charged up by the sight of it.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Hornsby<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

When I spoke with him, he asked me for a new piece of furniture. The only thing I had with me was a mini tootoid that I had just dug up. But he didn’t mind it at all. In fact, he found it to be deliciously good.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Hornsby:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

He rewarded me with a kiddie chair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benjamin the dog was camping over at the campsite today. He’s not my favorite dog, but it didn’t really matter anyway because my town is full.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Benjamin,<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Marina asked me to make another delivery, this time it was some clothing for Mira. But because I guessed incorrectly about what the gift was, I didn’t get rewarded for the delivery. But at least Marina threw some shade at Mira. \ud83d\ude06<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Marina:<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

And while at Re-Tail, I snapped this screenshot of Boots standing between me and the camera. I just thought it looked kinda funny. Do you agree?<\/p>\n\n\n
