The Meteor Shower

On Monday, there are, in your mailboxes, passports for those who happened to not pick them up when the airport opened. Hold onto these--they’re important, after all! Open them up, and you’ll find not only a title, your name, and your hometown, but you’ll also find…

A blank page? That’s right. There’s a page in the back of the admittedly small passport with only one thing on it: a space that looks like it has room for a star stamp. Huh. That’s strange, isn’t it? There are no hints as to what it could be about, but maybe the announcement will shed some light.

There’s also, like last week, a familiar face around the island… it’s Audie! Come around to her house to say hi--she’s very excited to be here, and very fashionably dressed as she strolls around the island.

And like clockwork, at nine AM, Tom Nook makes his announcement once more:

“Good morning, Isla Sonrisa! A few things this morning. Please give a warm welcome to our new neighbor, Audie!”

Audie smiles and waves at you all with both paws--she’s pretty flattered at the warm response. Tom Nook continues--

“We have for you the ability to build bridges now! Yes, yes, these will prove very useful indeed. Of course, you will most likely have to work together to figure out the best places to put these bridges, as we have only a limited number… But I am sure working together will be little trouble for you all! The only thing to note is that each bridge will come with a construction fee of 15,000 bells each. Consider working together to get some bridges up and running...?”

He pauses, and the next part comes with some measure of almost… not quite dismay, but there’s a certain cloud over the tanuki: “It also seems Iori and Mira have also left the island… Again, we’re looking into it, and should any discoveries come to light, I will tell you immediately.”

He nods to himself, and continues on--

“Next, I’d like to tell you all we have a very special event tonight… a meteor shower! Yes, yes, starting at 7 PM, we will have clear skies and many stars to wish upon. Who knows--maybe your wishes will all come true!” He says that with a bright smile, almost like he really believes it… Or maybe that’s just his quiet optimism? Anyway, he continues--

“Finally, I’d like to thank you all for your hard work in making items for our new friends! Yes, yes, you all have been working so hard to create furniture and items for our housing plots, but this week, I invite you all to put your best DIY skills to the test! There are no specific style requirements in mind, but please make sure our potential new friend has:

1 Table
2 Dressers
1 Clock
2 Chairs

Of course, if you’d like to make more, I am sure our friend will not be opposed…” He pauses, and seems to remember something! “Ah, yes, we are very close to opening our museum… I am sure Blathers would appreciate any bugs, fish, or fossils regardless! Hmm… Yes, that is all I have for you! Thank you once more for your hard work, and have a wonderful day!”




Possible Objectives

1. Help Tom Nook prepare a housing plot for the last villager house.
2. Donate more specimens to Blathers.
3. Attend the meteor shower, if you so desire. There may be some secrets waiting for you...
4. Make a money pool for some bridges.

Sometimes you're a little scary or I don't understand you, but that doesn't mean you're not a good person.

[regression]

... You're more mature than most people, Serval.

[sugooooooooi]

[Her ears wiggle and she tilts her head.] Really? I dunno about that, but I hope nobody's been mean to you.

[regression]

Many are socially stunted or they lack critical thinking. With a piece of someone's story, they try to judge others.

[ Like him and a number of people on the island, actually. He's a hypocrite since he's impulsive. ]

... No, they have been kind to me. It's almost strange.

[sugooooooooi]

How's it strange? [Headscratch.] People should be nice, even if they do only have a piece of someone's story. Nobody knows everything, right?

[regression]

... I'm not putting the blame on them. [ He might have said it's almost strange, but— ] My world wasn't so kind in comparison. That's all.

It's nice here.

[sugooooooooi]

I think it's fun, too! Though it's sad if the place you come from wasn't nice. Are you going to stay here?

[regression]

... No. There's something I have to do at home. Do you plan to stay here?

[sugooooooooi]

Nuh-uh. I have things to do, too. But I'll come back to visit everybody all the time!

[regression]

[ ... Coming back to visit. That's optimistic. ]

What do you have to do at home?

[sugooooooooi]

I'm helping Kaban-chan! We're travelling with a few other Friends to try and find where humans live. No one knows what their territory is.

[regression]

... I'm also going on a journey. [ Though not the same as her looking for humans, but the more he thinks about it. It kind of is? He's searching for someone. ] I hope we find what we seek.

[sugooooooooi]

Wow, really? I'm sure we will! You'll see!
