Fiddling Fixes Everything?

Winter, Sunday (Feb 20)

I did set up my house so that I and my guests would remove our inside the house, But why am I forced to remove my shoes inside the greenhouse, which is outdoors and not connected to the house?  Most ridiculous interpretation of Japanese culture ever!

Oh, Carly! If only you knew how much I’d love to visit you and our other friends living in Gibbi Point. But we’ll all be reunited in another week in Nordhaven. I cannot wait!

I get a notification that Marina the Royal Envoy is nearby. Looking around, I finally catch up to her at the info board for starting one of Senbamachi’s hiking trails.

Ugh, these tasks are starting to feel a lot like busy work. But, okay, I look up Princess Cordelia online. She was keenly interested in stolen treasure? I ask Juwon about her and learn that she was secretly a pirate. Hmmm, interesting.

Juwon: My creative lovebug self isn’t really into nerdy activities like this.

Tae: If you wanna be with me, though, learning to Insta-Upgrade really boosts your appeal.

Marina: Boy, you’re merely a cog in my nefarious machinations!

Tae: Yeah, yeah. Keep thinking that while I wipe the chess board with your…hah, checkmate!

(On phone to Royal Envoy): Uh huh, I’m checking out the Princess Cordelia bust as we speak. It’s your last errand this week, right? What, just a lot trait? When do I get a new aspiration?

Juwon: Don’t tell me we’re spending more time in WIllow Creek!

Tae: This time will be different, you’ll see!

Juwon: It’s freezing cold and windy, but you’re watering that tree?

Tae: Hey, I just caught a new frog!

Juwon (to himself): Not sure I like this transformation of my lovable, artsy, musical Tae into an obsessive collector. Well, at least it’s sunny here. I’ll play the violin Tae gave me until he’s done here.
