Turning Over A New Leaf: Episode 10 – ‘Prehistoric Mutant Ninja Turtle’

Still it rains, but the locals like it.

Rice milk? I’m more a strawberry or chocolate soya type.  If we had Rice Krispies for hailstones, that would be cool.

Kevin made me an offer as mayor I couldn’t refuse.

Even if I did want to run away screaming!

Why his home is made to look like a construction site is anyone’s guess.

He was impressed with the way I managed to whip a flea off him.  Like all other insects, you need to be sneaking for this to work.

I’m beginning to wonder if this bridge is a common factor? Kevin and Bones both having one after crossing it. Maybe there is some sort of troll under the bridge who throws fleas on anyone crossing.

Memo to myself: Find three Billy Goats to eradicate problem. Preferably gruff.

Never, ever, hit a villager with the net if they do not have a flea on them. Not only is it a good way to get on their wrong side, but any witnesses or friends of theirs too – bang down goes your citizen satisfaction points. Being mean to villagers (even if you don’t like them) is pretty douchy anyway.

Part and parcel of being mayor is learning to be tolerant – putting up with others you may not like.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf is like those old cartoons with the moral lesson at the end, like when the head Thundercat, Batman or whoever would wag his finger at the screen and say ‘Now remember kids, violence never solved anything’ after spending the previous half hour of punching the f**k out of everything that crossed his path.

Maybe that wasn’t the best comparison. I’ll shut up now.

Try it out Cookie? What else can I do when I spend all my time making money for Tom Nook!

At the museum, a historic moment (alright, a museum is a collection of historic moments but you know what I mean!). Our first completed dinosaur display.

You really do not want to read what he said next. Right when I thought he could not get any weirder.

Let’s have a look at this Archelon anyway.

It made Camofrog happy at any rate.

Blathers thinks of them as something else entirely, Camofrog, but you really don’t want me to elaborate on it.

Sylvia has a robust cicada fetish. Must be the pheremones they give off.

Okay, have it, leave me alone you sick weirdo.

Memo to myself: never have robust cicadas about my person when Sylvia is around.

As if there wasn’t enough weirdness in Dalby…

Em, was it good for you? Did the earth move?

At least Cookie’s request was more normal.

Of course I will. I always do.

No matter how few Bells or whatever other crap you proffer.

Yes, I think the Able Sisters would make a fortune selling these.

Today’s be careful what you wish for moment. Remember yesterday I said about Sylvia being a purple kangaroo and asked ‘what next, a yellow hippo?’

Oh gods Of Animal Crossing: New Leaf, why do you mock me so? Although I do love his wallpaper and carpet so much, I cannot wait for him to unpack and find out what his home looks like.

There’s also another little mystery to solve, Scooby Doo.

Builders are banging and hammering away behind blue tarpurlin covered scaffording between Nookling Junction and the Able Sisters. What is going on? As mayor, shouldn’t I be kept informed?

The plot thickens.
