once I have animal crossing new horizons in my hands and I cry for a good half-hour as my brain processes that I finally have the game and all of this is real and I stop crying and load up the game and then start crying again as I make my character bc I truly can’t believe that I’m playing the new animal crossing and then I stop crying again and get to designing my island it’s over for you hoes

Your favorite Dr. Shrunk emotion?

Animal Crossing Countdown Challenge, day 83

What is your favorite flower?

Roses! Carnations are a close second but roses are The Best. My main town is full of pink ones and black ones (that I’m trying to turn gold) and I think they’re the most satisfying flower to breed :>

Animal Crossing Countdown Challenge, day(s) 95-84

I got really frustrated at day 95 and then so much holiday related stuff happened so I kept neglecting this 😂

95. Draw you and your rival villager

I was going to do this but I am bad at art and didn’t feel comfortable posting it! But it was me and Genji because he won’t leave and I don’t like him

94. Do you have a favorite grass pattern? 

Personally I think squares look the best. I really don’t like circles but I don’t think I’ve ever even had a town with circle grass in it, tbh? 

93. Tell us your favorite villager species.

It’s boring but I love cats so much 😭 I think overall there are more cats I like total than any other species. I have so many favorite villagers but in quite a few species I only really like one or two of them!

92. Your favorite town fruit.

Peaches! But apples are a close second! Peaches were the fruit of my first New Leaf town (and I love pink a lot). Apples were the first fruit I ever had (in the gamecube game). ‘Perfect’ peaches are kinda bleh though, whereas perfect apples are so nice and shiny :’)

91. Your favorite river fish.

Either a koi or a piranha. I really love having koi in my house but I love visiting the piranhas at the museum c:

90. Design a new Public Works Project.

Hmm... Something more interactive for the villagers and the player. Similar to the picnic blanket but where the villagers can actually sit down on the blanket and eat/chat. So maybe like a tea table? A designated zone for tea parties would be great 🥰 Snooty villagers would be the ones to suggest it, because they’re the ~fancy, refined~ ones. Snooty, Normal, and Peppy types would get the most enjoyment out of it, but Smug would also enjoy it. Lazy villagers would mostly comment on having cookies/biscuits and what foods are acceptable at tea parties. Cranky types wouldn’t see the point.

89. Your favorite diving catch.

Scallops just because I like seeing Pascal 😆

88. Your favorite villager dialogue.

Oh my gosh dskjfbskj I can’t think of any specifics! Definitely any time I’ve gotten really close to a Cranky type and they start talking about how good of friends we are. Also love the conversations they have that you can listen in/butt in on. I think there was one I had between Cyrano and some other villager, and he was talking about doting on his daughter if he ever had one 😭 it was so Pure

87. Which is better, Bug-Off or Fishing Tourney?

Fishing Tourney!!! 🐟

I don’t really enjoy catching bugs very much! But I looove fishing :>

86. Have you already named your town?

I have not! I need to start thinking about it. I can’t tell if I want to go with my usual (albeit accidental) theme. I’ve unintentionally named all my towns starting with the letter H, ever since I was 10. (Hawaii, Hyrule, Hylia, Honnepon, Hasetsu) So I might need to start thinking along those lines and go from there :D

85. Draw us your go-to outfit.

Maybe I’ll do this later but for now I’ll describe them. Excluding QR code dresses, it’s gotta be, like, the milkmaid dress with clogs!! Or something funny to amuse my friends when we play together -- hotdog hat, some weird ugly shirt skdfbjksbdk I almost always wear cute QR clothes I’ve found on here or Pinterest though. Always dresses with black shoes and maybe glasses!

84. Your all-time best friend favorite villager.

Cyrano!! When I got New Leaf, I was resetting for a layout I liked, and I eventually settled on a town that started with Cyrano, Rowan, Nibbles, Whitney, and someone else. I wasn’t sure how I felt about Cyrano but when I showed him to my friend, she said “oh I love him” and I decided I would give him a chance.

Ever since then I’ve loooved him. He’s always the one coming to my house uninvited, he gives me gifts all the time, he came up with the nickname “Sweet-E”, and he’s the one who gives me birthday presents! ugh he’s so good I love his lil freckles

I know anteaters aren’t a very popular favorite, and neither are Cranky types (based on what the most desirable dreamies I’ve seen are), but I can’t imagine not having him around! If he’s not in New Horizons I’m going to be super duper sad :(

Animal Crossing Countdown Challenge, day(s) 100-96

Got a few days of catching up to do before I can actively do the countdown proper, so 😌

100. What was your first Animal Crossing game?

My first game was the Gamecube one, aka Population Growing! I got it for Christmas in 2002, I think? I don’t believe I knew very much about it, other than that I saw it in the shops and it looked very cute and I had just gotten a Gamecube so it was one of my first games for that too :>

99. Name your favorite special character.

I think I really like Sable the best. I really enjoy befriending her and seeing that slow growth of your relationship with her. Most characters don’t really get that, and I think that the Able Sisters having a little backstory that is unique to them is really lovely. Other villagers don’t have unique dialogue (even though it can feel like it because they have so much to say and you don’t get most of them in your town), so I love that Sable (and Mabel) have their own thing.

98. What’s your favorite AC season?

I wanted to immediately say spring, but it might actually be winter? I definitely love the cherry blossom trees and everything being green (I prefer spring irl for sure), but winter in Animal Crossing has Toy Day and the jingly music and the Christmas lights on the trees, snow everywhere, and the New Year’s fireworks. At least in December it’s kind of magical and lovely!

97. Your favorite villager personality.

It might be Cranky! I really don’t like the designs of a lot of the Cranky characters because they’re often a little weird/ugly to me, but befriending a Cranky villager always ends up super rewarding imo. They don’t even ~feel~ Cranky after a while because they can be incredibly sweet! 💖

96. Amiibo cards or Amiibo figures, which do you like more?

Amiibo cards. I have a few of the figures and I do like collecting figures in general, but they only really make them of the special characters and I love the villagers a lot more :/ My girlfriend and I collected a ton of the cards at the very tail end of their existence and we were SO bummed that we missed out on being able to collect more of them. I really wish I had them all! We tried our best to get the ones of the villagers we really, really loved and had to make do with that. We keep them in a little binder now 😊

[emryscrossing]

I saw this posted on Facebook and I thought it might be fun to bring it to the AC community here, so we can stay active and excited until the new game releases (credits go to ChuyPlaysNintendo and IslandGrizzly)

[emryscrossing]

I haven’t made a post on this blog in over 6 years 😱

it’s not like I haven’t been thinking about and playing Animal Crossing either!! I just forgot I had a blog 😳

Hopefully in the next 96(!) days I can start being active again and join in on the festivities when the new game comes out! ✨
