I started this Animal Crossings New Horizons Island back in May 2023, but I finally caved and made an account for it! I post mainly ACNH-related things, but occasionally other Nintendo games such as Pokémon. Everything gets sent to the queue except reblogs! I follow from @elflikesfrogs.
I recorded everything on the island to make a tour video, but I’m not sure when I can get around to edit it, and I really wanted to post the dream address
I tried my best to make the island as lag free as possible and to avoid clutter🤞while including as many locations and refs to characters as possible
Locations on the island that are not marked on the map pic:
Hieda house | Aki farms | Keiki’s creative zone | Deep Road to Hell | Rainbow Dragon Cave entrance | Area for danmaku battles | Hill of the Nameless | Mokou & Mystia food stands | Hina & Momiji spot
(in Resident Rep home) Dream World | Sannyo’s gambling den | Palanquin Ship | Ruined Western Mansion | Hakugyokurou | Hell Ruins/Nuclear Furnace
(and some silly stuff on the beach) Synth and beer bottles | Beach math class | Horse plinko
package day! the new radio eva kaworus were originally supposed to be released this month but got pushed back, so...
besides the now-delayed kaworus, i only had two acrylic stands in my november order
megane fraud incident and megane fraud incident's government-issue dog looking as nice as always! did not want to pay international shipping for just two stands though so scoured what else was available for november and
it finally happened
i caved and got my first re-ment set orz
always told myself NOT to get into these little furniture sets because they are fucking adorable and i am absolutely not going to be able to resist getting more after i get one. but this one was in stock and was very season-appropriate so...
the boys have a kotatsu now ( ´ ▽ ` )b just like in my ichisama acnh house
there's also a really nice like three-tiered bento that came with this set, but i'll have to put it together later because i somehow cut my thumb pretty bad while opening plastic bags lol
need to find or somehow make some tatami flooring for them too (knew that wasn't in the set but have not been able to find it for sale separately yet)
ALSO
there was this hella cute reindeer poncho in stock that i just had to grab for ichiro bc of love tapped. it is for a 20cm doll so it's waaay too big for ichinui
(he looks adorable in it tho)
but the new 20cm plushes for rhyme anima are releasing in january so... i'll see if the poncho fits them when they arrive lol
thinking about picking one up for samatoki too but not sure which to get... i think there's a blue-ish cat one? and an alice in wonderland one lmao decisions decisions
Random memory so way back when ACNH was released That Guy got a Switch Lite so we could potentially play it together (but refused to get a second cartridge and then got mad when I said no he can’t set up a house on my island, so...) and I remembered earlier today how he was being condescending back then about me saying I was having a little trouble fishing, especially trying to get the fishing achievement, when there was noise in the house because I couldn’t hear the bobber sound and he was like “Why do you need to hear it? You hit the button when it vibrates. It’s not hard.”
And I was like “It doesn’t vibrate... Yours vibrates?????”
The Switch Lite doesn’t have rumble capability at all.
He didn’t believe me until he tried fishing on the Lite, and he was like “oh....”
That stuck with me because he was being an asshole to me over me struggling with something that was easy for him because he had an advantage over me (being a secondary indicator that a fish was on the line) that he didn’t even know was different for me on the other console.
My PS4 controller is horribly drifty. Both sticks drift so I’m constantly having to fight to direct my toon, and the left stick constantly pops in and out of “I am running” mode when walking (run is a quick tap-tap forward, whereas walk is push forward).
That makes me more cautious when exploring because my controller will randomly launch me forward or sideways, greatly increasing the risk of me falling into a cave or chasm, dying, and losing all of my gear.
But I’m used to it.
I just don’t do much exploring and stick to things I can more safely do (and get mocked for being cautious and anxious).
That’s kind of what it’s like being disabled. There are things you end up having to give up for your own safety, and you endlessly fight with your own body just to keep moving.
Eyeless Jack with fem S/O who is fan of Legend of Zelda series as S/O tries to get him be as BOTW Link as S/O as BOTW Zelda? 🦋
S/O trying to get EJ to cosplay BOTW with her!
obligatory ive never really touched a LoZ games or series outside of like. the ben drowned crp but i doubt that counts since its a fan made story !! so this is mostly going to be like, vague stuff since i have next to no clue of the games' contents so this'll be heavy on the dressing up part! hope you enjoy!
he probably gets into gaming on handheld consoles during his college years, and carries that into his life living in the woods as a hermit (dont ask how he charges his stuff in a run down cabin we can just assume he has a generator or something)
he likes those therapeutic chill games! think ACNH, helps him keep his feelings and stress in check since that can effect his funky curse thing that made him. eyeless jack. do not let this man play slime rancher you will not see or hear from him for a week
anyways
so you introduce him to one of the legend of zelda games! he's into it, but he'd much rather watch you play or ramble on about the games and lore. he himself isn't much of a talker so he likes it when you fill the silence
at first he's against the idea when you first propose the cosplay, mostly because cosplay isnt really his thing, but also because where would the costumes come from?
if you insist on making it yourself he'll also be against it, he doesn't want you to make anything for him (and that's on him not knowing how to handle receiving gifts, but that's an entirely different thing for a different post)
but lets say, you get him to cave. hes going to insist on helping, this guy knows how to sew! he lives in the woods! he has to patch up his own clothes! plus he'll force you to step back if you prick your finger one too many times
both because "aww he doesnt want you hurting!" but also "fresh dripping blood around eyeless jack is dangerous because hes like a cracked out piranha"
when the costumes are done you guys just kinda
stand there and stare at each other and stare for a few minutes in the middle of the cabin
one of the rare times you see him without the mask since the thing was throwing off the rest of the costume
dont expect him to go out with you without something covering his face, though, you may have to rely on a hood or make a new mask that at least fits with the theme or vibe of the character. good luck trying to get jack to budge out past the door's threshold without it
stubborn prick
his ears are already pointed so you don't need to make ear prosthetics/j
good luck getting this guy to go to a con with you/j
OHOH NO because of course, spooky season, imagine convincing him to help you hand out candy at your place
or or or
you guys go out and about in your costumes showing off
sure he'll shuffle around awkwardly behind you, since he's not really. good with eyes on him...
or eyes in him/j
im sorry that was really mean spirited and uncalled for it will happen again
overall? he enjoys the time spent with you from you info dumping on him to just simply walking with him around town!
will he go out and walk with you again? probably not, at least not on nights where everyone is out and not when he's wearing this costume of an iconic character that's bound to catch some attention
7/10 experience, docked some points since you can feel the tension radiating off of him once you get him out of his cabin
don't bring it up but he keeps the costume in pristine condition when he isn't wearing it, and keeps it nearly folded and stored somewhere where it's not likely to get a bloodsplatter on it from one of his feeding nights
bonus hc but its steering a little off topic imagine walking in on him furiously scrubbing on the costumes tunic(?) because he got one (1) drop of blood on it. like he's hunched over on the floor over it trying to get the stain out, muttering n cursing under his breath
