i love animal crossing!! ๐ดโ๏ธ
Small spaces on Pirouette
So I did restart, I named the island Moonstone, and I'm really excited about this run! Muffy was already one of my starters, so I'm taking this as a good sign that I made a really good choice! My museum and Nook's Cranny are both up, I invited 3 villagers (Twiggy, Stu, and Jambette), and I'm really hoping to get all of my dreamies, but in the meantime I think this will be really cool. I'm hoping my dreamies pop up though, and I'm also thinking maybe I'll keep everything very jewel toned. No neutrals, just jewel tones, some metallics, celestial themed items, and black.
You know how every few months I debate restarting my island? I'm getting that itch again lol, I just really love the hustle and bustle of restarting and making everything new and trying to level everything up again, and I love how unique each run is! I've never had the exact same run, and I've TRIED TO a few times just for fun! It's pure joy to have the motivation and goals in the beginning all over again
Very helpful info in the YouTube comments of Koramora, hope this helps everyone!!
So I started a new island on Valentine's Day (which I'll be sticking with at least for a year, if not forever) because I forgot how great it feels to restart my island and have been thinking about it since January, all thanks to my lovely New Years island known as Cocoa Cove of course, so welcome to my new island Caochan Eit! If you're thinking, "Hey, that's too many characters!", you'd be correct lol, the way I wrote it in the game is simply Caochaneit.
Caochan and Eit are both Gaelic words (as I'm currently learning Gaelic) that are nature themed with "Caochan" meaning 'a small river hidden from view by vegetation' and "Eit" meaning 'quartz stones placed in a river by moonlight in hopes of catching fish'. I think they're great ways to describe my plans for my island, so I'm taking this very literally. I want to create a mystical rural town that specializes in fishing and farming vegetation. Maybe a farm to table even? Kinda dark fantasy vibes, but toned down in most areas... just not in my pine tree forest! That should remain pretty spooky and fantastical! I want it to have very big "they secretly pray, by moonlight, to a giant scary fish deity who is unfathomable and eats people but also blesses their harvests and fishing boats" vibes. It just feels pretty neat
It's going to be mainly practical with elements of the fantastical, and I'm still deciding on dreamies, but Kiki and Vesta seem like a great fit so far! Both have more earthy vibes, both could fit the mystical side of things, and both of them are fairly cottagecore. I also think that Vesta has a distinct "haunted scarecrow" vibe, and Kiki would be great for this village since she has that cute Halloween cat vibe but also seems like just an all around autumnal gal, and I have her amibo card too, so she might be the first villager I invite to stay with me!
I've already gotten all the way to having Isabelle on my island and just created my campsite, so I'm really hopeful that the story mode will pass by pretty quickly so I can simply enjoy villager hunting and decorating my island!
Oh no, you've caught them performing a seance without the filter on!๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ช
What if celestial cottagecore island that mainly has blue, white, green, purple, and gold as a color scheme, and I invite Tia, Baabara, Becky, Ione, Julian, Filbert, Eunice, Diva or Gloria, and Ed? Maybe Muffy? Like... kinda whimsigoth, maybe 60's/ 70's Renaissance revival as well, with a hint of dark fantasy?

I know everyone says this, but I really do agree that we should be allowed to play as an animal in animal crossing tbh... until then, I'm making my character a fursona!
Lionel is such an icon ๐ฆ
OH MY GODS I ALMOST FORGOT TO UPDATE THIS, I FOUND FLORA!!! I CAN MATCH WITH PIXIELOCKS, THAT'S SO COOL!!๐ฆฉ๐ฆฉ๐ฆฉ
I just invited Gala and Clay to my island, things are really shaping up! I also have Fuchsia and Drift currently, so everything feels fairly well-rounded. I can only invite one more character currently, wish me luck!!๐
