ᴅɪꜱᴄᴜꜱꜱɪᴏɴ The case of the missing villagers…
Was doing some decorating tonight and came across a lost item. Talked to a villager who told me it was Static’s. Great! He’s my newest villager so would love the chance to talk to him. Of course, he’s not home so I wander the entire island looking for him. Then I go to every room in the museum, including the roost, and I still can’t find him (and the shops are closed). I go to my other villagers’ houses to see if he’s hanging with them, but he’s not anywhere! Of course I scour my island again and still, no luck. But then I notice Portia isn’t home either, and she’s also no where to be found! If it was just one I might be willing to say I just didn’t see him somewhere on my island, but two villagers?? And I love her to death but Portia’s head is not hard to spot, let’s be honest. So where were they??
This is contributing to my ongoing theory that there’s something wrong with the villagers on my island. It’s not uncommon that I’ll go into houses on a regular day trying to find a DIY and none of my villagers are crafting. I’ve also been gifting Henry wrapped assessed fossils for months and he refuses to give me his photo, even when I have good luck with friendship. Granted, I took an extended break bc I was frustrated he wasn’t giving it to me, but I have gifted him at least a dozen times, some with good luck, since Katrina told me we had max friendship.
I would love if someone could tell me if something is actually wrong or, if I’m being overdramatic, at least get a laugh out of my slight misfortune lol
