Long Interval

LONG INTERVAL
[Player]. It's been a while. I mosey on over to yer farm to check on things every once in a while, but yer always out! Aw, shucks. I'm just glad to see yer doing fine. Come see me sometimes, though. I get worried, y'know.

PLAYER_DOWN
How ya feelin'? Sheesh! Takin' proper care of yerself is part of the job, y'know. Next time, learn yer limits, okay?
Anyway, right now, I'm just glad yer awright. Don't push yerself so far goin' forward.

Town Upgrade

BRIDGE
Every time I look at our sturdy new bridge, I done get m'self ruminatin' on how the whole town got together to build it. It's a symbol of what we can do when we all work together, an' that makes me real proud.

BELL
Havin' a bell tower in town is pretty darn nice, y'know? Wouldn't have gotten it, neither, if it weren't for you, [Player]. Thanks!

BRONZE_STATUE
Seems that the buffalo statue you helped us clean up is turnin' into a popular meet-up spot with the young'uns. Wouldn't have happened without yer help, [Player]. Thanks for doin' whatcha do for our town.

GODDESS_STATUE
Buildin' that goddess statue took some real effort. But now that it's been put up, there's this...I dunno...feelin' of unity to ev'rybody 'round these parts.
We were all friends before, but it feels like now we done come together even more!

Collaboration

RESTAURANT_00
About that new dish at Brad's place...that sweet potater thing. Ya got the ingredients for it, right?
Not bad, [Player]! Those were some darn good taters! Who'da thunk to turn 'em into a dessert, though?

RESTAURANT_00
Howdy, [Player]. I hear that mince pie recipe ya collaborated on is really takin' off. Marco said he was real grateful to ya.

PERFUME
I hear you an' Lisette got together to make some perfumes. She was gushin' 'bout how good they turned out thanks to ya. Who knows? Maybe someday, Westown'll be known for its perfume!

Weather

SUNNY_SPRING
Nice spring day out, ain't it? Looks like the livestock are happy to be outside.

RAIN_SPRING
Don't like goin' outside much when it rains. Kinda miserable! Fortunately, I don't gotta worry 'bout waterin' the crops.

SNOW_SPRING
It sure gets cold when it snows... It's easy to hurt yerself on cold days. Ya best watch yerself, [Player].

SUNNY_SUMMER
Boy, it's humid today. Bein' all sweaty ain't too comfortable for nobody, people or plant. Maybe I'll water m'crops one more time.
On days like this, when I go an' water my crops, I can almost see 'em lookin' happier for it.

RAIN_SUMMER
Oof. It was plenty humid enough already. Didn't need no rain to make it even worse. We sometimes get typhoons this time of year. Every time it starts to rain, I gotta wonder if one is blowin' up.

SNOW_SUMMER
It sure gets cold when it snows... It's easy to hurt yerself on cold days. Ya best watch yerself, [Player].

SUNNY_AUTUMN
The sky's real clear an' pretty today. Just lookit that blue. Makes the day feel good an' cool, don't it? And feelin' good makes the appetite grow, don'tcha reckon? Fall's when all kinds of good stuff is ready to pick, too. I can't help but gorge m'self!

RAIN_AUTUMN
Fall rain sure does bring a chill, don't it? Reminds ya winter ain't too far away.

SNOW_AUTUMN
It sure gets cold when it snows... It's easy to hurt yerself on cold days. Ya best watch yerself, [Player].

SUNNY_WINTER
Nice winter day, ain't it? Air feels real fresh an' crisp. Wish it didn't hafta be s'darn cold, though.

RAIN_WINTER
Goin' out on a rainy day is risky. Though, I don't hafta worry about waterin' the crops...

SNOW_WINTER
It was already cold enough, but the snow makes it feel even colder. We'll get blizzards 'round this time of year, so be on the lookout.

TYPHOON
[Player], what do ya reckon yer doin'? Who knows what the wind's slingin' around out there. Ya could get hurt!
I'm glad yer gung-ho about yer work, but on a day like this here one, it's smarter to stay inside.

HEAVYSNOW
[Player], whaddaya reckon yer doin'? You'll freeze, wanderin' 'round outside in this snow.
I'm glad yer gung-ho about yer work, but on a day like this here one, it's smarter to stay inside.

Time

MORNING_TALK_00
Mornin', [Player]. Time to get the workday started, eh?

MORNING_TALK_01
Ya sure got a lotta energy for this early in the mornin'. That's good. Mornin's a real important time for farmers. When yer raisin' crops, that's when ya want to water 'em. First thing in the mornin'!

AFTERNOON_TALK_00
Howdy, [Player]. Is it midday already? Time flies by pretty fast when yer busy with chores.

AFTERNOON_TALK_01
Do ya go for walks, [Player]? I'll take a stroll here an' there m'self, when I find the time. Each town has its own unique look an' feel. It can be fun just to walk through 'em!

MAN_EVENING_TALK_00
Looks like yer finishin' up for the day, too. Be sure to get some good rest tonight, so's yer ready for tomorrow.

MAN_EVENING_TALK_01
Evenin' [Player]. Ya still got a lotta energy, even after a long day. Me, I'm feelin' a li'l beat.

WOMAN_EVENING_TALK_00
Looks like yer finishin' up for the day, too. Be sure to get some good rest tonight, so's yer ready for tomorrow.

WOMAN_EVENING_TALK_01
Finishin' up for the day, [Player]? What, ya aren't? Still goin' out an' about at this hour?
Yer young yet, an' wanderin' around in the dark is dangerous. Don't stay out too late, y'hear?

Feeling

FEELING_GOOD_TALK_00
Howdy, [Player]. How's it goin'? Me, I'm havin' a right fine day! I'm feelin' good, an' work is going great.

FEELING_GOOD_TALK_01
I've been feelin' good today. In fact, I bet I'll be able to write up a real nice song or two, even!
It feels good to do good work on the farm, but playin' a new song when I'm feelin' this good is a real treat!

FEELING_TIRED_TALK_00
<SIIIIGH> ...Ah, sorry [Player]. Looks like I ain't feelin' too good today.

FEELING_TIRED_TALK_01
Hmm... Reckon I'm feelin' a li'l tired. Maybe I'll take it easy today.

MAN_CHANGE_FEELING_GOOD
Y'know, I'm startin' to feel better now. Maybe it's 'cause o' that bright ol' smile o' yers.

WOMAN_CHANGE_FEELING_GOOD
Y'know, I'm startin' to feel better now. Maybe it's 'cause o' that bright ol' smile o' yers.

MAN_CHANGE_FEELING_BAD
Whew... I just ain't feelin' too good today. Aw, shucks. Just one o' them days.

WOMAN_CHANGE_FEELING_BAD
Whew... I just ain't feelin' too good today. Aw, shucks. Just one o' them days.

Today

TODAY_GODDESS
Today's the Goddess Festival. Every year, I bake up a big ol' pizza for everyone. Can't wait to taste it m'self!

TODAY_GAME
It's the Trilympics today. All the young'uns have been real excited for it. How 'bout you, [Player]? Me? I'll admit I'm kinda interested in them prizes. I'm aimin' to give those youngsters a run for their money!

TODAY_DRINK
You can bring crops ya raised yerself to the Beverage Bash, if'n ya want. I always take some o' my best.

MAN_TODAY_FRIENDSHIP
Tonight's the Starlight Gala. Though I reckon I'll be spendin' it alone, like I always do. Darn. I'm startin' to put m'self in a glum mood. [Player], ya make sure ya don't wind up like me, y'hear?

WOMAN_TODAY_FRIENDSHIP
Tonight's the Starlight Gala. Though I reckon I'll be spendin' it alone, like I always do. Darn. I'm startin' to put m'self in a glum mood. [Player], do ya reckon there's ladyfolk out there who would ask a man like me out for the Starlight Gala?

TODAY_NEW_YEAR
Round these parts, we done got a big party for New Year's, then we finish it up with a fireworks show. If yer lookin' to have a rollickin' good time for New Year's, this here's the place to be!

TODAY_FLOWER_FESTIVAL
Here ya go, [Player]. Today's the Flower Fair, y'know. Reckon I oughta show m'thanks. Teachin' ya the ins an' outs of farmin' has made me remember how much fun it can be. Thank ya, [Player]!

Campaign

CAMPAIGN_GODDESS_00
Donations for the Goddess Festival? Guess Megan roped ya into helping out, huh? Hmm... How much to donate this year...?

CAMPAIGN_GODDESS_01
Ha ha! Well, if yer gon' do all the work to do the collectin', guess I might as well be extra generous, huh? There ya go. Give m'regards to Megan!

CAMPAIGN_GODDESS_02
Reckon I'll give this much. Wishin' ya good luck with the rest!

Map

MAP_WESTOWN_00
Y'see the mining points 'round here? Anybody can go up an' mine at 'em when they want. With some luck, y'can make a li'l money off whatcha find. Just don't shirk yer farm chores on account o' hittin' it big.

MAP_WESTOWN_01
I mosey on down this way to go shoppin' from time to time. They always got the seeds an' tools an' stuff I need. Sometimes I'll go check out shops in the other towns, though. They'll have some pretty neat an' unusual stuff.

MAP_WESTOWN_02
M'grandpappy--he'd be yer great- grandpappy--was the one who dug this here well. The water comes from that river over yonder. That river's got real pure water. An' pure water helps raise the best crops!

MAP_WESTOWN_03
All the nature 'round these parts means lots o' wild animals. Some of 'em can get mischievous, but they're all cute in their own way.

MAP_SHOOTING_STAR
A whole lotta luck goes into spottin' a fallin' star. When I was a young'un, I'd hold off blinkin' just so I could try an' spot one!

MAP_WINDMILL
To me, just watchin' the windmill there spin away in the breeze lifts me up! It's a sign that it's another fresh an' windy day!

MAP_MILKY_WAY
I was about yer age when I first came here to Westown. Got m'first glimpse o' the Silky Way then, too. Yessiree, that done be one o' the prettiest sights I ever did seen. Ya don't get a sky like this in the big-time city, y'know.

MAP_SNOWMAN
Back in the day, me an' yer pa useta make snowmen every time the white stuff came a- dumpin'! We'd race to see who could build the bigger one faster! Didja ever build a snowman with yer sister?

MAP_TREE
Single folks like me don't get many chances to decorate a tree for the season. Not much point in doin' it by yerself. Besides, gettin' to help decorate this big ol' tree out here is plenty satisfyin' enough!

MAP_MY_HOUSE_00
Once the day's work is done, I'll sit down an' practice m'guitar a li'l. How 'boutcha c'mon over an' listen sometime?

Meal

Meal
Sorry, I'm in the middle of eatin'. If'n ya need somethin', couldja come back later?

MEAL_WITH_00
Y'know what? If ya got the time, how 'bout you sit on down an' eat with me?

MEAL_WITH_01
Good. I made a li'l too much just for m'self, anyway. Have a seat an' wait right there!

MEAL_WITH_02
Ah. Okay. Maybe some other time, then.

Friendship

Man

MAN_FRENDSHIP_CONVERSATION_00

MAN_FRENDSHIP_CONVERSATION_01

MAN_FRENDSHIP_CONVERSATION_02

Yer doin' fine? Good. Sorry, I just get a- worryin' sometimes. I'm here to help, y'know. Ya can come to me any time!

MAN_FRENDSHIP_CONVERSATION_03
I reckon I've been doin' pretty well for m'self an' having a good ol' time with m'work.
But since ya came, every day has felt even more fun an' fulfillin'. Reckon it comes from watchin' how much fun this all is for ya!

MAN_FRENDSHIP_CONVERSATION_04
I always meant to do what I could to be a help to ya, [Player], but I never expected we'd get to be this close.
Ha ha! I gotta admit I'm a li'l jealous o' m'brother for havin' a son like you!
What? Be jealous of the wife first, the kids second? Oof... Not much I can say to that!

BLESSING_ENGAGEMENT_OTHER
So you an' [fiancé(e)name] are finally tyin' the knot, [Player]. Looks like ya beat me to it, huh?

MAN_BLESSING_MARRIAGE
Congrats on tyin' the knot, [Player]. Guess there ain't no treatin' you like a child, now that you went an' stood at that altar. You do good by [wife name], y'hear? Support her an' give her all the happiness y'can.

COMING_MOTHER_00
[Player], I hear Marlena's in town. I met her once a good long time ago. I'd better go an' say "howdy" all proper-like. I bet she wants to hear all 'bout whatcha been up to.

Talk

Talk 0
Stuff I don't like? I'd like to say there ain't nothin', but I ain't too fond of li'l teeny fancy- pants dishes. They look pretty, but there ain't much actual food there. I like my meals to be fillin'. Can't work on an empty stomach, y'hear?

Talk 1
When different folks raise the same crop, they'll get different results. Flavor, quality, even color an' shape'll be diff'rent. That's why I like takin' a look at how other folks raise their crops. I can always learn somethin' new!

Talk 2
Me an' yer pa, we've always gotten along great. It's kinda hard for us to see each other, given how far apart we live. But we still let each other know what's goin' on in our lives with letters.
The number of letters goin' back an' forth has gone up since ya moved here, y'know. Yer pa's concerned about yer well bein'!

Talk 3
Ya met m'pooch, Lucky, right? Ain't he just the cutest li'l thing? Smart, too. He'll sometimes help me with m'chores.

Talk 4
Lucky's a rescue. I found him when he was still a li'l puppy an' took him in. With him around, my big ol' house don't feel all that empty.

Talk 5
What do I do on m'days off? Well, when my chores are all finished up, I'll either practice m'guitar or go for a stroll. When I go out walkin', I take Lucky with me. He knows when I'm about to go, too, an' he'll come up to me with his tail a-waggin'.

Talk 6
Why am I still single?
Sheesh. First Wayne, now you come pokin' me about the same thing.
I'm not too good at multitaskin', I guess. I get so busy takin' care of my farm, any pardner winds up takin' second place. I'm just no good at treatin' both farm an' pardner like they deserve. So I held back on datin' for a while...an' now I'm old.

Talk 7
Sometimes Miranda will put on a li'l performance at the restaurant. Word is, she used to be a pro singer. You can tell, too. She's got a real nice voice. She'll ask me to join her on my guitar sometimes. I keep practicin' hard so that I'm good enough to be playin' along with that voice.

Talk 8
Wayne's a good feller. He an' I've been on friendly terms since he first moved here. He looks like he's easy with the ladyfolk, but he ain't tryin' to flirt. To him, that's the normal way he acts around all ladyfolk. I don't reckon I could ever do what he does. Even if I tried, I doubt I'd get the same reaction outta them ladyfolk!

Talk 9
I know this was a while ago, but when I first heard from yer pa that you wanted to be a farmer, I was real happy. It's a good feeling when folks in yer family enjoy whatcha do. I fully meant to give ya all the trainin' ya could handle, too!

Talk 10
At first, I thought I'd never amount to much as a guitar player. But lookin' back, my life would've turned out pretty dull without it. I even compose my own ditty or two every now an' again. Right now, I hope to someday get good enough to really bring out the best in Miranda's voice when we perform together.

Talk 11
Y'know the river in front of my house? Every once in a while, I'll hear the sound of a li'l girl crying from that direction.
'Course, I run straight out to see what's wrong, but I never see any li'l girl. Do ya reckon it's a...ghost?

Talk 12
Ya may not know it from lookin' at me now, but I was a pretty scrawny, sickly li'l kid. Then one day, my parents decided to have me live with my grandparents on their farm for a while so I could get fresh air an' sunshine! Livin' there got me interested in farming real quick--an' now, here I am.

Talk 13
My farm useta belong to my grandparents-- yer great-grandpappy an' great- grandmammy--before I inherited it from 'em! Once they got too old to keep up with the work, I took it over for 'em.

Talk 14
Hmm... Ah! Howdy, [Player]. Nah, I was just reckonin' I ain't sure I like how the design on that last dish turned out.
Aw, shucks. That'll happen sometimes. I'll just hafta try harder next time.

Talk 15
Hobbies? Hmm... Reckon I got quite a few, actually. Pottery's one. I ain't real good at all, but I still enjoy it. It's real fulfillin' pullin' a piece outta the kiln, knowin' it started out as just a lump of clay in yer hands. Wannna try sometime?

Talk 16
What, ya don't see me talkin' with the ladyfolk much?
True...I'm not too good at gabbin' with ladyfolk who aren't close family or friends. I just dunno what to say to 'em!

Talk 17
Miranda's a real cheery lady, ain't she? She moved in here soon after li'l Noel was born. Feels like the whole town brightened up after she came. No surprise a social butterfly like her would liven things up!

Talk 18
Li'l Noel's a lot like her ma, both in personality an' musical talent. Sometimes we'll play togther, her on the piano an' me on my guitar! Can't wait till we can put on some real performances.

Talk 19
[Player], how goes the farm work? It can be draining, doin' the same thing over an' over again. I know. Times like that, a change o' pace is a good idea. There's lots of places 'round these parts where ya can take a quick break!

Talk 20
[Player], been to any o' the other towns yet? I go out for a stroll pretty often m'self, but I don't usually go too far. If'n ya find any nice places, lemme know.

Talk 21
I'm sure ya prolly know this already, but there's lotsa diff'rent sorts of folks 'round these parts. There's bound to be times when ya wanna get to know a certain person better, but things don't go quite the way you want. That's when you wanna get to know their friends an' ask 'em if there's anythin' you can do. Remember that! It'll be a big ol' help!

Talk 22
Megan ain't just town elder. She's also our senior farmer! I got a lotta help from her when I first came here. Before Hector moved back, she'd be kind enough to help me with big chores like harvestin'. I still go to her for advice!

Talk 23
Y'know, Hector's pretty fond o' machines. He looks like he's havin' so much fun when he's tinkerin' 'round with one. It's like he's turned back into a li'l kid. Reckon he's liked machines for a good long time.

Talk 24
Hector's a straitlaced guy who don't talk too much. I know some folks reckon he's scary, but ain't no such thing as a bad farmer! He's a good one, too. Does real careful, meticulous work. I'll mosey on over to him an' get advice m'self!

Talk 25
Colin is a lot like his pa in a lot of ways, 'cept for expressions. The kid has a big ol' smile, an' he's not afraid to show it.
I useta tickle that li'l sucker to get him to smile, but I reckon I overdid it. Now he stays out of arm's reach when I'm around!

Talk 26
Brad moved into town so that he could take over runnin' the restaurant from his grandpappy Marco.
He's a good kid. Young an' has a talent for cookin'. I'm sure we'll be lookin' forward to good food at the restaurant for years to come!

Talk 27
Feels like the whole restaurant done lights up whenever Carrie comes 'round. I hope she an' Brad keep up the good work there.
But, uh... There was that one time I got the, uh, "privilege" of tryin' her home cookin'!
She does a good job of workin' with the customers. Reckon that's where her talents are!

Talk 28
Have ya tried any of Marco's cookin' yet? Give him any veggie, an' he'll turn it into the best dish ya ever done tasted.
Nowadays, he lets Brad handle most of the work an' goes off fishin' by noon. Yer gonna find him by the river--if'n ya find him at all!

Talk 29
Marco was the first to get the produce I raised an' use it at his restaurant. Once word got 'round o' the tasty dishes he'd make outta 'em, other places started orderin' produce from me. I'm real grateful to him. Even now that Brad's runnin' the restaurant, they still get their produce from me.

Talk 30
[Player], have ya met Umekichi an' Omiyo over in Tsuyukusa yet? Those two raise some real tasty produce. Be careful if you ask 'em about it! They'll talk yer ear right off.
