❝ Hey Nook. . . ❞

❝ Who's— Nook. I wanted to apologize. I don't know who this Legosi fellow is but they have nothing to do with us. ❞

™ㅤㅤㅤ虚構　; THAT FOREHEAD BRUUUUUUUUH

❝ I'm planning to. But isn't an apology first needed to fix this? I'm already working to pay it off. . . I promise you, I'll return everything. ❞ Scritching the back of his head.

❝ D– Do you even still recognize me?! I get the feeling you're talking to me as an island resident---! . . . I've already stopped scamming, Wolfgang gave a net and fishing rod. I'll make it work. I promise you. I won't make favours, I'll make it up to you, Nook. ❞

Ear flick. ❝ I said I wasn't. I'm not planning to, even if the residents insist on buying these god forsaken paintings——! ❞ Clinging onto Nook--- ❝ I just wanted another chance, we were great business partners. . . ❞

Puts his hands up—

❝ J– Just wanted time say hi! And it's a habit I can't b– break! ❞

Fiddling with his tail again. Now what to do with this big fucking shark in his pocket.

He sold the shark to C.J., he got 20,000 bells! So much! ❝ Maybe I will be okay. . . ❞

Fox noises.

Sad fox noises.

Cold.

. . . Yes.

Even with the sweater, he felt cold. Until now that is, his thin arms surrounding the Tanuki with hesitation. However, once done. . . he couldn't help but purr.

Nod nod. Redd rested his head upon Nook's, his purring as a result being much louder. ❝ Thank you. . . ❞

Literally Redd now:
