Billington:An Island Chock Full O' Ducks

[Nunnafinga]

Sleepy time

Scoot is annoyed by Molly's excessively loud chewing noises.

Had another visit with my off-island ducks.Wow,that Joey is on the cutting edge of fashion.

Sherb the goat boy visited the Billington campsite recently.I think he might be getting bored over on my other island.

I'd really like to read that comic."You wanna pizza me?Donut take me lightly or it's pasta la vista time,baby!"

The mysterious Jack arrived for Billington's first Halloween.

Geez,Ketchup and Pompom look positively evil.

I had four devil ducks waddling around the island.

Scoot wore animal ears over his perma-helmet.I wonder if he has a pointy head under there?

These ducks are real chickens when facing fake Jack.

Wow,I can't believe Ketchup was so willing to surrender herself and become Jack's evil minion.I'm gonna keep my eye on her from now on.

Halloween was a good time but....how did I wind up with five Jack's robes?

The Big 2.0 Update
-------------------------

Derwin was my first 2.0 visitor.

Ha......I recall suggesting this very thing on one of those New Leaf "What would you change?" threads a while back.It's just a simple card game but at least we can interact with our villagers a bit more and not just follow them around our houses.

This is a throwback to the original AC: Gamecube.I'm still terrible at it.Kapp'n looks kinda beefy in New Horizons.

Return of the gyroids.I think I like the new versions better than the originals.Convenient pocket size.

New Horizons Kapp'n is more business-like and not flirty like New Leaf Kapp'n.Thankfully,he's still a good crooner.

Two words: Great idea.

Molly's Visit
---------------

It's kind of weird that after a year and a half this really is the first time Molly(or any villager other than Derwin)has been in my resident rep's house.

Selfie time...but if there's more than one person is it still considered to be a selfie?

A photogenic ducky.

I don't remember half of the stuff I put in my rooms but Molly liked it anyways.

Uh,well....Molly decided to take full advantage of my house's furnishings.

The Roost
--------------

Quillson was the first resident of Billington to visit The Roost.

Maybe a wee more than a bit.

I invited my old pal Hugh over for a cup.

Maybe there should be a bar on my island to get Resetti all calmed down.A coupe of double martinis would do him a lotta good.

Brewster is a pigeon of few words.

The Roost was officially open for business.And there was much rejoicing.

The Farm and Other Things
---------------------------------------

Aerial view of "the farm".

Geez,this was only a few days later...the grass is now the color of gingerbread.

I grew some large beefsteak tomatoes.

The cherry blossom island.

I was confronted by a scary masked tortoise.Sometimes you feel like a nut.

Every morning,ducky girl.

 

[Nunnafinga]

It is miraculous......I can make flour out of wheat simply by moving my hands quickly near a stove.Since when does flour need some pepper?

Who wants some flapjacks??I think I used a little too much baking powder because those flapjacks are massive.

Here's my field kitchen.I like to be closer to my ingredients(and I didn't have any space in my house!)

Molly came by for a visit.I have a dung beetle as a pet.His name is Marvin.

I found Molly cooking in her house.She has this amazing sink that somehow is able to make her skillet hot enough to cook with.

The HHP gang visited The Roost.I like how Niko has a junior sized coffee cup.

 

[Nunnafinga]

This gyroid looks like how I feel in the morning.

These gyroids welcome visitors to the plaza.

Ooops.....I forgot to redo the path leading to the museum.No wonder my feet always gets wet while trying to enter through the front.

Someone other than my res. rep is giving Derwin these ugly outfits.I suspect Mallary.Ah,well.....he seems to like 'em.

Ketchup is a bit camera shy sometimes.

Having a rest with the fake ducks.

 

[Nunnafinga]

A couple of my duckies spent a bit too much time at The Roost.

Gaston,le lapin jaune avec une moustache,popped in at The Roost.He's still the jolly old fellow I've always known.

I fixed my fountain entrance to the museum.No more wet feet.

I bought a scooter today!Now I just have to go all Quadrophenia and decorate the thing with 52 rear view mirrors,a ton of headlights,pennants and other assorted spangly things.

It's winter in Billington..........brrrrrrrr..........

 

[Nunnafinga]

I've made a few changes on Billington.This is Otto.He will be doing a few odd jobs around the island and provide some extra storage capacity.As you can see,he's rarin' to go.

The mistake of the lake.I've decided to turn the lake back into a river.I realize that it could possibly change the ecosystem of the upper parts of Billington but I assure you that no endangered species will be harmed.

Two big heads are better than one.

This is the "luxury car"??I thought it would be a lot bigger.I'm half expecting 37 clowns to come busting out of that thing.

Must be an Apple.

Happy birthday to off-island ducky Joey.

The Joey-Cam.

 

[princess.looking.for.frog]

This is such a cute island?! I love the ducks so much and I’m dying to get one on my island, my new leaf town has/had quite a few. Also Quillson my baby, I’m so happy he has such a nice home! Many people dislike him.

my town was planned to full of ostriches, but plans were changed (my brother resfusing to comply to my strict rules, but it’s okay) and now it’s mostly ostriches. I love towns with only one species! I think it is very cute. In love with your town!

Thanks!I started having single species towns in New Leaf just to see if I could actually get one together and I wound up with three of them: ducks,pigs and frogs.I think they're more fun than a regular town.

From the South Pole.

Hmmm....ever seen that movie,Little Shop of Horrors?

I miss the green grass so I laid out a bunch of fake green grass.I think I'll make a springtime area and just stay there until February 25th.

I like that the game has the villagers explaining to new player characters about how they came to live on the island.

Bonfire Of The Apple Gods

 

[Nunnafinga]

Ducky and Bill had an early morning tea party.I've always wondered why those villager donuts aren't completely covered with chocolate.I guess Nintendo doesn't want our villagers to get melty chocolate fingerprints all over our islands.........I wouldn't mind....

Tomater Island

I want his job.

There was an unusual combination of clouds over Bilington today.I like 'em.

Gasp!My favorite ducky girl is a counterfeiter!

Getting ready for Spring.

 

[your local goomy]

Maelle would be the one to counterfeit money, haha.

 

[Nunnafinga]

There were many dancing duckies in Billington during Festivale.

Oh,yeah.....I get really chuffed when my duckies wear the matching outfits I give them.

There was an uncomfortable moment when Mallary told Bill that she wanted to see other ducks.

It's Good Golly Miss Molly's birthday today.

Ah,spring....when a not-so-young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of trying to fix up his ducky island.

 

[Nunnafinga]

Today is Hawaiian shirt day on Billington.....so you know,if you want to,go ahead and wear a Hawaiian shirt...and jeans.

Find the Bill.He's in there somewhere.

There are some new facilities under construction on Billington.I'm still waiting on a few items but they're mostly done.

There's a new ducky on Billington....it's Weber,the musical ducky.Ooo....he has a pricey electric bass.Maybe he'll let me buy it from him.

I've updated my island's dream.It's a bit dreamier than it was before.

 

[Nunnafinga]

I finally unlocked Wardell's catalog and ordered these two winnowing machines for my makeshift flour mill.

Maybe it's just me but it seems like the villagers really don't like sitting with my player characters anymore.Scoot looks miserable.In New Leaf the villagers loved when the mayor would sit with them.What's the deal?

It's birthday time again for Ducky.This year the three duckies I talk to the most were on the guest list.

Eat this.................................cupcake.

Hey,thanks new guy.

Heh,I guess it's impolite to leave a villager's house without speaking to them......or maybe it's just confusing.

 

[Nunnafinga]

New guy Weber received his first gift of clothing,a college cardigan.The "N" is for "nerd".

Quillson stopped by for a visit.I have read that Quillson's name is a take on the Wilson brothers from 60's surf pop band The Beach Boys and that's why his house always has a surfboard and music related furniture(in New Leaf he had a DJ table thingy,a guitar amp and a fancy stereo.He has mostly the same items in New Horizons as well).Also,there's a lyric in The Beach Boys song Surfin' U.S.A. about someone with a "bushy,bushy blond hairdo" but no lyrics about droopy eyelids and dark green freckles.

I found Miss Molly enjoying a non-alcoholic apple julep.

♫ From the early, early mornin'
'Til the early, early night
When they caught Miss Molly
Rockin' at the house of blue light ♫

I think my duckies were practicing formation flying on the ground.

More Aerial Billington

Ducky's fame and notoriety extends far beyond the shores of Billington.
