I decided to try making the rest of the outfits, so here's Applejack's so far.
I don't think if I can submit this technically since I'm on disability, so I just did this for fun :3
My first shiny pokemon! She's adorable and green @u@
Hopefully, I'll have a few more Higurashi outfits tomorrow, was planning to do more tonight and I noticed the time.
Day 30: Tell the tale of how exactly you found yourself getting into the HM series. Make it long and detailed! :D
Well, I was first introduced to it when I was probably around 8 years old. I went to FuncoLand (a couple of years before it became Gamestop) with my mom and brother to sell off several NES games.
While we were waiting, my brother and I were browsing the games and I remember him showing me the cover for Harvest Moon (but I guess it was either an older print or a European copy?) and he asks me what genre I thought the game was and since I wasn’t used to simulators at the time, I said horror because of the night sky and silhouettes, which pleased him and he flipped over the box and showed me that it was a farming sim (I hadn’t heard the term “Harvest Moon” before, so what can you do?) I was intrigued, but we didn’t get to buy it, which bummed both of us.
Some time later, my brother had discovered emulators and was playing Harvest Moon, I ended up watching him from time to time and it just caught my interest, especially when he hit festivals. I remember him even asking me when I thought he should propose to Maria (we agreed the Starry Night Festival, but discovered you can’t do that lol).
Years later, I was probably a freshman in high school, my brother brought me along to go to Gamestop (different store though) and I noticed mfomt and I was going to buy it, but my brother was told that it wasn’t good by his friends and told me to put it back (I was naive and did), but it bugged me. So I ended up getting a rom of it and played it like crazy over the weekend and scolded him for making me put it back.
I was going to buy it the very next week, but it was already gone... (Honestly, not for story effect, anything with anime artwork was usually sold by the time you visited the store again).
I did eventually get it, but I had to wait a few years before it was in the wild again (I was discouraged to use ebay at the time), it was around the same time DS Cute came out (which I pre-ordered and got my black kitty! Though the house fire ate the doll... But the cartridge survived!)
