Greeting Jace!
This is going to sound really sappy, but I believe the best thing I’ve found are the friends I’ve made. (ヾ;￣▽￣)ヾ Just last week Tap and I caught the Star Phantom Thief who had stolen an ancient necklace from the grand museum! ٩(๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)و I’m not sure I would’ve been able to bring that dastardly criminal to justice had my friend now been there to support me!

Additionally, I’ve been able to help way more people than I ever did alive. I helped Perry find a lost meowl who had wandered off not too long ago, (≚ᄌ≚)ƶƵ and just yesterday I found a lost shipment for Mimi! It makes me feel like a real detective, like I’m actually doing some good. ♡(.◜ω◝.)♡

I’m not going to lie, I do miss some things… (｡•́︿•̀｡) Like traveling around with my mom and seeing all types of people and places… But it’s okay cause being a chikapi isn’t so bad! Like I said, I get to help people and I’ve made really good friends. Even if I don’t get to travel much anymore, I still get to meet all manner of people! I remember last month Tap showed me this cafe in the marketplace that served some of the best coffee I’ve ever had, and sold these cute cat-shaped macarons. ⅽ[ː̠̈ː̠̈ː̠̈] ͌ (*^◇^)_旦

(The cafe’s called [ooc I can’t think of a name], I really recommend taking a visit!)

Adventuring is good fun, though it makes me really nervous. (っ- ‸ – ς) Heavily forested areas always put me on edge especially. Swapping stories is fun though, like when I found that old house during your summer camp! I found a bunch of antique stuff, it was really peculiar how… Well I’m not sure how to describe it, untouched? (,,꒪꒫꒪,,) It was really peculiar how untouched everything felt, like I was stumbling into a place that hadn’t seen human or chikapi steps in a long, long time. I’d like to check it out again sometime but I can’t forget the unsettling feeling I got from the experience. ヾ( •́д•̀ ; )ﾉ

Possibly cursed old house aside, this year has been really fun! The summer celebrations were my favorite, helped me get my mind off of that house. Tap helped me make a last-minute lantern at the bonfire since I had been a bit under the weather from the pie eating contest. Tap is really nice, fate was kind in letting me meet them! °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖° I help them out with their animal stuff, like next week they want to try and get a ruggle and asked me to help. All I have to do is be on standby with some medical supplies since Tap was worried about getting hurt and I’m worried about it too. I hope everything goes okay. (;´・`)>
