Neil

This fellow will automatically appear in your game on Spring 9th of your first year, when he visits your farm to deliver a cow that Dunhill got for you. After that, he will move into the red-colored building next to Hanna's General Store. On Mondays through Thursdays he will set up an animal shop in the northwest corner of the village area, between 10:00 am and 6:00 pm.

Neil looks like he is an unfriendly person, but that's just due to his lack of social skills. Deep down, he just really wants some friends but his threatening appearance tends to keep people away. Neil has a great fondness for farm animals; in fact, he even likes all the wild animals too.

He also has an interest in music, but unfortunately he doesn't participate in the Fall season Music Festival.

» Friday, Saturday, or Sunday
» Any weather
» You are playing as the girl main character
» Neil has 5000 Friendship Points or more
» Neil is inside his house

A customer is visiting Neil's house, but he seems rather annoyed. Neil refuses to sell to him! The customer gets angry, exclaims that he'll never buy from Neil again, and then storms out. Neil tells you to leave him alone, as you have nothing to do with it. He finally breaks down and explains that the man use to be a customer of his, who came here to complain about a cow that Neil sold him. The man says the cow became sick after Neil sold it to him, and so he believes Neil did it on purpose. When Neil asked the man how he was caring for the cow, it turns out the man wasn't doing a very good job. That's when they started arguing.

Option 1: What about the sick cow?

Neil is surprised that you are concerned about the cow, and then suddenly remembers that he needs to give the cow some medicine! He runs out of his house to care for the sick cow.

When he returns, he doesn't expect you to still be waiting to hear about the cow. Neil tells you he gave the cow some medicine and the man some advice on how to care for cows. He thanks you for being here and asking about the cow. He was so angry that he might not have even thought to help the poor cow.

Result: +3000 FP
Option 2: You're not much of bad businessman

It has nothing to do with you! Neil demands you leave his house.

Result: -2000 FP

» Friday, Saturday, or Sunday
» Sunny weather
» You are playing as the girl main character
» Neil has a purple heart color or higher
» You have seen the black heart event
» The Cottage has been built and Rod has been unlocked
» Neil is inside his house

You walk into Neil's house and notice that Rod is there. He was just walking by with his dog and stopped by to visit, but he's forgotten something at home and so has to leave. Rod tells you that Neil is inside and then leaves.

Neil doesn't notice that you've arrived and starts talking to the dog, kindly assuring him that Rod is going to be right back. The dog notices that you're there and walks over to you. Neil is surprised to see you and asks how long you've been standing there. You didn't see him doing anything, did you?

Option 1: I just got here

Good. Neil is bothered that Rod left his dog with him, but he's decided to bring the dog back to Rod. Neil invites you to go with him.

Rod just found the item he was looking for and starts to leave for Neil's place when the two of you arrive with Rod's dog. Neil is annoyed and tells Rod that he can't do favors for him all day long. Rod is confused, because Neil apparently volunteered to look after his dog while he went home! Neil denies it, gives back the dog, and storms out of Rod's house.

Rod figures that Neil was embarrassed that you saw him playing with the dog. Neil is really a nice guy though! Rod hopes that you'll become friends with Neil.

Result: +3000 FP
Option 2: I saw you playing with the dog

Neil doesn't know what you saw, but it isn't what you think you saw! He calls you a "noisy busy-body" and gives you the cold shoulder. Rod comes back and notices the tension in the air. Neil tells him that it is nothing, and asks him to take his dog and leave.

Back at Rod's house, he inquires as to what happened. You explain what you saw Neil doing, and Rod figures that Neil didn't want to be seen acting that way. Neil is rather shy, although you can't tell just by looking at him, and Rod figures you probably should of pretended you didn't see anything.

Result: -2000 FP
