Special Edition 4 pets have come to Dream of Mirror Online in North America, along with a wave of pet promotions! Lacking a sufficiently handsome Jade among them, however, I’ve (just barely) managed to keep myself from breaking the pupu bank. I was tempted, but not ensnared by the slashed price of the Vanity Pet Chest, which seems to have been in conjunction with the “Buy Vanity Pet Chest, Get Ornamental Pet Naming Tag” promotion. No adorable little boy to go with my big handsome man? No, thank you. By the way, I would have renamed him Shy Joey.
While I entertained the thought of having an ugly Doraemon for a few minutes, it was actually the “Mini Spender Promo” that almost got me. I don’t like the look of the Jester Costume (if only it looked like Harley Quinn’s), I don’t like the look of SE4 Jade’s beady eyes, and none of the vanity pets look as cute as my roly poly cactus. I needed an inventory upgrade, though, and I figured I might as well get something extra out of it. At the last second, I pulled back on my mouse as it approached the checkout button, told myself to wait for a better costume promotion, and to just sell all that damn junk in the bank. Okay, I didn’t really “pull back”, but news like that should come in a dramatic narrative!
Maewen: You’re calling not spending AP on anything news? Then what’s a headline? Spending a buck on a Pet Naming Tag?
Me: You really know how to spoil a story.
