Chapter 3: Heartwarming Memories

Narrated by no one.

Narrator: Nikki's dad carefully looked back at the photos she had taken. Then he smiled at her.

Nikki's Dad: You've done a great job, Nikki!

Nikki: Have I learned how to use the camera, Dad?

Nikki's Dad: You've learned well, Nikki. But here's what I really want to tell you: being a good photographer takes more than skill.

Narrator: In photography, it is most important that you discover beauty with your heart.

Nikki's Dad: The lens is your eye, but what it shows is your heart.

Nikki's Dad: Only when you make discoveries with your heart, can you take good photos.

Narrator: Nikki only appeared to understand. She was so young, she couldn't understand the meaning of what her dad had said.

Narrator: However, she decided to try again.

Narrator: Use your heart. Use your heart. Nikki focused on that one phrase.

Narrator: She didn't rush to snap a picture. She observed her surroundings and pondered what "discovering with her heart" could mean.

Narrator: A cute girl not far away caught Nikki's attention. She was squatting on the ground and studying something intently.

Narrator: Nikki walked over out of curiosity and saw that the girl was watching ants on the ground.

Narrator: The girl raised her head to flash Nikki a bright smile when she saw her approach. Her eyes flickered playfully.

???: Are you here to make friends with the ants, too?

Narrator: Nikki tried to answer, but she was starting to wake up...

Nikki: I just had a wonderful dream about my childhood home, [Your Name]. In the dream, my dad took me to town to take pictures.

Choose either "Nikki's homesick, right?" or "Is the town memorable for you?"

If "homesick," ...

Nikki: Well, it's a good thing you and Momo came with me.

If "memorable," ...

Nikki: Yeah, that place was filled with memories.

--

Nikki: It's been a long time. We've visited many places and seen a lot of things together since I've been here last.

Nikki: But this small town means a lot to me.

Choose "Special meaning?"

Nikki: Not only did I study photography with my dad there, but that was where I first met Pada. I had no idea we'd grow so close.

Nikki: If I had a chance, I would go back... Wait, I got it!

Narrator: Nikki walked to the table, opened her sketchbook, and began to sketch.

Narrator: The pattern on the costume looked just how she remembered the small town.

Bluey, season 2 episode 9, Sleepytime

It’s my favorite episode now.

I watched it today for the first time this morning and it uses my favorite song. I will never forget this feeling. I wish I can re-experience this feeling again.

My mind was blown when I heard the score. I wish everyone knew this feeling. The story and the song together it’s just healing my soul. I think I’m gonna go cry now

[good-to-drive]

I just remembered that I've seen all of Modern Family and it was honestly kind of a shock. I can remember thinking the writing was excellent but I honestly cannot remember a single thing about that show. Not a single plot or character has stuck in my mind in a meaningful way. I remember that they were well-crafted and entertaining, I do not remember them. That show is just a white vacancy in my brain with "tightly written, clever" stamped on top.

[soracities]

what’s been the best meal you’ve had? could be of all time or just as of lately! (i made some delightful soup the other day and i’m still thinking about her)

oh i think the lasagna i had for my birthday a few months ago was truly something else........felt like i swallowed a warm log fire. felt nurtured & consoled by her for DAYS afterwards.....💗

Nikki: Heartwarming Flame

Designer's Reflection: Heartwarming Flame

Obtained: 2023 birthday event

Rarity: SSR

Attribute: Green/Fresh

Awakened Suit: Heartwarming Song

Story - transcripts from Designer's Reflection

Chapter 1 - Birthday Fire

Chapter 2 - Firework Memories

Chapter 3 - Winter Warmth

Chapter 4 - Firework Wishes

Story - summarized

At the birthday party, Nikki is enjoying everyone's company, even if it is a bit chaotic. Finally, the fireworks start. They bloom in the sky, spelling out Nikki's name. It is then she remembers something from years back.

When she was 9, her family took her to an amusement park for her birthday, and they waited until night to watch the fireworks. Before then, Nikki's sister, Yoyo, gave her a camera to use to take photos.

But when the fireworks started, Nikki was so immersed that she forgot to take pictures. And it was too late by the time she remembered.

Yoyo cheered her up with a fairy girl's wand. The sparkles looked exactly like fireworks.

Next day, the mom made Nikki a birthday cake - but Nikki was afraid of losing it forever, like the fireworks. Her mom assured her that if you remember things and hold onto those memories forever, then nothing will ever be lost.

Nikki returned to the present moment and makes a wish as the last of the fireworks go off.

Connections

-Nikki also went to an amusement park in Dream Bloom. It was for the first anniversary of the game.

-Fireworks play a big role in Marina's Reflection for Exploding Fireworks. She saw them for the first time in one of the Designer's Mirrors and wanted to see them in person.

-When Nikki couldn't get the camera to work, she gave it to her father. The two of them went on a photography trip in Sweet Dream, where he showed her how to take good photos.

Fun Facts

-So far, each of Nikki's birthday designs have been a different attribute: first year was Pink/Sweet, second year was Purple/Sexy, and this time it's Green/Fresh.

-One of the cake ingredients was longan. Longan is a tropical fruit that's in the same family as lychee, rambutan, and soapberry.

“Thank you for staying alive. Your loved ones around you would be relieved and be grateful that you are still with them. So you should live your life today because it’s a great day. It will rain tomorrow. Then as you wait until the rain stops, live another day. If you keep this up, there might come a day when life doesn’t seem so miserable.” – Ryu Sun Jae
