[@gund8837]

In animal crossing happy home designer, K.K. slider says: " You ever seen my music in a store? Yeah, in the past, I was against selling it. So why is it available now? All of the proceeds go toward the kids. It's always about the kids. Which kids? All of the kids, man. All of 'em." And K.K. also says: "Folks ask me sometimes how much I make as a musicain, as if that's the important part. I make as much as anyone else in town. I do the things like selling fish, bugs, and fossils. And yet everyone expects my income tot be different because I play music. It's strange." So he was never a starving artist.

[@jasshadow2359]

Actually, K.K. still gives his music for free when you ask him the first time to play music for you on saturday evenings. Timmy and Tommy sell K.K.'s music in their catalog, you can also only get stuff in the catalog once you've already bought it (or in this case K.K. gave it to you). He might even have another job that he does when he's not performing or writing songs.

Just had a suggestion for an acnl theory! “Who is driving the train”. Sure it’s just a silly one but it’s kind of interesting as Porter is at the ticket gate, could it be the villager who basically is his twin(can’t remember the name). Or, could it be Rover, travelling around to different towns as we all know he is such an adventurer! I hope you cover this as I think it’s quite a fun theory to think about 💕
