Overview[edit]
The second Harvest Goers after the first one failed and was lost in the VGF crash. It was set in the semi-future. It too eventually died away.
Plot Summary[edit]
Luigi of the Pipes has been covering farmers as his article for the Nightly Fungus newspaper. But his editor, Eddy T., is unimpressed and sends him to Kansas in order to live as a farmer for a while. Luigi manages to convince a reluctant Rebe to accompany him. They eventually arrive and set up a farm. Luigi also befriends a wise neighbor, Ditto McCloaker.
Luigi is acquainted with all the strange farm people- such as Flutter, who insists that people stay away from his private area known as THE FENCE; Yoshiman, who works in sabotaging farms with the aid of his multiple personalities; and Lilac Blue, the cousin of Sapphire Blue. Luigi also learns of a government conspiracy, run by Masamune and Murasame of the Neo Birdocrat Party, which has driven the farmers to poverty.
However, Ditto and Sapphire fight back against the government conspiracy with the aid of Tam Nook. Vorpal also appears at one point to help them in battle. Being retired, Vorpal refuses to reform the Mega Mega Extreme Doki Doki Panik Party, but he does tell Ditto and Sapphire that they could overthrow the Neo Birdocrats themselves as farmers. That was the last post, and though it is considered unfinished, the post makes as good an ending as any.
Quotes[edit]
Luigi: I see...
Flutter: And don't plant your crops more than 3 feet underground.
Luigi: Why?
Flutter: That's my property, and I will steal the plant.
Rebe: What's this?
Luigi: Country hospitality. Stay away from the guy across the street. He called me a toothpick.
Secretary: How well did it go, sir?
Flutter: Quite well actually.
Secretary: Would you like to spy on someone?
Flutter: Anything to end this unstructured conversation.
Ditto: The soil's fine around here. Now lemme tell you what the REAL problem is... *beckons Luigi closer to the fence
and whispers* It's the government!
Luigi: NO!
Ditto: *smashes Luigi's face against the fence* Keep your voice down, they'll hear you!
Yoshiman: Here's your mission: Sabatoge. Take this bucket of. . . Sprites. You know what to do.
Fuzzball: Uh. . .
Yoshiman: *sigh* Covert Operation Foxtrot Charlie Omega.
Fuzzball: That was too easy.
Mune: In fact, Mr... Harree Pitts, you should've recognized me by now. We met in Cuba.
Luigi: Masa?
Mune: Don't be stupid! I'm Mune!
Luigi: Darn. Don't ever call me Harripittis again.
