Nick Mosier<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>New revelations about the relationship between <strong>C.J. and Flick<\/strong> have become a hot topic among Animal Crossing fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>*The first half of this article is a summary of their relationship up to the new Ver2.0 update for <strong><em>Animal Crossing: New Horizons<\/em><\/strong>. The second half enters spoiler territory for the update and the new paid DLC.<br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The bug and fish loving pair<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Flick is a young male chameleon who\u2019s love for the beauty of bugs knows no bounds. He\u2019s an artistic type who will not only pay for your insects, but also make models of them. C.J.is a cheery young male beaver that enjoys traveling from island to island taking selfies and catching fish. It\u2019s also possible to give him a fish to get a model of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But C.J. doesn\u2019t make the models himself. He leaves that to none other than Flick. When it comes to C.J. and Flick\u2019s relationship, C.J. says their families have been friends for a long time and that they are currently roommates. From this, we can gather that C.J. recognizes Flick\u2019s model-making skills and that they are on good terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are various interpretations about the relationship between the two. One interesting difference is how they are perceived in Japan and internationally. In the Japanese version, when explaining about the model making process, C.J. says he asks his artist \u201cfriend\u201d to make the models, referring to Flick as a friend. However, in the English version he uses \u201cmy partner.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&quot;my partner&quot; just say &#39;husband&#39; C.J. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AnimalCrossing?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#AnimalCrossing<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ACNH?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#ACNH<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NintendoSwitch?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NintendoSwitch<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/1iV40xKLEL\">pic.twitter.com\/1iV40xKLEL<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Connor Hatch (@connorhatch) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/connorhatch\/status\/1247150861219852289?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 6, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Partner is a word that can mean multiple things. It could be used to mean something like fellow worker or collaborator but is also commonly used to refer to a lover or spouse. For this reason, there are players that think they\u2019re just friends and players that think they are in a romantic relationship. It\u2019s a unique situation where multiple interpretations were born from the wording across different regions for the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the official guidebook outside of Japan refers to them as \u201cbusiness partners.\u201d The word choice here doesn\u2019t make them sound all that close and muddies the water even more as to how close they are and what their relationship is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And it\u2019s with this in mind that we jump into the new Ver2.0 free update and <em>Happy Home Paradise<\/em> DLC that launched this November to learn even more about their relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[The following contains spoilers for the free Ver2.0 update and <em>Happy Home Paradise DLC<\/em>.]<\/strong><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The new content reminds us just how close they are<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>First, let\u2019s talk about the paid <em>Happy Home Paradise<\/em> DLC. In the DLC, players can invite island residents to a resort to build them their ideal vacation home. It\u2019s also possible to make these homes for specific characters by using amiibo. As for C.J. and Flick, they are available to be called via their cards in the Animal Crossing Series 5 Amiibo Cards set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s interesting about calling them to the resort is that if you call one, the other will automatically come along and be designated as their roommate. Even if you only have one of their amiibo cards, the result will be the same. And how persistent they are about bringing the other one along shows just how close they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u5225\u8358\u63d0\u6848\u3057\u305f\u3089\u3001\u30b7\u30a7\u30a2\u52e7\u3081\u306a\u304f\u3066\u3082\u30ec\u30c3\u30af\u30b9\u3082\u4e00\u7dd2\u306a\u306e\u826f\u304d\u266a<br> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E3%81%A9%E3%81%86%E3%81%B6%E3%81%A4%E3%81%AE%E6%A3%AE?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u3069\u3046\u3076\u3064\u306e\u68ee<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AnimalCrossing?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#AnimalCrossing<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ACNH?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#ACNH<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NintendoSwitch?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NintendoSwitch<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/FTPORCxQ7o\">pic.twitter.com\/FTPORCxQ7o<\/a><\/p>&mdash; \ua9c1\ud802\udf39\u6843\u552f\ud802\udf39\ua9c2 (@TOY_amrnme) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TOY_amrnme\/status\/1457163118358917124?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 7, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><figcaption><font size=\"2\"><strong>Tweet Translation:<br><\/strong>When offering to make his vacation home, even if you don\u2019t recommend they share, Flick will join too which is sweet. <\/font><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">If you build a vacation home for Flick he automatically brings CJ along with him I\u2019m so \ud83e\udd7a <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AnimalCrossingNewHorizions?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#AnimalCrossingNewHorizions<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/HappyHomeParadise?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#HappyHomeParadise<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/VYYoOoQ6WR\">pic.twitter.com\/VYYoOoQ6WR<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Jack(daw) Shuck (@alcomol) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/alcomol\/status\/1457499680795992070?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 8, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We also get a chance to learn more about C.J. and Flick at The Roost, which is a caf\u00e9 in the museum where villagers go to get coffee and chat about what\u2019s going on in their lives in more detail.

But it also looks like they enjoy stopping by for a coffee together. There\u2019s also a conversation where they talk about their schedules not aligning which means they can\u2019t have coffee together at home very often, and another where we find out that Flick made C.J.\u2019s fishing lure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u55ab\u8336\u306b\u30ec\u30c3\u30af\u30b9\u3092\u547c\u3093\u3060\u3089\u30b8\u30e3\u30b9\u30c6\u30a3\u30f3\u3082\u6765\u305f\uff01<br>\u30ec\u30c3\u30af\u30b9\u304b\u3089\u30d5\u30fc\u30bf\u3078\u306e\u4e0d\u6e80\uff08\u7b11\uff09<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E3%81%82%E3%81%A4%E3%81%BE%E3%82%8C%E3%81%A9%E3%81%86%E3%81%B6%E3%81%A4%E3%81%AE%E6%A3%AE?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u3042\u3064\u307e\u308c\u3069\u3046\u3076\u3064\u306e\u68ee<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E3%81%82%E3%81%A4%E6%A3%AE?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u3042\u3064\u68ee<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E3%81%82%E3%81%A4%E6%A3%AE%E5%86%99%E7%9C%9F%E9%83%A8?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u3042\u3064\u68ee\u5199\u771f\u90e8<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/kERqm0rRKo\">pic.twitter.com\/kERqm0rRKo<\/a><\/p>&mdash; \u51ac\u91ce\u6708\u5b50 (@Fuyuno_Tsukiko) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Fuyuno_Tsukiko\/status\/1456480862187372555?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 5, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><figcaption><font size=\"2\"><strong>Tweet Translation:<br><\/strong>If you call Flick, C.J. comes too!

C.J.\u2019s father is Chip, a beaver that hosted the fishing contests in past titles. If you call Chip to the caf\u00e9, C.J. will come too, and players can listen to a private conversation between the father and son. It\u2019s charming to see Chip happy that his son is doing well after moving out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this scene, C.J. mentions how he and Flick have a strong visual interest in fish and bugs unlike their parent\u2019s generation who are more concerned about taste, which Flick doesn\u2019t approve of. C.J. then ponders that even within a family, values can vary between individuals, which is rather mature from the normally lighthearted C.J.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u3081\u3061\u3083\u3081\u3061\u3083\u53cb\u9054\u601d\u3044\u3067\u5668\u304c\u5927\u304d\u3044\u306e\u306d\u30b8\u30e3\u30b9\u30c6\u30a3\u30f3\u304f\u3093\uff65\uff65\uff65<br> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E3%81%A9%E3%81%86%E3%81%B6%E3%81%A4%E3%81%AE%E6%A3%AE?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u3069\u3046\u3076\u3064\u306e\u68ee<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AnimalCrossing?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#AnimalCrossing<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/JaMxEcHH9M\">pic.twitter.com\/JaMxEcHH9M<\/a><\/p>&mdash; \u6731\u91cc\/shuri (@ebiebieshrimp) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ebiebieshrimp\/status\/1457509887898832896?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 8, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><figcaption><font size=\"2\"><strong>Tweet Translation:<br><\/strong>C.J. is very open-minded and mature<\/font><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Then there\u2019s Flick\u2019s father Nat. Nat is a character from past titles that hosted the bug catching contests. Like Chip, you can meet him for the first time in a long time by using his amiibo card. And like C.J. and Chip, if you call Nat, his son will\u2026 not be joining him, contrary to what you might expect. Instead, his old friend Chip comes along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nat is a mild-mannered character like Chip and is concerned about his son. However, it sounds like there\u2019s some trouble between them. While the father and son both like bugs, there\u2019s a divergence in the way they think about them. When considering what C.J. said earlier and Flick stating that bugs aren\u2019t food, Nat and Flick seem to have differing opinions on whether bugs are to be eaten or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this reason, Nat isn\u2019t really able to communicate with his son and learns about how he\u2019s doing through Chip. In other words, C.J. keeps his own father updated on how Flick is doing. C.J. acting as a sort of go-between for Nat and Flick adds yet another sad, but deeper layer to their relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u30ec\u30c3\u30af\u30b9\u306f\u30ab\u30e1\u30e4\u30de\u3055\u3093\u306e\u606f\u5b50\u306a\u306e\u304b\uff01\uff01<br>\u3058\u3083\u3042\u30b8\u30e3\u30b9\u30c6\u30a3\u30f3\u306f\u30a6\u30aa\u30de\u30b5\u3055\u3093\u306e\uff01\uff1f<br><br>\u3078\u3048\u3048\u30fc\uff01\uff08\u4eca\u66f4<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E3%81%82%E3%81%A4%E6%A3%AE?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u3042\u3064\u68ee<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E3%81%82%E3%81%A4%E3%81%BE%E3%82%8C%E3%81%A9%E3%81%86%E3%81%B6%E3%81%A4%E6%A3%AE?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u3042\u3064\u307e\u308c\u3069\u3046\u3076\u3064\u68ee<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/UH4a0OeYS8\">pic.twitter.com\/UH4a0OeYS8<\/a><\/p>&mdash; \u306f\u306a\u307e\u308b (@hanamaru_tweet) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hanamaru_tweet\/status\/1456928661727182848?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 6, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><figcaption><font size=\"2\"><strong>Tweet Translation:<br><\/strong>Flick is Nat\u2019s son?!
