(While, theoretically, there could be an object that is both 'kiki' and 'bouba', the labeler is supposed to label your account with one or the other, exclusively. Getting both is like owning the theoretical DND-inspired labels for "Lawful Good" and "Chaotic Evil" simultaneously.)

"six Mending Books in ~83 hours"
Hahahahaha cute, try FOUR IN TWELVE!!
By adding a fish and upgrading to Lure 3, we've basically MORE THAN QUADRUPLED the # of Mending books (~1 every 13.8 hours => 1 every 3 hours).
I love cheesing this game to bypass the intentionally grindy parts lol
