'''Flick''' is a character in the {{SER}} who debuted in {{NH}}. He is the son of [[Nat]], and replaces him as the host of the [[Bug-Off]], a bug-catching event held every three weeks during the [[summer]]. He also appears as a regular visitor to the island. Unlike Nat, who views bugs as food, Flick views them as his artistic muse, displaying an obsession with their perceived beauty on both a physical and metaphysical level. This has led to disagreements between the two about the treatment of insects.

Flick and [[C.J.]] appear to work together, with C.J. referring to him as his partner, mentioning that they live together, and implying he commissions him to create the fish models for the player.

==Appearances==

In {{NH}}, Flick appears on random weekdays after the [[Resident Services]] have been upgraded to a building. Flick offers to buy [[bugs]] from the player at a price 1.5x higher than [[Nook's Cranny]] price. He leaves at 5 AM the following day. Once per visit, the player can commission him to make a model of a bug, which requires giving Flick three specimen of the same bug. He will mail the model the following day.

Unlike C.J., whose fish models are mostly uniform in size barring a few particularly lengthy fish (e.g. the [[Arapaima]] and [[Oarfish]]), Flick will build exceptionally large models for the [[Queen Alexandra's Birdwing]], [[Banded Dragonfly]], [[Goliath Beetle]], [[Horned Hercules]], [[Atlas Moth]], and [[Giraffe Stag]], each given the "Grand" prefix in their item names. Additionally, Flick will provide special dialogue when asked to craft models of these bugs, giving flowery and praise-filled descriptions of them before vowing to make a masterpiece out of their models.

Flick can also visit [[The Roost]] if his [[amiibo]] card is scanned at the amiibo phone; he brings C.J. as a guest and vice versa. If the player scans his amiibo card in {{HHP|short}}, he will also bring along C.J. to his vacation home.

==Quotes==
===In {{NH|short|nolink}}===
Upon interacting with Flick, he will say something relating to bugs before apologizing for thinking out loud. This dialogue will change every time the player interacts with him.
* ''"Am I truly listening to the needs of the <bug> with every ear I possess?"''
* ''"If a <bug> were to manifest before me, how would I react? Laughter? Weeping?"''
* ''"If you find yourself where there are no bugs...you have to visualize and manifest them yourself!<br>Close your eyes. Reach with your mind. Feel the bugs. Feel them crawling all over your skin. Dissolve."'' <!-- 4/30/20: There is no period after the ellipse in-game. -->
* ''"It doesn't matter how much I treasure the bugs. They'll never notice what I do for them..."''
* ''"It is sheer hubris to think that we could ever learn everything about bugs.<br>Bugs are an experience. They are a conversation...one between the viewer and the universe."'' <!-- 4/30/20: There is no period after the ellipse in-game. -->
* ''"Larva, pupa, adulthood, final transcendence... They become more exalted with every metamorphosis!"''
* ''"They reflect this sullied world, yet retain their own beauty... I am bewitched by those compound eyes."''
* ''"My world was once gray and dull. Then they brought their riotous jointed rainbows of wonder!"''
* ''"When the universe contemplates beauty, it imagines the silhouette of the <bug>."''
* ''"Will this world meet its reckoning, beheld only by the lonely eyes of the <bug>?"''
* ''"I divide myself into the three sacred segments. I am the head, thorax and abdomen of the universe."''

During a Bug-Off, Flick's dialogue has a greater amount of new-age style spirituality:
* ''"Hey, how was it? Did you make progress on your personal journey towards True Infestation?"''
* ''"What - really?! You don't need them as spiritual guides? I mean - let me just add it up for you."''
* ''"Alright, get ready to transcend...'''
* ''"Once you save up 10 points, you can redeem them for bug-blessed relics I've obtained. Good luck!"''
* ''"The epic tale of my pilgrimage to obtain these relics should be written on a scroll or something!"''
* ''"How did you enjoy this Bug-Off, our regular celebration of bugs? Were you spiritually enriched?"''
