- Miss you!
Dear Mario and Koops,
I hope you two are doing OK. I have to admit, with Koops gone, I haven't been doing very well.
I get lonely, and I go into Koops's house, and I smell that Koops smell. I guess it's your cologne or whatever, but it makes me so sad...
I'd gotten used to your smell, Koops...Oh! And the thing is, your dad, Koopley, has his own smell, and it's...weird. I think maybe it's the smell of Hooktail's gut. That's...disgusting. (GameCube)
Lately, the place is starting to smell more like your dad, Koopley. He has his own smell, and it’s...weird. I think maybe it’s the smell of Hooktail’s gut. It’s...disgusting. (Switch)
Now I grossed myself out. Oh, and since he's gonna be my dad, too, someday, I'd better get used to that smell, huh? ...Oh! What am I writing? I'm so embarrassed...but I'm sending this anyway! Hee hee hee!
Love, Koopie Koo
