Proposed connections/possible stuff.  Let me know if anyone has other ideas.<br/><br/>@Lady Lunarius: Might've known Annie when they were growing up?  Can't be that many kids around the Valley, right?  Since Annie has moved back, has probably had to stitch up a wound or two.  Does Angelica do anything with animals, too?  Offer second opinions or write scripts?<br/><br/>@Haloriel: Does Daire know anything about slimes!?   Annie may have sought out their knowledge concerning one or two variants.  She probably also gets a pretty temporary henna design on her hand and arm during festivals.<br/><br/>@Flower:  Not sure Annie knows Fred that well.  Probably a new acquaintance/friendship.  Might be able to lend out a horse/ox to help pull/carry all the ore/gems Fred mines.  She also might be trying to breed a slime for Fred, since she likes "slimy things?"  Or maybe some type of slime that would help her mine?<br/><br/>@Wistful Dream:  Annie probably stops by on occasion to look at all the pretty wedding dresses and decorations and visits with Renisha.<br/><br/>@SilverPaw: Think Alexis and Annie could've been a couple of tomboys getting into mischief together when they were younger - or last week?  Get together at the saloon every now and then to keep the men on their toes, and kick up a ruckus?<br/><br/>@Praxis: Happy to talk to the man about whatever he might want to talk about.  Maybe he needed a horse or ox to help plow a field cuz his tractor wasn't working?   Or maybe she buys some supplies from him - apples, carrots, feed, etc.?<br/><br/>@Rustic:  Probably knew him before he moved away.  Maybe they've caught up a bit.  Annie bought some supplies from him?  Sees him watching the sun set while she's out riding?<br/><br/>@Crash:  Same age as Annie. Both grew up in Stardew.   Thinking these two probably had some grand adventures together.  Annie definitely needed Cal's help to get her little fixer-upper to the state it is in now.  Always happy to chat, visit, or share a pint.<br/><br/>@MrAlanNH: Annie would be happy to go exploring or hiking with Quoi.  Can always use help on the ranch, and they could talk about animal care.  Maybe they bonded while Quoi worked a stint at the ranch?  Maybe Annie taught them how to ride?<br/><br/>@TheFluffyOne:  Annie tends to buy a bouquet of fresh flowers from Brianna on a weekly basis.  Visits and is friendly, as time allows.  Invites Brianna out to the saloon, or riding.
