GARDENVIEW CENTER

You were one of the Toons in Gardenview, walking around the center area of the entire place, Toons such as Shelly or Pebble going around, but as you continued walking, you noticed someone...

Astro, laying next to the tree in the center of Gardenview, seemingly asleep, or, just resting his eyes, who knows...

Perhaps you could talk to him? He seems like the best option. Shelly would be too shocked at you even realizing she existed for you to have a conversation with her, and Pebble is a dog.
