I am trying to give one of my more recent villagers, Caroline, gifts so that she befriends me enough to give me the last reaction I need (daydreaming). How/when will I know I'm on the right track? There's definitely a cutoff point where the villager is now able to randomly ping you, and it's usually marked by a change in dialogue... To those of you who have befriended your normals, what is the change?
