Chase (Harvest Moon: Animal Parade)

About
Chase is a young man who is not afraid to speak his mind. He can come off as rude at times. Chase lives in Flute Fields, and he works at Hayden's Brass Bar as a chef. Chase is really into cooking, so when he heard of the great chef Yolanda, he moved to Castanet to become her apprentice. However, he will not begin to work at the bar until the Red Bell has been rung. He attempts to teach Maya how to cook, but he just explains to the player that she is hopeless. After this cutscene, he will try the player's cooking and critique it when he is working at the bar.

Marriage
To marry Chase, the player must have a heart level of at least nine with him, see all four of his heart events, and receive his love letter. This can be accomplished by talking to Chase every day and by giving him gifts he likes. Once a marriage candidate reaches nine hearts and the player's house has been upgraded to the second level extension, Mira will visit the player's farm in the morning to say that she saw a bluebird fly over Garmon Mountain. The player must visit the top of the mountain between 17:00 and 19:00 to receive the Blue Feather. The player may then propose to Chase with the feather.

After marrying Chase, the player is given a Honeymoon Ticket. Chase will now make the player a lunch every morning, and is available to help out with chores around the farm and go for walks with the player. The player may also view the Summer Festival fireworks and the New Year's Eve countdown with Chase.

Schedule
Before he is married, Chase lives in his house in Flute Fields. He rarely ventures out of his home, except to go to work at the Brass Bar. Even if the weather is bad, or the bar is closed, Chase goes to the bar every night. During festivals and the Circus, Chase is unavailable unless the player asks him to go as a date.

If the player marries Chase, he will move in with the player. He still remains home most of the day, leaving only to look around the land and go to the bar. As before, he goes to work at the Brass Bar every evening, even if the weather is terrible. However, Chase's job does not bring the player any income.

If Chase marries Maya, she will move into his house with him. His schedule stays the same as it was when he was single. He will stay home all day, and leave only to go to work at the Brass Bar every evening.
