Personality
As a normal villager, she will be concerned with cleanliness in her home. She comes across as polite and helpful, usually giving the player useful tips in-game, such as the camera options. She will not have any precise hobbies and will tend to be interested in anything, though furniture and clothing are the usual interests. She will enjoy being with jock, lazy, peppy, or other normal villagers as they appear to be nicer and friendlier. She will tend to dislike being with cranky and snooty villagers as they enjoy insulting other villagers. Like all normal villagers, she will easily become upset, but will forget ever having the conversation. As a normal villager, she also becomes upset when the player bothers her (hit her with a net, being pushed, hit her with a toy hammer, and scaring her with a megaphone). She may ask the player from time to time to find an item of clothing or furniture and will ask kindly and wait patiently until the item arrives. However, if she does not get the item, she will not feel discouraged or put off and will dismiss the item as unwanted. Bettina is obsessed with cooking and will ask to go to the player's house frequently. She sometimes asks the player to catch some fish for her, but she usually asks for easy fish.
