'''Flick''' is a [[chameleon]] in the {{SER}} who debuted in {{NH}}. His name may be derived from "lick," referring to the long tongue of a chameleon. He is the son of [[Nat]], and replaces him as the host of the [[Bug-Off]], a [[bugs|bug]]-catching [[events|event]] held every three weeks during the [[summer]]. He also appears as a regular visitor to the [[town|island]].

Flick and [[C.J.]] appear to work together, with C.J. referring to him as his partner, mentioning that they live together, and implying he commissions him to create the fish models for the player.

==Characteristics==
===Appearance===
Unlike his father Nat, Flick is a red chameleon with three small/tiny yellow horns (two on his forehead and one on his nose), four spikes on the back of his head, small/short reddish-brown eyebrows, light-red circle spots on the center of his head, and a rolled-up tail with orangish-red and reddish-purple stripes. His big round half-closed eyes have magenta eyelids, white scleras, purple irises, and big dark-purple pupils.

===Personality===
Like his father Nat, Flick loves hosting the Bug-Off, but unlike Nat, who views bugs as food, he views them as his artistic muse, displaying an obsession with their perceived beauty on both a physical and metaphysical level. This has led to disagreements between the two about the treatment of insects.

==Appearances==
===In {{NH|short|nolink}}===
[[File:NH Flick Options.jpg|thumb|left|300px|Flick speaking to the player in {{NH|short|nolink}}.]]
In {{NH}}, Flick appears on random weekdays after the [[Resident Services]] have been upgraded to a building. Flick offers to buy bugs from the player at a price 1.5x higher than [[Nook's Cranny]] price. He leaves at 5 AM the following day. Once per visit, the player can commission him to make a model of a bug, which requires giving Flick three specimen of the same bug. He will [[letter|mail]] the model the following day.

Unlike C.J., whose fish models are mostly uniform in size barring a few particularly lengthy fish (e.g. the [[Arapaima]] and [[Oarfish]]), Flick will build exceptionally large models for the [[Queen Alexandra's Birdwing]], [[Banded Dragonfly]], [[Goliath Beetle]], [[Horned Hercules]], [[Atlas Moth]], and [[Giraffe Stag]], each given the "Grand" prefix in their item names. Additionally, Flick will provide special dialogue when asked to craft models of these bugs, giving flowery and praise-filled descriptions of them before vowing to make a masterpiece out of their models.

Flick can also visit [[The Roost]] if his [[amiibo]] card is scanned at the amiibo phone; he brings C.J. as a guest and vice versa. If the player scans his amiibo card in {{HHP|short}}, he will also bring along C.J. to his vacation home.

===In {{PC|short|nolink}}===
Flick was added to {{PC}} in November 2020. He hosts the [[Flick's Segmented Soulmates]] event, where he tasks the player with catching bugs to receive bug-themed prizes, such as the {{I|butterfly-exhibit fountain|PC}}.

==Quotes==
===In {{NH|short|nolink}}===
Upon interacting with Flick, he will say something relating to bugs before apologizing for thinking out loud. This dialogue will change every time the player interacts with him.
*''"Am I truly listening to the needs of the <bug> with every ear I possess?"''
*''"If a <bug> were to manifest before me, how would I react? Laughter? Weeping?"''
*''"If you find yourself where there are no bugs...you have to visualize and manifest them yourself!<br>Close your eyes. Reach with your mind. Feel the bugs. Feel them crawling all over your skin. Dissolve."'' <!-- 4/30/20: There is no period after the ellipse in-game. -->
*''"It doesn't matter how much I treasure the bugs. They'll never notice what I do for them..."''
*''"It is sheer hubris to think that we could ever learn everything about bugs.<br>Bugs are an experience. They are a conversation...one between the viewer and the universe."'' <!-- 4/30/20: There is no period after the ellipse in-game. -->
*''"Larva, pupa, adulthood, final transcendence... They become more exalted with every metamorphosis!"''
*''"They reflect this sullied world, yet retain their own beauty... I am bewitched by those compound eyes."''
*''"My world was once gray and dull. Then they brought their riotous jointed rainbows of wonder!"''
*''"When the universe contemplates beauty, it imagines the silhouette of the <bug>."''
*''"Will this world meet its reckoning, beheld only by the lonely eyes of the <bug>?"''
*''"I divide myself into the three sacred segments. I am the head, thorax and abdomen of the universe."''

During a Bug-Off, Flick's dialogue has a greater amount of new-age style spirituality:
*''"Hey, how was it? Did you make progress on your personal journey towards True Infestation?"''
*''"What - really?! You don't need them as spiritual guides? I mean - let me just add it up for you."''
*''"Alright, get ready to transcend...'''
*''"Once you save up 10 points, you can redeem them for bug-blessed relics I've obtained. Good luck!"''
*''"The epic tale of my pilgrimage to obtain these relics should be written on a scroll or something!"''
*''"How did you enjoy this Bug-Off, our regular celebration of bugs? Were you spiritually enriched?"''

==Trivia==
*Flick's description of the player's island when giving a 5-star [[Environment rating|evaluation]] is a truncated parody of the "this royal throne of kings" monologue from the 1595 {{Wp|William Shakespeare}} play ''{{Wp|Richard II (play)|Richard II}}''. His quote is "This roiled throne of bugs, this sceptered isle, this hive of majesty... This infested plot, this earth, this terrarium, this <Island>".
*Flick shares his [[birthday]] with [[Patty]].
*When talking to Flick at [[The Roost]], he will reveal that his net's name is Bügnir.
