Thegossips[1] are a trio of characters inMario & Luigi: Brothership. Found onShipshape Island, these women (one blue, one pink, and one yellow) are always gossiping with each other, as their name implies. They often discuss matters relating toside quests, giving the player hints on how to complete them. In addition, their conversations reveal more about their own lives, such as how all three gossips are married and have children.
The pink gossip's husband is involved in the side questAn Invitation to the Spa. AfterConcordia split apart, he was unable to go to his job in the city, leading the pink gossip to have him find a job onRaynforst Island instead.
All three gossips are captured byReclusa's flowers once he takes over Concordia. After Reclusa is defeated, the gossips can each be spoken to individually and acknowledge Mario and Luigi saving Concordia.
In the credits, the gossips can be found navigating the maze onMerrygo Island.
