Letters to Jingle

[JellyBeans]

hi mr Jingle.

I'll be honest, the number one thing on my christmas list this year is a damn break. please. yes, I narrowly escaped the pandemic by moving to a deserted island, but would you believe that moving to a previously uninhabited island meant I had to clean and build up the entire island myself? all I've done is dig, and plant, and terraform. I sweated all summer long making gardens, and sprucing up the neighbourhood, hoping that come autumn I'd get to relax with a hot chocolate. but no such luck. Brewster was nowhere to be seen. and now the snow comes, and I think I'll have some fun building snowboys. and they have the audacity - the sheer audacity - to tell me I'm having fun wrong? that I'm building them incorrectly? quite frankly I think they should be worshipping the ground I walk on for bringing them to life.

so please, I beg of you. this christmas, let me have a break. let someone else represent the island for a bit. I'll leave you cookies on christmas eve to sweeten the deal.
Jess
P.S. just don't leave Tad in charge - he'll try to benchpress Nook's desk

The entire letter doesn't have to be one big 'ha ha,' so to speak. As long as the comedic element is there in some fashion - and there are many forms of humor! You may be pleasantly surprised with how naturally it may come to you as you're writing. No stress, just fun!

"Dear Jingle,

Please save me from this never ending nightmare. There is nothing to do on this island and nothing ever changes. I have tried counting down the days until you would arrive. November 1st, 2nd, 3rd...14th, 15th...29th, 30th...November 1st. I swear to you it went from November 30th back to the 1st.

Worst is that nobody seems to notice! I go about this demented Groundhog Day survivalist nightmare catching the same fish, catching the same bugs, watering the same plants, seeing the same visitors...Jingle, I am begging you. Help. Me. The balloons come throughout the day dropping impossible items such as tables, I have found cameras hidden inside of the trees.

I don't know what messed up simulation Nook is running disguised under the guise of a deserted island getaway package, but please just get me out of here.

Yours Truly,
Lilith"

Dear Jingle,

I’m writing to inform you that there is someone on my island that needs to be added to the naughty list. Every time I’m trying to work on Cascara’s rivers and land, Bluebear decides that it would be a good idea to stroll on over and sit on the ground right in front of me. This kind of behavior must be stopped. She is obstructing the development of this beautiful island that she resides on. You would think she would want me to continue making the island look nice so other villagers would want to move in but that doesn’t seem to be the case. I’m not asking you to give her coal...but maybe just give her a few chairs or benches since she doesn’t seem to know where the already existing ones are.

Thank you,
Brooke from Cascara

Dear "Jingle",

The jig is up. I've read "Twas The Night Before Christmas" over one hundred times, trying to find a mention of you, and not once did I see your name.

Who are you really? Some sort of South Pole Reindeer spy, preparing to wreak havoc on my beautiful island, Mayshire? Or are you looking to steal Christmas like some sort of Grinch? Whatever the reason, once you land you will be detained for impersonating one of Santa's reindeer.

I'm sorry it has come to this, but your reindeer games are over. Sure, you've brought joy to thousands every Toy Day and yeah, you may have given me some awesome furniture and clothing in the past, and okay I'll admit that the sight of you does bring a smile to my face, but that doesn't excuse your lies...right...?

Hm. But what if you really are one of Santa's reindeer? Well...even if you're not...should that matter if you bring so much joy? You're doing something good at no cost at all. Maybe I'm in the wrong here...

I think I have some thinking to do. Please don't put me on the naughty list.

See you on Toy Day,
Ganucci

Dear Jingle,
As war rages on in Saboria the animals are getting hungrier they're fighting other for any food they can get..it's getting bad here. They haven't had a single glint of hope here. They're not even believing in Santa anymore they just hoping to make it to the next day alive. As the storm rages on the cold isn't bothering the animals anyway. They're trying to let it go. They're asking me "Do you wanna build a snowman" at any given moment of peace. All I can do is conceal and don't feel and tell them to fight on. I just want the fighting to stop. I want everyone to be happy. Even if you're not Santa or Rudolph the red nose reindeer you're cooler than that ! You're the seriously epic. I do hope you come visit our war stricken island and give Saboria the hope it needs. Even if it's for a second. Please though don't run over my grandma. Grandma can't be run over by reindeer. Not again. I just hope I get one present since I'm not getting any this year. Please give me one after all I'm the one who has your nose. Anyways enough chaos. Hope to see you soon.
~Sincerely a hopefully Milky Star

Dear Jingle,

I'm writing to you because I'm very concerned about what one of my friends wants for Toy Day.

Jeremiah keeps insisting that he wanted a sculpture of himself made entirely of cheese as his present. He said it'd be a new home for all of his bug friends. I think that he shouldn't get a while statue of cheese. It'll be sooooo unbelievably unhealthy for him to eat that much. If you could replace the cheese with something healthier, both Jeremiah and his bug family will be much better off. Maybe tofu?

Sincerely,
Snowifer

P.S. If I could get a new fishing rod for Toy Day, that'd be great. Preferably one that doesn't break. Thank you!

Dear Jingle,

For Toy Day this year Sherb is asking for a plethora amount of candy to share with the bugs living in his house. While I would normally be happy to oblige this request, I am afraid I have given away all my candy this year to the Czar of Halloween not even two months ago!

Sherb and his bugs have been fantastic residents of this island this year and I would love to be able to accommodate them in any way I can. So I write this letter to you as a plea! For my Holiday Wish this year I would like Sherb and his bugs to have as much candy as they desire!

Best wishes and happy holidays,
Azrael

Dear Jingle,

Fernfield has been awfully quiet for a few months, well aside from Blather's constant bickering and shrieking. *sigh* Diana could hear him from an acre away. She ended up filing a noise complaint to Copper. Not good.

You see, somebody needs to maintain all the fish and bugs at the museum, except the museum is a one ma- Er... Owl... Staff team. If only Tom Nook would just hire somebody else.... Darn tanukis and their cheapskate ways. Said owl happens to have a severe case of insectophobia. Since Chri- Toy Day is in the spirit of giving gifts, I'd like the book "How to Get Lots of Bug Friends!" By Bob the Cat for our fearful feathered friend. Heard he's a good author... He's also famous for writing "Top 10 Weirdest Napping Spots I've Woken Up In" I hope that'll help him overcome his fears... Or Tom Nook'll slash that salary of his and it's never a good thing when that happens... Last time it did Phyllis and Polly lost their jobs completely...

From your friend, Ametsa Izarra of Fernfield

I hope this counts, I'm not much of a writer

Dear Mr. Jingle,

Hey there. You don’t know me but I’m writing to you as a last resort because I’ve been on the Naughty List (you know, the one that Claus dude throws together every year to ruin Christmas for any child that isn’t a perfect, ADHD-free goody-two-shoes) for 5 straight years now and I’m starting to think that Santa is a little biased. Could be because of the incident I caused on Christmas Day 2015 that ended in the whole house (including the chimney) going up in flames but... we try not to speak about that anymore.
My reason for contacting you is this, and I’m just going to be as honest as possible: I heard that you’re also in the business of gift-giving, and I’m in dire need of some holiday spirit (in the form of material objects, of course). I think it’s only fair that you spoil me a little, since Santa’s been neglecting me for half a decade, and I’ve missed capitalism’s cold embrace. Maybe you have some sort of newcomer bonus deal in place for these situations? Not all of us were created in Santa Claus’ perfect image...

Talk soon,
Your new friend ryuk

Dear Jingle,

It's almost that time of year, so I am writing to you with some suggestions for Aria's Toy Day celebration. I was thinking that it would be a great idea if you paired up with a rabbit I met earlier this year named Zipper T. Bunny! He visited Aria not long after I moved to the island, and he brought the residents nothing but joy. He seems quite fond of hiding eggs, so maybe you could work with him to put toys in eggs and hide them around Aria. I'm sure everyone would have a lot of fun shaking trees, fishing, digging, chopping wood, shooting down balloons, and hitting rocks to get their presents. Well, it's just an idea. Happy holidays, and I look forward to your visit!

Sincerely,
Aria's Island Representative Ashley

Dear Jingle,

As you know Toy Day is approaching fast and I apologize for the short notice. I entrusted one of my residents, Jeremiah, to hand my previous letter to the Airport swiftly with all of my instructions, our wishlists, you know, the usual every year. I was worried when you never wrote back as you always do, so I asked Jeremiah about the delivery. "W-w-well, maybe Pete got swept away in the harsh winter cold, nee-deep!" It's freezing and he was sweating as hard as Blathers in a Bug-Off. Veeerrrry suspicious. Well, eventually he croaked up and it has come to my attention that Jeremiah has...eaten it. He mixed the paper with hot butter and chocolate chips covered in spider webs he found under his bed and ate it. Who even does that? Where do I even begin with how disgusting that is. Anyway, it was my mistake to buy paper decorated with candy canes and gingerbread men which, surely, enticed him. I guess you can say my frog ate my homework, ha ha... ha. I'M SURE WE'VE FIGURED OUT WHO'S ON THE NAUGHTY LIST THIS YEAR. You're still planning on visiting us, right?

See you soon(?)
Scarlet, Honeywell

Dear Jingle,

I am writing to you regarding one of the tenants on this island.
You see, I have a clown infestation. I am being harassed by Pietro. Every morning I go outside for my morning jog and he’s just standing there... singing in the plaza menacingly. He has started to pull “pranks” on the residents of Starfall. Everywhere I look I see him, Halloween ended 2 months ago! Why does he insist on harassing my residents and I?

I kindly request you give him coal for Christmas, to show him that his behaviour is unacceptable.

Thank you for considering my request.

Sincerely, Liam from Starfall

Dearest Jingle,

I've been informed of your plight of barren letters this Toy Day season. Unfortunately, there have been some... *circumstances* as of late that have made communication difficult. There has been *considerable* bickering amongst the residents on the best way to decorate the island, which has been besieged by a pile of snow. I insist that Christmas lights are the way to go, but one of my residents started growing pumpkins! Another scattered seashells on the beach! Somehow, roses and chrysanthemums are still growing! Am I the only one having a crisis over off-season décor?!

Thusly, I am writing to request the presence of a starry-eyed reindeer here on the small island of Xanthye. It would be a wonderful opportunity for those of us who may have been having a falling out of recently to make amends, with the help of some much-needed holiday cheer! And warmth. I worry for my residents who are chilling half to death in sundresses and bathing suits.

In need of Holiday Spirit,
-Mikaiah.

Dear Jingle,

I have a strange request for you from one of our residents here on Cosa Bella Island.
Kiki is a new resident on the island and has noticed Nooks Cranny stock toy items for toy day.
She would desperately love to receive a kitten plushie if that is possible as she doesn't like the dog plushies.
Although she has only been on the island for a short time she has been good and I believe she deserves it

Thank you..

Oh wait sorry I forgot Um.. Stitches Kindly asks and notes that he has been good this year and would like another large bottle of mayo again this year so he can eat it and send some to me in the mail. ( He likes to send me letters about everything and smudge mayo on it)

Hope to see you soon,

Stephanie (KittenNoir) From Cosa Bella Island

Can the jingle letter be shorter than 100 words ? just wondering

 

[Valzed]

Dearest Jingle,

I know how busy you are this time of year so I’ll only take a moment of your time. For Toy Day this year I’d like to ask for a few things for my Residents, please. Books for Molly. Protein Powder for Flip & Dom. A karaoke machine for Ketchup. An ant farm for Stitches. Tailor Tickets for Ken. A Dragon Jacket for Octavian. A Crown for Ankha. Last but certainly not least, for Muffy & Hazel, tickets to the Etiquette Class “Tactful Talking”.

For myself for Toy Day I would like to request more DIYs. Now I’m sure you must get many requests for special DIYs but I’m actually hoping to get more of the every day DIYs. I have received enough Tiki Torch, Campfire & Kettle Bell DIYs to literally wallpaper EVERY ROOM in my home. I know for a fact that there are regular DIYs out there that I have yet to learn. If you could gift me a few of the normal DIYs that I currently do not have I’d be so very grateful.

We all look forward to seeing you on Toy Day!

With Love,
Val Brody, Amity Island Resident Rep.

Letters for this event should be a minimum of 100 words, and not go beyond 200.
