A beautiful letter an Island representative has written to their neglected villagers in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

“””i know you aren’t actually sitting inside my switch waiting for me. i know you’re just pixels and code. but that doesn’t make what you meant to me imaginary.

for a while, you gave me somewhere to go.

i could walk along the beach. rearrange some flowers. swim in the ocean. see a shooting star. buy an outfit i absolutely did not need. sit beneath a tree. visit a friend. listen to a song.

there was always something small waiting for me tomorrow.”
