She makes a living by supplying stock images to a visual media company, Pletty, inc—Macy grew up in a neighboring island and now lives full time at the Inn. Before Coral Island, she went to university for accounting in Xorea, tried her luck doing corporate taxes for 3 years while selling photography as a side gig; at one point, she decided to pursue photography professionally—supply more pictures of the islands, selling more diverse content—more money for her, more recognition for the islands—win win! Before embarking on a life as an artist, she moved back home for a year, catching up with her family while preparing for her island hopping career—Though she didn't say how long she would stay in Coral Island, she mentioned that she would eventually move on to another island, unless she has a good reason not to.
For now, Macy enjoys taking pictures, playing video games, watching streamers and game reviews. She also loves a simple night with a deck of cards over frozen pizza and wine. Macy has a pet lobster that she keeps in a large aquarium in her room. She rescued it when it was stranded and lost one of its claws. Once regrown, she would set it free.. She names him Stephen.

Dialogues
First meeting
"Hello to you too! I’m Macy. Where are you visiting from? It’s nice to finally have a tourist in town."
|
"You will get used to it in no time. I have no doubt. Oh, I’m Macy!"
|
Generic
"So, here's the deal: I take the shots, then post 'em online to license. People buy the rights to use my pics through a third party. This cool website I use for my photos."
|
"What pics sell best? Oh, easy! People can't get enough of beach shots. Easiest cash I ever made!"
|
"I’m a sucker for nature panoramas. There’s always so much to take in! So much to share."
|
"I’m not a morning person. According to a study I read years ago, my chronotype means that my most efficient work hours are after 11 am. Feels right to me."
|
"I get bored quickly. I play video games when I’m tired of editing pictures. Then, if I’m still bored, I watch other people playing video games."
|
"I don’t like the rain. I usually spend rainy days editing pictures at the library and just play video games in my room all night."
|
Spring
"Spring colors are gorgeous here. It’s my time to farm photos!"
|
"I think my favorite place to take photos in Spring is around the lake. The old temple looks just beautiful surrounded by cherry blossoms."
|
"Oh wow, it’s Spring already! I’m excited to take Stephen out again and show him around."
|
"I like to take photos of the leaves as they grow. It’s beautiful and poetic, you know? Yeah! It does show progression."
|
"Mr. Mayor hires me to document the festivals. He pays pretty well. Let’s see, up next is the Cherry Blossom Festival on the 10th."
|
Summer
"Summer snapshots of Coral Island are just the bomb! I mean, come on, who wouldn't wanna see a beautiful island in full Summer bloom, right? It’s all about those vibrant Summer vibes!"
|
"I feel super blessed to live so close to the beach. I can bring my lil' buddy Stephen out for a beach run any time I feel like it."
|
"Stephen is my little ray of sunshine. He just can't get enough of the beach. He's practically bouncing with joy inside his tank, every time we go for a walk there."
|
"I love taking beach photos in Summer. Maybe it's basic, but who cares?"
|
"Wowza, it’s Summer already! Time for the community beach cleanup. I’m mulling over whether to take Stephen along. He’d be good company."
|
Fall
"I think Fall is just... Oh my gosh, just so pretty! No matter where you are. But here on Coral Island? It’s like Fall on steroids!"
|
"Taking photos in Fall can be a bit tricky. The composition has to be just right or it's just...blah. But when it works, it's magic!"
|
"The Harvest Festival is just packed with fun! And the photo ops? Don’t even get me started!"
|
"I like taking photos of Stephen in Fall. His blue shell stands out beautifully in the Fall colors."
|
"Wowza, it’s Fall already! The island is going to look so pretty with the orange leaves."
|
Winter
"I can’t take Stephen for walks in Winter. It’s kind of sad, but he doesn’t like the cold."
|
"I have Stephen’s tank heated during Winter. He’s a lot more lively when the water is warmer. I wanna get one of those smart thermometers for fish tanks, but they cost too much. So the manual one will do for now."
|
"Coral Island is always beautiful, no matter the season. When Winter wraps everything in a snow blanket, it's like stepping into a peaceful, enchanting dreamland."
|
"Oh wow, it’s Winter already! No wonder Stephen looks a bit lethargic."
|
"Every time I take a photo of the island in Winter, I think “Winter wonderland.” It really is a wonder!"
