Family	Emily (Sister)
Marriage	Yes

Haley is a marriage candidate who lives with her sister Emily at 2 Willow Lane, south of the town square. She starts out as one of the coldest people in Pelican Town, a fashion-conscious young woman who mocks the farmer's clothes at their first meeting. Her heart events slowly peel back that hard shell to reveal a warm, funny and caring person with a passion for photography. Her loved gifts are simple once known: the Sunflower, the Coconut, Fruit Salad and Pink Cake. Her story is a favourite because she changes more than almost anyone else in the valley.

Lore

Haley grew up wealthy and popular, and it made her a little self-centred. She judges people by appearances and complains that the town is too small to buy decent clothes. She would rather order online than drive the long way to a proper shop. The beach is the one thing she says she likes about Pelican Town. She loves sleep, sweets and the latest styles, and she clears out last year's clothes to make room for new ones.

She and Emily look after their parents' house while the parents travel the world. Emily does most of the cooking and cleaning, which causes constant friction between the sisters. Haley's real passion is her camera. She takes photos around the valley and develops them herself in a dark room at home.

Schedule

Haley likes long mornings in her room. In Spring and Fall she often spends the late morning and early afternoon by the fountain in town. In Summer she heads to the Beach and later visits Alex's Ice Cream Stand. Winter keeps her mostly indoors, moving between her room, the kitchen and the living room.

On Mondays outside Winter she walks to the river south of Marnie's Ranch to take photos. On Wednesdays, before anyone reaches six hearts with her or Alex, she stays home while Alex visits. On rainy days she stays in, fussing in front of her mirror. In Winter she has a check-up at Harvey's Clinic, and she also goes to the Night Market. Once the bus runs, she joins Emily at the Desert Festival and sunbathes by the Oasis.

Relationships

Haley's sister Emily is her opposite in almost every way, and their arguments over chores set up Haley's first heart event. Haley is good friends with Alex, and the two dance together at the Flower Dance if neither is partnered with the farmer.

Gifts

Haley loves the Sunflower, the Coconut, Fruit Salad and Pink Cake, along with most universal loves. Sunflowers are the easiest of these, because they grow in Summer and Fall from cheap seeds. Coconuts can be foraged in the Calico Desert. She likes Daffodils, which turn up free in Spring.

She is one of the pickiest villagers. She hates every fish, along with Clay, Wild Horseradish and even the Prismatic Shard, which most villagers love. She dislikes most fruit, eggs, milk and vegetables, Quartz, and most forage, mushrooms and Holly. Gifts on her birthday in Spring count eight times as much. At the Movie Theater her favourite snacks are Cappuccino Mousse Cake and Stardrop Sorbet.

These gifts are the ones this villager loves most.

Heart Events

At two hearts, Haley and Emily are arguing about who should clean under the couch cushions. Suggesting that this be Haley's one weekly job pleases her. Telling her to stop whining, or asking Emily to take the high road, costs friendship.

At four hearts, Haley is struggling to open a jar and asks if the farmer is strong. Saying yes pleases her. After the farmer opens it, she says the farmer is stronger than they look.

At six hearts, a daytime visit to the Beach outside Winter finds her upset over a lost bracelet. Offering to buy a new one annoys her, because it was her great-grandmother's. A sympathetic answer pleases her. The bracelet lies behind a shrub to the right of Elliott's cabin. Returning it earns a hug and her promise never to forget it.

At eight hearts, on a sunny day outside Winter, the farmer finds her taking photos at Marnie's Ranch. She asks how to approach a cow, climbs on one, falls off and ends up covered in dirt. She laughs it off, and a letter the next day says she is starting to understand why the farmer chose a farming life.

At ten hearts, she shows off her new dark room for developing photos. Praising it pleases her, while saying the farmer has seen better costs friendship. She then waits to see what the farmer will do. The warm choice leads to a kiss in the dark.

At fourteen hearts, after marriage, Haley overhears Penny, Jas and Vincent worrying that their school books are falling apart. Soon after, she comes up with a charity cake walk in town to help, and asks the farmer to bring a Chocolate Cake on the next sunny day.

Marriage

Haley can be married after reaching ten hearts and accepting a Bouquet, using the Mermaid's Pendant from the Old Mariner. She moves into the Farmhouse and adds her own room off the bedroom. As a wife she is far softer than at first, thanks the farmer for working so hard, and may get up early to feed the animals. On Mondays she visits Emily at their old home.

Notes

Dating all the bachelorettes at the same time and seeing each ten-heart event leads to a group scene at Haley and Emily's house, where the bachelorettes confront the farmer. Because Haley's ten-heart scene also takes place there, the two can run back to back. Carrying a Rabbit's Foot turns the group scene into a friendly gossip session instead.
