Biography
The Wind Waker
In The Wind Waker, David Jr. stays at the top of Tingle Tower, where he works with Ankle. Despite this, he is not actually related to the Tingle Siblings?.[2] According to him, he was originally a sailor who sailed the sea aimlessly, and ended up on Tingle Island after being shipwrecked by a storm one night.[3] However, according to his Figurine, he was in search of the Ghost Ship's treasure which his father had found, and ended up at Tingle Island after feeling seasick. He awoke wearing his current uniform, which he hates, and was forced to work for Tingle.[4] He looks very similar to Tingle, except he wears white, and he does not have rosy patches on his cheeks.
Four Swords Adventures
The Minish Cap
David Jr. appears in The Minish Cap at Lake Hylia, by the water south of Stockwell's vacation home. He is not enslaved and actually appeared to enjoy the company of his "siblings." When spoken to, David Jr. offers to Fuse Kinstones with Link after recognizing him as "Mr. Fairy."[5] When Link successfully Fuses Kinstones with him,[6] the southeastern most Tree in the group of four Trees in North Hyrule Field will open, revealing a chamber with a Switch connected to a Torch and a Chest with 200 Mysterious Shells. David Jr. will also express surprise that they managed to a successful Kinstone Fusion, claiming to not expect it to work.[7] He also aids Link by informing him how many more Kinstone Fusions he has left to complete.[8] If spoken to afterwards, David Jr. will acknowledge that he is not related to Tingle or his brothers, and questions why he helps them.[9]
