WHATTT I LOVE THIS SM

there's like 3 stages of the stardew brain rot it's insane it's like

1. i'm going to play this game nonstop and do All the things

2. i'm going to hang out with my fav npcs, maybe look at some of their tags on tumblr and see what the fandom is up to!

and then

3. i literally haven't touched the actual game in days but i can't stop thinking about this npc & rotating them around in my mind like the plate in a microwave. it's like every time the timer beeps i go Hold on and see the food is still cold in the middle so back in it goes .

went to the beach this morning. saw someone at one of the tables in the grassy spot scrolling their phone and and surrounded by at least four chickens

I think I found Shane irl

OML, I LOVE THIS 🤭

What you need

In my part of the world it is 2 September. My one-year anniversary of writing Lyra and Harvey. What better way to celebrate than with a chapter update and this amazing art?

I was so very fortunate to commission the incredibly cool and talented @lemon-zesttt for this stunningly beautiful art of Lyra and her Harvey on their second honeymoon.

I have put these two through some tough times in my long fic and so goodness me, they need... no, they deserve this little getaway.

They also need each other.

The details in this piece very honestly take my breath away. The light is simply beautiful. Lyra looks so gorgeous. (Look close at her lil tummy. I love it.) And Harv... well, you can see him. He is delicious.

Thank you so much for working with me again @lemon-zesttt! You are an absolute wizard!

And for those looking for the latest chapter of the long fic (now including spicy content) you can find it here.

Thank you so much to everyone who has read my work over the last year. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Little commission I did! Marlon being a father figure to the Farmer!!!

commissions are open! dm me or check my ko-fi for pricing!

OKAY here's part 2 of the "how the stardew marriageables would feel to hug" once again will be in alphabetical order !!

bachelorette version HERE

the bachelors (and krobus)

alex: alex loves working out and is obviously very strong. with this in mind, i think he'd be another person who accidentally hugged far tighter than he meant to. his hugs feel like sitting in a reclining chair - like one of the demo ones at a furniture shop. despite how tight he hugs you, you find yourself relaxing into him. plus, i just think it would be nice to bury your face in his chest, alex gently rubbing the back of your head and you telling him about your day. i think alex would smell like leather and maybe musky cologne. a bit more overpowering than the rest (his smell literally latches onto you, your clothing, or even the air around you.) it's not a bad scent tho, just very "masculine" in a way?

elliott: elliott's hugs are lovely! i imagine he has the softest hugs of all the marriageables (likely do to the copious amounts of skincare products/lotions he purchases, but that's just an added bonus.) hugging elliott would feel similar to hugging a silk pillowcase: nice, soft/gentle, and an overall enjoyable experience. elliott's hugs are the perfect "i just want a simple hug right now" kind. i imagine he'd enjoy wrapping his arms around your waist and complimenting you as the two of you hugged. elliott probably smells like an inkwell, with some pomegranate and maybe some ginger (and the ocean, of course!) very light and fruity (honestly you might steal his cologne a time or two.)

harvey: the man who brought this entire spiel to life.. harvey definitely gives the best hugs. his hugs feel like being wrapped in a comforting blanket or feeling the wind gently blow across your face as you sit outside and watch the sun set. i've mentioned this before, but i think harvey loves back hugs. something about having his arms wrapped around you, drawing small shapes on your stomach, and gently kissing your cheek just draws him in. i imagine harvey smells like coffee, a warm chocolate cake, some sandalwood and fresh pine. his hugs are perfect for when you both need to unwind after a stressful day. something about them (maybe it's his doctorly aura) makes your body feel calmed, like it's being healed in a way. legend says that harvey's hugs tend to have healing properties so 👀

krobus: he doesn't exactly have arms, so hugging you back isn't an option. at least not physically, that is. he somehow manages to transmit the feeling of hugging you into your mind and it causes your skin to tingle. however, if you were to actually hug krobus, i imagine it would feel similar to hugging a stuffed animal or a mystical cat. i imagine krobus would be very soft (possibly fluffy!) and his little wisp at the top of his head would rest against your shoulder. as for smells, krobus is a bit difficult. (obviously, coming from a life in the sewers, it's not going to be the greatest thing to smell) HOWEVER i imagine he would smell like black cherry or the "black ice" car air freshener.

sam: oh sam gives amazing hugs. unlike alex, sam crushes you on purpose. he's just very excited and full of love - he needs to share it by squeezing you until you pop! (not literally, of course). i think it's primarily a case of "cuteness aggression" where he just gets so overwhelmed with positive emotions from seeing you that he has to let them out by hugging you tight enough to crack a rib. you don't mind though, and even joke that he could take up practice as a chiropractor because, after hugging him, your spine always seems to become board straight. i imagine sam smells like strawberries, soda, and the beach, maybe a slight hint of desert mist. i like to imagine he also uses his height to an advantage and often picks you up when he hugs you, probably spinning you around as well.

sebastian: another one who i don't think is much of a hugger, especially if he doesn't know you that well. if he does warm up to you, though, he prefers side hugs or he prefers to be the one being hugged, not the other way around. full contact hugs always result in awkwardness and he'd rather avoid that. his hugs are a bit "colder" in a way and usually are finished within a few seconds. it's not that he doesn't like you, he just isn't a big fan of physical touch. however, if you decide to hug him, he will happily lean against you for as long as you want him to. if you drape your arm around his waist and let him lean into your side, his head on your shoulder, he may end up falling asleep. (yoba knows he needs it...) i think sebastian would smell like the outdoors: like a smokey campfire, like peaches, like the crisp, fall air, and faintly like motor oil.

shane: oh another amazing hugger. shane's hugs are very pillowy and sweet, also slightly addictive. it's very easy to sink into him and enjoy the moment. on the other hand, i feel like shane also enjoys being hugged. he loves having your arms around him, your head resting against his chest or shoulder (or in between his shoulder blades if you're back hugging him, this one's a real favorite). bonus points if you trace shapes onto his stomach or lower back, he goes crazy for that sort of thing. (but he'll never admit it, obviously). i like to imagine shane smells like cherry cola, maybe something outdoorsy or something light (ie body wash or soap). i don't think he would go out of his way to make himself a certain way. however, i do think it's hilarious that he has that line of dialogue where he's like ""Sniff*... *sniff*... mmm... what's that wonderful fragrance you're wearing? Eau de pepperoni?”" <- goober.

I think people that characterize Harvey as ONLY being like a shy blushing stuttering nervous fellow but gloss over the fact that he can also be incredibly forward sometimes are missing out on a big part of his character. I don't know...I'm just very partial to the "stop by my place if you ever need a free confidential check-up" (paraphrased? Maybe. Y'all get what I'm referring to though.) dialogue.

Thank you!! They will be bestfriends forever 🥹💗
