#asexual farmer

[writer-by-the-sea]

elliot w an asexual reader? trying to navigate and communicate their relationship and it ends in fluff maybe

Thank you to my friend @chenziee for helping me out with this. Please go take a look at all their Ace fics they have available in the One Piece fandom :)

Snuggled beneath the blankets, a toasty fire and a cheesy movie playing — a repeated date night like many others with the farmer that I would never grow tired of. They lean against me, their head resting on my shoulder as I take another sip of my wine. The popcorn we had earlier surprisingly paired well with the red wine, but now I felt myself becoming sleepy with the farmer here beside me keeping me warm and comfortable. 

For a few weeks now, we’ve been seeing each other. Maybe not considered ‘official’ quite yet, but I could feel us moving in the same direction. Each night I spent with them I felt myself growing deeper feelings, feelings which I could only dream that they would return. As I cuddled closer to them, adjusting my position to place my arm across their shoulders, I knew that this was a relationship far beyond that of friends or even a new crush. 

I was falling in love. 

“Hey,” I mumbled when the movie credits began to roll, the soft singing of some unknown performer slipping through the speakers. “Do you mind if I stay the night?” I kept my gaze to the tv screen, knowing that if I were to make eye contact I might reveal just how nervous I was to ask this. Normally, in my past relationships, by this point we would be sleeping together. With my question I suddenly became aware of the old condom sitting in my wallet. Good lord, how old was that thing now? Hardly usable based on age alone, but the friction in my wallet had no doubt torn it to shreds. 

I shook the thought away, there was no chance we’d be using that condom, let alone any condom tonight. I could tell the farmer has been apprehensive about becoming intimate, and if we were ever to move forward in that sense it would be when they were comfortable—

“Sure,” they replied with a smile, looking up at me while still relaxing on my shoulder, those gorgeous eyes luring me into a quick kiss on the lips. When they pulled back, they chewed at their bottom lip, their hands coming to sit in their lap while they fiddled with their thumbs. “Look, there’s something I need to tell you.” 

My heart dropped.

The worry in their eyes, their sudden shortness of breath, the way they were the one now avoiding my gaze as they stared down at their lap. 

“Is there someone else?” I asked. My heart felt as if it could burst from my chest. Of course, this all made sense. Of all of the other bachelors and bachelorettes in town, there were much better options than me. Alex and his strength, Penny and her kindness, Harvey with his practice, Sebastian and his homegrown plants in the basement. 

“What?” The farmer laugh, short and sweet. “No-“

“My god, are you dying?!” 

“Elliott, no.” 

“I’ll give you a kidney if you need it, just say the word.” 

“I think we would need a blood test first…”

“Then let’s go to Harvey’s! He can see if I’m a match right now!” 

“Elliott, I don’t want your kidney!” 

“It’s perfectly healthy, I promise!” I pressed my lips together in thought for a moment before continuing. “Wait, does wine affect the kidney or is that the liver? Farmer it might not be that healthy after all but—“ 

“Elliott, No. Look, I’m ace.” 

“Ace?” I paused. Ace. What on earth was ace? “You… don’t have kidneys? Like at all?” 

“No, just,” the farmer covered their mouth, muffling themselves. 

I took their free hand, holding it gently while I looked deep into their eyes. “Please, don’t cry. We can figure this out together, and I’ll be here for you every step of the way.” 

They shook their head, suddenly dropping the hand covering their mouth only to reveal their laugh. The farmer rolled back, forcing me to drop their hand as now both of their hands covered their face while they continued to laugh, only their laughter growing even louder.

“If you’re dying this isn’t funny.” I pouted. 

“No, no—“ they snorted, tears now coming from their eyes. “This is hilarious—“

“I hardly find kidney failure funny—“

They sat up, wiping the tears from their eyes before the spoke. “I’m not dying.” 

I let out a breath. “Oh thank heavens.” 

“Ace means… well, it has to do with sex.” 

“Ahh.. yes, ace.” Right. Ace…. “Actually, no. I don’t know what that means. Does it have to do with golfing? Or poker?” I scratched at the back of my head, it wasn’t that I wasn’t into role play, but I would play a very poor golf instructor. 

The farmer snorted by trying to hold back another laugh. “No, it means I don’t want to have sex. As in… With most standard relationships… There is sexual attraction on both sides. I’m not… sexually attracted to anyone. I don’t get aroused in that sense.” 

“Oh.” 

“And if that’s an issue for you—“

“Are you… boyfriend attracted to me?” 

The farmer tilted their head, baffled. “What?” 

“If you don’t want to have sex, and if you’re not ‘sexually’ attracted to me, am I boyfriend material?” 

“You don’t mind that I don’t want to have sex with you?” 

“Will you keep watching cheesy movies with me and sharing your wine?” 

“Well, yeah—“

I pulled them into a hug, kissing the top of their head before resting my chin there. “Then you’re stuck with me, darling.” 

“And you’re sure you’re okay not having sex?” Their question was muffled by my shirt but still loud enough to be heard. 

“Of course! If I get to spend time with you… I’ll be the happiest man alive.” 

“Thank you, Elliott.” 

“Don’t thank me. Thank the ancient condom in my wallet that kept me from ever making an awkward move on you. It might even be old enough for a sip of that wine by now.” 

“Liar. Let me see this thing.” 

I chuckled and pulled away from them, taking out my wallet and plucking out the condom to be handed over. I didn’t even feel the ridge in it anymore, honestly how old was it? 

“I’ve never even heard of this brand,” the farmer said while they inspected it. 

I nodded. “Pretty sure their factory went up in flames many years ago.” 

“Hm. Sounds like they didn’t protect themselves very well.” The farmer smirked and passed the condom back. “Thanks for being so understanding… I really appreciate that you’ve been so… not pushy.” 

Sliding the condom back into my wallet for no reason, I laughed. “Not pushy Elliott at your service, my dear.” 

They stood, taking my hand and dragging me along with them. “It’s late, we should head to bed.” 

“As you wish… and hey,” I stopped, still holding their hand and made them look back at me. “If I ever make you uncomfortable, just let me know, alright?” 

The farmer nodded and delivered a kiss to my cheek, their free hand coming to rest on my chest. “You have no idea how much that means to me.” 

“You will always mean more to me than sex, I hope you know that.” 

The sadness that flashed across their eyes was something I never wished to see again. I could only imagine how hard this must be for them, and relationships that may have ended because of it.

“My dick on the other hand… will be hard as a rock in the morning and I apologize in advance.” 

“Elliot, oh my god!” 

“It’s human nature!” 

They groaned and smacked my chest. “You ruined the moment!”

“How could I ever?” I laughed and scooped them into my arms, my need for sleep now stronger than ever as I carried them into the bedroom. “When I love you as much as I do!”I dropped the farmer onto the bed, both of us giggling as I crawled under the sheets beside them. 

They dropped their face into their pillow and sighed. “Don’t confess to me after talking about your dick. Tell me you love me again in the morning.” 

I leaned over and kissed their cheek, earning a playful glare in return. “Anything for you.”  I would make sure to tell them as many times as they needed to hear it.

Honestly as a neurodivergent asexual person Harvey is the fuckin’ best bachelor out there

Someone please get this man some anxiety meds, and some more model plane kits please, this sopping wet cat of a man must be protected at all costs. In my headcannons, he wears an asexual flag pin on his medical bag :3

Could you do SDV Bachelor/ette thoughts on an asexual farmer? (grey ace or demisexual preferably) If you're only up for doing a few characters, Sebastian, Haley, Maru and Shane would be neat to see

Sure, why not.

I will write about these 4 characters, otherwise it comes out a lot, hope it's fine for you, dear anon. Enjoy!

Haley:

Honestly, at first she did not understand what it meant.

Well, like yes, she doesn't think that everyone should jump into bed with the first person they meets, but if a partner has already been found, and they are sure that this is their soulmate? What then?

She will ask her sister to explain what asexuality means.

Haley became quite curious, so she will probably ask the Farmer to talk about their gray asexuality over a cup of coffee (if they don't mind).

It's certainly not her style, but she understands Farmer and will be supportive if anyone presses them about it.

As a friend, Haley is very understanding, but as a partner... There can be disagreements.

But in general, she is okay with Farmer's orientation, even if she doesn't fully understand it.

Maru:

You too?

(I once had a headcanon that Maru is asexual, but I never wrote about it and just forgot. Then I remembered and thought it would be nice to write a little)

She understands Farmer very well and also supports Farmer when they start dating.

They are a good person and have always supported Maru in her inventions and everything else, and she will also respond with mutual support.

True, there will be an awkward moment when her mother: when Robin building new rooms in the house and also made crib, which served as a kind of "hint". Robin didn't mean to pressure Maru and Farmer, of course not! It just got awkward.

But hey, it will always be possible to apply for adoption, it doesn't have to go as far as sexual attraction (if the Farmer and Maru want to have children, of course).

If Maru and the Farmer have reached the point that both are connected by a strong emotional connection, then before starting, they will once again ask each other if they want this.

Complete harmony and understanding.

Shane:

Surprisingly, Shane took the news lightly.

In truth, Shane is very touched that the Farmer trusts him enough to tell about their demisexuality.

Sure, people in Stardew Valley are understanding and kind, and they won't start thinking Farmer is a weirdo, but still. They're just who they are, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Shane will be the first to defend the Farmer if anyone starts to convince the Farmer that this is a "transitional stage". Leave them alone, do not impose your "help".

He will also be ok with that if the Farmer and Shane start dating.

He loves the Farmer so much, and he is not going to be pressured into making them do what they don't want.

Sebastian:

Bisexual, homosexual, asexual - Sebastian doesn't care who they are.

Well, it's not like he doesn't care at all, of course not. Just if the Farmer is his good friend, then what difference does it make what orientation they are?

Their choice, their decision, and Sebastian will respect that and remind others to respect the Farmer as well.

Super chill about it.

If he and the Farmer start dating, then it seems to me that this will not cause any problems for Sebastian either.

[aroaceconfessions]

Now that I'm truly questioning whether I'm on the aro spectrum (and fairly sure that I'm ace) I'm really starting to freak out about the effects this will have on my future. Having kids (not biologically) is a big goal of mine, and while I don't believe parents need to come in pairs most adoption organisations do. I am glad at least that I am a woman, trying to adopt kids as a single dad is apparently pretty impossible which is sad. Even though this process is still 5-10 years away for me, I really worry about how things about me will look on adoption applications. They really judge you on what they think is the perfect person even if that doesn't make the best parents and kids just need homes.

Does anyone have any experience/examples of acearo parents?

[dmfromtheblacklagoon]

Y’know what. Screw it, random Harvey headcannon time:

This man is my personal little skrimblo, my grunkle if you will, so I have decided to compile my personal headcannons for him here for you folks!

His personal comfort show is Over the Garden Wall, I can imagine him listening to the soundtrack while he builds :]

He struggles with C-PTSD and RSD, which is possibly canon? Hinted at HEAVILY in his higher friendship/marriage dialogues. I just need him to know it’s gonna be okay ;-;

He enjoys antiquing and thrifting! I feel like he would heavily enjoy the pre-loved items, however making sure to properly cleaning them before he puts them away!

There is absolutely no evidence to prove this, but I feel like he would, or has collected coins. Really not sure why, I just feel like this fits him quite well.

Mentioned this in my last Harvey appreciation post, but I feel like he would be asexual or possibly demisexual! This might also be your local ace wanting more rep, but I get a strong vibe from this man.

He has a fear of getting tattoos. Both the commitment of having something on his body for so long, the risk of infection, and the fear of the actual process worry him, however he hopes to get one to represent Farmer soon :3

Harvey loves bugs. Another one I don’t have any evidence for, but I can just imagine him sitting on a bench outside with a little guy on his hand while he reads, or flipping over stones to make sure the pill bugs are doing well. (Also, he seems like the kind of person who had a bug hyperfixation, coming from someone with one)

He doesn’t know any instruments fluently per say, but he finds the mandolin to be a fun, and good instrument to play around with, especially learning songs for farmer!

He has a complex understanding of the International Phonetic Alphabet, and will go on happy rambles about etymology if farmer inquires! He is a doctor after all, and lots of medical terminology is based in latin, which has a deep connection with the IPA so this would make sense!

He is terrified of dogs, specifically small dogs. They just seem too evil and ill-intended, he cannot understand why these little goblins must be so aggressive, which is honestly valid

Anyways, that’s all i’ve got for now, but more coming soon possibly?? If folks want, I can do my headcannons for other characters as well!! Enjoy my friends :3

Sam, Seb, and Abi are a throuple and you can’t convince me otherwise.

Today I was helping run the booth for the local queer non-profit at the farmer's market and a woman told me that she would like a flag, pointing to our little bucket of flags. So I picked up the bucket and I brought it over and asked her which one she'd like.

"Well, tell me about them!"

"Oh! Okay! This one is the inclusion flag- its for everyone, including allies."

"What's this one?"

"That's the bisexual flag: it represents people who are attracted to two or more genders."

"Hmm... what about this one?"

"That's the nonbinary flag: it represents people whose gender isn't strictly 'male or female.'"

"Hmm... what's this purple one?"

"That's the asexual flag: it represents people who may not feel sexual attraction the way that others do."

She put her hand to her chest and got this really curious look on her face. "Tell me more about that!"

"Oh, happy to! So like if you're out with your bestie and someone real fine walks by and she's like 'omg look at him' and you're like 'girl get a grip?' Or like you just don't get what the 'big deal' is about sex or why everyone is so weird about it? But there's also room for like- you don't fall in love with the way someone looks, you're attracted to the person- their sense of humor and their kindness, or there's something about their personality that just makes it click for you? That's asexuality, too!"

And she got real quiet and seemed to think about it for a minute. So I grabbed our little informational sheet about different queer identities and handed her a copy. "If you want to do some research, this is probably a great place to start."

She thanked me and took an ace flag, stuck it in her hair.

Sometimes when you're online all the time, its easy to think that 'everyone knows about (topic), there's no reason to keep talking about it so much.' But while the people on the internet are real people, the internet ISN'T real life. And there are lots of people who do need to know that they do have community!

One of the jokes is that I'm a lot of people's 'patient zero' for discovering that they're queer. This is why.

[alterworldstudios]

Sat down and made some ace pride icons for os and both euthanasia’s (for simplicity sake, call the purple one lunacy)

Feel free to use them if you’d like! And if you’d want any made with your own pride flag, feel free to ask and I’ll make an edit!

The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) | Official Trailer

The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) is a lore-rich and choice-driven historical fantasy visual novel inspired by Irish mythology and Celtic folklore. Play as a tenant farmer from mid-19th century Ireland, whose path becomes inexplicably entwined in fairy affairs after getting robbed by the roadside and lured into the mythic and war-torn world of Tír na nÓg: A once unified land, now divided into the Seelie and Unseelie Courts. Will you escape and return home with your stolen belongings? Or does fate have something else in mind?

🍃 STEAM 🍂 ITCH.IO 🍃PATREON 🍂DISCORD 🍃

If you're excited for our indie game, please give us a wishlist on Steam or a follow on Itch.io! For more information, click below👇

Meet the Cast

Facts & Questions: The Game

🍃 The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) is a Kickstarter-funded project currently in development. Due to the scope of the story, we will be releasing content serially on Steam and Itch.io over several years, beginning November 1, 2024. While you wait, feel free to play our demo! The revised version, with all new backgrounds and more voice acting, has been released on Steam and Itch.io as of August 1st, 2024!

🍂 The main character's name and pronouns are determined by the player, but in Vol. 1 (or the demo content), the MC will be referred to as "they/them" due to a case of mistaken identity.

🍃 Thanks to our Kickstarter, all upcoming routes will have both romantic and platonic choice options. If you're uninterested in romance, feel free to make friends instead!

🍂 Due to its Irish setting, NDM will occasionally feature instances of characters speaking in Gaeilge, i.e. the Irish language. All instances of Gaeilge are linked to an internal translation tool, which will be voiced by Nigel McKeon, a Gaeilgeoir.

🍃 Shae and Robin are non-binary characters, and respectively use they/them and any/all pronouns. Robin and Keagan are also arospec, and Shae is asexual. (Note: You can pursue the arospec characters romantically, but their romances might look a little different as a result of their identity.)

🍂 The free demo consists of the introductory volume of The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe). It is 2.5 to 3 hours of total gameplay, and ends at the point in which the player would continue on to a route (Vol. 2-7). The full game will be paid.

🍃 NDM is very intentionally set just prior to the onset of the Great Famine, which is both thematically and textually relevant to the leftist, anti-imperialist story we're aiming to tell. If you would like more insight into this, refer to this post.

🍂 Some Mac users who directly download the demo from Itch.io run into issues launching the game. If you're also running into issues, please refer to this post on our itch.io page.

🍃 Prepare yourself for horse related shenanigans. 🐎
