Stardew Valley x Reader Bachelor Headcanons

Alex

Before you and Alex got together, you probably became long time friends

He was def like "damn they hot" but then when it became more than just that he was like "DAMN THEY'RE HOT"

It's been a bit since he's felt those silly little butterflies, it genuinely makes him nervous

Que him leaning against a wall like "Hey bbg" but he's sweating bullets

After his confession, he feels much better, and the nervous air that only you could really pick up on has disappeared

Very PDA, arm is always around you, probably not in the back pocket but if he's tipsy enough then boom it appears

Insists on going in the mines with you but saw a slime and wanted to dip so bad but you protected him <3

"Heh...I totally wasn't scared. Don't worry babe I'll protect you" nah boy

He feels his heart melt every time he sees you and Evelyn baking together, or her just acting like your grandma

Even George has become a grandpa figure, giving advice with alex or general things

Alex is secretly insecure about himself, but with you, he finds room to grow as a person and find that those worries are unwarranted

Though he doesn't say it often, you make him feel seen, and he truly appreciates that

Elliot

(Personal fav right now so I'm about to go OFF)

If you picked romance for his book he's imagining you both as the main characters

Not a complete parallel because he's like "can't be creepy" but a teensy bit

Speaking of "can't be creepy" he has written multiple sonnets about you since realizing his feelings

Unlike some of the other bachelors, he embraces his feelings more, using his passion to inspire his writing and other endeavors

Heavy on the gifts and courting stuff

Gives you love poems at least once a week he has so many piled up but he doesn't wanna go overboard

Says the sappiest things all the time with this love struck look in his eyes

PRETTIEST MANNNNN

Words of affirmation kinda guy, he's poetic like that

Leah pokes at him for being a simp but mans could not care less he's proud

Picks out pretty sea shells that wash up on the shore and gives them to you, and they're always intact!

Big fan of the flower dance and looks forward to getting to dance with you in front of the entire town! maybe your worst nightmare but he's just happy to show you off (and his dancing skills lol)

Speaking of which, mans is gonna teach you how to waltz and a bunch of other old timey dances

At some point he WILL show up in the pouring rain to profess his love, or give you flowers, or both

You're like "Elliot we're literally dating was this necessary and he's like "OF COURSE MY DEAR"

He'd love heartstopper

Harvey

Insert too sweet by Hozier

Silly little doctor guy tries to avoid you but can't help but be drawn to you

He sees you running around doing your daily tasks, and just watches you from afar from the window of the doctor's office

Maru notices and tells you to come in sometime cuz her boss ain't gonna get nowhere by himself

When you start coming in more often he can feel himself die of embarrassment when he fails to make interesting conversation

Is very worried about your health though and fusses when you pass out in the mines/street

He gets even more adamant about you taking care of yourself once he's confessed

Way less nervous though!

Looks at you with adoration eyes when you do anything

Tipsy Harvey is a cute Harvey because he starts spilling his guts on how often he thinks of you

Whenever you're not busy with work he appreciates you stopping by the office, just to talk about both of your days

He yaps to everyone about you btw

Doesn't mean to but when someone brings you up he's like "oh yes me and my partner love to-" or "my partner loves-" etc etc

I used to not be a fan but he's such a sweetiepie

Sam

"I just love a guy who plays guitar <3" - u @Sam

That's it

I JEST

Originally he's like "hey come and hang out with me, Sebastian, and Abigail"

Then you start coming over and it's just you both alone

He's not creepy about it, just wants to spend time with you one on one

Loves showing you the songs he works on and if you want he'll show you how to play guitar too!

He's also happy with how well you get along with Jodi, always trying to get you both to bond, it makes him feel nice that you feel like you're apart of the family

Once y'all are together he does sneak you in anytime he gets the chance

He'll text you like "come over" You : I've gotta be up at 6am Him : "PLZPLZPLZPLZ-"

OG golden retriever bf

You both go shopping at Joja at 3am for fun and goof off

Or go run around in the forest taking aesthetically pleasing pintrest photos

Sebastian

You can't tell me he's not an arctic monkeys kinda guy so insert R U Mine? By Arctic Monkeys

It took him time to warm up to you

When he did you became one of the few people he could hang out with after a long day of socializing and not feel drained around

I can see him doing things that aren't always super platonic and thinking he wants to do them because

"Platonically" holding your hand, cuddling, etc

At town events he stands all close to you, complaining about how much he hates it, but showing disappointment when you mention leaving

Everyone's like are y'all dating and he goes NO way too fast

When you both finally ARE together though he's actually much less affectionate and public, but it doubles when you're in the comfort of his basement room

Finds the most joy in keeping you trapped in his bed with him until noon when you say you should be working on your farm

Especially in the colder months, then you can also share his mom's pumpkin soup

He's almost catlike with his affection

Another guy you run around and take aesthetically pleasing pintrest photos with, but his are more grunge esk

"Accidentally" leaves his hoodies at your place but he likes seeing you in em

I imagine that the characters have those closets filled with the same outfit, so when you try and give him his stuff back he goes "nah" and whips out his 100th hoodie

Shane

PACK IT UP SAVIOUR COMPLEX I mean what who said that

After you rescue him from the depths of his depressive alcoholism, he feels guilty for having feelings for you

Part of it is because he's like "fuck do I actually like them or is it just cuz they basically saved my life" and partly because it feels painfully stereotypical

Not a lot changes, though he is a lot more open to you then he is with other people, even with Marnie

Helps out with your chickens when he has free time

Talks to them about his problems and once you almost walked in on him ranting about his feelings for you (bro was shook)

But once he's confessed, well, he's still insecure about some things, but accepts your help with stride

Jealous easily, but tries not to show it

Acts of service kinda guy, so if you need him to run an errand while you're swamped with farm work? He's on it

Pulls up to your farm with a bunch of snacks and a bag full of movies for you to pick from

He sets it up while you take a shower to wash all the grime and dirt off from a days work so you can just come and cozy up on the couch with him

You're also basically besties with Jas, such a sweet girl, always asks you to play jump rope with her

You both go "say no to drugs" to her l o l

Marnie is also now your bestie so even when she's not working you can get stuff from the shop #WIN

I loooooove stardew valley it's so cool so great

Here’s an ask! (For Casey x Alex obviously lol)

You’ve mentioned a couple times Casey tends to be self deprecating. How does Alex support her?

When/how does Alex realize Casey uses the batting cages/gym as an outlet (and takes it too far sometimes)? How does she handle it?

Oh! And while I’m on firsts! How about the first time Alex sees Casey in one of her shirts that say Cabot? (Loved the stealing clothes stuff btw!)

Thank you so much for the ask <333 I LOVE ASKS I LOVE TALKING GRAAHHHHH

This got hella long!!! Warnings for discussion of self harm, self hatred, blah blah blah and also implied sex below.

Have this picture of upset Casey (fittingly for what I ramble borderline incoherently about here) so the reply doesn't seem so short above the divider

It's always difficult for me to write more comforting interactions between the two, because as much as it feels natural to make them comfort each other to a really high degree, I want to keep the characterization provided by the show as closely as possible and thus despite my intrinsic urge to project the way I personally as an author want someone to treat me if I was in the high-stress scenario these two find themselves in, the reality of it is overt comforting probably would not work well on either of them. They're both strong, independent and emotionally resilient women- and the flaws they have oftentimes probably could not be directly addressed or they'd just withdraw and become defensive.

Thus, since Casey slips self-loathing comments into casual conversations, it always comes off more as a wry joke, and that's why other people such an Olivia or Elliot just assume she's poking fun at herself or venting frustration. Alex, too, initially perceives similar, but then she starts registering Casey's 'tells'. The way her hand flexes as though she wants to bite the fingernail on her thumb and has to consciously hold herself back from doing so, the way she refuses to make eye contact with anyone and if she is forcing herself to do so anyway her gaze is very blank because she's not actually looking, the angle of her shoulders and collarbones in relation to her spine- stupidly specific, intricately tiny things in Casey's body language that show, no, she's actually really stressed. When the correlation between these minor actions and Casey's comments jumping to a more frequent pattern emerges, Alex realizes this is actually an issue and although Casey conceals it by jesting she's being dead serious, she does believe she's unworthy of what she has or incapable or whatever else negative Casey believes about herself.

Since noticing it at all used such attention to detail and the actions are so minor they're unexplainable, Alex realizes that if she approached this issue head-on Casey would probably do a wonderful job at gaslighting her into believing she was making up problems, so she doesn't. Instead, she simply begins peppering praise and reassurance throughout daily interactions, enough that Casey realized it had increased but not much that she'd grow suspicious. Little things, like staring at Casey's figure for a little bit extra long so Casey would notice Alex was admiring, making sure to smile down at the legal notes Casey had asked her to review so when Casey studied her face intently while Alex read she'd know Alex was beyond proud of her, or just straight on whispering compliments into Casey's hair when they passed eachother in hallways.

Eventually, she did see Casey's deprecating comments decrease, and instead when Casey was stressed she subconsciously sought out Alex because she knew she'd find gentle praise and reassurance from her when Casey felt as though she was lacking.

I think your second ask is somewhat asking for a continuation of Softball to the Ribs (Kiss it), so I'll just talk about the storyline I would've written had I decided to make a next part (which I won't, all my fics exist solely as one-shots);; Alex finds out because Casey did tell her in the bathroom that it was a softball, she just didn't know the details of how the injury occurred. I think Casey would never tell her, Alex would find out from something like Life360/Find my Phone since it would make sense to me that at some point they start sharing locations due to the nature of their job. Casey vanishes for random hours at a time when she's grappling with heavy caseloads and Alex checks it to find her location as being at the batting cages. The first time she sees it she does nothing, she just makes sure a warm bath is already all set up for her when she comes home and drops by an Apotheke (what the hell is Apotheke in English????? nOt my language) to pick up muscle rub and then pretends she's initiating sex as an excuse to massage it into her. Casey is nonethewiser.

Eventually, though, when Casey has been gone too long or it's happened back to back on multiple days, Alex goes to the batting cages and sort of just sits in the corner with her legal notepad and despite being uncomfortable in the weird sporty setting proceeds to try to work there. Her presence is grounding for Casey and it makes her want to push herself less because she doesn't want Alex to watch her get hurt- and when Alex gets bored of faux scribbling random shit she just starts being the one who controls the batting cage so she can press the button to stop it if she thinks it's going too far.

Self-harm is a very difficult issue and I wrote Casey to be using exercise dependence as a means to do it, and I have a concern with many fics in which a character's romance causes them to suddenly lose interest in what is a destructive coping method, and I think at least in my experience that's unrealistic. Self harm is wildly addictive and Casey is dependant on this to make her feel as though she's coping with stress she otherwise can't, and although Alex would obviously love to step in and pull that feeling out of her, that's just... not how life works, most of the time. If it was something like cutting or burning one self, obviously that's an entirely different story, but where the line between healthy exercise and an overt dependence that leads to self destruction ... that's hard to differentiate at times. What athlete hasn't accidentally gotten injured? The same story could exist in which Casey uses exercise as a healthy method to deal with stress (literally in the show that's what it is.) and the whole thing happened by genuine accident if it wasn't for the fact Casey simultaneously wasn't eating. If her ribs weren't visible in that fic Alex probably wouldn't have known something was seriously wrong. But I wrote Casey as intentionally putting herself in positions in which the risk for it is very high, and not caring for herself after- but how could Alex read Casey's internal dialogue and draw the line somewhere? It's complicated.

Alex focuses, then, on fostering a nurturing, loving environment and accepting every part of Casey as she is.

She can't directly stop Casey from participating in sports but she does ensure Casey eats and sleeps to a healthy degree and if she realizes something like Casey skipping meals more than is normal for people with inconsistent work schedules she'll do something to make sure Casey gets the care she needs.

Eventually, through this environment and Alex's comfort, Casey can build the emotional skill set required to cope with stress adequately - that's the ultimate goal, because even if Alex did somehow twist exercise out of her grasp, there's always the possibility something in their relationship would break and Casey would fall straight back into it. Alex is smart enough to avoid that possibility.

Finally, the first time Alex realized Casey was wearing something of her's was one of the first times the accidental swapping of blazers occurred that I described in the other post. Alex had stopped by Casey's office with food during a lunch break and while they ate Casey extended her arm to reach for something, and Alex realized her name was on the sleeve. Cabot suddenly becomes very bothered and jumps Casey's bones the second they're somewhere more private because holy shit does the idea of Casey being her's and similarly labeled do something for her.

deck of playing card-sized prints I ordered from artscow just came in a couple days ago! (of this piece)

gonna try handing these out at tennocon this year! I might also order another deck or two since I'm pretty happy with this one (though i might make some adjustments if i have the time who knows)

(oh yeah and these prints are secretly just on the backs of regular ass playing cards cause it's cheaper (and maybe a bit gimmicky?) lmao)

I was inspired to go with playing cards partially due to people's suggestions on the original art post, but also because of this small outer wilds nomai print I got randomly from Fangamer alongside my copy of Tunic for switch! I just really like the idea of a smaller print having rounded corners I guess (the artist is Elliot Bouriot btw)

it's very cool I like this outer wilds print a lot :)

idk hopefully it'll be a fun thing to pass around at tennocon, would be cool to try and expand upon the idea in the future though! just might require a lot more work to feel like an actual product if I ever intend on selling this kind of thing lol

[dermiscake]

am back >_<

i'm in a slightly better mood today. a few nice things happened.

the girl that saw my cuts kind of has been talking to me more for the past few days? (btw i decided to refer to her as Jocelyn bc i can't keep using that long ass description everytime i talk abt her.) and Jocelyn actually came up to me and directly asked what the things on my shoulder were. i didn't want to attract much attention so i just said "oh don't worry, they're very old" (they're not.) and she was like "oh"..... yeah, i think she understood. tbh i want to talk to her more aswell, but i'm scared that she'll misunderstand the reason to why i talk to her more if i ever do that. i don't want it to seem like "oh yeah i'm talking to you because you were worried about me and so i have someone that cares about me, not because i care about you back or anything so take ur guard LOL"... i'd rather kms than have anyone misunderstand why i do the things i do, sooo i don't think i'll be talking to her unless she interacts first.

i got called cute. woawh... one of my friends (which i'll refer to as Conan) came up to me and we started talking a little. then just completely out of the blue he petted me and asked me why i looked so cute... and honestly i'm not surprised to have him do that. he's generally a very outgoing & affectionate person both physically and verbally; it just caught me off guard because i was feeling like i looked like absolute shit, was all. (one of my previous posts says it well.) i will propably talk more about Conan, soon. i sometimes get mixed feelings about him but he's a cool guy. a very cool guy... ,,

i helped Elliot buy some tiny statues. ( ´﹀` )⟡˖· she asked me how much money i had with me and i said i didn't know so we counted it together. after counting, she was like "oh nah, nevermind". that confused me a little at first but then i understood that she needed money for something. so i just handed her the money and kind of bullied her into taking the money (lmao). it took me a while to get her to accept it but she eventually did, and she invited me to go to the stand with her!! i did and i couldn't stop smiling bc of how happy she was... tbh Elliot is one of the cutest people i've ever seen in my life, both in appearance and personality. she resembles a marshmallow, i think. she's so AISGUAGAHAVJAVSJ <33<3<333<3/pos

oh and my science teacher rambled in class, again. he's so tired, he needs some rest.

that's it, i think. i love people, i love humans. i still do. i think i will continue to. this is the happiest i've ever felt. i don't know why i'm saying that; it isn't. but yayyy human interaction :-) ♡⸝⸝

thank you for reading！！

REMY LORE REMY LORE REMY LORE

but first a huge thank you to @love-you-fo-rever for helping me make her and develop her lore!! oh and a btw, any art of remy that I use will more than likely come from kat bc I can’t draw lmao

Okay okay okay lore time

Remy was the prototype created right before the CYN drones were made. Her little PN thing is CYR, but she is the only drone of that type due to a bug in her code. Remy cannot ever be fully 100% charged. You know how cell phones have a maximum capacity for their battery? Yeah, so that maximum drops over time, so even if your phone shows it’s 100% charged, if your maximum capacity is (for example) 90% then really ur phone is 90% charged (this is just my understanding of it, this probably isn’t how it actually works oops). It’s basically the reason why phones seem to die faster and faster over time.

So, Remy’s max isn’t 100% (I haven’t decided what it is lol), and she basically has narcolepsy as a result. I also like the idea that the code, which I just keep calling the REM code, was supposed to allow the drones to charge faster/have more energy bc they would be in the drone equivalent of REM sleep. Idk I haven’t worked out all the logistics yet. Anyways, because of the faulty REM code, she also doesn't always sleep through a whole REM cycle, meaning that sometimes she doesn't/can't even recharge to her max. The code couldn’t really be fixed without fucking up everything else and so she was the only version of this drone to be made since they caught the bug very quickly.

This glitch is also why her eyes are different colors. Her eyes were both originally the light blue/teal color, but after her first REM cycle, the glitch took effect and as a result one of her eyes became a darker blue (aka I wanted her to be quirky and different and I also thought it would be fun for that to be the like, tell (for lack of a better word), that she is glitched) Also, when Remy sleeps, her face doesn’t just say “sleep mode” or whatever, it just says REM, hence how she got her name.

She was one of Tessa’s drones. Idk how the Elliot’s got her, maybe the same way they found Cyn? Idk, I haven’t thought that out yet. Anyways, Tessa loves her and thinks it’s silly how Rem will just suddenly fall asleep and loves to like cuddle with her when she does. Her parents have definitely found them curled up together asleep in the most random places. Of course, Tessa names her Remy after seeing her in sleep mode. Tessa’s parent didn’t want to keep Rem, but how could they say no to their precious daughter, I mean she’s even given the drone a name! But since Remy’s glitched, Tessa’s parent don’t really care for her. They only let her stick around because Tessa loves her. They kind of just ignore her. Remy isn’t bothered by this because that means that she tends to go unnoticed and can therefore get away with shit. She has definitely snuck Tessa some treats after bedtime and such. Oh, and she has red hair because Tessa saw her blue eyes/core and was like "red will look so good on you girl" (I get the vibe that Tessa always wanted her drones to look as like stylish as possible)

Remy is chill with all the other drones before everything goes to shit. They all understand that she can't really be of much use due to her being a potential hazard, but they would definitely try to include her when possible. However, she was still able to easily hide away/be forgotten about (for lack of a better term).

Okay so now to the trauma weeeee

Remy was Cyn’s first victim. I imagine that since Remy is typically ignored/hidden in the shadows, nobody really notices she’s gone. She def went missing a little bit before Cyn killed everyone. The dragon wings were the first wing design Cyn tried out (definitely not because I love dragons nope never). But, Cyn didn’t really like them and kept messing around with them therefore damaging the membrane. Remy was tortured, going through constant changes thanks to Cyn. Since she was essentially Cyn’s practice toy, she practically got taken apart and put back together multiple times.

Rem knows she was tortured, but she doesn’t remember much of it. She slowly gets her memories back after the events of the show cause something to trigger and make her remember. She also knows that N doesn't have his memories, and she knows it's because of V somehow, but she doesn't know all the details.

She has the male murder drone legs because she did it to herself. Cyn originally gave her the peg legs, but Remy absolutely hated them. She had a hard time keeping her balance and she would fall a lot more whenever she would randomly fall asleep. So one day, they’re out on a mission or whatever and they stumble upon a dead disassembly drone and Rem’s so fucking done with the peg legs that she literally cuts them off and welds the other legs to her (hence the scars around her legs).

She’s a masochist for sure. She’s also more rebellious since she could get away with a bunch of shit before everything happened. She’s quiet at first, but after the show as she grows closer with everyone (and works through some shit) she breaks out of her shell. I feel like she has some sort of Doberman/German Shepherd/Pitbull energy. She's like very protective over everyone, like V levels of overprotective.

Okay, that's all of the Remy lore for now, there's definitely more I could include but I also kind of want to make those separate posts. I'm literally obsessed with her Kat seriously ate. I'm so excited to start writing out like little scenarios and stuff!!!

[winderlylandchime]

2/2 Brians mom/sister scene is now up ‘OH FUCK YOU BITCH! Sidenote: he looks really fucking good. His life might be falling a part but he still looks good. Respect. Oh no, his stupid mom. Oh fuck you too. What kind of family is this? This is horrible, no wonder he is fucked up on drugs and alcohol and fucking everyon- actually nevermind that last one could just be a preference, fuck, this man would’ve died in 2020 lockdown. Wait, I’m getting distracted. Oh no this is hurting me. *pauses tv* DID YOU SEE THAT HESITATION! You could tell he was about to tell her off but he had to fully push himself to say fuck you to her because he’s still just a little kid inside. I will start a riot for him. And him only. Oh and my boy Elliot. This guy did not have to act this much in this scene because this all HURT’ (i have no clue who Elliot is btw when i asked he just went ‘oh you know *smacked his fist to his chest* my boy’) ‘SEE TED AND BRIAN HAVE POTENTIAL! Oh teddy, he is in love how do you not know!’ He is now sitting with crossed fingers and looking up in the ceiling ‘please no Ethan, please no Ethan. OH MY GOD! OH MY! Ha, a friend of his uncles..good one Justin, don’t you mean the love of his life? DID THE KID JUST SAY THE F BOMB AGAIN?! PUNCH HIM JUSTIN. HE WOULDVE PAYED HIM! SEE! EVEN NOW HE KNOWS THAT BRIAN IS THE BEST. *pauses tv again* JUSTIN WENT TO GET THE KID TO ADMIT HES LYING?! How are you gonna do that and then look me in the face and say you don’t care for him? HOW DARE HE WEAR HIS BRACELET! Justin, BEAT HIS ASS! It is your time to start throwing punches!’ ‘JUSTIN! CARL! DEBBIE!!! HE SAW THE BRACELET AND IMMEDIATELY WENT TO CARL!!! Of course Justin would know it has Brian’s initials and where he bought it! Totally normal. EXACTLY DEBBIE SHAME ON THEM! Now say that to his mom next! Aw he gave Justin the bracelet, i have never in my life cared this much about a bracelet’ ‘oh for fucks sake they’re actually gonna have a kid together? SPERM BANK! The kid can always find out who the dad is later in life. This is a recipe for disaster’ ‘HE IS SHOOTING UP! OH MY GOD DUDE IS PUTTING DRUGS IN HIS TUSHY!’ Anyway thee Britin scene is up! ‘AHHHHHH he took the bracelet back to him! LOOK HOW BRIAN IS LOOKING AT HIM! HE MISSES HIM! HE LOVES HIM. Makes me wonder how many times Justin tied up the bracelet for him *pauses tv and starts waving his hands around Britin* you see this? DO. YOU. SEE. THIS? THAT! Is called tension. *says it so that he basically pronounces every letter* SEXUAL TENSION! *hits play* They are about to fuck! Brian is gonna slam him into that wall and they are gon- BRIAN NO! WHY WOULD YOU REMIND HIM OF THE EXISTENCE OF THE ONE PERSON NOBODY WANTS TO BE REMINDED OF?! Even Justin looked disappointed at the reminder! This is pure bullsh- did he just toss the bracelet? *rewinds* HE DID! LOOK *rewinds it again while point at the tv* so hold the fuck up. You’re telling me, he stood there and let Justin tie a bracelet on his wrist only for him to take it off and toss it the second Blondie left and i’m supposed to pretend that the reason for that is not just so that he could feel his Blondies touch? Just so that he could have him for one more second? BUT WHY TAKE IT OFF? Is he mad that he reminded him of *makes a face like he just smelled rotten eggs* him? Or is he just not feeling it right now?’ Now usually he would go outside after an episode but he is on a time crunch so he immediately went to ep 5. He has physical therapy today and I’m honestly scared that it was a bad idea to watch this before he went.

He’s still just a little kid inside. I will start a riot for him. I am sobbing right now, he totally gets Brian.

I have never in my life cared this much about a bracelet. LOL so true.

DUDE IS PUTTING DRUGS IN HIS TUSHY. DYINGGGGGGG.

The sexual tension of that scene is so thick it can only be cut with a knife.

i’m supposed to pretend that the reason for that is not just so that he could feel his Blondies touch - MMHMM. EXACTLY.

(Saying a prayer for his PT…)

Teehee human/past design of Pix and also her friend (which isn't great but shhh)

Pix! Their last name's Elliot now :3 basically a HUGE tech nerd that works at an electronics store at a mall. About 18-19, fresh out of highschool

And Eli! Last name Anderson! Don't let his looks fool you- he is in fact like 17! A grade below Pix! Just short and looks itty (i tried to make him actually look somewhat teen but also the drawing generally turned out eh so. :p). I realized he's kinda an orange cat, so that's something. Friends w Pix and a regular at the electronics store they work at! (Which is kinda how they became friends lol)

(i have so much lore for Pix oh my goshhdhsbshajjs ask me about my characters im rotating in my brain i need to yap)

Pix ask blog coming soon hopefully btw (aka whenever i get around to making it)

[arataka-reigen]

i would love to know your ranking of all the sdv chars

Oh that's difficult tbh. Everytime I start a new save my favorite characters change lol.

My top non romanceable characters are Robin, Caroline, the Wizard, Willy, Linus and Gus. Love them all so much. I always try to befriend the wizard early but he is such a bitch to befriend, but I just like his vibes and the stupid little mysterious way he talks. He is just a divorced little guy who fumbled a bad bitch smh. Robin and Linus... no explanation needed tbh. Caroline....... god I want to marry her and take her away from Pierre. Gus wins me because of that scene with Linus where he tells him he doesn't want anyone in town to go hungry. And willy,,, i just like fishing next to him tbh.

I LOVE JAS AND VINCENT BTW. Love child characters, I wish there were more heart events with them.

As for the bachelors and bachelorettes... i love so many of them it's hard to rate them... Elliot is currently my favorite, he is so Howl coded. My usual favorite is Leah (and the one I married more times than any other).

I really like Penny, Abigail and Maru in a big sister way, I want to help them chase their dreams kinda way, I want to see them grow and flourish kinda way (that being said I have married Abigail before because I also like her like that sometimes).

Shane is great, though i used a mod to give him a new routine and change some stuff in the later game (after you have enough hearts with him) because the actual game just kept his old bad habits.

KROBUS IS BELOVED, but he takes so long to show up I never managed to get him as a roommate tbh, I think I'll try it in my current save.

I never got more than 2 hearts with Alex, but i've seen the gameplay of Alex with a male farmer and bro... that shit is beautiful.

My first love in sdv was Haley and I still love her so much even tho I never married her. Toxic yuri. I need her bad.

And I can't wait to meet Leo because I never managed to go to Ginger Island 😭 so idk anything abt that

Daredevil season 2, episode 3 thoughts:

I'm starting to see why Frank Castle is the perfect antagonist for Matt in this season. Having Fisk as the villain in the first season made a perfect foil to him because they both loved Hell's Kitchen and wanted to make it better, and both had issues with letting rage take over them and make them brutal, but their methods of bringing about change and the limits to what they were willing to do were so diametrically opposed to each other, their clash was inevitable. Similarly, Frank Castle is doing much of the same things Matt is doing, just going further and doing it in a way indicative of how he's learned the world works. While Matt's view of fighting was framed by his father's boxing, which is a sport and not supposed to ever be lethal, Frank Castle's worldview has been shaped by being a soldier, where you have to make sure you're efficiently and effectively killing people so they won't get back up and cause problems later.

Their conversation on the roof is so compelling and interesting, and you can bet I'll be going back to watch it again many times. You know, I think they actually both have each other pegged, and this is the first time they've even spoken to each other. That's pretty rare to see, but kind of...refreshing? Some people might say you should hold off on that sort of thing until you get closer to the end of the story or there won't be enough suspense or conflict or whatever, but this scene proves that's not true. I'm even more hooked than I was before, because both of them have some really valid points and I want to see how it will all shake out. (Like, obviously Matt's going to win in the end, but how will Frank Castle and the things he says to Matt affect him going forward?)

I wasn't expecting Karen to go after Elliot James (I had to go look up his name, lol) and persuade him to help them, nor was I expecting him to see eye-to-eye with her, but I like it! I've never really bothered to Sort the Daredevil characters, but now that I think about it, Karen is definitely a Slytherin Secondary, with the way she manipulates and persuades people. (I don't mean that in a negative way, btw.) Not sure about her primary; I'll have to think about that some more. (And it would probably help to know the backstory we never learned in season 1.)

I've spent all of five seconds thinking about this, but going with my gut, I think Matt is a Gryffindor/Ravenclaw and Foggy is a Gryffindor/Hufflepuff? Or he might be a double Hufflepuff.

Aw, Grotto died :( I mean, I kind of expected it, but still....

I LOVE FOGGY OH MY GOODNESS! 8D There he goes again, throwing his legal weight around, and it's kick-butt every time! Claire is right; he really is good with people - not just because of his naturally friendly and disarming demeanor, but also because he truly cares about people and knows how to use his expertise to reach them in a way they'll respond to.

Okay, I don't think anything can really top the famous hallway fight from season 1, but all of the fights so far have been good, and the one at the end of this episode, starting in the hallway and moving into the stairwell, was particularly spectacular. Some of the Daredevil fights kind of remind me of the Bourne movies, though I haven't seen them in ages and don't really remember many details. I just remember they were by far the best and most realistic fight scenes I'd ever seen at that point.

[delirium-reflection]

your art is just perfect, whether intentional or not it looks like a bishop's hook which was definitely the style at the time in new york.

we are quite stuck calling it headcanon even if it's just canon. but we see your point 😅 !

• calling elliot a softy is funny to us. but yes, he's pretty tsundere so we suppose it fits. but he has a reputation to defend (like victor, because it totally runs in the family). we can see this being where victor learned to dodge his feelings so well...

• oh the poetry! we have a weakness for poetry beware 😖

• as for the gallows we imagine he likes the morbid imagery first off. the keeper stings up the animals as a warning to other animals to keep in line. and generally speaking elliot doesn't want to behave so he'd feel more kinship with the hung animals. a sort of rebellion thing. (the poet was really relaying a story his daughter[?] told him about a grounds keeper and was fascinated by the casual cruety of it, I think)

• leda and the swan. maybe loss of control (in leda's case bodily autonomy) at the hands of someone more powerful (even in disguise). but the last stanza is questioning that maybe leda gained her own power/knowledge siphoned off from zeus and maybe (kind of) became more powerful because of it. (so daddy issues for elliot I guess)

• kidnapping for ransom. yes because of being disowned, you're spot on there. he'd kidnap some rich guy's son or daughter for random and think he was doing them a favor. "giving them a dose of the real world" but let's be serious he'd be doing it out of bitterness. set the random money steep and taunt his victims if/when their parents didn't pay.

• ngl elliot is on the dumb side in some regards. victor probably realised this about age 15 and kind of realised he could manipulate elliot's decisions and plans subtly. (kind of like vox does to val.) hell, victor might have saved his brother from jail time by talking him away from some of his worst schemes lol

in our head we picture victor taking elliot to the pharmacy for a soda as a distraction. getting him a nice lithium water or soda. "you don't really want to rob an armored bank truck, el. you're just thirsty."

• as for lux/elliot fighting alastor and valentino it'd be a mess for sure. it is hard for us to say but we think val might be more reserved about fighting elliot because of not wanting to piss off his business partner/boyfriend. but he'd probably fight him anyway until vox came to break it up.

(edit: that's not to say we think val would pull his punches. but that he'd be more confused to why it was happening in the first place)

alastor would be like: "oh look it's another emotionally constipated idiot with electric powers yelling obscenities at me. guess I'll taunt him until he implodes like the other one."

(it's hard to say how the fight would end mostly because alastor would only end it on his own advantage. strike a deal maybe?)

• flirting with mimzy (aka molly) would happen instantly upon meeting her. we could see him throwing out some cheesy line like: "hey, darling, have you ever tried pole sitting because I've got the perfect place for you to practice." and point to his head.

(pole sitting was a pastime popular in the 20s, btw it reminds us of planking. people sat on top of poles for hours and days to beat each other's records)

we don't know if mimzy would find it charming, corny or creepy. but he'd keep it up for as long as she allowed especially if he thought he'd get some attention.

they could cause trouble for the hotel and hell in general together. vox and al could trauma bond over it.

our silly useless hazbin-oc headcanons for elliot/lux

@herringherringbones we love your artwork both of victor and are kind of blown away by your version of elliot! (so many! he's so perfect! is that a bishop's crook lamppost we see??)

we too confess we spent more time than we originally meant to thinking about elliot as a character. originally he was supposed to be just a throw away meant to give poor victor a reason to leave home. so without further ado we (sheepishly) present a list of random headcanons we have.

• in the great war he was a sharpshooter (sniper) trained in france

• fluent in french and laughably terrible at german

• initially thought of victor as just a tool for revenge but eventually became fond and even possessive of him

• taught victor a variety of skills over the years, mostly to aid him with his crimes, such as driving, lockpicking, pickpocketing, and marksmanship

• easily distracted by blood

• loves poetry ✨️ the gallows by edward thomas / leda and the swan w.b. yates ✨️

• bisexual (but due to the mental gymnastics of 1900's culture he considers himself 💯% straight.)

•favorite crime is kidnapping the rich for ransom

• technophile

• bought victor his first typewriter

• hired thugs, at least once, to intimidate/beat up rival newspaper writers that "bullied" victor

• would vehemently deny any involvement in ⬆️

• when teen!victor began to ask questions about the "birds and bees" elliot panicked, explained very things badly, then took vic to a brothel and paid one of the women to "teach" victor

• (the woman probably took victor aside and just gave him a basic sex ed course and sent him back to elliot. neither of them spoke about it again)

• hellverse!elliot goes by the name lux

• hits his head on things frequently

• probably continued doing petty crime even in hell. maybe formed a small gang but would lack in motivation to elevate himself like vox

• would hate alastor (and valentino) with a passion

• would fight them - even if it wasn't a good idea

• wouldn't care about violette, would be too interested in her cell phone

• probably would find mimsy attractive

I love my horse Koenig (named after Lt. Koenig from Youjo Senki) and my baby dinosaur Barney. ♡

Oh, my chicken Oikawa is there, too. lol

collection of nights doodles i did on my mocks to kill time that i forgot to post earlier ....

Man, Retrace LXI was Vincent's chapter!

hype, hype, all through I was cheering for him: you go, little murder funky rat boy!

after more than 3 arcs of stepping in at the last moment to reap the reward, he is finally stepping out on the center stage lol

it's like he is the sole executioner in this ring!

look at this angle tho, he looks so dangerous from up here like this while Duke Nightray, who is facing him, has no idea what he is up against--

kicking ass, taking names heads lmao

my favorite expressions of his in this chapter—

the author really worked a lot on his character to make me go from I-can't-stand-him-at-all to okay-I-might-be-warming-to-him to oh-I-am-cheering-for-him-now

but what really sold his character to me were not all those action scenes from this chapter but this scene btw:

when he says he liked Elliot the most because it was only because of him Gil was able to smile in the Nightray household,

when he says Elliot was the only one that kept the honor of the Nightrays up until the end,

when he kneels down to listen to Elliot's last words and promises him to pass them on to Leo

Vincent keeps saying his life and his existence must be of no use to anyone and that he can never be good but in such split moments, we do get a glimpse of his good nature that might have manifested more in him had only he been nurtured in a better environment and not surrounded by literal snakes right from a young age. here too, and in the scene from Retrace 54 with Ada, where he subconsciously, automatically calls for Echo when he sees someone was about to attack Ada from behind.

I just hope Leo doesn't actually go through with the request Vince has made of him because one, Jack isn't what he thinks he is and two, Gil might have wanted to up and leave him several times, but he didn't because he is all he has in this world. I don't think Vincent really understands Gil well so I would rather he talk it out at least once with his older brother before he gives in to such a drastic decision. Vince is trying to play the game all by himself now without taking into account other factors too. He blames himself solely for the Tragedy of Sablier when in fact, he was only a child whose naivety and power of Misfortune was made use of by traitors.
