Post-Game Rune Factory 5 Headcanons

When Hina’s old enough to take on more adult responsibilities at the general store, Lucy (who was working there prior) goes to work at the bathhouse instead and improves the spa side of things with the knowledge Simone taught her about medicine.

After Beatrice decides to live in Rigbarth permanently, she asks Randolph and Yuki to let her work at the bakery. Priscilla (who was working there prior) happily lets Beatrice take the job so she can pursue her own dream.

Priscilla’s dream is to start a library/used book store that also carries some cute notebooks and stationary supplies. Building it right next to the bakery, she uses her organizational skills to recommend great books for everyone, but her favorites are still romance books (same as Beatrice, a frequent visitor and donor). Priscilla is successful enough that she needs a part-time employee.

Cecil decides it’s time for him to start a side job and begins working at the library as the self-appointed mystery book expert. When the front desk is slow and there isn’t much to shelve, he works on research for Terry’s detective agency.

Ryker, Priscilla, and Ludmila from Rune Factory 5!

Elsje and priscilla! Elsje is a pegasus who would rather be napping on a cloud somewhere than be dealing with customers while priscilla is a clumsy earth pony who tries her best but sometimes wishes she had wings like her sister or a horn with magic so that she could have some advantages in life and be braver

I was debating on whether or not i should make priscilla a unicorn but I ultimately decided against it cause i thought her being an earth pony fit her character better thematically lol

Summary: After having some hot chocolate at a coffee shop, Priscilla waits for the bus back to her dorm room, when she realizes she forgot her umbrella. Luckily, someone has her covered.

Start Author’s Note: This is a Coffee Shop AU in a modern-day setting.

Gotcha Covered

-Priscilla-

It was cold and rainy – basically, the opposite kind of day that Priscilla typically enjoyed.

That was the reason she had decided to go to The Silo today. She’d been hounded by her best friend Lucy about visiting the coffee shop. The hyperactive girl hardly needed the additional caffeine in her diet, but Lucy still visited the place almost daily, despite it being somewhat out of the way.

Even though there were plenty of similar establishments near their university that Priscilla herself had frequented, Lucy swore that The Silo had the best of everything. Especially their hot chocolate.

Priscilla had a severe sweet-tooth, which some would say bordered on obsession. Priscilla thought it odd to ride the bus from their dorm to visit The Silo, only to have to ride back to make it to their first class in the morning. Nonetheless, her friend’s persistence eventually won out, and Priscilla decided to try the place out.

“Brr! It’s so chilly today.” Priscilla shuffled over to the bus stop, eyeing the bench. Rubbing her hands together and blowing on them, she hurried over and claimed a seat. She pulled her phone out of her coat pocket and texted Lucy that she was on her way back. A few moments later, she received a confirmation from her roommate, saying that she’d meet Priscilla at the bus stop in front of their dorm.

Priscilla pocketed her phone quickly, not wanting the cold droplets to collect on the screen. When Lucy had finally convinced her to go, the roommate had quickly realized that she had forgotten to finish up a homework assignment that was due today. Priscilla wasn’t surprised, but she did think it odd that Lucy had insisted that she go to The Silo without her.

Priscilla had assured her friend that she could wait, but with the back and forth of transportation, it would most likely make them either late to class, or feel rushed at The Silo, which wasn’t the first-time experience Lucy wanted her to have.

Which was why Priscilla sat on the bench alone, hoping that the bus would arrive sooner rather than later. She had checked the time on her phone earlier, and as long as the bus arrived when it was scheduled to, she shouldn’t have any problem making it to class.

Really feeling the rain, which was falling at an increasingly faster rate, Priscilla rummaged through her purse, feeling for her umbrella. She felt everything else – wallet, room key, make-up, a calculator for her math classes – but not her umbrella.

“Drat!” she cursed to herself. She must have left it at The Silo. She’d been so distracted making it to the bus stop in time that she must’ve forgotten it on the table.

She weighed her options. She would probably have enough time to run back and fetch it, but what if the bus happened to be early? If she missed this one, she would definitely be late, which, though not a big deal for many, was a big deal for her. She would rather die than have to feel the entire class’s eyes on her as she slowly slinked over to her seat. Her professor was nice, but they tended to make jokes, so she was sure that they’d make a comment at her expense.

So, she decided to just wait it out. Hopefully, The Silo would hold onto it for her, and she could come back tomorrow with Lucy to pick it up.

The rain was starting to soak into her hair, the pink strands sticking to her face. As she breathed more heat onto her hands, she noticed that the breath itself was visible. It was late autumn, which was why she was wearing a coat. However, it didn’t have a hood, so she was unable to cover her head, which was starting to get uncomfortably damp.

“Whew! I made it.” The sudden voice caused Priscilla to jump and look up towards to source. All she saw was pink.

“Um, hello?”

The stranger must have realized that Priscilla couldn’t seem them past the umbrella. “Oh! Sorry about that! I was just so excited that I caught up to you.” The stranger’s voice was bright and warm, the complete opposite of the current weather. They moved the umbrella slightly so that they could sit next to her, both of them being protected from the rain.

“C-Caught up to me?” Had this person been stalking her? She hadn’t felt anyone’s eyes on her, but she had been somewhat distracted making it back to the bus stop. She met the stranger’s eyes, which were a vibrant green.

“Yeah! I mean, Scarlett noticed that you had forgotten your umbrella at The Silo, so I ran over to catch up to you. I guessed you were headed for the bus, and turns out I was right! Lucky, huh?” The stranger laughed, and now that Priscilla realized where this person was from, she calmed down a bit.

She looked closer at the stranger, and took in the rest of her. Her hair was blonde, and was partially covered by a pink cap that was so dark, some might consider it red. She had a matching apron, with a white t-shirt and black pants. Definitely a barista.

“Thank you very much for… returning my umbrella.” Priscilla reached out a hand to take it so that the other woman could leave, but the barista moved her hand away before she could.

“Of course! But please, let me hold it for you, at least until your bus comes.” The woman smiled at her. It was so bright and cheerful that Priscilla couldn’t help smiling back.

“Okay. Thank you.”

“Ah, I should probably introduce myself.” The woman laid her free hand on her chest. “I’m Alice! I’m a barista at The Silo. Scarlett is my coworker, and she was the one who served you.”

Ah. So that’s who this Scarlett was. She remembered a woman with serious red eyes and light blue hair tied back into a ponytail. Her uniform had been the same as Alice’s, though instead of pink, it had been green. Maybe to denote a rank or seniority?

“She had her hands full, so she ordered– er, told me to get this back to you.” Alice chuckled, her cheeks a light pink.

“Well, Alice, thank you for taking the time to deliver this to me. I’m very grateful.” She felt like she was saying ‘thank you’ too much, but she couldn’t think of what else to say. Lucy was usually by her side, and she tended to be the active communicator either between themselves or with other people.

Alice nodded. Her blush deepened as she looked up and down at Priscilla, her green eyes roaming. Priscilla felt her own face redden as the two said nothing.

The barista finally met her gaze once more, and her smile widened. “Tell me if I’m barking up the wrong tree here, but you’re really pretty. Especially with that rainswept look you’ve got going on.”

Oh! So that’s why she’d been staring. To be honest, Priscilla herself had been staring a bit, but she had thought it was just because this woman was so energetic, that it was hard to look away.

Maybe it had been for another reason?

 “Th-Thank you. You’re… pretty too.” Priscilla looked away. Had the bus shown up yet?

She heard Alice laugh. “Why thank you! I try.” Priscilla looked back. “Though, it’s hard to look attractive when I’m wearing a barista uniform.”

“N-Nonsense, you look attractive!” Realizing what she had just said, Priscilla’s eyes widened. “I-I mean, you look pretty regardless of what you’re wearing.”

Priscilla sat there, wishing that the bus would not only arrive, but run her over after such a blatant verbal misstep. Alice was just being nice, a barista serving her customer, but Priscilla had been so flattered that she’d said too much.

Alice watched her, her smile melting into one of… contentment? Good, maybe she hadn’t really noticed how she’d said she was attractive. Maybe she’d thought it was just reiterating that the barista uniform didn’t detract from her appearance, rather than an admittance of… something more.

“Hey, don’t worry so much. I asked if I was barking up the wrong tree for a reason.” Alice gently placed her free hand on Priscilla’s, rubbing her thumb across the backs of her fingers. “I think you’re attractive too. I should have been more straightforward. My uh… ‘game’ could use some work, or so I’ve been told.” Her voice had turned to an annoyed mutter at the end. Huh. Sounds like her friends had teased her about it.

The feel of a warm hand on hers, as well as Alice’s self-deprecating response, made Priscilla’s chest flutter in a bubbly sort of way. Before she knew it, she was giggling. “Your ‘game’ seems perfectly adequate to me. I’m just… not great around people, so I find it hard to pick up cues sometimes.”

“I see. Well, that’s good. I knew you had to have some sort of flaw, since you’re so beautiful and kind. It wouldn’t be fair to have it all!” Alice laughed, squeezing her hand.

“You seem to be very unfair if that’s the case,” Priscilla responded. She surprised herself with how smooth that had come out.

Alice’s eyes widened. “Pretty, kind, and flirty? I think I just hit the jackpot!” She moved her hand off of Priscilla’s, and reached into her apron pocket. She pulled out her phone and unlocked it. “If it’s not too much to ask, could I get your number? I’d love to talk with you more, maybe over a cup of…?”

“Hot chocolate.” Priscilla filled in the blank for her. A small smile formed on her face. “Sure.” She reached out and took Alice’s phone, entering her contact information into it.

She handed it back, and saw Alice’s eyes scan over the screen. “Priscilla…” she sounded out the name. She almost purred it, and Priscilla felt her heartbeat quicken slightly. “I’ll remember that.”

The two stared at each other, until Priscilla noticed Alice look over her head. “Great timing!” Priscilla turned her gaze towards what Alice was staring at, and saw that the bus was slowly pulling up to the curb.

Alice handed Priscilla her umbrella. “I’ll text you later, ‘kay?” She winked.

Priscilla swallowed thickly, practically forcing a response out of her throat. “O-Okay.”

She stood up, closing the umbrella as she walked up to the bus, its doors slowly opening. As she climbed the steps and got situated into a seat, she looked out the window to see Alice looking at her. The barista waved, and Priscilla gave a small wave back.

As the bus drove away from the curb, Priscilla watched as Alice turned and made her way back to, presumably, The Silo.

Sighing contentedly, Priscilla leaned back into her seat, and closed her eyes.

End Author’s Note: I haven’t really written a character that just comes out and says they’re attracted to someone, so this was fun to write. Hope you enjoyed!

Rigbarth has a lot of sibling pairs

Too bad they're not all datable characters

[goineedsleep]

I just tried warping to the depths of Belpha Ruins. Priscilla went “THAT PLACE SCARES THE SHIT OUT OF ME” and I can’t go to Belpha Ruins Depths B5 with her in my party! That is very nice attention to detail, but I’m grinding for items and she is one of three people in Rigbarth who I gave the equipment for it

goddamn it, woman

[kitsquared]

Shut up I still can't believe this is dialogue lol I love this

(Dw hun I'm not trying to steal your gf)

[teefa85]

As I said yesterday, gonna run over my basic opinions on the marriage candidates. VERY subject to change after seeing how they interact with the protagonists in-game. Just some first impressions.

Note, not talking much on the protagonists, even though you can romance the other. They're similar enough, though from the livestream their VAs hinted that there are differences in how they carry themselves. Though I will say, the fact that they're childhood friends but are shown opposed to each other despite having the same goal has me interested. Does the one you don't choose get possessed by evil, seeing as I've seen both riding the white dragon and both riding the black dragon shown attacking what I assume is Spring Village in the latest trailer?

Girls

Iroha very much makes me think of the Japanese version of the "standard village girl" character ala Mist or Priscilla. Though since she was joking about her dango skills getting stronger as a level up quote in the livestream, wonder if she'll have an obsession with making good snacks like Mist had her turnip obsession. Dunno...none of the "standard village girl" characters were as off the wall as Mist.

Hina...wow! She sure grew up! Love the number of people freaking out over her being a romance option...how soon do we all forget Cecilia? Then again, nobody was groaning about not being able to mack on Cecilia's father figure the way they were with Hina's biological mother. Probably not gonna romance her since her uncle WAS on my shortlist back in RF5, but not gonna complain about it either. That being said, love some of the details in her design that act as callbacks. From wearing a SEED outfit (maybe that's why she "claims" to be an archeologist...it's cover for a mission) to having some of her mother's bells as decorations. And since they showed some of the scenes with her in the livestream, it's cute how she refers to Ares/Alice as her "childhood hero."

It's gonna be a bit hard to get used to Ulalaka as a romanization since my one good friend and I watched a bit of Hero Academia together pre-pandemic. Ah...the old L/R choice in romanization! Wonder if she's got a fun party side to her since she's a goddess of spring and merriment?

Kinda think it cute for the summer goddess to be named Matsuri since, while it means festival in general, there are a lot of them in summer. Seems like a character that'll be fun to be around.

Wonder what craziness Kanata's "flights of fancy" will get us into in her events. And why was my first thought "what happens if Yukari and Yuyuko have a love child?" Especially considering she's the gods' official representative.

Clarice's military seems to be opposed to us, at least at first. We haven't gotten an antagonist marriage candidate since Lynette. Unless you count Doug, but he was more manipulated by the actual baddies. Wonder where they'll go with this. But from the one shot of her and Kaguya on a picnic, it does appear she's got a sweet smile under her stoic exterior.

I'd have more to say on Pilika other than if the DLC is just getting to marry the two candidates it probably wouldn't interest me. But giving her the same name as the little girl traumatized by Luca Blight in Suikoden just sends my mind into weird places...

Guys

Murasame might get some good mileage in my party since he's probably a good fighter. Don't usually date the meatheads but do find them funny. So I'd want to at least do his events. Who knows? He might surprise me.

Mauro is adorable! In a little brother way. Since he was calling "Gratzie" in the livestream (pointed out by the commentators even), wonder if he's gonna sprinkle in multiple gratuitous Italian phrases. He does own an airship and is a world traveler.

Kurama, besides the obvious YuYuHakusho jokes (despite not being anything like that Kurama), is a gamer. I envision fanart of him playing Subaru and/or Kaguya in some sort of video game will be made at some point. Or even another character he may end up having a humorous interaction with in an event!

Fubuki...so adorable! I like the sweet ones. And Water-based characters. And Winter areas. And boys with animal ears and tails. Was...he tailor made to hold my interest or something?

I wonder if we'll get to see under Kai's mask if we romance him. At least if we go all the way and marry him. If not, I am sure there will be enough jokes about what he really looks like underneath online.

Ikaruga's design's pretty neat. Love magic users so I'm curious to see how he'll perform in battle. And if our goals will clash with the capital's armies just like we are with whomever sent Clarice.

Cuilang better give me some cool mechanical thing. From what I've heard, the DLC love interests do have a role in the story and its just their romances that are locked behind it. So if he works with machines, I'd hope getting something from him, even if it breaks in five minutes because...games, is a quest.

Currently my shortlist is Fubuki (for the adorable), Kurama (I do like the smart ones too), and Ikaruga (since I like mages). Or romancing Subaru to see their story come full circle. Though probably not if he's as horribly late to start as Doug or Ludmila were...

ok happy wip wmonday this is mostly rune factory ft. one (1) romijuli. most of these did not escape the sketch phase (and the two that did... did not get far, as pictured) but they're all things i had intent to complete at some point.

commentary is below the cut if anyone is curious about my thoughts on anything i've drawn here

for piece commentary..... well first off i also had a shara/sofia sketch that got corrupted bc sai loves doing that at random and it's part of why i want to move away from using it :-( second off

(drops to my knees) PLEASEP PLEASE PLEASE.... CONSIDER PIA/RAVEN..... PLEEEEEEEASE oh the things i could say about those two regarding their own isolation / alienation due to being nonhuman and how despite the fact they've both found a place for themselves they still feel Othered and Lonely at the core. i think they could work on that together once raven gets out of her shell a little bit. the meeting of sea and sky. fire and water. please understand. (the one w raven in bird form is actually even based on the caelum et ocean story set from love nikki bc it made me think of them LOL)

dolce/forte is also like... please consider them. there's something really funny about the knight who's afraid of ghosts and the ghost whisperer. but i also think they have really compatible personalities and forte's generally headstrong nature could go well with dolce's quieter way of doing things. i think dolce would find flustering her funny. but not in like... a harassing way. just in a way where she knows how to make her blush a little bit. i like them

romijuli..... well you see (i open my mouth and begin screaming) (i do not stop screaming) (if you listen closely enough you can detect a garbled string of sounds that loosely translates to 'READ PERFORMANCE')

for the 5 doodles.... priscilla ended up being my favourite rf5 girl to my immense surprise LOL so i developed a habit of sketching her a lot in 2022. fat priscilla. please understand. reblog. i also really liked priscilla/lucy at first bc they're like... obvious, and while my interest in them waned for various reasons (one being a lamentation that they'd become The One Femslash Pairing^tm of the game where people don't really consider anything else bc they have that one...) i still like that doodle.

and lastly. ray and alicia r my favourite sibling steup in all of rf and i think they're both transgender. i hope this helps. (idk solidly what direction i see ray as trans in but whatever the case. ray is not cis to me. love and light)
