Mousey, I'm sure you've done the reaction of the vanilla and expanded spouses to the farmer's curse from Mr. Qi, but how about the rsv spouses? I'd be curious to see what they'd do about it ~~especially you know who *wink wink nudge nudge*~~ Also ngl I've been trying to come up with more silly ships with the vanilla and mod characters and having a blast in my mind. I've been throwing in Isaac, Jadu, Camilla, and Alesia there too for good measure because I think Isaac especially would suffer with certain characters 😂 istg it's like I'm a dog and he's my chewing toy

Hehee, I wouldn't mind hearing what other funny ships you have in mind 👀👀👀

Sorry for a long reply, it turned out WAY more than I had planned. Anyway, enjoy some headcanon, Lotus! And have a great day! 💕

RSV spouses react to the Qi fruit:

_________________________________________

Ian had been standing still for about two minutes now, keeping his eyes on the strange blue fruit that was ripening in the Farmer's seedbed. Because he could have sworn that the fruit winked at him.... with 'glasses'! And the handyman thought he'd seen it again. But at the third minute, Ian gave up and reckoned he was just wasting time. "I really don't understand anything about farming," Ian told Farmer, kissed them, and went to work.

Daia isn't the type to be surprised by strange magical fruits, flowers and berries. The Ridge Forest alone is filled with interesting plants with unusual properties. But this 'Qi' fruit... Hmph, even she hadn't seen anything like it. Being around this smirking blue fruit makes the ninja feel a tingling sensation on her skin - a sure sign that magic is involved. Oh, she can't wait to ask her dear Farmer to give her the fruit to examine, because she's so curious about it! She wondered if it would interest her Lady too...

"Wow... I knew you are a true professional at farming, hon, but to do something like this..." Honestly, Jeric was delighted at what his partner had grown and horrified at what his partner had grown. Because on the one hand - fruit with a face and sunglasses, that's awesome! And on the other hand.... why? He certainly wouldn't have imagined something like this on his own little farm in Ridgeside Village. And it's unlikely he had the knowledge to grow something like this. "....So, what does it taste like?"

Bryle was ashamed to admit it, but the first thing he did when he stepped onto the farmhouse porch was reflexively draw his service weapon and prepare to defend himself. Because the Governor's slightly sleepy bodyguard mistook the blue-faced crops in sunglasses for invaders or even dark spirits. Having already recovered from his shock and seeing the calm Farmer watering this very crop, Bryle felt that by asking what it was, he would get more questions than answers. So he was like: "Nope, not today" and went back to the farmhouse.

When some time ago Irene had only seen the sprouts with the not yet formed blue fruit, she was even intrigued to see what kind of 'unusual fruit' Farmer had planted and what the crop would taste like. Sweet, or maybe with sour notes? Only when she got the ripe fruit on the kitchen table, the Amethyne's personal chef was no longer so enthusiastic. This... fruits looks like a head and was looking at her. Irene's afraid to even touch the 'Qi' fruit, much less taste it. Her Madame would definitely not want such an.... exotic crop for dinner.

Sean decided it would be a hilarious to wreak havoc in the local social media groups with this fruit. So, with Farmer's permission, he took a picture of the ripened 'Qi fruit', posted the picture to social media without any description, and waited. An hour and a half in and Sean and Farmer were dying of laughter reading people's reactions, all sorts of conspiracy about the harvest and even memes (lol). He was also hoping someone would leave a comment about what the fruit was, because Farmer's explanation of "blue fruit from blue seeds from a blue man" wasn't a very clear answer.

"Alissa, my dear. What is this?" Alissa can't give a clear answer to her mother when she shows her the unusual fruit. It seems to Alissa that her dear spouse Farmer themself does not know the answer to this question. The girl was utterly perplexed, and neither her own knowledge of farming, nor a single book from the library about crops, helped her to find the answer. She hoped that Farmer had not used something harmful to grow this fruit...

"What's this abomination growing in your garden? Why is there foreign magic coming from that thing?" Jio is in full earnest preparing for a defensive pose with his katana, because that 'Qi' fruit looks like it's about to pounce on him and Farmer. Elf doesn't trust this crop, whatever it is in the first place. And when asked how Farmer grew this stuff in the first place, the answer struck Jio like lightning. "You... took strange seeds from a suspicious man and thought it would be a great idea to plant them?" Yeah, It's going to be a long conversation...

Not even strength and persuasion from Farmer will be enough to keep their spouse Maddie from her determination to get into the Water Research Facility & Laboratory with this strange fruit. Because the ginger girl has to find out what it is in the first place! After all, the lab assistant was also watching the process of the Qi fruit's growth, for she was curious about what Farmer was growing. And when the already ripe fruit showed its face with sunglasses, Maddie wants to show it to Aguar to see how to even classify it. Sigh, not Aguar, if he found out there was magic involved...

"Whoa... So creepy... It's like some kind of comic book villain." Phillip kept twisting and twisting the "Qi" fruit in his hands, looking at the "face" of the crop, and even tried to take off the "glasses". It didn't work, however, because it was like they were super glued on. Oh, well. And although the physical therapist is eager to find out what this miracle fruit tastes like, he still wants to take precautions and find some information about the Qi fruit, because maybe it's poisonous???

Blair nearly died laughing when she saw the face of the ripe blue fruit. "Yoba, what a bogeyman!" And how on earth did her partner Farmer manage to grow a fruit with a face like that? Oh, she wants to take a few if Farmer agrees. To taste it? No, the young fisherwoman had thought of a more fun use for this crop.... Such an ugly fruit would definitely be a good way to prank Keahi for the last prank, hee hee hee... Just a harmless joke, Blair promises!

...Anton thought at first that he hadn't fully woken up in the morning, and that he had just imagined a blue face on the kitchen table. Except that when the architect came back from the bathroom already fresh and invigorated from a cold shower, the face had not disappeared from the kitchen table. ...Ok, and then what? How should he even react? And should he even be reacting to this? Because Farmer is not perplexed by the strange fruit in any way, they treat it like a normal apple or banana. ...Alright, then. Anton silently hopes he doesn't get "sunglasses" from this fruit in his portion of salad.

Well done, Farmer, just great! Making Flor nearly faint because they decided to put some ripe Qi fruit on the dinner table before going to bed, without warning the red-haired spouse for doing so. The poor, sleepy girl wanted to drink a glass of water at midnight, but she ended up throwing it all on the floor and screaming, mistaking the fruit for human heads. Now Farmer is ashamed now... And rightly so - they shouldn't scare Flor like that!

Kiarra's face twisted at what she saw. "Honey, you didn't use any fertiliser or seeds from Joja, right? You didn't take anything from them?" Her first guess as to the origin of this strange fruit was immediately the much disliked greedy company with the blue logo. Joja always like to spoil pump vegetables and fruits with all sorts of harmful substances of unknown origin to make them bigger, and as a consequence - to sell them for more money. Even when Farmer explained to her that it wasn't Joja, the girl still remained sceptical. Because it's... not natural. Something is wrong.

Zayne thought that it would be at least tactless and rude of him to voice his first thought out loud when Farmer presented them with the 'fruit of their labours'. Especially since he loved his spouse and knew what a wonderful farmer they are, unrivalled in the entire Republic. But... What is it? The Amethyne family heir has seen some rather unusual and sometimes even strange delicacies on his own dinner table and on the tables of other noble families. But a fruit with a face... Someone, who apparently ordered Farmer to grow the fruit just so, has... a very specific flavour.

"Ew," was Ysabelle's only reaction, and to be honest - many would have agreed with her conclusion about the blue fruit with the snickering face and sunglasses. Even Farmer didn't argue with their partner's opinion about it. Really, ew (no offence, Mr. Qi). The girl simultaneously wants to ask what this fruit is and doesn't want to know anything about it, figuring it will be further questions than answers. People in the hotel have demanded stranger foods and delicacies, so the blue face fruit isn't too much of a shock to her. But still - ew.

"Hmm, why the face?" How does Farmer know, Paula? When they took the assignment from a, ahem, familiar person, they had no idea that the 'Qi fruit' would turn out to be exactly like this - a bit creepy, with a human face (but cool glasses!). The military medic wasn't too surprised by this weird crop (she'd seen much stranger food), and if the fruit wasn't poisonous and wasn't an allergy sufferer's worst nightmare, why not give it a try. "Heh, I wonder if anyone would dare to try this food on a dare"

"No, thank you, my soul. I'm good with an apple," June politely declined as Farmer, having harvested a ripe crop from the greenhouse, brought June a whole basket of different fruits and berries from all seasons to the farmhouse. His favourite apples, strawberries, oranges, pomegranate, a blue fruit with a face- Wait, what? Did he see that right? Yeah, the pianist's eyesight was not deceiving him. Later, he'll be asking Farmer questions about the blue weird fruit. In the meantime, he just wants to enjoy the apple.

When Faye thought of fresh fruit salad, she imagined cutting up a juicy and sweet mango, a ripe, with the sour notes pineapple, a delicious banana, and fill it up it with fresh orange juice. And at the sight of the Qi fruit, the waitress honestly lost her appetite. Is it... really a fruit? Why does it look so scary? It's also smiling... Oh, yuck! Farmer, that fruit winked at her! Brrr! No weird blue fruits on the dinning table, they're scary!

Shiro jumped up sharply, almost scalding hot, when he saw a field of a hundred blue smiling heads from the porch. Everywhere he turned his head, there they were: smiling, the light bouncing off their... Glasses? What the hell is that, anyway? "People want to buy fruit like that? With a scary face?" No, he's not going to try it, and the Farmer isn't advised to either. It doesn't look good, and it probably doesn't taste good anyway- No, Farmer, making this 'Qi' fruit into a smoothie isn't a good idea either... Just don't, please.

Corine never thought people could come up with something like this with crop. Well, she'd seen square watermelons, heart-shaped pears, and even star-shaped peaches on TV. But a melon-sized blue fruit that also had a human face..... Even she didn't expect that. Really, she doesn't understand why the Farmer glued it on. "Oh, I didn't glue the glasses on, dear, they grew with the fruit!" Sorry, the glasses did what?

"No offence, dear, but I'll probably pass." Oh, Farmer didn't grow this fruit for food, but for someone personally? Whew, what a relief... Um, Kenneth didn't mean to be rude or offend Farmer in any way, but the mere thought of that Qi fruit that very much resembled a head being cut with a knife made him cringe and disgusted. The inventor doesn't understand who needs fruit grown in this way, but he's not good at farming, so Kenneth will leave the matter to his spouse.

Stardew Valley Inktober day 22: Hero

Philip, Shiro and Yuuma at San Diego comic con to meet his heroes from Incrediman!

[nyanya78]

Philip is not gonna have a good morning after this one I'm afraid

(I know the farmers costume may be a bit basic but I legit couldn't think of anything decent)

[gamingtrashbasin]

Current Stardew Valley ships

I'm including characters from Ridgeside Village and Expanded mods bc they are canon in my heart 💕

Maru x Sam

Girl boss and her himbo, need I say more? They have to have interacted since Sam is Seb's friend! Classic crush on older brother's friend. Also I think Sam would be super creative and everytime he was like "what if-" Maru would try to invent the thing. Complete chaos. Demetrius tries to threaten Sam like he does the farmer but it completely goes over Sam's head. This pairing lives in my head rent free.

Hailey x Leah

I can definitely see the two of them having multiple forest meet cutes and bonding over their passion for art! Just picture Hailey teaching Leah how to photograph and Leah teaching Hailey to paint and scuplt, both leaning new crafts together. They totally end up running a joint etsy and presenting their works at the fair! They make such a cute cottagecore couple fr if you think about it. I think they'd adopt a bunny don't ask me why. 🐰

Jeric (RSV) x Alex

Yessss himbo rivals to lovers! Ever since I saw there was a mod for them to get together I've been sold. It's canon to me.

Philip (RSV) x Sophia (SDVE)

Sophia enjoys anime, manga, and cosplay. Phillip has a secret geeky side and loves comics. I can totally see these two making awkward small talk at the Stardrop Saloon that turns into Gus politely asking them to leave because they got so enthralled discussing their favorites that they lost track of time and everything else going on around them and now the Saloon is empty and about to close lol. They end up having a slow burn geeky friends to lovers featuring them sharing copies of manga/comics and discussing the latest episodes of their favorite shows. Gus definitely ships it and gives them a nudge here and there.

Flor (RSV) x Gunther

The slowest slow burn. They are both autism creatures. I can completely see them bonding over their special interests bc if you think about it, archeologists and psychologists both study people. Just imagine them infordumping to each other on coffee dates in the Log Cabin Café or discussing the implications of newly discovered artifacts in the museum after hours. They are basically married before either one works up the nerve to ask the other on a date. The whole valley quietly ships it.

Shiro (RSV) x Harvey

Hear me out: Former paratrooper in recovery being treated by a doctor who wanted to be a pilot? There is no way they didn't talk about planes and Shiro's experiences. Shiro probably enjoyed that someone was talking to him about his interests instead of his injuries, it likely made him feel *normal again for awhile. I can just picture the moment when Harvey shows Shiro his radio equipment when he's well enough to go up the stairs, it's a big moment for them both for many reasons 🥺 Also, the added drama of having a crush on your doctor/patient...

*I'm not saying Shiro isn't normal, he has in game dialogue expressing he doesn't feel normal bc of his injuries. As a person with mobility issues myself I understand that mindset and how hard it is not to feel that way.

5K Bash — First Place

Remember last week when I was giddy over my main series, Choices, passing 5k hits? No? Ah, well.

In the poll I ran asking about old scenes, the top three choices finished within a vote of each other, so I'm posting all three this week. Damn desire to please people. ^_~

Title: Spinning Truths and Spinning Lies 'Til Both Come Tumbling Down

Characters: Callie (farmer), Sterling, Henry, Mia, Shane, Emily, Jeric, Philip, and a metric ass-ton of background characters.

Relationships: Shane/Sterling

Rating: Teen

Word Count: 11k

CW: drinking, dub/con (alcohol), drunken kissing

Blurb:

“What I don’t get,” said Henry, “is if all of us know that the afterparty is going to be a shitshow after the Flower Dance, why do we still have one every year?” Sterling laughed. “Fuck if I know." The festival has ended, and a wide swath of young singles from around the valley gather together for a bonfire at Marnie's Ranch. Throw in some alcohol and a game of Spin the Bottle, and someone's bound to get burned. A snipped thread from my main series Choices. Takes place after "The Rite of Movement," but stands alone quite well. This one pulls characters from Stardew Valley Expanded, Ridgeside Village, and East Scarp.

[rsv-sdv]

K¡nky head canon ahead about Philip, mild spoilers for his 10 heart under the cut.

Philip uses honorifics with the farmer at early hearts. Ma'am, sir, or ser, depending on your farmer's gender and whether you're playing with the rsv gender neutrality mod.

Philip's ten heart is a love confession and ends with him inviting you to spend the night (he notes that he has the entire hotel floor to himself). Despite the L word being uttered and him apparently banging the farmer, one of his dialogue lines nevertheless uses an honorific again. Philip follows this up with, "sorry, that's a hard habit to break." There's literally no reason for him to habitually call the farmer by a title unless there's power dynamics at play in private.

Which, it would track that he might lean submissive since he spends all day every day taking care of others. He might like to flip the script, y'know?

[justashamwithwastedpotential]

Oh yeah, the Stardew ask one! Dance of the Moonlight Jellies and Stardew Valley Fair for Skylar? 😊✨

🌙 Dance of the Moon Jellies 🌙

How does your OC feel about staying up to watch the moon jellies? Do they go? Do they stay home? Skylar's not exactly a big fan of the beach or the ocean, but there's something so undeniably beautiful and mystical about the lunaloos that they can't resist the opportunity to go see them.

Do they start to fall asleep and need someone to keep them up? & Do they watch the jellies with others or prefer to find a quiet spot to observe all on their own? If they do watch with others, who do they watch it with? They absolutely do start to doze off while waiting. They've been working hard all day after all! But that's why Skylar likes to be around Philip since he has the same problem. If one of them starts to fall asleep the other will wake them up. Or Torts will bite them if they both doze off 😅

🍔 Stardew Valley Fair 🍔

How do they feel about the Stardew Valley Fair? Is it fun or annoying? How do they feel about the tourist? Skylar is pretty neutral about the fair and usually spends their time just standing in silence with Marlon by the weapons grange, mostly to avoid the tourist and chat with Alesia if she comes by.

What games do they play, if any? Do they play to win star tokens or just for fun? What kind of prizes do they like to get? Slingshot game, 100 Percent. It's less about the star tokens and more about wanting to beat Sam's high score, but they haven't even gotten close to it yet. They usually end up buying some random food item, a plushie, or piling their coins together with the rest of their friends for something they wanted.

How do they feel about Gus's burgers? Skylar's not exactly vegetarian, but they don't eat a lot of meat. They think the burgers are okay, but you'll usually find them over at Pika's instead if they're getting something to eat. They are incredibly concerned and amused by the rate at which Lance seems to scarf them down though

rsv marriage candidates and whether they can drive

why? bc i'm bored... feel free to send me any other prompts if you have them!

alissa: no, but she occasionally drives her dad's truck around the orchard for chores.

anton: yes, but his car has been broken down for months now, and instead of getting it fixed, he's just been mooching rides off his siblings.

blair: nope! she just gets her mom or sean to drive her places instead~

bryle: absolutely - he's certified to drive cars, trucks, motorcycles, and armored vehicles.

corine: yep! feel free to call her if you ever need a ride, okay? :) (seriously, you can call her at like 3 am and she'll be there, no questions asked.)

daia: no, but luckily she's a master at guilting people into offering her rides - the world is her uber.

faye: got her license only recently after having hired drivers most of her life... she's the type to obliviously cut across three lanes of highway traffic to her exit with a bumper sticker that says "silly goose on board".

flor: yes, when she has to... but if anyone honks at her she *will* pull onto the shoulder to cry

ian: no - he can't pass the written test...

irene: yes, and she's also an avid collector of cute bumper stickers! this one is a strawberry with a smiley face!

jeric: well, he has his motorcycle license... why, you want a ride? ;)

jio: jio doesn't know what cars are.

june: um, no? what do you take him for, a str*ight???

kenneth: yes, but he's more interested in building motor vehicles than driving them...

kiarra: yup. she drives an old subaru outback with a zillion bumper stickers that say stuff like "support your local pollinators" and "no human being is illegal". oh, and her car's name is sally ride.

maddie: yes... but she road-rages like overworked ex-military trucker. do not ride with her unless you've made your peace with god.

paula: not only does she have her license, she's one of the best drivers you'll ever meet. (years of driving MEVs across gotoro battlefields will give you that.)

philip: yes - his dream car is the incredicar, as seen in the first movie adaptation of incrediman, "incrediman vs. the royal serpent" - but right now he drives a handicap-accessible minivan, yknow, for work...

sean: yeah, he has a truck he can use for work stuff - but don't look in the backseat. it's littered with empty gatorade bottles and fruit gummy bags.

shiro: no... but he used to...

ysabelle: nope. hashtag corine's passenger princess 4 lyfe ^^

zayne: a license? like the chauffeurs have? why would he need that??

tuesdaypost year in review

this year brought to you by viewers like you. thank you! i still do not know how to thank everyone for their incredible generosity during the Late July/Early August Moving Catastrophe Badtimes and im still feelin some kinda way about it. thank you.

took eight weeks completely off, more than any other year so far

overnight traveled for work for the first time

moved cross country with Mack to face dangers untold and hardships unnumbered

bought an actual for-real couch and not a futon

got Phil

(unrelated to Phil) i got spayed after almost ten years of begging and pleading various medical professionals, (also unrelated) got covid and RSV back to back

listening

fallow weeks: 8. i almost always have a tuesdaysong bc i am almost always listening to something. all of the tuesdaysongs are here:

particular favorites were Peel Me A Grape (Anita O’Day), top spotify song of the year Yeah Yeah Yeah (Blood Orchid), Yeah Yeah Yeah’s Wolf remixed by Sextile, Father Finlee (Spence Hood), A Minha Menina (Os Mutantes).

the very last tuesdaysong of the year is Sugar Rum Cherry by Duke Ellington, one of the few christmas songs i tolerate.

special shoutout to the austin underscore walker universe of podcasts, bc i mainlined A More Civilized Age (clone wars/star wars rewatch) while packing, and devoured P/alisade (the newest scifi season of F/riends at the Table) this month.

-

reading

fallow weeks: 11. pleased that i am killing the invisible rules in my head and including more articles instead of feeling guilty about Not Reading A Real Book!!! every week when i sit down to write the tuesdaypost. read a fuckton earlier this year bc i was procrastinating moving prep, have not read much since i moved.

article sources:

inoreader (the best free RSS feed/app imo)

The Markup (gold standard usage of data to show how various technologies are being used to harm the public good: you may have heard of the recent American bills to equalize internet service and fix organ donation grift. that was them)

Web 3 Is Going Just Great (crypto disasters)

404 Media (technology reporting, internet culture, also break a lot of data/legal/privacy scandals)

Remap (formerly Vice's video games division Waypoint, more active on podcasts and twitch but do have great personal essays about gaming longreads)

Retraction Watch (an important academic service but platformed a particularly virulent transphobe and let the comments devolve into a free for all. yes im still mad about this)

Krebs on Security (~once a month extremely long and thoughtful infosec writeups)

Data Colada (cover academic data whoopsies, currently being sued for their journalism)

the two authors i spent the most time with this year were Alexis Hall (romance novels and novellas) and Raymond Chandler's noir detective novels. i read 90% of Raymond Chandler's work in march and went insane about yet another sad bisexual man. Philip Marlowe the cat is named after his pet detective, the human Philip Marlowe.

march was kind of a banger for this category bc in one of what i consider the best tuesdayposts this year, i tried to break down why i fucking hated Frank Miller's Sin City comics so much.

other comics, but ones i loved: Spy X Family, Berserk, weird noir DC miniseries The Human Target.

-

watching

fallow weeks: 10

notable stuff i watched for the first time (according to letterboxd) that will stick in my head for a bit. some (The Night of the Hunter) i am so glad i watched once but do not feel the need to revist. some (Slipstream) fascinate me with how good they could have been. some (Twilight. all of them) were fun bc of the people i watched them with. the two i went particularly deranged over are The Big Sleep and Day of Anger. still feel very normal about them.

very heavy on crime and courtroom films this year!

television: very excited for s2 of Blue Eye Samurai, Interview With The Vampire, Spy X Family.

i should loop back and finish Black Lagoon, Adventure Time (completely forgot i rewatched most of that this spring), and The Big O. that last one is throwing me a little bc (since i last checked) there is no freely available version with subtitles (i cannot find subtitles Period) and i'll be damned if i have to import a dvd. i can find the dub with subtitles but! i want to hear spike spiegel as mecha-batman :(

sort of lukewarm eh-i'll-get-around-to-it about s/tar wars shows. i have not watched a/hsoka At All or wrapped up the animated Resistance show. i'll pay attention when ando/r is airing again.

-

playing

fallow weeks: 10. way fewer than i would have guessed!

the trouble with this category is that it is exceptionally hard to find new good games (either ones i already own or ones that are free). it is almost completely prohibitively exhausting to trawl through the free category on steam. there's simply a lot of cruft out there. a very good thing (but also incredibly timeconsuming thing) i started this year was throwing games into various folders so the eight bajillion libraries i have are less overwhelming. i can safely ignore 80% of my epic games library, for example. the itch.io library is a whole separate weekend project i think.

got back into genshin for good or for ill, which took up most of the back half of the year.

go play ABZU. i am no longer asking.

i would like to go back and finish the RPG Gamedec, un-softblock myself in the RPG Weird West, and finish the visual novel Dead Man's Rest. i think i stalled out in Call of Juarez: Gunslinger bc there was a mexican standoff that my reflexes are simply not fast enough for/too much to pay attention to. i am excited to pick up that spooky fishing simulator DREDGE when i have fun money again.

completely forgot i spent most of jan/feb/march being annoyed at fallou/t 4 but having some fun in Far Harbor, also forgot i spent an entire month playing through Wolfenstein: The New Order but i am not compelled to play through it again. it was fun! but like many games after one playthrough my time with it is done!

-

making

fallow weeks: 17 (unsurprising, pretty low energy year as a whole as i recovered from covid rounds 1 and 2 and the frankly insane stress of moving).

wrote exactly one fic: some matters at the heart of cowboy western snap shirts: why they are so and some of the implications of their being so, i would like to write more next year but i don't really have the brainpower. i hope this changes soon.

the baby blanket i started last year is still not done but the baby is still under a year so i have a very narrow window of time.

dyed some couch covers im still very pleased with

wrote an extremely long but very well received gallery wall guide

recipes: 12. sort of shocked by this? i am becoming an incrementally better cook and slowly finding recipes i both like and can successfully execute. found the fortitude to caramelize onions, for example. quick pickled red onions, for another thing. big year for protein or greens on top of beans and rice. faves included: cuban-style pork shoulder, hellofresh peruvian chicken, red lentil soup, white bean/kale/rice bowls

i would like to be less terrified about cooking fish. i would like to eat more fish.

and of course, the biggest project of all, acquired Phil. here is my very favorite photo ive ever taken of a cat

[steveezekiel]

TRAVAILING UNTIL CHRIST IS FORMED IN YOU [Galatians 4g]

“My little children, with whom I am again in TRAVAIL UNTIL CHRIST BE FORMED IN YOU.”

Galatians 4:19 (RSV)

• Your primary assignment as a Minister is to divide, SKILLFULLY TEACH the Word of truth—the Bible (2 Timothy 2:15).

- You are to feed the flock of God under your Care: "I urge you then to SEE THAT YOUR “flock of God” IS PROPERLY FED AND CARED FOR. Accept the responsibility of looking after them willingly AND NOT BECAUSE YOU FEEL YOU CAN'T GET [something] OUT OF IT, DOING YOUR WORK NOT FOR WHAT YOU CAN MAKE, BUT BECAUSE YOU ARE REALLY CONCERNED FOR THEIR WELL-BEING" (1 Peter 5:2 Philips).

- You are to equip them for the work of ministry and edify them–build THEM up.

11. “And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,

12. FOR THE EQUIPPING OF THE SAINTS FOR THE WORK OF MINISTRY, FOR THE EDIFYING OF THE BODY OF CHRIST.”

Ephesians 4:11,12 (NKJV)

- You are to take oversight—serve as an overseer (Acts 20: 27,28; Hebrews 13:7,17).

- You oversee the people in prayer not by needless visitations, although visiting their houses when needed may be necessary.

- Some Ministers are fond of going to people’s houses, offices, shops and so on IN the name of visitation.

SOME Ministers who do such a THING are BEING sincerely wrong, they do not know better, they thought they would have to visit the people all the time; BUT some are doing it because of the money that would be given to them.

THE real oversight of people is done in the place of prayer.

- If you commit your people to God in prayer, you put prayer covering over them and pray that Christ be formed in them, you may not need to be going about visiting them all the time.

- Your major assignment is to watch over them in prayer, and stay before God to study His Word and fellowship with Him to receive what to feed them with.

BEING hardworking in the Ministry is not about running around per se, but about being diligent in prayer, the studying of the Word, and ministering what you have studied and received from God to the people!

2. “Then the twelve summoned the multitude of the disciples and said, “IT IS NOT DESIRABLE THAT WE SHOULD LEAVE THE WORD OF GOD AND SERVE TABLES.

4. “BUT WE WILL GIVE OURSELVES CONTINUALLY TO PRAYER AND TO THE MINISTRY OF THE WORD.”

Acts 6:2,4 (NKJV)

• If you feed your people with the undiluted Word of God and stay in the presence of God to pray for them, that Christ may be formed in them; THEY would not be a prey in the hands of the false teachers.

NOTE: What time does a Minister has IN running errands for his or her church members?

• A single Parent

WHEN I was still pastoring, a sister, single parent, had A problem with the light in her house, she had issues with the Electricity Company. She came to me and narrated the story, I directed her to someone I know in the company and the person attended to her promptly, the issues were settled that day.

WHEN she came back, she said she was expecting me to go with her or go alone by myself to settle the matter on her behalf. She said, the pastor in her former church used to do that for her. She blurted out, “and I am paying my tithe.” I told her I cannot do that for you, since I know someone who can help you there, I do not need to go there.

- If you want to please everyone as a minister, you will never please God (Galatians 1:10).

- Some pastors are in the custody of the people they are leading, they are pastors that Someone can call anytime, anyhow, and demand to do one thing or another for them; And give such a pastor a paltry sum, money, for the errands he has run for them.

- These things I am sharing are common to Pastors of small congregation and some itinerant ministers.

- Some Ministers have sold their BIRTHRIGHT, ministry right, like Esau because of a morsel of meal: “Lest there be any fornicator or PROFANE PERSON LIKE ESAU, WHO FOR ONE MORSEL OF FOOD SOLD HIS BIRTHRIGHT" (Hebrews 12:16).

- The grace of God on your life is more than the money that anyone could give to you.

- Pay attention to your work, the assignment, by giving yourself to prayer and the Word of God Acts (6:2,4).

- It is when you do these, give yourself to prayer and the Word, that you will save yourself and the people you are leading (1 Timothy 4:13,16).

- When you do it, your profits or progress will come, it will APPEAR, and be SEEN, by all men (1 Timothy 4:15).

13. “Till I come, give attention to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.

14. Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership.

15. Meditate upon these things; give yourself entirely to them, THAT THY PROGRESS [profiting] MAY APPEAR TO ALL.

16. Take heed to yourself and to the doctrine. Continue in them, FOR IN DOING THIS YOU WILL SAVE BOTH YOURSELF, AND THOSE WHO HEAR YOU.”

1 Timothy 4:13-16 (NKJV)

• You will not fail in Jesus' name.

Peace!

maybe some headcanons about the ridgeside village characters reactions to the farmer's younger sibling(s)? can be whatever character you want (dateable or otherwise), just please include Paula and Daia as they're my favorites :]]

love your work!!

Sure thing! I've decided to choose marriage candidates, so Paula and Daia will be here for sure :3

Thank you, dear anon, for the kind words and your ask! Enjoy 💕

_________________________________________

Working hard to provide for themself and their siblings? How Ian understands Farmer, and grown to respect them. He himself gives almost all earnings so that his dear sister can choose where she will be educated. The handyman is usually always busy, but wouldn't mind chatting with Farmer about the family, and maybe even have his sister come to visit and meet Farmer's siblings.

Hmm, yes, Jio knows that the old farmer had many grandchildren, but it was the eldest that got the farm in the Stardew Valley. But grumpy elf hadn't shown much more interest, except that there were orders from his Lady to keep an eye on them if any of Farmer's brothers or sisters started venturing into the dangerous Ridge forest. After all, young people could be so careless...

New audiences, hmm? June is pleased to realise that young people are enthralled by his piano playing. Farmer and their brother/sister don't miss any of his plays in Hotel, and the younger of the siblings always applauds enthusiastically for the talented musician. Well, June thinks it's okay to play something else since the audience is asking nicely for it.

All Farmer siblings know that when they accidentally hurt themselves in Ridgeside Village, they should immediately turn to the kindly Dr Paula for help: she will quickly treat their wounds, calm them down, and even stick a cool band-aid with their favourite superhero. It's a pleasure to go to such a doctor! But sometimes Paula can shake her head disapprovingly (while holding back laughter), because Farmer sisters have started pretending to be sick in order to spend time with the doctor and get another cool band-aid.

Irene always has something nice and yummy pastry for the lovely children who come to visit the estate with their older brother/sister. Especially since all the kids are real angels, always polite, and bring her a bouquet of flowers as a gift. Ah, what little darlings! And Farmer does an excellent job in protecting and caring for them.

Farmer has to check on their siblings at times when they're done socialising with Daia. Not that they think the ninja will hurt the kids, not at all. But she acts like that cool (according to the kids) aunt who spoils all the time, allows everything, gives pocket money and gifts of dubious origin (ah yes, the "toy" katana). And yet, if they get into trouble, Daia will protect them, because Farmer is her friend, and their siblings are already like family to her.

The constant running of children in the main square reminded Anton of his carefree youth, when he and Paula used to play catch-up as well. Sigh, what a wonderful time it had been..... Although he is now quite depressed about the mistakes of the past, the kind children will always make Anton smile, at least for a few minutes. Well done, Farmer - the farm is watched, and family is protected.

"Blair will always teach only great things," said the young fisherwoman with a sly smile, explaining to Farmer's sisters and brothers when to jump out of the bushes to scare the passing "victims" of her next ingenious prank. Well, at least the kids have something to do while their older sibling shops for seeds and runs errands for the residents of Ridgeside Village.

Zayne had already settled into his home since his arrival, and was eager to meet Farmer and their siblings. His Grandmother had told him that her late friend's eldest grandchild had managed to do a lot for the village, and that their siblings (though noisy) were quite decent and good children. And it was true - Zayne had had a lot of fun getting to know them and socialising with them.

Don't think Maddie doesn't like children, it's not true. And that incident when Farmer's brothers/sisters accidentally scared her, causing her to drop the papers she needed for work, was just an isolated incident when the young lab assistant raised her voice. Especially since the kids immediately apologised for the misdemeanour and helped the ginger girl gather up all her things. Nice kids, Maddie thinks, just very energetic and noisy at times.

Good Uncle Jeric will always welcome his Farmer friend (and rival!) with open arms, along with their cool siblings. Always hospitable, he treats them to fresh fruit and berries, lets them pet Turbo and even give him a yummy treat. Just a little bit so his horse doesn't get too spoilt, haha! All in all, the kids love Jeric, and he's always happy to see Farmer's little brothers and sisters on his little farm.

Does Sean have a moment to chat or play with Farmer's sister/brother? Heck yeah! He's just finishing up an errand for Ian and would like to take his mind off work for a bit. So how are things on the farm? What's new in Pelican Town? He wouldn't mind visiting friends in the neighbouring town, and having fun with the kids again.

Ysabelle was quite neutral about the hotel guests. Yes, Farmer had visited her grandfather's establishment with their siblings, and she would be welcoming and ask how they were doing. But... No more than that, she's still busy with work after all, so she can't be distracted. So many people are staying at the hotel!

Who wants a refreshing cool drink from Faye? Of course Farmer's cool siblings want one, look at the glitter in their eyes! So excited! Second waitress and assistant in Pika's restaurant is very happy to greet the Pelican Town guests, dispensing their orders.

With the poise of a watchful noble dog, Bryle stoically endures all the requests and pleas of Farmer's siblings to show them his "super cool gun". It's not a toy, and he's tried to explain to them what times. They're great listeners when the Governor's bodyguard told the kids about some of his most memorable incidents on the job. But no, he won't be showing his service weapon. Period. And puppy dog eyes won't help here, although Farmer's siblings are trying hard.

Oh, Farmer's brothers and sisters visited the Nightingale Orchard? Just a second, Alissa has a couple of freshly plucked, juicy cherry pluots for them. Oh, what- They want to hear her sing??? Oh dear, um.... she's confused, Alissa doesn't think she sings as well as the kids think..... Okay, okay, well... Alright, for the kids', but it will be a secret, deal?

A banana milkshake each from Corine, so that the lovely Farmer siblings wouldn't stop her from serving Pika's food to the other customers while their oldest brother/sister went off to get the promised groceries for the restaurant owner and chef. And so, when the waitress is on her lunch break or the end of her shift, she doesn't mind hearing the latest news from the children in the Stardew Valley and on their farm.

Flor tries to give all the children the attention they deserve when it comes to learning. It became a little more difficult, because Farmer's little brothers and sisters were added to her usual group, but they are quite intelligent and obedient students, listening attentively to the lectures of the red-haired teacher. So gifted and full of interest in knowledge - real prodigies!

Philip is happy to share his new comics with Farmer's siblings, since they are also fans of his favourite franchise. The therapist's heart was especially touched by the gifts from the children - a bunch of drawings of his favourite sci-fi comic book characters. The kids clearly have talent! He will definitely keep their gifts in a special box so they won't go to waste. And won't forget to give them branded stickers or other cool trinkets based on their favourite fandom in return.

"Do you have games on your laptop?" is probably the most frequent question addressed to Kiarra from the brother/sister of her friend Farmer. The graphic designer wanted to show Farmer's sibling her living room model that she has created, but they seem to be more interested in watching her play solitaire on the laptop screen or playing marbles. Oh well...

Shiro would like to introduce Farmer's siblings to his little brother Yuuma, hoping they can become friends and play together. The kids clearly want to get to know each other, it's just that Shiro is a little afraid that his little brother will refuse, explaining that he has a lot to do and don't have time for games. Good thing that Farmer's siblings are as determined as their oldest is, and help Yuuma get some rest after all.

What Kenneth hadn't expected when he left his house in the early morning was the squatting children surrounding his robot on all sides. Oh, they were Farmer's siblings, probably his friend and their family had decided to visit the Village on business. But apparently this kids were more enthusiastic about Kenneth's invention, for they did not take their eyes off the beeping machine. Until the electrician drew the children's attention, and they happily surrounded Kenneth from all sides, asking him about his other inventions.

Last extra update until sometime in December, so please enjoy! Today in Chapter 8 of Choices: Winter, "What Friends are For," it's Callie's turn to go off the rails. Unable—or unwilling—to face the world, she drops completely off the radar. (Un)Fortunately for her, she's made far too many friends for them to let that slide for long, especially when it results in her injuring herself.

Sneak Peek:

“Normally, Mia would host, but that’s obviously out,” Emily said from behind the bar as she poured Leah and Elliott’s drinks. “And Callie….” “Where is she?” asked Victor. “No one’s seen her all week. Sam said she even skipped out on visiting Penny’s class today, and Callie never misses that.” That caught Shane’s attention. That she hadn’t come to the saloon didn’t surprise him; he figured she was likely keeping Sterling company. “I’m worried about her,” Elliott frowned. “To be honest, so am I,” Jeric piped up, wrinkles creasing his forehead. “She’s barely holding it together. Pretty sure she’s been hitting the sauce harder too, and she’s started skipping out on everything—aerobics, Solarian Chronicles, Penny’s class. I dropped by her farm on the way here, and all of her animals look content and well-cared for, so she’s definitely still alive, but it’s not like her to stop talking to everyone.” Shane’s mouth twisted. “Isn’t she with the Coopers?” asked Sophia. Emily shook her head. “Mia said Sterling still refuses to talk to her.” “Callie’s not handling it well,” frowned Philip. “When I talked to her yesterday, I got the impression she’s blaming herself for his relapse.” Everyone at the bar stared at him. Shane flinched.
