I’M GOING INSANE YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP! | There Was This Harvey X Fem Reader Fic Collection Called

Oh my God, Elliott I missed you

Hello my love,

How I've missed you as well. These past fews months have been nothing but loneliness without my favorite farmer beside me. I'm afraid that the dark circles under my puffy cheeks is very noticeable... but I know a night spent with you in my arms will be my only cure.

I just want to preface that I do not think using AI, like Grammarly for example, to make corrections to your work applies to my statement. I’ve used Grammarly and built-in tools like in Google Docs to check my grammar and punctuation because English is stupidly hard, and I say that as a native English speaker. My initial post only applies to people that put a prompt into some sort of AI that generates a story instead of you just writing it yourself.

Even after learning and studying how to write, I still need this little bit of assistance. Editors/beta readers do the same, only I can’t afford or even find one. To me, it’s like art. You can trace all you want but if you don’t know the fundamentals, tracing will only get you so far.

I hope this makes sense! I do not condone or support the use of generative AI.

Just came across AI-generated work in the Stardew Valley section on AO3 for the first time. This author’s only two published fics used it.

It disappoints me, honestly. This person is missing the part of the process where all you wanna do smash your screen into tiny little pieces and swear off writing ever again but working through that until you excitedly share it online! It’s all so important to experience, even if you think it’s shitty in the end, because it means at least you did it. It means you feel more connected to it and you’re strengthening your skill! You can only get better!

If you think your story is done but still not up to your standards, post it anyway! Someone will love it and it might help you break from that mindset you’re in.

Write fan fiction, have fun, it’s not that deep :)

FLUFF ALPHABET W/ SEBASTIAN — STARDEW VALLEY

SUMMARY: The Fluff Alphabet by @snk-warriors featuring Sebastian!

CONTAINS: sfw, gn! reader, fluff, established relationship

NOTES: Dedicating this to @badgerintraining who asked about this a while ago! I’m so sorry this took me so long to post. I was really enjoying my break before the semester started and now that it has, it’s kept me busy. I hope I did your boy justice!

A = Activities - What do they like to do with their s/o? How do they spend their free time with them?

Sebastian likes playing video games with you or to have you at his side while you watch him! He likes having your input and commentary as he plays. This includes you playing Solarian Chronicles with him and Sam too. He also likes showing and explaining his comic book collection to you!

B = Beauty - What do they admire about their s/o? What do they think is beautiful about them?

He loves your touch and your skin! It’s always so warm and your scent relaxes him. He loves being enveloped by you. It’s not something he thought he liked before—in fact, he wasn’t receptive to it at all—but with you, it’s so different. Your presence and touch is calming because you’re not overbearing or expectant of him. When anyone else touches him, he visibly tenses.

C = Comfort - How would they help their s/o when they feel down/have a panic attack etc.?

Sebastian isn’t great at comforting people. He’s very awkward. For example, if he finds you crying, he’ll stand there for a moment before going to sit next to you. He hesitates to rub your back at first (he does awkwardly) but eventually pulls you into him. He doesn’t say anything, just letting you cry, all while he becomes increasingly more comfortable with petting your head and holding you tighter. He’ll ask you if you want to talk about and then offer to do something you enjoy, like watching your favorite show.

D = Dreams - How do they picture their future with their s/o?

He pictures a quiet life with an occasional outing. He’s not concerned about marriage or children—he’s never pictured that life for himself personally. He might want to buy an apartment in the city where he (and you!) can go to every so often.

E = Equal - Are they the dominant one in the relationship, or rather passive?

He tends to be more dominant but it’s not on purpose; he’s kinda stubborn. For example: if you come home later than you said you would, he’s waiting for you at the door or on the porch and telling you off. He does it out of love and worry but tries to come off as though he’s more mad than he actually is.

F = Fight - Is it easy for them to forgive their s/o? How are they when fighting?

Although he tries to act tough, he’s very sensitive! If you hurt him, he’s going to be quite passive until you approach him to apologize. He’s not gonna initiate anything. If holding grudges was a sport, he’d be the MVP. The same pretty much goes for when you fight. But if he was in the wrong, he’ll probably be mad for a little while but later he shamefully apologizes.

G = Gratitude - How grateful are they in general? Are they aware of what their s/o is doing for them?

He’s very grateful for you as a person but doesn’t recognize his gratitude beyond that very often. Not because he isn’t! He most definitely is but it doesn’t cross his mind frequently. When it does, he becomes kinda mushy, giving you more physical affection than normal and doing you favors around the house or farm.

H = Honesty - Do they have secrets they hide from their s/o? Or do they share everything?

I think Sebastian has a lot of secrets or things about himself that he’s not willing to share. It’s so hard for him to open up. The longer you’re together, the more he does and the easier it is for him.

I = Inspiration - Did their s/o change them somehow, or the other way around? Like trying out new things or helped them overcome personal problems?

Without a doubt! He’s very open-minded and is willing to do just about anything to ensure your happiness. He tends to like what you introduce to him to even if he thinks he won’t at first! It’s enough that you want to spend time with him.

J = Jealousy - Do they get jealous easily? How do they deal with it?

He doesn’t get jealous very easily but when he sees someone blatantly flirting with you, he gets pissed. He’s not confrontational so he’ll aggressively remove you from the situation, pulling you close to his body. He’ll then either lecture you, asking you what the hell was going on, or he’ll give you the silent treatment with one word answers or grunts. Either way, he is not letting you leave his side nor is he removing his hand from you.

K = Kiss - Are they a good kisser? What was the first kiss like?

Inexperienced king. The first kiss was awkward and shy on his part. He was a little hesitant, cupping your cheek so gently and slowly pulling you in. His kiss is so soft and sweet, like you were going to crumble beneath him if it wasn’t.

L = Love Confession - How would they confess to their s/o?

On a motorcycle ride to a cliff with a view of the city!

M = Marriage - Do they want to get married? How do they propose? What would the marriage be like?

I think the thought of marriage kind of freaks him out. Commitment freaks him out. If you’re down to never be married, he’d be very happy. But if that’s something you know you want, you’ll need to tell him that so he can ease himself in the idea. The closer and longer you’ve been together, the more receptive he is to the idea.

N = Nicknames - What do they call their s/o?

Babe, Sweet Thing, Doll. He mainly calls you by your name and sometimes ‘babe’, reserving the other two mostly for the bedroom. He’s not much for nicknames otherwise.

O = On Cloud Nine - What are they like when they’re in love? Is it obvious for others? How do they express their feelings?

To people who don’t know him well, no, it’s not obvious. To people who do know him well, it’s painfully obvious. He spends less time in his room, he’s happier, he’s friendlier, he’s more sociable. His loved ones catch on quickly that something’s up and he knows there’s no hiding it.

P = PDA - Are they upfront about their relationship? Do they brag with their s/o in front of others? Or are they rather shy to kiss etc. when others are watching?

I don’t think he talks a whole lot about you. That’s not to say he’s unhappy or ashamed because that is so far from the truth. Sebastian is a very private person, only willing to let the outside world in on a surface level. The closer he is to someone, the more he’s likely to mention you. He just wants to keep his private life private.

Q = Quirk - Some random ability they have that’s beneficial in a relationship.

he’s good with his hands Sebastian is very good at setting boundaries, mainly that of alone time. His social battery drains very quickly—it always has—and he needs frequent time to himself to recharge. Please don’t take it personally! It has nothing to do with you. Even in your honeymoon phase, he’ll need this. It aligns with your schedules pretty well, though. While you’re busy going throughout your day on the farm, he’s at home using that time to spend alone, and in turn, time to miss you. He’s always so happy to see you return, hoping you’d like to spend time together for a little while.

R = Romance - How romantic are they? What would they do to make their s/o happy? Cliché or rather creative?

I think his first reflex is to do something cliche and romantic, like taking you out to a nice restaurant. His second would probably be a more adolescent approach, like a movie. And there’s nothing wrong with either of those date ideas! But as he grows more comfortable in your relationship, he starts taking you places he enjoys (and of course, thinks you’ll enjoy too), like going to a concert, going to an amphibian and reptile showing, or even getting a (small) couple tattoo.

S = Support - Are they helping their s/o achieve their goals? Do they believe in them?

He hates when people try to help him without him asking. He knows how that can make things worse so he doesn’t want to step on anyone’s toes. Unless you ask him for his help and specify what it is you need his help with, he’s gonna back off. He’ll always give you emotional support though. He wants to see you succeed and help you in achieving your goals!

T = Thrill - Do they need to try out new things to spice out your relationship? Or do they prefer a certain routine?

Sebastian is such a creature of habit and doesn’t feel a need for much adventure. He prefers to keep a lowkey routine and is very content with it. He needs to be able to rely on it to manage his anxiety and depression.

U = Understanding - How good do they know their partner? Are they empathetic?

He’s a lot more empathetic than he might come across. Sebastian is very perceptive and he quickly picks up on what bothers you. Even if he might not exactly understand what you’re feeling, he does understand what it’s like to not be so he’ll always try his best to empathize with you.

V = Value - How important is the relationship to them? What is it’s worth in comparison to other things in their life?

Sebastian strikes me as the type to lead with his heart. He might not completely rationalize a situation or think logically at first. For example: if you’re in danger, he’ll run into it head on in an attempt to bring you to safety, not considering other possible factors or hurdles he might come across. So he’ll do and endure just about anything if it means you’re happy.

W = Wild Card - A random Fluff Headcanon.

On rainy days, Sebastian likes to either take you down to the docks or to catch frogs with you! At the docks, he brings a couple of towels for you both to sit on as you stare into the horizon, cuddling each other under your shared umbrella. Catching frogs brings out a child-like innocence in him that you rarely ever see. He’s completely himself too, telling you everything he knows about them or about that specific species you caught.

X = XOXO - Are they very affectionate? Do they love to kiss and cuddle?

He’s actually more affectionate than you may think! He likes having you in his lap while he works at the computer. He’s especially cuddly in the morning and at night. If he’s not holding you, he’s wrapping himself around you and burying his face in the crook of your neck. But he’d never admit to doing that to save his life.

Y = Yearning - How will they cope when they’re missing their partner?

Sebastian will probably text you hourly to check on you, maybe even call you just to hear your voice. He greets you at the door when you come home, suggesting a movie or chill multiplayer game.

Z = Zeal - Are they willing to go to great lenghts for the relationship? If so, what kind?

Absolutely! He’s a lot softer than he likes to come across. If you asked him to quit smoking, he might give you some gruff about it but eventually would. It wouldn’t leave his mind, in fact. He’d look at it as something he had to do, the only reason he’d hesitate at first is because of the addiction. Otherwise, if you asked, then sure!

RANDOM ELLIOTT HEADCANONS — sdv, part 1

CONTAINS: sfw, references to alcohol and intoxication (written by someone who’s never consumed it), stupid American writing British people

NOTES: I seriously have to start posting more. I have so many drafts both for Tumblr and AO3 but I’m stuck in a mind set that my work isn’t good enough to post. BLAH.

— Elliott is a lightweight. Like extremely so. Two glasses of wine in and he’s already pretty wasted.

— When he is drunk, he doesn’t have much of a filter either. This is the most you’ll likely hear him swear and it’s honestly kinda funny. Or if he has a crush on you, he’s likely to confess by either flirting heavily or just out right saying he does.

— It isn’t until morning that he feels so much shame and regret for however he acted.

— This is a headcanon I’ve been thinking of recently: Elliott could be British (or whatever the SDV equivalent is.)

— I imagine he came overseas for college when he was in his early twenties or so.

— He probably tried to unlearn his accent in order to fit in better because he got teased for it and/or people assumed he was a tourist and tried to scam him (and he being young and naïve, fell for it a few times). You might not initially guess his fake accent isn’t real unless he tells you where he grew up.

— If he’s been drinking, his natural accent isn’t concealed as much.

— This was probably his first time traveling out of the country too.

— Elliott isn’t very good with technology. If we’re imagining Stardew taking place in the 90’s-2000’s, he’s probably very resistant to upgrading his typewriter to a computer or the landline to a cell phone, purposely not learning how to use them (which bites him in the ass down the road). But in the modern day, he genuinely just can’t understand how to learn, and thinking about it for too long gives him a headache.

— He prefers to be a passenger than a driver. He also doesn’t let people smoke in his car. The smell sticks and he would rather not have to deal with that.

— He has reading glasses for when he reads and writes. I imagine they’re either half moon or slightly oversized black frames. He’s a little far sighted. 🤏 The silver lining is that it gives off writer vibes so…

— Elliott has a PhD in English although he didn’t do a lot with it. He really likes the title and being able to say he has a doctorate in English, if nothing else. He probably minored in History as well.

— Elliott’s first crush was on Liza Minnelli, regardless of what you headcanon his sexuality to be. He watched Cabaret as a young teen and fell in love.

— Elliott was an anonymous writer who used a pseudonym when he first started publishing his work. Until he came to Pelican Town and was encouraged by the farmer to write, he was content without his work being traced back to him. He just likes to write and that by itself is enough for him. Plus, he’s quite shy, preferring to stay out of the public eye.

— Though he chose to live on the beach, his skin is very sensitive and he sunburns easily. He’s learned to be careful and he’s always had a good skincare routine. His skin has definitely darkened slightly since living in Pelican Town.

— want to request something? you can do that here!

— ABOUT ME

Hello, I’m May! I’m from New York and currently majoring in fine arts. I began playing Stardew Valley in May 2023 and it has since become my favorite game. My obsession led me here on Tumblr where I started this blog in July 2024 (after my first was wrongfully flagged). You can expect to see headcanons, art, and fanfiction of the bachelors mostly. My favorites are Elliott—hence the blog name—and Sam! I’m also a die-hard Sambastian truther. Outside of Stardew, I enjoy reading, creative writing, American Horror Story, Castlevania, and bands like Misfits, The Used, My Chemical Romance (saw them live!), Pulp, Badflower, and Elliott Smith. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you want to be friends! I hope you'll stick around! Stay safe, be kind. ✌︎︎

He had Sam, after all, and the perfect pairing of sun and moon moved to Zuzu City not long after the farmer married the eccentric writer who lived on the beach. Now, Sebastian is making ends meet working at a coffee shop near the university district, thoroughly jaded by life and love. He only goes home for holidays when he knows Maru and his ex aren’t going to be there. The old farm sits empty again, re-abandoned after a few years. Sometimes he wonders what happened to the family that formed there as he drives back to his depressingly tiny apartment in Zuzu City. He never expected he’d actually find out, or find himself falling in love again.

Distracting himself from his angst, Seb throws all of his energy into his secret job as a cam model, where he can find the praise and encouragement he needs from anonymous subscribers on the internet to keep him going. But it’s getting difficult to fight the burnout from working so much, and Seb is getting tired. To make matters worse, Abigail’s been hanging out with the one person Seb hates the most- the warm, talkative, and brash Sam.

[Sam/Sebastian, Enemies to Lovers, Slow Burn, Fluff, Smut, Angst, AU - College/University, Drug Abuse, Toxic Relationships]

Seb is a moody painting major whose only interest, besides art and hanging out with his favorite lesbian Leah, is finding new and interesting ways to escape sobriety. Sam is a cheerful photography major whose chatty demeanor has earned him many friends, through the years, and even more people who try to take advantage of his kindness. ...And they were roommates!

MORE, ENOUGH — kinkratonthestreets

[Sam/Sebastian, Domestic Fluff, Smut, Angst, Established Relationship, Weight Gain, Feedism, Belly Kink, Body Worship, Past Suicide Attempt]

Married life has been treating Sam and Sebastian well: they’re settling into the city, their careers are growing, and Sam’s made a lot of progress learning to cook real food for the two of them (as Sebastian can attest). They’ve got a good thing going. But when Sam gets back from going on tour, Sebastian’s looking exhausted and run-down, and Sam can tell he’s lost weight. What if he’s getting bad again?

IF I FELL — darningdreams

[Elliott/Sebastian, Future Fic, Angst, Slice of Life, Awkward Romance, Family Fluff, Happy Ending]

Ten years ago, someone came to fix up the old farm outside Pelican Town. She ran around handing out presents, attending festivals, and flirting with whomever seemed interested… which was most decidedly not Sebastian. He had Sam, after all, and the perfect pairing of sun and moon moved to Zuzu City not long after the farmer married the eccentric writer who lived on the beach. Now, Sebastian is making ends meet working at a coffee shop near the university district, thoroughly jaded by life and love. He only goes home for holidays when he knows Maru and his ex aren’t going to be there. The old farm sits empty again, re-abandoned after a few years. Sometimes he wonders what happened to the family that formed there as he drives back to his depressingly tiny apartment in Zuzu City. He never expected he’d actually find out, or find himself falling in love again.

IT SMELLS LIKE YOU — HarmlessGhosty

[Elliott/Female Reader, Fluff, Storms, Cuddling & Snuggling, Pining, First Kiss, Power Outage, Emotional Hurt/Comfort]

When a tropical storm rolls through Pelican Town, it knocks out the power to every building, including Elliott’s cabin…though he only had one or two light switches in the first place. Problem is, the farmer had been visiting to ensure that he was set for the storm just before it hit. She’s stuck with him while it passes overnight, and she’s terrified of the dark. It’s up to Elliott to find ways to comfort her without stepping over any lines. He needs to be a gentleman. It’s what she deserves.
