Hey Soooooooo My Husband And I Are Moving Soon And Could Really Use Some Help. I Will Gladly Draw For

I find it kind of funny that Shane is labelled the "i can fix him" romance of sdv but...he really isn't. You, the player, actually do very little in terms of "fixing" him. You watch him have a few breakdowns, and you intervene when he's drunk on the cliffs, but...he's the one who decides to start going to therapy. He's the one who decides to quit drinking. These are not things that you ever encourage him to do. You can headcanon certain interactions all you want, but this isn't like "the player chooses the genre of Elliott's future book." You have no impact on whether or not Shane cleans up his life. You support him at a few key moments, but the desire to change and be better comes from Shane, not the player.

You don't fix him. He fixes himself.

Here is a reminder:

It’s okay to ask for help. You don’t have to do everything by yourself. Lean on your support system. Don’t let yourself drown in your pride.

You don’t have to do this alone anymore.

What should I draw tomorrow? Anything?

Yearning is not beautiful in the way you think it is. It’s not as poetic as the songwriters make it feel. It’s painful. It’s a knife deep in your soul that twists every time you think about them. It hurts in the same way looking through an old photo album hurts. It is beautiful and it is poetic, and it will destroy you.

Boom. It’s cat jmart.
