‘ELLIOTT WHISPERS A SWEET SECRET INTO YOUR EAR.’
SHE/HER | 8TEEN | STARDEW VALLEY
MASTERLIST / TOS / INBOX / AO3
— 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. ✌︎︎
graphic by @createcore, thanks so much!

K so I was watching Modern Family and got to this scene and thought it would fit Elliott pretty well

JANUARY 2025 FIC RECOMMENDATIONS — STARDEW VALLEY
NOTES: This is something I’ve wanted to do for a while and with it being a new year, I thought this was the perfect opportunity to start! I’ve been doing something similar on Spotify for the past 5 years now where every month, I make a playlist that features all the songs I listened to the most in that month. I’ve also been inspired by @stardewfanficwriters and the monthly rec lists they post! Includes direct links to both the fics and authors’ profiles.
YOU REALLY GOT ME — softwisp, @realmalewife
[Sam/Sebastian, Friends to Lovers, Masturbation, Drug Use, Anal Sex, Voice Actor Sebastian]
Sam has started losing his mind recently. He can’t tell what exactly it is, the shift in weather.. the time of year. Even the slightest breeze sets his skin aflame. It has nothing to do with his best friend. Even if his dark eyes and plump lips swarm his thoughts and dreams. He’s been lying awake at night, in a cold sweat, unable to sleep. His days start to blur together, he’s not acting like himself. He doesn’t know what he’s doing. He needs to fix it. Maybe something online can help?
TEAR AWAY FROM THEIR SPINES — avidsim

MY FAVORITE STARDEW VALLEY FICS — PART 1
NOTES: This is part 1 of what I’m sure will be a lot more lists of my favorites! Some of these fics have been included in my monthly recommendations. I’m literally always reading something if I’m not actually playing the game. But how do I tell people that I am an avid reader, just not in the traditional sense?

LOVE FROM THE OTHER SIDE — changeishard, @changeishard
[Elliott/Penny, Angst, Fluff, Smut, Romance, AU - Gods and Goddesses, Inspired by Ancient Greek Religion & Lore]
Sam was desperate. He knew his band, Goblin Destroyer, was good, but they haven't been able to get it off the ground yet. They had quit their day jobs to focus on this, and Sam felt like it was his responsibility to make them famous. So he would make a deal. He could part with his soul. It wasn't a huge price to pay for their success. Sam deserved it. Seb and Abby deserved it, too. But the devil wasn't interested in his soul. He wanted Sam's wife. Or, an AU where Elliott is a God who takes Penny to his realm as part of Sam's bargain.

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.

To make matters worse, Abigail’s been hanging out with the one person Seb hates the most- the warm, talkative, and brash Sam.

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.

*intentionally going against my rules will result in you being ignored and/or blocked*
I think we need to start drawing the villagers in the least canonical way possible. Harvey as a gang member who vapes. Penny as a raging alcoholic. Elliott as one of those annoying inconsiderate TikTok boys. Shane as the most kind and chivalrous gentleman.
You know, something along those lines
THIS THIS THIS THIS THIIIIIIISSSS ^^
For @creatingblackcharacters Black History Month challenge, I decided to draw Demetrius and Maru from Stardew Valley, and focus on Demetrius being a good dad ♡ Here he is encouraging a young Maru to build her love of science!
Demetrius gets a lot of hate from the online fandom, and I think that's stupid and unfair. He has flaws, sure, but so do all the other characters. Every single human being who has ever lived has good and bad traits, good and bad days. It's not fair for Black gamers to have such limited representation in the first place, and then for fans to focus only on the flaws of the Black characters who do exist when everybody else gets the benefit of the doubt makes it even more wrong.
With this piece I want to tell my Black audience that it's an honor to learn by your side as a scientist. It's an honor to learn by your side as a human! As an organism! As this strange collection of cells we all find ourselves as on this insignificant speck hurtling through the vacuum of space at incomprehensible speeds. I'm glad to be human with you, bumps and all.
@violentbirds @bowlingalleycarpet maybe you guys would like to participate in this challenge too?
