MARCH & APRIL 2025 FIC RECOMMENDATIONS — STARDEW VALLEY
NOTES: I barely read anything in March so I decided to combine both months. Tryna get into rarepairs more but I keep going back to Sambastian 😔 Also, please let me know if you’d rather me not @ you if I did!
USE — LamplightEyes, @lamplighteyes
[Sam/Shane, Drug Use, Alcohol Abuse, Internalized Homophobia, Referenced Self-Harm, Suicidal Thoughts]
Samson. Sweet Sam. Perpetual doormat. Certified ray of sunshine. People pleaser extraordinaire. Kind and patient and gentle to a fault. And it was exactly what would get him hurt.
WHEN IN ROME — amalgamates
[Sebastian/Sam, Friends to Lovers, Slow Burn, Eventual Smut & Romance, Angst, Drug Use, Possibly Unrequited Love]
“Seb.” He'd been caught. Sebastian turned his head to face the source of the voice, blood frozen in his veins. “We couldn't change your mind, huh?” Sam asked with a warm, tired smile. “No.” Sebastian looked away, unable to stomach the guilt Sam's expression stirred up within him. “Sorry.” “Okay,” Sam replied, breezy as ever. “Then I'm coming with you.”
TROUBLESHOOTING — greatdistractions
[Elliott/Sebastian, Mystery, Angst with a Happy Ending, Stalking, Death Threats, not as heavy as tags make it seem]
Elliott's first book is about to come out! He should be celebrating, not worrying about the anonymous stranger sending him death threats. Cybersecurity is outside of Sebastian's usual work, but he can't just let the poor guy suffer. There has to be something he can do.
TIME AFTER TIME — Annetastic, @annetastic1981a
[Sebastian/Sam, Friends to Lovers, Aged Up Character(s), Eventual Smut, Infidelity, Divorce, Unplanned Pregnancy]
Sebastian has been in love with Sam for years, but life has conspired against him pursuing a relationship with his best friend. One day Sam calls him in the midst of a divorce and Sebastian offers him a place to stay. And they were roommates...
YOU GOT ME, TOO — softwisp, @realmalewife
[Sebastian/Sam, Sequel, Smut, Sex Work, Kink Discovery, Established Relationship, Dom/Sub Undertones, Voice Acting]
Sam makes a pathetic noise that sounds close to a whimper, and his words jumble together in a string, “Whatdidyoumeanbylivecollabs?”
BIG DEAL — fluffy_waffle
[Alex/Shane, Getting Together, Kink Discovery, Feeding Kink, Slow Burn, Secret Relationship, Implied Homophobia, Insecurity]
Alex and Shane aren’t dating — they just live in a small town and there’s not much else to do over the winter. And Shane is totally unloveable, obviously. And Alex just wants to experiment with guys, especially one who’s a hundred pounds heavier than he is. So they’re definitely not dating, and it’s definitely not a big deal.
What's cool about the Stardew fandom is that when some people interpret the characters' birthdays to actual months, some people think the dates line up differently than others, so we get to celebrate their birthday's twice and that's pretty awesome
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
[Sam/Sebastian, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Prostitution, Implied Sexual Content]

[Sam/Female Reader & Kent/Female Reader, Smut, Rough Sex, Daddy Kink, Vaginal & Oral Sex, Free Use]
Sam invites himself and Kent over to your house for dinner one night, seemingly an opportunity to get to know your boyfriend’s father better after his recent arrival to town. Things take a turn when you try to give Kent some ideas to relax, Sam having his own thoughts on the subject when he offers you up as a solution. Only under his supervision, of course.

THERE WILL BE ANOTHER MOMENT WE’LL MEET AGAIN… — Anonymous
[Sam/Sebastian, Implied/Referenced Suicide, Angst, Hurt/No Comfort, Suicide Notes (Voicemail), Ambiguous/Open Ending]
A part of Sam knows it's unrealistic to hope. To think he's just overreacting, that when he gets to his house, Sebastian will be curled up in bed, that Sam will yell at him for making him worry, that at least he'd be okay. But he knows better. alt; Sam isn't too worried when Sebastian disappears in the middle of the Stardew Valley Fair, until he realizes he really, really should be.
PERFECTLY ANNOYING — Annetastic, @annetastic1981a
[Sam/Sebastian, Smut, Love Confessions, Blowjobs, Consensual Sex, Sebastian's Slutty Frog PJs]

[Sam/Sebastian, Smut, Fluff, Friends to Lovers, Mild Hurt/Comfort, Love Confessions, Mutual Pining]
Sam and Sebastian's friendship is the most important thing in the world to them. For years they've skated this line, neither willing to ruin what they have in case the other doesn't feel the same.
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.
YOU REALLY GOT ME — softwisp, @realmalewife
[Sam/Sebastian, Friends to Lovers, Masturbation, Drug Use, Anal Sex, Voice Actor Sebastian]

IN YOUR EYES — Mouse_213, @the-mouse-wife
[Sam/Sebastian, Enemies to Lovers, Sex Worker Sebastian, Slow Burn, Hurt/Comfort, Dom/Sub, Kinky, Porn With Feelings]
Sebastian is a spiky, cold loner who dislikes 99% of the people he meets. With the exception of his best friend Abigail, Seb doesn’t seem to care much at all about his peers. 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.
CONTRAST & COLOR — Mouse_213, @the-mouse-wife
[Sam/Sebastian, Enemies to Lovers, Slow Burn, Fluff, Smut, Angst, AU - College/University, Drug Abuse, Toxic Relationships]

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.

[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.
— PLEASE GO SUPPORT THESE AUTHORS!
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
