So, there is a mod that adds rival heart events to the game. They build up over time as you get hearts with both characters, there is never any point where you are locked out of a relationship, and you have to specifically opt into the married version in the menu. Anyway, I bring it up because one of the parings they add is Hayley/Leah. I was with you, that ship seemed kinda random. I gotta tell you ... Mod author kinda cooked with that one. They bonded over art in the forest like you mentioned, but Leah ran away from the life Hayley thinks she wants. Through the relationship, Leah acts as a grounding force for Hayley, lets her see the beauty in nature and the arts, encourages her to explore her passions and come to love the Valley for what it is. Im just saying, way cuter than I expected. Bumps that ship *way* up for me.

Sadly due to some other mods not updating for 1.6 it's missing some features, most noticeably the houses that the married couples would move into after the wedding. Bit of a shame, that, but the events are cute so whatever. Here's a list of all ships that have events, there's two tiers; dating where they have fun cute events that might lead to something more, and married where they tie the knot and live together now. There are many ships that have dating events that do not move into marriage.

I vehemently deny the notion that Abigail would be the healer when playing Solarian Chronicles! She has a sword, she is the only villager other than Kent with blood on her hands, and she puts on a knights armor in Emily's eight heart event! When they play together she is the warrior without a doubt. Let me ask you this, if this game is better with three people, why isn't Abigail there playing with them? I'd argue that they are intentionally excluding her. Sam likes to play the warrior, but there is no way Abigail ain't gonna snatch up the warrior the instant she can. And Sam is stuck playing the healer. And since Sebastian and Sam are closer friends, they are excluding Abigail because Sam wants to be the warrior. If Abigail was there I bet she'd absolutely be the warrior.

For all of Sam's immaturity the one place he towers over everyone else is that he is absolutely the best dad ever. I can't believe you never brought this up, Penny wants to have kids so bad.

So Ive been thinking about this comment since I read it, and after sleeping on it - I feel like being a quality parent/ having a shared desire to have kids is still not what would make a break a relationship... I do feel like Fiona is still right in her way that they would either learn from each other and grow, or stay in their early heart events and stay how they are. As a mom myself, I don't believe kids would change that. I feel like we all know that young in love couple that individually are great parents, but have become extremely toxic towards each other. Maybe Sam is the good cop, fun dad and Penny feels like she does all the house work and then has to also be the bad cop to their kids if she is more serious and focuses on their education/homework. It's sort of the same sentiment of whats said of coming into a lot of money, that having more money just magnifies a person. Having kids would bring their unresolved issues to the front and magnify it in their parenting style. OR they both grow, become amazing, and have a beautiful little family....>.> then we could have a fan fic of how the mother-in-laws interact with each other lol I feel like there could be some toxic insecurities projected on the young couple from both Pam and Jodi. Kent would just grow old and turn into George, but with more bombs lol Not saying anyone is right or wrong, the joy of fiction is adding to the conversation 🥰

Plus I feel like if they got together Harvey would want to spend all of his time doting on Elliott. Making sure he's eating and taking breaks and getting enough water, etc. And Elliott would write all these amazing romantic adventures about Harvey being the best pilot and traveling the world together and it'd make Harvey so happy.

I’m tossing around an idea where Sam was sent away to some kind of boarding school as a kid, and doesn’t see Sebastian for years until they finally reunite and Sebastian realizes that Sam got hot, but also religiously traumatized lol. I think there are ways to add conflict to their relationship that aren’t just “I don’t wanna ruin the friendship,” but the relationship is so easy and makes so much sense that I don’t think a lot of people are thinking that far with it.

tbh I like to imagine Elliot and Leah as siblings. the hair aside, they both have that creative spirit & off-the-beaten-track lifestyle. I like to imagine they went on some family holidays to the valley as kids and each decided it was the perfect place for their art. maybe that support being there was even a factor in Leah moving there after her breakup. plus the way they hang out feels so casual in a way that some of the other pseudocanon pairings don't? it just clicks like that for me
@xoltacueponiАй бұрын
when i first started playing stardew valley, i thought penny and elliot were the "canon pairings" and i was SHOCKED that penny was actually with sam... listen, i will go to bat for them, ok, they're both romantics and enjoy literature (penny always attends the reading of his book and always stays until the end no matter the genre), day dreamers. academics. underappreciated. also it's cute :c the other ship i will die on a hill for is shane/hailey......my two blorbos
@platinumg.861428 күн бұрын
This would be really cute and sweet. Both give me wifes vibes XD. Much better than Sam because he gives vibes that he can be really lazy if he can have someone doing the house stuff for him.

@seiinicoАй бұрын
I know it doesn't have nearly enough fics to make the list, but after I saw Sam and Elliott say hello to each other on their way to the library, I looked for fanfics and read Literary Pursuits by mercymain and ohsocyanide and it changed my bran chemistry forever. Now the ship is my second fave after Alex/Sebastian.

I dont read fanfic but the other day i was thinking of some stardew valley pairs and I came up with a few: - ellliot/harvey: obviously this one was thought of before but I love that Elliot is desperate to romance and Harvey is desperate to be romanced. - Leah/Emily: woodsy wives - sam/maru: classic "best friend's sibling", as well as smart girl, dumb boy. Demetrius would be fine with him coming over since he's just Seb's friend.
@helloofthebeachАй бұрын
I think Elliot/Shane would have a very natural dynamic! They're both people who are trying to understand the world, on the outside looking in (if for different reasons), in a way that's pretty unique in the Valley. Elliot isn't going to be bothered by Shane's negativity and I think he'd earn Shane's respect the same way Emily and the player did, through kindness and persistent interest. Here's a pitch: Elliot, a few months into his residency, is fascinated by Shane because he projects a pathos that stands out in the idyllic valley. Someone caring about his life is really good for Shane at first, but eventually he realizes that Elliot is inadvertently and unintentionally objectifying him as a story, and Elliot comes to a realization that understanding somebody isn't the same as knowing them, which is, itself, a more powerful source of inspiration for him than anything he might have mined from Shane's life, and the two can finally have a proper relationship (friends or otherwise) as people. Also, seeing Emily/Clint hiding at the bottom of the list made me do the human version of a cat folding its ears back and yodeling.

I always wondered why harvey/penny and sam/maru weren’t the “cannon” pairings. First of all the age difference problem would be solved. Secondly with harvey/penny you could have the dynamic of her breaking out of being the caretaker as he would be stable and sam/maru could have a my brothers best friend dynamic.

I read a really good Sam x Sebastian fanfic where they both had feelings for each other, but Sam didn't fully realise he had said feelings, and he had quite a bit of internalized homophobia because of Kent telling him things when he was a kid. And when Sebastian confessed his feelings to Sam, he was disgusted at first before taking time apart and realising he felt the same.

ok so idea for alex/elliott (can be platonic or romantic) so they meet at the beach. at first they they just say hi to one another but later they start having short conversations. At one point Elliott sees Alex with his music box and they sit together and just talk. Elliott invites Alex to his cabin, they talk some more and Alex comments on all the books. Elliott offers to lend one to him, but Alex confesses that he’s not a good reader and probably wont get it, but Elliott insists. So they form a little book club where they meet up, have tea and talk about books. Elliott is really impressed by Alex efforts and persistence, while Alex is grateful that finally someone listens to him and doesnt berate him if he gets something wrong. Personally i hc that while Elliott is a great writer, but he often tries to use complex words and metaphors so only some people get it. After meeting Alex he tries to simplify his works for him. Elliott finds that its much more enjoyable and faster to write that way bc he can just write what he thinks and not agonise over every little detail. His works get more popular because they get more accessible.
